Welcome back to All Tricks, no Treats. It's been a minute again.
Speaker 2:It's been more than a minute, it's been an hour. This is a month. Pretty much We've been busy.
Speaker 1:Like always the same old excuse, but we really have. We went on a trip, another trip, the kids started school.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Help me out here.
Speaker 2:There's been a lot going on. That's actually some of the things we're catching up on. The kids started school, and usually it's just. We've been used to just champ, but now Bubby as well has started school.
Speaker 1:It's been pretty crazy because we're in our new city and the school is a couple blocks away, so we have been walking them, which is nice, but I love that.
Speaker 2:I love like we get up. I mean it's a little hectic.
Speaker 1:Hard is the word.
Speaker 2:It's a little hectic for us, it's just, you know how we are, but we just walk to school and you know. Champ Bubby, mr Nichols, they're all right there with us.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's just been weird because we're not really used to the city yet. It's been almost a year, but the kids in a new school it's kind of like adjusting still.
Speaker 2:It doesn't feel like. It feels like a temporary phase, kind of right.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it doesn't feel like home home, like the home school. It doesn't feel like oh yeah, that's what. We can't rep it yet I think it's. We're not. We haven't paid our dues yet in that school. No, yeah, we haven't donated enough, yet and went to PTA meeting.
Speaker 2:We're recycling. They have like a recycling drive every Friday, which is pretty cool and it's part of their like beautification for their school. They use the money for that, to do the you know add to the school. And we were just saying, like what if we show up and like we dump out our bag and it's just like cans of but ice A?
Speaker 1:bunch of beer bottles and cans. I was kind of irritated because we've never been big on recycling cans and bottles and when we moved in I bought like three bins and I'm like I'm going to show Champ and Bobby how to recycle and the money we get will be for them, so they, I guess, could learn. And then it's just like a little trader Joe's bag.
Speaker 2:It's just a small brown bag. Now we have to take it.
Speaker 1:I'm like, oh, there's 40 cents Going into the schools away from your pocket.
Speaker 2:sorry, the kids pocket.
Speaker 1:but it was just funny, funny thought, I think.
Speaker 2:But it's cool because I don't know why they take the kids names. Maybe they enter them in something.
Speaker 1:Sure.
Speaker 2:So, but it's, it's part of community for us. Yeah, we're trying to be a part of it. We are.
Speaker 1:We've met some people too around here. Yeah, some cool people, some neighbors, and it's like whoa? This is weird, because we hate everyone pretty much.
Speaker 2:They're very anti-social.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so it's, it's good.
Speaker 2:Yeah, our neighbors are super cool.
Speaker 1:They were just over yesterday for Labor Day and their kids that were swimming, we were barbecuing and, yeah, it was a great time.
Speaker 2:It's good to have that community.
Speaker 1:Yeah, for sure.
Speaker 2:So, as I said, the kids have started school. So I just want to have bring up a little talk that I had with Bubby. Let's hear it. I told you I've sent it to you before like one time we were drawing and I drew like a house and flowers, and then Bubby said mommy, I would just want to preface this Our kids are fine, our kids are happy. No one needs to be alerted what's happening.
Speaker 2:But we were drawing. I drew a flower in a house and she looked at my. She said, mommy, yours is boring.
Speaker 1:What.
Speaker 2:I went okay, what did you draw? And I looked at it and it was a woman with X's over her eyes. Oh no. And she said oh, she's dead and there's a beard. She can't say her L's. She says why is for L's? So she said, and there's a beard coming out of her mouth. I went oh okay, why do you want to draw? She was like, oh, I don't know. And then she, just like you know, skips away all happy.
Speaker 1:Played with her Barbies after.
Speaker 2:So I did have a talk with her before we started school and I told her you know, at school we don't talk about butt cheeks, because butt cheeks are a big thing.
Speaker 1:It's a big fucking topic.
Speaker 2:Yeah, we don't talk about butt cheeks and we don't draw dead people. And I said we can draw dead people at home. You know, while we're expressing ourselves at home, that's fine, I said, but when we're at school, we do not draw dead people or talk about butt cheeks.
Speaker 1:and that was a topic, if I was someone hearing this or like I was telling a story. They'd be like I'm not surprised that your kids doing that, because she's very into pink and like princesses and Barbies, but she loves Halloween and Michael Myers and Freddy Krueger and draws fucking gnarly things. Yeah, hey, she draws some good shit, though.
Speaker 2:Hey, she's an artist, super good stuff. Yeah, she's an artist.
Speaker 1:I made a little video when we took her to her first day of school and they have crayons and paper set up. Half of the kids are crying and all these kids were like scribbling and she was drawing like a super and I even posted it on my story and it was super nice and I was like, yeah, I zoomed in on hers and then I showed all the other kids and I was like ah see she's a better drawer, but she is very artistic.
Speaker 2:She is and she just expresses herself.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so I just wanted to, you know, talk about that. And then we went to Boston.
Speaker 1:Yes.
Speaker 2:Can we cheers to Boston.
Speaker 1:Cheers to Boston baby.
Speaker 2:It's my. I think that's our home away from home.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:It's just.
Speaker 1:I think Brianna said can we buy a house here like 10 times probably?
