George Milton 0:48

Welcome everybody to Veto the podcast. The podcast where all we want for Christmas is you, baby. I'm George Milton. I'm your host and the Internet's favorite uncle. The fun. I'm joined today. As always, buy my two little Christmas selves Justin Schafer. What's

justin 1:10

Ho, ho, ho Mary, everything.

George Milton 1:13

What'd you call me?

justin 1:14

Everything.

George Milton 1:15

And I'm also joined by, uh, Sam's other little helper, Brent Bobbit.

Brent 1:20

Thank you. I design and make all the toys here.

George Milton 1:23

He designs and makes all the toys here, uh, as per usual. We haven't done this in a while because of holidays and stuff, but guys, uh, I got some Christmas gifts for you. Uh, they're on your desks in front of you if you wanna go ahead and open

justin 1:38

Ooh, look at these veto cards. They're so pretty.

Brent 1:43

Huh.

justin 1:45

They're get, you're getting better at this. You're getting better at this.

George Milton 1:48

yeah. Thanks, man. Um, you've each got two shiny veto cards.

Brent 1:53

So that was you that broke into my house last night. I didn't know what, because nothing was missing. But now I see that it's just extra stuff here

George Milton 2:00

Well, condo is like on the 29th floor. It does have a balcony or the 24th floor.

Brent 2:06

and forth.

George Milton 2:07

Uh, it does have a balcony, which helped, but it is a pretty high climb.

Brent 2:12

I never, I never locked those doors, so

George Milton 2:15

yeah. Well, I mean, you never knew you needed to, but now you should lock'em.'cause I got in there, I gave your veto cards. We just have two veto cards that we can use. How was y'all's Christmas? We haven't, I haven't talked to you guys since actual Christmas. How was it?

justin 2:31

Okay.

George Milton 2:31

it good?

Brent 2:33

Yeah, mine. I, I went to see family in Indiana, which is, as everybody knows, usually referred to as the most exciting state in the, in the country. So, um, yeah, man, it's like. Really kind of a Christmas heaven. Usually you get white Christmases up there. But uh, this year it was like a nice, like 54 and, uh, soggy. So, uh, you know, just really puts you in that Christmas spirit.

justin 3:00

Well, that's like, I mean, we had.

George Milton 3:01

that I was

justin 3:03

54 in Soggy. Is that your,

George Milton 3:04

That's gonna be me in 11 years.

justin 3:08

you'll never be soggy, George. You'll always be a Greek God just glistening with your shirt off. Walking around the park. I.

George Milton 3:16

We, both me and Brent both, uh, are wearing tank tops today. Justin didn't get the memo.

justin 3:22

I didn't get the memo. I'm sorry guys, but yeah, you know, I should be wearing a tank top.'cause we had 80 degree weather here for Christmas in Austin, which was very strange. Um, and it felt. It felt soggy. Yeah, it felt really weird and soggy to be, uh, in that warmth. But yeah, we had a lovely time. Parents came down, get to spend some time with George singing some creed Miss as we do every year in our hood, which was another epic, uh, jingle walk in our neighborhood, which is we have this like tradition of doing basically a pub crawl from one house to the other where every house hosts like a drink and a little nibble, and we. Go around, uh, just enjoying each other's company and we always usually end up at George's house, uh, till the end of time singing and.

George Milton 4:10

we always end up at George's house, I'm rethinking, I'm rethinking. I'm rethinking having all the adults in our neighborhood who have been drinking for like seven hours at my house. I do have to repaint a wall

Brent 4:25

Oh no.

George Milton 4:26

there was a drink spilled on it this

justin 4:29

can't take anybody anywhere.

George Milton 4:31

Uh, it is an epic time though, and we do, we were just talking about this before we hit record, but like, this is the third year in a row that the night has basically revved up to all of us singing, uh, higher by the band Creed at my piano. That's like the pinnacle of it's creed mess.

justin 4:51

It's creed, miss, and then it's also the signal of like, all right, we sang our song, it's time to go home now. That's the, it's the closing time song.

George Milton 4:59

Yeah. Uh, we also, we also did all I want for Christmas is You'cause but I couldn't remember of it.

Brent 5:09

Like

justin 5:10

we've had, we had a few, we had a few cocktails. We had a few cocktails. So.

George Milton 5:14

like, like any of it I can get into it. get into it, I can get a verse into it, and then when it goes to the, uh, like when it switches to the little bridge section, I don't know the words. I, I kind of know the melody and the chords, but only kind of, so, but you know what, we did it, we got through it. Uh, we

justin 5:37

we did the thing.

George Milton 5:38

here. We stayed here for Christmas. We didn't, uh, we didn't travel anywhere, which I like, but it also, like, we did not have the craziness of Christmas. Which is, you know, it's nice to have a little craziness in Christmas, I feel like.

justin 5:54

I feel like there's so much craziness leading up to Christmas that like when Christmas actually came this year, it was like we sat and did nothing. I didn't get outta my PJ's all day long until the nighttime. That felt really nice to not be running around doing a million things with kids at school and, and things in the neighborhood. All it was just like, Hey, wake up. Have a nice, well, actually, the kids woke up really early to open all the presents. I was like, it's six 30 in the morning. Why are you awake on Christmas this early? But you can't stop the avalanche once it's coming. And then we just, you know, had a nice coffee chilled out. They cooked a really beautiful meal at the end of the night. So yeah, it was pretty, it was nice to kind of just have some chill and uh, hang out.

George Milton 6:40

Uh, did you guys get Christmas presents?

Brent 6:46

Yes, I got new shoes and shirts

George Milton 6:52

dude. What kind of shoes?

Brent 6:54

on clouds. Boom.

George Milton 6:56

nice, nice little plug for OnCloud, one

justin 6:58

Yeah, we, uh, we kind of stopped doing presents for, uh, me and Melissa. We kind of just like. We buy the things that we want, or we do the projects around the house that we want, and we're kind of the, he is like, if I want something, I'm just going to buy it. We're gonna talk about it, and then I'll get it. So buying each other presents, we're kind of like, eh, we'll buy the kids presents and do the things, but like, let's just do the things throughout the year that we want to do and then, yeah, not worry about it at Christmas.

George Milton 7:28

We each got ourselves, uh, sweatpants and a sweatshirt and. Erin also got me a child's slingshot that shoots these little things, little like fuzzy balls that you're supposed to be able to shoot inside. And she shotted at me as hard as she could just to dust it out. Um, I'm okay guys. Don't worry about me. But we

justin 7:53

I link twice.

George Milton 7:54

slingshot shooter.

justin 7:56

Do you come up with like a theme of like, Hey, we're doing silly gifts this year, or we're just go out and we'll get a matching sweatsuit, but like you pick yours for me and I'll pick the one for you.

George Milton 8:08

Uh, we don't, we don't do cri, we don't do Christmas gifts that hard. Erin's birthday is like, is like a few days before Christmas, so I always try to go hard for her birthday. instead of going hard for Christmas, just'cause she's in that season of like, of like, uh, her birthday gets overlooked in favor of Christmas. don't like that. I don't like that. I don't like that. It just gets lumped in there. So

justin 8:35

Yeah, Heidi's about to have her birthday too, so it's like.

Brent 8:37

birthday to Christmas. It's, uh, I can say any, any, any mature adults over it by now, trust me, who cares about a birthday?

George Milton 8:45

tell Erin that you said that. And don't worry, she doesn't listen to this podcast.

justin 8:49

You should get her like a glow in the dark jump rope next time so she can elevate the jump rope game.

