The Corduroy Boys Podcast

Performing Comedy for Curtis Sliwa

Jack Episode 3

Send us a text

Throw on that corduroy and cozy with us!

This week on The Corduroy Boys Podcast, the boys spiral through some of their best chaos yet. Brendan opens with an aggressive honk he absolutely did not mean to deliver, leading to an existential debate about soft honks, hard honks, and whether every car should bring back the AOOGA.

Then we break down Irish goodbyes at weddings, family parties, and anywhere you might want to disappear without the emotional paperwork. Jack tells the story of chauffeuring Brendan to a wedding (and somehow making money on the deal), and Andrew goes deep on his recent trip to the library’s glass “fart pod.”

From nipple-destroying shirts to wrestling childhoods, John Cena encounters, and a shockingly personal Curtis Sliwa fundraiser gig, this episode does not come up for air.

If you like unhinged banter, oddly sincere etiquette debates, and three men who absolutely should not be allowed to discuss fart physics publicly, this one’s for you.

THE PODCAST

SPEAKER_06:

Where just the corner boys.

SPEAKER_03:

Can I get uh there's a there's a sound check. This is about as loud as I'm gonna talk and it's doing pretty good. Andrew, can I get a uh a touch from you?

SPEAKER_05:

As loud as I would talk?

SPEAKER_03:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05:

And then as low as I would talk.

SPEAKER_03:

Alright, loud again? Loud as I would talk. And uh, Brendan? Here's the thing about clocks. I love clocks. I gotta bring that way down. I gotta bring that way down. Go ahead, go ahead. Here's the thing about clocks. Oh, and now go soft? I love clocks. That looks so good. They tell time? That Brendan, that looks so good. The hat? No, the audio level. The hat's fine. I've complimented you on that hat before. The corduroy. The corduroy, yeah. Is it the gray pants? To bring up the corduroy in the head.

SPEAKER_06:

Is it the blue shoe? Is it the fuzzy sock?

SPEAKER_03:

What is it? You tried to make up from last week when we didn't mention your corduroy hat.

SPEAKER_06:

Well, you haven't mentioned my corduroy hat in uh it seems like decades. This outfit is very good.

SPEAKER_05:

Yeah, golden green.

SPEAKER_03:

Big fan of golden green.

SPEAKER_05:

Yeah, the golden green and the white tee with the white hat with the golden green. It works. Alright. Guys don't need to do much to like look good.

SPEAKER_06:

I don't know. Now it feels like a little too much with the compliments.

SPEAKER_05:

No, and now I'm going into a whole other thing about how guys don't have to do much to look good.

SPEAKER_06:

Some people do.

SPEAKER_05:

Some people do.

SPEAKER_06:

If I crawl out of bed, I look like a monster.

SPEAKER_05:

But I feel like if you have like a matching shoes and a matching hat, you're good. If you have two things that are matching as a guy, it's like he's pretty well dressed.

SPEAKER_06:

Because the bar is so low. Yeah. Because guys walk around looking like they've given up.

SPEAKER_03:

Yeah, I definitely feel like I've given up. There's such a charm to that though. You know, like wouldn't you love to just be like an Adam Sandler walking around?

SPEAKER_06:

If I'm Adam Sandler, but if I'm like just me that looks like I've given up, it's not as charming when you know it's when it's like a rich guy that's like I'm just comfortable.

SPEAKER_03:

If you're turning out, you know, billion dollar movies every two years, I think you can dress however you want. That's different. But I'm not, so I have to wear a nice cable knit sweater. Exactly.

SPEAKER_06:

Like if you work at Pathmark and you can't even put on a jean. Right. I I I don't have time for you in my life. I'm sorry.

SPEAKER_03:

Yeah, like if you're wearing, you know, like cargo pants at the cargo pant. You know, you're probably selling the shopping carts on the side.

SPEAKER_06:

If you are unmatched all the way, I a couple of things. Um we're guys. There's time, but like, because there's a there's there's another way uh you can go too too heavily matched. That yeah. Whereas that's a bad look. You have to you have to sort of delicately place a matching item here and there.

SPEAKER_03:

Yeah, like if you went green shoes too, no. A little too much. Yeah, that would be a little bit too much.

SPEAKER_05:

I think the you got it just right because there's a nonchalance to it.

SPEAKER_03:

Yeah, it's like, oh, I threw an oh geez, it actually. Yeah, it should be an accidental match.

SPEAKER_06:

An accidental match is what we're looking for.

SPEAKER_05:

And you look exactly like that, and I think it might be an accidental match.

SPEAKER_06:

There's nothing accidental about this.

SPEAKER_03:

It's the yeah, because you also have the green watch on. Let's not forget that. The green face watch.

SPEAKER_06:

Alright, but the green face watch is a little hint that only somebody like you with an eye can notice that. Not everybody notices a little green on my watch.

SPEAKER_03:

And you know why I notice that watch every time you put it on? Because you like this watch. Because I know it doesn't have a battery in it. It doesn't have a battery.

SPEAKER_06:

It's it does it's it's said what time is it for you right now? Oh, it's it's 2.25. It's been 2.25 for months. You're on Samoa time. Yeah, man. Samoa time. That's all the time you need. Yeah. Yeah, I like the Girl Scouts. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03:

You just love Dwayne Johnson movies so much.

SPEAKER_06:

Yeah, I'm a big fan.

SPEAKER_03:

I'm actually not. Of Dwayne Johnson?

SPEAKER_05:

The Rock?

SPEAKER_03:

Don't like The Rock. Really? I feel like he's like, you know, he was like the first John Cena. I wasn't a wrestling fan growing up. No way.

SPEAKER_06:

Uh you look not at all?

SPEAKER_03:

Not at all.

SPEAKER_06:

You look at me and you say wrestling fan.

SPEAKER_03:

I uh then I'm giving off the wrong vibe. As a kid, like before 12 years old? No, it actually frightened me. And I stopped at 10.

SPEAKER_05:

I met John Cena twice, wearing a padlock from Ace and a chain from Ace that I had custom cut. Is that a true story? It weighed about seven pounds. Is that a true story? Yeah. I met him at like a gaming place. Like I like there were these events where John Cena would come and he would just like sit and sign things.

SPEAKER_03:

Would you go to the Mats Pico Mall?

SPEAKER_05:

I probably did for one of them. John Cena went to the Matt's Pico Mall. Yeah. Yeah. Jack and I crossed paths early on, meeting John Cena. I met so many people there.

SPEAKER_06:

No, I would never that's not my thing. I never I had a sleepover once, and there was a guy that showed up, and he's and him and his brother have slept over, and then we gotta watch uh Jake the Snake, and I'm and I never watched wrestling. I was like, I'll watch it, and it literally terrified me inside because I thought it was real, and it like it shook me. It shook me to my core. If you don't watch wrestling, you never get hair on your chest. Yeah, I guess that's why. I never got hair on my chest.

SPEAKER_05:

Few strands.

SPEAKER_03:

I have hair on my chest. I have hair on my chest. Yeah, we're not, we're not, we're not a couple seals on a couch.

SPEAKER_05:

Yeah. Unlike you, we can't slide down a slip and slide over water.

SPEAKER_03:

There's so much friction for us. We always stop halfway on a slip and slide.

SPEAKER_06:

Yeah. I've never sloped, I've never stopped. A lot of times I go right into a bush.

SPEAKER_05:

This shirt causes Jack immense pain to his nipples.

SPEAKER_03:

Do you know how much entanglement between the fibers and my chest hair? It's unbelievable. It's like when I take it off, it's like Velcro.

SPEAKER_05:

He invented Velcro.

SPEAKER_03:

Yeah, they mocked it.

SPEAKER_05:

Again, and then he found out that Velcro was already invented.

SPEAKER_03:

Yeah, yeah. And I worked with so many people and they didn't even know about Velcro. I had to bring it up to them after two years of developing this product.

SPEAKER_06:

Do you guys have back hair though?

SPEAKER_03:

I have shoulder hair.

SPEAKER_05:

I have like a weird shoulder hair? I have like a weird pattern of back hair where it's like. I'll show you. Yeah. One day.

SPEAKER_03:

Do you want to know something very funny? What? Is I have my chest hair looks like a heart. Oh my god. A broken heart. And uh literally two days ago, my girlfriend was like, Are you gonna bring up your Care Bear chest on the podcast? That's hilarious.

SPEAKER_05:

That's so cute. She must love that.

SPEAKER_03:

She does. That is very cute. And you say, I got this from watching John Cena. Yeah. She doesn't know I shave it into a heart for her.

SPEAKER_06:

Nah, I'm a SEAL, bro.

SPEAKER_05:

That's pretty cool though.

SPEAKER_03:

Not a navy SEAL. Um, we knew that. Yeah, listen to Brendan, Brendan, Brendan. That was really mean, and I'm sorry. You could be a navy seal.

SPEAKER_06:

No, everything everything that you guys do to me is a little bit mean, and that's okay. That's what this podcast is. No, no, no. You guys come off as real nice guys. But once again, you put me in the corner with the cardboard cut out, whatever this thing is behind me. We don't know. I don't have comfy seating. Um you guys go out without me, right? A few times. And not only that, you make sure to tell me that you went out without me. So I'm okay being the punching bag of this podcast. That's who I am.

