In short

The Basement Yard episode #549 is a rambling food-and-body-habit conversation that spirals into debates about family portraits, bread (including non and sourdough), pasta “sandwich” traditions, pancake styles, brunch timing (mimosas as the deciding factor), jello shots logistics, and finally nose-picking (“picking your nose is cool”) with gross-out details about bloody noses and tissue removal.

Guests

Frank (regular host/guest) and Ant (regular host/guest). They discuss their own upbringings and habits (family portrait experiences, childhood eating, allergies, and food preferences). No other named guests appear in the transcript.

Key claims

  • “Mimosas” define brunch; without them it’s still breakfast/lunch depending on time.
  • Non bread is cooked in a way that makes it especially appealing.
  • Pancakes: the “classic” style is best; waffles are preferred by one speaker.
  • Jello shots: they’ve done hundreds before (600 mentioned; 100 also mentioned).
  • Nose-picking is framed as enjoyable and even “cool,” despite acknowledging it’s gross/unsightly.

Notable examples

  • Family portrait stories: sailor costume/baby photos; props like rocks; planning a new shoot for a mom’s birthday.
  • Food examples: spaghetti-in-bread “elbow” sandwiches; ketchup sandwiches; bread-and-milk “taco” style.
  • Nose examples: tissue “jam” during bloody noses; crusty aftermath; comparing the first inhale to an intense sensation.

0:00For decades, a shadowy organization called the Lemonati has kept lemon on top and lime in the shadows. Look around, lemon forward sodas, even lemon forward songs. We ran the tracks, slowed them down, reversed them, and squeezed out the truth.

0:20That's lemon propaganda right there. But now 7up is fighting back with their new lime lemon soda. Join the 7up rising. Flip the sip. Welcome back to the ba -

0:36Welcome back to the basement yard. I'm here with Frank who just told Ant he's a beautiful boy multiple times in a row. What was that about? What a good looking boy. What a beautiful boy. I didn't stop. You did say it. You said it. He does this to us all the time. My beautiful boys when we walk in. So I decided to place it right back to him. I gave him a beautiful boy. You gave him two, but the second one was like, fucking beautiful. Yeah, you literally did. I mean, I'm in admiration. I think he's a good looking guy. I want to make sure that I give him the proper credit where credit is due. When you do that, that sucks.

1:11I'll tell you that. You didn't like that? You didn't like this? What is that? Yeah. I don't know. That was cute. Did you guys do family portraits growing up? Yeah, I did. You did? Like white people? For real? Yeah, I think so. I know, but I'm white too. I think I did one when I was like a baby. I remember the baby one of you. You're in like an old-timey sailor's costume or some shit. Yeah, I look like I own a cereal company or something. Like it was, yeah, me and Keith for like Easter, my mom would dress us up like cabbage bash dolls or something. Yeah, Becca's parents did that too. I remember when we were buying our house, her mom like gave her like a basket full of like, these were your baby clothes.

1:49And it was like, it looked like it was made out of yarn from fucking Michaels. Yeah, yeah. Like these people are on the Titanic. Like that's what it kind of looks like. Well, they lived out in Oregon, so they were as close to living on the Oregon Trail hippies as you could possibly be. How old were you? Do you still do family portraits? No. When did you think you stopped it? Stopped it. It was just me and my sister. I don't think my parents joined in. That's not a family portrait at all. It was before your brothers? It was before my brothers, so I was young. But they wouldn't be in the photos with you?

2:23I think they got in for a couple, but I just distinctly remember just the ones with me and my sisters. I was holding roses. I was in a white button down. Oh, shit. You were doing Macy's type of shit? I mean, I did them as an adult. Did you? Yeah. You don't remember that, like, the picture in my house? I, like... Oh, right. Yeah, but that was just you. No. Oh, you all were in that. That's right. We all had them. And there was another one, like, we were... Because we did it for, like, Christmas one year. My sister organized it, and she was like, let's get playful with it. So there was, like... Because you go to these places and they have like props that you can use.

2:53So one was like a rock. So I like went on the rock and like kicked my feet up. Did you do family portraits like every year growing up? No, no, no, no. I remember we did them like as babies. I don't remember it as babies, but I know we did it as babies. You do family portraits right now. Like portraits is a stretch. We're not like going to a studio to do them. But you're like outside. There's a photographer. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We do a photo shoot. Yeah, photo shoot. Yeah, like a portrait. I guess, I guess, I guess, I guess. When does that stop, do you think? Selfishly? I hope never. Right. Like, I hope we have them every year forever.

3:27I'm sure the kids are going to get to a certain point where it's like, they don't want to do this anymore. Yeah. It's weird that this is coming up because you brought this up, right? Because I'm literally, we are booked for a family fortune. My sister organized it for my mom's birthday. So we're doing one, like, next month. And for the first time in, like, I couldn't even tell you. That's going to be fun. First of all, that's going to be the greatest gift your mom has ever had. She's going to cry. Prepare a weeping. I mean, she's not going to cry at the photo shoot. No, no, no. After when she gets them.

3:58She might. She probably will. She's hit or miss sometimes. Really? She's so like, she'll cry at stuff that I'm like, this? But then other stuff she wants. She'll be like, oh my God, this is so nice. What's the 100 % guarantee you know you can make your mom cry with it if you show her, have her listen to it, see it, whatever? I don't know if I have an answer to that. I don't know. I don't know. Because sometimes, like, she gets me. Every time she cries, I cry. But, like, it's so hard to tell when it's going to get her emotional because she's, like, really, like, Irish and strong about certain things.

4:38Well, she was raised Irish Catholic, which is, like, you better not cry and you better believe that. No. But like even my grandma was like, like my aunt, her daughter had passed away before her. And she was just like a G at the thing. And I'm like, dude, this is crazy. I mean, she definitely cried when we first got there. And that was like the most heartbreaking thing I've ever seen. But then after that, like during the wake, she was just like chilling. And I'm like, how is she doing this? I mean, that's a different generation. Yeah. She was feeling it. They're numb. Dude, they would go to school.

5:05They do cursive. You can't figure it out. And the teacher would beat the shit out of you with a ruler. Well, school back then was like also like a schoolhouse near the quarry. You know, like they didn't have, I'm talking to your grandmother's age. Yeah. I don't even know what you're talking about. Well, I'm saying back then, it's like they also had a hard time getting to and from school. It'd be like three years old. They'd be like, all right, time to go to school. Walk five miles. I think that maybe I'm making this up, but maybe she went to St. Francis. Your grandmother? Yeah, I think so. Bro, your grandmother was older than fucking sliced bread.

5:38There's no way. No, no. Look up when sliced bread was invented. I think it was in like the 30s. It was after Betty White. So then my grandma was like 20. My grandmother was 26. I remember that. She might have been 29. I remember that because we had her 75th birthday party. I've told this story and it landed on what year? 2001. Yep. Sliced bread was invented in 1928. Yeah, dude. Ooh, close. I don't know when her birthday was, to be honest. I mean, my grandmother was definitely alive before sliced bread. That's so weird. That is weird. So think about it. That means that. What the fuck were they eating?

6:12Just loaves? I kind of like a loaf. Dude, cutting your own bread is kind of cool. Cutting, bro. You got to rip that bitch. No. We got like a bread cutter. No. And it's like an old timey wheel. It's kind of fucking cool, dude. How does that work? It's like you put like, it's like a deli slicer. Ah. And like you adjust the like. Yeah. Girth. Thickness. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's what I was looking for. I mean, tomato, tomato, right? I mean, sure. It is. and you just like you push it through and you crank it and then they're just like it slices off it's fucking nice i'm ripping a bread though you like like it like when aladdin ripped that bread oh my god you know what i low-key like you know when you take the elbow off of an italian bread and i like to dig it out like yes and then i just have like a little hat oh what we would do is when we would have like pasta night we would get the italian bread we'd fight my brothers and I would fight over who would get the ends because then you dig it out and you just fucking stuff it full of spaghetti and then you have like a spaghetti sandwich oh you would shove the elbow full of spaghetti hell yeah dude oh I don't know if I've ever done that dude some of the elbows are hard I mean it's hard elbow it's tough you you grew up in a big pasta house I remember your mom making a lot of pasta okay but I'm saying like you never did pasta sandwiches or anything pasta sandwiches no i don't think so i would ask what's a pasta sandwich just that or pasta sandwich was you know like you had pasta but you take a slice of white bread or like you take a fucking end of italian bread and you just put you put the pasta in it baby i know i never i never did that oh i mean she would make a fucking meatball palm every now and then your mom made the meatballs oh my god my mom used to make meatballs like every other day that was i I remember meatballs.

8:07I remember pasta. I know you often bring up your mom's broccoli. Oh, my God. But, dude, there's nothing better than just a slice of white bread and you just some fucking wet spaghetti with some red sauce and you hold it like a taco. Yeah. Hear me out. With a cup of whole milk.

