Welcome in, ladies and gentlemen. Episode 74 MJ 38 show Co-hosts. Host Justin Matthew. Hopefully your life is going beautifully. If not, we're going to make it better. Regardless, we're here for you. I'm here for it. Hopefully, you're here for it, too. We're in this thought tank. This think tank, this thought pool present for it. It's a hot tub right now. It's a hot tub. It's a vibe hot tub. It's just feels good. Hot to man. Yeah. Vibe to hot tub does feel good, right? All the time. It's like therapeutic. I didn't think you were. Didn't your mom get, like, a discount on a hot tub for, like, medical reasons? Yeah, right. Yeah. What's up with that? Because it just feels that good. Or helps with, like, your muscle spasms or. I guess if you like your recovery through your insurance, if you can get your doctor to recommend that a hot tub would be like, good for you somewhere. And other than like, the insurance will help, like cover some of that. Yeah, yeah, it felt like a fit. That's what we're doing. That's a fitness. That's something that's. Hey, I don't know. Do you get the stamp I don't know who is that on you or the doctor at that point, I don't know who approved it from the insurance. That on that guy? I'm not sure. Yeah. I wonder if he can get, like, medically prescribed massages or discounts on massages, because that shit's definitely helps here. You know, your whole life probably depends on how good your insurance is, right? Yeah. Can you finesse for me Mr. Insurance man. I saw a rub. It was like apply for Medicare. It works for a lifetime fitness. I was like what. Oh yeah. Look at your gym memberships and stuff too dude. Yeah. Lifetime fitness for like, freezes. Hell yeah. It's like that means it's for the really rich and the really poor. So if you can afford it or you definitely can't, you can get in there. Get in there. That's cool. Come on, give me the gold, baby. It was definitely a thing. A gold's, but a call to action. Up the other up in the front end. Like, comment. Subscribe. Subscribe to it. Subscribe will do it. Surprise! Subscribe! Subscribe. Sunrise. Yeah. Pause. We'll wait for your. So we're going to drag the mouse down. It takes one click. Click one second. It helps a lot. It means a lot. It goes so far. I didn't really know how much it meant. You know, until we're on the other side. You. Most of the time you're just the consumer of social media and YouTube. You know, for the most part. But once you become a like a proprietor or become one of the suppliers of the of the media, it's like, oh, sure, that that matters. Yes. And it's like just one little click. You know how many things that you watch that you don't subscribe to? So many of them, pretty much all of it. Pretty much everything. I guess I, I remember having that thought and then I subscribe to, like, Jordan Peterson and to like Jeff Nippert and a couple other, like, fitness influencers. And then now I've subscribed to a couple of different, like, podcasters that like, want to support, you know what I'm saying? Yeah, it's a it's more than just like watching. They're consuming the content is one thing, but then like subscribing, it's like such a small additional step. Yeah, but it's like it's like the bottom line for them. You know, it is their bottom line. It's like it's like the revenue. Yeah. It's be profitable. We're not even asking you to buy merch right now. In this moment, all we're asking for is like to. We got much to buy. Yeah. Yeah. At this moment. Yeah. You go to subscribe. It's just free. That's what rises. It's almost like an evaluation of your company. It's like, well, how many subscribers you have? 100%. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, that's the new that's the new like metric to to determine whether or not something is worth to the social media or I guess it used to be like marketing dollars were spent. So you could like, get viewers watching your commercial, or you would go to a popular channel that had a lot of people watching that channel, and then that would determine how much money you would be able to pay, that we'd be willing to pay them to give advertisement on there. And now it's like subscribers are keen followers, I guess. And also on top of that, like engagement, because you can have a whole bunch of followers. And I'm saying, how much do I subscribe for a second question? First question is how many do you got? Yeah. How many are active or how many are active and engaging actively, total, continually on your shit. But 800,000 subscribers will get you on a lot of doors big time. Yeah, that'll open up some shit for you. That was the thing because we were in the restaurant industry, and that was the thing that because we opened a new restaurant and then also my wife was working, she opened a new restaurant. He dropped the wife. That was hard. That's the one thing that's definitely changed in the last month or so. Like that's hard. Yeah. That was that's a different slip in it. Yeah, it's a different I don't mean to derail you, but like they were when you're opening a new restaurant, one one Avenue that people think about as far as how do we bring more people in here is, influencers and people who have, like, channels who are specifically there's plenty in San Antonio and plenty across every city, every major city. So, like, how many people does this person listen to if I get this, if I pay this person X amount of dollars and they do a post about my restaurant and they come in, they get we give them a free meal or whatever, you know what I'm saying? Because they had they had like an influencer night. You know, you do like a soft opening for like your friends and family. And then they had like an influencer night. Yeah, I remember that right. Yeah. I'm not sure if we did one at a at our spot. I know we did at friends and family and like a couple of soft openings to get ready for the grand opening. I know at a previous employers, I'm pretty sure after you guys left, they did a thing called, like, they would just once a week invite, influencer in to have a meal on the house. Just, same thing, you know what I'm saying? Yeah. Get the get the name out there. Yeah. It's almost like inviting a food critic. Exactly right. Yeah. Yeah. I guess you do that with like publications for news sources or whatever. Dead. Fucking dead. Dude. When I grew, I, I curse. I'm sorry. This is like a rated-r movie that you show your kids, like it's cool. Like, whatever. Don't curse at home. Kids. Like what? Young kids are no better. Curse outside with your friends when no one's around. Okay. Uses sparingly. Yeah, yeah. It's the salt and pepper. I remember one dialog that was like a 2 or 3 day span when I was a kid, where I was just fucking cursing as much as possible. How old were you? I had to be, like, 8 or 9. How old were you when you started cursing? Like, like consistently as a child or maybe as a teenager? Some people, some Mormons, but I never cuss. Yeah, I'd say probably like 16, 17 when it became, like, everyday normal vernacular. Yeah. So listening to like, a ton of Childish Gambino, that's another thing. Music big time is a big time influence. Yeah. Pop culture. What movies and media and music are you watching and consuming that's definitely going to influence you 100 how you talk 100%. Yeah, I stepped into this place where like, I was like, aggressively forging my own identity, because I was, like, uncool for a span of time because I was fat, more or less. That's the only thing I put my finger on. I was pretty, I thought I was funny, I thought I was, well, rad for a kid, like, cool to hang out with, but not popular kid. And then. Well, also, I just moved around so much that kind of places, that dynamics. Yeah, it's hard to maintain, but I worked out super hard one summer and then I came back, like ready to rock two days. And then everybody was so nice to me, but I was like, come to my table, man. And I was like, the fuck's going on here? And then I kind of got like, stuck in this lane of, like, I'm going to be me. I don't care what you're doing. I'm listening to Childish Gambino. I don't play so much basketball. I can't walk around normal when I go places. Okay? And then, like, I think part of that was also me, like, cursing a little more, you know what I'm saying? Okay. Kind of like, embracing my own lexicon for vocabulary of words. And I included cuss words in those, but as well, I'm always real respectful around like, parents and teachers. And yeah, that's the thing. You gotta definitely be able to have the two masks, you know? Yeah, my dad's a pastor, you know? So like at church. Hello, Mrs. Goodson, it's good to see you. Definitely. What do they call that? Code switching. Yeah, something like that. Right? Yeah, yeah, it was funny because we had we went to I think it was just yesterday. It was either yesterday or, Saturday. I'm pretty sure it was one of those two days, but we went to go get, frozen yogurt. Oh, this brings us to another topic. Two things on this. On this story. We also get frozen yogurt right next to the frozen yogurt spot. There's like a, it's like a garden or whatever for, like, give a fun and exactly, exactly where we went. Really? Yeah. Guys, I finally got a divorce. Yeah, I was like, what the. Yeah. That's great. You know? And then the wife says another similar joke, but then our daughter, she's just turned 12 and she's like, wants to get into the game, wants to see, wants to contribute to the conversation. A funny, funny word play. Yeah. And then we were both just like, no. No. Shut that down. That's funny. Not cool. When you first asked me, when did I start using curse words, my brain went here. But then I was. But more about whoa, whoa, a little. Whoa whoa whoa whoa. That's a three thoughts. I have sex in my mind and I can't get them off the mouth. Orgasm. Where I initially went with my brain was I was 12 years old ish right there, like 13. And I remember asking my dad and my stepmom, like, why can't I just curse what's, Yeah. Like, what's stopping us from just using words like that? Like, is jackass a bad word? It's a donkey, right? Right. Then they were like, well, you just use donkey. No one really says like, well, how often do you even use the word donkey? Ever? You're not gonna call them jackass. Can't listen to what's in Shrek. Yeah, I it right. So it's like it's not it. It's not really the right word to use. But I guess if you're talking about someone being an idiot and you want to call them a jackass, they're acting foolish, right? Like, the difference is, like, one's a lot more aggressive than the other one, and there's not a whole lot of use for just being extra aggressive for no reason. Right? But like, nothing is stopping you and you don't. And you should never let someone my dad's like, you should never let someone tell you what you can't. You can't say. Freedom of speech, baby. First amendment right? My dad's a big fucking Constitution guy. But what's the Bill of rights amendments? Yeah, I think the Bill of rights is the first ten amendments. I totally so yeah, my dad was big on, like, know your rights. Could you say whatever you want? Freedom of speech. That's number one. Right? But then, like, people will judge you negatively. Like, we'll get mad at you if you don't like, have a proper reflection of how we're raising you. You know, like, if we're telling you, you should be more like this and you're just going off like this all the time. It's gonna be frustrating for us. So has, like, negative impacts on your relationships with people if you're not careful with how you use them. And then I remember, like, digesting that, you know what I'm saying? When I was like, we're driving in a maroon Santa Fe to, Gander Mountain. Nice. I can remember vividly recall. Yeah, with you. And you're like, why can I cuss? Yeah, totally. Well, why don't we just customers as a best people, you can say anything you want, anytime you want, right? Yeah. That was my question. Yeah. Like like if I want to call someone like an asshole, you know, like, would that make you guys like, man to be mean? Yeah, totally. Like, what's the difference? Like, well, why do you have to have a safety on this gun? Yeah, yeah. Sometimes I just want to let it fly. And what was this was the answer or like the response. It's just like it'll have it'll have negative impacts on your perception of you. Okay. If you're like relationships with people. Is that true? I think so a little bit right a little bit. Yeah. Yeah. Especially I guess the age thing is another factor that plays into if you like, if there's like a 10 to 12 year old like cousin up a storm, you're like, whoa, kid. Yeah. Take it easy, Papa. Yeah. Take it easy, man. Yeah. Things that come from. Why am I telling like you to take it easy? Even if you're like an adult. Even if, like, in your 20s and 30s and you're, like, cussing a lot. Yeah, it's like F-bomb in every sentence. I was trying to ask those questions. I don't even know how to ask. But you see what I'm saying? There's something there, you know? Yeah. Why do why is that annoying? It is. Or. Yeah definitely plays into the perception of you know trying to explore the song a little bit. Yeah. What's why. Oh I think any kind of improper behavior is annoying. Definitely for parents. Right. But that was definitely also like it's in the Bible to respect your parents. So we don't want you to talk like that. So that's like one reason why not to do it whenever you want. And then we then like kept going further like why is that his value. No, he's not putting on me. You know what I'm saying. I think it's distasteful. Yeah. We don't like things that are distasteful or something like that. I think I've, I've likened it to, I use the metaphor of like it's salt and pepper, you know, it's like you don't want to over season your steak or over and season your food just too salty, totally in the, in the food salad that we're all spewing here. And like we all, we all share each other's food salad whenever we're talking or listening to someone talk, it's like, oh, this guy's this