George Milton 8:56

That's actually pretty cool, but I can't confirm. She's got a whole bunch of jump ropes. I can't confirm she doesn't already have one.

justin 9:03

Hmm.

George Milton 9:04

hey, do you guys wanna do this podcast today because I'm raring to go. had, I my coffee. I've got the di dice of Destiny, uh, right here. Brent's gonna be one and two today.

Brent 9:16

Oh yeah.

George Milton 9:17

Justin is gonna be three and four and uh, I'll be five or six. That is a one and that one for a Brent.

Brent 9:28

Alright, well then, uh, I'd kind of mentioned it a little bit ahead of when we started, but, uh, last time we did the game of trying to figure out the botched lyrics after being run through multiple translations across several languages. And then, uh. Coming back into English finally. And, uh, I think some of the problems with last time that made the game too easy is one, you know, while they were very popular songs, I was also starting right at the beginning of the song. I feel like it adds an element of challenge to not necessarily start from, from the first lyric. Uh, I also found a couple of other languages that when putting the, the. Chain of translations through there, it seemed to, to come out with a particularly, uh, ESL sounding output whenever I came back to, to English. So, um,

George Milton 10:20

you took some semi-popular lyrics in English, then translated them through like several different languages and then back into English.

Brent 10:28

you know, exactly. And some of these, uh, are, are still very popular songs. Uh, you know, so I think all, actually, I'm, I'm gonna start off with. Some of the ones that I would consider to be on the easier side of it, and we'll, uh, we'll, we'll ramp up a little bit from there. Uh, okay, so this one, let's, let's see if you guys can, uh, can get this and shout out, uh, you know, the, the artist and title whenever you have it, and you'll score a point by doing so. Alright, first one, here we go. His hair is hanging down until his knees. He must be a clown or a trick man.

George Milton 11:07

The Beatles. Uh, I give how, what is it? Um.

Brent 11:15

He only does the things he wants to do. He,

George Milton 11:20

Please come together. Come together by the Beatles.

Brent 11:23

it's, but my favorite part of this is, uh, you know, he says, uh, this ends up with, come together now, right now on top of me. And that makes the lyric a lot funnier to me.

George Milton 11:37

That does

Brent 11:38

Uh, um,

George Milton 11:39

always sang it. Is that not how you do it?

Brent 11:42

um, great. Uh, so wait, here was another one. This one will be a, a little bit harder. Uh, I'm packed already and I'm going away smiling. She's living like a gold color. She lives for me. Says this many times. She lives because of me

justin 12:07

This is Billy Joel.

George Milton 12:10

Right.

justin 12:11

Uh.

Brent 12:11

That's, that's the one. Do, do you?

George Milton 12:13

life.

Brent 12:14

That's the one.

George Milton 12:16

Yes.

Brent 12:18

all right. Well, that's

George Milton 12:19

right? Is it third eye

Brent 12:20

by third eye blind.

George Milton 12:21

God, I'm

Brent 12:21

That's, that's.

George Milton 12:22

this game.

justin 12:24

You are awesome, George. I bow down to your greatness.

George Milton 12:28

Oh, well it sounded a little bit sarcastic, but I'm just gonna. Skate right

Brent 12:32

Um, one that I think might be a little bit more difficult. Still was a very popular song.

George Milton 12:38

Okay.

Brent 12:39

You were having many connections inside this life, but only maybe one or two are staying for a long time. You walk through much hurt and difficult moments. There's not nothing that hard. George, I think is just too good at this game to make this game any

justin 13:05

Yeah, but I still enjoy this game, even though here's a fun fact. I love music. I love singing along to music, but as my wife will attest, I don't know lyrics, so I just make up lyrics as I go.

Brent 13:15

you know what? I need to, I need to plug you up with this strategy here and have you do it, and then me and George need to battle this out. Um, okay.

justin 13:24

Yeah, because you guys would probably be a better battle than me and George

Brent 13:29

Yeah. Uh

justin 13:33

would we call it the dueling piano set?

Brent 13:36

Okay. I would not do it if I am you. I am knowing what she is able to do. She is dangerous, man. She can break your

justin 13:50

Is poison.

Brent 13:52

no, not that one

George Milton 13:53

There

Brent 13:54

Mind.

George Milton 13:54

watch out. Here she come.

Brent 13:59

George

justin 13:59

man.

Brent 14:01

George is correct.

justin 14:02

Are they still not talking to each other? Those whole all notes, or do they figure this stuff out?

Brent 14:06

each other still. Um,

justin 14:07

That's just like the,

George Milton 14:08

guys, because I've

justin 14:09

well, one guy was like, I did everything and you did nothing, and the other guy didn't like it.

Brent 14:16

yeah. Uh, yeah. I think one of'em said like, uh, you know, I was, I was very lucky to have met. He was like, and then he was like, yes, you did. Or like, walked off stage or I, I don't know. how about this one? You ready? Okay. The play of passion is finished now and it is falling apart. I am the place where your self destroy is coming from. The veins are pushing fear inside you, drinking very dark things that look clear, guiding you slowly towards the building of your death.

George Milton 14:50

Is

justin 14:51

Whoa.

George Milton 14:52

is this JRR Tolkien?

justin 14:54

Yeah, we walk into the fires of Moore Door.

Brent 14:58

taste me and then you will understand more is the only thing you are needing. I am fully devoted to the way I'm ending. You

justin 15:09

I feel like this is going to do you like pina coladas getting caught in the rain?

Brent 15:14

More fast. You must obey your master,

justin 15:18

Obey your master puppet master.

Brent 15:20

Your life is burning more fast. must obey your master

George Milton 15:27

Well, I feel like we got it. We brought it home with that. Right.

Brent 15:30

We brought it home with that, huh? Okay. Last one. Fi.

George Milton 15:34

Yeah.

justin 15:34

Yeah, this is dark. Metallica goes dark, man.

George Milton 15:37

Yeah. Especially when you translate it into like Slavic and back.

justin 15:40

Yeah.

Brent 15:44

okay. Uh, final, final one here. Ready? All right. You were appearing very okay, and everything around you calm. I am not doing so. Okay. thought you should something be knowing. Did you forget about me, Mr. Person, with two faces? I do not wanna bother you you were eating your dinner, but this thing felt like a hit to my face. I was fastly removed.

George Milton 16:19

Be open wide,

justin 16:23

Lyrics are really weird when you read it. This is really weird.

George Milton 16:32

Alanis, it's Alanis, right?

Brent 16:33

That's Yeah. Um.

George Milton 16:36

That was a pretty good one. The last two. The last two I feel like got a little tougher.

Brent 16:41

Tough. Uh, well, may maybe this one all, all right. Hang on. Um, okay. I understand that you are wanting me to remain, but I cannot close my eyes to the wild pictures of me, myself existing there, and I heard there is one special location. Where boys and girls are allowed to be royalty every day without,

George Milton 17:06

Pony Club. Pink Pony Club. Pink Pony Club.

justin 17:09

Favorite song?

Brent 17:10

conclude the game. I had a couple more, but I feel like they were too easy to, uh, even dig into. So,

justin 17:16

Is that one of the most requested songs when you're playing now? Brent, like Pink Pony Club.

Brent 17:20

Um, it has retracted in its popularity request by a little bit from its peak, but I would say it still remains very popular. But, uh, it did, it did come down from its, you know, like from its height for sure.

justin 17:35

I know Creed had to take it over. I get it.

Brent 17:38

That's right. Yeah. They're making, they're still on the upswing.