8:27So good, dude. That is so insane. That is the most like – like I would never eat that in this year. Why? Because that's it. I mean, one, whole milk is bananas. I mean, you could have a cup of whole milk and exist. You drank like three quarters of a gallon for the hot one. That was out of survival. I mean, I was not going to live if that didn't happen. If we walked into Joe's apartment and he was eating that, we would. What are you doing? You know what I have done? I would be very excited. You know what I have? There's no way. I mean, I could be eating anything and he would fucking scream at me.

8:58But do you know what I have done that's absolutely disgusting? But like I was desperate. it when we were younger and we'd be in Connecticut and it would be we would be like drinking all night or whatever it would be like 2 a.m and I would go into Aspo's house and I would just take a hot dog bun and I would put ketchup in it close it and eat that yeah you were I remember as kids ketchup sandwiches you were a big bread and ketchup guy yeah like I remember in elementary school getting school lunch and seeing like you because remember it would come with like a little like bun for the like a burger whatever no like the lunch sometimes just came with a little bun like a biscuit bun or whatever it was a bun i remember you ripping that and dip it and swiping the plate with your fucking bread yeah and i mean not bad yeah i don't hate that it was until you started dipping your pita bread and ketchup which was crazy i mean bread is bread pita's amazing no no no no what's the number one bread is it non i am super partial to pita non is up there i feel like i like non more than pita it's just isn't it just the same but flavored i don't really know i think it's also cooked different can i tell you something i'll tell you i'm gonna be brave here i'm gonna be brave here oh boy the first time that i just like heard of non bread so i was like oh we should get some non bread and i was like oh okay cool i thought it was like a supplement like an impossible burger yeah yeah i thought it was like you know gluten-free bread it was like non bread bread like i didn't had no idea that it was i i love non the times i've had it i started to like it even more once i saw how it was cooked when they just fucking bang throw it into the fucking oven it's so like careless too like they got it and they're just like and then it stays somehow it just stays it's incredible it's like have you seen those videos of like street cooking in india where it'll be like a vat of hot like oil and the guy will just put something in and he's like...

10:57I will say those are the most insane videos I've ever seen in my entire life. Why is the oil black? Why? Like what would we have to do to get you to eat that food? First of all, me. You. Oh no, no. You know me. I'll eat it. We won't be able to leave the fucking... You're dying in India if you have this oily like street food thing. I'm not making it out of there. There's a guy on TikTok that I've seen, which I don't know how offensive this is, to be honest. It's all right. Let it fly. But I mean, well, but he's like, I'm going to eat the street food every day for however many days to see like when I'm going to get food poisoning.

11:38Yeah, I mean. It's fucked up. It is. A hundred percent is. There's no way I'm holding up there though. I mean, fucking Indian food around here. I can't. Listen, I'm not going to sit here If I don't have a base of bread, I just – I'm not going to generalize all Indian street food and say, like, it'll get you sick because I don't know. But I have seen videos of some that's been like – that does look like that would mess up – gum up the works, so to say. I mean, it's – you know, sometimes there's people cooking stuff. I'll tell you this. I do want to get those, like, the drinks that they do. Oh, where it's like – Where they, like, make it rapidly.

12:11But, like, they're not really making it rapidly. They're just, like, shaking their head really quickly. They'll put the ice in the cup and then take the ice out and smash it, put it back in the cup. I'm like, what? You're going to tell me that doesn't look awesome. I appreciate a show, though. I'm big on the show. First of all, I feel like in that situation, you're probably not paying enough because you're getting a meal and a show. Yeah. You know? I like it where it's like, oh, dude, you know what I like watching? You ever see someone like they make Moscow mules, but they make them so fucking fast.

12:39And there's a point in it where they're putting fresh lime juice into it. And they just have like the squeezer. and the guy's just like and just fucking going. I'm like, yo. I don't know if I've ever had, I might have had one, but I don't know if I appreciate a Moscow mule. You've never had a Moscow mule? I can't recall ever having one. And if I have, it's been like a little sip. I've definitely never ordered one. Wow, that's crazy. I just don't, you know. You don't like ginger? I love ginger. I just never had one. I don't know. There's no like rhyme or reason to it. You gotta get one. Going back to bread though.

13:12Sourdough? Yeah. I mean, yeah. Becca's been making sourdough, and I'll tell you right now, put me on a gurney, open my legs, blow away what's there. All right. I'm not going to do that. Someone better, though. Open my legs and blow away what's there. Like with a gun. Yeah. But I don't remember my mom making pasta that much. I'll tell you what we did do every so often. We'd be like, Mom, can we have breakfast for dinner? And she would make us like pancakes or waffles or some shit like that. That's the whitest shit I've ever heard in my entire fucking life. It wasn't all the time. Bro, please. It was once a quarter.

13:51Please, mom. Please. Can we have pancakes for dinner? Y 'all, that's the whitest shit. How is that the whitest shit? The whitest shit I've ever heard of. You're shoving pasta into the elbow of a bread and saying, I have a sandwich. That's modern ingenuity. You're eating like Aladdin. Uh-oh. Yep. What's wrong about that? Also, what is Aladdin famously not? White. have a house. That's what he famously is not. He does have a pretty sick view of Agrabah. He's homeless. Oh, he has a pretty cool little setup there. It's not his. It's an abandoned building. I mean, what is one man's trash if not another man's treasure?

14:33Sure. So there you go. Yeah. Speaking of breakfast and pancakes, I have something. Okay. Oh, boy. I have oomp what would you consider is the best style of pancake can we get this out of the way before we start talking crepes are like overrated as hell you can you could you could die you like crepes like that i love crepes dude yeah crepes are over like a savory crepe but it's not a pancake right i mean definitely doesn't belong in here we're not going to argue semantics it is kind of technically a pancake it's just got more liquid than cake but what more liquid yeah like crepes are just thinner how is that more liquid they're not wet because when you like the batter i'm referencing in order to make a crepe it's a thinner like liquid oh i was like i don't know what you're talking about there so best pancake style oh we have classic fluffy souffle crispy grape thin.

15:37I will say the the is that any spell souffle? I would have not got that. I'm not sure. I believe it is. Well that I think is not great unless it's in Japan because I've seen those videos of them making those fucking fluffy like you smack them like a butt. There's a fuck Japan there's a place oh don't. That's crazy you said fuck Japan. I'm sorry my bad my bad guys. I meant forget about them having them over there. There are places in here that have them. In here? In here, in the U.S. Within the continental. There was like a video that went viral that was like New York City's best pancakes. And it's just like, it's basically a cheeseburger of a pancake.

16:16Hell yeah. Like, it's a big bitch. Yeah, I'm not into that though. If I'm getting pancakes, like that's another thing. That's a different day. But if I'm getting pancakes, bro, I'm going crispy. Yes. What? Yes. I like the edges to be like, nah, nah, nah. Ew. What's wrong with you guys? Crispy is the last thing I want my pancake to be described at. Just get a waffle. But it's not the whole pancake. It's just the edges. The middle is still a pancake. Circumference of crisp. Yeah. Yeah. It's an outline of crispy. I'm not. I'm not. I mean, listen, I don't dislike. I wouldn't by any means call them crispy.

16:49I don't dislike when they're cooked like that. But in this situation, give me the classic, baby. Oh, how boring. Boring? I mean, there's a reason that it's the best. It's fucking iconic. I'll also say this. I'll throw this out there. Waffles over pancakes.

17:07that could be true waffles french toast pancakes oh actually i don't know of the belgian variety or eggo you could they could come from any country you want them to come from we're gonna go belgium though obviously

17:23you like eggos over belgium no i'm not saying that i'm just like i don't know because like the belgiums do it where like you can get it in like the middle of the day i like my breakfast to be appropriately timed. It's breakfast because it's breakfast. You've never had breakfast at night? I'm sure I have. I don't love it. I remember during college, during like finals week, you have some pancakes. They would like keep the, the, the dining hall open through the night for those people like studying super hard and be like, we have breakfast at midnight. And I'd be like, this is fucking stupid. Really?

17:55I feel like everyone likes breakfast at night. It's a nice, like change of pace every once in a while. I mean, but you can change the pace with just different meals like it doesn't need to be you never had a drunk bacon egg and cheese yeah bacon egg and cheese is its own thing what about a mcgriddle what what is a mcgriddle if not a bacon egg and cheese yeah well it's on the breakfast menu i don't consider i know it is uh-huh i am allowing bacon egg and cheese to exist outside of the realm of breakfast all right so you're you would say that bacon egg and cheese is not a breakfast i would say it can me if it wants to be but i'm allowing it to choose what it is would you avoid breakfast foods at that time at dinner 2 a.m 3 a.m no because it really depends on like the atmosphere i'm not having if i'm having breakfast foods past noon noon well you never been to a brunch i have but my brunches have been from like 10 a.m to noon oh wow if i'm if i'm at brunch and it's after 12 p.m The only thing I'm eating is the bottom of this fucking champagne bottle.

