In short

The hosts discuss emergency contraception (Plan B) and then veer into a long, comedic conversation about pop culture (Sesame Street characters, old educational TV), anatomy terminology (vulva/labia), and a chaotic retelling of Wuthering Heights featuring Jacob Elordi and Margot Robbie. They also debate “pup play”/pet play etiquette—whether it’s appropriate for hosts to display kink (leashes, barking, food bowls) when guests didn’t consent or expect it.

Guests

No named guests appear in the transcript; it’s primarily the hosts: Frank Alvarez, Ant Prisco, and “Cookie Monster” (a recurring bit/character name for one of the hosts).

Key claims

Plan B delays ovulation after unprotected sex and before pregnancy; it’s available nationwide at major retailers and via delivery apps; no ID, prescription, or age requirement; it’s the number one OBGYN-recommended emergency contraception brand and won’t impact future fertility.

Notable examples

Big Bird vs. Cookie Monster/Elmo debates; “Magic School Bus” and “Osmosis Jones” as learning tools; “vulva” vs “labia” word-argument; kink “dog time” scenarios at dinner/visits; a detailed (and likely inaccurate) plot summary of Wuthering Heights.

0:00Plan B is a backup birth control option that's there for you when things don't go according to plan. It specifically works after unprotected sex and before pregnancy occurs by temporarily delaying ovulation. Plan B is available nationwide at all major retailers and through delivery apps like DoorDash. No ID, prescription, or age requirement. It's the number one OBGYN-recommended brand of emergency contraception, and it won't impact your future fertility. That's Freedom the B. Use as directed. Welcome back to the Bay.

0:36Welcome back to the basement yard. Frank, your first Hawaiian of the year, I think. Literally not. I think I've worn other ones. Ah, not paying attention. Yeah, it's all right. It's me, Frank Alvarez, here with Ant, Ant Prisco. How are you? And Cookie Monster. Oh, I was like, come on. I thought you were calling him Cookie Monster. No, that would be you. Because I'm wearing the color blue. You're blue. I'm just wearing a blue sweater, you bastard. It's very. And the blue hat. It's very blue. wearing a matching hat as well yeah but first of all if we're getting specific you're not matching if you really want to do it it's called different tones i don't care it doesn't it doesn't adhere to what i believe matching is correct so it doesn't it's not real correct but i am matching quite nicely and ant said oh it's because i complimented ant said right before we started recording he looked at me and he goes very aesthetically pleasing outfit you're wearing nice yeah it was nice.

1:35You're a cookie monster. So when you get a compliment. What's wrong with being cookie monster? He's a great member of the Sesame Street gang. You're trying to make fun of me. Let's get that out of the way too. I'm trying to acknowledge that you are. Ant gives you a compliment and instead of paying that forward the good energy, you're like, I'm gonna take a big, steamy corny poop on Joe's head. See, why did you do that? You knew what you were doing by bringing up the corn? Fecal matter. Oh. Need it be so fucking abhorrent and disgusting? Listen, I'm not the one who doesn't digest corn. Actually, I am.

2:11Apparently the world is. I didn't decide that as my point. That was God. The issue is not with the corn digestion part of it. Whatever, God. Yeah. I love how you did that. That was very nice. Every God. Cookie Monster, though. There's no issue. Like, you're tying something negative to being called Cookie Monster. What's wrong with that? I was paying attention to the tone. But we don't have to. I'll try it again. Here's what I said. I'm here with Cookie Monster. I didn't go, I'm here with Cookie Monster. I mean, we know. We know you. I'm here with Cookie Monster. Okay. That would be even weirder.

2:43Why? I don't know. That was terrifying. Fuck you. You wouldn't get excited to see Cookie Monster. I am 34.

2:53Some parts of life. I'll tell you this with you. Cookie Monster, whatever i'm telling you this right now if big bird walked in here i'd be fucking scared bro a legitimately big bird huge biggest fucking bird a big ass bird and i think what makes big bird look bigger because it might be one of those things where like it's she he she he she i'm not quite sure what big birds pronouns are is so big but it looks bigger because the fucking what's it called Bro, that's huge! That's a fucking big-ass bird, dude. Huge, dude! Let's get the height. Can we get the height? Can we get the measurements? What's the actual measurements of Big Bird?

