Kylie Kelce on Kid Meltdowns, Dude Gift Advice, Japanese Maples & New Heights Secret Santa | EP 172

36:36A.K.A. Jason. I'm pretty sure if I would have gotten. I want to have a legit match. If I would have got. That's what I thought I was going for. I came away a little bit disappointed. She got closer to the bullseye? I don't think so. I think his throw was better. I think they gave me a I think that I was given a consolation almost like a participation trophy situation but I have full faith that because I am more flexible than him by leaps and bounds I will say my knee was hurt doing a full game I don't know I've been able to walk And we did how many? We did like five, six throws? Yeah, maybe. You knew you were going curling and didn't bring a diclofenac?

37:30That was him warming up. Gotta activate the glutes. Gotta activate the glutes, kids. Gotta get them glutes firing. Look at this guy. Oh, my God. What a fucking guy. All right, we're going to start. All right, hold on real quick. I get to go over here and warm up. That's exactly what happened. Oh, we're starting? my bad i'm not ready god damn it that's hilarious no i do want travis we've talked about curling a bunch everyone was talking about the um the facility that jared allen has down in nashville yeah where it's like a recreational it's like almost like a bowling alley for like curling and he's big into the curling community and sport now i think it'd be a blast to do curling while we were there that there's a curling club 20 minutes from our house well i knew about it why didn't you tell me i was about to say it sounds like you're a shorter than sue falls but no i'm in and i i may or may not i dude i really think go to get you give me like a couple more throws i'm actually getting private lessons for crowley we can be being competitive in this and trav you give us a couple more throws i mean we're not like an olympics but i think i could I can hold my own in the Philadelphia League.

38:48I feel very confident about that. You just told everybody you don't know if you'd be able to do a full game. Yeah, but I mean... I'll complain about it the next day. I'll figure it out. There you go. Well, that's fun. I've always wanted to do curling. Curling was always at the Cleveland Skating Club. Yep. Did they have full ice or they did it on regular ice? No, they had like curling ice. That's cool. Yep. Wait, what? There's different ice? Well, that's what we were talking about. It's pebbled, and then there's like... So regular ice is flat, right? It's just ice, like hockey ice. Curling is like purposely like they spray it with like a hose to give it this pebbled texture.

39:32And that helps control, and the rocks actually slide further with the pebbling. It like doesn't... Less friction. It doesn't have as much friction to it. And then the sweeping makes a bigger difference with the pebbles because then you're like slowly... You shouldn't do that. Gesture solo. Pebbles? No. Sweeping. You're sweeping down here. Sweeping. Sweeping.

39:57Children. Well, that's fun. You went back to beautiful Sioux Falls, South Dakota. Did you see Mount Rushmore while you were there? No. I forgot how far it is. It was a four-hour hike west. An old sat Dakota. We did look it up before we left. Yeah. Nice. No, we did not go to Mount Rushmore. We just did the curling. You know, the old tale is there's a treasure somewhere around Mount Rushmore. Is that a National Treasure reference? I was going to say, is that? Was Nicolas Cage looking for it? I'm trying to remember. Was Mount Rushmore a National Treasure? I remember that. Yeah, it was. I think it was like the second one, maybe.

40:39I was going to say. I was going to say, it definitely wasn't the first one. I think the first one was Philadelphia Declaration of Independence, wasn't it? Liberty Bell? The first one was Independence. There was definitely Philadelphia references, but I think when he actually got into that little area, I don't think that was Philadelphia. I'm pretty sure he stole the Declaration of Independence, which is in Philadelphia. No, it's not.

41:13I am with Jason on this one. I do believe it has since been signed and then taken to Washington. I'm pretty sure. I know the Independence Hall where they signed it is in Philly, but I think where it's held is in D.C. Constitution Ave. Actually. Sorry. Sorry. Just kidding. We got the Liberty Bell, though. They let us keep the new Capitol. They let us keep the broken bell. Guys, history was never my strong suit. I don't claim history. Who knows if it's the truth or not, you know? I heard Nicolas Cage still has the O.J. Declaration of Independence. That would be pretty badass. He's still spraying.

41:59He's got lemon juice all over it. God damn, that movie was so good. Wow. It was a good one. Why does the Declaration of Independence smell like Lysol?