George Milton 17:41

Is Creed still in the upswing?

justin 17:43

They never went anywhere.

Brent 17:45

Oh, they did. They definitely went somewhere,

George Milton 17:47

they

Brent 17:47

but they,

George Milton 17:49

We were all, we were all surprised and excited to see him back.

justin 17:52

It was glorious.

George Milton 17:54

okay. Brent, who do you wanna toss to? Man, we won't even dice of destiny yet. You can just toss it.

Brent 17:59

Um, no, I wanna, I like the dice of destiny. I think that's.

George Milton 18:03

Dice of destiny one through three will be me. four through six will be J man.

justin 18:09

Let's go. That's me. That's the J dog.

Brent 18:14

Was

justin 18:14

Um, so

Brent 18:16

and a bunch of different things.

justin 18:17

Jay and the everything, yeah, just say anything. Just, you know, you just say earmuffs and then you can say cock shit, ball motherfucker. Um, so yeah, I mean, we're in that season and there's a special kind of movies. I don't know about you guys, but I love Christmas movies. Uh, and we do enjoy watching the new cheesy ones as well. The problem is a lot of these new cheesy ones. Have just gotten bad and cheesy, not like good cheesy. So, you know, we have to throw it back to the classics. So there's a few, we're gonna talk about perfectly rated, underrated, uh, movies right now for the holiday set. We're over, we're overrated. Uh, but

Brent 19:02

rated.

justin 19:03

yeah, no, we're definitely not rated. Uh. Yeah, so did, so did your mom. But so we're gonna start off with my favorite that I have to watch every year. Uh, this is the classic comedy. It is just fantastic. Uh, and you'll know it just by this line. The shitter is full

George Milton 19:26

Yeah,

justin 19:26

national Lampoons Christmas vacation is just, uh. Iconic. Fantastic. It still holds up amazingly, which is wild, and it's always a good fun laugh. But I wanted to hear what you fellas have to say about National Lampoons Christmas vacation. I'll give you the drum roll. Duh.

Brent 19:50

Uh,

George Milton 19:50

national

Brent 19:51

you go, George.

George Milton 19:51

vacation. I can't, I can't quote it like I watched this movie twice a year. Around Christmas time and I can't really quote it. I know like when you quote it, I know what you're quoting for. Sure. Um, but yeah,

justin 20:08

Santa squeezes his ass down in his chimney. He'll see the jollies. Bunch of assholes since Bing Crosby. Tap dance with Danny Fucking K. Hallelujah. Holy shit.

George Milton 20:20

I mean, I think that it's pretty highly rated as a Christmas classic. I would probably say, I would probably give this one a properly rated, right? I

Brent 20:30

I mean, so my, my take would be that like I, I don't know what, don't know exactly where it stands in the minds of the younger generation of this day, and I think that would be some info I would really need to know, to know exactly where it is currently. I. Rated as far as pop culture goes, because for anybody, like in our generation, yeah, I mean like that was a classic thing. Like one of the ones that has withstood the test of time. So like, I, I'd like to say perfectly rated, but I almost wanna suspect that if you're like 20 years old right now, you probably, or maybe, maybe you do, but maybe you also don't know that movie as well. And if you, if you don't, then maybe it falls into. Underrated. As far as my current knowledge, I'll say perfectly rated because I don't know, but I would say that one deserves to be held in high regard. Uh, unlike George, I I can quote a good majority of that movie, uh, so like, yeah, I, I say probably perfectly rated, but if the younger generation doesn't know it, they should, and then it becomes underrated.

justin 21:37

Yeah, that was some good logic right there. And I think now you've changed my thing. I think it might be a little underrated'cause I bet you the younger generation does not appreciate that movie for how good and how magical it is. And the fact that it still is awesome after all these years. A lot of movies don't hold up, but that one still, like that one still delivers every year, multiple times.

Brent 21:59

Although that is one of those movies that serves as like painful reminders that actors that I really enjoyed watching in films like this can. up to be just total assholes that nobody wants to work with. Which, I mean, I wish I could still see Chevy Chase and things, but nobody wants to work with him. I wish I could still see Randy Quaid, but he went off the deep end of the crazy pool and, uh, he's not coming back. So, you know, it's just, yeah. You know, it's a, I love watching them in their, in their peak, but it, it is sometimes a little bit bittersweet, like, oh man,

justin 22:30

I know it is.

Brent 22:31

those guys aren't in anything anymore.

George Milton 22:32

just feel like I'm, I just think to myself, I'm just, I'm watching 1989, Randy, Randy Quaid. I'm not watching 2025 Randy Quaid.

justin 22:40

I mean, I'm just bummed. It is a bummer that Chevy Chase was, is such an asshole that people just don't wanna work with him. Like you just like, oh man, why? You're so awesome. But.

Brent 22:51

humble up a little bit, man, you're great. Everybody loves you. You don't have to keep telling them all the time how great you are.

justin 22:55

I know seriously. Uh,

George Milton 22:58

up bro.

justin 22:58

humble up, bro. Humble up.

George Milton 23:00

that.

justin 23:01

Yeah. Instead of sit down, be humble. Just say Humble up, bro.

George Milton 23:05

Humble

Brent 23:05

yeah, I think it's mine. So anytime someone says that I should get like, uh, like a 10th of a penny or something like that, but,

justin 23:12

Perfect.

George Milton 23:13

does the 10th of a penny come from?

Brent 23:15

uh, I don't just, somebody else needs to work that out. I, I came up with the idea, um.

George Milton 23:21

think you came up with that idea, bro? I need, I think you need to humble up.

Brent 23:27

That's

justin 23:27

Uh, so now I'm gonna, I'm gonna take you guys off on a tangent here'cause this one is gonna spark a lot of debate.

George Milton 23:34

Oh gosh.

justin 23:36

This is gonna get a little weird and wild. This one might be the most, yeah, I'm gonna say die hard yippy.

George Milton 23:41

It's a Christmas movie. We don't have to do that. It's a Christmas movie.

justin 23:45

I disagree that it's a Christmas movie.

George Milton 23:47

well if you disagreed so much, you wouldn't have brought it to the Christmas movie segment, would you?

justin 23:52

Well, I just thought it would be a fun one to throw in, to give you a little curve ball, but, uh, I see where you stand. I see the, the line has been drawn in the sand.

Brent 24:03

I will say that I am just, George's logic that he just threw out there is pretty impeccable. That's gonna be hard to get around. You brought it to the Christmas movie discussion.

justin 24:13

Shut your filthy whore mouth.

Brent 24:16

Uh, no. You know what?

George Milton 24:17

you might

Brent 24:17

I will,

George Milton 24:18

up a little bit.

Brent 24:19

I will

justin 24:19

I.

Brent 24:20

I'll, I'll chime in here as someone that will consider myself a somewhat. Relatively recent convert to the Diehard as a Christmas movie train. I grew up never really feeling that it was, and I would've argued, no. It's simply an action movie that happens to have a little bit of Christmas decor in the background because it takes place around Christmas time, not a Christmas movie, but I think that. Over the years, it's been one of those things that even if you wanna say it was sort of a square peg round hole, it has been so consistently brought in at around Christmas time that I do not think of that movie at any time of the year, besides Christmas time. And so like, I think now, for better or for worse, regardless of what the subject matter of the film is, I think that our. Our culture is, it's, it's been made a Christmas movie. I think it absolutely is a Christmas movie, and it's a good movie, inarguably. So, uh, you know, uh, because there's so many people that won't accept it as part of the Christmas movie culture, I'm giving it an under underrated, underrated stamp it right there, boom.

justin 25:26

I'm going completely overrated because I don't, I still don't agree that it's a Christmas movie. I think it's a movie that takes place during Christmas as a backdrop, but it doesn't get breed into the Christmas spirit. I think that's what it's missing for me. I get people love it. I love Die Hard. I think diehards awesome. Just don't come at me, bro.