SPEAKER_05:

I hope that over time that we can prove you're wrong. Yeah. Because it's not our intention. Our intention is to be respectful, responsible, and caring. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03:

And as the as the creatives of this podcast.

SPEAKER_07:

Um he just did.

SPEAKER_06:

What? He didn't do anything. He said, You guys are the creatives. I'm wearing glasses. So am I. I look like I work in a coffee shop.

SPEAKER_03:

Coffee shop Brendan. Coffee house Brendan. Coffee house Brendan. Coffee house Brendan, I'm sorry.

SPEAKER_06:

Yes.

SPEAKER_03:

Well.

SPEAKER_06:

Just because I'm trying to fit in with you guys.

SPEAKER_03:

Do you even know what goes into a coffee?

SPEAKER_06:

Yeah, I smelt it over there.

SPEAKER_03:

Yeah, but that wasn't coffee, was it? Coffee beans.

SPEAKER_06:

You grind the beans just like you.

SPEAKER_05:

To get ourselves amped up for the pod, we like to smell coffee beans that I got during the week.

SPEAKER_03:

We're so like uh we're not Rogan. We we don't have the smelling salts. Yeah, we can't afford them yet.

SPEAKER_05:

We have to dual, like, it has to be something that's usable. Like I have to get coffee in order for us to smell the coffee.

SPEAKER_03:

Dual purpose uh smelling uh smelling stuff.

SPEAKER_06:

Can I say while smelling salts are we're talking about them quick? If you guys ever pull out a smelling salt thing on me and make me smell smelling salt, I won't come back to the podcast for two weeks.

SPEAKER_03:

It's a good thing we have like a backlog. I'll come back to the show. Yeah, we should do it.

SPEAKER_05:

We should do like when's the next time you're going on vacation.

unknown:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03:

Well, weren't we gonna get Ryan in for a few a few hours? What the heck is that supposed to mean? Weren't we gonna well we were we on our last uh solo uh meetup sesh, um we uh we said Where do you guys meet up?

SPEAKER_06:

Here you come all the way out here.

SPEAKER_03:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06:

So you pass my apartment.

SPEAKER_03:

Not really.

SPEAKER_06:

You're so you consciously pass by me. Don't even think about me.

SPEAKER_03:

I wouldn't say I drive to see Andrew. I wouldn't say I don't think about you because I consciously know that uh you're not coming.

SPEAKER_06:

Because that was a decision that you don't even think about me at all. But why am I not even included in a text?

SPEAKER_03:

See, we just you have a history of you know, I can't tonight.

SPEAKER_05:

Well, here's something that you're missing out on. When Jack and I hang out, there's a lot of silence.

SPEAKER_03:

Lot of silence. Lot of silence. It's not like this, it's not like the rapid fire rhythm that we No, we do a lot of thinking.

SPEAKER_05:

We'll be someone will say something, and sometimes it'll go like five to ten minutes before the other one says something. Yeah.

SPEAKER_06:

Me and Jack get together and think sometimes. No. I think I think to you.

SPEAKER_03:

And I give you material to use. You go, I go, I have this new idea, and you go, Oh, yeah, sounds good, whatever you want to do. And I say, Okay, I'm ready to make it gold, baby. And then I try to bring up ideas, and you go, I I I I don't think that way. Have I ever said that?

SPEAKER_05:

Yes, you have. I just don't think like that. Yeah, I just I don't know. You say that a lot. You go, like, I couldn't do that. Yeah.

SPEAKER_06:

Well, there's there's I have a certain way of of uh of writing, of performing, and it's different than what you guys do. It's it works, it's just kind of off the cuff. Uh-huh. Is that what you do? No, it's not off the cuff. You know I have an act.

SPEAKER_05:

Yeah, but like, how did you develop it?

SPEAKER_06:

By writing it. By experiencing things, by not sitting in a room uninviting friends, sitting in silence. I lived my life. That's what I did. While you guys were sitting in a room, I was going out, alright? And I was making memories. And then those memories, I jot them down, and then they become stories, and then those stories become jokes.

SPEAKER_03:

That's what I do too. And you're just the only one that writes here.

SPEAKER_05:

Yeah, we actually have very few memories.

SPEAKER_06:

Yeah, I know.

SPEAKER_05:

Yeah, no, you're right, and that's why we need you. Because you're the memory keeper.

SPEAKER_06:

Okay, but can we look at this podcast as this podcast? It's it's like a band. Okay? You know what a band is?

SPEAKER_03:

Yeah, like you two. Not a band like you two. I'm talking like a Beatles. Oh, like um like a high school. Like one of those like elastic ones I use the strength.

SPEAKER_06:

No, no, no. A band. I'm talking about big brass. We have our wind instruments.

SPEAKER_03:

An orchestra.

SPEAKER_06:

We have the orchestra. Everybody in this podcast plays a little instrument, alright? Maybe I don't play the same instrument as you guys. You seem like a triangle kind of guy. But my instrument is louder.

SPEAKER_05:

You have a special instrument. Yeah. And we love it. I d you do love it. And we need you.

SPEAKER_06:

But sometimes you don't invite me over to for practice.

SPEAKER_05:

Okay, well we'll invite you over for practice. I make it. Yeah, that's the thing. You're complaining about all of this, yet you're working like an idiot.

SPEAKER_06:

I'm not working all the time. Yeah, you are. Some people have to uh pay bills.

SPEAKER_03:

What do you want from me? Brennan, you're the bass. You're the bass of the band. Because you you do lay down the groove. You're the espresso, we're the milk. I like that.

SPEAKER_05:

He doesn't really know coffee, though. Um I like my coffee black. And I like to smell it. You're the you're the Guinness, and we're the head of the Guinness.

SPEAKER_03:

Okay. Fair enough. Like if we're not here enough, people aren't gonna want us.

SPEAKER_06:

Yeah, we make it look good, but you're the real draw. Again, what you're doing now is you're taking, you're like, you're you're reversing what I said where where like I know how you guys are like you you guys sort of pawn me off, push, push Brendan in the corner, and what you guys do is then you pretend to lift me up, but in reality is you're pushing me down. And I can tell. And that's okay. I'm okay with it. You feel pushed down? Yes. How far? Do you think we could lift you back up? Um No, it's fine. I'm I'm happy at level at the level I am. I'm happy where I am.

SPEAKER_03:

You're like, I feel like you're like what you feel is like you're in the beach and you know, only your head is up from the sand. That's what I that's what I'm hearing from. Yeah, I'm still breathing though. Is that accurate?

SPEAKER_05:

But what we feel is you're like a phoenix and you're rising from the ashes. The way you say that is baloney.

SPEAKER_06:

And I I know it is, but that's okay. That's okay. I'm gonna continue to be me. Why do you think that's like this tired troubled earth I've been rolling since my birth?

SPEAKER_05:

Me and Jack have been talking about how you are a phoenix rising from the ashes so constantly.

SPEAKER_06:

Nobody has ever described me as a phoenix rising from the ashes.

SPEAKER_03:

I mean, not in those words, but we did say phoenix. Yeah. We said phoenix.

SPEAKER_05:

There's a phoenix diner in the case.

SPEAKER_06:

Yeah, but it looks like he's uh gone to Phoenix to retire. That's what I am. I'm an old dog.

SPEAKER_03:

Yeah, I believe we said Phoenix Sons. Like you're a Phoenix son. You know, in the way that Marley. In the way that you drift.

SPEAKER_06:

Thunder Dan Marley. Do you even know him? While you guys were watching uh wrestling, I was watching Thunder Dan Marley, number nine. Do you even know who the man is? He was the ninth best at what? He played for the Phoenix Suns.

SPEAKER_03:

And could he even podcast? Could he might podcast? Who knows?

SPEAKER_05:

Yeah, because we're shooting constant threes out here. Yeah, sure. We are. We are. I heard you got into a predicament this week.

SPEAKER_06:

Okay, so I want to get your take on this. I apologized for a honk. Really? I'm at a red light today. I'm driving a different truck. Lady didn't go on the red light, right? I meant to give a little love tap of a honk. Yeah. As you do, letting the person know. Oh yeah. Just go. This horn did a big Your hand was not calibrated to the wheel. Yeah. Exactly. My hand wasn't calibrated to the wheel. So I when I did that, it literally was a honk. And one thing I noticed as I did that, there was a handicapped sticker hanging from her rear view mirror. Oh man. No, there wasn't. It was one of those little signs, right? Yeah.

SPEAKER_03:

Which those signs should there should be a differentiate, you know, the one should be a wheelchair, then she had another one with a helmet. Yeah. As a sign. So we know what what kind. One with swimming. Yeah, you gotta know what kind you're dealing with. Yeah. By the way, which would have been helpful because so I pulled. It should be one with, you know, over-the-ear headphones on it.