42:13what's the woman that did the Lysol commercials oh Pam Pam wasn't it Pam I'm trying to see one of these old fucking Lysol commercials I don't know I'm getting the image of the Lysol commercial lady in the Declaration of Independence I think it sounds funny I don't know why this is the next Garage Beer commercial Yeah, this might be. Ooh. Here we go. We're going to put garage beer lime on the Declaration of Independence. Dallas City garage beer lime. That's brilliant. That's brilliant. What does it decode? It shows us where the national beer treasure is. Golden rye. What do you make it with? Wheat?

43:08Golden wheat. Ooh. Kaizen. to it a field of golden wheat talking about hops hops thank you barley i don't fucking drink beer why the fuck would i know what it's made out of it's fair why am i getting these like i can't find this lysol convert you've been thinking of the pine saw lady this whole time pine saw thank you so much i've been sitting here just like biting my tongue for you to find it but it's the pine saw lady you know it and it's not even like it's not even lemon is it i'm sure they have a lemon. Lysol is what every NFL locker room has next to the can. Pine Sol. Oh, here he goes. I think we can just, I think we can let this one go until later.

43:49Nope. Alright, here we go. Do you want to plug the curling episode? It comes out in February, I was told by Emma. Do you want to plug that? Yeah, I'll plug whatever Emma tells me to do. So when does the curling episode come out? The FAFO episode of us with the, we were curling at the U.S. Olympic trials comes out in February. Nice. In February. Just in time for the Winter Olympics. That's a long time. How timely. It's like Queen Emma lined that up on purpose. I think she did. Good job, Queen Emma. Well, I can't wait to see you guys on the ice. the last time I saw Kylie on the ice it wasn't too smooth in Kansas City on skates weird it's around this time of year I thought we weren't going to bring that up it wasn't pebble you looked way smoother on the ice right there let me be clear it's pebble Travis you have I don't know what it is but whenever we try winter sports we're with you you were with us when we were skiing in aspen we were together ice skating in kansas city yep none of which have gone in my favor that it's not it hasn't gone in my favor whatsoever it's not a not a winter sports i my feet went out from under me like i stepped on a fucking banana it was straight out of the shoulders over toes It was straight out of a cartoon.

45:26Like, woo, right out from under me. It'll get you. Thank God. It'll get you. I was wearing like a full puffer coat. Mm-hmm. Get your sleeping bag. And ice. That's a very underrated thing that people don't realize. Ice is harder than concrete. It hurts. For those of you that don't know. It hurts your ego. Hurt your ass. Hurt your pride. I mean, so we've got a lot already. Do we want to do kid fights? What is the kid fights thing? We had people send in the dumbest fights I've ever had with their child. I like that. I'm very in on. I thought you were talking about children fighting children. I was going to say our children didn't, they don't really fist fight, but I will tell you.

46:03They fight all the time. No, they like fight, but they don't get into like a full fist fight. Well, they're kids. And the best part was, is that your mom came in. Yeah. And she taught them how to, what is that called? The leg thing. I have no idea what you're talking about. She had them lay down opposite each other. Oh, the leg wrestling, yeah. Ooh. Yeah. I walked in and I was like. That's an old school move. I don't even know if mom even taught us that. Yeah. I vaguely remember that. Our dad used to actually sit us down in the living room and just have us wrestle. Yeah. Which went great for me.

46:40I threw on, like, rules. Yeah. Like, we would have one person, okay, you're down this time. You're on all fours. Your hand's got to be here. Grab his elbow. All right, go. I got fucked. It was the worst. I've been teaching Ellie the headbutt. As if the poor child needs any more head trauma. We just headbutt each other. Nice. Poor Ellie. Thank you to our partner, DraftKings Pick 6.

49:37Wow. Wow. The story that I heard was that Travis is not fully to blame. Well, yeah. Who told you that? I heard there was some convincing. Convincing? Right? That's not going to hold up in a court of law. Convincing, yeah. Oh, I wasn't going to shoot him in the head, but my friend told me it was a good idea. But you were there. I was there. I was at the crime scene. You were at the crime scene. I was loving the crime scene. You were witnessing every bit of me walking up to that car and putting the keys in there and then somehow getting that thing into neutral at the age of three or four, maybe?