is way too salty, bro. This is way too much paprika in his mouth. Yeah. Yeah, definitely. Yeah. I think that's probably it more than anything is it's just like, it's like, unpleasant to be around. And those words have more weight to them or something like what else is unpleasant to be around that we don't like. In the same vein it sounds being like too loud maybe. Yeah, we do that sometimes. I just know because we just get carried away. We're just laughing our asses off. I forget it's like other conversations going on. But Well yeah, I've too loud a little bit or like just social miscue or social faux pas. Yeah, totally. A lot of it I think about with like people that deserve respect, like if there was like, you know, the owner of wherever you work walks in and you just, like, dap him up like he's a homeboy, that's gonna be like a social miscue that's distasteful, you know, like the president of your company. Yeah. It's like, what's that, a dog or something? I cringed, this ambassador stereo talking to us again? Yeah, one of the one of the owners of the company. Guess this is a is it a respect thing? You can take a break. No, it's just, I called our homie earlier, and then he was at work. I assume so, but I catch him on lunch, so I'm just going to say. Hey, bro, is it cool if I, call you later and pod and we'll call you back, hoping to catch you on lunch. Hope you have an awesome Monday. But. Oh, bang. Okay, cool. That works by bezels. That was one one half of the story. Pull to the frozen yogurt. Spot the fur. It's the play on words. It's like, don't do that. Well. Also like why did you you guys got turned off pretty mean. Yeah. You know, it was funny because we were like heightened, like a laughing energy, you know, heightened vibration of, like having a good time, whatever. Messing around, joking around. That's like, you can't talk like that. You haven't earned the access. The joke like that. Not in front of us. The phone, your friends. I guess. Do you think part of for wading into those waters is her wanting to, like, understand because she just had a birthday. So, like, maybe she's, like, getting older and she's, like, trying to take some of the governors off the car. She's, like, my lot into third gear. Not in this car, not while I'm here, girl. Yeah. Wear that seatbelt. Yeah, I think we all have to adjust, like speeding for no reason. That's that's something that will be like. Why are you doing that? You know what I'm saying? Yeah. I was driving recklessly. I saw a guy. We're heading back from Austin, and it was two guys. There were homies, I'm assuming, because they were like right next to each other, but one after the other. Immediately we were going on, 183 trying to get to to it or to 35. So it was like highways, highway speeds were all going like 70, 80 roughly. But then, yeah, these motorcycle gentlemen were just weaving, bobbing and weaving like Mayweather and that shit, this is going 85, 95, just going quick. I was like, oh, that's that's unfair and unnecessary in my opinion. Like I just yeah, that's a little that's a little much. It's a little reckless. A lot of people die on motorcycles every year. Yeah. That's not even like distasteful. I mean, it is distasteful, but like, especially on a motorcycle, bro, there's a little reckless car fatalities. Like one of the number one killers in America every year. Every year? Yeah. Do you know, it's like one of the most common ways, if not the most common way, you're going to die. Or like, potentially. I remember going on a trip to a lake with some of our homies, and I don't know, man, it was just fucking. But we used to convoy out to seven on seven tournaments when I was in high school. Yeah, carpool and shit. Yeah, we'd have like 7 or 8 cars for kids, you know what I'm saying? Yeah, that's a lot. There's probably like 20 kids going to maybe 4 or 5 cars for kids. And, you know, like my friend Ben fucking stick his ass out the window, dude. Yeah. Joe Biden, Moody's bear ass. Hilarious, bro. Hilarious. Like, I remember, one time I, how my homie take the wheel, I was driving, set it on cruise control, roll down the window, stuck my torso out, and then rode the boat. I was like, all right, click, click up on the click up on the cruise control. Go up like six times. And then I'll bet it's like speeding up this dumb right there. I was like, know for the bit for the bit, bro. We're all trying to make each other laugh, you know what I'm saying? Yeah, I was like 25. We're driving up to the lake and I go to hit the Or and then the homies, we get there and like, the fuck are you doing? Be careful on the highway, man. I was like, being hilarious. What are you doing? The bit pissed off. You guys aren't as funny as me. Like fucking you prude. Yeah, but then I was like, well, maybe I shouldn't. Shouldn't fucking row the boat anymore. I don't know, you know, they're like, concerned for your safety, I guess. Like funny until it's like concern. Yeah, right. No, I guess so. It made me. It feels like the same thing where it's just like there's. You can cross a line into distasteful, where it's like, now you're having negative returns on your freedom. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So what the fuck? There was a second leg to that fire. What the fuck? But, So. Yeah, but then we went to the frozen yogurt spot, and I'm not sure if it's all frozen yogurt spots are similar to this. And this is called orange Leaf. Yeah, right. Not orange theory. Orange. There is fitness. Orange leaf is frozen yogurt. Totally orange. Brown. Orange with orange leaf. And it's, I think most frozen yogurt spots follow this same sort of system where you go in and you get the cup, and then you fill it up with the shish, and then you go fill it up with the toppings and you weigh it. Then you pay for how much the weight is for the cup. Right? Yeah. So I think that's pretty common since I was like my mom and dad were taking me, you know. Okay. Yeah. Yes. I think that's the thing. And and then there was a, the optional the tip option on there. Okay. The tip option, most places have a tip option. Did you do all the work yourself. Yes. That's that's that's the thing. And then the wife I was like did you tip them. She's like yeah yeah. I was like, why what are you doing? Like he literally didn't do anything. But yeah, we had to go through all the flavors, look at all they had had to offer, and then pick our cups and then figure out what flavor combination we wanted. Then go to the the top line, fill up our toppings ourselves. And all he did was check us out. That's all he did was to check us out. Like like just collect tender and they just exchanged money for thing. That's when he gets his hourly pay for it for sure. Yeah. My he's already been paying for that. Yeah. It's like he literally didn't service us in any way whatsoever. I don't even think he greeted us on the way in. Did you guys throw away your own cups at the end? Take them home? Yeah. We didn't finish them at the spot. We ate for a little bit and then took them back to the house. That's the move? Yeah. For the movie later. Yeah, exactly. Exactly what we did. Watch and watch the movie here. You know, I recommend that even it because we serve obnoxiously large desserts. I'm always like, don't worry, you save half for the movie later. Put it in the fridge when you get home, turn on Netflix halfway through the movie chef's kiss. You remember us? Yep. That's like true. I'm not even doing a bit at that point. I'm like, this is genuine advice, my friend. And was like, this is this case. I'll taste better at midnight. Yeah, it does always, dude. Always. So yeah, I'm with you. Yeah. Do you tip it at those or I guess so that just brought the question to my mind of like, do you tip at those kind of spots? And then also another sub question that brought to my mind in that same from that same situation was like we're heading that way towards like everything like the optional tip menu. Yeah, at Starbucks and at every coffee place and pretty much everywhere. This is like an optional tip that I was gonna say. I run into it at coffee places more than anywhere else, pretty much every time. I always tip a dollar to Starbucks, you know, I'm not sure what for. At least they made your drink. You know, like they they prepared the whole thing for you. I don't want to be a 50 year old here, but, like, isn't that what they get paid for? Like, what the what the fuck they pay you guys for? But like, on some level, I guess I'm doing it for their honestly, for their attitude. Like, I'm just hoping that they're nice to me. So good karma. I don't want to have a negative interaction when I go places. I'm like, thanks for being cool. Here's a dollar. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I've been really balling before where I was like, here's $5, baby. I'm having a good day. Like, I don't know when people when people ask me for to donate to charity or like when I see a homeless person on the side of the road. Sometimes I'm thankful that they gave me the opportunity to bless them. Yeah. Hell yeah. And then like, because I know it's almost like a spiritual test. Like when I have, let's say I have like three,$5 bills in my wallet, but I also like have money in my bank account. And it's just like I see a guy. I feel the spiritual test, like I should give this guy one of my $5, but it's like a grading thing because on one level, it's like, I don't really want to interact with this almost person. Call me fucked up, but like that's pretty common. Yeah. Like they're not well for let's dig in there. No, it's a, it's a I think it's an unpredictability factor. Yes. You know, it's like when I walk by we're like walking by people passing like the shopping centers, like Marshalls or whatever, or you're in the mall and you're it's like walking by people is like, no, no second thought. But then you see a homeless person and it's like, I think there's a little factor of unpredictability in there. Yeah. They looks it's part of the presentation that makes it that makes it feel eerie. It makes it feel uncomfortable because like, usually their clothes are really tattered or they're really dirty, unkempt hair. And sometimes their behavior is really erratic. Like, maybe they've done drugs are on drugs. I'm on. Sure. Yeah, I was at the gas station today. I usually always give money, but this lady was too unpredictable. Oh, she's like, oh, no. She just gave me an audible swearing, like, like a fleece sweater. It's, like hot outside. Oh, gosh. So can you spare a dollar? And I was like, no, I had dollars to spare. Did I really? Did she just unpredictable though? I don't know, man. Yes. And sometimes you might be doing more harm than good, but you never know. I don't know, I think, Joe, this has mentioned this before is like I give him my I give him my $5. I give my $10, my $20. If you want to go blow it on blow, I'll give a fuck. I did my part. It's funny. It's true. For the most part, I usually I hardly ever don't do it if I have the dollars to give. And same thing with charities. I'm always even if I don't have money, I'm like, thanks for the opportunity for me to be like to do charity. Thank you for being here, asking for the charity. Like, I appreciate what you're doing, but not for me too. So then I try to think about that when I'm tipping somebody at Starbucks. I'm like, I'm just doing this guy kindness. And that's really for me, more than it is for him on some level in my store, because I'm never going to see his kindness go. But like, I can advance my spiritual wealth. I can advance my generosity, I can put good out in the world and hope it comes back. So I try to think about it that way, because if I don't, it's fucking annoying as an absolutely hey, I'm not. Yeah, people asking me for money when I'm walking in the gym. Sir, would you like to donate a backpack to kids? I guess I guess if you're going to put it on me, you know what I'm saying? So how many benefits of you donated, bro? Yeah, totally. Like I donated to this kid going to Ccbc camp like I was leaving church on Sunday. Just like the way I left, this guy had, like, set up a snack, stand there selling, like, Doritos and Ritz crackers and water bottles because this kid wanted to go to camp, like, oh, I like doing you like that, you know? But I do think it's like a little weird to ask someone for money. Just like in traffic. Yeah, it's a little weird just for the kids. It is a little strange, you know? It's weird. It's when. It's when it's for the kids. I always want to talk to the kid. Is that a fucked up thing? Like what? What? I'm like, who's going to camp? He's going to camp. I'm like, what's up, bro? Like. And the dirt keep cutting and I'm like, shut the fuck up, dude. I'll give him money to him, right? Yeah. You want to go to camp? Did you hear about camp? And I just wanted to, like, engage the kid. And I was like, yeah, that's selfish of me. I've done it before with, like, I see kids where they want to go to, football and go to Florida or something for a tournament or whatever. Exactly. Yeah. And I'm like, which one of you is like the the hoper? And then I'm like, how do you practice? Like, do you take it seriously? You trying to go somewhere like, do that. Like I want to give them like true encouragement. Then I'm like, they probably just want my money. They probably don't give a fuck about. It's more valuable the money. No, the the the motivation. That's what I'm thinking. Like, I want to say something to this kid like, hey, don't start, bro. Like, keep going, you know? Yeah, work hard like it's it's worth it. I needed to to reaffirm that within you. If I'm gonna give you my money, like something attached there. And then finally, this dad just, like, was asking me what, what do I work? Oh, I know these people. Do you know these people? And I was just like, yeah, man, I do. It's like, reengage the dad, you know what I'm saying? One of the thing about homeless people is, don't always like touching their hands when I give them the money. Do you ever think about that now? Because they're very dirty. That's just true. Like, I don't know when the last time I watched them was. Well, on average, what would you guess once a month, I that I would hope. How do they how would they do it. They gotta use some of that money where like Wendy's you know, they go inside to the store and go to the bathroom real quick. Yeah, I would hope so. If you were homeless, you'd wash your hands. Right? If I was almost like me personally. Yeah. If I was homeless, I would try to scrounge up some money to get, like, a gym membership. Yes, sir. Like I take a shower every day. Come on, come on, baby. So, same first thought, right? Kind of fitness, $10, ten bucks a month. I got a shower. I got a shower, and that's nice. And that just instantly gives me more credit. Like not credibility. But, you know, it takes away some of the some of the whatever the thing is that makes you want to take a wide berth around those people, like remove some of that. Yeah, totally. For sure. Yeah, I get it, I do. I think the problem with homelessness is it's probably like depression where things just get really hard to do. It's the yeah, it's a, it's it's way different than just not having money. It's it's a whole extra curricular of mental and psychological shit going on, bro. Totally, totally. I'm with you. So you're not in the mental state to want to wash your hands so it gives a fuck, right? You know? Sure. And it's just like you've ever been depressed. It's, like, hard to get out of bed, right? I was laying in bed. Yeah. I totally wanted to shit. Like looking at the pile of dirty clothes. Like I gotta do laundry. It's like they're probably looking at their hands like, oh, wash these fuckers. I don't even know, I don't know, I'm thinking that. But but the other thing, too, is if I give the guy the dollar and I'm like, but that hurts, I would hurt worse than just ignoring them properly. And then like, dude, if you fucking shake the dude's hand, it's like, I feel his spirit. Like this guy, like, acknowledged me. He, like, human connection gave a fuck. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, yeah, yeah, probably just a human connection. Like, oh, there's good people out here, you know what I'm saying? And so I fucking do it. From when? Last time it happened, I was like, I need Duramax in my fucking car. So I want to show you this guy. I said, I really do, but God damn it, I can't touch anything in my car now. My God, I'm going to the gym. I'm going straight to wash my hand. Right? So yeah, some of the shit I think about when I'm. It's awkward subject, bro. It's crazy. Yeah, it is super crazy. It's, it's it's jarring. As we mentioned before, you should be jarred by this. Yeah. Totally. Totally. Yeah, that's what it is. Scary, bro. It is. Dude. Like, I don't know, I used to think when we work downtown, I used to think about, like, oh, homelessness rehabilitation programs. Like, why don't they. Why why aren't they more prominent, you know? Yeah. See the same homeless person on the street for, like, a year and a half. Yeah, bro. You would walk the same route to the restaurant. Like for we worked there for like from March of 19 to like March of 20 for like an entire year. And I would see the same person like in the same streets, like the same like not even like mile radius. Like half mile radius, maybe. Totally. And they're like every day. Every day. Totally. It's like, fuck, man, is this what's going on? How has the story go? Or like, how do you what's going on here? The how do you get out of this hole? In my own mind, they make $200 and then they go to their flophouse, and then they spend 80 of it on drugs, and then they eat and they do the next thing they say, and they probably have a place they go to, like, relax at the end of the day, I'd imagine on some level. And then this is like going to work for them and then I'm doing the same thing, but we're doing the same thing, you know what I'm saying? But like, like the same way we had to leave downtown to go to somewhere better than we left there to go to somewhere better. It's like they need to do that too, but they're not doing that. And it's you got to save up a certain amount of money to break through those thresholds. You got to get fucking apartment money. And I'm saying, yeah. And even if there are, because I'm sure there are, I remember hearing about I think I was on a Joe Rogan, I think it was a guy who was doing like some sort of homeless rehabilitation in Austin. Yeah, I remember that one. I think there's a couple different of those in Austin, and I'm sure there's a couple of different of those in pretty much every major city across the United States. So then the question becomes, how do they if you are the homeless person, like, you're probably not. Maybe you are, but I don't know, maybe you're not actively seeking like going out to try to find like how do I get rehabilitated? Like how do I get better. So I'm sure a percentage of them are trying to get back on their feet, just like down on their luck. Some shit happened. Medical things, disability things, whatever. And then they do like climb their way back out and like start to fucking get a job or whatever. I guess those rehabilitate rehabilitation places are like they offer like, shelter and food, like a homeless shelter like that. Those are things, right? Yeah, yeah. I understand why people understand why that guy devotes his life to it. Because there's no answers. When you look around like, that guy was like, all right, well, I'm going to make one. And then he spends, like, his whole life just trying to rehabilitate those homeless people. Like shelters, I think, do the same thing. I think they're mostly volunteers, church groups. Like we got stuck at a bus stop outside a food kitchen in Austin one time, and it was kind of jarring as like a lot of homeless people getting ready for like the doors open up. Yeah. And like, yeah. I mean, thank God they give him a meal, you know? But I don't know how much to helping him, like, ultimately. Yeah. Right. It's like, I'm sure you're keeping him alive on food and rebellion. I'm some kind of resource, but it's like, not that's not rehabilitation, you know? Not long term solutions. No, no. And then they probably like therapy. They probably like mushrooms. They break big time. You know what I'm saying? They need a job. They need to have some discipline or responsibility to put in their life so that they have the opportunity to arise to that occasion. It's like if you can't even get an opportunity for responsibility, it's like you can't cultivate the the neuron firing stuff to like, get your life in order. Yeah, and life is hard, bro. It's fucking yeah. It's hard out here. Slapping no is like life is relentless is every day, man. You can't go out there and do some shit. Yeah, that's true, that's true. Homelessness is a fucking problem. Like you talk about something more like, yeah, it's a problem, bro. Like that's what I don't know, man. That's one of those things where I think as a human, if you get your shit together, you should try to find a way to help somehow. I mean, even if you're just helping by a six pack, I guess, like, I don't know. Yeah. Give him another day to fight. Give him another day to fight. Maybe it's going to take 300 days of fucking up before he that person breaks through and says, I don't want to fuck up anymore. It's like, at least help him get to another day of fucking up so he can get to that point. It's the final. Yeah, turn around point right. Leave turned over. Yeah, totally. The last thing you want to do is watch someone give up on their life completely. You know, maybe that $5 just gives them another fucking little bit of rope before they run out of it, you know? Yeah, yeah. One thing I've done for sure, or it's like, give me giving to a church is like or like donating like charity for sure is like a solid thing because I guess ideally those organizations who receive that money, whether it be a church or a like feeding, Feeding America or whatever the other organizations are again, like non-profits hopefully, hopefully. Yeah, hopefully they're doing some shit with that, like legitimately going out, seeking these people, giving them the resources and help and kind of helping them up or getting get them on a track. So hopefully that's what's going on. But another thing that I've done, like instead of giving to the church, it's like giving directly to and but not money though, like going and buying like, what you call it, like food or, like fast food gift cards or, you know what I'm saying? Like, because I guess that's that's another thought is like, if I give them this cash, like who, who knows what they gonna do with this cash? Like, if I give them a $15 Whataburger gift card, like, they gotta spend, it's at Water Burger. So, yeah, get some food and water over here. Totally use a bathroom. Whatever the fuck. Wash your hands. Totally. Yeah, I think Joe Rogan said before that he sees, he sees like a child after he had a kid. When he sees these people now, he sees a child that just didn't get an opportunity. And like, if they had had better parents, better situation, different life circumstances, they would have ended up there. And so, like, his heart kind of goes out to them in that sense. It's like, yeah, that's where I get weird. I'm like, how do I give you legitimate help? You know? Right. Right. Yeah, yeah. It's different is different. But yeah, it's it's rough and you just have to act real quick. Yeah. What do you were talking about earlier? The airfield cleared the airfield. Do you wax the strap? Do you shave your back? Give me another one. Okay. Give me another. Yes, a good trimming. A good trimming is necessary. I think you trim the brim. You got trim the bush. You gotta trim the bush a little bit. Yeah, I give it a little, you know, a little love a little. Manscaping. There we go. That's a good one. I just try to do my best. Caleb Presley right there. I had good timing. Was perfect, actually. Caleb, shout out, I love you. Yeah, man, that guy's hilarious. I went like two years without doing it. Damn, I don't have it, bro. It's a monsoon. I have a lagoons. That's a blue lagoon I like, you know, wash it is shit. You know what I'm saying? Of course. But I was just like, you know, I some of his partner preference. So, like, you know, you. Oh, yeah. Okay, okay. I see you're saying, you know, I'm saying I got directions. Directions. Yeah. You know recommendations. Sure. Exactly. You know, and so I, I took preferences into account as far as that went. I tried to like, you know, like get a nice edge up, but, you know, a little ball throw fade. Yeah. Say oh, damn, I'm afraid that you got so. Yes. Yeah. That's so funny. I remember Joe Rogan talking about like the porn industry giving like a giving. I think I forget the verbiage he uses, but he's like the porn industry gives or gave. Like the best take away from society is like the shaving of the pubic hair. It's like there was no PSA about it. There's no like health benefits per se. It was just like no one like went on TV and was like, this is a health epidemic. It's like it was just like a thing that we all did. And we all like it. Caught it caught in society and pop culture and pop culture. But, you know, saying the matter of, of human existence, only a thing that we do now. And whereas like in the 70s, the bush was the way the bush was the only way that was just that, how it was, I guess. Well, I got to that point. I went retro throwback. This is because I stopped thinking about it. That was the other thing that happened, like after a while, like I just didn't even think about it, bro. It takes time. It's annoying. Totally. It's a little dangerous. Totally. Yeah. There's some injury that can occur. Yeah. Be careful down there. Yeah. And then I don't know, it's like kind of like hit me in the face one time. Don't know. I think it was because I was like going to shave my armpit hair because it's. Yeah, but you ever. I've never touched that, you know, never, never trimmed up the armpit hair. You don't ever dip in the pit and have a did pit. You don't ever, I could get it's time. Time for brainstorming. I guess. Maybe I don't have, I guess I don't. It could be a hereditary thing as far as, like, your hair growth. Sure. Or hair loss or like, you know, because I guess some people just have, like, a crazy hairy back or crazy hairy chest. Totally. Or they lose their hair really early and like, oh, that's like hereditary pretty much. Definitely. You know, my dad's adopted, so I don't know where to look, you know. What the fuck's going on there? That. But you're right about, like, my arm hair is crazy, bro. You know what I'm saying? That's actually let me think of it was I was like, I pulled my watch up and I was like, God damn, boy. I was like, well, I don't really shave my arms at all. Like, whenever you move your arm, like, move your watch it like clips a little bit or like the snags on it. You pull it and it's like, oh, oh, that's a little pain. Yeah. My dad has a crazy hairy back, like, really fucking. We're making jokes about it when I was a kid all the time, you know what I'm saying? Like, you can fucking brush that shit, but I don't have the hair on my back at all. Me neither. Yeah, and I don't have, like, crazy Chester, actually. See all of it right here. Nothing crazy, you know? Yeah, I got a little bit. Yeah. Nothing crazy. No. It definitely as I like every three years it like, gets more diameter. Okay. So I'm like, I'm, I'm the best I've ever been in. The worst I'll ever be. You know? Right. Yes. But even when I was like probably 24, it was pretty like, was pretty small, pretty small amount of Chester. My arms go crazy and my pencil girl pretty, you know, trim worthy. Well, you turn the pits, I do, I do really? Yeah. You got to be careful because if you do like all of it, then you, like, feel like I was awkward. Kind of naked under there. Yeah. It feels like I don't know if she's straight on it. Yeah. Okay. I could see that leading to, like, some