19:00First of all, that's both, brother. You never showed up to a brunch at like one o 'clock, get it going. No, because that's not brunch anymore. That's just lunch. Oh, man. You're making good points. Isn't brunch a combination of those? Yeah. Yeah, but that's why it's like a 10 or 11 a.m. thing. Before noon would be breakfast, obviously. No, I would say breakfast is like, you know, I understand people wake up at different times. Breakfast ends at like 11. Yeah, at McDonald's. First of all, you can get breakfast all day, I believe now. Second of all... Not McGriddles. Bastards. That's crazy. Bastards.

19:36They know what they're doing here. They're fucking cock-teasing the world. Yeah, that's crazy. Brunch is a 1 p.m. thing. It feels like a 1 p.m. thing. If you're going to drink alcohol... Yeah. Alcohol is an anytime thing. It's only problematic. It's only problematic when it's an everyday every time thing. I personally would not go to a brunch at 10. Not that I wouldn't, but, like, I would prefer not to go to a brunch at 10 a.m. I also, like, don't really eat at 10 a.m. Yeah, you also need to acknowledge in this argument, you have the eating regularities of a very irregular eater. Huh, you like that.

20:14That's a long-winded way to say that. Say that three times fast. Yeah. You have the regularities of an irregular type of person. I'm not going to sit here and argue it. I will say, though, that to me, breakfast, depending, of course, there are people that work the night shift, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Breakfast is until 11 a.m. Okay. 11 to 12 is brunch. Brunch, and then lunch is after that until dinner time. You can't give brunch one hour. Yeah, it's got to be at least two. I'm also not, I am not bestowing these guardrails on them. So you only have, wait, what was it? Go to any place that offers like bottomless brunch.

20:54When do they offer it? Whenever. No, they don't. They offer it 10 to 2, 10 to 3. Yeah. Bro, it's in the afternoon. I'm telling you. Like it definitely goes to the afternoon. I think it starts earlier. I think that's really dumb. I mean, hey. It's fair. I think that. Well, like lunch. When does that start? 10 or 11? I think 11.30 is lunch-ish. See, like 11.30 to eat like a fucking deli sandwich is crazy to me. I mean, there are people that start their work day at 7 a.m. So that's, you know, five and a half or four and a half hours after they start work. That's normal. I guess so. I just haven't had a real job.

21:34That's fair. So I don't know. I remember, you know, when I worked construction, it was 7 a.m. start. 9.15. Would you eat? I would try to eat, but it would be tough. So, like, I would sometimes just wait until coffee at, like, 9.15, and then 11.30 lunch, and you were leaving for the day by 3. Yes, sir. Technically, breakfast has a time, and lunch has a time. Wouldn't brunch just be the combination of how long breakfast and lunch is? There's a Ventiagram. There's a little bit of both. Because it's a combination. Brunch. Well, I see, like, yeah, but 8 a.m., you're not at brunch. You're not That's insane You're at breakfast Alright so what Hold on We need to specify What is separating Breakfast from brunch And it's the inclusion Of mimosa If I can get a mimosa It's brunch It doesn't matter Bingo No shot So 8am You're not at brunch If I'm having a mimosa I'm at brunch Joey You It's also like It's okay What about 5 o 'clock You have a mimosa You're at brunch AM No PM You know what Both AM and PM Am I eating eggs?

22:43Sure. I'm at brunch. Come on. You're bending. No, definitely more. No. 5 a.m. 5 a.m. If you're drinking a mimosa at 5 a.m., you're cool. It's insane. You're really cool. You're a really cool person. It's probably just because I didn't end yet. Yeah. It wouldn't be because I woke up. Still drinking mimosas at 5 a.m.? 5 a.m. Mimosas is a boozy breakfast. That's what they'll call that. Boozy breakfast. They'll call it a boozy breakfast. Really good. but not 5 a.m. No, this is like a boozy lifestyle. Do you remember what we used to do on St. Patrick's Day? That was at like 8 a.m. And those were beers.

23:21That was different. Oh, it was also St. Patrick's Day. And I was wearing a shamrock. There's a lot of things that like we would literally sleep over each other's houses and go to sleep and put a tall boy next to our bed. Like it was a fucking nightlight. Hell yeah. And then 8 a.m. we would roll over and crack it and start going. If you're saying bacon, egg, and cheeses are outside the realm of breakfast, I would say St. Paddy's Day is outside the realm of drinking. Yes. It's not a normal day. It doesn't count. I agree. It doesn't count. Full heartedly. Also, when they do green beers, disgusting.

23:56Oh, Daddy has taken down many green beers. And also, I one time in college, there was like a super fucking dive bar. and I went in like September or August or something like that. And they were like, we're doing 50 cent beers. And I was like, oh, sick. I'll take one. And it was green. And I was like, what the fuck is this? They're like, it's still leftover from St. Patrick's Day. Oh my God. So guess what though? It's beer. I drank it. It's just beer. I mean, what's the difference between a 50 cent green Milwaukee's best and a$2 green Milwaukee's best? And a bucket of piss. Yeah, what really is the difference between all of those things?

24:37You know what I mean? Brother, I peed hard. Do they have to put blue dye in it to get it green or green dye? Green. I have no idea. You never made them? Are you kidding me? You guys, you guys are alcohol kings. You're the kings of booze. Do you make like jello shots? Are you that guy? Yeah. We talked recently about this. You make them though? I can do them, yeah. I've never made them. Yeah. I've only eaten them. Yeah. It's more like slurp. Yeah. Yeah, it's a lot. You've got to do it in private. I will say there is someone out there, if we ever go on Shark Tank for anything, we can pitch a really cool, like, Jell-O shot cup that has, like, a spring-loaded bottom.

25:17It just fires a Jell-O. No, you could, like, hit it. It, like, stands and sits as a regular cup, and then you could, like, push it down, and, like, the spring underneath will just, like, pick up the Jell-O. I'm not a big enough fan of Jell-O shots. Yeah, I mean, it makes sense why you wouldn't do that. Are they shots? Yeah. There's less. There's no, there's not that much. Yeah, like each one's not a shot, right? You could have 30 of them and it'd be equivalent to like six shots. Do you like mix it in a separate thing and pour it in? Yeah, so when you make jello, have you never made jello? I have made jello, but I don't know, like with the shots, I don't know if you like add that into the ice tray or whatever.

25:53When you make like the boiling water and you add it into the fucking mixture, the powder, you add in like three quarters of a cup or whatever of whatever alcohol you want to do so it's not like if you're supposed to the lemonati has spent decades keeping lemon on top and lime in the shadows their lemon agenda has infiltrated everything even our music that hit song named after the color of lemons not a coincidence big lemon has been pulling strings in the industry for years. Think about it. But now, 7up is fighting back with their new lime lemon soda. Now lime comes first. 7up. Flip the sip. You're supposed to put in two cups of water to it?

Read the full transcript

26:40You'll do one in one. You'll do one cup, water, one cup. Yeah. Whatever you want. Like lime jello, you put tequila in it? Yeah, we get that. We figured it out. Should we do a jello shot episode? Oh god, it's hard. I mean, I don't want to do like a million. I mean, it's gonna be such Fucking bait for all the horny people on the internet because it's just gonna be like I mean the audio listeners are gonna be like Are you going crazy crazy? That we did a thousand one time excuse me did a thousand jello shots How many people 40 people living in your house? It was six it was five of us five people did a thousand well alive to tell the tale that's crazy sort of it was It wasn't it was hard Well, I couldn't eat a thousand pieces of jello give me the information baby come on It was just, it was tough.

27:26I think we wound up doing 600. We tried to get to the 1 ,000. Spoiler alert, but we did 600. Oh, he's trying not to spoil the video so people will then go look it up and they will see. Dude, you ate 1 ,000 Jell-O. I mean, 100 Jell-O shots. Yeah, we did that as well, yeah. That's insane. That's not as hard as you'd think. I think Danny did 100. Bro, I don't think I've had 50 in my life. In your life? In my life. I think Danny did 108. That's a good question. I've never, bro, that's insane. Were you not like hammered? Everyone was throwing up So it was fine Well it's also The combination of the alcohol Gelatin and sugar Oh no sugar free We're not crazy Oh I mean Oh yeah So forgive them What am I going to destroy my body?

28:11Guys eating 600 jello shots Are it nuts Yeah well I'll do 600 shots Just not sugar What am I You can't do that And sugar jello I mean you're getting the sugar With the alcohol anyways Yeah, but it just double whammy can't do it. Yeah, it's bad. We could do a jello shot power hour. No, we can't. Yes, we could. That's too many. It would be 60 between each of us. I think we definitely could. Sorry, 60 each? No, 20 jello shots is a ton. It is. You won't be able to do it. You won't be able to do it. You don't think I can do 20 jello shots? No, 60. Oh. I could just clip 60 like the first time I tried.