3:33What's his 40? I mean, gotta be like 7 feet tall. 8 '2! Dude, 8 '2! Big Bird is 8 '2! See what I'm saying? Big Bird is crazy. That's a big-ass bird, dude. Fucking... And then you have elk. Webinyama couldn't stop Big Bird. Oh. Probably could. He probably could. Probably could. We don't know. He could fly! Speaking of God, You're speaking of his god. You are the biggest rider for Wemby. Bro, Big Bird is fucking backing Webinyama down, flying in the air, and dunking on his French head. Is he French? Yeah. God. Quite French. Okay. I'm taking Big Bird in a basketball game. Obviously, he isn't going to beat an actual basketball star.

4:16But, like, probably has a jumper. Wait. He's got crazy eyes, dude. Go back to the Big Bird, like the anatomy of Big Bird. Big Bird do be playing basketball. Is Big Bird balling up? What could you possibly have looked up at that moment? Big Bird playing basketball. He was dunking with Elmo. See? Oh, see. Elmo's like a little bitch. Elmo, ooh. Isn't he? I don't like that. I don't like that. Isn't he small? I definitely is small, but I don't like the bitch part of it. Oh, is that how Big Bird works? But also how because of the arm? Like, he moves another arm. Yo, bro. First of all, this is off Reddit, so take it with a fucking dumb trunk of salt.

4:58I think it's pretty accurate. Could be. I mean, is it? Is Big Bird's right arm not moving ever? I guess, well, it looks like it's on a dual swing here. There's a pulley system of sorts going on inside this Big Bird. I think it has to work like this. The person in the customs is not 8 foot. Yeah, duh. Yeah, but I imagine it would be something... Don't you dare point your fingers at me. I didn't point, I kind of did one of those. I assumed it was going to be Hands, hands, feet, feet And then the mouth is on like a A jaw system Like a jaw system so it talks with me Yeah I don't know That would make the most sense Or I thought that this dude would just be on stilts in there But yo go back to the Google Okay Well the other The one of Big Bird Yeah dude There was a picture of him standing next to a man If you exit out of that Exit out of what?

5:51The picture, like click the X. There's a picture of him standing next to a man. Where is it? Down. To the right. Where was it? No, never mind, never mind. I can't find it. I don't know, fucking disappeared. Big Bird is a giant ass bird. I love Elmo though. Why do you call Elmo a bitch? He's small. He's not eight foot two. Yeah, in that regard, little. I never really got into Sesame Street. It was not something that was ever on in my house, to be honest. It wasn't on, but it was one of those brands that just went further than the show. I'm sure I watched it as a little kid, but I feel like I saw more of Sesame Street characters and never watched the actual program.

6:30Did you learn from TV at all? You know how that's meant to teach you stuff? Brother, there was shit I took from Magic School Bucks. Magic School Bucks is a good one. 100%. Magic School Bucks. We all had some Magic School Bucks. I knew what blood vessels were because of that. Yeah, I remember when they like in the stomach. What's the thing? No, white blood, like white blood cells. Oh, blood cells. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And like white blood cell, red blood cell. Yeah. I learned from Osmosis Jones. That's a good one too. That's a good one, but also that movie's filthy disgusting. Yeah. Bill Murray's like sneezing up a storm.

7:04Is it Bill Murray or Chris Elliott? It's Bill Murray. Okay. Disgusting. What was he dying from? All of it. Fucking sneezing. And also, I remember specifically, the only reason why i know what this thing is called it's because of osmosis osmosis jones where it's like oh you gotta head to the uvula and he's like what's that and he's like it's a little dangly thing and he goes in his boxer shorts and he turns the car to go towards the cock and then he's like no it's in his throat oh i prefer the uh that's the story the mid-2000s masterpiece monster house the joke that they made what's monster house it was like a haunted house movie with like animated kids that look they had like the issue where like they look like they're from the polar express it's terrifying but he's like oh it's the house is uvula and he's like i thought it was a boy he's thinking volvo i mean a very common mistake that what's the volvo frank tell me what a volvo is uh a german car volvo is that german even are they german but what's a vulva tell us it's in the vaginal is it like in it's in it's at the house i don't know what room it is but it's in it's on the property if you had to let's all guess what the vulva is you know what's funny is one of the first episodes we did let's guess what the vulva is all right sorry let's get on track here's a good try yeah it's one of the like here we go well why don't you start Well, I'm hosting Do you know?