George Milton 25:45

I think it's, I, so Aaron and I were having this conversation, our annual rehashing of this exact conversation, like, I don't know, three, four days ago on Christmas. And I think that you're right that it's like Christmas is used as a setting. It's Christmas is used as like a character. Like we are all so familiar with Christmas, just makes you feel a certain way they use it as a setting that we all kind of like know how we're supposed to feel. And so the violence is like kind of a stark contrast to that setting. The, the same way of as if, like, I used a children's play as a setting for like a bunch of like profanity. It would be like stark to contrast like profanity with like a children's play. So I think that it was intentionally used. Now this was. Diehard was released is a summer blockbuster. So like, it was not intended to be a Christmas movie. I, I do think that the fact that like, it's such a, I don't know.'cause like home Alone, you could make the argument that like Alone is a comedy about a kid who gets left at home. And I could set that during any time. Right. But I set

Brent 26:52

But they didn't.

George Milton 26:53

But they didn't, yeah, they didn't. So like, they chose. Christmas for the Setting. Home Alone was released as a Christmas movie, but like there's a bunch of, uh, we were looking up a bunch of like, uh, what's that one where the, God, I'm for blanking it now. The, the movie where it's like the guys and they, it's like a, a Christmas heist and they're, they get stuck in the small town for like, they get like snowed in anyway, it's like a heist. It's like a heist comedy movie, and it's set during Christmas. And the fact that it's set during Christmas, like it's not about Christmas. set during Christmas, and so you're like, I don't know. I think that my, my read on diehard is just like, it wasn't meant to be a Christmas movie and probably for the first 20 years that it existed, it wasn't a Christmas movie, but now it's so like with like American Christmas. Like the fact that you even brought it up in the Christmas movie list is kind of just like we know that we're all thinking about die hard during Christmas, even if it's to say, well die hard's not a Christmas movie.

justin 27:56

Well, here's the thing is like, so there's this director Shane, uh, Shane Black, right? He did, uh, iron Man three.

Brent 28:02

Shane Black.

justin 28:03

Yeah, the nice guys, uh, predator, uh, kiss, kiss, bang, bang. And he always sets his movies during Christmas because he likes the, the mechanic of having this gives an energy to the film. It gives something extra to do. Uh, it gives you something to play with. It gives you a backdrop to play with, right? It's just something a little bit more. But he always does Christmas, even in predators. He did Christmas, but like, I don't know if I would consider any of his movies, Christmas movies. And I guess that's kind of where diehard fits in for me.

George Milton 28:38

Isn't there? I, I haven't seen diehard in like the original, diehard in a while, but isn't McClain trying to, it like, kind of starts off with him trying to get this, uh, stuffed animal to his daughter or something. That's like his whole

Brent 28:51

Right.

justin 28:52

Lee's going back and he goes to see his ex-wife or his wife who they're separating at the Naka Plaza Christmas party.

George Milton 29:00

but he's got this, the, there is a through line of like, he delivers this gift. So I would say that there is like kind of a Christmas through line, and it's not really about the spirit of Christmas, but he overcomes some ox obstacles to get that, uh, gift to his daughter, daughter, son. I can't remember now, but,

justin 29:18

If you want a more of a Christmas version of this violent thing, have you ever seen that movie Violent Night? It came out a few years ago with David Harbor.

George Milton 29:24

about to watch that last night. It's like

justin 29:26

Oh, it's awesome. It's awesome.

George Milton 29:28

watch it tonight. We might watch violent Night tonight.

justin 29:30

Violent night is fun. It's David Harbor, a Santa Claus, and he helps fight these guys that are like kidnapping these rich people, like

George Milton 29:37

spoiler.

justin 29:38

their money.

George Milton 29:38

No

justin 29:39

Oh, it's magical, but it's like watching Santa Beat people up is pretty awesome.

George Milton 29:43

we were watching the trailer and it's like David Harbor is Santa Claus. Like, so one of the bad guys like does something and David, David Harbor like shows up as like badass Santa Claus and he's like, Santa Claus is coming to town. And we just both looked at each other like, oh, we gotta watch this movie. So

justin 29:59

it's so good because it's basically, it leans into like the Santa lore of when he was like a Viking or whatever it was. Um, so. That brings us now we left the violent one and you already talked about the next one we should go to.'cause I feel like this is the all time classic and we should go with home alone.

George Milton 30:19

Oh man,

Brent 30:21

Um, well, uh, hey, I'll jump in. Yeah. Uh, the, in my opinion. Home Alone is just the Christmas movie of all Christmas movies. Certainly a product of the era for of whenever I was growing up. But like, mean it's every little piece about that thing to me. Just of Christmas. I mean they obviously in the set design, they were. They were very intentional about choosing all colors that were gonna support that. But, um, you know, I feel like the, uh, the score that John Williams lent to the thing, uh, I mean, I, I'd be hard pressed to, to find something that sounds more Christmas to me than the home alone score. Um, but, you know, it's just, it's, it was that, that time whenever, you know, I, I'm. Roughly the same age, you know, as, as, as you guys are, as you know, Kevin. So like there was a lot of ways to be able to like, relate to, to that character as a kid and be like, oh, well if I was, if I was left I could have, you know, gotten through this the same way. And uh, you know, and there's certainly a kick of nostalgia that I get from that where, you know, just kind of like gives me that reminder of those feelings of Christmas that a lot of other Christmas movies don't necessarily. Due to the same degree. So no matter how highly you could rate home alone, I'm gonna say it just, it could never really live up to the amount of credit I feel the movie deserves. I'm going underrated on that one.

George Milton 31:48

I think that I'm gonna, I would probably also go underrated'cause I think that every decade, with the exception of the seventies, I can't think of a Christmas movie from the seventies, but like every decade kind of has like a, like best in class Christmas movie. Uh, the 1980s just barely is obviously diehard. Uh, the nineties is clearly like home alone. Uh, I think it was like 90 or 91. It was like early in the, like, I remember being pretty young when I came out, so like, it's early nineties, but like, it was like home alone was like a, like a quintessential kind of like nineties family. Comedy, you know, like it had all the elements of like the jerk older brother and like the, like, it just was like the, it was like so quintessentially

Brent 32:39

That's perfect.

George Milton 32:41

Yeah. It's, it's perfect. It's, I, I mean, pretty highly rated, but probably underrated as one of the be, I mean, you, because there's, if, if I was gonna say Best Christmas movie of all time, which I know is not the, the challenge, like I would definitely put. Home alone up there in the top three, maybe with May, and I don't even know what order I'd put these in, but Home alone, elf. And maybe like, it's a wonderful life. It would be like my top three list in some order. Um, and

Brent 33:13

Yeah, I'm gonna have to have some installment of a Christmas Carol. Some installment needs to, I feel like that one's also very,

George Milton 33:19

version of a Christmas carol. I know. But I would put that maybe as number four I,'cause I just

Brent 33:23

huh.