28:44You can do 20 jello. Dude, that's a ton of jello. Brother, 20 jello shots I can do in 20 minutes. I guess that's power hour. It's like... That's not that hard. I don't even want to dare you to do it. I mean, it also depends on the size. If we're doing, like, fucking like this, but like a normal, like, the cups they come in. One ounce. It's an ounce. Yeah. I could... Bro, that's crazy. 20 ounces of alcohol? You can't do that? 20 ounces is like 10 drinks. No, it's not. A drink is like two ounces of alcohol, though. But it's also... Each one is not a full ounce of alcohol. It's like maybe a quarter of it.

29:23I mean, yeah. One of them has to be. I mean, bro, think about this, right? Like, I believe there's two ounces of alcohol in like a cocktail. Maybe three. I think it's actually supposed to be like 1.5 is like the measurement. Let's call it two, right? Okay. So that's 10 drinks. Let's say, let's just cut that in half. So now we're at five drinks, right? You just said 20 minutes. Imagine drinking five cocktails in 20 minutes. I mean you probably will like there's going to be a delay on that but it will hurt I mean hurt how? Hammer City you're going to be Hammer City Hammer time? yeah I don't think in an hour I can definitely do 60 jello shots I'm telling you I don't think you can no fucking way sorry sorry sorry sorry sorry in an hour I can definitely do 20 jello shots I'd probably believe that I would advise not to do that I mean I'm not sitting here and by any means saying I'm like pumped at the idea.

30:19Well, I think also 20 jello shots, even if it's not 20 shots, which if it's 20 shots, we're talking about the bodies here. But if it's less than that in an hour, sure. Bro, the jello to me is like a lot. It's a lot of jello. I mean, like that must just feel weird in your belly. But like, what is gelatin if not just like plasmified liquid? It's going to just get pissed out. I'm just worried about the feeling of it. I mean having that much jello in me would feel weird I had years ago I had uh I think it was a colonoscopy and they like allow you to have jello and you just rip jello I think I ripped like a whole six pack of jello cold jello going down feels really good dude jello is not getting the fucking love it deserves I like sucking it through my teeth like it's and it just like collapses and gets through you know what i mean you ever seen the guy do that like sucks in a jello shot and he like gags on it he's like oh oh yeah that shit is crazy i do think that i know 20 is a lot yeah dude bro if i could do 20 which i did how many fucking pigs in a blanket did i eat 30 30 i believe 30 i could with ease do 20 jello shots i think you could do 20 i just i know you can't do 60 i you know what in an hour i probably can't do 60.

31:46bro in two hours in it if you gave me gross four hours i could do 60 i don't think you can you know you'd be hurt bad after that i i mean yeah i'd be i'd be a little toasty can we just do a sanagat studios video just give him four hours bro and 60 jello shots yeah do i have to be there for when he vomits all over the place i'll be How much? I think you like throw up. He does. He likes throwing up. He does. It feels good because that means something has to come out. Well, that doesn't always happen. There are people that dry heave and nothing comes out. Well, that's not what I'm talking about. What was the point of bringing that up?

32:24Not always. Not always. I thought he was referencing something always comes out. I don't like throwing up. If there was a video that you guys made me throw up and can't film that because he's throwing up with me. I'll be fine. And also, I'll ride with you. We'll do it together.

What's the other one? It's ragweed and then like dust. No. Seaweed? No. What? What? No one's, I mean, I'm sure there are people that are allergic to seaweed, but like. Like ragweed? And then there's the other one that's like. I don't know what it is, but like the first week, I don't like, there are people that get it bad.

37:42Like, remember how bad Danny gets it? Yeah. I used to get it bad too. He can't see. I'm okay now, but, like, I am a little jesty bests up here, and I got a headache, but I'll be all right. Okay. So I'm, like, on and off. Like, one year I'll have it really bad, and I can't go outside. Some days because it's, like, that bad. Like, I just, like, can't be outside. It's terrible. Yeah. We'll be all right. It's the spring. I'm just happy. I'm just happy about the fucking good weather. Oh, my God. The sun, when it touches my face, it makes me feel so good and warm inside. Do you have a park where you just go and lay on the grass?

38:17Because I remember when we went and did the UK tour, that last day before the last show, so I guess there were two days left, you just laid down in the middle of that college campus on the grass and just lived on that. In Ireland, Trinity? Yeah. Dude, that was sick. I love just laying on the ground. You know how they say, like, oh, I'm grounding, when you're barefoot on the grass? Apparently that's a real thing. Yeah. I can feel it. Apparently, too, that it's like there are studies that support the idea that getting your hands like dirty, like gardening or something like that, it like boosts. Something.

38:55Serotonin or dopamine. I mean, there's nothing better than playing in the fucking dirt. Why do we stop doing that? Because I used to play in the dirt like crazy. Me and Keith used to like dig. I would touch worms and shit. And now I'd like I'd play like them like the accordion, which is probably bad. You probably murdered these poor worms. Yeah. Yeah. And then the roly poliolis. I would go like this. Yeah. like they were a booger and I flick them. Oh, yeah, also murder. Yeah, I think I'm... We're finding out something about Joey. I wasn't trying to hurt them. I just thought it was fun. But I used to play in the dirt and I would just take like dirt and I would go, oh, and I liked having dirt.

39:26And I wish I got more dirt on my face because that looks cool. It does look cool. We also know how you feel about soot. Don't get me started on chimneys. We're not going to go. If I could work as a chimney sweeper twice a year, I would. For free. What's stopping you, baby? That's true. I mean, I don't have a chimney. You know what? Let's call your bluff. I think we should start a petition. To get me clean chimneys? One day a year. It doesn't even need to be two. One day a year, Joe's a chimney sweep. And I need a work van. And you'll call it Joe's. Joe will clean your pipes. Yeah, well, no, we're not going to do that because we don't want people to get confused of why I'm here.

40:04Yeah, let Joe slide down your chimney. How do they clean a chimney? Do you have a chimney? We have a chimney. Did you have a chimney? No, we didn't have one. Do you have a chimney? I don't. How do they clean a chimney? We have a gas fireplace, so we don't have to clean it out. How do you clean a chimney? It's like a big, like... Oh, I thought it was like old-timey British guys that shut her up and they're like, good eye. And they got a big broom and they're just fucking under it. But does it look like a big feather? Like a big... Like a... I imagine it's like the brooms that they use on the floor that they show in Oliver Twist or something.

40:40The push brooms. Oh, I was thinking more of like a duster, but it's massive. And you're like, oh, you know, there's probably an answer. And I'm sure Ant will look it up. But like, I don't think it's that like, you need to like, soot can cake. So you like, if it's a duster, you're not going to be able to do it. I fucking wish it would cake, dude. Nothing would make me happier than falling into a mountain of soot and coming out and being like. Yeah, well, you would probably have some health things coming as a result of that. Yeah. I imagine that it's not. What the hell is that? Oh, I've seen this.

41:11I've seen this. It's like a... So they put it on like a... A stick. No, no. They put it on like a drill and it spins. Oh, I don't like this. This is the same thing. I've gotten like my air vents cleaned out and this is what they use. My dad's toothbrush used to look like that. The guy would fucking brush his teeth mad hard. You know what? I wonder if that's a relatable thing. Pull that up again. I got you. Does anyone else's father's toothbrush look like that? Because that's how my dad's toothbrush would look Yo he's not kidding It would be like Moses was on that And just fucking cut the thing in half And my dad was basically brushing with the plastic Yeah I remember that as a kid Just being like what is this guy doing to his teeth I'm like yo go easy bro None of us are doing this And he's just like What is it like dads in the morning Do you do this you get in the bathroom You start making sounds No I'll be honest with you I am silent in the morning Really you don't go No I don't do that I do it a little bit I'm not gonna lie I mean, it happens.

42:09Like, as you get older, like, our bodies are changing again.

42:15Why can't bodies just be the same, dude? Why does it need to be, like, they change when you're a teenager and then, like, you get 30 and here comes another change? Yeah. That's the last time I want that to happen. When I'm congested and I get in the shower, I'm making noise. You're letting it, you're... I mean, I'm not going to, like, hock spit in my fucking... You're going to hock, you're going to spit on that thing in the shower. No, I'm not gonna do that But I will Like Like get my hole And then just wipe it Are you one of these guys? No, I'm not I'm not Oh, I hate that Bro, one time I was on the track I was at a park Public park I was on the track The guy in front of me Snot rocketed Like Randy Johnson And I was like Bro, I'm right here I fucking hate that Yo, it's so Fucking nasty Boogers are fucking gross Boogers are gross Dude But I'm gonna say this Okay And I'm gonna put this out there You like boogers?

I'll throw it on the ground. But dude, if you're talking to me, I don't give a fuck. I'm going to get in there. I also like, you know when you get like the edge of one, you're like, oh, this is.