11:29Yep. I don't think there is. But I knew all that. I just wanted to make sure that the verbiage I was putting out was 100 % accurate. So, again, it is. I don't like to say things here unless I'm, like, really confident. Right. So is it inside or outside? It's the collection. It's the binder of Pokemon cards. You get what I'm saying? Like, yeah, you might have a Lugia. You might have an Entei. you might have a, you know, a Reshiram in there. But the whole binder is the vulva. Frankie doesn't know vulva. I mean, you don't know vulva. Stop writing stuff down like you're trying to play gotcha. And the labia, you didn't really give a good one on that.

12:09I mean, I knew it was kind of the external. He kept saying inside and in. I mean, what is outside if not an inside from outside? You know what I'm saying? He's got a point with that. I'm going to have a nosebleed. thinking about how that sentence breaks down. How did we get here from Sesame Street, dude? Mr. Anatomy Boy. Mr. Anatomy Boy. I don't get it. You have an issue with Elmo. You have an issue with Cookie Monster. I guess you're only cool with Big Bird. No, I'm saying I didn't really watch that. Yeah, I didn't watch it much either. I did love Snuffleupagus, though. There was a VHS tape that me and my siblings used to watch that it was called like We Sing or something.

12:49and it was one of those things where it was like like head shoulders knees and toes like yeah yeah vibe but it was like uh almost animatronic or something you know was it with yo i am going to i think it was a movie though i don't know there was like one of those tapes that we had to a similar thing but it was about like littering in the ocean and it was like an animatronic starfish and fish and otters and shit like that. Yeah. And like, it's so like ingrained in my mind that I had, they had all those tapes back then where it was just like cleaning up and using the potty for kids. Yeah, yeah. Cleaning up time.

13:26Yeah. Who's the lady on the couch? Big Comfy Couch. Big Comfy Couch. What was her name? Big Comfy Couch. Do you know her name? I just remember her body was the clock. Yo. Who fucked with that? She got up there, dude. Yeah, she was limber. She was like, it's six o 'clock. Or no, she'd be like, it's five o 'clock. One leg was over here. One leg was over there. Yeah, dude. And like, it went around to get there. She's like making a return. What? Big Comfy Couch is like on its way back. Really? Did you watch Big Comfy Couch? I gotta see. I was trying to keep up with what you guys were saying. Listen to the name.

14:00If you don't know it, you definitely don't. It was a giant comfy couch and she sat on it. And she would like, like dust bunnies would pop out of it. Yes, dust bunnies. You're here. Yeah. With the nose? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I think I've seen a little of it. I had a crush on her in kindergarten. Well, when you see her doing splits like that in kindergarten, it's waking you up. I wasn't thinking about that. Oh, okay. I think any girl also has that. Not me, but I can see why someone would have that. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, I probably had a crush on everyone, to be fair. Big Comfy Couch was a big one.

14:31That was like our generation's lamb chop. Right. Because lamb chop was, I think, the 80s, and it was with the curly red-headed woman. Yeah. And it was lamb chop. We talked about this a little bit before, and I didn't bring it up, but you know the puppet Alf? Yeah, of course. Alf. Scared the shit out of me. I was, like, terrified of that.

Why does that scare you? Yeah, what are you talking about? Look at it. Look at this.

There's one stand that you can go and just buy puppets. dude speaking of puppets how funny is it that like when we watch movies or tv shows about the olden days the entire town would gather around a little shack and someone would put on a show with puppets and everyone's like this is fucking fire you know how trash life must have been ass like you're excited like the puppet show is coming to town yeah that's crazy and i'm gonna watch a little wooden puppet walk across a plank yeah and it's like oh and there would be like the king is like a puppet and then he gets embarrassed and then the person who who wrote the play gets killed you well it's because hell's all this time and they were fucking going back to their house and dying by scurvy yeah you know like this shit wasn't cool you know what i think about what was sex like back then because we're not showering i mean they're staking up they were bathing joey they were bathing i think they're bathing and like they're they're getting like a three-day old bucket of water and they'd been like ha ha ha yeah i mean i i imagine that it was like game of thrones they're banging yeah i mean that's what you know that's a good because isn't there that the like where did we go that one time the museum of sex or something like that right yeah and they went through like wasn't there a portion of it that like went through like old-timey sex like not like showing you like this is how the pilgrims were banging old-timey sex It must have sucked, dude.

She's pissed because she's like, I can't believe this guy left me and, you know, by myself, he's going to come back.

