SPEAKER_01

Live from Gritty McDuffs in Portland, Maine. This is Buffalo Buffalo.

SPEAKER_00

It's Buffalo, Buffalo, Buffalo, Buffalo, yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Welcome to Buffalo Buffalo. I'm in charge this week, which is a wonderful thing. You would think it would make me in control of this podcast, but I'm never in control of this podcast. If you have ever listened, you know that my life is run by Peike, Jeff, and Jerry. They drive me up the wall, and they're here again. But this week I brought reinforcements. And you all have heard me talk about going to Pub Trivia. This is it's been an ongoing thing. Jeff, Jerry, and Peike like to talk about Rob and Joe as one word. Well, guess what?

SPEAKER_08

I mean, you talk about Rob and Joe.

SPEAKER_01

I I do, but it's Rob and Joe, and you Wait.

SPEAKER_10

It's Rob and Joe and Yeah, there's two people. I'm I'm Rob and Joe, and he's the other guy. Whoa! Who is that?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, so we have some extra special guests, people I have known for 10 years that I've been doing trivia at Gritty McDuff's in Portland. Um and I invited them to come on and do this week's game. So introduce yourselves.

SPEAKER_10

Uh I'm Rob. And I'm Joe. And we host trivia together uh at Gritty's uh in Portland, uh, which Daphne and her team, periodic table dancers, um very, very rarely miss a week. Um I think they've actually been to our trivia night more consecutively than we have.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, probably. Although we know we have been hosting for 37 years, so it's been about to keep track of everything.

SPEAKER_01

I know. Yeah. It's been so much fun. It's always like the thing I look forward to. One of my top things of the week to just get to do and hang out with my friends. And so I because it's become a thing here on our podcast for me to talk about trivia, and because Jeff goes to trivia in California and they use the same picture round that you guys do.

SPEAKER_08

No shit.

SPEAKER_01

We compare notes.

SPEAKER_08

Every once in a while we match up. It's not every week, but every once in a while we we match up.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

All right.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

It's kind of fun to kind of compare notes and be like, oh yeah, no, we got that one.

SPEAKER_10

Right, right.

SPEAKER_01

Or we didn't get that one. So it's super fun. Um, but yeah, I have been cooking this up for a couple of weeks. It started with I asked Rob to come on, and then Joe got involved, and it just made it even more fun for me to have both of you here to be with my wonderful Buffalo crew.

SPEAKER_02

Um, thanks for having us, Daphne. You know, I'm uh a huge star here in Portland, Maine, so I know. Yes, he's uh he's not at all actually huge.

SPEAKER_09

That is absolute bullshit.

SPEAKER_07

I mean, it feels like a big get to me. We've been talking about Rob and Joe forever. It seems like forever on here. I'm I'm still trying to grasp the idea that it's two separate people. I don't understand.

SPEAKER_08

You never explained that. You know, she just would always just say Rob and Joe and then get mad at us.

SPEAKER_07

I know, I'm just figure like a bank robber or like a guy that with like a bandana that rides by a train on a horse.

SPEAKER_02

I I was actually thinking like R-O-B-I-N-J-J-O. Like Rob and Joe. Yes. Yeah.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, no.

SPEAKER_02

That makes sense. This is YouTube.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, this is this is what it is.

SPEAKER_02

Um, what do you normally do on this podcast, Daphne?

SPEAKER_01

Okay, so we shoot the shit for about 10 minutes about the weather or something ridiculous, usually something that Jerry has sent us in a text message because he suffers from what I call green bubble disease, which means he has an Android phone. And oh and see you know what happens in a group chat if everyone has an iPhone and one person or two people they have an Android.

SPEAKER_08

Jerry liked this photo. Jerry liked somebody liked this photo. Yes.

SPEAKER_03

Over and over and over again.

SPEAKER_10

Jerry, I feel for you, man. I haven't had the green bubble in probably about eight or nine years, but I feel for you, you people take a lot of shit.

SPEAKER_06

See.

SPEAKER_05

But I still have the superior phone.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah. I will say droids take way better pictures than Apple phones.

SPEAKER_01

It depends. The new Apple phone has some great capabilities. Pake has sent some fun pictures with his.

SPEAKER_07

I take some great photos with this one.

SPEAKER_01

Uh yeah, so we have Green Bubble Disease, Jerry. And sometimes, because of the Green Bubble Disease, you can't edit your message once you send it. So Jerry has a tendency to misspell or it autocorrects at the last second. And so some of the stuff that comes through makes no sense, but to the three of us reading it, we're oh yeah, Jerry with his phone again. Uh, who knows what he really meant, but um okay. It just gets to be a pain sometimes.

SPEAKER_02

Who's uh who's based out of Texas again?

unknown

Me.

SPEAKER_01

That would be Pake.

SPEAKER_02

You know, I did take a little bit of uh issue with the fact that Daphne went to Texas and she refused to wear a cowboy hat while there.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, I tried. I tried. I tried and she she wouldn't she wouldn't do it. Although I have been to Maine once, I've been to Gritties once on a trivia night. I don't think you guys were running. Yeah, they were that I was there.

SPEAKER_01

Rob was there. Well, you guys were running.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, perfect. Okay, so it was you that was running. I don't I didn't remember. Uh so uh because I don't know if I ever talked to you when I was there. So I've I've been in the same room with you before, but just to meet you again, I guess. Uh but yeah, so that's still that's the only time they've got a perfect score. So I think I don't know. I should I take it 100%. Yes, I think so.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, I would would you like to take credit for all the times that you weren't there that we won? Because that, I mean burned!

SPEAKER_07

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_01

I mean if you want to give me that credit, I'll be we've ranked it up over the last, I'd say probably last well, excluding COVID, which was a time I don't remember.

SPEAKER_08

Uh we we so see what happened was in early 2020 the the world kind of shut down. I'm I just have to remind you of what happened since you don't remember.

SPEAKER_01

I don't want to remember. Well you say I don't want to remember. So I don't I am blocking it out. There are so many things I want to block out. I wish I could block out more.

SPEAKER_08

Yes, I agree.

SPEAKER_01

Um, brain bleach, I think, will be a thing maybe in ten years, and I'll just douse myself in it.

SPEAKER_02

Um it should.

SPEAKER_01

For some of us, I think we we need it anyway. So this week's game.

SPEAKER_08

Jerry, it's 7 15. You cannot be yawning.

SPEAKER_01

I am. I don't understand it.

SPEAKER_05

Because I've been up since he's not tired, like he's just bored. I've been up since five.

SPEAKER_01

Jerry, if you're bored already, that's Jerry.

SPEAKER_10

Jerry's not gonna be bored here pretty shortly. No, we're gonna make this fun. This is this is gonna be a fun night. So the the story is um Daphne's talked about her podcast for a while, and I listened to an episode, and it just happened to be uh an episode that you guys have already done that we're gonna do tonight. And I said, you know what? I want to be on that episode the next time you do it. And she said, Well, why don't you come on and you can ask the questions? And I said, All right, I'm down for that. So you're doing Flictionary? No, no, tonight we're gonna play an all new fresh round of would you rather? Ooh, nice. Okay. And and Joe has come up with his scenarios, which I don't know uh anything about, and I I've come up with mine. And um, I don't know, Joe. I think I think you and I should be required to uh answer each other's as well.

SPEAKER_01

Yes, I I'm in for that. I want to know what you guys will say.