43:49This is going to be a good one. And then you get like a long. And it like pulls it out of your brain. There's few things in this world I like more than that. Dude, boogers are gross. I'm going to throw up. But I love. But my boogers. I love my boogers. I'm not going to eat them though. I'll fuck them. I've never eaten them. I won't throw up. I ate them when I was like three years old. I've never eaten them. You're disgusting. I've eaten. I think I saw something once that apparently there's like health benefits to eating your boogers, dude. Let's not do this. I think there is. I'm not kidding. I think those are just like trick.

44:22Look up a doctor like article. There's no way. Should we use our Dr. Mike calling for this? We should use our one call friend. Should I DM him? Should I call a friend? But just like make it okay again. Yeah. Just being like, yo, there's something in there. Let me just go and fucking get it out. Also, like, when I pick my nose and it, like, causes a nosebleed, I don't – I like it. I don't know why. Because you feel like – it's like the whole idea of, like, you want to work a day. Like, you want to feel like you're – No, no. No, no. It's not like a black eye. It's like, oh, I got a bloody nose. Because I don't like getting blood all over my hands.

45:02I don't really like blood to begin with. but like when you cause a bloody nose because it's because you got like a good one yeah yeah and it's like and then you're like oh now i'm bleeding you know what i mean i i don't like bloody noses i do like the aftermath of like when it crusts up in there you could like clean it out like you got to clean out your own chimney bro yo this is great this is yes yeah when you get a bloody nose and it's like crust on the outside and you just go like this yeah and then there's It looks like pepper. Yes, exactly. I'm pepper milling my nose. Oh my God. You ever get a blood clot in your nose and you got to like pull it?

45:40Cause you, cause you were like shoved. I don't know about that. Not like an actual blood clot. I mean like when you get a bloody nose and you put a tissue in there and then you pull a tissue out and you're like, Oh dude, it's so disgusting, but it's great. Oh my God. The feeling of like jamming paper towels or tissues into your nose, which don't do Dr. Mike. I'm sure he'll tell us that, but who cares? Yeah. And then you pull them out and it's like that first inhalation of air is like fucking what I imagine Heroin in the butt for real. Yeah, boof my anus with the black tar No for real because when you get it in there and but you ever do a double you ever shove double in there I don't know if I've doubled it up when I'm like very very congested I'll do steam and then I shove two in there to get it all loose and then when I pull it out, it's like, oh.

46:31Dude, I kind of, like, I once saw someone do that, but with a tampon. Hey, nose? Yeah, because what is a tampon if, we know what a tampon is. Let's make that a fun thing. What is a tampon if not, you've been speaking like Shakespeare a lot lately. I mean, I am a thespian. But like, what we're explaining, but just doing that with a tampon, dude. It's probably intense. Because they're made to be absorbent. Yeah, yeah. So that son of a bitch is coming out, and I'll be able to smell you from fucking Zimbabwe. Oh, my God. It's so good, dude. I love smelling. A bloody nose is not cool while it's happening.

47:10It's so cool after. I remember once I got a bloody nose, like, at a pizza place. Yeah? There has to be more to that story. There has to be. It can't be the end, Frank. There's got to be more. It can't be the end. It fell on my pizza slice, and I just cut that slice off and then ate the rest. I mean, it's already in my mouth. Okay, as long as it's my blood. Yeah, if I have a bloody nose, the blood is in my mouth. And I can't tell you how many times I've gotten a cut, and I just... Yeah, you're like that. I'm not like that. Really? I won't lick my cuts. No, I'm not a cat. Well, cats are on to something, because it's not the worst.

47:56yeah i just don't like the taste of blood i mean i don't either i'm not like sitting there and i'm just like it's like i'm eating a pen or something yeah i mean bro you know one time i was chewing on a pen and it exploded in my mouth yeah you told this story it's disgusting i it was like a thing that kids did in like middle school and elementary school that like they would like pop pens in their mouth and be like uh and like swallow fucking i don't remember that yeah there There were some Puerto Rican girls I knew that did it. Oh, so it was popular with the Puerto Ricans. Puerto Ricans crushed it.

48:28They were crazy on it. Do you remember when the kids back in the day used to be like this? Turn their eyelids inside out and it's like, look, I got red eyes. I want to slap them in the face. If I could do that, I would. You were that guy. I'm not going near my eyes. I know exactly what guy he was. First of all. What age? For him? Yeah. Nine. Okay, at nine. What grade is that? Fourth grade. Okay. Ant was the type of guy that definitely did that. What is it? That definitely showed up every day with the coolest school lunch and was just like, whatever. So like you'd go to him and be like, yo, you don't want that.

49:05You don't want your crunch bar with your Lunchables, right? And he'd be like, yeah, yeah, that's fine. But then you'd go to his house for a play date and he would just ruin your life by being good at Mario Kart and just be like, I'm just good. Is that you? Last part was pretty accurate for sure Did you cry in school? You a fucking crier? I don't think so I cried once because I thought I failed a test And I was like in second grade Brother? Second grade? You cried because you failed a test? No I thought I did I thought he failed a test Let me tell you First of all second grade I cried over one thing And it was the girl at that time that I liked I told her that And then I cried Oh I did that too Same girl She uh We probably told the story before he was on the show at all There's so many stories You don't know about us dude Just come and hang with us So there's this girl That Frank liked And he told her that he liked her And then Then he cried Right after he told her I went up to her I was wearing a Pokemon shirt Which So radical Which Pokemon?

Okay. Sorry, what grade was this? I'm sorry. Second grade. Yeah. Got it, go. And I went up to her in class, and I was just like, you know, it's crazy because, you know, I said something, I was like, because I like you, you know. Immediately started to cry.

50:32Yeah. Immediately. It was him. Big moment. Wait, why? He just confessed, and he felt like, you know. Dude, it was a big moment for me, dude. That was the first time I told a girl I liked her. Bro, telling a girl you liked her? That's tough. That was basically like diving in the Marianas Trench. Yeah, it was big. It was dangerous. Free solo? Who gives a fuck? You said you liked her No response And you started crying right after I think he cried before she could even utter a response That's probably fair and true Yeah, it was kind of like in tandem it happened He put his face in his shirt and cried Yeah He may have been going for the pity thing But we don't know how Oh, good chance More likely that I was than wasn't If we're being honest Yeah, it could have been something like that And at the end of the day We would always get like With like our spelling words We would get like Crossword puzzles with like our spelling words I remember spelling tests and I remember I like went up to her I was like I'm finishing mine you need help and Joe's like oh cause she's your girlfriend and I I said that?

51:25Oh what a scumbag douchebag dude I turned around I was like fuck you douchebag second grade pussy douchebag but then in fourth grade sane girl was in our class and I forgot what it was about but she was like you keep doing that I'm gonna tell on you I was like I don't care Tell on me She told on me Balls Yeah yeah I cried my eyes out Called your bluff Yeah she called my bluff She was Not to be fucking trifled with I remember like Like all the teachers liked her And it was Low key fast Mad fast dude Yeah she was like a horse dude She was mad Mad Mad fast Yeah she was like an athlete Yo I don't know what it was The girls in our class Were like fucking Quick Bro Jamie I like Basically Lolo Jones A baby Like it's fast as fuck dude Yeah, Bridget, she was speedy We had a class Lauren Betancourt We had a class with fucking I just first and last three years Yeah, yeah What do you want me to do about that shit?

52:29Eh, it's fine Yeah, I mean we're just giving her props dude It's fine, yeah we're just saying that We're just giving her props She was a crazy athlete Our fucking elementary school Cause like, I firmly, firmly, you know, stand by this It was like the Lisa Leslie of fucking athletes in our school The Serena Williams Yeah, Jane. Oh my god, bro. This girl at tennis. Sabalenko She dead asses. Yo like Fucking insane. We're like four years old fucking cash cash Hey, she was nice also you probably don't know the story, but I like Jane Oh yeah. And I told her I was like do you like me and she's like I'm gonna write it on the desk This was first grade and she wrote it in script.

53:16I didn't learn scripts until third grade I was like he still doesn't know I was like now she's drawing roller coasters like what the fuck is this? But yeah, bro. They were fucking quick. Yeah Athletes bro. Jamie was basically Michael Jordan. Yeah, like Like was like balling up with dudes At fucking fourth grade And like fucking slamming Jays in their face And then Lauren was like Brittany Griner dude Like she was like Just backing me down Like to me She was tall as shit I know this didn't happen But it felt like she could dunk If not We were in third grade But it felt like she could Not only could she dunk She could throw an Aroldis Chapman Fucking fastball dude I remember playing ASS at the wall and she would fucking cock back and throw this ball harder than any person I've ever seen.

54:08Low key, you know who was fast? Najat. Bro, Najat was the... Yo, she could cover ground out there. Bro, I'm telling you. Crazy. If pole vaulting was available, she could have done it standing up. You know what steal the bacon is? Yeah, I think so. You either know or you don't. There's one rule in the whole game. You got to steal the ball in the middle or something. Yeah, yeah. You call a number and you kind of do that? Bro. We're talking about legends at Steel the Bacon. You're never catching them. Bro, we did something called line soccer, okay? You would take four classes of fourth graders and line them up on either side of the gym.