50:17Maybe five? We were still at the old house, so it had to be. Yeah. I think I was five when we moved to the Heights. It was four or five, I bet. Yeah. Impressive. As someone with a four-year-old, very impressive. And to say I drove the car through the garage is a bit aggressive. Did you bump the door? I turned the key. I don't even know if the engine started. It just jumped. I think you turn the key, everything turns on, and then put it in neutral. Okay. And then it just rolled, and the weight of the car broke the door on the garage. Sure. Yeah. I didn't. I wasn't smart enough. Yeah, to like put that thing in drive and be like, let's do this.

51:04All right. Let's get back to Jay Richardson's question. Six-year-old nephew had a meltdown because what do we – are we saying how we would handle a six-year-old driving car? Yeah, what would you tell your kids if they insisted they could and should be able to drive the car? Do you just let them, you know? I'd give them the keys. I'm kidding. Let's see how good you are at this. And then when they almost kill themselves. No. Okay. I would, if it really got to a point where you were at a stalemate, I would, without the keys in the car, invite the child to sit in the front seat and have that, like, even if you got to put the seat all the way down and all the way back first.

51:43Nice. I would allow them to be like, yeah, like, Hey, you can't see the road from here and you can't reach the pedals. How are you going to drive? This is a grownup job. Nice. I don't know. If it was really a stalemate. But our girls are pretty respectful about the idea of like a grown up. That's a grown up thing to do. They're not. Our kids aren't the big aren't very fearless. They're very fearful right now. We're still in that stage. Like they start screaming if they haven't buckled their seatbelts yet, which is new to me. You want to be a loser wants their seatbelt on in the back. You should be lying to me.

52:19You should be telling me it's buckled and then you don't have it buckled. That's what. That's what a kid does. No. wear your seatbelts kids i would say i would say being the one that doesn't have any kids why don't you give them just like one of those little like uh go-karts give them the keys says uncle trav the only problem is she still terrified to even get behind the wheel she's fearful i think why it drove it on the other driveway yeah yeah why i tried to put it at the max speed she was not having it no don't put it you can't put it on the rabbit you got to put it at the tortoise what is i was gonna say what's two what how fast that thing's going it's not i mean it was definitely like when you hit the pedal it was like oh like a little bit a little bit a little bit she didn't like that um she'll get used to it i've seen jason throw her down the the car slide where you put her in the uh the little chair and roller coaster yeah that that's going way faster than anything for sure Absolutely.

53:21But try and rationalize that to them. They don't have a lot of rational thoughts. I can't even spell rationalize to them. Let alone tell them about it. Six-year-old nephew had a meltdown because he insisted he should be able to drive the car. Yeah. Yeah. Well, start playing music loud and just get to your next destination, I guess. All right. To the next one, Marion Beattie. My four-year-old had a meltdown because the time on his watch kept changing. lasting lasted one hour yeah yeah we're all getting older it's uh it's a harsh reality i'm i'm gonna fucking what four-year-old has a fucking watch what are we talking about i'm so confused about this travis literally gave wyatt a watch yeah but she doesn't wear it or know what time she can't tell time months straight to be fair she wore it even when it wasn't charged which was hilarious to me because i've got to pull my watch and i'm like sure do yeah you do it's accessory both for styling and telling time yes you would have no idea what the time changing or i'm just so confused like is this baby's like it's actually seven o 'clock oh it's like i don't no i think the fact that i'm assuming i'm assuming that this was an alarm watch this can't be happening my life is over it's going so fast what time's the train getting here like what are we talking about i don't think this thing i think that these things are the equivalent of if you cut a sandwich wrong you know yeah it's just like getting them out of their uh comfort zone it's just like that's not what they wanted yes and typically with especially a four year old you're talking about they have a firm opinion on something they that's exactly how they want it not so how we handle this my four-year-old had a meltdown because the time on his watch kept changing just take the batteries out yeah take the batteries out keep changing it back this one seems like a pretty simple one to solve yeah just keep winding that thing back teach him how to wind it backwards yeah exactly oh you don't want it to change it time is relevant it's hard to know what watch.