21:40At first, she was distraught. She was sitting on the edge of a mountain. And she's like, nah, he's going to come back. Delusional. Wait, waiting for him. He disappears into the mist. She thinks that she's going to wait on a mountain for him? Yeah, yeah. She's like - Famously, no mist on top of mountains. Snow, right? It's like a cliff. Oh, so you should have specified. A cloud could get up there. But she's up there on the side of this cliff, and she's telling the other maid, she's like, he's going to come back. He's just fucking with me. He'll be back. Don't worry. He's a little dramatic. Doesn't come back for years.

22:09How long? Years. Does he come back still stinking? Let me get to that. That's not how the story would go, I don't think. Dude pulls up rich and hot. Yeah. Right? Sounds like he found a genie. So he pulls up rich and hot. He disappeared. He got his life together. I don't know what the fuck he did. he probably like you know whatever but he came back now he's rich and hot y 'all be honest this really does sound like a latin and now i'm saying like he comes back like prince ali fabulous he ali is there a pet is there a cat there's no cat any animals no animals so hold on hold on kind of an animal i'll let you know i'll get there is he an animal a stinky animal gonna talk so he gets back right and now he's rich and she's like oh wow he looks so good or whatever and then obviously they have some certain conversations how long is this movie this is all happening in two hours yeah dude have you watched a movie there's a plot my g so then uh they start having conversations and then he's like you know he wants her he wants to be with her type thing and she doesn't want to now i gotta remember if i remember this correctly then he's he decides so let's just fast forward through some mishmash here he decides okay there's another girl right who's like, I think that dude's sister or some shit, but she lives in the house that that dude lives in or something.

23:31So he's like, I'm going to marry her just to piss off this girl, to piss off Margot Robbie. So now it's this type of thing, right? However, this is where the wretch comes into the movie, and I'm like kind of on this. Tells her, the girl, right? Not Margot Robbie. He tells her, he goes, I'm going to marry you, and all of this is just to piss her off. It's just to get her mad. And by the way, we're going to fuck, but we're going to fuck like demons. Like, I'm going to be rough. Loud, stinky fucking. Yeah, he's not stinky anymore. I mean, again, certain stinks of life stay with you forever. If you say so.

24:11You're still a stinky Astoria alleyway boy for the rest of your fucking life, no matter how many fucking blue sweaters you wear. Sorry, that was unnecessary. That was. That fair, I'm sorry. Fuck. So anyway. So he says this to demon fuck her. No, he says to the girl, he's like, yo, we're going to get married. I'm just getting her pissed off. And I'm going to be rough with you. That type of thing, right? And what does she say? She's kind of like under the spell. She's like, whatever you say, Jacob Lorty, now you're rich and hot. And he's also tall as hell. Yeah, yeah. You never, like tall, stinky, and rich.

24:46Crazy combination. I mean. Wait, how does he get rich? Did they ever specify how he no longer became? They may have. I was kind of in and out. They do breeze over that though. Where he's just like, oh, shipping or something like that. Probably, yeah. Import, export. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. Logistics, private equity. Yeah. Yeah, social media. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So then they start showing, they start showing stuff. What do you mean showing stuff? Like sex? Yeah, like sometimes it would be like he would sprawl her out on the table and then the maid would go walk in and he'd be like, it's okay, you can stay and watch.