SPEAKER_06:

I would need that one. Um, so I pull in, and you know, I honked at this person. I always feel bad honking. I'm not like I try not to be aggressive. Um and she didn't do the wave like, oh, I'm sorry. She just didn't, she just she I think I frazzled her and she started going. And of course I'm following her now. She makes a left, I make a left. She makes a right, I make a right. We both end up in the same parking lot. Alright? Sort of my nightmare situation. Yeah, no. Because I just gave an aggressive honk at this disabled woman. Right. I would have hidden the car, but you had meat to deliver. Right. I I couldn't, and I'm driving. It was just one of those situations where I'm like, alright, I I I went out and I decided to just go right away and apologize. I was like, I hey, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to, I didn't mean to honk like that. I was just letting you know that I'm and the more I start explaining to myself, the more of an I'm maybe it looks like I need the disabled sticker. You know what I mean? Yeah. And she the woman is, I don't know, maybe she I think she forgot about the honk, or maybe she didn't even hear it. She probably didn't know it was you still because she was so conf I think I confused her more with me trying to overcompensate what you guys do a lot with uh with with with the aggressive honk. So what my question is for you guys you're in that situation to do an aggressive honk, you end up in the same parking lot. Do you just let her you kind of hide out in your car and let her walk away? Or do you go and apologize for being an aggressive honker?

SPEAKER_05:

I would give her a big smile. I go.

SPEAKER_06:

Yeah, as to say screw you lady, I meant it.

SPEAKER_05:

No, as to say, like, I'm a nice person. I didn't mean to do anything. You know, you know what I would do.

SPEAKER_03:

Well, you want to go ahead, go ahead.

SPEAKER_06:

Yeah, we were we interrupted him.

SPEAKER_05:

Thank you guys. Um I'd give her a smile, and if she was if she gave me a face, I would apologize. But if she gives me nothing, I'd be like, okay, move on with my day. But I am very sensitive to the hard honk. Not personally. Because personally, I think we discussed this that like now I'm gonna go slow if you give me a hard honk. I'm gonna wait until the light turns green to turn if you give me a hard honk.

SPEAKER_06:

Now, what if the person behind gave like a little hand wave? Like, I'm sorry, I didn't mean that.

SPEAKER_05:

There's no sensitive hard honk. Yeah, I know. There should be two horns, like the way that like some toilets have like a pea flush and a poop flush. Yeah. Yeah. There should be like a soft honk and a hard honk.

SPEAKER_06:

100%. Yeah. A honk to let you know.

SPEAKER_05:

And there should be a honk honk.

SPEAKER_06:

And there should be a honk to be like for You gotta move, lady.

SPEAKER_03:

And the where where'd the Auga go? Yeah. There needs to be a cat call. Yeah, whatever happened to that sound. Yeah. Yeah, we I really missed that. I mean, I'm hoping that like, you know, Toyota's putting out all these like retro vehicles now. Hopefully, we get like an old like Model T kind of horn. That would be pretty sweet. What were you gonna say? I was gonna say that if I was in the situation, what I would do is I would create a moment in the parking lot where I could give her the right of way.

SPEAKER_06:

Oh, so you yeah, you almost pay it forward.

SPEAKER_03:

I'd circle around. I'd do a little Tim Robinson in the parking lot of the I do, I'm doing something. Yeah, yeah. And I go around and then I'm that's actually not a bad move.

SPEAKER_05:

Yeah, no, you know what you could do is m choose a spot that she's about to go into and then be like, oh, sorry.

SPEAKER_03:

That's that was the exact situation in my head. Yeah, I think that's beautiful.

SPEAKER_06:

I think that's so much better than what you said, Andrew. The smile to me seems a little bit like that's right, I beeped at you. What are you gonna do about it?

SPEAKER_05:

But it's me, but it's my smile. Your smile can be condescending.

SPEAKER_06:

It's a kind smile, but it also I've seen you smile at me where I'm like, he's smiling at me in a way that it's it's not kind. You know what I'm saying? But that's only you.

SPEAKER_03:

I think I do that to people accidentally. Maybe Andrew does it on purpose, I don't know.

SPEAKER_05:

I do both, but I I hope it gets interpreted as nice. There was a woman that I made a lot of eye contact with because she like cut in front of me, and then we ended up being at a light, and I kept looking at her. Again, why? I didn't smile. I I kept looking at her and shaking my head.

SPEAKER_06:

Oh, oh, in in like disapproval. Yeah, no, I I I go like this a lot.

SPEAKER_05:

Yeah, I'll make eye contact and I go.

SPEAKER_06:

The shaking of the head is a must. I'll do the finger, I'll wag the finger.

SPEAKER_05:

Oh, I've never wagged a finger. I've never wagged a finger.

SPEAKER_03:

That's just people take it serious. No, but I know it's because I'm listening to old jazz in my car. I wave my finger. That makes a lot more sense with the soundtrack. Oh, God. You blast the music and I just wave my finger. Aooga. Yeah.

SPEAKER_05:

And then like, oh, he's just groovy.

SPEAKER_03:

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I always have, and then I always, you know, turn it up in case they think I'm like rude, and then I turn up the music so they can hear. That's good. Yeah. I got another one for you guys.

SPEAKER_06:

I'm at a wedding last week. Right. I'm at a wedding last week.

SPEAKER_03:

Thank you for the$70, by the way.

SPEAKER_06:

Again, are you even a friend? You have to wonder. You have to wonder. Now, I I I maybe overpaid you. You did because I told you to not give me that much. Alright, so let's let them know what we're talking about. So I had a wedding last Sunday.

SPEAKER_03:

And just to preface, you saved money on this deal. I did save money on this deal. You saved You saved probably$70 on this deal.$100.

SPEAKER_06:

So I had a wedding Sunday. It was now this episode's not coming out for a little while, but it was the night the night of the Nor'easter. Alright. So normally I'm fine. I I would take an Uber to a place. I I I take Ubers all the time. But it was a rainy Sunday and it was a bit of a drive. And Jack happens to live not far from the wedding venue. So I took a shot in the dark, asked my buddy Jack, hey, what are you doing today? Turns out Jack was shooting a sketch not far from me. He finished at the perfect time, was able to scoop me up and bring me right to the to the wedding. I told him I'd I'd pay him. I paid him 70 bucks.

unknown:

Right.

SPEAKER_06:

Total for the whole No no, I paid him 50 bucks on the first on the first try.

SPEAKER_05:

50 bucks for the first shot. How many miles?

SPEAKER_03:

I don't know, but it was it was like it was about it was about th 30 miles.

SPEAKER_06:

Okay. And it was it was a probably a s it was a s about a 70 dollar Uber ride at that time because of the rain, uh, because of the length. What what are we talking about? A half hour, 40 minutes? It was about 40 minutes. Okay. But people understand time, not miles.

SPEAKER_03:

It depends. I understand time. In the city, they understand time. Out here, we understand miles.

SPEAKER_06:

Alright, but the people that we uh are recording to, these are city folk, alright?

SPEAKER_03:

Are they? I think so. I hope so. I'd love to get it in with the city folk. Yeah.

SPEAKER_06:

I have a lot of tote bags. So anyway, I go to this wedding. Jack, I'm I'm searching for an Uber to get home, and Jack, my guardian angel, on my shoulder, texts me right at that same time. Are you looking for a ride home? And it's probably not because he wants to help a palate. Because Jack is looking for a little more scratch. Yeah. Right? He's trying to make it out here. So he did, he did say, you know, only pay me 20 bucks. So that was very kind. So I I got away with a$70 bill. But I I will say well worth it. But you ever want to overpay$70.

SPEAKER_03:

Well, I will say the first time You are a friend. Yeah, the first time I said, you know, give I didn't even know the price of the Uber yet, but I said give me half. Oh. And I didn't do that. And you said, well, you also drove me to Andrew's last week when my car died. Right. And back. So you insisted on giving me$20 extra. Yeah. Right. So, you know, it was kind of almost three rounds. You bought me McDonald's, I think. No, I no, you gave me you gave me some cash for that.

SPEAKER_05:

Um see you guys went to McDonald's without me.

SPEAKER_03:

Yeah, but we didn't talk about the podcast because I just he tried bringing it up, I wouldn't do it.

SPEAKER_05:

He wouldn't refuse to talk about it.

SPEAKER_06:

Thank you.

SPEAKER_03:

I refuse. He was like, How'd that go? I was like, eh, I don't want to. I'll I'll talk about it with somebody else later.

SPEAKER_06:

Do you think it went fine? And then he he was like, he he basically was like, stop eating my French fries. Yeah, and he and he called his girlfriend. He's like, I'm staying over, I'm staying the night. I'm like, all right. Yeah. Um, but here's my here's my question with the money. Aside from Jack uh charging me an exorbitant exorbitant exor exorbitant exorbitant an amount of money. Exorbitant. Exorbitant, yeah. It doesn't matter. Um I was talking to my my friend over there, I was talking to my friend over there, and we were talking about the Irish goodbye and how the Irish goodbye at a wedding is totally acceptable. Totally acceptable, I believe. I think that it is better to not say goodbye to the bride and groom. Don't go out on the dance floor, interrupt their good time to be like, I'm leaving. And he told me, he said he actually went to a wedding where the bride and groom specifically wrote on their I don't know, where do you write things for on the table uh or or in the in the invitation? I don't know, that when you leave, we love you, just leave. No need to interrupt and and that sounds a little rude. Yeah, no need to interrupt us. That's not the right way to put it, but it's it's more of you were you you were a bride. You were a a groom re a bride and groom recently. Maybe it was different with your wedding. Um, I don't even know if I said goodbye. I don't think I said goodbye at your wedding, by the way, now that I think about it. I jumped, I jumped in your parents' taxi. Oh, you did? Yeah, your your parents took me home. I love that. Yeah. Um They love you. But I didn't say goodbye to you, I don't think. Because at a wedding, there's so much happening and there's so many everything is focused focused on the bride and groom that you're okay. You don't need to go up to them and be and be the 50th person to say goodbye. Do you understand where I'm calling you? I do understand that.