SPEAKER_10

And you know why I'm saying that in particular? Because I I've said to Joe many times, I've done would you rather scenarios with him, and he refuses to answer. He'll be he'll always be like, neither rib. That's my nickname. Neither rib. So tonight we're gonna make an answer.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah, Daphne did that to me on the first question that I did, would you rather on? It was uh it was I can't remember what it was. It was two gross foods, and she just r absolutely hands down refused.

SPEAKER_01

I did. I mean, you have to understand that being with the three of them, sometimes I have to dig my heels in and just say no, just because it's it's just beyond my capability to be able to deal with it.

SPEAKER_10

I mean, and yes, that's understandable, but you but you can't do that with your special guests.

SPEAKER_01

I won't do that to you, Rob. I will not do that. I will not do that to you. I would absolutely do that to the three of them at any time. We deserve that. They won't they won't let me leave this podcast.

SPEAKER_07

It's true.

SPEAKER_01

They no I've I tried to quit. They won't let me leave.

SPEAKER_07

She walks in and we lock the door behind her.

SPEAKER_08

It's the last several episodes in us, you guys. I'm sorry. People can't see it, but Daphne is blinking help me in Morse code. Gotcha. Um, and it's just unfortunately it's not a video podcast and nobody can see it. And yeah.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

I don't know Morse code either, so she's shit out of luck.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, goodness.

SPEAKER_10

All right. I don't know you guys that well yet. So I figured, you know, we're gonna we're gonna amp it up as we go through here, but I I thought, you know, and get to know you guys a little bit before I, you know.

unknown

Right.

SPEAKER_08

Well, we're all extremely easily offended. Perfect. That's that's kind of the trademark of this show, is just us being offended. All right, then I should have no problem offending each and every one of you tonight.

SPEAKER_10

Perfect.

SPEAKER_01

We have no, yeah. Language is we have no boundaries. Like there's no perfect.

SPEAKER_05

Okay. Um what I like to say is like um I told my friends this too. It's like, you know, I go so far the over the line sometimes the line's a dot in the distance behind me.

SPEAKER_06

Okay.

SPEAKER_10

All right. All right. Maybe I should skip the first two then.

SPEAKER_03

No, I have a warm.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, hot takes. Joe, you want to go first or you want me to go? No, I just want to see what you got, Rib. All right. I didn't prepare at all, so. Oh, you're you're going on the fly. Oh, absolutely. Oh, wonderful. You gotta feel the audience out. Oh we are we're not without buying.

SPEAKER_07

We're already locking doors behind people. We're not doing that.

SPEAKER_01

We're not yeah, Rob, we are ready to go.

SPEAKER_05

All right. We'll we'll we'll fire it up. And okay, and Joe, if you do want to feel us out, you have to buy us dinner first.

SPEAKER_10

Joe, Joe's familiar, Joe's familiar with that scenario.

SPEAKER_05

He doesn't always go by it, but as long as we can make Daphne like ease palm and shake her head, perfect. Yeah, our night's work is done.

SPEAKER_10

Yes. All right, first uh, first, would you rather scenario? Curious to hear Daphne's response for this one. Would you rather relive one year of your childhood exactly the way it was? Or redo one year of adulthood with knowledge that you have now?

SPEAKER_06

An interesting idea.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, it's hard because I'd like to do both. I'd want to go back to the 80s for the music just to rediscover some songs again. Because you know when you hear it for the first time, it you remember where you were, and it's just such cool.

SPEAKER_10

Oh, 100%.

SPEAKER_01

But I feel like I would no, I would go back to my childhood, and it's kind of a sappy reason. Part of it is cause my dad is not with us anymore, and to have that chance to be back with him, and I mean he was the original person that would wind me up, like tease me and be like the three of them. Like, he just would but I would love to go back and do that. It would be cool. Plus, the music, like being able, like I'd have to pick a really good year and just rediscover all of that. That would be the best. 87. See, I think 86 was also really good, but 87, oh yeah, 87 was good. So good.

SPEAKER_10

The whole decade, but 87 would be my choice.

SPEAKER_07

Um, all right, who's next? I mean, my answer is pretty much the same as Daphne's way, because I was like, welcome to the comedy podcast where we're gonna talk about dead parents and be sappy. Um, but because that's the because I lost my mom when I was 12, and so then I was thinking it's just like you know, to experience it, would still be like a first time if like you go back and relive that year the same, but I'd like pick an earlier age when I was like a toddler, just like to have that like family kind of thing again with like my mom and stuff, because I know like there's trips that we went on when I was such a little kid that I don't have any memory of now. So it's like it'd be reliving that, but also kind of like experiencing it for the first time because I don't have those memories anymore. So that would be my answer. It's all again like sappy. It's like haha, not funny, but uh no, that's but honest, yeah, that totally makes sense.

SPEAKER_08

Absolutely. I think this is this is a difficult one for me because I was originally when you first started, it was like 100% I'm going back to childhood and reliving a year. Um but I think actually I would uh do over a year from adulthood. It would be from young adulthood, you know, like 1920, 21 years old, something something around there. Yeah, the year 1920. The year 1920. I I look very good for my age. I'm actually 116.

SPEAKER_07

Wow. Amazing. Sweet 116. Yes. Oh man.

SPEAKER_05

Approaching the big 200.

SPEAKER_07

Oh man.

SPEAKER_02

Willard Scott's wishing you a happy birthday from Smuckers right now.

SPEAKER_01

Yep.

SPEAKER_08

Oh God. Willard Scott. That's a the original Ronald McDonald's.

SPEAKER_01

And that was horrifying.

SPEAKER_08

Oh my god.

SPEAKER_01

That was in a picture round once at Gritties. Never forget it. Burn into my head. Oh, it was horrible. What about you, Jerry?

SPEAKER_05

I would want to relive 2007 because that was a fucking awesome year for me.

SPEAKER_01

That would be, yeah.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_10

Tell us about 2007.

SPEAKER_01

What was great about it?

SPEAKER_07

Oh, it was four years old.

SPEAKER_05

No, my uh, I was I was doing really good at work. I had bought myself a brand new freaking car, you know, brand new Lexus that year, and I had uh um a lot of good stuff happening in my life personally. So I will leave it at that. Just don't want to elaborate. Had some great times.

SPEAKER_07

Some illicit stuff going on.

SPEAKER_05

No, no, no illicit stuff going on. I I like how you invent all these scenarios for me, Peg. It's like one of these scenarios that was like a Jerry is not allowed to say what happened that year. Um give it another couple years, I think they're up.

SPEAKER_03

What about you, Joe?

SPEAKER_02

So it was uh to redo an adult year? Is that what it was?

SPEAKER_10

Or go back to a certain year of your childhood and live it out exactly how it was.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, I think I would redo age 21 for me. So right before I met you, I think. It was a few years before, and I uh I made the mistake of moving out of wonderful and cozy campus housing and getting an apartment with three of my closest friends there. I know what apartment you're talking about because I lived right down the street from you. I don't, you don't, it's a different one. Oh, it's a different one, okay. Yeah, it was a third floor dump um and and right across from a Dunkin' Donuts. And uh actually, when there was a strong wind, it would sway, the entire apartment building would sway. And uh at one point in time we had a uh pretty much a drug dead on the first floor. Eventually it erupted into a huge fight of like 40 people. Um and then the landlord came and evicted everybody. I had no money at that point, so I had to live in the side of the garage at my dad's house for uh the entire summer.