George Milton 33:24

I like the other three. The other three like, and Elf even felt like a nineties Christmas movie to me somehow,

justin 33:30

I think elf is the, the, the modern. Version of like the love of a Christmas movie, like Home Alone was right, like,'cause we have the eighties was National Lampoon's Christmas vacation, and then you have El uh, home Alone, which is the nineties, and then Elf was the early two thousands. And Elf is the another one that just like holds up amazing. And you know, there's a great, have you guys ever watched the movies that made us docuseries on Netflix? So there is a Christmas. Uh, rendition of this and they do one about Elf and Home alone. It's really interesting to watch to like all this behind the scenes stuff on those movies. So it's, it's worth, worth the watch,

George Milton 34:12

So what do we, what do we say? Home alone, underrated.

justin 34:15

I guess because of, yeah, it could never be rated high enough. I

George Milton 34:20

Never be

justin 34:20

think so. But you know what's really funny? I.

Brent 34:23

thing we didn't mention though, is like, I'll also throw out there, I think it's one of the rare times that's, that someone popped out a sequel based on the popularity of the first movie. That still totally holds up to the first film. You know,

justin 34:35

Yeah, the second one is good.

Brent 34:37

yeah, I'm putting the second one right up there with the first one as far as how much I enjoy it.

justin 34:41

Uh, yes. And you know what's interesting about Home Alone this year? Like usually, you know, the nar the narrative around it always is like, wow, what did his dad do to afford all his first class tickets and like that giant house and all this stuff, like, that's crazy. How rich were they? Um, but this year, I don't know if you guys caught this, there was all this stuff floating around the internet and all these things about how the Marley character was actually like. Jesus character and there were all this breakdown about how he was really this Jesus character throughout the film. And I was like, oh, that's after all these years. Finally something. No, the snow shoveler guy, you know, they start basically, they're saying like they start, you know, he's like salting the earth. Like Jesus salted the earth was a salt of the earth. And then. There was the bandage with the cut on his hand representing like, you know, the marks from being on the cross. And then at the end, his hands were healed. He didn't have the mark anywhere and he saves some redemption. All this stuff. There was all this stuff and it was like really interesting to see just a different take on, um, a classic movie that we've seen a million times.

Brent 35:46

I'm someone that even if it wasn't. I, I like, I don't know that when that was being written that that's what the writers intent, maybe it was, but you know, I'm someone that can appreciate, know, a, a parallel being drawn, rather intentional or not by the creators of it. So I found it

justin 36:02

Yeah,

Brent 36:03

uh, take on that

justin 36:04

well apparently Chris Columbus is a, a big Catholic, so that's why they were like, that's why the tone undertones might've been there. But it was, uh, it was just cool to, to see a apparel, like you said, I think he wrote it or direct, or was it John Hughes or John Hughes? John Hughes wrote it, I think, and then Chris Columbus directed it.

Brent 36:27

No, but, and discovered America, right? Same

justin 36:29

Yes. Yeah, exactly.

George Milton 36:31

Yeah. Yeah. And a good dude too, from what I hear. Uh, on that note, on that note, guys, we gotta take a quick break. Uh, we're gonna come back and I think it's gonna be by default be my turn and I get a

Brent 36:43

Ugh.

George Milton 36:43

to decide what I'm gonna torture y'all with.

justin 36:45

Let's go.

George Milton 36:46

right back. I.

justin 40:33

I.

George Milton 40:35

To bring. You said you were gonna go pee, but you're gone for like a poop amount of time.

Brent 40:40

I, it turned into something else. So,

justin 40:42

Yeah, I told you who's rubbing one out? I told you,

Brent 40:45

sometimes you just, you go to shake it and then you don't stop shaking it and

justin 40:49

Ugh,

Brent 40:49

you know it's,

justin 40:51

more than three shakes is pleasure and we ain't got that kind of time.

George Milton 40:54

I always heard two. Could I have been given it a third this whole time?

justin 40:57

Yep.

Brent 40:58

Wait, are

George Milton 40:59

Damn. Yeah. We're back, man. We're back. We're doing the, we're doing the cold. It's not a cold open. It's like a cold return. What do you call that?

justin 41:12

It is not a cold open.

Brent 41:15

do.

George Milton 41:15

it's mice.

Brent 41:16

music playing us in right now, most likely.

George Milton 41:18

Yeah, I hope so. It's probably gonna be because, uh. Because the open source, the like, uh, royalty free music is so good. It's probably gonna be something kind of sexy for like the content that we just had. So maybe some sexy music is playing and right now,

justin 41:33

You can put in Sono and then we just like create our own. Brent had three shakes turned into pleasure.

George Milton 41:41

Oh, that's not bad. It's not a bad melody, it's catchy. Um, uh, it's my turn to do a segment. I'm gonna give you guys a choice. Uh,'cause they got two, two segments. We could do, we could give advice to random people on the internet, or we could buy some weird stuff on the internet. Um, either way, we're going to the internet. gonna use

justin 42:05

Let's go to the internet.

George Milton 42:06

Let's go to the internet.

Brent 42:07

buy weird, like give me more info on on

George Milton 42:10

Well, so you remember, you remember last time, uh, we bought, uh, some real estate on the moon. There's, uh, there's a lot of interesting things that you can buy the internet services, products, uh, just different kinds of stuff that you can buy on the internet. we're gonna get either give advice or we're gonna buy some stuff on the internet. I'll leave it up to y'all.

Brent 42:33

have to pay for it?

George Milton 42:35

Uh, I mean, we'll pay for it out of the show's proceeds.

justin 42:39

Let's

George Milton 42:40

Our advertisers will pay for

justin 42:41

go. Let's definitely buy some weird stuff on the internet.

Brent 42:44

of this. Yeah. So let's, jump into that.

George Milton 42:47

Okay. You guys wanna buy some stuff on the internet?

justin 42:49

Yeah, buddy.

George Milton 42:50

Uh, okay, hold on. O open up the discord real quick.'cause I want y'all to look at these, uh, as well and not just hear me describe them. Oh, wait, I, I've got to update discord. Dammit. Wait a sec. Oh wait, we've got chat. This is a chat and script.

justin 43:08

Yeah, there's a chat in Descrip, huh?

Brent 43:10

that's easier.

George Milton 43:11

this, I totally didn't see that. So the first thing that we're gonna buy on the internet, uh, we're gonna guys, today, uh, we are going to rent a friend@rentafriend.com.

justin 43:23

Oh my gosh. This is amazing.

George Milton 43:26

So like a joke. and it might be, but there are people on here, there are friends. That you could rent. Uh, I'm on the, what is rent? Rent a friend section of their website all those who don't want a dating site, but a secure and reliable web portal where they can find friendly, interesting, and like-minded people to share experiences, do fun and uplifting things, or simply enjoy warm comradery and good conversation. There's rent a friend.com. So many friends. Uh, what does it cost to rent a friend? You may be asking friends start at just$10 an hour. Some, maybe more if they have a special skill or can impart expert advice, you'll benefit from now. What do you guys think would be considered a special skill that you might pay more for? On a site that's, on a site that's clearly

justin 44:20

Whittling, like wood whittling

George Milton 44:21

dating

justin 44:22

be great.

George Milton 44:23

Yeah, I will also say that$10 an hour is under the mandated,

justin 44:30

Yeah, minimum wage. This is,

George Milton 44:31

wage.

justin 44:32

I would think I would be a better friend.