25:21I'm like, yeah, what? He would like chain her up. He would like this type of shit. I thought Wuthering Heights was not. Bro. Fifty Shades of Grey. I thought it was like a romance. This just sounds like chain fucking demons. Then at one point. In the mist. Shut up, Frank. Shut the hell up. Get him. Then at one point, Margot Robbie gets sick. The maid over there comes back and she's like, I got to let this guy know. She walks in the door. he's sitting over here with an apple like you with the knife with the apple I think that was a private conversation or a Patreon conversation so he's like eating an apple with a knife that type of shit the girl who he like married her I don't even know if they got married demon fucked she's in a she's got like a chain and she's chained up to like the fireplace and she's on all fours like a dog and she's like barking and the lady's like what the fuck is going on in here why are you so pumped I don't know but like it's like I'm like what the fuck is this so Martin Arabi walks in sees Jacob it's not Martin Arabi it's her maid I thought you said his maid walked in and he was just like yo you can watch this is cool different maid I think how many maids do these fucking people have I don't know it was back then it was like the 1800s many a maid so then she's on all fours barking like a dog like a legit barking like a dog yes and like that was the whole point of that it was like it was like a you know i've got her under this spell type of thing whatever he finds out margot robbie's sick so now he's like what the fuck she's dying and shit like she he lets her off the leash she had i think she was pregnant at one point i'm fucking this shit all the way up oh she was pregnant she gets sick oh and the baby is this dude's is jacob alorty's wait they did sex they fucked each other they did stinky sex yeah they did they did and i think it was his baby oh no it wasn't his baby you gotta figure this the fuck out i got it i got it it wasn't his baby he thought it was and she's like it's not yours he was tight how did he know that back then how well she knew that like the timing that's fair yeah so she checked her vulva she did she got a pap smear um i don't know yeah but then he's so then she's like yo she tells him like yo she's fucking dying like you know like whatever oh that's when he like was like i'm gonna get back at this girl because he found out she was pregnant with that dude and he was like it's not mine fuck you for life so i'm gonna have my girl bark like a dog exactly that was the payback natural payback i don't know yeah if anyone ever gets your uh the love of your life ever gets pregnant you just find someone adjacent to her and turn into her dog for the record i haven't watched this movie i imagine that there's points to all this that you are just completely skipping i don't know that that's true i can I really think I'm nailing it.

28:07I believe it was directed by Emerald Fennel. And, like, Emerald Fennel sounds like an herb. Well, fennel is, it's a plant. And it's green. And, yeah. I don't think there's any dogs in Aladdin. No, no, no. Hold on, hold on. There's birds, there's a tiger. So the ending is the beautiful part where she's dying from, like, sepsis. This bitch is green or, like, white. She's, like, laying in bed. The irony now, she stinks. She's dying in her bed. Yeah. And he's trying to get there to see her before she dies. And, spoiler, doesn't. She doesn't die. No, he doesn't make it. She dies. Ah. Well, you're crazy.

28:56You're spoiling a, like, four-month-old movie. I said, spoiler. No, he's doing fine. He's doing fine. You are fans like us. I'm fully in. I said, spoiler, spoiler, spoiler. We're talking about it. Yeah, but you don't want people to stop watching. It's far too late. It's fine. I'm fully in. So then he doesn't make it, and then he gets in her fucking face, her dead face. She's so dead at this point. How dead? Dead, like white. So she really stinks. Yeah, probably. Oh, she's not decomposing. She just died. I mean, in theory, she is decomposing the minute she dies. You're obsessed with stink. A little bit.

29:28And then he says something like he wants her to come back. and like just like you know because they were like it was very tumultuous the entire time and it's like i want you to like piss me off or whatever like it's fucking stink for me no

29:45whatever but that was the whole love story but the whole wrench and then and then whatever that movie kind of ends like there like there's not like a was the was the girl stole a dog back at that house she's still she's still on her leash and then his front of the fire the love of his life just dies and she was pregnant I believe miscarried at the same time. Yikes, that's sad. The guy who she married is like outside. And he was actually outside when Jacob Elordi pulled up. And he was like, you don't want to go in there. She's dead. He was like, yo, she's dead in there. And he's like, I'm going in.

30:14I need to know the other actors in this movie. Those are the two I know. Owen Cooper's in it for a bit. He's like the young. The young kid. Yeah, the young kid. Oh, he plays like the young stinky kid. Yeah. Young stinky Jacob Elordi. that's the credit at the end of the movie young stinky Jacob Lordy Owen Cooper congratulations okay all right I mean I know that you've butchered that to the point where people that are fans of the actual content are going to fucking smoke you or they're gonna love it like I feel like I did it kind of like honestly I don't see why we can't have here's what we should do we should have an episode where we just watch crazy out there movies and just try to our fucking best of our ability to review them or like not even review summarize them that's what you just did i'm saying like if we did a whole like patreon episode doing that or something like that because of one of those movies because like if i were to sit you in front of like requiem for a dream and just be like what's that movie about and just see what you say or like eraser head just like the weirder movies that are out there yeah not that requiem's weird it's a little more dark but okay so here i'm going to respond i'm going to just kind of repeat back to you what you told me after these messages from our sponsors we do have some sponsors the first one being zocdoc zocdoc is a free uh website that you can go on a free app or website that you can go on and it helps you find and book high quality doctors that are in your area take your insurance and their next available appointments okay i was using zocdoc way before they were even on this show and i definitely use them now because i I honestly don't even know how to do it otherwise.