SPEAKER_10

How have I never heard this story?

SPEAKER_02

Until I went back to cozy campus housing uh at the beginning of the fall semester. So that was not a great age 21, you would think. Awesome year, not so much. Well, you made up for it. I know you did. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But that was uh if I could go back, yeah, I would.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, he wouldn't have moved out of campus housing. He would have stayed. Sometimes moving in with your friends is not a good idea. Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

No.

SPEAKER_01

And you don't know that until you're actually out there and you have to be in a in the same house with them day after day.

SPEAKER_10

I think we've all had roommates when you when you move in and or when you move out, you're like, you know what, we're much better off as friends.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah.

SPEAKER_07

Or or after being roommates with him for a while, we're much better off not knowing. Absolutely.

SPEAKER_02

For sure.

SPEAKER_01

Okay. Next one.

SPEAKER_02

Joe, you got one? No, not really. Keep going, Rob. You're doing great.

SPEAKER_10

Joe's just a long for the ride.

SPEAKER_01

This is how it is. Like it, yeah. This is great.

SPEAKER_10

I um this is this is one of the um, so some some of these I actually kind of you know cheated and researched or whatever, but this is this is uh one that I did come up with by myself because I've I've thought about this for myself on numerous occasions, and I'm I'm curious to hear what you guys think, uh, what you guys' answers are. Uh, would you rather live your entire life as a dog, but with the same lifespan you have as a human or stay human?

SPEAKER_02

Oh, I've always kind of wanted to just lick my ass for no reason and just make it like that. That's what it does. Totally get that, Joe.

SPEAKER_01

Totally get that. I'd rather stay human.

SPEAKER_10

Stay human?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. I think dogs go through a lot of shit. Some dogs go through a lot of shit in their life.

SPEAKER_10

Happily, they roll around. They roll right around behind the yard. Yes, their life involves it revolves around shit.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, I don't want I don't know. That's not for me.

SPEAKER_10

Okay.

SPEAKER_07

Well, I wasn't sure. Dogs can't buy concert tickets, so I feel like you could if you're a service animal. Yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. I don't see Peig surviving if he can't go see 21 Pilots.

SPEAKER_10

Oh, Peig, big 21 Pilots guy, huh?

SPEAKER_07

Absolutely.

SPEAKER_10

Oh, yeah, you are.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, I'm I'm holding up my my logo tattoo for the video pod non-visual, um, you know, just audio only listeners at home.

SPEAKER_10

They were one of my final interviews at WCYY in the uh in the summer of 2016. Josh and Tyler, super, super nice guys.

SPEAKER_07

I could imagine. I've yeah, uh yeah. We tangent, yeah, I haven't had a chance to meet them. I I would love to, but I did take uh for my job, I'm a respite caretaker for a young man with cerebral palsy who's like in a wheelchair fully uh dependent and stuff, and I took him to see them back in uh October. Nice. And I give like to give him shit a little bit because I'm like, I've seen them seven times. This is your first time seeing them, and which one of us did Tyler walk up to and give a high five? You, not me. You know, like of course.

SPEAKER_09

That's awesome.

SPEAKER_07

That's awesome. All right, who hasn't answered?

SPEAKER_01

Peg, uh, do you want uh no? You don't want to live as a dog, I take it. No, I'm good. What about you, Jeff and Jerry?

SPEAKER_08

100% dog. Absolutely. Absolutely dog. Yeah, I've not no, I I honestly it's like to me that's that's the life right there. Sleeping, eating, shitting. That that's about the entirety of my life. I also have worries and anxieties and all these kinds of things. It's a real toughest anxiety is that damn squirrel is back again.

SPEAKER_10

It's a tough scenario. It kind of depends on like what's going on in your life as well. Like are you uh are you in a shitty relationship? Do you have are you struggling with finances or whatever? Because if that's a situation, you're like, oh, I want to be a dog, you know, you have no you have no responsibility ever, but you can't travel and you can't go on vacations and go to concerts and do all that other stuff.

SPEAKER_07

So then you become Ted Cruz's dog and then you're left in a kennel at the house while they run to Cancun. Right.

SPEAKER_10

Exactly. Exactly. And no one wants to be that dog for many reasons.

SPEAKER_01

I knew you were gonna go there. I knew it. Not a surprise.

SPEAKER_10

Am I not allowed to no?

SPEAKER_01

You absolutely can.

SPEAKER_10

Okay.

SPEAKER_01

We are all we are all patrons of the same church here when it comes to that political alliances.

SPEAKER_02

All right, Joe, you got you got one, or you am I am I gonna keep going? Wow, you're asking very philosophical questions. I like it so far.

SPEAKER_07

Makes you think, doesn't it? He's just here to critique your price. I have a philosophical and morbid question.

SPEAKER_01

Oh god. Okay.

SPEAKER_10

Would you rather know the exact date of your death or the exact way that you'll die? That's pretty dark, Rob. We'll get into the fun ones after, I promise. Okay.

SPEAKER_01

I would rather know how I'm going to die because then I would try to prevent it, maybe, I guess.

SPEAKER_05

Well no, this is Final Destination, Daphne.

SPEAKER_01

Oh preventing.

SPEAKER_05

There's no preventing. Um, I was gonna say, in trying to prevent it, you cause it to happen. Exactly. Oh god.

SPEAKER_01

Final destination.

SPEAKER_08

Final destination fucked me up. I still cannot drive behind a truck carrying logs.

SPEAKER_01

No. Yeah, neither can I and in Maine, there's log trucks.

SPEAKER_08

No, like it is on like windy mountain roads behind a logging truck, and I'm just like, no, I'm just gonna pull over. I saw this.

SPEAKER_07

Just give them an hour to move on.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Um, okay, so I would rather know when. Because I feel like if I know when, I will live it the fuck up before all the things I've said twelve. Um then I'll have a nice long time to live it up. And I'll have to plan for being 112. Does that mean I have to work until I'm 90? I hope not. Although I feel like I'm gonna be anyway.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

What about you guys?

SPEAKER_05

Well, I would rather know when, because you know, if I find out I mean it's like immolation, I was like, oh heck no. But um, but I I just want to know when because but the downside to that is it's tomorrow. Right. That's the downside, exactly. Uh-oh.

SPEAKER_01

There's not enough time to do all I'd want to do.

SPEAKER_07

Like how much longer do I have? Ten. Ten what? Years, months, nine.

SPEAKER_01

Not like that. But I yeah, I feel for me it has to be when. Because I would plan trips.

SPEAKER_08

And probably spend money I don't have. Yeah. I would want to know when. And if it is tomorrow, then I mean I'm not going to be a really good night. Yeah, exactly.

SPEAKER_07

Then everybody better answer their like text, like, hey, we're good, we're gonna do some stuff. And if it is, it's time to party.

SPEAKER_08

If it is 50, 60 years from now or something, then well, then I'm not worried that I'm going to like I'm I'm not there's still plenty of worries because I'm not a dog, but you know, um, you know, I'm not worried about like, oh, I'm going to end up, you know, running out of money and dying or something like that. I'll just somehow live despite being penniless and destitute.