55:35Time is relative. Yeah, right? Let me tell you about a person in mind, Albert Einstein. Let me tell you about time. Time is relative. That's about all I know about the theory of relativity. The theory of relativity will go down a rabbit hole. If you run fast enough, this watch will actually go back. Let me put a little movie on. It's called Back to the Future. not even cloud teaches better than i can there we go oh man i don't have the kids glued all right that's a classic the next one buy the book at pa papa's books all right this morning my nine-year-old uh called me a fat bitch and proceeded to try to run away because we were forcing her to go to the dentist.

56:25Nice. Wow. How are you guys handling getting called a fat bitch? If I... No comment. I got to keep this one in-house. Oh, man. Nine-year-old, too. I always swore to Donna Kelsey one time. There's a reason. And I saw that one time and I never did it. I said, mother fuck. And then before that curl came out, she laid it across oh yeah i in my they were mom was not a hitter no no no i think that's the only time i was struck by mom you only need to be sure i know i need to have it once i'm like all right i'm sorry mom i didn't what were you referring to as a motherfucker i don't know i think i just learned the i don't remember it that well i got a concussion

57:18oh my god i have to be honest about that nine seems nine seems like aggressive that's what that's like fifth fifth grade about fourth fifth grade yeah fourth man this is what i would do this is what i would do if my nine-year-old called me a fat bitch i'll say santa santa just heard you and give him some gold. You think Santa's going to accept that?

57:48We're going to see who's a fat no-having presents bitch on Christmas.

57:59oh no oh my god yeah dude it's just the dentist that's all we're doing we're just going to the dentist The dentist was always a good time for me and Jason. Well, that's because we went straight to the popcorn shop afterwards every time. It was actually candy. Yeah, we got candy to enjoy later. That's right. After the fluoride treatment ran out. Yeah, after we would play video games for 30 minutes in the waiting room. Yeah. Freaking Mrs. Dr. Hall had the freaking, what was Mrs. Hall's doctor name? Her maiden name? I forget. Her doctor name. I forget it, man. I feel like an idiot. it anyways yeah that practice was great it had like a nintendo then upped it to a super nintendo they had a nintendo 64 out in the waiting room we only had highlights magazines we had those she had a good it was it was and where's waldo books we all was waldo on the ceiling yeah really uh maybe not on the ceiling but there were in the there was like in the thing the i spy books though everybody had already circled every travis is like somebody else did that yeah somebody got to it before i did wasn't it you no i would have though i would have ruined it for everybody all right yeah i don't really know what else to say old nine feels nine feels old to have to reprimand them for first of all what do you mean i mean like when our kids say something they shouldn't say right now it's soap in your mouth soap in your mouth nice so what are you saying with a nine how are you supposed to put soap in a nine-year-old's mouth i mean i suppose you could yep i mean they might i mean nine-year-old why it's six it's only three more years you're right you're right you just got to scare them another way you got to scare them into where that leads to like you keep calling people fat bitches you're going to prison you got to take them to prison you got to show them what prison looks like we did nine-year-old is not nine-year-old we did have to explain to why it the other day what like what the meaning of fat is she did not like my explanation here's about nine years old tell the people what your explanation so she asked what does fat mean and i said well fat is a layer of your skin i said everybody has fat it's all over your body it's in your face it's in your legs it's all over everybody has fat she was like yeah but what does it mean and i knew what she meant she meant if i were to call someone fat what does that mean yeah yeah like what am i what am i calling them yeah and why do they not like it yeah and why is that terribly mean uh and so then i said what do you think fat means and she said like chubby and i was like yeah that can also mean that um and she was like okay and i was like but you don't call people that you can talk about the fat on your body but you don't you don't say that about somebody else and she was like uh-huh it was it was it was not it doesn't seem promising but we'll see and also calling someone fat is completely different than calling someone a fat bitch to be fair Wyatt uh Wyatt test drove the word bitch a couple times did you not well Well, the one time I do remember she used it in proper context, which wasn't difficult.