SPEAKER_05:

Yes. Here's my caveat. Okay. If you're leaving at a weird time, like early, I think it's nice to say goodbye. I I don't know. I I I'm I'm 50-50 on the Irish goodbye. It depends on how well you know them, too.

SPEAKER_03:

That's also true. Like it but and then there's I think there's a threshold that comes back around. Because if you know them super well, you don't have to. I agree. You know, if you know them kind of well, yes. But if you don't really know them, no.

SPEAKER_06:

I think that may that see Jack, you're a shining light in this podcast because I agree with you with that, because I think if we're all old friends, we know you know I love you. I'll see you. I don't need to interrupt you. But if you're visiting from another state, another country where there was people from there was people from um West Africa there. Okay? And yeah, wow. And I met them and and they talked to me. But like them, they traveled far. I think for them, you go up and say goodbye. But for the rest of us, I'm gonna text you in the next week or so. We don't need to do that. Because there's just so much happening with the bride and groom.

unknown:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05:

Now, what's your thought on an Irish goodbye at a like a tertiary sort of like uh bridal shower or like uh something that you go to where it's like a medium level event, fifty people there?

SPEAKER_06:

Yeah. I am not good with it because I do I do dip a lot without saying goodbye. I have a weird anxiety with going up to the people and saying goodbye. But do you feel good about it? I feel relief once I left.

SPEAKER_05:

No, I feel relief too. I do that, I mean, I I'll I'll do it out of anxiety for sure.

SPEAKER_06:

There's time like I'll of course I'll say goodbye, but I would say I family parties holiday, I hate the goodbyes.

SPEAKER_03:

I do too, but and I can't get myself to Irish goodbye at a family party. Oh, I've done it. Yeah.

SPEAKER_06:

It's it's you kind of just slip away. You know what helps though is that I'm single. I don't have like a wife and kids.

SPEAKER_03:

Oh, they want they don't Irish goodbyes. No, you're a team, you can't Irish goodbyes.

SPEAKER_06:

You can't that's why you can't tell your young kids, all right, slip in the car, alright? Just don't say goodbye to anybody. They won't notice we're gone. They will. But with me, I can sort of slip and out, slip out through the through the back, you know? Yeah. And nobody notices I'm gone. They notice here's the Especially with the lack of body hair. Here's what they know. Yeah, very slippery. But they notice I'm gone, and when they notice, it's not like oh. All right. We had a good time with him. Like it it's almost like I come up in a memory, you know? Yeah. Maybe I'm crazy. But I don't know. I was so we said we were talking about this at the wedding, and uh and then the same friend I was talking to, midway through the wedding, they were telling me they were gonna leave early. They had to drive back to Brooklyn. Swear to God, I go to the bathroom, I come back, and I had just explained this whole thing to them, right? And they're on board with it, and I'm looking for them, and I'm like, I'm pretty sure they just Irish goodbye to me. They took my knowledge and slipped out the back door, didn't even say goodbye to me. And then you I'm assuming you like shed a tear and was like, I was like, dude, I was I was kind of pissed. I was like, geez, this is kind of rude. And then they showed up and I was like, I thought you guys pulled my move. And they're like, We knew you thought we were.

SPEAKER_05:

They're like, no, we're a team, we can't.

SPEAKER_06:

Yeah. But then they left and uh You missed the team clause.

SPEAKER_05:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06:

So alright, yeah. Well, it was uh thank you for driving me. Of course, of course, yeah. Andrew, I wouldn't even ask you.

SPEAKER_05:

Why?

SPEAKER_06:

Because I'm sure you wouldn't do it. Why? I don't think you would. I wouldn't have to do it.

SPEAKER_05:

I've driven you so many places.

SPEAKER_06:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05:

And then you and then like when I park my car, we'll talk for like 10-15 minutes before you get out. I always like that. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03:

So like he couldn't wait to get out of my car. That's not true.

SPEAKER_06:

Yeah. You couldn't wait to get me out of out of your car.

SPEAKER_03:

Andrew, how was your week?

SPEAKER_05:

Uh it was good. I went to the library. I like the library.

SPEAKER_03:

Yeah. I do like the library too. I have spent a lot of time.

SPEAKER_05:

It's one of the few like places that you pay for with your taxes that you go in and you're like, wow, I'm glad I paid my taxes. Yes. I never thought about that. Yeah, like because you go in and there's no transactions. You just go in, you do your thing. You just need a library card, right? Yeah. No, you don't even. Like to assist. Well, no, you need one to take out a book, but like I just go into work. And yeah, you can read any book you want. My library has pods. These little glass pods that you can sit in, and you're like a little fishbowl.

SPEAKER_03:

Yeah, mine have that, but they smell.

SPEAKER_05:

That's what I was about to say. I feel like people look at mine and they're like, that definitely smells in there. I would imagine it does. I think that What did you expect on that?

SPEAKER_03:

You why'd you look around the room?

SPEAKER_05:

I don't know. Just to see what you guys would say. Well, no, the thing is sometimes you do sometimes you do fart in there. Yeah. And it's just a little bit closed? Yeah, it's a little fart chamber.

SPEAKER_06:

I don't understand the meaning of this.

SPEAKER_05:

So I so why would you how would you be comfortable reading a book in a fishbowl? So I farted in the thing and I and I and I opened up the thing a little.

SPEAKER_03:

You give a little intervention.

SPEAKER_05:

Yeah, that's my that's been my week. I farted in a little in a little container and I and I let and I pushed the door open a little bit so I didn't just like sit in my own fart. And I wasn't doing anything important at all. Were you reading in there? Were you just trying to take a break from life? No, I was working on some just like up-down art or whatever. Okay, so you had your computer in there? Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I farted and it wasn't that bad, but I also was just like, let me just air it out a little bit. Like there's like I felt like I was in, like I was being like, because when you're in like a glass thing or you're looking into glass, you feel like you're not there in a certain way.

SPEAKER_06:

I disagree. I feel like I'm I'm on display. Rather, like I don't know how people like if I was going to a library to read, like why the last place I wanted to go is in a glass bowl.

SPEAKER_05:

Well, it's a glass of glass rectangle.

SPEAKER_06:

I don't care what shape it is. If people can look at me in there.

SPEAKER_05:

Yeah, you know what it is that maybe I just have a thing where when there's glass like when you're in your car, I feel like it's like the glass protects you from the rest of the world, even though they can kind of see in.

SPEAKER_03:

Yeah, especially when it comes to noise.

SPEAKER_06:

Yeah, I mean the noise, but I mean it's not tinted at all. It's just it's just clear glass.

SPEAKER_03:

Oh, you can't tint a uh a glass store at a library. I guess not. You'll get too many freaks in there.

SPEAKER_06:

Yeah, no, but like maybe just a little I don't know. I know, and it's so funny, like I just don't like I don't like I don't understand it. Like I love the idea of the pod, but I guess it's because it's a public space because you can't make it too private where people get a little too at home.

SPEAKER_05:

I know, I feel like people really want to like do their stuff at the library, you know, if there's an appropriate time.

SPEAKER_06:

I'm sorry, what's wrong with a desk? What are we we can't just sit at a desk and read? It's then it it keeps out the noise, it's nice. Yeah, but if it libraries I remember had like almost cubbies, you know, where you could just sort of they had like wooden uh almost like stalls. That kept out the noise. Now you have to put me on display like a goddamn goldfish.

SPEAKER_05:

They don't have a lot of them, they only have two, and I just got one, and I the first time that I ever had one, I was really excited. And I stunk it up. And I feel like many people are doing this.

SPEAKER_03:

There is an art to like when you fart in like a room, like where like you should take a shit in the bathroom, of the amount of space you can leave the door open so that the right amount comes out where it doesn't stink up the rest of the place, but you do get the ventilation. There is a big art to that.

SPEAKER_05:

It's about it's about that much.

SPEAKER_03:

Yeah, it's about I would say it's about I would say uh maybe a little smaller.

SPEAKER_05:

Yeah, like between two and four inches. I'm sorry, you're talking about in the bathroom? Like you just you just went. You went.

SPEAKER_03:

Number two.

SPEAKER_05:

And you went bad.

SPEAKER_03:

Oh, okay. Yeah. You went you went down bad in the bathroom. Yeah. You got down bad. And you're leaving the bathroom. We're talking pile above the water.

SPEAKER_06:

I've never done that.

SPEAKER_05:

Never?

SPEAKER_06:

No, no, no, I get out of here. No, no, I I Are we living in a different planet?

SPEAKER_03:

This is unbelievable. I swear. This is why we don't invite you to the podcast.