SPEAKER_01

I think we're all headed in that direction, Jeff. So Oh, yeah.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_07

No, I think it's the same. It's like when is better than how, because how you don't know when, and so just you're terrified every time anything remotely close. Ha! It's now. Oh god. So like with when, yeah, it's like if it's whether it's soon or a long way off, it's like, okay, well, I have time to like plan. But I think it also makes you more like comfortable and like willing to like take risks or do stuff that because you're just like, well, this isn't it, so it's not time yet. So let's let's do what I want to do.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, that makes sense.

SPEAKER_02

Joe. Uh definitely um when, so that you can, you know, just rage if you want to at the end of your life, or you know, just you know, say goodbye to everyone, or um, you know, crack a bunch of bunch of jokes on a podcast right before you know you're gonna go. So everybody wants to know the exact date. Yeah, why you got it, Rob? Right in front of you? What's that? You got the you got the date right in front of you?

SPEAKER_10

No, I said everybody wants to know the date. That's I was kidding, Rob. Oh, I don't have the date. I wish I had the date. Actually, I don't again, I don't know if I'd want to know the date. Because, you know, what if what if it's like you know 58 or something like that or whatever? Would you want to know that? I don't know. Maybe, maybe not, I don't know. Because say, all right, so say you you find out you're you're you're you've got 10 years to live. Is that a good thing or a bad thing that you know that?

SPEAKER_01

I would live it up in the 10 years. I would not say no to myself. I would do I would and I would make it.

SPEAKER_10

You wouldn't be able to enjoy yourself as much though, because you're like, I got this much time left. But I do I do see both sides.

SPEAKER_08

You would enjoy yourself with short-term things, but it would put a damper on certain things where you're like, without I don't want to get too morbid about it and dwell on it, but you know, I mean, let's just say that you are young and you were planning to start a family and you find out that it's gonna be five years. Well, do you you know change your plans? Or you know, that kind of thing. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Yep. All right, Joe, why why don't you give us one? Alright, uh hope every uh hope everybody has Google in front of them so that they can look this up. Um would you rather spend a night with Ellen Barkin from Sea of Love, or would you rather spend a night with Glenn Close from Fatal Attraction?

SPEAKER_01

Okay.

SPEAKER_05

I would say I would say Ellen Barkin's less leathery.

SPEAKER_01

I don't know that it's what they look like, Jerry. I think it might be what they the content of their character, Jack? Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Yes. Ellen Barkin didn't seem like she was much better until I don't want to give away the end, but is it just the the actress from that time or the character?

SPEAKER_10

They both play in uh the main character in Fatal Attraction.

SPEAKER_02

No, no, no. So Ellen Barkin was in a different movie with Al Pacino called Sea of Love, which was about a serial killer. Okay, was she the serial killer? Rob, I don't want to give it a spoiler alert, dude.

SPEAKER_03

It only came up what 40 years ago, while you're linking these two together, I guess.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah. They're just both very attractive blondes from the 80s, Rob. And they both look similar, too. Yes, with very flawed characters.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Well, I have a sword in the other room. And a prop machete from The Walking Dead. So if I needed to, you know what? At least Glenn Close, you know, is a psychopath. Like I I'll deal with her. I've got a sword, I got a machete. I I'll I'll take my chances.

SPEAKER_02

Going Ellen Barkin all the way.

SPEAKER_01

I'm going Glen Close.

SPEAKER_08

I've always loved Glenn Close. I've always thought she was amazing.

SPEAKER_01

So what about you, Jake?

SPEAKER_08

Glenn Close.

SPEAKER_05

Ellen Barkin, of course. She's the right kind of person. But sometimes you know, it depends on how you treat her. It's like you might be barking up the wrong tree.

SPEAKER_10

Hilarious. But uh, where's that? Where's the uh we have the drum roll? Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Jerry. No.

SPEAKER_07

No.

SPEAKER_01

What? What do you mean no? No.

SPEAKER_07

I think it's a yes. That's a I think that's a yes.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, but who's really the judge here? Whose attention are you trying to get? And who are you trying to impress?

SPEAKER_05

When have I not told a joke when when it's right there dangling in front of me?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, sometimes you shouldn't have.

SPEAKER_05

I don't know.

SPEAKER_10

I Joe and I, uh, as your guests, we are horrible dad joke people.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_10

Excellent. Like we when when when we have the opportunity as well, we will do it.

SPEAKER_08

Are these dad jokes that are horrible or jokes told by horrible dads?

SPEAKER_10

Uh the first one.

SPEAKER_08

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_10

All right. Definitely the first one. Joe and I are not equipped to be dads.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_10

Um, yeah, no.

SPEAKER_07

Definitely the first one. Uh vasectomies, kind of. Oh, you're not like that. Not like that. Oh.

SPEAKER_01

You're kind of in a room with people who are the same. Like we're all figuring that out. Yeah. They're very yeah, they're all 12. Yeah.

SPEAKER_05

Yes. So if you if you walk, if you uh drive by a a building with uh the address number 8008 written on the building, do you laugh? Oh, absolutely.

SPEAKER_08

Absolutely. Oh gosh, you gotta come visit Jack in the Box.

SPEAKER_10

And I think at like age like 30 or whatever, I'm like, it's it's not going away. This is just it's getting stronger as you age.

SPEAKER_07

Especially if that building with that address, 8008, is a Jack in the Box. And that's just true.

SPEAKER_05

What it is. And I could show you the building. I drive by it every single morning.

SPEAKER_01

And you laugh about it. And someday. Someday the three of you will no longer be 12 and you'll be 13, but that time has not come yet.

SPEAKER_07

I thought we had I had we had that.

SPEAKER_01

I don't think so.

SPEAKER_07

Did we get demoted back to 12? That probably had to happen. Dang.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah. We regressed. Rob, do you have any more deep meaningful ones, or do you want to do like a gross one?

SPEAKER_10

Oh, I do have I have um no no more deep, meaningful ones. These are more like uh awkward scenarios, kind of gross.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Alright.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah. Hit us with an awkward scenario.

SPEAKER_01

I think we're ready.

SPEAKER_02

Awkward scenario? Yeah, let's do that.

SPEAKER_10

All right. I like this one. Would uh would you rather trip in public? Uh not a LSD, actual trip. Uh would you rather trip in public once a week forever, or accidentally call someone by the wrong name every day?

SPEAKER_01

You know what?

SPEAKER_05

I kind of do the second one.

SPEAKER_01

I'm gonna do the second one. I'll call them by the wrong name. It'll just become their name after a while. I mean, really.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah. Because uh my boss's name's Samantha, and I have a coworker that works in uh Sacramento, her name's Amanda, and for the longest time I was calling Samantha Amanda.

SPEAKER_10

And she never corrected you.

SPEAKER_05

No, she does.

SPEAKER_01

She just laughs into the Jerry has a tendency to mishear things. Or he hears part of it and then twists it into his own story.

SPEAKER_05

And misspeak very handily, like um, like like like for example, when I told people to not listen.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Yes, we're on a podcast, and Jerry tells them not to listen.

SPEAKER_08

Jerry goes. Jerry says, you know, so everybody out there, you might want to not listen.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah. You might want to switch to a different podcast.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, you might. Yeah. Oh, what about you, Peg?

SPEAKER_07

I'm glad you I'm glad you cleared up that the the trip in public wasn't like on drugs, because I can tell you by ex from experience it's not fun to do it in public. Uh I wouldn't want to do it regularly.

SPEAKER_01

Are you are you referring to when you went to Santa Fe?