1:01:23Ellie was inside the house and Wyatt was closing the front door. And she went, bitch. And closed it really slowly and said it at the same time. That's so good. And as soon as I opened the door, she was like, sorry. And immediate buyer's remorse. Immediate. Yeah. Because she knew what was coming. It was a bar of soap. Did you give her the bar of soap or no? I don't know that she got it that time because she had buyer's remorse very quickly, but she has gotten it before, which is why she knows I'm not joking about a bar of soap. Nice. You can't do empty threats. That's what you can't do with a kid.

1:01:58You can't do that. Well, this is my thing. It's a waste of time. I don't know if a nine-year-old is too old for a bar of soap, but it's not a two-year-old to strike fear into. For sure. I mean, I would maybe go so far as to look up pictures of people without their dentures in and see how she feels about that. be like this is what happens we're gonna have to address we're gonna have to address the fat bitch thing before we get to the dentist i just feel like the fat bitch thing probably listen here you short fuck get the fuck upstairs you're a timeout

1:02:35uh yeah also nine is such an awkward age like what do they have that you can take away everything what is their freedom everything air jam you're entitled to take away all of it yeah god damn that's good fat bitch and like the crazy part is is that child heard it somewhere god i could hurt it anywhere nine-year-old has access to the internet like well timeout they don't have access to the internet a lot of nine-year-olds nowadays have access to the internet hours that's pretty scary i think i think they can hear it at school they could hear it on like a tv thing probably at school yeah nine-year-olds yikes fat bitch is so nasty that is so aggressive yeah i'm not a huge fan of the word bitch like unless it's in a playful way i just don't i don't think it holds a lot of weight yeah you call it you call a fat bitch by your kid i'm gonna say that i get called a bitch off that's gonna be like you know what Sometimes I wear it.

1:03:39Not funny. All right. My daughter, four years old, throwing a fit because her brother, six, flushed his poop before she could see. I mean, that's a very – I get told every time I'm wiping Betty's ass, don't flush the toilet. I want to look at it, which I understand. I'm 38 years old, and I still look at my shit before I flush it. You got to make sure what's coming out. it's just proper like hygiene and it's important to understand if you got shit issues you gotta know you gotta know you gotta don't flush it but yo you gotta take a look at that shit yeah you gotta see how you're i'm kind of with i'm kind of with the four-year-old being upset about this i will tell you i have an embarrassing number of shits in my camera roll that our child let me let me clarify they're from children uh when i've sent them to jason when we were potty training then like i would be like hey look at that that shit on that shit in a toilet that's what happens when mom's at the house mission accomplished yeah so i did realize that the other day that my my camera roll has a that's some good shit in it a good eight to ten photos of a toilet yeah yeah i'm gonna tell you i'm i'm with the four-year-old on this one i think you need to remember in the six-year-old what the fuck you doing flushing that shit before anybody's taking a look at it all right that's no no no if it's damaged it was his shit four-year-old throwing a fit should have been able to see she wanted to see his shit and he flushed it my brother my daughter four-year-old throwing a fit because her brother flushed his shit yes for oh well yeah i mean that's not your business all right now i kind of get it now i kind of get it all right i can't that's his business you just gotta say like listen everybody's shit is their own shit you can't be getting your involved with other people's bathroom you get privacy everybody knows that you get your own only you get to look at that shit you have to handle your own shit you can yeah yes there's only a few places in this world that you get to be just with your thoughts and your shit and the bathroom is one of them yes it's so bad all right well it is the holidays so let's get to a little christmas let's talk some christmas here with kai um kai can you help us with the new heights gift guide for dudes who can't shop good sure nice uh we'll give you a genre of gift and you tell us good bad trash awesome idea for the fellas that are listening to the show all right our first one we're just gonna rapid fire these things makeup good bad what do you like should we be buying makeup for you should we be buying makeup for women for women for women if they enjoy it i think it's very obvious when a woman enjoys makeup you can determine that on for me no don't fucking buy me should men just be buying makeup without knowing the specific makeup no but you can go into uh certain makeup stores and look up their account based on their phone number and know what their frequently shopped things are wow there you go boys that feels like stalkerish or good gift giving i mean it does it's a great strategy i just i'm i feel like it's actually kind of brilliant but i feel like that's an invasion of my privacy by these companies i mean maybe they won't like you but i think that they will all right well you try next one anything health or fitness related that's a true is it a fat bitch it does feel a little fat bitchy uh hey look at this treadmill you fat bitch

1:07:29uh you're asking the wrong person because i would say yes i would i was gonna say if you've got like a peloton or something cool like that women right of everyone um so i would go with more general not just more general i would say unless she explicitly asked for it absolutely not no absolutely not unless she asked for that no like health health related i feel like there's some in there that won't feel like you're trying to send a signal yeah i was gonna say but what if you are trying to send a signal? Well, listen, sometimes don't, don't period. What if you'd write on the card? We could work out together.