54:50So, you know what? 60 kids on each side. Yeah. And the idea was like, same thing. They'd be like, 9 and 14. And 9 and 14 would run into the middle. they'd have to get the soccer ball and like dribble it. The Lemonati has spent decades keeping Lemon on top and Lime in the shadows. Their Lemon agenda has infiltrated everything, even our music. That hit song named after the color of lemons? Not a coincidence. Big Lemon has been pulling strings in the industry for years. Think about it. But now, 7up is fighting back with their new Lime lemon soda now lime comes first seven up flip the sip and try to get it past the line of kids dude how's that possible it is because i'll tell you how when you had fucking mia ham lauren lauren i'm not gonna drop it just like fucking lord bedcourt she's getting her flowers today yeah yeah she kicked that ball bro kids ran the opposite way yeah she was getting a free fucking goal because she kicked that shit crazy first of all if she was kicking at me i'm like bro i gotta go to math i'm not getting in front of this thing you remember a fireball you remember in super mario strikers when you do like the super move and like mario would cock back and have like a flaming foot yeah that's what this fucking chick was like dude she let that shit she let that shit fly dude also dennis our friend dennis bro he would kick that ball i'm not kidding I would get out of the way today.

56:21He was in fourth grade. Yo, the only thing that I was able to, I as a teenager would wear Timberland boots to go play kickball to replicate what eight-year-old Dennis was kicking. Same with Lauren. And that's why growing up, the whole idea of just like, girls are not good at sports. I was like, that is so foreign for me. You don't know the girls that we grew up with because they were fucking balling up. And they were throwing hard. They were faster than most of the people I've ever met in my entire life. God, that's so fucking funny, man. Flaming foot. Everyone's like, oh, fuck! Look out! And, like, it would, like, what I imagine, if it hits someone, it sounded like when fucking you go bowling and, like, it hits the pins.

57:09Yeah, it is. That sound. And right behind you is just a brick wall. Not a brick wall. No, yeah. Brick wall, brother. And this ball would hit the wall and it would just sound like the loudest slap. Speech! Yeah. I think we played dodgeball once and then our teacher was like, never again. Like, we're not doing this. Yo, we played this game. This is so fucking funny. Hold on, hold on, hold on. Let me do the editing. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Now I'm going to do that because we do it. Speaking of sports, we do have prize picks. We have prize picks, okay? Prize picks, it's simple to play. You just pick more or less on a two - to six-player stat projection.

And you do that for two - to six players or something like that, and you could win some money. And it's across all sports. It's not just baseball. You can do UFC. you could do football you could do hockey whatever it is uh whatever's in season they got it mostly so uh all you have to do is pick more or less so very easy to understand two to six people and you get a lot of money it's a lot of fun and uh it's a simple way to spice up you know whenever you're watching the game uh it is america's number one sports picks app so download price picks app today and use the code basement to get fifty dollars in lineups after you play your first five dollar lineup that is code basement to get$50 in lineups after you play your first$5 lineup prize picks.

What were you going to, yo, what were you going to say? I don't know if we were the only ones that had this game but our gym class had a full-on like march madness bracket style game that we played called nukem and imagine like volleyball but like you didn't need to hit it you could grab it and throw it yo these fucking girls were jumping as high as the fucking net and launching that shit down at us yeah and you got out the way because if not you were in big time trouble you think like when you're younger the girls they mature so much faster than the boys yeah especially me i was fucking tiny and then you had like basically i i dude i'm not kidding it's just my experience but when you're younger but it really felt like they were the monsters yo like it felt like they were huge seriously that's why like that mentality of just like girls what sports what the fuck not in fifth grade brother exist for us not in fifth grade because like yo i feel like there was a more of a like more girls in our class were better at good we're good at sports them boys in our class were good at sports am i bugging on that one i don't even know i mean like who were the boy like like who were like the r-grade boy athletes it was like you, Dennis, Cody.

1:01:45Cody. Oh, God. Like, I can't remember. I forgot about that kid. I can't remember anyone else. Do you remember his last name? No, we'll find it, though. Oh, I'd try to. I was thinking Yelnats. I'm like, that's a different one. That's Stanley Yelnats from Holes? Yep, that's not it. But wow, Cody. I haven't even thought about that in so long. That's so funny. But, like, there were, like, 12 girls that could ball the fuck up. For some reason, yeah. Those are the days. But yeah, Newcomb, dude, used to take it so seriously. Do you remember our team? The Dragons? The Bloody Dragons. The Bloody Dragons?

1:02:20Yeah, we were the Bloody Dragons. And we beat in the championship the undefeated team of the Unbeatables. Pretty beatable. In my middle school, it was St. Margaret's Dragons. Uh-huh. You went to St. Margaret's? I went to St. Margaret's, yeah. Oh, cool. Where's that? I played them in basketball when I was younger. and they released merch at some point. The school? The school did. And St. Margaret's Dragons was SMD. That's crazy. And they released it and obviously all the kids knew and so you could do SMD grandma, SMD... No! Yeah, you could do all that. I bought so many things immediately. The next day they took it all off the store but I got it.

1:03:05Suck my dick grandma's crazy. I was wearing it. Wait, why would they put that if you're the lions? What? Are you even listening? They said dragons. St. Margaret's dragons. You didn't say lions? No. Oh, I heard lions from the first time. I was so confused. Yeah, no, SMD. Wow, St. Margaret's dragons. What was St. Francis Prep? You were the terriers. The non-scariest dog on the fucking planet. Annoying though. Annoying which everyone from that school pretty much was It wasn't the coolest mascot It definitely was not It was like a dog It was worse back in the day Because when my brother went It was just like a paw print Now there's a dog Now it's just a smaller dog But the dog looks like a little cooler And not like a cool paw print It was just like a dog paw print That sucks That's kind of Clemson I was going to say, that's what Clemson is.

1:04:04Well, no, no, no. The paw print's cool. I'm fine with that. I like Clemson, but they're the Clemson Tigers. They're not the little kitty cats. That's true. You know, it's like the fucking St. Francis Prep Poodles. You might as well be. Honestly, yeah. My two high school mascots were cool. So the first one was the Sting, and it was a hornet. A terrier beats the shit out of a hornet. Brother. A terrier beats the shit out of a hornet. What do you think has killed more people in this world? The sting from a hornet or a terrier? That's a better point And then you were the owls. The owls. I love owls.

1:04:40First of all, dragons take out all those. Sure. Dragons take out all those. Lions beat everybody, though. Who's the lions? Lion your back and take these dicks.

1:04:53You said lions. You said the lions. Lions, lions your back and... Lions your back and... First of all, take these dicks. Frankie, can you hit him with a goddam, please? I'm so good. I panicked. I'm sorry. I didn't think he was actually going to fall for it. Every time you get me, you fuck it up. I panic a little bit. Lions, you're back and suck both of my dicks. I was debating about getting you guys with the dragons, but I already had it. You can't double. I can't double. You already did imagine dragons. Yeah, I can't double dragons. You can't double dragons. Oh, man. I'm on a hot streak. Well, he got you pretty bad last time.

1:05:31He also did a flashy thing at the camera that was meme, so I mean, he's winning. Yeah, that was absolutely good. But I like the Owls. I think the Owls is a cool one. You know what? You were trying to get that Lions in too much. I should have picked that up. I'm shocked you didn't. Yeah. I honestly, that's why I didn't make eye contact with you. Because I thought you'd be like, oh, I see. Oh, that's what you're doing. Yeah, yeah, yeah. 100%. I thought maybe you were like, just so focused on fifth grade. Yeah. And then my college mascot were the Chargers. It was a cool horse. A horse? Yeah. A Charger is a horse.

1:06:04Like a Dodge Charger. is it yeah i thought the challenger was the horse no a charger mustang oh the mustang mustang that's what i'm thinking about mustang never mind yeah you're right i don't know if the charger's a horse though i know mustang chargers are horses like that's a breed of horse i believe so i got you i have no idea i don't know if they're like official scientific name is like chargianus horse and topolus or something but like i probably isn't I would count that, don't worry. That just sounds like a Greek horse. Chargianis. Chargianis. Term for strong, swift horse. Charger? Yep. Specifically a war horse.

1:06:43What did you... That might be your best one. I like the owls, though. Owls. And the colors were the same. It was blue and yellow, blue and yellow. We had a smurf field. They went D1 recently. What's St. Mark's? Blue? Red. Red? oh with white yeah yeah and then you guys were red and blue right yeah francis prep so boring saint francis too of a sissy i guess they're like they're like older brother and older cousin i don't think they're related actually oh wow i didn't even yeah how would that not how would they not be related it's mad saints dude i don't know they're saints of everything well these St.