SPEAKER_07

To Santa Fe? Yeah, it might be. Uh yeah. Um man, that was something. Um, people the next day being like, where'd you go? And I'm like, I don't know. I made it back to my hotel somehow.

SPEAKER_06

Uh I went on an adventure.

SPEAKER_07

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, that's what happens when you take you drink some and you think it's not working, so you drink some more.

SPEAKER_10

Okay. Is that why you don't drink, Daphne?

SPEAKER_01

No. No. I I can't. I can't drink, actually. I do have one margarita a year.

SPEAKER_10

Peg has seen me drink last year. So you should be having one tonight.

SPEAKER_01

I should have two. So, Peike, when I come to Texas, I can have two. But I had one.

SPEAKER_07

Oh, they roll up, there's they're rollover drinks.

SPEAKER_01

Rollover drinks, yeah. I had a margarita uh two years ago in Texas.

SPEAKER_08

Oh. Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. At the plaid rabbit with Peike, and I was feeling really good after only drinking like this much of it. Because they don't drink. No. There were no bulls and velvets.

SPEAKER_07

Uh yeah, I think official answer on that. So the the name thing, because I think I can play that off. If it becomes every day I say somebody's name wrong, eventually I can play that off as it's a bit that I'm doing, and maybe it'll catch on. Hopefully it will catch on. Hopefully. People are like, oh, there he goes again with that bit calling somebody the wrong name.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah. Honestly, I'm gonna have to call it with name as well, simply because if I trip, I'm going to hurt myself. I'm going to pull something. You know, I'm gonna end up like flat on my back, unable to move. Jeff, are you accident prone? No, not particularly. I just have a bad back. Oh, say I can I can vouch for that. I know exactly what that's like. So it's I know if I trip, I'm gonna pull something.

SPEAKER_01

Didn't you sneeze, Jeff, once? You sneezed or coughed and you hurt your back. I feel like that's happening.

SPEAKER_08

I feel like I might have, but I can't remember. That's actually.

SPEAKER_01

Or it might have been Pike.

SPEAKER_08

It's not as unprofessional.

SPEAKER_07

I've thrown my back out uh sneezing before.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah. I haven't thrown it out. I've definitely hurt myself, like especially like lying down and twisting or something, and then I sneeze or cough, and it's like just muscles get pulled in weird directions.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Um shit happens.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, it does. And as you get older, also sometimes if you sneeze or cough wrong.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

It's a good joke. Joe, what do you think?

SPEAKER_07

Thank you. Thanks.

SPEAKER_10

Joe has no problem calling people the wrong name.

SPEAKER_02

I I'm I'm already calling his answer for him. Well, I actually work with a guy that has been doing it for 20 years, and like he just gets away with it.

SPEAKER_10

And nobody nobody I know exactly who you're talking about, and we had somebody when I was there that also did it, um, our production director.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah. Yeah. I mean, yeah, our our engineer at the radio station has called people by the wrong name literally every day for 20 years, and nobody corrects him because he just does so much that everybody's like, ah, don't bug him. If he's calling you the wrong name, oh well. That's who you are now.

SPEAKER_01

Your name has been changed for. I don't like your name anymore. You're going to go buy this, and that's just how it is.

SPEAKER_06

Yep.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. As you get older, tripping becomes an even bigger issue because you just get hurt so much easier than when you're in your twenties.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, or when you're walking back from uh the diner at your office in the office complex and and you're like you're you get your mind preoccupied with a meeting and you you know like put your foot into like half of your foot into a planner and then just tumble right on down and land on your elbow. Yeah. Perfect.

SPEAKER_08

This is a hypothetical scenario that definitely never happened to Jerry.

SPEAKER_05

About a month ago. Yeah, it never happened like a month to six weeks ago. Never happened. Yeah.

SPEAKER_10

Alright, up next. Would you rather give up music forever or sex forever?

SPEAKER_01

Oh fuck. That isn't even fair.

SPEAKER_10

This is the one down. That was your answer.

SPEAKER_01

I don't know if I can.

SPEAKER_05

Um, I'll I'll go first. I will give up the snacks because I am not giving up the snacks.

SPEAKER_07

Snacks. Oh, I didn't snap. He did not say snacks. Snacks. Jerry. I was like, did you say snacks or snacks?

SPEAKER_05

Oh, no, I thought you said snacks. Now you make it a man, now you make it a difficult question. For Jerry snacks that could go along.

SPEAKER_01

I don't know if I can answer this.

SPEAKER_07

I don't his favorite snack is candy underwear.

SPEAKER_01

Oh God.

SPEAKER_10

Daffy, we'll come back to you at the end.

SPEAKER_01

You have to because I don't know if I can answer that.

SPEAKER_08

He's gone.

SPEAKER_03

Jeff, what about you? Oh my god.

SPEAKER_08

I would like some clarification.

SPEAKER_10

Uh you can never listen to music ever again, or you can listen to it. Not about the music. Not about the music. Oh.

SPEAKER_02

Does it have to be with someone else, or can you just take care of it yourself?

SPEAKER_10

I didn't prepare for this.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah. Can I just take the problem in hand?

SPEAKER_10

That's a great question.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

I should say no to make it more difficult. No, I don't think I don't think that qualifies. That's why I was ready to go, okay. I'm not giving up music.

SPEAKER_08

I don't think I could possibly give up music. Like no matter what else. I I don't think I could ever give up music.

SPEAKER_06

Mm-mm.

SPEAKER_08

So come back to Jerry in five minutes or so. He's rebooting. Uh yeah.

SPEAKER_01

He's he's created a third option of snacks. I'll give up snacks. I'm going with snacks. That'd be the easiest thing.

SPEAKER_10

Alright, who hasn't answered yet?

SPEAKER_01

Okay.

SPEAKER_05

But I will I will give up the sex.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, I need music.

SPEAKER_01

And he's very important to me.

SPEAKER_08

Daphne's still thinking.

SPEAKER_01

This is so hard.

SPEAKER_08

But he said that's the problem.

SPEAKER_07

That's uh because I I mean I I like both of them either that way.

SPEAKER_01

Uh but no uh I don't think I can give up music.

SPEAKER_07

Both of them are both of them can be better in hard.

SPEAKER_01

Uh I don't think I can give up music. Like I I music is like everything. It's emotion, it's storytelling, it's every I just so is sex. Yeah, I'm not sure.

SPEAKER_07

So give me sex if you're doing it, if you're doing it really well and special, it's storytelling, and so it's a ballet.

SPEAKER_01

Okay, I have to give up sex because I can't give up music. I just can't. I can't give up.

SPEAKER_10

I'm I'm with you. I think I would have to train my brain that like this is it, dude. It's not happening anymore. Like never again. But you can listen to you know, your uh whatever the hell you want, whatever you want for the rest of your life, and just do it.

SPEAKER_07

Think of all the extra time you're gonna have for Steely Dan. Right, exactly.

SPEAKER_01

Um Steely Dan would not be on any list of any priority for me.

SPEAKER_10

Except for it would be on mine.

SPEAKER_01

It would. Rob and I Rob did this playlist, he's done many playlists, but of the top like 80s songs, and you two, Pake or Jeff. No, Jeff did it. I did. Um I did.

SPEAKER_08

I'm actually I've been listening to it. Uh Jeff, I need to see your 80s playlist.

SPEAKER_10

You need to set up.

SPEAKER_08

I will share that with you. Yeah, I did the way I did it was I did um top I because Daphne did 300, I also did. Did 300. I had to. Um, and they were I limited it to songs that were actually that charted.