irritation. You know what I'm saying? Right? And if you get stubble on your armpit, that's like rubbing on the shirt. Yeah. So I really like, you know, razor bumps, you know, this is my job is to be honest with you guys. Let's go. Let's what the fuck we're here to do? I'll, like, brush it out and then try to take scissors and, like, do like a trim. You know what I'm saying? Okay. Wow. I also because I wear a lot of, Thanks. Yeah. I'm try to think about the stringers. Wife beaters. Yeah. Terrible name to call them that. Oh no. Oh that gets on. It must have been just a consistent thing that people saw. Like everything. It's like cops. It's like every domestic call, I guess. Or this guy's in a fucking white tank top from Haines. Oh, from fucking fruit of the loom sack for a little three pack wife beaters, like, I don't know. Yeah, that gets, I don't know, slags. That's a whole different topic. We could get to, all about it as part of one of my bits I got going. Nice. Yeah, but the problem with the scissors left in the scissors are a real thing. I can't, like, do it with the left side. And same thing with the testes. Yeah. Be careful with the left, bro. One. What you keep. Sometimes you gotta have two to get the egg at the angles. Yeah. You can't get quite get all the way around. It gets a little awkward. Then you can't see what you're doing, you know. See my racism I can't see. Oh I navigate with the, you know, it's like, you know, the Barbara's like, look out for me. Yeah, it's got ugly, all right. Just contorted. Does it get the angles right? You sit down and stand up when you do it. I'm asking you. Oh okay. I'm in the shower so I'm standing. Okay. Well so use like a razor. Razor. Yeah. Sometimes I use like a trimmer trimmer or like an electric trimmer. Okay okay. You start the show firstly. Yeah I can't do that one. The razor razor dangerous dog. Good dog. As I'm saying, with a knife. You gotta be careful, dog. You gotta be real careful with the non-dom. Yeah, be careful with the non-dom boss everyday, yo. Yeah. Be careful. Good God, it's funny, cuz I literally noticed that, like, probably a week or two ago. Just like I'm going, I'm going. I'm fucking Edward Scissorhands here. This motherfucker broke fucking Leonardo. No, no, it was his name. Johnny Depp. There we go. I'm Johnny Depp in the 90s with this bitch. And I go with the left, and I'm like a toddler. I'm like, okay, I like the color in the line. Super slow. That's the real thing. Oh, God. Yeah. Okay. No, no, it all makes more sense, as you just said now. Yeah, I guess I would if it. Oh, God, if I let the time go in between longer than, like, 2 or 3 weeks, then I need then I'll use the, the, you know, fucking the razor or not the razor, which I call packed, trimmers. Trimmer trimmers. Yeah. I'll use that to, like, whack the weeds, you know, and they'll get in there with the fine tools. Totally. But but yeah, in the shower, you need to need this, like the razor. Usually I use, like, a lady's razor because a little more gentle, little more delicate, a little softer on the skin, a little more moisturizing. Pro tip. And they contour a little bit easier using gel like some, some shave gel. No. Yeah. No. Just free ball. No I'm gonna it was a free ball and totally was going for God damn bro I don't know I might recommend some shower gel I don't know you know I don't know. Yeah. You do it sitting down. No. Okay, I think I have before, you know what I'm saying? Like when I was, like, in high school one time, okay, I was just like, God. Then we went for jumper topics. But, you know, I love it. Dropping a deuce, you know, like Mr. McAllister, they used like that, and you're like, I could use some work, you know what I'm saying? Yeah. Clean up the backside. Get it, get it down. And like, the weeds, just get busy with it. The other thing is, it's great for disposal, too. If you're sitting down, it's just like going straight into the to the toilet. Yeah. Otherwise I got to straddle that thing a little bit, you know what I'm saying? Okay, I see you're saying. Yeah okay. But now as an adult I go for the straddle rather than the seated. Yeah, totally. Yeah. Yeah. It's just I'm more focused. It's like sitting up to play video games. I was like, hold on, this motherfucker. Yeah. Cooking. Yeah, yeah. It's like this. I want to be like, alert and like, right. I don't wanna be like, sit down lazily. I feel like I'm a fuck up. You can like something real quick. Oh, God, dude, quick neck. And you're bleeding like I haven't got any, like, putting little, little, little vapor dots on your face. We'll call it cocaine. Oh, yeah? Yeah, I have to shave. Yeah, now. But yeah, just. I don't know if there's any more funny things to say about it, but, Yeah, I was doing the pits the other day, and that's crazy. I've never done the pits in my 30 plus years of life. I think it helps, because in summertime, that's when I'll really, like, be like, let me go ahead and hit this because it's like more hot outside. I'm wearing more tank tops. And then I feel like if I, do a proper trim when I go out and wear the tank top, like the next day, I don't sweat as much. Like I'm a little more like aerodynamic, or I'm more like Michael Phelps. Yeah, for breathability, you know what I'm saying? Yes. And it gets to the point where it's like that, like bushel. Like bushel. Like. Yeah. Like when you have your arms down. Is it like poking out. No. Maybe. No. Not so much. They're just long. When do you know, when do you know it's time? I think part of it is, like, if I'm sweating in the tank top for, like, no reason, I feel like I'll, like, be like, what's going on here? And I'll do, like, a troubleshooting, okay? And I'll be like, maybe my maybe I'm too little, too long down there, you know what I'm saying? Another thing is, I'll like when I'm brushing them out, I'll be like, this motherfucker's a long. I have like a preferred length, like number two, scissor cut on top. Yeah, yeah. Okay. There's times where I'm like, this is crazy. This is like, definitely do for do for a little trimmer. But then, you know, they say if you trim hair, then it grows faster. So I might be doing myself. Remember hearing that and fucking in high school? I don't know if that's true at all. Is that true? Well, my, you know, I don't know. I don't think so. I think it's that just mythical shit. I think so, like, just be like a wives tale, you know what I'm saying? Like your pet hair still growing right now? I don't know, I think so, maybe. But if you never shaved them, if you did, they would grow back to that length, I think. I think that's that's the thing. I think you'll it'll just grow back to the length that it would have been anyway. Totally. But it might just take longer to get there obviously, because you cut it shorter. But it's not going just like going to now you increase your hair growth by 0.02 or whatever every time you shave. I don't think that's, you know, I don't think, you know, maybe shave your legs one time. Really? Why why why do you shave your legs since high school was in high school? And what was, what was the desired outcome? We were talking about it, okay? This guy Brian had done it. It looked all right. Okay. I swimmer's shave for sure. Yeah. I thought maybe it would make my legs look more, Yeah. And, like, I always felt like I had, like, fucking big calves, but not like, sexy calves. Just like my legs were like, I wanted to. I call them wide receiver legs. I wanted to have wide receiver legs, like, you see like Devonta Smith line up like tiny ankles. Yeah right bro you know what I'm saying. But my legs were like like no no the rugby player water balloons felt like I got going on rugby players. Good. And so I thought maybe just like visually maybe because I have a ton of leg hair, you know what I'm saying? At times, like relative, you know. But I know, like, our friend Amelia doesn't really have that much, like, hair at all. Yeah, I remember him. Yeah. He not really had much, like, body hair. No arm or leg hair. Right. Just a genetic thing. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, yeah. So then I was, like, in my own mind, like, maybe this will change my esthetic, okay? And I just regretted it, like, instantly. Dude, did you like, how far into the shaving process did you regret it? Was it after you were done? I would say I started with left leg because I'm right handed. Okay? And I went up to, like, my calf muscle and I was like, fuck, oh, me too deep. It's a shock. It's like I got the worst parts for like four months. I can't do that. This is where high socks. It's, Yeah. I mean, it just looked like, Like a like a baby's head, you know, just bald. It didn't look good. Like a chicken with its feathers plucked off. Oh, no, you naked chicken. Yeah. Like, like a like a fearless cat. Yeah. Oh, those are nasty. That nasty like a naked mole rat. There we go. Impossible. Sure. Exactly. And I was like, you leave the leave the fur on the cat. Yeah, but I think the the the Johnson family looks better. Yeah. If you trim the hedges, you know. Yeah. The tree looks taller. Oh, totally. That's another part too. Was like, I just wanted to see my I wanted to give myself a confidence boost. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? Like when I realized when I was, like, doing the, the hairs for summertime tank tops, and then I like, you know, how boys summer, I was like, yeah. I was like, wait a minute, I haven't done that in like fucking long time, bro. Two years is like maybe a little bit of exaggeration, but I would say year plus for sure a solid year plus, I would say probably if I was like using my best brain, I would say like a year, two months, 16 days. Okay, that's my final answer somewhere right in there. And It's not like it grows and it's like, you know, like your hair, you know, I'm saying, like, if we let our hair grow for two plus years, that's just going to be down to our shoulders, right? So. Right. But like, you let your, your ball hair grow for two plus years, it's not going to go down to your fucking knees. It's like a fucking easy. It's up like it's not going to happen. I don't think that, I mean, I was that like 100% capacity, right? I don't know what else was getting in the restaurant, but but it's not like we were going to get into fire code a problem, you know? So. Yeah. So, so, yeah. And, and it just looks esthetically better. If you think so. Yeah. Totally. It's like in the circumcised. Yeah. This looks better. Yeah. I think it's more for your social profile than it is for religious circumstance. Yeah. The covenant is just a plus a plus on the side I think I think what's up? My parents literally told me that it's like, hey, we did that for you, but it was more for you than it was for you. And it's a health thing too, right? I've heard that. I don't know if that's real. I think so, because I think if you don't clean it, you know, like the inner skin that covers the head. Yeah. Like if you put like a little bit of dribble on or, you know, get it can get infected if you don't clean it up properly, if you don't clean it out properly, I wash it. Was not gonna wash it Jack, I think I was I was like three things. It's like my hair, my chest, it pits. And then like. Like, I don't. Yeah. Let's just double down the Johnson family. That's what. You gotta watch that. Totally. You remember the De Chappelle bit? Which one? I think you don't know. It's, the other guy, the white dude. Dave Dane cook. Okay, so I do the triangle. Yeah. Right. Yeah. So boom boom boom boom boom boom. I still think that, like, every time I think about that bit. So anyways. Yeah. Sorry. Oh, that to say, you know, I would probably do it for my kid also. Yeah, I probably would do it for health reasons. I would just assume it washes it washes it in their kid. What are you talking about? Yeah, his crocodile. Yeah. The Crocodile Dundee. What a beauty. There. It is natural habitat. Yeah. So I remember it's like, trying to put a bow on that bit, but I'm not like that. Go ahead. So it's just going to add to it the same, like, I used to be. I guess it was more so in middle school. No no no no no. Sorry. High school college high school, college times. I was more of a, I guess maybe not a fan of, but I would just be subscribed to the School of like the clean shave down there. Totally. But then it'd be like razor bumps and shit, you know, I'm saying I might like it. And then when it starts to grow back a little prickly and starts like rubbing in your boxers and shit. Yeah, I don't want, like, a grow. I think I got, like, irritation. What are those bumps? You know what I'm saying? Yeah, it is a razor. That's a selfie, you know. Oh, you know what that is? Gonorrhea. Some shit. Something. So. So you don't want. Okay, so I had two thoughts. One of them was the the cleaning of the of the Johnson family. And then preceding that thought, because I guess improper cleaning of the genital area is how you get to. I guess I was thinking about STDs. I was like, how do you even get those? You know, same like, how did they ever originate? It was just because it's dirty. Does dirty motherfuckers fucking do the dirty motherfuckers? I remember when I was a young kid, did you ever have they roll in a TV into your elementary school classroom and teach you about Aids, like sex ed, Aids specific? No, not Aids. I was like, in fifth grade, bro. Whoa. We had, like, we had the talk in fifth grade. Remember that? For sure. Like, the boys went to the gym, the girls went to this area and we all talked about genitals pretty much. I don't know if I went to school on that day. Really? You were there for Aids? They did. We did. I just, like, blocked it out because I was awkward. Is that what happened? I don't know though. They it was just we did another genital day in like eighth grade. Eighth grade for sure. I remember his eighth grade because I remember was my homie Zach shout out was he gave he his his pastor was the one who was like talking to us in my science class. And that one was a mix. I appreciate that one was coed