1:07:26Francis, it's not like of prep. It's just prep for a school. Like it's prepping you for. I'm aware. But like there's like St. Francis of a sissy. And then maybe there could be like a St. Francis of whatever. What is a sissy? A sissy is like a place. Oh, I always thought of it as just like you're a sissy. You thought that's what they would name a school. No, I know. But that's what we named people. Like we knew our like a bunch of our friends went there to be like, you're a sissy. Did you call your sister that? Sissy? as a kid yeah i think my brother still do which is weird i think you still do no i really definitely do not make that abundantly clear is sissy weird i don't but it's just it's like a kid version of sister it's just like sissy i don't think it's weird as a child but like if you're like 33 years old and saying like hey sissy yeah i guess maybe grow up yeah i mean you tummy you say tummy well well, I have kids now.

1:08:21Yeah, but you say it to not kids. But when you have kids, some of the vernacular bleeds into the rest of your life. You'll see it one day. Like, you'll see something and you'll just be like, what? What? You'll see it. He's mad aggressive. You'll see it. Jesus Christ. See it one day. Yeah, I think you will. Hear it one day. What does that mean? The words. What are we talking about? I don't know. I don't know. And you point it to your ear. Because you hear it. I know what ears are. Oh, okay. I know what they do. Sorry. Lie on the back and take these dicks. Is this... Take these dicks. Lie on your backs.

1:09:07That's not even fair. It's close enough. Lie on your back. I haven't heard of it. I like its creativity. If anything, it's double points because of how fucking good it was. I mean, you said... I said lions. Lion. Why did I say it like that? I mean, come on. Just because you didn't specifically say lie in, you pluralized it. Isn't that the whole point? It's close. We can let them decide. He's 300 bucks in the hole now, so that's why he's trying to defend himself. Whoa, I'm 200 bucks in the hole. This is out of play. That's out of bounds, buddy. Why is that one out of bounds? Oh, that's out of bounds.

1:09:41How the hell is that out of bounds? You did it during a Santa Gata Studios video. Who cares when it was done? It was done. The rules are the rules. You didn't make of them. Technical Frank, we talked about it on the show. Yeah, I have the rule. We have to pull up the tape You've called me a bitch outside of the show and we're not marking it down. That's a good point That's good. When when have I? All the time. No, when can you recall a time that I have called you a bitch outside of the show? I can what would you how would you like me to answer you want to do you bet? No, I Definitely pre-bet no, but like outside of the show.

1:10:15No way. Yeah, the Santa got a studio is one can't count I can't. You want to go through the videos? You think you never called me a bitch in a Santa Gata Studios video? Never since the fucking thing has come out. Never since we made that bet. I'm not going to watch all of it. Maya, do us a favor. Put it together. Maya. There's almost no... I can almost guarantee. And if I'm wrong, every one of those words... I almost said it. That I used to prove your point, you could count them as two. Eight. No. 8. Always dealing. Yeah, this guy. You can't ever take a fucking... I get it. I'm gonna burp. You alright?

1:10:57You're gonna burp? No, it's just airs coming out of me. You want me to come over there and burp you? I don't know why I'm like a cat that's about to throw up. I can burp you. Burp him like a baby. Yeah. I don't think that works for humans. Does it? I don't think it works for babies. No, I think they say that you're not supposed to do that. Smack their back? I vaguely remember that from when I had two young babies. Don't you hold... I feel like you should have a definitive answer right now. Well, you forget, you know. Did you do it? I did rubs. Like this? I did rubs, yeah. It's like pats. Getting your back rubbed.

1:14:08He's probably right, because on Ditmar's, that's Eddie's 2. Oh, my God. And there's, like, Eddie's, Eddie's 2, Eddie's 3. Yeah. What the hell? Eddie's got a strong – they got a chokehold on the haircutting game. Maybe it's like the American version of a name in Russia that's common. That's what I'm saying. I'm not, like, one of those guys that, like, I need to get my hair cut by the same person every single time. But you build a rapport. Yeah, but also, like, I don't care enough about my hair. See, it's just a luxury because you have nice hair. Like, you could do whatever you want. Yeah, I could cut your hair.

1:14:39Yeah, it'll be fine. I didn't pay for haircuts for years. I used to get him buzzed in college by my roommate, and then after, I just grew my hair out for years. Yeah, I did the same. My brother cut my hair. Yeah, I remember your brother would do it in the bathroom. For like 10 years. Who cares, dude? He hated it. Really? Yeah. I mean, after a while, he hated it. How much to get you to shave your head? No chance in hell. Really? No. Why? Insecurity? You'd look good. With a shaved head? Yeah, you'd look more like Channing Tatum than you already do. I'm good. It works for you because you could grow a beard.

1:15:14Rip. Not like that. But even that is good. I can't. Yeah. You bald would be interesting. I can't. It would be tough. I'm also afraid I won't come back. You'd be like Fester, kind of. Yeah, I can't do that. See, he didn't have to bring it to that level. What, bald, no beard? Bald, no beard. What are you supposed to do? You would look like Uncle Fester. It happens. I mean, you wouldn't have the, like... It got a little more color, I think. A lot more color than Uncle Fester. Whatever that is. A little more color, I believe. There are some distinguishing characteristics that would make you look enough not like Uncle Fester, but...

1:15:49Be close. Do you think you got a lumpy head? Maybe. How would I know? I felt my head, and I'm like, oh my god. I felt my head recently, and I was like, what is that? A lump? It's like a little bump. Yeah, I got something, too. I think, like, heads are lumpy. Some people got perfectly round heads, and I'm like, bro, what is that? I'm thankful every day I don't have my father's head. That guy's head is a fucking disaster, dude. Bro, it's like here, and then it fucking flat on the back. He didn't pick up his head for the first 12 years. Not a lot of tummy time, I see. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, forget about it.

1:16:24This guy had no tummy time, and now he's got too much tummy time. You know what I'm saying? Do I? He needed a helmet. He definitely needed a helmet, my father. He probably still does. I like when babies have the helmets. I think it's cute. Oh, I love, yeah, when kids have those helmets. Yeah. You put stickers on them and stuff. I heard they smell bad, though. They stink, dude. Really? Yeah. My nephew had one, and it smelled like shit. What? The kids' helmets. It's like a helmet, because children, like, their heads are still, like, malleable. So if they're laying on their back a lot, then it flattens their heads.

1:16:57So you need a helmet to, like, shape it so that it's, like, circular. I meant more. That's good to know. But I meant more, why does it smell? Because they're babies. Bro, they're kids and they're running around and sweating. Got it. And like puke. And it's made of a foam too. So it's not like an easily cleaned situation. I mean, it's like a, there's like a rubberiness to it. It's not like foam. I'll be honest with you. If I was a kid and I had that helmet, I'm fucking diving off of tables and stuff like that. I thank God I didn't have it because I would have taken full advantage of that bitch.

1:17:30You know what stinks? Casts. Yeah. When children have casts, oh. That makes me sad. Keith had a cast. Well, that makes sense. When we cut that thing open, I was like, look at this. Yeah, Miles had a cast, but I wasn't there when they cut it off, so I don't know if it smelled, but I imagine it did. And then also, like, your skin is so, like, it's like seeing the light of day for the first time, and it's like, ugh. I do kind of like when you have a Band-Aid on, though, and then, like, you take it off, and it's like white and shriveled, and it's like, oh, you're finally stepping out of the cave. Yeah, I'm like, ew, I have a dead part of my finger.

1:18:02Ew. Yeah. Yeah. You like that? I kind of do. Why? I like to look at it and just be like, you're new. You're new? You're new here. I get it. I don't. A little bit. I don't. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, it is new there. Yeah, it is. You like Band-Aids? I'm good on Band-Aids. What's the worst? That's not how I wanted to ask the question. I like Band-Aids, right? Yeah. Like having them on me and shit? Yeah, yeah, yeah. But if a band-aid gets on me in the pool. Oh, that's bad. That's really bad. Outside of a log of shit, that's probably the worst thing I want to find in a pool. I would honestly probably be more afraid of the band-aid than the log of shit.

1:18:44I honestly didn't want to say that because I was embarrassed, but I think I feel the same. I got you. I'll support you through this. Like, if the log of shit, like, bumped into my elbow, I would for sure be upset. Yeah. But if a band-aid touched me, I'd be like, no! I know that there is, like, germs and bacteria that can come off a log of shit. but it just feels like the ones on the band-aid are more dangerous. So much worse. Way worse. Like if I, oh my God, dude, I'm just like picturing this. Like if I'm in a pool like having fun and someone's like, hey, you got a band-aid on you. And I look and it's just been on me and I don't know how long it's been on me.