1:08:08Can't wait to use this as well.

1:08:14I'm telling you right now. You go first though. You get her. You also buy her a set of, you also buy her a set of pants that are a size smaller with the, card that says you can do it a little extra motivation

1:08:41no aggressively no all right gift cards uh if it's to a store that you know that she shops yes i think yeah i i think some women might find this to be a little impersonal but i think it depends on the relationship with the person you're getting the gift agreed but also with online shopping then she's guaranteed to get something she wants and it'll come right to her door i just feel like if you it's somebody special i wouldn't roll into the holidays with just a gift card that's a good man right there it's good best advice jason's ever given right there yes honestly um what about just nice clothing um sure i don't see why not i would air like a funny t-shirt you can also send some signals there airing smaller or bigger smaller that would make you more mad yeah i if you get me something i actually want to wear it and if i want to wear it i would rather it be too big than too small i am in the minority don't do that i was about to say i think you're sending bad advice right now i'm giving bad advice don't do that yeah if you're gonna go for clothing i would I would say you get the exact size.

1:09:51You think I'm a 20? Oh, my God. He doesn't even know. He doesn't even know. He literally has no idea. He picked a random number. Let's be honest. Women's sizes don't make any sense. They don't. Men's size is the actual circumference of our waist. Yes. Or diameter. Yes. What are women's sizes? They're just arbitrary numbers that make them feel better? They're different at every store, in every brand. Makes no sense. It doesn't make any sense at all. All right. She's a size 34 waist. What should we say? That's a four. Yeah. Just drop the three.

1:10:27Get that three out of here. We got to get this into single digits. Some pants are, I believe. Yeah. Those are the kind I like. I think some pants are similar to men, but then there's others that are two through 20 something. So there are women's pants that have the same sizing as men? I'm proud of that. Go waist size? Just make it the fucking summer. It's all brand specific stuff, yeah. It is. It's so dumb. What about scented candles? Yes, I would love a scented candle, but we're not allowed to burn them in our house. I'm anti-candles. Jewelry, jewelry. How do I feel about jewelry? You're anti-candles.

1:11:07No, I don't like chemicals just being burned and thrust into the air for me to be breathing in all day to get fucking brain cancer. oh my god that is quite the stance yeah i'm not i don't think it makes any sense why would i want some artificial fucking flower thing in the air that some person made in a lab from some combination of vegetable this and that and this essence i don't want it in my face okay although i do like the charcoal uh deodorant i do like deodorant i'm charcoal uh cologne i'll go that but the he doesn't send a candle it's just like no you don't like perfume perfumes either i'm not when we first started dating it was like i don't like lipstick i don't like perfume i don't like scented candles and i was like well i don't wear lipstick i barely wear you're making this seem like i was giving you ultimatums this is not how this went down you got into natural discussion and i just said that i'm not a fan that's true that's true i'll give you that and now benny just puts lipstick on all day and all day i fucking love benny um jewelry the gift that we thought to give our mother every birthday and christmas in particular earrings yes the jewelry part was not the issue she eventually had is the problem is she eventually had 50 pairs of earrings to be fair i feel like your mom mixes up her jewelry quite a bit yeah is that a now thing or is was out of when you were growing up because i'd be lying to you if i told you i think it's a now thing she might i remember she was always like presentable and looked nice she's like now i've got all these fucking earrings i might as well i think that's what it is yeah i think she just over the over time she's just kind of accumulated yep she's usually not a good idea most women don't like jewelry god uh jewelry is a great idea is there is there there's varying degrees of jewelry 100 is there a bad degree of jewelry like would you get something from like like oh this is not it yeah don't get mad uh i don't know that i would be mad i just think that if it's going to turn your skin green probably don't get it as a gift skin green that's a thing women know what i'm talking about yeah and also they shouldn't be selling those things no they shouldn't but they do so let's avoid them is there how long into a relationship is there like a time frame that you should be in a relationship before you go the jewelry route or is jewelry always like acceptable i feel like it's jewelry is like the opposite of gift cards do you think gift cards you can go in a very like low level relationship maybe just a friendly co-worker relationship nice gift card if you show up with like a really nice pair of jewelry to a co-worker that's gonna send some I was going to send some fucking high alert.