SPEAKER_06:

Oh, why you guys just get together and make huge dumps? We pile above above the water in the corner.

SPEAKER_03:

Like, Brennan doesn't go above the water.

SPEAKER_06:

I'll tell you what, if I have that uh that Shake Shack French onion soup burger, maybe I'll go above water. All right.

SPEAKER_03:

Well, you call us when that happens.

SPEAKER_06:

Maybe I will. Let us know. Yeah. Right on this.

SPEAKER_03:

But anyway, you go above the water, you know, or just you stink up, you stink up the joint. It's insane. You stink up the joint. Yeah. You know. That's uh there's mobsters being like, yeah, we're gonna stink up the joint.

SPEAKER_05:

We're gonna go in there, we're gonna get every bathroom, we're gonna go above the water. You're going above the water over.

SPEAKER_03:

You know, my my joint's not doing so good. I think we'll go in there late at night, we'll get the poop insurance, and we'll stink up the joint.

SPEAKER_05:

Oh my god, I woke up this morning and my place stunk.

SPEAKER_06:

Can I ask you a question? This is something that I have always uh tried.

SPEAKER_03:

Can we can we uh finish the this uh the science of this or is this related? It's related. Okay, go ahead. We'll circle back to the science, it's always gonna be there.

SPEAKER_06:

When you have a uh I guess a uh a gas, um a fart? Yeah. Um have you ever done the move where you now I I don't think the science holds up, but I've done this before where I try to smell it so fast that it disappears like you suck it up like a back. That you get it back on. Yeah, like I you vacuum up the fart into your lungs. Like like my nose is gonna Nobody else can smell it. Yeah, yeah. You know? Well, you know what you gotta do.

SPEAKER_05:

You can't once you fart, you gotta turn around and bend down and then sniff. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You gotta get it right from where the source was.

SPEAKER_03:

Well, you gotta crouch to like the air, because it'll settle into like a halfway up your body. Right. So you gotta crouch down and and scoop it in.

SPEAKER_06:

What about what about getting one stuck under you and like you ever been sitting there? Well, you gotta trap it. And you tr and you accidentally trapped it, yeah, and then it kind of dissipates, or so you think, and then you get up and you're like, Oh no, it's back. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Has that ever happened to you guys? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_05:

You just gotta hope that you're with people who can appreciate a fart. Right, right. Because some people are truly grossed out by it, and those people like aren't so good.

SPEAKER_03:

I'm I so I'm pretty gross. Like, if you two, if either of you were to fart right now, I would I would not like that. You wouldn't. I'm not like that. I'm all I think farts are funny. I think art farts are funny. I would love to have a son one day that I can enjoy farts with, but nobody else. Literally nobody else. Burps are fine. What about your lady? No, not my lady. She can't fart? No, we it if you know if it's happened, it's sneaked, it's sneaked out.

SPEAKER_06:

Have you ever done it in front of her?

SPEAKER_03:

It's sneaked out.

SPEAKER_06:

It was a sneak. I've been Dutch Dove and we don't mention it. Nobody's mentioned it. No. I think that's a little unhealthy. I have a much healthier fart relationship. I think that's I don't know. I think there's a there's a happy medium. I think too much fart humor between loved ones could be a little too aggressive. Yeah. But I think none at all is where maybe maybe we're not as comfortable as we should.

SPEAKER_03:

I uh I I will say she was um there was one time when she was laying like laying on me, and and I and I and she she was kind of laying on my stomach. Right and it pushed it out.

SPEAKER_07:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03:

And uh and then that it was more of like a okay, and then she moved.

SPEAKER_06:

It was an okay.

SPEAKER_03:

It was yeah, but it wasn't like what would you say? It was it was it wasn't like it that was the energy, she didn't say it out loud, but she was like, I'm gonna move.

SPEAKER_05:

You know, where could where is she gonna move that's so much better than on top of you? Next, next to me. But then your fart like, so if you think about the trajectory of a fart, I imagine you're laying down, it goes beneath you, and then it travels out both sides of your butt to the right and left.

SPEAKER_03:

No. She was we were sitting like like this. Like she was this way. Mm-hmm. Right? So it was. Oh, it went underneath and straight up. It went underneath and straight through. Yeah.

SPEAKER_05:

Okay.

SPEAKER_03:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05:

I I think that you should become uh you should maybe do some work on your relationship to be a more progressive fart couple.

SPEAKER_03:

Yeah, instead of team, we should do steam.

SPEAKER_06:

Yeah, I I think I think uh I think I would agree with Andrew with this because it's I yeah.

SPEAKER_03:

A little bit. I agree. I would like there to be some humor. I would like it to be because if I bar if I if I like uh burped like really big, she would find some she'd be like, whoa. Right. You know, but if I I would like to think that if I fart farted that big, she would she would have the same reaction. But there would be I don't want to have that because here's the thing, here's what I've noticed with other people's relationships the guys start it, usually. You guys start the fart? The guys usually start the farting in the in the relationship, I think. And they do it, and then the girls, you know, st start doing it, and they get comfortable, and it's great if you can have that. But I don't want that from her. I agree.

SPEAKER_06:

I I don't want a girl that ripped one ahead of me, and I uh let's just say she didn't last very long. Yeah. I had to get rid of her. I was like, what kind of what kind of animal am I dealing with? Yeah.

SPEAKER_03:

But then but then there's it's it's such a a hard thing to do because sorry, I was thinking of my own joke when I said stink up the joint.

SPEAKER_06:

Oh yeah, look at that. Uh but it's so hard because I you do want that I think you want an open relationship where you can both joke about it and just be honest. Yeah. That the things are happening. The the the idea that it happens and nothing is mentioned, psychopathic.

SPEAKER_05:

Yeah. A lot of times, uh Chris uh a girl that I dated once, I've only dated one girl and I married her. Yeah. Uh she'll go, you know what I'm pin it. Hell yeah. Nice. She'll go, you know what I think about that, and then she'll fart. Does she lift her leg too? Sometimes, yeah, whatever. Right. But like we're we're a very fart-friendly couple. I know she'll have no problem with me sharing that.

SPEAKER_03:

See, I'm I'm worried about what I only what I've shared. You know? But I'm you know, not because she she's not gonna like actually be upset or like annoyed about it, but she'll you know, I just uh that's not part of our relationship. So I feel like so maybe this is the intro to that. They could hopefully intro. Maybe this will be the the the thread. There'll be like a fart ribboning through our podcast that will yeah, and again, Jack, I don't think you need to go full fart like Andrew's in.

SPEAKER_05:

No, no, no. I don't think this is necessary. I don't think you need to go. That's not what I'm saying.

SPEAKER_03:

I will say, I will say, I think Christine um uh she she I hate that you love it so much. Um I made a similar joke three days ago, so it was on my mind. Um but uh um like your wife is cool, and I think that my girlfriend is cool in different ways. And I think that she what I I don't the tone switched. What? Tone? What tone? Your tone. No, I think I think I think my girlfriend is cool. Your wife is very cool.

SPEAKER_06:

My wife is cool.

SPEAKER_05:

I know, I don't know if this is a diss or if we have to go do that for Alyssa.

SPEAKER_06:

Yeah, yeah, I think she is cool. She is cool, okay. I mean you're axing stuff out of the podcast non-stop over here. I don't know how cool. I might keep this. I don't know how cool you are. I've I'm thinking, I'm like, this guy's gonna axe this too. He's just axing it.

SPEAKER_02:

He's axing everything.

SPEAKER_06:

Call him the axe man.

SPEAKER_03:

I've never known anybody that gives himself more nicknames than Brendan.

SPEAKER_05:

None of them stick.

SPEAKER_03:

Yeah, no, no, no, none of them stick. Corduroy boy stuck, baby. No, I'm my uh, you know, um listen, my girlfriend's a little princess. That's what I'm trying to get at. I appreciate that.

SPEAKER_06:

All women are princesses, but also they're pigs.

SPEAKER_05:

How long how long have you two been together?

SPEAKER_03:

Four and a half years.

SPEAKER_05:

Wait until year eight and tell me she's a princess.

SPEAKER_03:

I can't wait. No, honestly, like I want I want it to be like I've seen videos of like old people, and they're just like, Would you get the fuck out of here? Yeah, yeah, no, but you can tell there's so much love there.

SPEAKER_05:

Yeah, that's that's my goal too.

SPEAKER_03:

Yeah, there's love there's love in that. You know, you're really being fucking annoying today.

SPEAKER_06:

You're really like it's almost as like the you know, the how they they say that New Yorkers are rude, but there's a kindness to the rudeness. Yes, yeah. They're not nice, but they're kind. Yeah, but that's what like a lot of old couples are. It's like get you get to the point. Yeah, yeah. You don't need to beat around the bush. Yeah, exactly. By the way, alright, so let me let me get this straight. You and your wife. First girlfriend.

SPEAKER_05:

Yeah. We're on 10 years now.

SPEAKER_06:

First girlfriend? First girlfriend, yeah. This is insane to me. I have you two and two of my friends that are currently married, first girlfriend, marriage. Wow. I mean, that's like going into McDonald's and only trying the chicken nugget. And not trying a cheeseburger, not trying a Big Mac.