1:19:14I'd be like, oh my God. Yeah, your day's ruined. I just can't do that. Your whole trip is ruined probably knowing Joey. A loose band-aid? Oh my God. Loose band-aid sucks. That was the, when we, remember years ago we did that Bean Boozled video? Yeah. That was the worst of all those bean-boozled flavors. That was definitely the worst one because it's like, how in God's name did they perfectly get the taste and flavor of something that I just don't even ever remember having put in my mouth? Yeah, it's just like the smell of it and like the presence of a Band-Aid. It just smells like something. I mean, they did have throw-up, and I didn't like that.

1:19:48The throw-up was bad. Oh, my God, the spoiled milk. Spoiled milk was bad, but the used Band-Aid one was, I was like astonished. at how bad it was. You know, you guys are right. We're probably due for a bean-boozled one. No. Come on, guys. Also, you know what I love? The Lemonati has spent decades keeping lemon on top and lime in the shadows. Their lemon agenda has infiltrated everything, even our music. That hit song named after the color of lemons? Not a coincidence. Big Lemon has been pulling strings in the industry for years. Think about it. But now 7up is fighting back with their new lime lemon soda.

1:20:30Now lime comes first. 7up. Flip the sip. Ace bandages. I'm looking for a reason. I was going to say, were you the kid in high school that wore them? Just be like, are you limped into class? People are just like, oh my god, Joey, what's wrong? I would put them around my wrists, mostly. Not my legs. Your wrist? Yeah, like I would like, oh, my wrist is fucked up. dude it would be nothing i mean i like any sort of discomfort i need ace masters i'm 90 sure that a spanages are not like a real thing like i know they are but like they're just like an aesthetics thing no they're like tight yeah but what's the fucking point of keeping of like it's like a soft cast but it's not though i mean if you wrap it enough ace bandages are stupid i also think they're supposed to be under other things and then like you have to wrap them the right way or something fucking get out of here dude don't make me have to be a doctor and a kid have you ever have you ever put um like boxing wraps on your finger on your hands no oh man that feels so good taking them off no like i mean putting them on is a little annoying because it's like a whole thing but when you start going through your fingers like this part that doesn't oh i brought this up the other day when i was like when you get a hot towel how do you guys do it and i I didn't even bring up the part that I do, but like I just do my hands.

1:21:54I don't do my face, but I just do my hands. And then I get in between the webs and I really get her going. I love that this part of my hand. I don't like when other things are touching it, but I like when I touch it. Can I touch it? No, I just said I don't like that. Why not? How do you hold hands? Interlocking? I'll do it. It's not my favorite because of the feeling of like trapped. Oh, I love it. I think it's because when I was younger and people would be like, play mercy so i don't like it oh my god i would always avoid it that's right because when people would you ever do that where someone's like play mercy and they would take your hands and go like this my fingers like i would be like oh bro you remember those kids back in the day they'd be like look i'm double jointed and they would do this and their finger would look like a witch's yeah the fuck is that i'm double jointed with my thumb

1:22:41ew that is so gross wow can you put it back on your own or you have to

1:22:50Oh, it's so loud. Ew, she's dancing. You can hear it? Yeah, I can hear it. Ew. Bro, I thought I was going to look over and your thumb was going to be on the ground. Oh, I'd do it with this one too, I guess. I never knew I could do it without pushing it. I'm just, I can't. And then you got to crack it. Ugh. I could also move my, like, tendon underneath my knuckle. Ew, dude. Why are you so Cracky I was so cool dude It's just one of the weird things about me I dislocated my thumb once And the palm This was like an ear And the palm of my hand Was pitched up like a tent It was so disgusting And my dad just was like You're fine And pulled my thumb And it went right back to place And I was like It was crazy It was terrifying Imagine my thumb went through my hand I'd have a hole in my hand I remember there was that show on MTV When we were kids called Scarred And there was one where the guy His finger got pushed so far back That his bone popped out Right here or something like that So disgusting You feel phantom It's like phantom Had that happen you fell?

1:24:06No I was in my front yard and my sister Kicked a kickball at me and I was trying to block it And it hit my thumb And it hurt but it didn't hurt that bad But I was like ah and then I looked at my hand and I started screaming and she was just like you're being a fucking baby And then I was like look what you did and then she lost it because I was so it was so it was jarring I remember as a kid remember as a kid always wearing sandals. I Always had sandals Always with like the velcro top. Yeah, I remember playing kickball with my brothers once Oh, no, and I went to kick and it caught like if these are my toes it caught like my foot like this so I just went And like New York City concrete I don't know how concrete is elsewhere Probably the same Bro It was like intense grit sandpaper Yeah So my fucking toes came out Squeaky babe Yeah I like the anticipation of hydrogen peroxide And then the pain is like Oh you're like it's like bubbling up And you're like Hydrogen peroxide doesn't hurt It's rubbing alcohol that hurts Whichever one you put The one that bubbles.

1:25:12And then it goes. It's like also. If it's bubbling or itchy, it's because it's healing. Remember that? Yeah. When I put, because I have hydrogen peroxide in my apartment, but if I put it on a cut, feeling how it feels now is so funny because back then it was like the worst pain imaginable, but now it's not that bad. I fell off a bike once and I skid like this whole part. You know, it's like a little fleshy. Yeah. And I put hydrogen peroxide on it. And I had it for the first three seconds. I was like, and then eventually it was just like, whoa. You started making noises? Like, you just can't. I couldn't not make noise.

1:25:49I could see that. Bro, that happened to Keith one time. We were playing basketball, and he, like, was running after a loose ball and just, like, fell and just, like, scraped his whole arm. And we were at Josh's house, and his mom put, like, some, I don't know, like, antibacterial thing on it and then wrapped him with ace bandages. or whatever, like gauze or whatever. And he was like, dude, it was the worst fucking pain ever. Because it's like your whole arm. I don't want to get into the nitty gritty of this because it will make both of you squirm. But I once had gauze stick to a wound. I've had that.

1:26:25Oh, yeah. Gross. And like I had to remove it. Yeah, it hurts. And you pulled it? Did you skim on it? Brother, I can't even like. Did you scream? there is so much to this story that is removing a lot of context that i'll tell you guys off air but like it was unbelievably painful like one of the worst pains i've ever experienced in my entire life did you do you cry if i didn't i'd be shocked yeah the closest i've come to passing out was because of pain and that because i never understood like in movies when people like get hurt and they pass out they pass out from the pain like what does that even really mean but I got I was in so much pain that my vision started turning into the like the staticky screen yeah like oh man I think I'm going out I fought I fought back but it scared me you conquered passing out yeah I changed the channel I did the same thing I was so embarrassed I was like at the gym and I was doing uh incline press and my nose got itchy so I went to go like this and it like sent my arm back and I don't even know really know what happened to my arm but I dislocated my shoulder before so i think like it was just something like that and it like really scared me and it hurt and i screamed mad loud i just went oh like that and one of my friends was spotting me at the time and didn't say a word and i stood up and i was like fuck my pants out and i and then i started walking towards the exit and then the person at the front desk i like i would say hi to them all the time so i was just kind of like fuck your pants out and then i get outside to like the cold air and I like sat on the on the sidewalk and then I like I almost passed out like I was seeing the white and like I like hit the concrete like mad hard because I was like finally sitting down and then I like relaxed and I was in a lot of pain with my shoulder but then a part of me was like I can't even go back in there yeah because I screamed and everyone looked at me and then I just went for the exit like it was time to leave I was like I can't go back in there yeah it was time to go it was bad i took like a week off i was like i'm not going back i don't want people to remember this but it's so embarrassing yeah i mean that sounds scary and like the matrix it's like yeah it's it's a pretty small like yeah oh man it's all right it happens to the best of us bro you know what i did one time that was hilarious and dominic was at the gym you know that uh it looks like a heck it's not a hex bar but it's like it's like a bench bar but it has these things like the whole like the like this in between and you can hold it like this yes yes yeah it like makes it very unstable and you could like bench like that yeah i had never used that before at this time and i put just a plate on each side which at the time was like too much like i could bench 135 on a regular bench but i never done with this where it's like shaking yeah so i put it on and i take it off dominic's on the other side of the bench uh on this side of the gym and i'm and i i'm getting it up and i'm like oh shit and i didn't put clips on so it just bang bang and everyone's looking at me and dominic from across the gym where'd you go dickhead i was like all right it's my second most embarrassing moment i don't think i've had any bad ones in the gym i have a video of you doing uh oh yeah frank's doing like rope tricep yeah like pull downs or whatever and but he's using his whole body and going like i mean i was i remember doing that as an obvious no i was not like seriously working out that way but same small gym and frank screaming going like humping the thing i was like oh i'm a good time anywhere we go at the gym at the gym at the at the you know during steal the bacon dirt steal the bacon i was probably not a good time during then i remember getting called like once what a thing too it's like you could only get caught like you can call like eight kids per class and there's like a hundred kids in there yeah so like it's crazy y 'all played d uh well there you have it folks that's our episode for today frank where can they find you yep and prisco on instagram it's the Frank Alvarez you go check it out everywhere go follow the show at the basement yard on TikTok and Instagram and that is all see you guys next time