SPEAKER_10

That's that that's exactly what my rule was with my list. But I didn't have that rule.

SPEAKER_01

I didn't have that rule because there are a lot of top 40.

SPEAKER_08

There are a lot of non-charting songs of 80's greatest misses, which is just my hundred top songs that were singles but never charted. I want to see that list too.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Rob wants to use it on the because last week for the audio round, he did uh was it last week?

SPEAKER_10

Yep, it was songs without a number. It was like very popular songs that actually never cracked the top 40.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, it was great. It was a fun one. Um yeah. So yeah, I I can't give up music. I it's too important.

SPEAKER_10

What do you got?

SPEAKER_02

I already said what I had. No, for do you for your scenario? Oh, oh, let's get real gross then. Perfect. Yeah, this is the same thing. Yeah, this is this is uh one that Daphne is just not gonna be able to handle, really, I don't think. I love it. Love it. Perfect. Something to do with frogs. It's gotta be something to do with frogs. Would you rather lick a used band-aid or bite down on a scab? Who?

SPEAKER_08

Scab. My scab.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, it's like if it's my band-aid or my scab, then I probably have done both of those in some instance in my life. For one reason or another, I don't think a band aid right now.

SPEAKER_08

Oh god.

SPEAKER_02

I want Daphne to answer first. Yeah. I feel like you're not moving on until she answers.

SPEAKER_01

You were not supposed to come on here and terrorize me. Oh, I'm sorry. You're supposed to terrorize them because they terrorize me. God, Joe, that's harmless fellows to me. Okay, bite down because if I bite down on a scout it's my teeth, it's not my tongue, I won't have to taste it, and then I can bleach my mouth after with glycerine and chlorox. I don't know. Clorox.

SPEAKER_02

Well, Daphne, I hope when you bite down that just like a little shard doesn't come off and get into the back of your throat, though.

SPEAKER_01

Because that would be disgusting.

SPEAKER_02

A scab shard. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Oh god. New band name. A scab shard. Yeah, Peg, add that to your band name list.

SPEAKER_07

I was gonna say that's it. Sounds like a great like crust punk band. Crust punk?

SPEAKER_01

Is that a genre? Yep.

SPEAKER_10

Side stage at Lollapalooza next year.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Oh god. By the way, Rob, Peg was the one who got 19 out of 20 on your audio round.

SPEAKER_10

Oh, it was it was the the new metal round, right?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. The new metal and yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_10

Yep. Nice.

SPEAKER_01

I don't think I ever tested Jeff. I'll have to do that.

SPEAKER_08

No, but you need to because I love new metal.

SPEAKER_01

And you've been left, you feel left out now.

SPEAKER_08

I do.

SPEAKER_01

Yep, okay. Then I'll test it. Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_10

Well, I'm happy to share my audio rounds with you guys. So we have so many. I would have to agree with Daphne. I would have to do the bite-down thing for the same reason. In hopes that I don't get a scab shard on my.

SPEAKER_07

It's just flavorless jerky.

SPEAKER_08

If you just have to bite down, you don't have to eat it. That made it worse, dude.

SPEAKER_04

That absolutely made it worse. So bad. Oh. Okay, I don't know. I have to ask, is there is there any like scab cheese on the inside of it?

SPEAKER_08

That's my that was my thing too. Is I'm I'm worried about it like bursting or something. Right.

SPEAKER_01

You're making it more difficult, okay? Just don't. Don't do it.

SPEAKER_08

I think I would lick a band-aid. Yeah.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_10

Real quick, scab cheese, another great band name.

SPEAKER_01

Oh yeah. Peg, write that down. Peg has an ongoing list of potential band names.

SPEAKER_05

Love it. Yeah, I would have to do the bike down because again, it's like it just you know, you have to just wash my mouth out.

SPEAKER_07

Again, it is is it my band-aid or scab or it has to be somebody else's? Because that does make a lot of difference, I feel like.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. If it's someone else's, it's grossy, like, oh god.

SPEAKER_02

Like, here, take a bite of my scab.

SPEAKER_01

I brought snacks.

SPEAKER_08

Well, Jerry's given up snacks, so.

SPEAKER_01

Is that permanent, Jerry, or just for Lent?

SPEAKER_05

Probably just for Lent.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, God.

SPEAKER_02

Well, everybody answered. You guys are underplaying the band-aid flavor personally, which is one of my you know all-time favorites. When you go to the dentist and they ask you want bubblegum, you know, chocolate, I go with band-aid flavor. Uh I've never thought about that.

SPEAKER_08

That that is an excellent point. Yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_07

It's my favorite Baskin Robbins ice cream flavor. It was the it was it's it's the secret 30-second flavor.

SPEAKER_10

I don't think this one is as gross as Joe's. Oh, good.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, good.

SPEAKER_10

But it's it's uh it's not even really like gross, it's just it's just uh it involves two scenarios that we have all experienced before, both unpleasant.

SPEAKER_01

Oh good. Great.

SPEAKER_10

Would you rather walk in wet socks every day or feel like there's a hair in your mouth at all times? Oh god. How long? Socks that hair in my mouth. Yeah. I cannot it's always there. It's always there. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Socks. I don't even wear socks.

SPEAKER_08

Honestly, I spend so much, like almost every day, I get phantom hairs in my mouth where I'm I go, there's something there, and there's nothing there. So I'm already dealing with that.

SPEAKER_10

Uh can you write down phantom hair, please?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, right. Add that to the list as well. Maybe we can get that first sick new world in October.

SPEAKER_07

Do do bald people ever get like phantom hair? Like the way that like an amputee has like a phantom limb syndrome?

SPEAKER_08

They start combing. I swear I could feel it. Oh my god.

SPEAKER_07

Oh man. What's everybody dancing? I think it's yeah. I think the socks just out of kindness, because the the hair thing isn't just my problem. It becomes everybody around me problem because then I'm going just all the time. He would. Oh my god. Yeah. Become very unpleasant to be around.

SPEAKER_01

Oh my god. Jerry, you said what? Socks. Yeah, it has to be socks. I don't even wear socks most of the time. Even in the winter.

SPEAKER_02

It's gotta be the socks because I mean the hair of the valve literally makes me gag. Yeah. How are you supposed to eat and drink after that?

SPEAKER_01

You don't. It's horrible.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, this is why I stay clean shaven. It's like I can't even like I don't even like hair on my face. I mean, every day, whether I'm gonna see somebody or not.

SPEAKER_01

Is that like frogs, Jerry? I won't eat them because I don't want them in me.

SPEAKER_05

Correct. Yes.

SPEAKER_01

That's that's dead. Harkens back to a very early.

SPEAKER_07

He doesn't want hair on him even if it's dead. Yes.

SPEAKER_01

Even if it's dead. I don't want that.

SPEAKER_07

Which most of the time it is by the point it's well, most of the hair is dead. Yeah. Not all.

SPEAKER_02

Joe, you got one or you want me to do another one? No, just keep going, Rub. I'm feeling you. This is a fun one.

SPEAKER_06

Would you rather say that?

SPEAKER_10

New promise. No, it's fun for me. I don't know how this is gonna be. Actually, it's gonna be fun for everybody here except for Daphne.

SPEAKER_06

Why is this becoming a theme?

SPEAKER_10

Would you rather walk in on your parents or have them walk in on you? Oh, the classic. And you know what I'm talking about? It's not snacks.