Speaker 2:I honestly. I even told my friend Bri Brinkley, because she's a Boston girl at heart. I was like I'm trying to convince Chris, we'll get a house.
Speaker 1:Everyone can come over. Yeah, all right, yay, okay.
Speaker 2:But it was fun. The moment we got there was raining.
Speaker 1:It was raining out. It rained last time we went to. We haven't been since 2017.
Speaker 2:When we got engaged, yeah.
Speaker 1:And it was raining when we landed too, so it was like super, like, weird, crazy.
Speaker 2:It was beautiful, it was amazing, it was kind of humid, but it was still nice.
Speaker 1:We woke up to a downpour of rain and it was like you open the door and you're like dude, this is this, is it, this is life. We made it the East Coast.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:So we went with a group called Pantone. I'm sure a lot of you guys know they're like a Dodger Traveling team. I'm not really a Dodger fan. Well and the thing is, my business partner is a diehard Dodger fan and I've been traveling with him this last couple years to different stadiums because they have, like this traveling group and Boston's their biggest show up. It was like 2000 people that came and we walked the streets. It was sick right.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it was cool.
Speaker 1:And I'm not really a Dodger fan, but like, if I see him, I'll be like, yeah, I want them to win right. But I had like a black LA hat, but the LA was like really small, so I don't consider it like a Dodger hat, okay. And then I had an LA Kings shirt and all my friends like were DMing me like you're a bitch, you're a fake fan.
Speaker 2:They were.
Speaker 1:Like a few AJ couple of my friends and I'm like dude, look at what I'm wearing. I'm wearing Kings gear, even like a Boston OG. Some old ass white dude was like oh, I'm a Kings fan. I was like remember.
Speaker 2:Yeah, no, yeah. He was like, oh, it's good to see a Kings fan in these parts. I was like what the heck this?
Speaker 1:guy's a Kings fan. He's like this is our year and I'm like dude, I cry every year we losing the plows but I hope we make it far. But it was sick. Boston is. We went to Salem where we proposed. We were only there for a couple hours but it was good to see a couple of the witch house and tombstones and yeah these coast is a vibe. Yeah, it's very especially around this time.
Speaker 2:It's very brown and folly and dead, which is our dark and dead. Anyway, we've been, we've been pretty busy, we have yeah, I mean we're not making excuses, we need to be here more.
Speaker 1:We were doing pretty good hitting the table, yeah we were doing good, but dude, she just happens yeah we'll keep up, we'll keep up. Okay, we'll try.
Speaker 2:And the last thing we were in the airport I heard something. I went to go buy a book and I came back and I told you. I said I heard this dad say something and I want to talk about it.
Speaker 1:She hasn't told me since, and it's been like what? Two weeks.
Speaker 2:Did you? Were you remember?
Speaker 1:I remember you telling me. I'm not going to tell you.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I was like he he.
Speaker 1:Okay.
Speaker 2:So I walked past his family and this mom walked away from these, I think two kids and a husband and when I was walking past them, this dad said did you guys eat food? No, because he's answered no, he's like no. Okay, I guess mommy will feed us all on the plane. And I went oh wow, did you?
Speaker 1:say that's me.
Speaker 2:I said, oh, you're such a dad, and I think that's what the mom walked away to do, like she walked away to like take care of something, like you know then the dad was panicking.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and that's, oh no.
Speaker 2:And the. But the way he just talked to the kids like so nonchalant, like you eat food, no like he, like he didn't know, like a stranger, yeah like you guys, did you eat? No we'll. We'll be fed on the plane, guys.
Speaker 1:It's so crazy because someone like you or a mom would react the way you just did, and then me and like it makes sense yeah.
Speaker 2:The way he communicated is, I think, especially when traveling, like moms, you know, know, like this, this, this, this is what's got to be done, this what's needs to be had. It was probably panicking Maybe. I think that's what it was. It was like a panic conversation Like um, so did you guys eat?
Speaker 1:No, Do you know what food?
Speaker 2:How's everyone feeling tonight, oh?
Speaker 1:man.
Speaker 2:That was a. I just wanted to bring that up because I thought it was a good. You know it was normal conversation.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it was a good little like family thing, that we can all relate to. That's so funny.
Speaker 2:Our topic for today is the friends. Oh, you're not entering the friends.
Speaker 1:That's a scary place to be Is it Fuck yeah, that's a shitty place to be. That's how I feel when I'm watching a the Twilight Zone. I'm like, oh, my emotions are weird. It feels weird, but uh, yeah, the friends don't sucks.
Speaker 2:So the friends zone. I just have a few like little examples. I just want to be best friends. You're like my best bud.
Speaker 1:This is my best friend.
Speaker 2:Yeah, or even worse. You're like a brother or sister to me, oh my.
Speaker 1:God, those are the worst.
Speaker 2:Have you heard any of those?
Speaker 1:Not, I not like said to me but I didn't even know if I've heard people tell like some of my friends out but that's just like. Uh, you see videos and you see like.
Speaker 2:That's like the ultimate friend zone, like experience, like that's the cliche experience.
Speaker 1:It's crazy, because there's people who hear that and then they still like stick around and do, yeah, they think there's hope. But once you hear those lines like you're my best friend, you're my brother, it's like dude, you're fucking, you're dead, you're dead pretty much, there's no coming back.