SPEAKER_03:

Well, you find No, no, no, no, no, you find a girl that's the whole menu.

SPEAKER_06:

Oh, that's see, that's a move right there.

SPEAKER_05:

You find a girl who's the double quarter pounder with cheese.

SPEAKER_06:

There you go. Little mac sauce on the side, ever. I guess that's cheating, right? No, it's not. Okay. Because sometimes you throw a little max sauce on her. I'm just, um, it just shocks me as a single guy who has I've had a few girlfriends in my life. Nobody could ever fit the one that I choose to be with me for life.

SPEAKER_05:

Yeah, because you uh articulate what you need so well.

SPEAKER_06:

Um I'm shocked that I know so many guys who are one girl men. The oops club? It's not even an oops club, it's oops, I have a wife. Well, but it's it's like I I just it blows my mind. The two and they're two really close friends to me that um, aside from you guys, that have both married now with kids, that this worked out, and I was like, that's insane. I but I don't know.

SPEAKER_03:

You know, it's almost like the Bible's right.

SPEAKER_06:

Yeah, sure.

SPEAKER_07:

It's right.

SPEAKER_06:

Corinthians 9 11. That's that's a good passage. Look at this, my fing wallet's always falling out. This is how I lose stuff. I know I noticed your wallet was on the wall. This is what I popped up before and did, I don't know, whatever the hell I was doing. Do a little dance. Do a little dance.

SPEAKER_03:

Get down tonight.

SPEAKER_06:

Get down tonight. So alright, well that's good for you guys.

SPEAKER_03:

Alright. Um, do we want to do a uh little uh listener submission?

SPEAKER_05:

Can I talk about Curtis Lewa first? Oh! Yes!

SPEAKER_03:

Did you guys go to the Can I go to the bathroom first? I forgot about that. I I forgot to pee before the you guys can talk while uh I go. This guy, this guy's my candidate. I want to be here for the Curtis Lewa talk.

SPEAKER_06:

What do you want us to wait for you? Talk about something else.

SPEAKER_03:

I actually have to pee, yeah.

SPEAKER_06:

Oh yeah, go pee. I've never seen such a move. He he's he's he's he's he's censoring us in such a way I've never seen.

SPEAKER_05:

Well, what's good is that we can talk about our experience with Curtis Slewa personally.

SPEAKER_06:

Yeah, we both have a a uh very personal experience with Curtis.

SPEAKER_05:

Yeah, we both did a comedy show. Well, should we wait for Jack to come here? For Curtis, we're gonna talk about Curtis Slewa for a while. I think we're gonna be.

SPEAKER_06:

Alright, so yeah. So let's talk about our experience with Curtis.

SPEAKER_05:

How did we get on the show? It was a Curtis Sleewa uh like like foundation. It was a fundraiser fundraiser for Curtis Sleewa. There were like we were stressing about this a little bit.

SPEAKER_06:

Yes. So I had a girl I know was dating a somebody that was involved with the campaign. And a low life. And she knew I did comedy, and she reached out and uh and she's like, hey, will you want to do I think she originally asked me to do a full hour in front of Curtis Leewood and his buddies, yeah?

SPEAKER_05:

Which apparently uh he has like three buddies.

SPEAKER_06:

Yeah, and they all dress the same, they all wear the same red hat. But I I at the time I asked you and uh I think Christian. Christian and Kyle Mara. Yeah. And and there was another comic there too, and um, that they got. Which is funny. Do you do you know that the one of the the campaign manager when I gave him the names, he was like, I don't know who this because it your Instagram just had yo-yos or something, and he goes, I'm not sure about this Andrew guy. Does he do comedy? Um because he just probably just looked at Instagram. Like I'm like, yeah, he's great. And he's like, Alright, I'll trust you. Just because you didn't have a clip or something. So that was the first thing, but uh I'm the odd one out. Yeah, but you did great, and it was so bizarre. First of all, I know I knew the guy was running for mayor. This is this is what? What year? Four years ago. Four years ago, so he's he's back at it again. The guy's running for mayor, and at the time, we knew the guy was cooked when he's hiring us to be the talent at his campaign.

SPEAKER_05:

At least hire Namesh Patel. You could at least hire uh like a just a seller comic.

SPEAKER_06:

Yes. And from what I remember is we went up, and it was all these angels, the guardian angels were there with their berets. Yeah. And Curtis Sleewa sat like a king, dead center of us. Just dead center. Dead center with his arms crossed and his beret with a with a slight smile on his face. And sort of like he just shook his head in approval. I had a couple laughs out of Sleewa. Yeah, he would, he would, he would give you laughs, but it was it was it was a lot of just Yeah. He's like it was like we were performing for the king.

SPEAKER_05:

Well, we were in the back of a pub.

SPEAKER_06:

Yes.

SPEAKER_05:

Like a back of an Irish pub. There were in total Why did I think this was outside when you guys did this?

SPEAKER_03:

I don't know.

SPEAKER_05:

Because it sounded like it was gonna be a big thing. We were like nervous about it, and then it turned out to be like we were performing to Curtis Leo and like six other people.

SPEAKER_03:

Yeah, it was very bizarre. Who was it? You guys, Christian was Kyle Mara.

SPEAKER_06:

Kyle Mara and uh Jason Jason, I forget his name. Derulous Jason Darulo. He's a Mark Norman friend, friend of Norman, one of those guys. Um so yeah, he was the guy that they they they got. But I I he happened to do one of my uh Croxley shows. So dude, it was so bizarre, so bizarre. But I kind of every time I see him now, I think about that show, and um and I think after we went on, Curtis went up and he goes, Alright, well, the comedians did their best to try to entertain us or something weird.

SPEAKER_05:

To entertain the fuck the freaking four of us. And it was it was guy it was Guardian Angels that refused to like give you anything. Yeah, I think that he was just upset that there was no one there more than anything.

SPEAKER_06:

Right.

SPEAKER_05:

Like uh you could have the greatest comedy show in the world for four people and one king is sitting in the middle, and it's like I will say I I think be you know being out of COVID is probably helping his run this year.

SPEAKER_03:

You know? Like because you did that during COVID, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_05:

It was just like, yeah, it was like Cuomo was gonna win because people were just comfortable with him already.

SPEAKER_03:

Um Well, no, it wasn't Cuomo, it was uh No, it was he was going against Cuomo. Yeah. Oh, he was? Yeah, during COVID. Oh, I don't know.

SPEAKER_06:

That was big Cuomo because people either people first love Cuomo and then they hated him. They turned on him. Right. And he came back.

SPEAKER_03:

Is that the election that Eric Adams won? Or is that before?

SPEAKER_05:

I guess it must have been the one he won.

SPEAKER_06:

Yeah, it was. It had to have been. Yeah. But Cuomo was in that because he So it was it must have been after COVID.

SPEAKER_05:

We don't know what we were performing for, really. We were a gig's a gig.

SPEAKER_06:

By the way, they were also selling merch. You could buy a hat. A beret? A beret.

SPEAKER_05:

Yeah, it was like 60, 70. It was insane.

SPEAKER_06:

Because I was like, I'll buy it for a goof. But like it was so much money. Also, I remember calling it a hat. Oh, yeah. And they got pissed.

SPEAKER_05:

He corrected a mid-set.

SPEAKER_06:

Dude, they they jumped.

SPEAKER_05:

Beret.

SPEAKER_06:

Beret. Yeah. The Guardian Angels almost took me out for calling it a hat. Wow. I was like, yeah, he's he's running from A, he's got his hat, he's got his red hat. He's like, it's a beret! Like five of them, all the whole group.

SPEAKER_03:

Imagine if you were on a subway, they would have been all over the street. Oh, they would have taken me down if they're gonna be able to get it.

SPEAKER_05:

They would have probably stood near like I don't think that the Guardian Angels are real at all. I never see them in person.

SPEAKER_06:

When I was a kid, I used to see them.

SPEAKER_05:

So you see them, but they're just like an intimidating force. They're like a security guard at the Apple store.

SPEAKER_06:

I think back in the day they were more. I remember I remember being a little kid going on the subway with my dad, and it was like that was the subway was not what it was today. It was very dangerous. And don't ask me why I was on the subway with my dad, but it whatever we were doing. Um Andrew, don't ask them.

SPEAKER_05:

Don't you dare I was gonna say, why were you on the subway with your dad?

SPEAKER_03:

I was thinking it too, but I was I I'm too afraid just continue. Just don't leave it, just Andrew, let you go. Go ahead. Hey, Brendan, what continue the story.

SPEAKER_06:

You don't ask.

SPEAKER_05:

Well, you saw a Guardian Angel is at the story.

SPEAKER_06:

I saw several of them. They were tough guys, and my dad pointed them out. He goes, Those are Guardian Angels. And I think back then, we the subway now, people talk about it like it's it's a problem. It's peanuts compared to what it was back in the day.

SPEAKER_03:

I was like, hey Brendan, you see these guys, no raping.

SPEAKER_06:

No, but they would step in if there was like a an incident in the subway, which there used to be a lot more of.

SPEAKER_03:

Of course, of course. And I get it.