SPEAKER_01

Um god, there's not enough brain bleach.

SPEAKER_02

Rob, how did you feel when you walked in on me and your mother?

SPEAKER_01

Oh Jesus, I knew that was gonna come up.

SPEAKER_10

I didn't even think that's my bad for not even thinking about this, writing this question ahead of time, because every opportunity this motherfucker gets to drop a mom joke, he does it, and I should have known better.

SPEAKER_01

Yes, you should have. I knew this would happen, I was expecting it.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah. If I pick one of these that hasn't happened, does it undo the one in my life that actually has happened? Yeah. Hey, tell us more. Oh god. No. I've been the walk-in error. Walk in her gotcha. Yeah, that was that was an awkward conversation later.

SPEAKER_10

Forever. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_01

Um, one of them happened to me already. It wasn't my mother, but it was his father.

SPEAKER_07

It was my neighbors. I shouldn't have been there, I know.

SPEAKER_01

Um so yeah, I'd rather be I don't want the I don't want brain bleach for seeing something like that. So I'd rather some they walk in and it happened, so it's yeah, it's okay. I can deal with that. I don't know if he could deal with it. Like I don't know if he if it, you know, he needed brain bleach, but um, yeah. My parents never did, but one of my boyfriends' dads did catch us. It was it was something. Sure it was.

SPEAKER_10

What about you, Joe?

SPEAKER_02

Minus the uh Rob's mom joke. Oh, yeah. Well, no, I mean nobody wants to walk in on their parents. That's awful. But I mean, if your parents walked in on you, you'd be like, I'm all grown up, look at me now. You know, like look at me now. Yeah. You know, this this is nature, mom, and then you know, she storms out, never talks to you again. I learned it from watching you guys, mom.

SPEAKER_07

I learned it from watching you.

SPEAKER_01

Oh my gosh. I found my dad's stash once.

SPEAKER_08

Oh no.

SPEAKER_01

His stash. I I mean he had a few things, yeah.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah. See this mom, dad. This is easy to explain. You know, you guys, you did it, so I'm here, so you understand. However, ignore the camcorder in the other uh side of the room. Also, don't watch any of your reruns of Jag that you have on VHS in it.

SPEAKER_10

I feel like this one question could inspire an entire episode on its own.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_10

Things that we saw and did as children. Put that on the book. Oh man.

SPEAKER_01

Oh man.

SPEAKER_10

Alright, JL, why why don't you hit us with one? I got nothing. Unless nobody's answered, unless not everybody's answered yet.

SPEAKER_08

I don't think I've officially answered, but I'm mine's the same as everybody else. I I would rather be in on.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, absolutely.

SPEAKER_08

Although there is, you know, there is kind of the would be kind of nice to not nice, but like, you know, it would be interesting to walk in on my parents and be like Oh, they're still in love. Walk in and be like, Dad, you're alive.

SPEAKER_02

So that's how you do it.

SPEAKER_01

Oh I'm just gonna sit here and take notes. Yeah. Oh gosh.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

You already know you want to keep going. No, Rob, keep going.

SPEAKER_01

It takes Joe a few rounds to come up with one. So he's percolating. Okay.

SPEAKER_07

They're trivia nights, they run the same way. Rob has everything prepared, and Joe's like, ooh, I have a question. Ask them throw that into it.

SPEAKER_01

No.

SPEAKER_10

I mean, it kind of is the opposite.

SPEAKER_01

No, Joe comes in and likes to say that all the sports questions are because I don't because I love them and I don't love them. Like I don't know.

SPEAKER_10

He dedicates all the sports questions to Daphne, basically.

SPEAKER_01

Always. Always.

SPEAKER_02

That's a nice idea. Well, you've you've emailed us, you've written us letters. You know, sports, please.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. It's it usually starts as this little story that has nothing to do with trivia. And then it ends up being, and then the email came in that Daphne said we need more sports questions. Yeah.

SPEAKER_07

Had a messenger pigeon, carrier pigeon came in through the window, and it was like, in case you missed my email.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, exactly.

SPEAKER_02

I think one of my favorites was that uh there was a recent uh archaeological dig in like Argentina, and it revealed some uh incredibly old bones and also a note that suggested I ask more sports questions at trivia. So who can deny this guy goes with his setup? Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

He tells like it's like a dissertation on things. And you can tell when it's coming because he just starts and it's like, yep, okay, it's a sports question. Yep. And that is a cryp uh not always, but it can be kryptonite for my team.

SPEAKER_02

Some people enjoy the dissertations, not you, but no, because I know where they're going every time.

SPEAKER_01

It's like it's gonna be a sports question.

SPEAKER_10

See, it's not just you guys that haze her every week on Tuesdays. We we get that on Wednesdays.

SPEAKER_01

Always.

SPEAKER_02

There'll only be one sports question tomorrow.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, good. Yeah, but I don't have any sports people coming. Duncan's coming. He's the closest we have to a sports person. Him and I know random, ridiculous things, but yeah, no.

SPEAKER_08

Unless you can get Rinaldi to come.

SPEAKER_01

No, he's out until April.

SPEAKER_08

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_09

Yeah, I've got injury lists on IR. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_09

He's a little bit. I'm excited for this next one. Mainly for Rob.

SPEAKER_03

For me. See, this I was wrong. I was so, so wrong.

SPEAKER_09

Yes.

SPEAKER_03

Because I you all need to be on my side.

SPEAKER_01

You all get along way too well. And I should have known it. I should have gotten it.

SPEAKER_10

I already knew it when I listened to the this part this subject of a podcast, uh, what, six, seven months ago. I'm like, I can hang with these guys.

SPEAKER_01

I mean, obviously, I keep coming back, and it's because I love them so much. They're just the best.

SPEAKER_08

And we've locked the door behind her.

SPEAKER_01

And you they won't let me leave. Oh. I'm the straight, I'm basically like the straight man on a comedy podcast, is what it is. They explained it to me. There is a purpose for me.

SPEAKER_06

Yes.

SPEAKER_01

Because uh otherwise I just sit here and take it.

SPEAKER_02

It's nice that they've set up a Matt Lauer room for you, though, at your house. I know, right?

SPEAKER_01

So appreciated. And some days I come out, I wear a tiara and remind them that I am the queen of Buffalo Buffalo.

SPEAKER_09

Oh man.

SPEAKER_01

Okay, Rob, what do you got for us?

SPEAKER_10

Daphne. And everybody else, but mostly Daphne. Would you rather feel water splash up in a porta-potty or run out of toilet paper mid-crisis?

SPEAKER_08

I knew she was gonna struggle. Water splashing from a porta-potty is concerning because like most of the porta potties I've been at are about 12 feet deep. Yes. So it's like where did that water come from? There's impact. Yeah, that was the impact.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, it's like I'm I'm I'm not inclined to use any sugar shacks as I call them, but but the uh sugar shacks. Yeah, I call them sugar shacks. You know, it's an ironic name because there's no sugar in the show. Oh, it's ironic. Okay.

SPEAKER_08

I thought you were just were like enjoying the the treats that were inside.

SPEAKER_07

You have snacks in a porta potty?

SPEAKER_10

While you guys were thinking, I will share a quick porta-potty story. Oh god, uh with with my mother involved. Joe, shut your mouth. She came out of a porta-potty. This was years ago when they started when they started putting the little um like soap things in there.