Speaker 2:No, fuck, I mean there has to be some positive thoughts.
Speaker 1:I mean, there's time. I'm sure there's. I'm sure there's a time people have come back from hearing that, but it might be rare, that's super rare, to hear Kiwi. Have you friends with anybody? Have you used the brother line or the friend?
Speaker 2:No, no, I don't think I've ever consciously friends on someone. I think I've. I've told you this before I'm really bad. I was really bad at like reading signals, like I think some people liked me and I just didn't really realize it, like I'm. I'm a very like introverted person, so I always saw like, oh no, like he's, he's, you know, just him.
Speaker 1:So were there people you now that you think, oh, maybe they liked me and were you into them?
Speaker 2:No.
Speaker 1:So you know what you're doing. You fucking war.
Speaker 2:I don't know. No, I just now that I think back on it and I think even back then, like there were times like now, I think about the times they texted me. I was like, oh, I think he was asking me out.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I think, like I think you're playing dumb. No you're a pretty smart person no.
Speaker 1:You didn't do that to me. You're spawning every fucking the split second after I texted you. Sorry, not sorry, yeah, but it's harsh. You know, even if you hear, even if I see a video, it's like damn, this fucking poor guy. You know, and especially if you're like out at a party or the restaurant I've seen videos of people saying that and you're like destroyed here, like the guy is always like fuck and it's always the guy, it's never really the girl.
Speaker 2:That's what I have in a note like it can be both people, because I did see a Article that said how to friend zone your best girlfriend without hurting her feelings. So it can be a guy and a girl, like you don't hear of the girls, really, though. You don't like? Yes, like I said, cliche is very. You know the guy pining after the girl. But, it happens to every. It can happen to everyone.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I agree.
Speaker 2:There's no bias, so so the definition of the friend zone is this is from Cambridge Dictionary the state of being friends with someone when you would prefer a romantic or sexual relationship with them that's specific. This is no specific, no specificity specificity yes, serendipity. Oh, curiosity. So usually one party is friend-zoned and that person usually wants to. You know, quote unquote get out, get out like the movie. Get out of the friend zone.
Speaker 2:Yeah um, by becoming a potential, like you know, romantic partner, like moving forward where they want to, which is very hard to do.
Speaker 1:My only advice, though, would be you hear all these fucking Instagram motivation. Guys say this, but it's true. If a girl, if you're young and are even old and a girlfriend zones you, you say, like fucker, and you worry about yourself, you transform yourself in every aspect of your life and then, when you're at a fucking top tier level, there might be a chance where she's like dang, look at this guy now and you say no.
Speaker 1:Yeah, well, you can make one or two decisions. You could say all right and Hook up or go out with her, or you could say Fuck you and move on wasn't that the premise of Drive me crazy I? Don't remember.
Speaker 2:See no the most Joan Hart, adrian Grignet.
Speaker 1:No, I don't know.
Speaker 2:A good 90s girl movie. Actually, you're a girl, a good girls.
Speaker 1:I'm a girl.
Speaker 2:Good, well, you like me in this day and age. You know you like a lot of good girls, 90 movies but I can't really haven't seen driving crazy.
Speaker 1:Who's in?
Speaker 2:that most Joan Hart, adrian Grignet.
Speaker 1:Who's that guy? The white guy with the curly hair, with the green eyes? He?
Speaker 2:was in. What's that show?
Speaker 1:on terash, on terash yeah but that's.
Speaker 2:I think that was kind of it like they were neighbors, casual neighbors, but then like someone got like a Makeover and then all of a sudden he was like the it boy of high school. That sounds like a she's all that oh yeah, but that was different because that was a bet.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but she fucking whoo, whoo Damn she was.
Speaker 2:Yeah, Rachel, she was nice yeah.
Speaker 1:Hell yeah.
Speaker 2:Yeah, for Freda Prince Jr, all Paul Walker's in that movie too.
Speaker 1:He was a dick in a movie, so many good, so many good people in that movie.
Speaker 2:So unfortunately it does have a negative connotation. Being in the friend zone We've all heard like we said a lot of things, like someone waiting to come out, but is it bad? Do you think it's bad? Do you think the friend zone is bad?
Speaker 1:Mmm, if you're like, actively trying to pursue someone is bad.
Speaker 2:Okay, so I have a couple perspectives. So one is, putting someone in the friend zone in a compassionate but definitive way is Far from being a negative thing. It can actually be beneficial for the other person. It lets them know where they stand without leading them on. It also signals that you respect them enough to be honest with them. So essentially it's like setting boundaries.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's the adult thing to do, yeah if you do it the right way, like set your boundaries beforehand or the moment you see someone like kind of like creeping towards you. Like wanting more.
Speaker 1:That can be, you know, positive thing but I don't think saying you're my brother or you're my best friend no, but not everyone says that.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I think before you get to that point, you should be a grown-up and say I mean I see you as a good friend and not embarrass them in front of anybody. You know, because if you're saying that, you're saying it in front of people, you know, like you're not just telling them that, and maybe you are, but it's usually in front of a lot of people and you're like holy fuck, I just got buried right here. So I think a better way is to say In private I just see you as a friend. Or I mean, I don't want this to affect our friendship. I still want to be friends, but that's a better way of going about it, I think like attacking the situation.