1:14:02He had to bring up love, actually. High alert. I didn't even realize. Well, that was, he was getting a necklace to the, what was it, secretary? Secretary. Yep. Yeah. Well, you shouldn't be buying anything. I think there's a great spectrum of jewelry that I think that you can hit any time in a relationship. Like, you could get a cute pair of little studs for someone, and that's sufficient. What about like kitchen appliances? I will say one of Tay's favorite gifts that I got her was the bread slicer. Oh, nice. Because she's been throwing together so much fucking sourdough. Gosh. I've got the best gut health there is.

1:14:43I love you, Tay. And it is true. Like one of the unfortunate things with making fresh bread is trying to cut that shit. It is hard. The slicer makes a big deal. Yeah. More importantly, the responsibility to eat it. What? Oh, no. That's the easy part. I take it upon myself to crush it as fast as possible. Yeah. And that's probably not great. No, it's fresh. Yeah. Bread, if it's not like, if it hasn't been like - No preservatives. The preservatives in there and made shelf stable. No, it's healthy. It's so good. What about like beauty products like red light masks and like - Red light. Exfoliating creams.

1:15:25He has no idea what you're talking about. I think that those, the people who would love receiving those gifts, you are going to be able to tell. Because you can go into their bathroom and see that they have the exfoliators and all of the different night serums and all of that. The mist, the face mist. Yes. If you know their beauty routine, their nighttime routine is a lengthy one, this is probably the category for you on gift. Nice. Because some of those products are expensive. Yeah. So you're turning back time. Yep. You are. How do you feel about a mug with like world's best mom on it? I'm pretty sure your dad got me that.

1:16:04That's a bit of Ed Kelsey staple, I think. With pictures of like a picture of our family on it. Nope. That's an Ed Kelsey staple right there. You go to the local screen printing shop and you'll get some mugs made. I love it. It's in our cabinet right now. This is not a joke. I said that. We have it in our cabinet right now.

1:27:40Why would somebody with a BBL need to sit on a cushion? I don't even think they're allowed to sit on their ass. I think they have to lay down. That's the joke of when all the people who get BBLs come back on the plane, they're all laying down. That's only for, like, well, it's healing. Once it's healed, it's like you got a permanent seat cushion. You got a permanent cushion. Let me tell you about all the research I've done into BBLs. Yeah. You just take the outdoor furniture, you just take the cushion off because you got the BBL. You don't need the cushion. You already got the cushion added. So bad.

1:28:10Do you think when they sit on, if you have a BBL and you sit on. Brandon actually highlighted it. It says Jason. It's always highlighted. Yeah. If you sit on your BBL on like a cold steel bench, do you think you feel it or do you think it's? Yes. I think you do, yeah. They're not killing the nerves when they do it. Yeah, but does it insulate in some ways or something like that? You got an insulated ass? I don't. I don't have a BBL. That's the evolution. You got the heater and cooler coming in next. they're going to have bbl ac and heat coolers heat seats like in the car you can just press the button on which one you want it to be that's going to be the next evolution of bbls it has turn signals on it it comes with an app and you can turn your heated seat on and your face my bbl is wi-fi enabled it's a hot spot can i can you get your ass over here real quick i'm trying to look at it's got a it's got a potpourri uh built in whenever you fart it just scorch potpourri out with it this is why this thing yeah you've ever you've ever been shocked that this podcast

1:29:44that is fucking brilliant between the the the ac and heat seats yep and the potpourri yeah dude that's a fucking themselves i might get one i might get one never was interested i didn't i wasn't doing it for the look of it but i mean if it's coming with all these You ever sat on a heated seat when it's cold out, it's nice. And I can have that at any time I wanted. I can't.