31:54But ZocDoc, you go onto this website or the app, you put in your insurance, and you put the doctor that you want to see. If you want to see a primary care physician, you want to see a dermatologist or whatever you need. When I went to the dermatologist recently, I was using ZocDoc because I was like, how am I going to find a dermatologist? I have no idea. This is how you do it. But you put in your insurance, and they show you all the people in your area that take your insurance and their next available appointments, which is usually within like two days. As long as I've waited is like two days, honestly.

She finds a stinky little British boy. No, she's not rich. She's like middle class. That's why she's trying to level up Oh, okay Oh, by the way, a detail I forgot to mention Dad hammered 24-7 All the drunk, all the time Who plays the dad?

36:16I don't know A good drunk acting is hard to do So I can imagine that would be impressive You know who played a great drunk? Nick Nolte Killed me in Warrior, oh my god Yeah, he also I think he might actually just be drunk Nick Nolte? Yeah I don't know Mr. Nolte if you're alive well if you're not alive I hope everything is all right I don't know where I'm getting at if if you walked into like your friend invited you over and you walk into their house and their partner is just on a leash you'd be like like they invited you for dinner and they're just oh yeah yeah that would be I I think I would I mean I would just say something right like have to address it I'd be like what the fuck is this like if it was like a ha ha we're just joking around okay but if it's like a no like this is seriously what i'm into i might need to remove myself like just be like all right i'm out i'm not i'm not that's how they got the ditty people because the ditty people didn't say anything i see i would um i would have some questions i'd be like oh what's that about you want to know the ins and outs of their leash play well i i also think that it's a little disrespectful if you're going to do that if you're gonna do some kink stuff in front of company that doesn't know i think that's kind of fucked so let's do one one in the same vein if you go over to someone's house and them and their couple like it's just like oh they uh they wear a diaper i gotta go change them i'll be right back oh man um just go like don't tell me yeah like i personally from what i've learned from doing opl is that people that are in the kink communities think that it's a bad thing if you're just going to like do stuff like that in front of people that have no idea what's going on like you shouldn't do that i mean i mean that that invites the the side sideways looks you know like well yeah that's why i'd be like what is she doing yeah we don't need we don't need all this yeah i don't need all this on the like you could do this in your own time like or just don't invite i don't have to come over let's go up right or just like give me a precursor here just be like hey just let you know my wife and then she's a dog and i'll be like okay is that like a yeah i would i would i would kindly if that were the case i would just be like all right i don't need to come over i don't i'm okay if you can't turn off the dog for an hour and a half that i can come over and hang out for dinner or something i can hang out with the dog with your wife dog brother you cannot why you will not be able to why what am i gonna do you will be very uncomfortable oh yeah and i'll be fine yeah As long as they don't ask me to pet her or him.

38:52Pet her? Yeah, like a dog. And it depends what's happening at dinner. Like if a food bowl comes out, that's when I'd be like, oh, man. Brother, the leash is out. What do you mean if a food bowl comes out? They're there. They're at the fucking, you know, they're at the park. I mean, I'm not going to leave. What am I? I would just say, respectfully, I don't feel comfortable with this. You guys kind of doing this on display. If it's what you do in your own time, that's fine. It's just not for me to be around. Sure. I would just have questions. It's like, all right, if you're going to put it out here, I'm going to ask.

39:22Yeah, let's go. I mean, but that's what they want. They want it to be like, then they get back and it was just like, you left, you are a bad doggie. Yeah. Right. And they were like, that's what they, that you're playing into their game. You're fucking helping with the kink. Because then they're going to be like, Joey thought I was a bad doggie. Well, I didn't say that. I was just asking like, oh, what's going on? Like, is this a joke or whatever? And if it's real and they're like, oh yeah, this is, you know, This is my wife. She likes to be a dog. What would he do if they then full-on pissed on the carpet?

39:54If she ripped a pee? Like on a wee-wee pad. Yeah, I mean, I would... I mean, what is she, naked? In their pants. She peed her pants. Yeah. You're there, brother. Ask your questions. I feel like a skirt scenario would probably make more sense. Oh, I don't... I mean, I feel like nudity is definitely crossing a line. Oh, yeah, that's crazy. That's why I said pants on. But they're like, they make an oopsie. They make an oopsie. Right. You know? Yeah, I mean, I would definitely. The doggy went in the house. I would definitely just be like, yeah, this is like very, there's a lot going on here, sir. Like this is.