Speaker 1:Yeah, right on, yes okay, yeah.
Speaker 2:So another perspective and this is just coming off from a lot of different things I've read was stringing someone along like a continuous, like. Maybe it could happen.
Speaker 1:Don't mind those grunting noise. We have a dog now randomly. We'll touch bases about that later.
Speaker 2:But anyway, it's my dog.
Speaker 1:That's the grumpy fucking growler over there You're just stretching. Yeah, don't worry about it.
Speaker 2:So stringing things along An endless, maybe giving hope that things will work out. Yeah, that sucks do like the right thing, it might happen like that's the bad thing like and this is when I remember you showed me that video of.
Speaker 1:Satra, satra, be quiet. I'm a dick. I hate that guy, I hate the idea of him. He's actually been okay.
Speaker 2:Yeah. Yeah lay down.
Speaker 1:Lay down Satra or jump off the couch.
Speaker 2:He doesn't care what you say. Um, just go, he's gonna go.
Speaker 1:ASMR dog feet.
Speaker 2:Yeah, dog feet, okay, okay so.
Speaker 1:Oh, stringing them along.
Speaker 2:So stringing them along like, and I thought of that video. Remember you showed me that one video where the comedian Referred to two people in his audience and oh yeah.
Speaker 1:She was like, oh, it's my best friend.
Speaker 2:He was like oh, it's your best friend, do he pay for everything? And she was like oh, yeah, he's like, okay, well, I'm gonna move him to this table with like a single girl. Yeah, he's like, are you single?
Speaker 1:And she's like, yeah, he's like well, sit over there then. And then that girl's face was like Bitch face and he's you shouldn't be mad, like you should fuck, like let him do his thing, be, get your friends back. And I don't really like comedy, but I love when they do that interaction and that one was like holy shit, that was fucking, that was for the friend, the friend's owners, yeah.
Speaker 2:I mean, and that's when it comes to a point where it's like, if it comes, if it comes to that, then you, you know it's too much.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that's the negative aspect.
Speaker 2:That's the negative aspect of it is if you're someone who is making them pay for everything, stringing them along.
Speaker 1:That should suck. That girl's a bitch.
Speaker 2:I mean, we don't know the whole, we just saw like what one minute of it?
Speaker 1:Yeah, but she fucking exposed herself.
Speaker 2:She said the she, she straight out said, she said all the wrong things.
Speaker 1:She said all the wrong answers. She said they're friends. She said they never had sex he asked him that yeah, and she said, uh, uh, she's, he's paying for everything. Those three strikes, you're out, bitch. Go to the next girl, fuck her ump umpire, God.
Speaker 2:Sorry, pan tone Okay anyways next um. So we have a few tips on how you get out of the friend zone.
Speaker 1:Mm-hmm.
Speaker 2:What are they really?
Speaker 1:tips, oh, my god, friend zone first tip for boys grow a pair of balls and say I'm out, this bitch. That should be the only thing you do if you're in the family feelings relax.
Speaker 2:All right, I guess so let's get a little touchy feel yeah so the first one is reprioritize things. What commitments are you making to them? So the person that has put you in the friend zone that you wouldn't make to any other friend, don't put them on a pedestal 100% make priority number one you hey, that sounds like what I just said.
Speaker 1:Grow a pair of balls.
Speaker 2:Um yes. No, no. Next is raise your confidence. Try working on your own hobbies. Find a good self-help book. Find a class that you like.
Speaker 1:The class is good. Chill out with the self-help stuff.
Speaker 2:Just because you're not okay with it doesn't mean other people can't.
Speaker 1:I'm not okay with it, please don't lie now.
Speaker 2:I'm not, I'm not right now.
Speaker 1:I'm for self-help Right now I'm trying to better myself and working out and like trying to be a little more confident. But self-help books, that's kind of why not?
Speaker 2:Why can't you learn from a book?
Speaker 1:Because I think people already know what to do to better themselves. Why do you need to read a book about it?
Speaker 2:But people need to learn. If we all thought what we knew was the best, then we would never learn. So, learning from other people's perspectives, who have other ways of thinking, we can learn from them. It doesn't mean we need to take what they say and, you know, run with it. We need to just see other perspectives and that's where we learn from ourselves, learn from each other.
Speaker 1:Sure.
Speaker 2:Okay, but yeah, raise your confidence. Find a class, find a book, find a dog Anyone want a dog, anyone want a.
Speaker 1:Holy shit, the dog's free. There he comes. Yay, hi Jay, yay, I love you. I love having a dog That'll be a story, Sasha go lay down, don't come this way. I pointed the opposite way, he thinks you're calling him. Okay, move on, hurry up, let's go.
Speaker 2:Okay. Next one is become the ideal partner you would want. Visualize the qualities you'd like in a romantic partner. Are they, Rick Cook? How do they respond to people's emotions? Are they kind? You know, what do they like to do? Those are pretty good yeah instead of waiting for them to come, work on these qualities for yourself.
Speaker 1:I think that comes in hand with you doing that. And then they see you do all that stuff and they're like, oh, this guy's like doing what he needs to do, or this girl's doing what she needs to do. Like what I said before is you forget about them and then just worry about you for a little bit, and then sometimes they'll see you and be like holy shit, this guy's like killing you or like whatever you get me right, yeah, yeah, that's kind of like that, okay.