Brent 44:34

if you had a special skill of that, like, you know, you're able to give sound legal advice, then maybe your pay goes from like$10 an hour to like$250 an

George Milton 44:45

Yeah, maybe as much as 4 85 an hour.

justin 44:49

Here. You know what's really funny about this is that this is actually, I just, I read something or saw an article or something about this. This is really big over in like Japan where they rent like old people. Like you can rent like a. An old person to come hang out with you and like have lunch or it's like a thing and it was like really interesting. It's like, oh, that actually makes sense. Like, yeah, you're going like

Brent 45:15

See, I could expect to like

justin 45:18

I.

Brent 45:18

accept money to go have lunch with an old person and listen to their stories where they get hung up on irrelevant details that don't move the narrative forward. I don't know why I would

George Milton 45:28

So we, I mean, what, what do you mean by irrelevant? Because irrelevant to you maybe.

Brent 45:33

Like, like this? Uh, well, me and old, uh, bill, uh, bill, uh, I believe it was, uh, Jen. Bill. Jen. No, that can't be it. Anyway, but he was a, a tall man and uh, we would go over to his house in

George Milton 45:47

Sorry. That's all I can, that's all I can listen to for free. Brian,

Brent 45:50

yeah, see

George Milton 45:51

I'm gonna need you to rent me from here on out. Uh.

Brent 45:54

Like they get hung up on those kinda details.

George Milton 45:56

People are using rent a friend.com for all kinds of activities. People are hiring platonic friends for all sorts of great activities. Below are just a few of them anyways, people are enjoying Rent, a Friend travel, virtual friends going to bar, going to

justin 46:14

Don't you like find friends at a bar that will sit there? Like if you're just looking for people to talk to at a bar, they're usually there.

George Milton 46:21

It's, I'm saying number three. On this list is going to bar guys. Click on the, Uh,

Brent 46:29

say it, it um, it's not exactly like if you were gonna rank it based on how legitimate it looks. It's not the most legit looking site I've ever seen, I gotta say.

George Milton 46:42

what other kinds of things are people using for friend for, hear you asking clubbing, skiing, workouts, parties, bowling, hanging out, playing sports. The list goes on, but you get the idea. Arcade, prom dates. Prom dates is on here. So I guess there's not a like age requirement

Brent 47:04

Ooh, wingman.

George Milton 47:06

wing Man. Oh wow. Pretty good.

Brent 47:09

Yeah.

George Milton 47:10

have read tutoring sightseeing, comedy Club, giving tours, DIY projects. Um, should we search local friends? Let's do, I am a, I'll be a straight male for the purposes of this. for, wait a second. Hold on.

George Milton 47:34

Hold on. I'm gonna go to the Find a friend. So now it's just asking me to enter my location, so I'm just gonna search Austin, Texas. Let's see. Uh, I don't wanna give too much info about these people away, but let's see who the friends are. Um, let's see. Screen name rumble always. Um, oh, this person plays d and d Is neurodivergent compassionate? Um,

justin 47:59

your profile?

George Milton 48:01

it might be, I'm trying to find if there's a, it's talked about special skills, but there does, I don't see a, um, I don't see a area for special skills.

Brent 48:18

That's probably because who you're looking at is without them.

George Milton 48:22

Oh, maybe.

Brent 48:24

Although man, there's this one guy here. What a find he would be. He is an independent artist, a

George Milton 48:30

Whoa. Shit.

Brent 48:31

a

George Milton 48:31

songwriter.

Brent 48:33

a performer, and get this an all around

George Milton 48:38

Good.

Brent 48:38

to be around.

justin 48:39

Is this Brent? Brent? Did you slip your thing in there again?

Brent 48:44

He's also got a fedora on, uh, that matches his tie, so you know, he is legit.

George Milton 48:52

Uh, that's cool. This guy, uh, has his shirt off for the rent a friend profile picture. Um, really enjoy the arts, love hanging out and doing whatever with the right company. This is a dating website, right? This is a dating website.

justin 49:10

Low key hooker website.

Brent 49:13

No,'cause like this guy that I'm referring to, he's making his pitch and saying like, uh, you know, you want to go out and meet some girls?

George Milton 49:22

Okay.

Brent 49:24

But I, I gotta say, if I was someone in the market for that, based on this guy's pictures, he's not probably the dude that I'm gonna be like, Hey, let's, let's go meet some girls together, you know? But, uh, who knows?

justin 49:41

So I just. I got a, I got a, I got a fun story about buying something off the internet. I think it fits into this segment'cause it is buying something off the internet.

George Milton 49:49

and did you rent them?

justin 49:50

I did not rent a friend, but it was almost the same thing as what we're talking about.

George Milton 49:57

Okay.

justin 49:57

long story short, I was trying to buy a, a Nintendo switch for my daughter for Christmas. Facebook marketplace. Have you ever guys bought stuff on Facebook Marketplace?

George Milton 50:05

I love Facebook

justin 50:06

Yeah, usually I've had great success on that. So I found this one communicating with the person. They're like, Hey, can you come today? I was like, yeah, totally. Here's, they're like, here's the address, blah, blah, blah. I text'em. I'm like, Hey, I'm headed your way. I'll be about 40 minutes. It's about seven. I get to the place around seven 30 at night. It's a big, uh, complex like apartment complex. I text the person and. And we, I'm like, Hey, I am here. And they text back to me like, SRQ, I have no idea what SRQ means. I, you know, I, I've looked it up. Try to be like, is this some kind of new like millennial Gen X, like weird like six, seven thing that I don't know about.

Brent 50:50

Is it.

justin 50:52

I could never get an answer. So then I was sitting there for 20 minutes and I was like, Hey, like guys, is there apartment number? Or like, I'm in the visitor park parking like thing. Like I drove like 40 minutes up to like Round Rock area. I'm sitting there waiting, waiting, waiting. I'm like, what the hell is going on? Finally it's like, dude, like what? This is not cool. Like, you don't, and then I get a response like another 10 minutes later. So I've been sitting there for like 30 minutes and it's like, Hey, I didn't tell you to come like right now tonight. I didn't give you a time. I just said tonight. I'm like, it's eight o'clock at night. Like, what time are you thinking tonight? Like the, the actual response would be like, Hey, I'm so sorry. I was got caught running late. I had something, but something came up. I'll be back in like an hour. Can you come back or something? And I was just like. Oh, this is really weird. So I just like, you know what? Forget you. I left. Wake up. The next morning I look at my text chain and the next response back from this person was, do you want me to suck your dick?

George Milton 51:51

Are you

justin 51:51

And,

George Milton 51:51

Is that

justin 51:52

no, no, no. I am a hundred percent serious. I will show you the check. I have the receipts. And I was like. How did this go from that to this? This is really, uh,

George Milton 52:03

Oh, sorry. So SRQ was, SRQ is not slang, but Nintendo switch is definitely slang

justin 52:12

yeah, I guess Nintendo Switch is like, Hey, we'll switch it up for a blowjob. So I almost bought a a, I almost bought a blowjob on the internet apparently

George Milton 52:22

Uh,

justin 52:22

for 150 bucks. So it would've been a really good one, I guess.

George Milton 52:26

yes.

Brent 52:27

don't know if that what the going like Is that a good price for a blowjob? I don't

justin 52:31

I, I have no idea.

George Milton 52:34

Are we trying uh, I don't think I want,

Brent 52:38

we are.

George Milton 52:39

I don't think we're trying to do that. Uh, who are we gonna rent? I'm gonna rent William. Uh, he is a hu an open-minded humor centric man. I love get to know people. He says so.

Brent 52:52

You know what you should do is rent him at a time that we're gonna be doing this, and then the thing that you're paying him for is to just be on the podcast and be rented, and then we can just grill him with all these questions, whatever topic we want.