SPEAKER_01

Oh yeah, that was a nice addition.

SPEAKER_10

Uh, but they weren't uh they weren't for your hands. They were for the urinal. However, my mother came out and uh the soap that was in the urinal, she didn't know it was a urinal, nor did she she thought it was soap to wash her hands. Oh it's a deodorant. She washed her hands with the urinal cake.

SPEAKER_04

Oh god! No.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_10

Yep. Okay, so yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_01

You don't want to know, Rob. You don't want to know what he said? It's more.

SPEAKER_10

Joe, she's done way grosser things in her life, including you. Oh Did I just say that?

SPEAKER_05

Did I just say that? Yes, you did.

SPEAKER_01

Yes, you did.

SPEAKER_05

No, but I have had had I have had the uh the second instance happen to me once upon a time. That was about twenty, you know, back when I was a young baby engineer out in the field.

SPEAKER_07

Uh doing Which is a weird place for engineers to be. Yes. It's just grass out there.

SPEAKER_05

Yes. No, but uh no, uh I was out in the field and I got I got back and I was like suddenly I realized I had an emergency, and then I was like, I stopped off at a roadside store, went used a restroom, and then realized it's like I was it was such urgency that you know You didn't check before um it didn't check, and because I could have gone to the other one, they probably would have had it, but and I I relayed this uh story to my brother and he asked me what'd you do? And it's like, well, let's just say I have one less pair of socks today.

unknown

Oh god.

SPEAKER_05

Um I'm gonna go with this.

SPEAKER_01

I'm gonna go with this. Um I will deal with the crisis because I just won't have underwear for the rest of the day for till I get home. Thank you, Jerry, for giving me that idea.

SPEAKER_07

As shocking in the moment as it is, I feel like I have to go the other way because it's like feeling the water splash. It's like it's traumatic for a moment, but then at least on the flip side, I know I have enough toilet paper available to try to take care of it the best I can.

SPEAKER_10

Does anybody like 100% like does anybody like lean up like higher in hopes that the water won't hit you? But in reality, you're actually making the water probably go higher because it's a bigger just bigger job.

SPEAKER_01

I never want to go in a porta potty again now. It's over.

SPEAKER_07

Well, it's great that you're going to a big uh full uh full day-long outdoor musical school.

SPEAKER_08

So good that I will 100% take Poseidon's kiss over the and you've lost Jerry.

SPEAKER_03

Are you proud of yourself? Are you proud of yourself, Gary? Uh Jeff? Are you proud?

SPEAKER_07

Poseidon's kiss is an established that's an official like term. I've heard.

SPEAKER_01

But you have taken Jerry out for who knows how long. His brain needs to reboot.

SPEAKER_07

I love how Rob has been slowly just zooming in on his face more and more key as the night has gone on.

SPEAKER_01

No, it's it's a new Zoom thing. There's a setting in Zoom, and it zooms and does all sorts of things. Wait, my face is going in and out.

SPEAKER_08

I have to have it. Every time it does it, it's like I feel like it's some dramatic thing that is like, oh, he's about to do something.

SPEAKER_10

I did click on something about some AI thing. And it said it was supposed to like make your it was like make it makes your zoom cooler or something. So maybe I shouldn't do that. It is cool.

SPEAKER_03

We we have the AI companion.

SPEAKER_10

Oh, it's AI companion.

SPEAKER_01

Okay, so we have AI companion on because at the end, when we're done recording, we ask. Get questions like who made Daphne the maddest, or what was the most ridiculous moment in the podcast?

SPEAKER_10

Oh, that's amazing. I want to hear it.

SPEAKER_01

And it tells us it it sends me a little report at the end, too, of things that some things didn't really happen. It just makes it up. Uh all right.

SPEAKER_10

I got one more, and then I have to go to bed because this is way past my bedtime.

SPEAKER_01

No, we're good. This is it.

SPEAKER_02

I didn't answer.

SPEAKER_01

All right, Joe.

SPEAKER_02

What's your answer, Joe? I've actually had the first one happen to me before because I used I used to work construction. It was like one of my first jobs while I was in college, and we had the same job site, and the porta potty company just never came to empty that freaking porta potty. So it just getting worse and worse. And you there was no urinal thing, right? So like it was on the side of a street, so you can't just necessarily pull down and pee. So I remember going in there and and peeing, and then a little splashy splash came up on me, and I was like, oh god. Uh and you just have to live with it for the rest of the day at that point. But the brilliant wine, I actually had a good friend. We were going to uh uh somebody's camp by a lake. We thought it was gonna be unlocked, it wasn't. He had to go really, really bad, and the only thing we had available was a subway bag, and uh that's that's what he shit into is a subway bag.

unknown

Oh my god.

SPEAKER_02

It's like full circle. Yep, there was no napkins either, so he had to use his underwear, but that was right back where it came from.

SPEAKER_06

Yes, yep, yeah.

SPEAKER_02

That was a different kind of footlong. All right, Rob, wrap it up. Bring us home.

SPEAKER_06

All right.

SPEAKER_10

I got one more. Would you rather, and it's actually not uh as we're to continue to talk about shit, let's just do it one more time. Would you rather have explosive diarrhea once a month without warning?

SPEAKER_07

Or have to tell Do you usually get warning for it?

SPEAKER_10

Well, I guess it depends.

SPEAKER_07

Do you have some kind of alert on your phone that's like tomorrow's diarrhea day?

SPEAKER_10

No, I'm talking about at the moment. At the moment. It happens like right then. Yeah, like the severe weather alert.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, there's no radar to watch with this. Okay.

SPEAKER_10

Would you rather have explosive diarrhea once a month without warning, or have to tell the absolute truth anytime when anytime someone says, be honest?

SPEAKER_01

I'm gonna tell the truth.

SPEAKER_02

Of course you would.

SPEAKER_01

I would. I don't know. No, I'm definitely not, but I would rather tell the truth because I try to tell the truth anyway.

SPEAKER_02

I think I already have explosive diarrhea once a month, so I'm just gonna go with that.

SPEAKER_08

It's the without warning that gets me, because it's like I I can deal with it happening once a month if I at least have two or three minutes, you know? But if it's like just spontaneously, I'm in the middle of a business meeting or something like that, and it's just like yeah.

SPEAKER_01

It just it just becomes no. Yeah.

SPEAKER_08

I mean, I think yeah, I'm gonna have to go with tell the truth when asked.

SPEAKER_05

I'm gonna go tell the truth because no. Because no.

SPEAKER_01

Because no. Because yeah no, okay?

SPEAKER_10

Because yeah, no. All the situations you've been in where you're like had to tell the truth and you didn't.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_10

You have to do that every time.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_08

But people have to say be honest, but you have to say be honest.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah.

SPEAKER_08

No, if someone says be honest, you have to be honest. If it's a liar, liar situation where I have to I'm constantly volunteering the truth even when nobody asks. Yeah, no.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah. Well, that wasn't. Nobody else knows that's the rule. They can't use it against you. They feel like, oh, if we say be honest, maybe they figure it out after a while. Who knows? Well, just guys say be honest. Because I'm known for lying unless somebody says be honest. Yep.

SPEAKER_08

Every new thing tells the deepest, darkest secrets. It's really worrying.

SPEAKER_01

Well, thank you, Rob and Joe, for gracing us with your presence.

SPEAKER_10

That was fun, guys. Yeah. Thanks so much for having us.