Speaker 2:Next one is Next one is don't overdo it.
Speaker 1:Hold on real quick, sinatra. Go lay down, go lay down. Can you go tell them yeah, come here Jesus.
Speaker 2:Come here.
Speaker 1:Go close the door in our room. Man, that guy, what are you walking around for? I want to walk around.
Speaker 2:The next one is don't work too hard. Stop trying to impress them. Don't showboat them, just let them come to you. Like be you, be you. Let whoever you are come out. If it attracts them, then great, but don't try to like change yourself.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I think you should definitely be natural and let them be attracted to your natural self, not like Don't try to always pay for shit or try to be cute all the time. It might be too much for them too.
Speaker 2:It's like a facade, Like you don't want to constantly like have to live up to something every single day just for this person.
Speaker 1:Yeah one up yourself every time Like oh, I did this last time, Now I need to do this.
Speaker 2:It's exhausting.
Speaker 1:I'm sure. I'm sure it is for those fucking weak ass fools who do all this shit.
Speaker 2:Oh, please.
Speaker 1:What.
Speaker 2:Don't act like you never did this for someone.
Speaker 1:Who.
Speaker 2:Don't act like there weren't times where you were trying Hoof. There's a hoove in this thing. There's a hoove.
Speaker 1:Fuck everybody. I saw what I wanted and I got it.
Speaker 2:Maybe you can come with that Ariana Grande song. I want it, I got it, I see it.
Speaker 1:I'm Ariana Grande.
Speaker 2:Please don't be.
Speaker 1:She kind of sucks, actually Fuck Ariana Grande.
Speaker 2:Next one is look for other great people.
Speaker 1:Try to make her jealous. That's a good one, no.
Speaker 2:That's so good. The person should not be your whole intention.
Speaker 1:I mean, yeah, I guess, but that's fun though.
Speaker 2:It's fun trying to make someone jealous. It's like well, I mean, if they treat you as a friend.
Speaker 1:it's fun to make them jealous. Yeah, exactly, damn, another, fly in here. Becca around, just kidding.
Speaker 2:Anyway, is that where your gun is right here?
Speaker 1:We have a saw gun because there's a fucking fly flying around this bitch, I can't know. You left it on the table. I was trying to be slick because we put a pepperoni in the front of the table.
Speaker 2:So he did. It was a bait.
Speaker 1:If it was right there. I was just going to slide it over like this Look, I'm just you thought you could shoot it from there. I was just going to push the bill. I was going to go oh bunk, get his ass, fucking asshole, fly Anyway.
Speaker 2:OK, so don't put all your eggs in one basket. You might end up disappointed.
Speaker 1:Yes, that's always a tip we have, like dating, like anything.
Speaker 2:Yeah, keep your options open.
Speaker 1:Yeah, always keep your options open, yeah.
Speaker 2:And last this is the last point Make your intentions known. If you are the person who wants to be in something more than just friends, Don't tip to over your feelings. It just needs to be talked about.
Speaker 1:I agree.
Speaker 2:Ask them out, tell them you're interested, don't wait. But the biggest mistake people make is just trying to convince the other person that they're good enough.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:So I know it's easier said than done, but know your worth, you know.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I think everything we talk about obviously is easier said than done, Like people tell you tips and tricks or relationships. All the tricks and life in general, but doing all this shit is fucking hard. It's not just like straightforward, it's tricky.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's feelings.
Speaker 1:Feelings are definitely a hard thing to navigate, but try your best to follow some guidelines at least so you don't shoot yourself in the foot and look like a fucking idiot, which sucks. I feel like nobody should feel like that. But I think even if you go through that, that helps you learn still. That helps you grow and move on and in the next relationship you know what not to do. And in finding you hear Sinatra still, that fucking asshole's outside, he can still hear his bitch out, he wants to be part of the podcast the guy's going to.
Speaker 1:the gate's going to be left open tonight.
Speaker 2:All right, you won't leave. You'll come out and be like ah, He'll be singing. You'll be like hello. He'll be scratching at the door and be like oh no, the gate's open. And I'll be like oh no, I just want you to know, close it.
Speaker 1:Fucking god dude.
Speaker 2:But yeah, just for yourself, know your worth. Don't ever try to convince someone that you're the best thing for them. And it's hard, don't get friend zoned, especially on camera. Be aware at all times Like the kiss cam.
Speaker 1:Yeah, oh, those are funny too. And it's like people barely dating and they try to kiss but someone pulls away. Oh, that shit's fucking. It's hilarious, but it's sad for that person. But, yeah, always be aware of you being in the friend zone, because it's not a nice place to be.
Speaker 2:Just look out for yourself. Look out for yourself.
Speaker 1:Yeah, fuck everyone, especially if someone you like who calls you a brother or a friend or something.
Speaker 2:But also that's wild. There are some people who do it see it as oh Pfft.
Speaker 1:Ha ha ha, it's dog Pishing you right off.
Speaker 2:There are some people who see it as oh well, I'm nice to them, so they owe it to me to be interested in me romantically. So that's also a negative aspect of it. So, people don't owe you anything as well. The fly, hold on, turn the gun. No, he's Wait. Where is?