George Milton 53:06

don't

justin 53:06

That would be great. Should we rent a friend for the podcast?

George Milton 53:10

Nobody's got their rates on here. Join now. Oh, I have to join. I have to join. Rent A Friend.

Brent 53:17

Oh, to see rates?

George Milton 53:18

Yeah. Brent, can we just use your login?

Brent 53:21

uh, I don't know, man.

George Milton 53:24

Okay. I am just kidding. Uh, what we're gonna do next, guys, uh, we're gonna go to another part of the internet where we are going to become Scottish lords and ladies by, uh, buying, plots of land in Scotland.

justin 53:40

Come in on this.

Brent 53:40

can buy plots of land on the moon?

George Milton 53:44

already did that. That was the bit we did last time. You could buy plots of, but yes,

Brent 53:47

So did

George Milton 53:48

we,

Brent 53:48

though?

George Milton 53:49

I know I didn't.

Brent 53:50

Okay.

George Milton 53:51

Tell me more about it. I, we have the deed to some land on the moon. It's in the lake of, uh, solitude or whatever.

Brent 53:58

I didn't forget about that. You forgot about that.

George Milton 54:02

So you could buy a plot of land. This one not as interesting as running a friend, um, but you can get a title. You can be a Laird or a Lord,

justin 54:11

Laird.

Brent 54:12

are the differences?

George Milton 54:13

I am not sure a Laird is a term for a landowner. But I think that's also what a Lord is. Um,

Brent 54:24

So it's just

George Milton 54:24

but

Brent 54:25

you like, the sound of better, I guess I'm gonna go

George Milton 54:27

I'd

Brent 54:27

then.

George Milton 54:28

to be a layered. love to be a layered.

justin 54:32

This is some expensive, uh, square footage. They must be desperate in, uh, Scotland because they're like, we'll give you a title for 10 square feet.

George Milton 54:41

Yeah, they'll give, almost anybody can be a Laird in Scotland and I think I'd like to be, me and my friend William, uh, who I'm renting for$48 an hour off the internet. Uh, guys let, we gotta give, we gotta give a couple of people advice too. Um, we bought some stuff. Uh, I think that my wife thinks I murdered her ex. So we do get ages on these people. The guy who posted it is 25 M wife, 23 F, so mid twenties people. Guys, this is right in our sweet spot. Um, about a month ago while out shopping, my wife and I ran into her high school boyfriend and his mom on the street. It was a slightly awkward encounter. His mom made a comment about how good they look standing next to each other. Like it was meant to be. We said we were in a bit of a hurry and as we were walking away, he said something along the lines of, Hey, we should grab coffee sometime. think too much of it at the moment. Sure, his mom was awkward, but they'd been broken up for about seven years and I do think he meant it just to be friendly, still, we had a quick check in after where we both agreed it was awkward and that I wasn't too upset and that I wouldn't even necessarily mind the meeting for coffee provided that it became that if it became clear he still had feelings. was making advances, she cut him out. She wasn't even sure she wanted to take him up on it. So it was purely hypothetical evening. I met up with some friends for drinks and was home at 1:00 AM the next morning. My wife got a message from her friend that her ex died that night. We got a few more details over the next couple of days, but it seemed like he suffered from epilepsy and that night. And a freak accident. Had a seizure fell and hit fatally hit his head. as I know, there's no foul play suspected or criminal investigation or anything like that in the weeks since she started acting. Really strange. She hasn't been. I'm normally sad that he died, but more like cautious and fearful around me. She hasn't made any kind of direct accusation, but has. Asking me a lot of questions about where I went, drinking with my friends, who I was with, what time each person arrived and left, et cetera. She's lately mentioned that she wanted to spend some time with a friend to catch up for about a week. I don't know how to address this. It feels crazy to have to ask her whether she thinks I murdered him or to have to tell her that I didn't. I'm afraid to even bring it up and whether that would just feed into whatever she seems to be going through. Any thoughts on how to deal with this? Yes. For the record, I did not murder her ex.

justin 57:13

It seems like a death protest a little too much.

George Milton 57:18

Yeah, right. So did he murder her ex? Let's assume.

Brent 57:22

wife listens to a lot of crime podcasts and

George Milton 57:26

Yeah,

Brent 57:27

how I can tell you definitively. That they did it

George Milton 57:31

did it. Well, that's. A lot of, a lot of people's wives and girlfriends listen to the crime podcasts. That's who they're for,

Brent 57:41

well then there you go. That's, that's proof.

George Milton 57:43

but that's for sure why she thinks that he did it'cause she's been listening to those podcasts.

Brent 57:49

Yeah. But

George Milton 57:50

Um,

Brent 57:51

he probably did it.

justin 57:54

That's just a strange thing to post on the internet in general, like

George Milton 57:59

Well, there's a strange people posting on the internet, man. Here's what I would say. I would say that like as long as if you've got a pretty, like, if you've got like a real and airtight alibi, maybe you should just milk this for a little bit. Do you know what I mean? Like maybe just maybe just spend some extra time sharpening a kitchen knife. know, just like, just, just kind of milk it a little bit. Um, do that.

Brent 58:40

So what, what exactly is the advice being asked for

George Milton 58:46

He said Any thought? He just says, any thoughts on how to deal with this?

Brent 58:50

okay.

George Milton 58:51

he deal with, how should he come? He's, he's saying like, should I, should I be like, Hey, I know you haven't said this, but it kind of feels like you think that I might have killed your ex and I didn't. why am I bringing it up? Uh, isn't that suspicious? Oh, uh, I think that's the question is like, he, he is sitting here thinking that she's kind of acting like she thinks that. He killed her ex-boyfriend because they had this interaction,

Brent 59:21

Let's

George Milton 59:22

she,

Brent 59:22

assume Go, go ahead. Sorry.

George Milton 59:24

well, she didn't, but she didn't say like, he, he's, he doesn't say, she said I killed her ex. She's just kinda giving him the side eye and asking him a bunch of questions.

Brent 59:33

Right, but let's presuppose for a minute that he, that he did do it. Okay. Like,

George Milton 59:39

Okay.

Brent 59:39

he's just getting on and asking this question because he's hoping to spark some ideas on how to seem more innocent and less suspicious.

justin 59:50

He doesn't want to be like, oh, I did it, but he did it. We all know it. Stop lying.

George Milton 59:55

that's another read of it, is to say, Hey guys, how do I seem like I didn't,

Brent 1:00:00

Right. How

George Milton 1:00:02

how should I

Brent 1:00:03

suspicions?

George Milton 1:00:04

of that? I murdered somebody. I mean, he does say here that he didn't murder the guy.

justin 1:00:10

I mean that's, I mean, I guess I, yeah, I guess if you said you didn't murder him, you didn't do it.

Brent 1:00:17

I mean, I'm just thinking that may like, because what if he did it and then what if, like, as he said, if the cops aren't suspicious and she's the only person that is, and he, and he knows in his head like, okay, I don't, obviously don't want to kill her being the only suspicious one.'cause that'll make more people suspicious. So I just want a way to. Just calmly and naturally disarm her suspicions so that nobody is onto me.

justin 1:00:46

Hmm.

George Milton 1:00:48

Yeah.

Brent 1:00:48

Could

George Milton 1:00:49

Uh, that's good. I mean, this is great cover to go on Reddit and

justin 1:00:54

This seems like the impossible crime. This is the impossible crime.

George Milton 1:01:00

I definitely didn't murder this guy. This guy didn't do it, and we were all like, Hey, we didn't even know you. We weren't asking you.