well, but I think we did it again in ninth grade too. I think ninth grade, the ninth grade one was talking about like more nuanced, like, don't be trying to climb the social ladder with like using sex as a social ladder climbing tool and like, CDs are real. And ladies, here's pictures. Here's a here's pictures of CDs. The pictures will get you. That'll get you. Don't get your dog. I remember in fifth grade, though, that was like the that was the first time I'd ever been introduced to that topic of conversation. And, it was in a public setting. It was kind of weird. Awkward, totally. And like, all the boys are, like, giggling and you're like, oh, he talked about your balls. Yeah. I'm like, your body's about to go through some changes here, son. Yeah, like your butts are going hair in places that you didn't know. You me growing hair. You know what I'm saying? We were like, what, ten? We're like nine. Ten years old. What you talk about. So then my time, you get to middle school? Yeah, we had at least one more for sure. But I think the the the, the we're just talking about. I'm not sure obviously. I'm not sure what the girl the girls were talking about, but it was only talking about, maybe like hormonal changes that are going to be coming and then like acne and like growing hair in places and then like, you're going through puberty pretty much was like the introduction of puberty talk. Don't freak out. It wasn't. Yeah. It wasn't like so much sex talk. It was more it's like your body's going to go through some shit here in the next like three years. You'll be ready for that. Three years. You're striking a chord in my mind. I think maybe I went through that too. I just like I think it was mandatory in Texas. Probably. I'm pretty sure we teach sex ed. I know there are some states that don't at all. Don't they never talk about that kind of shit at school? I imagine they give the parents the option to like, maybe your parents live here. Like, not get them at it. That's what I'm saying, that pull the plug real because it's like, I don't I don't have a vivid memory of, like, sit down with, like, all the boys, like, yo, we're talking about football. This is crazy. This is an everyday lunch. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, it is not regular gym class today. Yeah, but I do have, like, I think I can remember seeing, like, gross STD pictures at one point and wasn't sure in high school. We saw that for sure in high school. Yeah. Totally. But like on Aids day. Yeah. What the hell. Aids day, Aids, HIV awareness bro. Okay. I'm gonna be super afraid of Aids. After that I was like, come on, you heard about this H. She's like, what? But, it was like a, like an informative video. Yeah. We watched, Fuck, man. I missed the punch line. What's the what's the Matthew McConaughey movie? Oh, Dallas Buyers Club. Dad did that even funny. Sorry, guys. I'll keep working for you guys. I'll get better. No, but it was an informative video for real, where it was like, you know, like, Aids is a terrible disease. Aids can be transmitted in the following ways. Sharing needles. Yeah. Sexual intercourse, unprotected. Yeah. And it's like Aids is the kind of disease that will wither you away. And it shows, like Matthew McConaughey from Dallas Buyers Club. And then it was 85 pounds and shit. Yeah. Like explain like this is, something that's going on in our society. If you have unprotected sex, you could get this and it's going to like, they like fear God, like there's a there's nothing that'll help you. They didn't tell us about Magic Johnson. They're like, you will die from this. So it's like, be careful, sexy boys smoke here and like, you got millions of dollars, right? So then like, but then the I want to say like after that there was like, you know, some discussion with the boys in the locker room. We don't have a locker room, but somebody was saying it was maybe they saw it on family Guy. They saw it on South Park. I'm not sure if somebody said like the first person I got Aids had sex with like a monkey fucking monkey, fucking a monkey. I'm pretty sure that was a Dave Chappelle bit. Okay, so maybe it was, you know, I don't know. I don't know, could have been right. But then that guy entered into my mind of, like, maybe that's how STDs came about. Like how? Because you how the first person get what? Right. What's going on there? You know what I'm saying? Yeah. I think it's two options. One or sorry. Like one is it's just people who don't shower down there, don't clean, they're all sweaty and shit, and then you're fucking someone else is all sweaty and shit and gross and hasn't showered in a week, two weeks, whatever, whatever the time is. How old are STIs? I would assume back in like the caveman times, there would be STDs everywhere because I went showering, you know, I was like, no one's like clean per se. Like, you just clean yourself off in the fucking water. Like at the watering hole. That's like the best. You got no soap. No antibacterial soap. I was thinking about that. While it is dirty, what else is dirty? Monkeys think soap is just fucking corporate America selling us another fucking product. We really need. It's like, how good is important, right? I don't know, but maybe this is propaganda. I don't know, I was because the other day I didn't have any soap and I was just like, can I get away with just using water and hot water? Yeah. And I was like, what is it kills bacteria at a certain temperature, but maybe that temperature would fuck your hands up pretty bad. No. Like that day, I just ended up using hands up. I was like, fuck it, what's the difference, right? Some germ mix or whatever. Yeah. And then what? They kind of figured out. Yeah, they got those a little bit. The little fucking hand dispenser of, whatever. Durex. Yeah. Hand sanitizer. There we go. Yeah. It just. Rub it. Yeah. No, no, no, but I just heads up with the shower and then got soap. Soap? But what I was wondering, I was like, back in the day, like, when did hand soap even fucking become. You know, I'm saying we lived a long time with our hand soap or a body washing. Maybe. Maybe it was just a lot more disease back then. Or maybe the higher high, probably higher proportion of the population was disease ridden 100 carry disease because we didn't have the soap and then maybe just like mitigated that a lot with the soap, I imagine. I think it's a real thing. I think germs are real things. Yeah. Yeah, I agree with you. There's like, like antibacterial soap was like a major invention in the, like, world, I guess. I think we met it in America, but I don't know, but like to be able to have truly antibacterial soap made, like, doctors jobs way easier. I think it was a doctor that invented it because then they could, like, sterilize their equipment and shit like that. And then people, the infection rates dropped down like massively. So it was like a revolution in health care for sure, big time. That makes sense. Yeah. So but like prior to that, I mean people were dying for like 30, you know what I'm saying? Yeah. This thing that we said for, you know, like the Spanish flu killed like a bunch of people, the, we gave the Native American, I say we I didn't do this. The Europeans gave Native Americans. What was it like, measles and shit or smallpox or whatever the fuck? So instead of between smallpox and gonorrhea. Then it. One makes me think of chicken pox. And what makes you think of cocks? So when you dug that, I don't know, but, part of my brain is what I'm trying to get to is like, the symptoms of chicken pox. It looks like spots on your arms and everywhere. And then the symptoms of, like, herpes are like spots on your genital area. Yeah, totally. So, like, maybe it's like catching one or catching the other. It's like, I don't even. I don't know how smallpox came about either. I think it's like natural bacteria yeast thing and then becoming this is something that can harm your balance in your body. Okay. And so maybe it's like just the same thing like somebody was like exploring a cave and then they like, pulled open a rock that had like microbial bacteria from thousands of years. And then that wasn't that interacted with human skin negatively. Maybe someone tried to get a little busy with it like a monkey. That could be a zoo. Who knows? That's the classic joke. Is someone stuck their way inside of a Jenga block that they showed her how to knock the tower over. Fucked up a whole. Her whole social towers. Yeah. So hygiene. There we go. So weird. Hygiene. Yeah, exactly. So I see these are scary. Definitely. Because. Because the other answer doesn't make sense. Like, which came first, the chicken or the egg? It's like I get an STD from having sex with someone who has an acid. Or how do they get it? Well, how do they get it? Well, how do they get it right? They get it. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. What do you trace that shit to? Yeah, that's kind of. I was getting that. So I think it's probably just dirty genitalia pondering it. Dirty, dirty. Jenny's inside of other dirty Jenny. Totally. Or you're fucking a monkey or I'll get you. Jenny is pretty dirty. That's definitely not a clean place. Yeah, they ain't got no soap. And I don't like brothels in the 1400s. Right. We're pretty fucking filthy. You can end up just catching bacteria from something that was brewing. Just just brewing? Yeah. I don't know, man. I mean, yeah, strange. Yeah. Chicken or the egg type shit. Totally. Either way, it's gross. Vegas, Vegas. So get that hygiene going. Yeah, use that soap full of a god. Do some soap, man. But, yeah, I guess we're talking about it's being back in middle school. So I did it again. High school, college, college time. I was more more, more for the clean shave. Well, for the traditional down there. Right. But I'm leaning towards the bush. Okay. I'm leaning towards like a little a very tamed bush. You know what I'm saying? Sure. Not a fucking jungle. What's your, That's a fairy. What's your logic there? I don't know. I think maybe it's a change of esthetic because I've been doing that for a while, so I was like, I'm gonna change it up a little bit. I'm gonna leave some of this down there, okay? Okay. It looks. It looks all right. It looks all right. I think it's it might be more masculine. You know, as far as the perception from the woman's perspective, that's what I was saying. I got recommended, you know, preference recommendations. Yes. That was where it was coming from. Is this is more masculine? I think so too. Yeah. I've heard the same thing. Yeah. So it's like, because yeah, it's like you're, you're prepubescent otherwise, you know, or feels like Michael Phelps. But if you're Michael Phelps, Michael Phelps, that's why I go for the taper fade. Yeah, exactly. It's an esthetic, you know what I'm saying? There's something to be said for like, fucking big burly man. Big fucking bush. I think that's that's hot on some level, but I totally get it. I think the beer does the same type of thing, right? Right. Yeah. Yeah for sure. Because you see, kids ain't growing beards. No. And if a kid is growing a beard, you're like, you're manly. Yeah, right. That kid's getting laid. That's it's. But I, I've seen the videos on Instagram where the dad shaves his beard and then the wife's like, what the fuck? What do you do? Do? It's like, oh, my God, you look like a child. Yeah, right. It's one of the first thoughts. Yeah. Or like, like I've seen, like a dad reveals his beard shaved to the baby, and the baby just starts crying. No. Yeah, like, it's, like, upsetting. I think it's like, that's a big, jarring change of perception. Yeah. The baby fucks with their mental image. Who is this? Right? It's like you feel like dad, but you're a stranger. Yeah, yeah. No, this face is facial recognition. Like, totally. I'm not going to open for you. Like, if I'm your iPhone using. The sidebar complete sidebar sidebars. Demi fucking loves my beard, baby. Damn, my little baby loves my beard. But she. Lately she. Like, last night she was grabbing a fucking. I had to be like, yo, chill. Like she's getting aggressive. Yeah, she was, she was mad at one point. She was like upset. I was like, fixing some things, like wanted the bottle and I was like, fixing it. She just grabbed my beard. I was like, bitch. I was like, yo, on one hand, I'm proud of you for having that much agency. You're like, help me out. Like you're like grabbing me to help you. That's cool expression. Totally. On the other hand, chill out. Yo, like that hurts. I don't think she knows. You know what I'm saying? Oh, absolutely. No, I never didn't have to, baby. But I was kind of like processing all that was like, because, like. And then sometimes, like, when she was, like, falling asleep. Falling asleep like the last 15 seconds left, she's like, reached up and, like, touched my beard. I was like, okay. And like, fell asleep. And I was like, that's crazy, bro. Yeah. You're like, he's here. I'm gonna close my eyes. But I know he's here because, like, I'm going to, I'm going to touch the beard. I was like, she's crazy. She also made a crazy catch last night. Really? Yeah. She was like, I think she was looking up at the sky, looking at me and like, getting kind of fussy because it was like, She was like, crying, like on her last stand, you know? She's like, fighting the sleep demon. Yeah, she's probably not going to take me sleep, demon like you're saying, man. Yeah. It's like I feel bad for, like, my neighbors. Maybe on that. Like that five minute period where she's, like, fighting the Sandman, and then she's holding this, like, to. I don't wanna call it a chew toy, cause that's what dogs use. But this teething toy. Okay. And, she's holding it in the right hand, and then she, like, kind of fumbles it, and it rolls across and she's looking at me and it's rolling and she just pops out the left hand and catches that thing. But she kind of catches it. And then with her head was dragging and I saw her catch it and then confirmed the catch with her eyes. And I was like, what the fuck are we talking about? I'll be talking. That's a superstar. I'm pretty sure I picked her up. I was like, that's a baby. Top ten right there. For reals. A newborn top ten. Every time she gets on the crack, I'm always like, baby, yeah, yeah. Positive reinforcement, positive reinforcement. The other crack thing she does is like, she'll look at me. It's like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And then she's like, do it. And I'll be like. And then sometimes immediately she goes like just straight up mirrors it like the same cadence and everything. And then I'm like, that's a good job. That's okay. Because it's like, that's crazy. She can do that. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. Let's baby talk. Baby talk. One of the wanted to tell you about that crazy catch you made, but then also the beard thing. Yeah, but I'm not quite done talking about pubes. So now back to poop talk. Let's start over there. I do not consort those two ideas. Not at all. Separate ideas here. Segway. Well, actually, they. But but yeah, right now. They cross the cross somewhere. I mean, connect those dots, but, I the problem is, is I definitely want to when I do it just be easier for me to do like shave it all the way down. Clean is much simpler, much simpler bro. But yeah, it's just fucking just. Yeah, it's like a haircut. So I can sort of like the nuance of, like a taper fade. Where do I start the fade, how to blend it? How do I do all this? Like fucking buzzcut? I just don't just take it off. Totally. Dude, that's where I'd like to live personally. But I think there is like a unattractive level to it. Yeah, exactly. I was going gonna say it depends on the person for sure. Totally. For sure. But, would you ever get wax? I think about waxing my whole sometimes. Whoa, I can shave that I never have, I never been wax anything. Yeah. I've, I've had my T-zone wax before. I remember, above your eyebrows. Yeah, around your eyebrows. Around my eyebrows. And, like, my the unibrow. Anthony David Davis. Yeah, yeah. Just, like, really just for fun, you know what I'm saying? Not because, like, I needed it or anything, like that. Into a spa. No. Just at home. Oh, yeah. Totally DIY. Yeah, like I didn't do it, but my partner at the time did. Okay. Just like a little bit of hot wax or how was. Yeah, painful. Like, like, you know, the little pot where the girls are, like, melt the thing and put it on a popsicle stick? Yeah, yeah. Totally. Totally. I like it was like, you know what I'm saying? But I didn't cry or anything, like that. I wasn't like a Brazilian, you know what I'm saying? Okay. What's the difference? I think a Brazilian is like a strip that you put on, okay? And then you like that shit's like Velcro, and then you're like, oh, I think that hurts a lot more. Yeah, like Steve Korea, four year old virgin. Yeah, exactly, exactly. Whereas, like the wax. You good and you let it dry and then you're like, I think it's more like, like a glue. Like a glue stick. Versus like, you know, duct tape. Oh I think that's a good comparison. Yeah. Know like scotch tape versus duct tape. Yeah. It's not like it's going to get there totally. But I got a pipe like when I went to work the next few days, people were like, yo, looking good. I'm like really? Like even fucking. Can you even tell the difference? It was like a subtle esthetic change. Super. Yeah. Super subtle with the eyebrows. Oh, the girl so too. So, yeah, girls are definitely way more eyebrow focused than men. It's crazy. It was crazy. They kind of fucked me up when all the girls were like, did you fucking want your brows? Then you looking good, I guess the browser and part like, oh I Drizzy Drake for a moment slay. Yeah. Because as they know it is totally. It's cool. Another sidebar. It's cool having like a kid who's in that age bracket like the gen whatever, Gen Alpha, whatever they are now, the 11, 11 to 13 year old someone in the ballpark, she's a pre-teen. So like, I'm like, I get the slang, you know what I'm saying? Yeah, totally. Thing first hand slang. Yeah, yeah. That's cool. Yeah. Quarter. It's crazy how that how that works. You know, we were saying like whenever we were coming up like, dude and Dope Beasts and a couple other words that were kind of not really popularized in the early 90s or now we came upon them, you would think, dude, wasn't that like, but it was, I don't remember, but come on, dude, it was like, funny, you know what I'm saying? She was like, kind of making fun of the way we talk. Yeah, yeah, it it was it's hilarious. Yeah. Now it's like scary and fucking. But the other one, you know what that is? Dude, I don't know either, man. I think it's a character on I think it's a YouTuber, like Scooby Doo Toilet. I just a fucking thing. I have no idea what it is. I feel older, I saw a Scooby Toilet toy in H-e-b. I was like, what the fuck is this? Who were you? What the fuck? How did this. Yeah. Skip it. He's a thing. Slay is a big one nowadays. What is. What is the kid saying? No, I there was. I've seen a couple of different funny things on the plot. Yeah, that's that's another expression. I like that one. There was, I think I've seen a couple different, pictures of, like, classrooms of, like, forbidden words or like words that the teachers didn't want you to say anymore. That's annoying. Shit. Sigma is another one. Yeah, totally. Yeah, I've seen one. Did he party? Yeah. Did he print off double? I was playing Call of Duty when all that happened, and it was like everybody's fucking name was dirty. Something really. So many. I was just, like, kind of tripped out by it. Really. I never really changed my gamertag. Yeah. There's so many, bro. Yeah, I was really popular. Any time I see an I post on Instagram and I well, I'll just go to the comments sometimes on post and it's just like, not this time. Did he not this time. Did he not try? Did he? Not sure I did it, that is I yeah, I see a whole bunch of that. What was I referring to? I think that the what they're saying is like, we know this is I, but it took me forever to get to that thought. At first I was like, what the fuck? Like, you got you got hacked. You got spammed. Yeah. You know, to spam bots, I don't know, I'm not sure. I think it's. Oh, no, I'm trying to beat that shit because I, I'm just rolling up my own assumptions. Yeah. I can't even tell you. Are we. How long are we going for? Goddamn it, bro, like, in an hour? We're over an hour in now. I don't want to start. Yeah, my internal shot clock was going. Never want to start getting low and go for years. Totally. We could talk side for a little bit. Yeah, that reminds me. I think there was something we talked about earlier. Oh, a boob type on it. Yeah. I oddly I'd leave a little something on there. Yeah, I think that's a move. Yeah. I think, you know, I don't like, give it to my technique, but recommendations, I would clear down the, you know, the low hanging fruit. I would get that pretty spotless for the most part. Yeah. And then I'd leave a little something to be desired up top. Yeah. I think it's a solid. It's a solid look. It's a good esthetic. Yeah, totally. I think I think that's a move. Yeah. I think if you're, you're too short, you could end up ruining a moment too long. You could end up ruining a moment, you know, want to. And one time I got out of the shower. Okay, okay. Dry myself up, bro. Yeah. I was experimenting with just being more of a naked person at the time. Okay? You know, there's people walking around the apartment. Yeah, okay. There's people that sleep naked. There's people. Right? Yeah. For sure. There's you on friends. You remember naked guy? No. Like looking through the. There's naked guy. Peeping Tom. No, he went off. Well, it's like the friends had a neighbor across the way, and he was just always naked. So sometimes, like, he'd be doing something crazy, they'd be like naked guys making bananas. That had a making it. It'll make another fuck up. I'm sorry. Two strikes going bananas. Yeah. Thank you. Banana bread. Yeah. They'll be doing something. Making a milkshake. He's playing DDR. Yeah. Then it's the guys playing DDR like Joey Chandler would run over there. I'd be like, no way, it's all you. I was naked face. Whatever. Look in the mirror and I could swear to you. Do you know what the. The box with the spirals and the The Da Vinci Code? What's it called? The Fibonacci sequence. Yeah. Swear. My people. Natural sequence was I looked at. I was like, you could call me a lot of things right now. Crazy high. Tired. Okay. I swear to you, I got a little Fibonacci sequence going on down there, and I was like, what? Are there something to that? Maybe that was like the idea of the pube was to be some side of, like, because it's like life comes from the dick. 100% from the balls right there, right there. And then the piece of esthetic that we were given to go along with this giver of life from the giver of life himself. It just it just was it just was the flip out. Maybe it's a towel work. You ever, like, do the towel and your hair's perfect after you hit the towel on it. Like, how do I keep this? And I was just, like, sitting there for a second, like, How do I keep it? This length? I think too short. I'm like, in Fibonacci, too long. I'm getting too much energy. Not in a fib. Like I keep it right here. And I never thought about that again until right now. This is like a perfect balance of fib and the knots, the fun and the way it was right there. That was the way I looked at that. I looked at that pit of pubes that I saw. God, for a second I was like, you know, I think it was the creation of man, this is the burning bush. Oh. I mean, like, it was like a like, I'm trying to imagine this, trying to follow you. It's like a like a string of tube, like you shaved everything that was excess, and it was like a spiral. Or it was like, just like the way that the the the wind blew the leaves and the way the the fucking stalks were moving. I wasn't I hadn't gotten a fresh cut. Okay. But it hadn't been too long either. Okay. So it was like a nice mid plus. Got it. And it, it, I think it was the way the, the, the wind was blowing spiral motion of the towel. Totally. But it was also like, the water because it was still like a little wet. Okay. So that was part of it too, was like impacting the texture of what we were looking at. Yeah. And I just saw like the Fibonacci sequence. It was like like, boop. I'm trying to think what it looks like in your mind. Like, obviously it wasn't like I had four different sections, you know what I'm saying? I was like, this is like a Fibonacci sequence. I'm pretty sure it's just like it starts with, like a, like a central point, and then it's slowly starts to spiral out. And like as the spiral goes out, it gets wider and wider, like by a certain it's like one plus two, it's three, and then three plus two was five and then five plus three is eight. And you know, like eight plus five is 13. So like and it increases incrementally or like exponentially. Could you imagine right now for a second if we travel to France okay. Monzo, croissant crystal. We go into the Louvre there. You see the Sistine Chapel work. I think that one's in Italy. Elisa. Sure, sure. And you just you look at the Mona Lisa and you're like, I get it, I get I looked in the mirror. That's the Fibonacci sequence. Or at least the like. Oh, revelation moment. I can't really explain it more than that. Like a bloomed flower. Yes, totally. That's what I was just like the. Life was that the design? The design? It's all a design. Perfect design. Totally. You know, been chasing really. It's the place it was, I felt I. How old are you in this effort? 24 days. It's been like almost. I was living I was living seven, eight years. I was living with my sister cause I wasn't walking around naked round the park. My sister was there. We had, like, alternating schedules. You know what I'm saying? Perfect. But I was, like, very alone, very single. Like running a lot. I like to look at my body. I like the shape of me. So there was times when I was Ed Sheeran. Yeah, I was into that. And so but that's another thing is I had been really working on my body, you know what I'm saying? So like, I felt I was like was looking at like myself and I'm like, yo, you're like getting there dog like. And that's like the central point of your human to, you know, say from foot to head. It's like like right in the middle. Right. And so like, there was a there was something happening, like, I, like I was getting my life together. The proportions were perfect, right? Like the legs were a little bigger, the chest was a little bigger. The waist I came down, I had a nice like natural V from doing lower abs. Like I was like getting there, you know what I'm saying? And I was like, man, this is really well put together. And then I like I just kept going down. I was like, this is like crying. This is, this is, this is, this is my version of Daveed. Yeah. This would da Vinci would cry for this? Totally. I was I was had a moment, I had a moment. That's so funny. I think I think I went to my computer. It was like, did some research on the Fibonacci sequence that night. Yeah. And I was like, dude, I don't know what it was, but I could swear that I put this on a TV saw perfection kind of glimpse. It was the perfect length. It was everything in that moment, in that moment in life, I was where I was supposed to be. I had done good work and and everything was blossoming and blooming. It's a good painting. Totally, totally. So I think that's what you're looking for when you do your landscaping, you're trying to find your internal Fibonacci sequence. All of that. It's beautiful man. It's looking beautiful. It's art. I love the I love to go to France. Speaking of going to the Louvre, that's one of my life goals. I want to go to France. I want to go to Italy. I want to go to see the coal seams in Rome. And those are definitely top three. I want to I want to do those things for sure. Those those are big time bucket list items, 100%. No debates. Got to go do that. European, European shit. If I had to go to one place like they were like, all right, you're going to die, but we're going to fund a vacation for you because sucks that you're going to die. Where do you want to go? I'd be like, I want to go see the live. It's just like too much valuable art is there like, I think it would fuck it up. And I don't even know if you could take it all in at one time, because we only have so much bandwidth. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. And I think you probably go to Italy and find the same thing, but there's just some shit I want to see. Like, I really want to see the statue of David. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, I think it's in Italy. Oh, fuck. I think I'm pretty sure I could swear. Yeah, look it up. Yeah, totally. Just because where? Just ask. Ask. That's the internet. I want to say it's in Italy. I'm pretty sure. Florence, Italy. God damn it, bro. Gotta go to Italy, bro. We gotta go see the Sistine Chapel. I just go see the Vatican. Just change an axiom because the Vatican's the other answer. Yeah, yeah. For, like, most valuable. Unbelievable amount of crazy, all inspiring shit. Totally. What? I think there's a lot of Rembrandt in the Louvre, and I fuck with him a lot. I loved art history. That's probably one of my favorite. Well, I took it in high school, but it was definitely my favorite high school class I took. Our history goes hard. What are the coolest pieces? Do you think Italy's the number one? It's got to be up there, I think. Yeah, if I had to guess, I'm pretty sure Italy would be my number one. Totally see the Vatican. Sistine chapel. Go see David. Because I remember. Because I took a art. I was it was in college and pressure was called art appreciation, maybe, but it was like art history, art appreciation class. And we were just going through statues, going through paintings, whatever, talking about different styles of painting, how like the cultural times influenced the artists and like pop culture at the time or whatever. And I remember seeing the statue of David and it just struck something in me like a just a picture of the statue of David. I was like, that's my favorite piece of art. Yeah. Which I've ever seen. You know, I've seen a whole bunch. Now that I'm in this class like this, what we're doing is like going through all the artists and all the different kind of art. Yeah, I remember seeing it and being like, wow, that's hard. That's that shit. I agree, that's in my top five for sure. Dude, I might be a fraud, to be honest. Yeah. Look at the top ten. Like coolest paintings and number one's Mona Lisa hours. Oh, no, the other nine. I don't really want to see the Mona Lisa. How do you like what you looked up? Top ten most popular paintings in the Louvre. I said one of the coolest pieces of art in the LA. If you had a better question, okay, still is, but it's part of the same answer. Probably. Yeah. It says these are some of the coolest and most iconic works of art. Yeah. There we go. Number two is the Winged Victory of Samothrace. I never heard of it. Hellenistic sculpture of Nike, the goddess of victory. Oh, but that's part fucking dope. Yeah, but, I mean, I agree with you. I just don't even know. Like, I can't be like, well, I want to go see this and this and this, and, Mona Lisa is the only one I can think of. A top of my head, Venus de Milo, an ancient Greek statue of Aphrodite. Liberty leading the People by Eugene Delacroix. A powerful symbol of revolution with a bare breasted woman leading a charge, were cast at battle. Coronation of Napoleon. The Raft of Medusa, the lace maker by Vermeer. Never heard of any of these. Coat of hammer by the Great Sphinx of Tennis. It's from Egypt. Gabrielle de S3's and one of her sisters. Get me fucked up, dude. I couldn't name a single one of those. I couldn't, like, match it to the actual art itself. I really rock with Rembrandt. I remember a lot of his shit I thought was really dope. Like, there's there's like, he does a lot of biblical stuff too. So, like the Good Samaritan, I definitely wanted to see the philosopher and meditation. Bathsheba at her bath is maybe the most popular. It's in it's Bathsheba. As she contemplates a letter from King David. It's celebrated for its intimate portrayal. But he just goes hard, dude, my favorite Rembrandt is the one where, they're in a boat in the storm setting, and, I can't remember exactly what part of the Bible it's from, but he also has one where, I think it's Thomas goes out on the water and he starts to sink, and then it's like, Jesus is like, not sad, but it's like the facial expressions were crazy and everything was really deep, too. Like, as far as, like who was there and how they looked and where the light was hitting and like where they were positioned as a representative, symbolic. Totally. But yeah, we can do it. Fuck you. I think at least 500 million, I don't know, there's a lot of cool stuff to do in France other than eat Christmas, smoke cigarets and go to the live drink coffee. Yeah, totally. Be an asshole because I'm just kidding. French people. I've heard that. Yeah, totally. I heard they don't like Americans for sure. Yeah, yeah. It's why, like, I think Hawaiians are probably in the same sort of vein or like. Oh, yeah, we're they are Americans. I was like assholes, but like, yeah, I think they're assholes. Or I think they are annoyed by the amount of tourists. I go and see their home right, right. You know, like, get the fuck out of here. Totally fucking tourists. Give me your money. Fucking Jason McDonald's pussy. Yeah, it's totally so right. They're just. Yeah, well. Fuck. Dude. Yeah, it looks cool. Italy's the one I think. Can't. Seems bad ass. Yeah, that'd be tight, right? The blunt, the Sambora. You Joe Rogan was talking about he got no no no no. Yeah Joe Rogan did. He was talking about how he got a, like an intimate tour of the Vatican where they were, like, showing, like a lot of crazy shit and, like, explaining a lot of crazy shit. He's just getting his mind fucked. And I think that I also heard, because he was talking about it with Russell Crowe and Russell Crowe went, and they fuck with him heavy because of the Gladiator. Yeah. So like they were giving him like a behind the scenes tour of stuff and like, yeah, apparently in the amount of stuff that's in the Vatican's like insane. Like, it doesn't even make sense how you guys got so crazy records and books and art or whatever, like some of the most valuable shit in the world is stored at the Vatican. The Vatican? Yeah. How do you see a church? Right. Yeah. They're like their own kind of city. Like it's like a museum. Church? Yes. Building. Yeah. I think the Vatican is representative of, like, the community as a whole. And the center is a church where, like, literally the pope and the Pope's people, like, operate there religion. I'm not sure what they do. Catholicism. But then also it's a grand library and also a museum and all of that. Like, all in one, like a trippy dude. Remember the Da Vinci Code? Yeah. Yeah, I think that's in the in the Vatican for sure. So yeah, a lot of that takes place. Yeah, yeah. Tom Hanks and shit. My parents were reading those books on audiobooks really when I was a kid, so I remember, like, it was crazy when the movie came out, put a visual and all that. Yeah, yeah, that A Vinci Code and it's like, probably similar to that. Or that does have a similar reference point to that. My mind, like national treasure, like the idea of like hidden secret coded messages in like some of our craziest art. Yeah, totally. It's cool to think about. Yeah. It's like same thing almost. Yeah, right. It's crazy. It's fucking badass. And I was playing fable last night and I crossed all back. Let's do dude. Oh my gosh, such a throwback. What, like one of the goats? Yeah, it's cool playing it as a adult because I can fly through shit. It took me like forever as a kid. And I also explored, like, everything. So like, I probably spent like 30 to 40 hours playing it as a kid or as, like, I beat the game in like ten hours and got all the dopest shit, just like flew through it. It's cool. It's like revisiting a book, you know? But then I got to a point where, so I when I played it as a kid, like, you get to the end of the game, end of the game. But then they released like, DLC for the game. And I remember I had bought one of the DLCs for the game and then, but I didn't get to play that the first time I played it through. So I played through fable like maybe three or 4 or 5 times, but I only played the DLC once, and then I'm playing it's called TLC, it's the the last chapters, and so it has all the DLC put into the original game for you. Tight, right? And it's super cheap because the game so old, it was like 15 bucks. I bought it so long ago, it just stays in my steam library too. So I like beat the game and then like more stuff was happening and I was like, yo, holy shit, this is became novel. Like, I don't remember this all nice. And then like the the basically what was happening is that in the north, an undead threat to the entire world was coming down south, and you needed to, like, go get the heart of fire and it would take you to the north, and then you would be able to deal with the threat. And I'm like, when the fuck did this come out, dude? Like, it was eerie, similar, like some of the wording and stuff like that to like Game of Thrones, game of Thrones. The first thought I had. Yeah, it was like the way I said it, it was like there's a threat coming from the north, a threat that could tear down everything that we know. This is more important than anything that you're doing. All the words you're fighting are pointless compared to this. Start from the North. That's coming. Like you need to go, like, deal with this. But first you're gonna have to go get the fire before you can go into the ice. And I was just like, where George are. Are George happening here? Doug and I wanted the first book come out for from impression. I was just up recently relatively. It was in the 90s for sure. It was like 96 or some shit. 98 maybe. Okay. I think those guys were influenced by that. Probably. But it wasn't blown up so big. It might have been a more niche reference back then. It was very niche back then. It was like 96 or 98. It was the first book. And then I think the most recent book that came out was a fifth one, and that came out like 2008. Good God, bro, probably like 12 years from 1 to 5. But it was very niche back then because, yeah, the show didn't come out until like 2010, maybe 2020. Yeah. That's crazy. That was one thing I want to tell you. One of the thing I would tell you before, we probably, I don't know for you guys last thoughts. Yeah, yeah. Bro, I'm watching Joe Rogan last night while I'm playing football. Which one? I'm watching the two British guys. Most recent one. Okay. And there's a point where they're talking about Las Vegas, and then they're talking about how. But there's probably thousands of bodies buried in the desert. Motherfuckers that didn't pay back their loans. Yeah, right. Mob ties. Like they just recently found a body from, like, the 70s. And then the kneecap list. The kneecap list, bro. Yeah, totally. And my brain just went straight to. I just was, like, in my own mind, you know, dance and creating whatever. And I started thinking about a conversation I had with, with an old boss at a restaurant talking about he's like using you have a casino. And I'm like, with the De Niro. Yeah. I'm like, yes, in the movie. And I was cool with this guy because if you knew what he was talking about, it was like you were getting clout points all the time. So I was like, excited. I'm like, yeah, I like that movie. And he was like, you know, same with the blueberries in the muffin. I'm like, not top of my head. Same thing. And he's like, oh, okay, maybe didn't see the movie then. Plus, you fucking know. I'm like, oh, I see the movie, bro. And then I'm like, don't. No, no, I know you're talking about. I know he's like, no, don't play with me. And I was like reliving that moment of like. Like I had seen that movie, bro. Like once I realized the scene he was talking about, I could start describing. I know he's sitting down in the cafe, or they're in the back and he's in a seat and the other guy standing up, and then he pulls apart the muffin like, I fucking seen a dog. And I was just like, thinking about that, okay. And then in the podcast, the guys immediately like, have you seen the movie casino? And I was just like, it's like, mind blown dog. I was like, how did I like? I backed it up to see if there were any like precursors or something that would have, like taken me there. And it took him there, but it was like, you know, call me crazy, but I feel like whatever stream of consciousness they were on, like I was in that same stream of consciousness with them in that moment. Yeah. So when he had the idea of like, have you seen casino? My brain just like was in the same already there. Yeah, I went there too. So like, if I were that guy on the podcast, I would have, might have said like, have you guys seen casino? And like, he was just there, tapped into the stream of consciousness at the same time. Yeah, it was mind fuck. And then like, they just started talking about casino for like a minute and I was like, just tripping, dude. Yeah. Like the psychedelic. I felt, I felt like I tapped into some kind of crazy psychedelic moment. For real. Yeah. Like the it's weird. The, the, the thoughts space whatever our mind is. You know, I'm saying like, yeah, yeah, we're on the same frequency of mind. At that point we were dude, like that's the only I felt it. And then I'm like, let me make sure I'm not tripping. Let me rewind and see if there was any reason. Like, did someone say De Niro? Did someone like, you know what I'm saying? They're talking about Vegas in general, I guess. Yeah, I the only you were there. The only maybe thing that they said was, yeah there's some that's it. I think so many other Vegas thoughts could have populated in my mind. The