Speaker 1:he, he's right here, he's not in sight.
Speaker 2:How do you know he's here? Where are you Not?
Speaker 1:inside of the front of the gun.
Speaker 2:Oh, is he by the gun?
Speaker 1:He's right here Is he taunting us.
Speaker 2:He's on the gun.
Speaker 1:Oh, what are you? I thought that'd kill him. I thought rubbing the gun out he's going for the perv Give me the gun, give me the gun.
Speaker 2:No, you're not getting it.
Speaker 1:I'm going to do my plan. I kill them, every time I kill them every time, so I don't look dumb on camera like this Please.
Speaker 2:Oh look, he's going after the grease.
Speaker 1:There was no salt, Come and do it now. No, I'm doing it OK.
Speaker 2:Terminator.
Speaker 1:My arm hurts.
Speaker 2:Wait, wait. You waited too long.
Speaker 1:Oh my God, there he goes and here we stay.
Speaker 2:All I saw was salt.
Speaker 1:Why was there no salt in that fucking round?
Speaker 2:There was. You just don't have a good aim.
Speaker 1:You're about to hear. Now you've learned.
Speaker 2:Wow, now you've learned. Now you've learned.
Speaker 1:I feel like this is a friend's own situation. Now I'm in the next step, so I have to adjust.
Speaker 2:You know I have to aim.
Speaker 1:Damn that pepperoni was good. Good job though.
Speaker 2:Good play.
Speaker 1:Not a good execution. We'll get there I did almost break my elbow. That's why I couldn't.
Speaker 2:I probably look like a bitch trying to load it. You're at a wedding.
Speaker 1:Yes, and I try to jump over this table. I said watch this.
Speaker 2:Yeah, no, literally. I thought of what was his name Stuart from Matt TV.
Speaker 1:Look at me, Look at me and I try to jump over this memory table where they keep all the fucking dead people.
Speaker 2:OK, but they weren't there. They weren't there, though. They would keep the dead people on the table, they'd just keep memories, like pictures of them.
Speaker 1:And I was like drunk and I was like I could jump. I looked at it like for 30 minutes. I said, I could jump that bitch.
Speaker 2:This is why I say I have four kids.
Speaker 1:And I told her we were dancing and I said watch this. And she's like what? And I run the step before the table, something I tripped over, something was on the floor I could have cleared that bitch and I flew over, tripped on the table, the whole table flew over and I landed on my elbow, broke my elbow, and I've been trying to get my strength back, so that's why I couldn't reload this.
Speaker 2:So don't see.
Speaker 1:Oh, that's why Don't look at that and see he can't load that salt gun. My arm is broken, so I needed a trained change If your arm is broken.
Speaker 2:I don't think you can.
Speaker 1:Well, it's been a month so I can't put pressure on. I can't do a push-up. I used to blow 100 push-ups.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, he was the push-up king, but now.
Speaker 1:You wouldn't know.
Speaker 2:But now.
Speaker 1:You wouldn't know, I'm a push-up king. Anyway, my elbow hurts. Don't judge me on that fucking reason. My elbow hurts, ok. Next.
Speaker 2:So next is ask win.
Speaker 1:Holy shit, so I spent, I forgot about that.
Speaker 2:Oh, we got one more.
Speaker 1:Hit it Hurry.
Speaker 2:You have to hit it a lot. What are things you should not admit to a girl you just started dating, even if it's true?
Speaker 1:Let you have kids for one. I think that's pretty. That's too early, you know. Until you get to really know them, then sure. But if you're just trying to hook up or do something, why are you going to tell me if kids in room hold it? Oh OK.
Speaker 2:Well, if it's hookup, that's different than dating.
Speaker 1:I mean both.
Speaker 2:I think not the first, yes, but definitely early on. You can't lead them on until it's like what, six months in and be like OK.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that's the only time let's hear what some people say.
Speaker 2:See, this little boy behind me, it's mine.
Speaker 1:That's your kid, that's your step kid.
Speaker 2:Hey Zaddy, don't talk about your sex life on a first date please. I don't want to know about your last orgy.
Speaker 1:That's weird.
Speaker 2:Yeah. Once had a guy tell me all about his recent divorce and how much he loves his ex-wife. I'd say that's a don't on a first date.
Speaker 1:That's definitely a don't, but I hear that more than not.
Speaker 2:I feel like this Not even just ex -wifes, but like exes in general Exes yeah, yeah. How you've taken multiple Tinder dates to the same restaurant as me. How you love checking out girls' asses. How other girls are attractive, how my friends are hot All the same guy, by the way.
Speaker 1:Damn that guy's a fucking idiot.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's someone who's trying to overcompensate from being in the friend zone, I feel like, if me and you didn't work out, none of us would be on Tinder.
Speaker 1:I don't think I mean, I don't think I would.
Speaker 2:No, I definitely would not.
Speaker 1:I'd be single forever. No, me too. You wouldn't shut up.
Speaker 2:Please, you're so fucking annoying. I'm not. I don't know how to talk to people. I don't like people.
Speaker 1:You're so stupid.
Speaker 2:I'm not approachable, no.
Speaker 1:Go on the next one for your soccer bitch guys.
Speaker 2:Okay, go Never. Ever tell her the last time you had sex and who with, especially if it was this morning.