SPEAKER_06:

So you followed Curtis Slewa since we left. Ever since that day, every once in a while I'll see him on television and I'll think about that night. I'm like, geez, the many places comedy has taken me. That's what that that's why like many dark roads.

SPEAKER_05:

He was in the mayoral debate. Did either of you guys watch this at all?

SPEAKER_03:

I watched the first three minutes. I didn't watch any of it.

SPEAKER_05:

And then I got distracted. Basically, the whole debate is between Zoron and Cuomo, who are like yelling at each other, but he was also there and he like made it known. Like they they would just be asking questions to Zoron, and they'd be asking questions to Cuomo, and then he'd be like, Hey, isn't this a three-person debate? And they're like, Oh yeah, we have one for you. We forgot about you. And they're like, What's your opinion on the color red? And he's like, The color red is the color of my hat, and one thing I gotta say bad about Zoron, one thing I gotta say bad about Mumdon, one thing I gotta say bad about Cuomo, and they're like, Okay, that's enough time. Um, so like then they just move back to the other ones, and you could see him visibly getting more and more and more upset throughout the whole thing, and he didn't have the hat on, and I think that's why it didn't go so well for him. Why didn't he have his hat on? I think you're probably not allowed to wear a hat during the.

SPEAKER_03:

I'm dressed mayorial tonight, right? Yeah, I have no hat. Yeah, I have no hat. I look like a mayor. Yeah, I'm here for the people.

SPEAKER_06:

You're not wearing a ridiculous hat.

SPEAKER_03:

He literally I think he literally said, I'm electable.

SPEAKER_05:

Basically, he's just the whole time going like, What about me? And they're like, You're not really here. Like, they're like, You're not really here. And he'd be like, Okay, wait, do I get a chance to respond? Do I get a chance to respond? They're like, Okay, here's a chance to respond. And he'd be like, The first thing I want to say is the rat problem is getting out of and they're like, Okay, Zoran, what do you have to say about this? And he'd be like the whole time just getting so pissed off. I believe I was mentioned, you were not mentioned. And like, neither of them said his name once.

SPEAKER_06:

I believe one of his big stances he is he wants to release his cats upon the city to get rid of the rats. Oh, he's got the toughest cats. He loves cats, he loves his cats.

SPEAKER_05:

He's got many of them. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03:

He's like, my cats are gonna they can get rid of it. I've been breeding these cats since the 80s. They're still alive and they're ready to get distobed rats.

SPEAKER_05:

We brought little hats for them.

SPEAKER_03:

We crossbred them with the teenage meeting ninja turtles.

SPEAKER_06:

But this guy got shot by like Gotti's people too.

SPEAKER_05:

Yeah, there was one point during.

SPEAKER_06:

This guy's lived a life.

SPEAKER_05:

And they go, Cuomo, if you like if you have to get around the city quick, what do you take? He goes, I don't know, a yellow cab or an Uber. And then uh they're like Zoran. He's probably like, oh, public transit.

SPEAKER_06:

You know, he's so they all private drivers except for Curtis.

SPEAKER_05:

Yeah, and then Curtis is like, is like, well, you know, I got shot six times in the back of a taxi once. And then he was like, and then eventually he was like, so yeah, Uber.

SPEAKER_06:

He finds a way to let people know that that Gotti shot him.

SPEAKER_05:

Yeah, he was like, I got shot by John Gotti, and whatever.

SPEAKER_06:

By the way, which is fair, if I got shot by John Gotti, I would weave it into a lot of conversations.

SPEAKER_05:

For sure, and you gotta that's like one of his main points. But then I like that at the end he was like, but I'll take it Uber or something.

SPEAKER_03:

I guess I'll take it Uber. Yeah. He's like the 50 cent of uh of of mayor candidates.

SPEAKER_05:

It's true.

SPEAKER_03:

I got shot nine times. You still couldn't stop me on the A train.

SPEAKER_05:

Oh my god. It's just it it it's f it was like a sketch because like there was a serious thing going on where they're trying to figure out who's gonna be the mayor, and I feel like it's like kind of obvious who will be the mayor. I'm surprised SNL hasn't a Curtis.

SPEAKER_03:

I guarantee that's the cold open this week. I guess it has that debate has to be. I don't know who's gonna play who's gonna play each person.

SPEAKER_06:

Maybe they'll hire him.

SPEAKER_03:

Yeah. I I'm surprised Mamdani hasn't been on the show yet.

SPEAKER_06:

Yeah, that would be good for him. Yeah. Has any of them been on the show? I guess not. I don't know.

SPEAKER_03:

Maybe back in the day a Cuoma was or something. Yeah. Maybe so. I don't know.

SPEAKER_06:

I feel like it's a good move. Yeah, right.

SPEAKER_03:

To go on the show? To go on the show. I mean, for McCain, it was like basically him admitting defeat like before the election.

SPEAKER_06:

Well, well, that was like with the Sarah Palin thing, right? Right, yeah. He was like, I'm just gonna have fun. Yeah, that was a rough, that was a rough go. Um, but if you if you do it where you're like still kind of involved and like if you you're able to play it right.

SPEAKER_03:

There's a video of Jack White on uh SNL, and you c and you're like, oh, I'm gonna watch this Jack White video on SNL, and then it opens up and it's just John McCain, ladies and gentlemen, Jack White, the white stripes, you're like What the fuck is John McCain doing? He hosted us now in like 2003. Oh my god.

SPEAKER_06:

That's so great. That's crazy. I have to look for that.

SPEAKER_05:

One of the best Republicans. Yes. It was in multiple sketches. Like Bad Bunny?

SPEAKER_03:

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh my God. Yeah, they did, they did a uh what's his name? What's the colo? Uh fuck. I forgot the name of the sketch. Uh alright, never mind. That's great. It's the one with fuck, it's the most Marcello sketch. When they uh the you know the Domingo. You know the Domingo sketch? No, this wasn't my John McCain. They did it with John McCain first.

SPEAKER_06:

I I think I I don't I wasn't watching so much at that point.

SPEAKER_03:

I've been watching since I was five years old.

SPEAKER_06:

I I watched when I was like I had a uh an SNL time, but you know, yeah it it I it I don't watch it.

SPEAKER_03:

I watched wrestling and SNL.

SPEAKER_05:

Is it time to move on to our submission?

SPEAKER_06:

Yeah, so I I got I got one submission for uh what are we calling it now?

SPEAKER_05:

Poopy head of the week?

SPEAKER_03:

I believe we locked in Poopy Head of the Week. Well now why do we lock it in?

SPEAKER_06:

I I believe it I I always I I was under the impression it's a working title.

SPEAKER_03:

That's um, you know, we're with it's the it's the title we're working with, yeah.

SPEAKER_05:

Yeah, it it's like a lock-in, like a seat belt. Yeah, there's always a release but it's locked. It's like uh somebody's going to jail, you know, yeah, they're locked in.

SPEAKER_03:

The amount of people that hate it. Like I've never heard of anybody hating it. Yes, you have. I've heard of people like, oh yeah, that sounds like a really good title, but I could see why Brendan wouldn't like it.

SPEAKER_06:

No, no, then it's not Brendan only. It is it is multiple people, and you know that. You know that.

SPEAKER_03:

I don't know of anybody that aside from you. People are are saying who are these vague people?

SPEAKER_05:

All these people.

SPEAKER_03:

People on the internet, us weekly. You know, Brendan, we don't have a social media yet. Nobody's messaging. These are our fans.

SPEAKER_06:

All right. You I'm I'm gonna play I'm gonna play a little message I got this week.

SPEAKER_03:

Okay, play a little message. Hold on, make sure your volume's up before you start playing. Pop me out of the week. That sounds like a really good title.

SPEAKER_00:

I wouldn't say that I encountered an idiot this week, but definitely something I'd consider like an idiotic move. I have this friend who's really, really funny, and um I think anything he touches could probably be successful. And he started a new podcast with some friends, so I'm really excited about it. But then I found out they took a funny segment, or could be a funny segment, and named it Poopy Head of the Week, and I feel like I won't listen now.

SPEAKER_06:

What do we think?

SPEAKER_00:

Something like my three-year-old says, and I'm I'm over poopy. I feel like they could definitely come up with something better.

SPEAKER_03:

Okay, how how much did you pay her to say that?

SPEAKER_06:

I didn't hear anything. I I and I'll even say this I got a second submission.

SPEAKER_03:

Okay, who was that? Who was the first submission, first off?

SPEAKER_06:

Uh I that was a uh a good friend of mine. Uh how good?

SPEAKER_03:

I feel like I know who it is.

SPEAKER_06:

One of my favorite people in the world.

SPEAKER_05:

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_06:

She's my my uh one of my good friend's wife. I know exactly who it is.

SPEAKER_05:

Um and she's been misled. Misguided. She's not misguided.

SPEAKER_06:

She's been uh Okay, but but the but they put out a good point because children say this. And to and to and to show you this, that children this is a children's word. This is a word that parents are fed up with hearing. I got this sent to me. This is one kid.

SPEAKER_01:

Poopy head.

SPEAKER_06:

That was so. That's our audience. That's gonna be our audience.

SPEAKER_03:

That's gonna be the sound. Alright, well we got another one segment.