Brent 1:01:10

Yeah, well, you know what, um, I am gonna say that because I am so certain that this guy did it.

George Milton 1:01:17

Oh.

Brent 1:01:17

I'm gonna use one of my shiny veto cards to not allow anybody to give him advice. I veto responses to this, to this guy's problem. Fuck his problems. He

George Milton 1:01:27

Okay, hold on.

Brent 1:01:28

own them.

George Milton 1:01:29

Uh, let me just make sure. Okay. I've hacked into the backend and the comment section is now closed.

Brent 1:01:36

Good. Alright.

George Milton 1:01:37

I got use of the veto card. Uh.

Brent 1:01:42

I've dubbed him guilty and veto any advice that might help him get away with this heinous crime.

George Milton 1:01:49

This next one? Not, uh, not necessarily, uh, not necessarily a huge advice request, but I am gonna read it, read it to you anyway. I fucked up by forgetting I was on an Amazon family plan four years. So I just got an email notification stating that I was removed from my Amazon family plan. I completely forgot that years ago, my sister and brother-in-law added me to their account as a teen so I could mooch free Amazon Prime from them. Upon seeing this, I started getting a panic attack because I have made many spicy purchases on there. Things I. they don't want to know about their little sister. I quickly Googled to see if there's any chance they've been privy to those purchases and they're plain as day it reads, yes, if you are a teen on an Amazon household account, your parents will be notified about your purchase because they need to approve them. My brethren in Christ, my sister has been approving every single purchase made. For years, the mundane ones, the questionable ones, the impulse ones, the downright horny ones, everything, and she's never said one word about this whole time. My last purchase made was two days before getting notified via this email, and yes, it was a horny purchase. I'm afraid that she finally got fed up with knowing this many intimate details about my life and finally decided to end it. But maybe it's just a coincidence. I'm too afraid to ask. Honestly, I'm not sure. I want to know what should I do?

Brent 1:03:21

This one's easy as far as what you should do, I think, right.

George Milton 1:03:25

Y

justin 1:03:27

I think so.

George Milton 1:03:28

Yeah. You should, um, mail all of those things to your sister and brother-in-law.

Brent 1:03:36

I mean, to me the obvious answer there, like there are some conversations that it just really doesn't do any good to bring that up. If she had that realization. Yeah, that's probably pretty embarrassing, but like girl, you just need to. Not bring that, switch it over to your own account and just never speak of these things again. Yeah. She probably knows some weird shit about you now, but you know what? She doesn't wanna bring it up. You don't wanna bring it up. Nobody needs to bring it up. It doesn't really, yeah. It's just, it's just weird and it's gonna be, let it go. Move on.

George Milton 1:04:08

Question is that like it says that she was doing this for years and like her sister's never said anything. Her,

justin 1:04:17

It's pretty funny.

George Milton 1:04:18

it sounds like her sister had to actively approve these

Brent 1:04:22

Probably, but

George Milton 1:04:22

purchases.

Brent 1:04:23

might've been in that situation where she's like. Well, I can't, if I, if I deny this, then she's gonna know that I did it. I don't wanna have a talk with her. Maybe I'll just approve this and she won't even know that I'm approving it. And it sounds like that was the case for a long time until she did know. So maybe it was just one of those things that nobody really wanted to talk about. It was easier for her sister to just kind of bite her bottom

George Milton 1:04:45

Yeah, your sister, your sister has clearly flagged to you that she does not want to talk about this, but

justin 1:04:53

Yeah, her sister does not wanna know about your vibrators and your KY jelly'cause that's clearly what you're buying.

Brent 1:04:58

That's obviously what was being purchased.

George Milton 1:05:00

When I was, when I was reading this, I do not want this in my Amazon history, but I was, I mean, I used Amazon for like asinine household things. For the most part, it had not occurred to me that I'm sure you can buy horny things on Amazon. I guess it, I mean, it makes sense. It's the internet and Amazon is just kind of the wild west, but I guess that's the assumption is that those are the sorts of horny purchase. I mean, you could, I guess, also buy horny literature. You could buy like romance novels on Kendall or

justin 1:05:33

What is it, manga or maga? Manga, like the tentacle porn.

Brent 1:05:38

that's for dudes. I think, uh, the, the romance literature is the ladies version of that.

George Milton 1:05:43

Yeah. Well, not all manga is, uh, is tentacle porn.

Brent 1:05:48

No, I'm just under the

justin 1:05:49

Only the good stuff.

Brent 1:05:50

majority of it is consumed by, uh, guys with neck beards.

George Milton 1:05:56

A good neck beard? Uh, yeah, I mean, I think that the, I think that the, um, I think maybe the best thing to do would be send your sister an email and be like, Hey, what the fuck? Uh, I still need to order a few things and then send her links to some various products. Um, I, I mean, if it was, if this was like me and my brother and I realized something like that, I would be really embarrassed for like, uh, like a while. Like I'd be embarrassed for at least two weeks, you know, on and

justin 1:06:37

What, what about just buying a bunch of the, the horny stuff that you bought and send it directly to your sister and see if she says anything?

George Milton 1:06:44

that's what I like. If it was me and my brother and it was something like that, I would like, the next thing that I would do would be some this would be some like comical thing to be like, I know that, you know, and now I,

justin 1:06:59

I know.

George Milton 1:06:59

now you know that I know that, you know, and it would just be like a it, like I would probably like. It. Steven Segal shows up and he is like, I know that you know that,

justin 1:07:13

Now that you, that you been taking my money.

George Milton 1:07:16

you would've taken my Amazon, you've been approving my purchases this whole time. Uh, yeah. I think you should, uh, I think you should comedically disarm it. Um, that's it guys. We gave advice to people. The, those are

justin 1:07:33

I love it.

George Milton 1:07:34

we

justin 1:07:34

I love advice. We're so smart.

Brent 1:07:36

Sure

justin 1:07:37

We're

Brent 1:07:37

So.

justin 1:07:38

so caring. I.

Brent 1:07:38

Um, just so you guys know, uh, I'm, I'm, it's taking me some time to work it up, but I've got this bit that we'll do where, uh, you know, a segment where I'm gonna show you three different pictures of various, uh, let's just call them composites and you've gotta be able to pick out which one is not diarrhea.

George Milton 1:08:01

Wait. Various composites.

justin 1:08:05

Speedo my card right now.

George Milton 1:08:07

Yeah. Yeah. He is. He's veto baiting. Are you veto baiting us?

Brent 1:08:12

I've put a, of work into this.

George Milton 1:08:15

Yeah. Well, Justin vetoed it, but you know what? Because he put so much work into it, I'm gonna veto his veto. So let's have it, man. Let's

justin 1:08:24

Who does number two work for?

George Milton 1:08:26

Let's see these composites. Uh, until next time guys, we did it. We did it. Uh, we vaguely remembered how to do this podcast. I think it was great. Probably our best episode yet

justin 1:08:38

Definitely.

George Milton 1:08:39

say,

justin 1:08:40

We should go out on top.

George Milton 1:08:41

uh, Merry Christmas. Happy New Year. Uh, follow Vita, the podcast. You guys should like it. Give it five stars. Just give, really fuck with the algorithm. Um, I've been so happy to see you guys. I miss you. Love you.

justin 1:09:00

Love you long time.

Brent 1:09:01

Brent Bobbit, and this is George Milton and Justin Jeffers.

George Milton 1:09:06

And that'll take us out. everybody.