Speaker 1:That's so crazy.
Speaker 2:I'm not like think.
Speaker 1:And I'm assuming these people are older, right Like not older, but late 20s, mid 20s. I mean, we don't know, you don't use your fucking brain Like you don't think.
Speaker 2:I think it's, I know, even if you're like in your you know early 20s.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:I feel like in my early 20s I would not have had this conversation.
Speaker 1:It's common sense. Well, it's a different world now, Like that's a norm for the younger 20s, that's a norm to be like.
Speaker 2:Oh, I had sex this morning, yes.
Speaker 1:For those kids. Yes, Imagine what our kids are going to be saying they're not going to be talking English when they're trying to fucking date a girl.
Speaker 2:That's going to be the idea.
Speaker 1:Oh, no, oh no, is that going to be the idea?
Speaker 2:I don't know. We're going to communicate and laugh, and yes, and laugh.
Speaker 1:You're so stupid.
Speaker 2:Like why are you itching? You're like making me itchy, but I have so many mosquito bites from last night.
Speaker 1:My legs are itchy.
Speaker 2:So not to agree. And last is hot cars.
Speaker 1:Oh, that was it for those. Yeah, what are some things you think you shouldn't say?
Speaker 2:I think you most definitely should not talk about a past relationship right away, especially if it was very serious.
Speaker 1:I think all the above on all those you don't talk about all that, or?
Speaker 2:even bodily functions For a guy to be like. Oh man, I just took a huge dump in that restaurant.
Speaker 1:I think if the topic of sex came up, I'd definitely roast myself and be like 30 seconds top. So that's what you have to worry about Keep them guessing. Not guessing. I'm spitting facts, but I'm hoping they take it as a joke, and then no yeah, no, yeah, that's hard. Yeah.
Speaker 2:OK, next is hot cars Gosh. Oh.
Speaker 1:A tenor banger.
Speaker 2:Hit it with a different note. Ok, the first one is pumpkin spices back. We are approaching fall.
Speaker 1:We love all things fall.
Speaker 2:Like we said, we love black and dead, so we love fall.
Speaker 1:Is this considered hot gauze?
Speaker 2:It is for me because Starbucks' new drink iced pumpkin cream, chai tea latte.
Speaker 1:So I don't give a shit about Starbucks. For some reason this last couple of months, that's all you talk about the Starbucks. I'm obsessed.
Speaker 2:I've never loved it either.
Speaker 1:I'm pissed, I don't care about.
Speaker 2:Please, we've only got there like one we used to hate.
Speaker 1:Starbucks together. And now that's one last thing we can relate to OK.
Speaker 2:Caramel Maki Otto.
Speaker 1:I only get that when you go, I'm just like, yeah, give me the. Oh yeah, give me the Caramel Caramel, by the way, Caramel Maki Otto OK that's going to be a topic on it. I mean they're good, but I'm not going to say let's go to Starbucks. I never say let's go to Starbucks, but last time you said that we need to go to Starbucks.
Speaker 2:No, last time I was popping out of your head. Can we drive?
Speaker 1:there.
Speaker 2:But what do we do Not? We did not drive Last time. We didn't go, actually, when I was putting my stuff away.
Speaker 1:I was like I feel bad. We didn't fucking go to fucking Starbucks.
Speaker 2:I thought we told me this morning.
Speaker 1:I did so yeah.
Speaker 2:Oh, you're cute, but pumpkin spice is back. That's good for all the basic bitches.
Speaker 1:Now you can get it whenever you want.
Speaker 2:We love it. A PSL man.
Speaker 1:Yes, sure, whenever that is.
Speaker 2:Pumpkin spice latte, oh yes.
Speaker 1:OK, that means OK.
Speaker 2:And the next one is Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis. They listed their house on Airbnb.
Speaker 1:I think that's weird.
Speaker 2:Well, it's for I'm so I was trying to like research the. I saw it, but I'm trying to research the details. It's for one night only, so I don't know if it is just like one night, like you have to just grab that night, like how do they pick who gets it? But it's one night only. It's their house in Santa Barbara, it's for up to four people and it's free. What? Yeah, it was free. I think so.
Speaker 1:It's a publicity stunt. I think they're trying to promote some type of because he's really big into like business and startups and shit, and I think he's probably trying to be like it's the purge.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's trying to hunt us all.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I don't like that.
Speaker 2:I like it. I don't agree with it.
Speaker 1:I don't like rich people doing nice things for people. I'll trust it. Yeah, you can't trust a rich actor.
Speaker 2:But they're nice people, so yeah. So they listed their house for one night only, for free, for up to four people, santa Barbara. It even says like they'll greet you upon arrival and make sure you have everything you need. They even said like oh, please, let us know if you have dietary restrictions, because you know they're going to have a private shift in that bitch? I don't know, I guess, what is it?
Speaker 1:Let's sign up for it.
Speaker 2:I think it already happened. But that's why I was like I'm not 100% sure, because I don't know if it's like a month or, like it said, one night only. So I don't know if it was like pick this one night, Everyone's fighting over it.
Speaker 1:I think that's it. I don't know, I think they're like let me see, they've been out of the spotlight so long. They're like that's who loves us.
Speaker 2:It comes there at our place. How fun though.