only other thing they said was like, yeah, they take, someone talking too much to the press. And I don't know if that's what took my mind to casino. Like, I'm like, in what sense would talking to the press be like a negative thing? You know what I'm saying? Like, I'm being generous to the counterargument. That's all I can. But ultimately, I really, truly think that, like, I was on the frequency with them and the where the conversation was going, I was just there with them and the thing that just played in my head was, our old boss asking me, have you ever seen casino? And then I just, like, replayed that memory for a while, and then I got kind of pissed off thinking about how lame that is to, like, shit on someone when they're like I did. I know exactly you can connect with me, bro. Like you took it. You were like, oh, I can't connect with you because now you're being disingenuous. Because now you just want me to like you. Because I'm the boss. I'm like, no. In the scene, he's like, pulls apart the muffin and he's like, okay, so my blueberries are in this muffin. And then he, like, pulls apart another muffin and he's like, okay, so many blueberries in this muffin. Why are there so many more blueberries in this muffin than there are in this muffin? So, like, if I could only get a muffin, then then I come back the next day to get a muffin. I'm expecting, like, a certain amount of blueberries, and now they're not there anymore. It's like that. That's fucked up. Why? Who who makes these fucking muffins? And he starts going off, like saying, like, I want the same number of fucking blueberries and every muffin, like, going in. And then our old boss was saying, like, sometimes I feel like that he does it. What's the other guy's like, the food prep or what? Yeah. The consistency. Yeah. That he was expressing to me. He's like, I'm getting on their ass about consistency. Okay. Have you ever seen about like casino? It's like, yeah, sometimes I'm telling him I feel like that movie. Okay, that's kind of badass, right? That's most of our conversations. Oh my God, this is be I feel like that today. Relate to me totally, but I can I did I know you're talking about right. But regardless, my brain went here and his brain went there too. Was fucking weird, bro. Trippy. Dude. That reminds me of that crazy dream I had the other night. I was telling you about where I was, like we were. I was trying to find a parking spot, turn it back into a parking spot. It was raining super fucking heavy. Couldn't even see out of the rearview camera, could barely see out of the windshield. And then I was trying to back into a spot and then, like a Lowe's flatbed truck, came in and dropped all of its fucking cargo like it's two by fours and would and then we had to go around and then go into the like the side of the store. And then we walked into the basement. It was flooded and shit. Then we started walking up the stairs and like, just that dream was so, so, so weird. It was like just like the it was such Black mirror vibes of fucking. Just eerie, creepy thriller, suspenseful, like, oh shit, what's going to happen? And I remember I had all of that energy in me, like while I was in the dream. And then I like when I wake up, she gets the the lady gets up and is, like, I have to go take the kid to take her to school or like, get her ready for school or whatever. And typically, like, sometimes I wake up when that happens. And then I was like, hit, hit the head again. Fuck. I'm sleeping. I'm passed out. And then. But this time I was just like, I felt so compelled to be like, I just had a crazy dream. And like, that's all I said to her. I was like, I just had a crazy dream. And then like she said that as soon as I said that those words, I had a crazy dream to her. She felt all of that suspense, eerie, creepy, thriller type energy like enter her Matrix. So like, I like, passed that to her through our subconscious or, you know what I'm saying? Like our wavelength of of mental like I past all of that. She felt all of it. And all I said was I had a crazy dream. It could have been any type of crazy dream, could have been like a roller coaster dream, or it could have been like a like a shoot em up dream. Or like I'm playing a video game where you hit the lottery. Yeah, something like Funny Happened or something like really, really funny, like a crazy happened. But it was like, just very apparently like that creepy, eerie energy that I was feeling. I transferred all of that through our subconscious, and she felt all of it. She's like, I don't know why, but whenever you said that you had a crazy dream, I felt like kind of scared. I see, that's so weird. So weird. What is that? The mental space is beyond us. It is this beyond us, bro. We just got. We got brains, dogs and minds, man. I don't wanna jump around too much, for I was in traffic today. Not even in traffic. I'll just drive in. Dog. Yeah, this got two lanes over. I just like for no reason. Look over at this guy, and he just looks right back at me, like, what the fuck? That tripped me out? No, do do do do do like he felt me. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, yeah. That's what I took away. Like, I don't know, man. There's just times where you like. Like, I'm not saying telepathy is real, but I might be. Dude. Like, there's times when I'm so tapped in, I know, like, I'm, like, making recommendations to guess. And then I'm like, let me keep making recommendations because, like, I'm tapping into something else, you know what I'm saying? Did you feel like that was something going on with you guys. Like there's like a telepathy space. Like you guys somehow have some kind of channel to each other. Like you were just like past those feelings through your telepathy. Fucking vibes. I don't know what it is. Something like that for sure. Something. Right. There's something there's some connectedness that we have, you know, with, like, your most intimate group of people that you share the most time with and like share your thoughts space with. Totally. It's like there we can like feel it like some like sometimes twins can like, feel when the other twin is in distress, you know, type shit. Yeah. It's like they could just there's something going on there beyond our mental capacity that we can like we have a we all think, we all have thoughts. And like, all those thoughts are occurring in our mind, whatever the fuck the mind is, we don't even really know what that is quite yet. Totally. But like, it's we think the mind is just like a at least I conceptualize the mind as a place where like thoughts happen and you could, like, close your eyes and imagine a beach and it's like, where is that beach? It's in your mind, you know what I'm saying? But like that, it seems like a small thing that I'm just connected to. But I think it broadens out to like fucking the thing that we're all connected to. We all have minds, we're all connected to the same hivemind, and we're all sharing thoughts and sharing feelings through that thing. And I guess maybe with the people that you share the most time with them on your most intimately connected with, you can talk and communicate on a different level that it's just like any stranger you could like, try to get your point across, try to express whatever you try to express. But like with your brothers and you're like, you're like family. It's like it's, you might have a different level of connection there that extends beyond just like, words. You know what I'm saying? Yes, yes I do. It's weird bro. I saw this super deep conspiracy theory IG page post. They were deep talking about how words like, maybe we weren't ever supposed to use words. Words are like spells that bind us to our body. There's spells. I've seen that type of shit, you know what I'm saying? And then they say, like how? Yeah, like government. Like, how they go crazy. But the takeaway that I legitimately thought that this guy was like, yeah, we're not we're not even supposed to use words like words slows us down. It brings us into like this frequency where like we have to determine vocal chords and like, understand and perceive. It's like we were supposed to just talk with our minds. It's like we got convinced to use words. And I was like, I don't know, man. There's times where I feel like maybe if if we all just didn't talk, if we had to communicate with like our sense of feel and touch, like sometimes like that's a sometimes I just know what you're going to say before you say it. I don't know if it's just because like a predictability I generating like I'm around you so much I don't recognition right. But there's other times where I think I just feel it, you know what I'm saying? Like, I know where you're going to go with something, and then I, like, pause and then you go there and I'm like, it's so funny to me. And I don't know, man. I haven't even one of her dreams, actually, the other day that you mentioned it, like she was like she she had a dream. Maybe it was two nights ago. Yeah. It was like two nights ago. Maybe. And she was like, yeah, I had a I had a weird dream. And in our dream we like, adopted like a little, like African baby or like, you know, and then like in the dream, you're like, oh, like a little brown sugar baby. Like that. You can't say that. And I was like, that is so something I would say, like adopted an African child. But it was like, it's funny that your, your mental perception of me like, knew what I would say, like knew the joke that I would make, you know what I'm saying? Yeah. Yeah, I do too. Sometimes. So weird. I don't know, maybe it's a Seinfeld energy you have. Like, you've always been like a comic relief in your spirit. So, like, maybe that's why we're, like, anticipatory. We're like, well, what? It's just going to say the joke. He's going to say, yeah, totally. Like you're just good at identifying the joke, you know what I'm saying? So we can identify you identifying the joke. I don't know. Yeah. It was like, I just thought it was trippy that, like, her dream representation of me was like. Because, like, I didn't make that joke. She made that joke. You know what I'm saying? In her, in her dream. But it was like through the lens of my mouth and my character. And I was like, that's so weird. Like, that's so strange. That's a mind fuck, dude. That's a mind fuck no, cuz it's crazy. Just smile burst straight mind a little. This, George w shrub. Oh, man. Yeah, I don't get it. The. Those are the people. Yeah. We we could pot for until the end of eternity, but fucking love you all so much for being here, James. I guess one thing that's one thing I want to touch it on to, like, the dream talk that I've been talking about is that we've been. I think we have access. I remember hearing about this on Joe Rogan, but like, whenever you smoke because we used to, you know, have some has some vitamins, you know, have some grown out of the ground from fun times and get into that mental place. But like whenever, whenever you're when we, we we cut it out for lent. So lens been going on since March 5th. So it's been like almost a month of no smoking at all. Sober, sober March type shit. Hell yeah. And whenever I've done this, times in the past where I take a break from smoking and then whenever I do so, it takes a couple days, maybe a week to get acclimated. It's like the brain waves. But whenever you do smoke, I've heard on Joe Rogan from a guy like a sleep expert that if you do, I think might be alcohol as well. Alcohol and weed, whatever you some whatever mental stimulant you use, it could hinder your ability to fall into the deepest like brainwave of sleep. And in those deepest brainwaves of sleep is where you have like the craziest, most vivid, lucid dreams. And since we've cut that break off like this whole month, I've been having, like, those crazy dreams where it's like, I'm. I'm there. And like, I know that I'm there and I'm like, I know that I'm dreaming. I don't have control of the dream. Like a full, lucid dream where I could, like, fucking do this fucking take flight. But like, there's there's multiple points where I'm like, oh, I'm dreaming right now. This isn't conscious life. This is still real. But it's not conscious reality. It's not what I deem to be real, but it is happening and I'm fucking interpreting it. And I'm here right now and this is happening. Yeah. Doesn't make any sense. Exactly. But it's definitely happening and I'm able to interpret it. But I feel that dream place, and I think that place is real as fuck. And our mental kind of what we're talking a little bit earlier, it was like our mental, our mind. We don't even know what that is. Bro. We don't even know what that is to the fullest extent. And I don't think we ever will like until we die and we get all the information revealed to us. Totally. And how this conscious, unconscious, subconscious mind brain thing works. So like that place is real. If you want to get some crazy dreams, get a good night's sleep and don't smoke, don't drink, you know, have some crazy dreams. It's it's like going to Six Flags, but it's like your own country every night and going to sleep, like, where am I going to go tonight? Yeah. Yes. It's insane bro. Where am I going to go in this evening? Insane. Yeah. I literally was in a dream like, this is not life. Like, I'm, I couldn't put my. I couldn't figure out I'm dreaming. I was like, this is not real life. Did you guys dose me with LSD? Like, I think someone dosed me because this is not, well, tripping right now. I am tripping like things are like, I'm seeing this, but I think it means this. I don't think I'm really seeing this. And, I mean, that's exactly what a dream is. Yeah. And like, I'm processing that in the dream, like, this is a representation of something else, but it's not the reality of what it is. What the fuck, dude? You know what I'm saying? Like crazy, bro. Yeah. Yeah, man. Take care of those Mentos. Yeah. Dream big, dream big, baby. The biggest dream, biggest dreams. Share with the friend. Like. Comment. Subscribe. We love y'all.