SPEAKER_06:

We have another kid that scolds us. I didn't like Poopy Head of the Week grow up. The kids aren't a fan. I don't think that's what he said. No, it's a she, and that's exactly what she said.

SPEAKER_05:

I don't think that's what she said.

SPEAKER_03:

Yeah, but I think what do you think she said?

SPEAKER_05:

Uh Poopy Head of the Week, uh, that's what's up. No. No, that's not.

SPEAKER_03:

I think no, I what I heard was Poopy Head of the Week blow up. It's gonna be a good segment. It's gonna blow up.

SPEAKER_06:

That's what I should I call names out? Because I will call names out.

SPEAKER_03:

There's no need to call names.

SPEAKER_06:

I think the first lady I got a text as we were recording. Can I hold on one second?

SPEAKER_03:

The text was Brendan. This is the lady from the first message. Um I take it all back. I take it all back.

SPEAKER_06:

They took a screenshot of your thing. I was somebody wrote poopy head is sticking, I guess. The other person wrote disgusting.

SPEAKER_03:

These people have been misled by elitist left wing media.

SPEAKER_06:

Yeah, and elitist right-wing media. I mean, and people don't like it. It it is childish, it's dumb, it's stupid. All right, it's Curtis Lewa territory, if we're gonna be honest. So give me a shame. They gave it a sign uh this group text. Okay.

SPEAKER_05:

What was their suggestion?

SPEAKER_06:

Alright, they said uh dope or nope.

unknown:

That actually sounds like I kind of like it.

SPEAKER_04:

I kind of like it, but I really don't want to give Brendan this. I don't really want to give him any validation here.

SPEAKER_06:

Again, you're meeting without me.

SPEAKER_05:

Let's let's uh let's stick with let's stick with our plan. And we'll talk about it after.

SPEAKER_04:

Okay, I think we should I think we should go to Buffalo Wildlings after this separately, and um, we'll just let Brendan go, and then I think we should do poopy head of the week, like at least ten more episodes, and then maybe revisit doper nope. Dopernope. It's really a lot better. Yeah, especially because I feel like we can also go like the dope route, and we don't really have a dope route. Yeah, I know. We have very little dope. But I'm really afraid of giving Brendan.

SPEAKER_06:

Were you a dope or were you nope? Brendan, we're having a meeting. We're having a talk. I all I heard was you guys are gonna go to Buffalo Wild Wings. I didn't say that. He did not say that. By the way, somebody would say that would say the word poopy head would go to a Buffalo Wild Wings.

SPEAKER_03:

I said, I said truffle. Oh, I'd I'd like those. I love truffles. Truffaloes.

SPEAKER_04:

Uh but uh yeah, we we're just gonna say that we hate uh doper nope, and we don't hate behind the week.

SPEAKER_03:

Uh yeah, so we hate doper doper nope. You don't hate doper nope. You don't hate doper nope!

SPEAKER_06:

I saw a glimmer in your eye. You said that's a good one. I even heard Andrew say I kind of like it. That's not what he said.

SPEAKER_03:

No, I said something different. He said he said, I kind bars like it. Guys kind bars so good.

SPEAKER_06:

Guys, if we're gonna continue this this thing of of how you guys like this awful name Poopy ahead of the week, it's going to hurt the podcast.

SPEAKER_03:

Did you hear him say that?

SPEAKER_06:

Do you I said it?

SPEAKER_03:

Do you understand it's really funny when he said it?

SPEAKER_06:

Okay, but do you understand it's going to hurt the podcast? Numbers will be affected.

SPEAKER_03:

Podcast doesn't have feelings, Brendan.

SPEAKER_05:

It only has key performance indicators.

SPEAKER_06:

Okay, well, our it's our key performance indicators will show it's no good.

SPEAKER_05:

Alright, listen. So we're gonna give Poopy Head of the Week about ten more weeks.

SPEAKER_06:

Because then people get used to it and people already tap out.

SPEAKER_03:

We have to think of something new. Alright, let's do dope or nope right now. Those videos, nope. Andrew? Nope. Brendan? The ones he played.

SPEAKER_05:

Brendan audio.

SPEAKER_03:

Dope or nope. Nope? You're right. Outvoted. It was nope. They are nope. It's nope. I thought he said I was so expecting you to say dope there because I could say outvoted.

SPEAKER_06:

Because you tried to you tried to trick me, or you didn't understand, you didn't understand the dope or nope. Dope or nope. Was the person a dope for thinking this way? Or do we disagree? Was he nope? He isn't a dope. Um and am I a am I Oh wait, wait, wait, wait.

SPEAKER_03:

Wait, are we saying what what what definition of dope are we using?

SPEAKER_06:

Alright, so look, we have we have the word poopy head of the week. Alright, get your giggles out. Pretty dope.

SPEAKER_05:

Pretty dope.

SPEAKER_06:

Nope. So if we have this term and the idea is somebody who is a an idiot that you saw somebody being an idiot, what what the person does is they send us in the the recording of somebody they saw being a dope. And it's our job to say, yes, they are a dope, or nope, not a dope.

SPEAKER_03:

See, we're a little younger than than uh clearly this generation, because we have a different d definition from of dope.

SPEAKER_06:

Oh, oh, oh. Like cool. Dope as in cool. As in cool.

SPEAKER_03:

Oh, gosh.

SPEAKER_06:

And nope as in Leslie Nope from Parks and Recreation. You know? He wasn't thinking that. Andrew wasn't thinking that. I was thinking that. No, no, no, no. You're because you're you're getting on board with Mr. Cable knit sweater over there.

SPEAKER_05:

Okay, I'm gonna I'm gonna unlatch from Jack.

SPEAKER_06:

God, I hope you don't float into the atmosphere and disappear. Whoa, Andrew, untethered.

SPEAKER_05:

Untethered. This is my feeling. That we can use dope as both. Is it dope or are they a dope or nope?

SPEAKER_03:

Dope, dope, or nope. I don't hate that. Yeah, I don't really like it. Um but guys, we have to do better than this.

SPEAKER_06:

I liked it up until three three people cannot come up with we can't have this. This is insane. This is not good, and you both know it. You both know it. Poopy head of the week is a thought that you have when you smoke joint. And you're like, it's funny with my friend. You know Jack can't smoke joints. I but Jack has no Jack was is tethered to you and he has to say it's funny. It was it's not fun. It was funny. It was funny in the moment, even the first time I heard, I was like, alright, yeah, it's funny.

SPEAKER_03:

But then when you stick with it, it's funny.

SPEAKER_06:

In a certain setting, a immature I'm high on grass setting.

SPEAKER_03:

Yeah, alright, it's funny for never struck me as immature, first of all.

SPEAKER_06:

Okay. Alright. It's ridiculous. And we all know it, and it's stupid, and our listeners deserve better. And I apologize. Okay. I'm sorry for being loud and and I'm probably the person that I'm probably the person that the the audience is not gonna like on this podcast. I already get that vibe. Why did you say that? Because I I can't say that. No, it's because I'm I I feel like I'm I'm I talk too much. I'm in I'm an annoyance, and they're gonna they're gonna the audience is gonna uh attach themselves to you guys. But I don't believe that you guys let me put on my mayorial suit. I don't believe you guys believe the word poopy head of the week is a funny word. It's it's not a word, it's a charm. It's a it's a childish phrase. Phrase. It's a childish phrase. Fellas, we could do better. We can we can 3D print a uh a bowl, we can come up with a better name than poopy head. Alright.

See, you guys are you guys you what you guys do is you take something and you twist it in a way where it it becomes like, oh, this is too confusing.

SPEAKER_03:

There's so many words for the word dope. Okay, first off, this accusation is that we balloon animal everything that comes up on the podcast is You do balloon animal. We don't balloon animal. We do a regular blow. If we balloon animal, we're making snakes. Strain snakes. Nothing's twisted.

Okay. They have caffeinated wings now at Buffalo Wilds. I think this was a great episode, guys. This was a lot of fun. I think it was our best yet. Um we're finding our flow. We we had great flow this episode. It was it was great. Um I started to after I peed, I lost the flow because I think I peed out some of the beer. Some of the flow.

SPEAKER_06:

Some of the beer, yeah, but I think what happened was we kept it afloat. And I know I know you didn't think that that was possible.

SPEAKER_03:

No, I knew that that was I knew that that was possible. That's why I felt comfortable relieving myself.

It's a it's just a lot of fun. Same hands. I just like seeing you guys, you know? Me too. Um it's it's good to get together and and and to talk it out.

SPEAKER_03:

Dope or nope, that's what it was. It's a dope dope or something. It's not really remember, it's not really a memorable title, but well, you know what?

SPEAKER_06:

It is it keeps people listening. It's not a turnoff title.

SPEAKER_03:

So you um so I guess we'll kind of have to, I guess, really discuss on our own um uh separately what the this segment's gonna be, but um just send in send in stories, voice memos, emails of like just a situation that we can dissect, and maybe we could say if it was dope or nope, or if the guy that you know uh cut you off and yelled at you uh is a dope or not.

SPEAKER_05:

Yeah. Is he a dope or is he nope? Or is he dope?

SPEAKER_03:

Yeah, dope or dope. Maybe that's it.