Speaker 1:That's interesting.
Speaker 2:Who would you rent an Airbnb from? Like who's the one person?
Speaker 1:John Fabru.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, we know, you don't Actually.
Speaker 1:Robert Downey Jr. He's so tight. I love that guy. I'd rent his spot. If he met me there too, I'd be like dude.
Speaker 2:I love you.
Speaker 1:There's just like a. There's a little story. So he went through like a lot of shit. Not only is he a good actor, he went through a lot of shit and he was addicted to drugs and my parents were like heroin addicts for like I don't know eleven, thirteen years or something. And when he was in prison, my mom wrote him a letter and she didn't actually send it, but she wrote a letter that he was a big reason for her to want to stop. They came to church and stuff and that was like the main reason. But he was like a big reason too, because she really loved him and I don't know why. Every time I like think of him, I think of that and I'm like I love that guy.
Speaker 2:It was like cathartic for her. Yeah, it's helped her.
Speaker 1:Yeah, he's the best, so I don't know it was weird, but I would love to meet him and stay at his place.
Speaker 2:No, yeah, I've heard. You know, you hear a lot of stories about him, like getting through his heart.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, who would you shia?
Speaker 2:and you take.
Speaker 1:can you stay in the room with me? I'm cold, warm me up. Oh no, you'd never come back. I'd be in the friend zone.
Speaker 2:You get a taxi. Hey brother, you're my bestie, oh no.
Speaker 1:Oh man, fuck those guys. Anyway, I have a funny one. Are you done? Yeah, okay, I want to play something. So like this last couple of years I've started to travel a little bit more and Brianna comes with me rarely one time. But it's funny because we used to both be afraid of planes and well, as of recent, we're not really yeah.
Speaker 2:And we were afraid of planes, because our flight to Boston was just supposed to be one flight, a little layover, one flight, but we were on our flight. We were on the tarmac for maybe about an hour and a half, two hours two hours and we missed that flight, so we missed our adjoining flight. We had to rebook, so we landed in what? Phoenix. Then we landed in Dallas. Dallas, and then we had to fly all the way to.
Speaker 1:Boston, so we took three flights.
Speaker 2:Yeah, we took three flights. We, what did you say? We spent eight hours flying. Yeah, instead of five or whatever it was.
Speaker 1:Yeah, what makes it worse is that my business partner was two planes down. He left 10 minutes after us and me and him were texting and then you see his plane reversing and I took a picture because I was going to send it to him and be like you, asshole. And then he took a video of us flying by and I wanted my blood was boiling because we didn't leave till two hours out and he was supposed to get there at like I don't know five and he was supposed to get there like 515, like 15 is behind us, and he got there at five and we got there at 1030. Oh my God, I was so pissed. But anyway, it was funny because we used to hate flying. Now we don't really care for it.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you're okay, because we've done four flights in one day, so and this story kind of went viral recently that a plane left from Atlantic City, I think, or Atlanta, and they had to turn back two hours into their flight because someone had diarrhea and they ran down the aisle and with their diarrhea and shit through the whole fucking plant.
Speaker 2:Oh no, that's like a hazmat situation.
Speaker 1:And this is what the pilots. This is what the pilots told the air control or the fucking tower? This is what they said Take it as it's just a biohazard.
Speaker 2:Excuse me, I think a movie's had a pastor had diarrhea all the way through the airplane so they wanted to come back to Atlanta.
Speaker 1:So this is a biohazard, oh my God. He had a passenger with diarrhea and a guy exiting the plane videotaped. He was walking, videotaped, the whole aisle Shit oh yeah, how do you?
Speaker 2:you can't walk past it. I think it was a bigger plane. It had two aisles, I think so yeah, so they were walking on the side of those planes.
Speaker 1:Yeah, they were flying to London or Australia or something, so it was a big plane from Atlanta yeah. And those have two aisles. So they were walking down the clean aisle and he was filming the shit aisle. It was fucking crazy.
Speaker 2:So someone had too much fun in Atlanta.
Speaker 1:I would prefer shit over turbulence Any day, I think.
Speaker 2:I wouldn't give a shit. I think you're going to sail for vomit. No, that person gave a shit. They gave a lot.
Speaker 1:Wait, let me see like a find out what's he. And he said real quick. They said, unfortunately for everyone involved, this poor bastard's runs. Beat him to the run way oh that's stupid. That right is a fucking idiot. The runs beat him to the runway.
Speaker 2:He was the runway, oh no.
Speaker 1:Anyway, I thought that was fucking hilarious. How do you think?
Speaker 2:Do you think the? The pilot said that was like Mayday, mayday, we've got diary on the tarmac and then like ended it and I was like I'm going like not embarrassing.
Speaker 1:People were like laughing because he said biohazard.
Speaker 2:It is a biohazard Like you don't know what's in that poop.
Speaker 1:You don't think of shit and think. You think of like I don't know, fucking biohazard. You think of chemicals or like yeah, like a hazmat suit so people were like, by the way, he called it a biohazard.
Speaker 2:Like it is, I guess, but it was fucking hilarious. That's fun. I guess that's all we had for hot gosh.
Speaker 1:It wasn't really gossipy but yeah, yeah, we thank everyone for tuning in.
Speaker 2:It's been a while.