40:31You sound like inconsiderate guests is what you sound like, Frankie. I would say. Brother, if that makes me an inconsiderate guest, no problem. I do think it's a little inconsiderate of the host. No, of course. To not give someone a precursor of like. Bro, if I went over to your house and then your fucking partner's there just like tied up and it's just like, yeah, it's just what we do. I'd be like, why would you even ask me to come over? Yeah, this is not the time. Like why? Like exactly. Like that would be like you wanted me to see this. Weird. It'd be such a funny prank too to pull, like invite you guys for dinner and just one of your friends is doing that.

41:07It's like it's all a bit would be great. I mean at this point. if it was one of my friends, I would certainly speak up. I honestly, like, it would need to be someone I know so well that, like, if they told me it was a joke, I'd be like, yeah, I know it's a joke. Because, like, if it was someone that I was, like, teetering on, like, I don't know if this could be a joke or not, that's way worse. How would you feel if I told you that, like, I'm actually into it? Like, we do it. Good for you. I would be so supportive of you and your king. Who's on the leash? Who do you think? It's him, right? It's him, 100%.

41:39It's Dom play.

41:44It's okay. I mean, no, seriously, like I would make it a point to be like over the top supportive. So like there was no room for like, he's judging me. I would legitimately be supportive of whatever that would be for you. But if you came over. But if I came over and it was in the room, I would have to talk with you and just be like, it. Crazy. That's my fucking life. I'm talking about like it being the display. Okay. Like. You'd be like, chill. I would just be like, dude, you didn't need to do this while I was here. So if I told you that, right? If I told you that, I'm like, yeah, we're going to turn it into this thing or whatever.

42:19And then one time you came over and like, it was dog time. I mean, I would hope that you would be able to schedule dog time around your fucking visitors. Yeah, but. Yeah. It's not nap time for a child. You're consenting adults. you can move dog time sometimes you just gotta bark man yeah sometimes it's like it just takes over you it's just you know the bark is bigger than the bite you know yeah the bark is in you forever it's that's one of those stinks you can't get rid of yeah it feels like my fault my bad what would you do if like another universe you're going on dates with people and they're like i'm a a reformed doggy reformed like i used to be into like doggy king play i don't do that anymore i'm first of all is this a first date yeah this is a an electric first date yeah this is what i'm looking for yeah i i i mean we would have tons of questions i would be like yo what are we talking about here that wouldn't be like an immediate like all right respectfully i'm bowing out oh why come on personally i'm imagining this person is fucking shitting on the sidewalk and stuff like that you You go right to defecation.

43:30There's a lot more. The pup is like you jump over stuff. You like to wear a collar. Whatever. Remember girls wear chokers? What's the difference? I remember. I very much so remember Julia Stiles. Trust me. Chokers were the thing. She had hundreds of those, dude. Any fucking premiere she was in. Do you remember the black ones that were kind of like lace it looked like? It was like this. Yeah. Julia Stiles. Pull up any picture of Julia Stiles from the mid-2000s, and I can almost guarantee she had one of those on. I liked them. I remember they made them for ankles, too. Did they? Yeah. Whenever girls wore those in middle school, I was like, I kind of like this.

44:13All pictures of not. Not in a single one. I mean, there's a necklace. Just type in choker. I don't know if that's what we should be putting out there. Aren't those what those are called? Chokers? Yeah, they are. I think so. You don't have to put it in. Is that right? Yeah, something like that. Plan B is a backup birth control option that's there for you when things don't go according to plan. It specifically works after unprotected sex and before pregnancy occurs by temporarily delaying ovulation. Plan B is available nationwide at all major retailers and through delivery apps like DoorDash. No ID, prescription or age requirement.

44:49It's the number one OBGYN recommended brand of emergency contraception and it won't impact your future fertility. That's freedom to be. Use as directed. Honestly, even when the search is specific, still not there. So I've seen so, I feel like I've seen so many. I'm sorry, I'm wrong. You can't get the Julius Stiles choker out of your brain. I guess so, yeah. I saw her in that one movie and I was just like, that's every picture now. Save the Last Dance? Save the Last Dance. There was a movie she did that was called, I think it was called like, was it Misery? 10 Things They Hate About You? No, there was another one where she like played like a bad kid.

45:26I think it was 10 Things They Hate About You. No, no, no. No, there was another one. Fuck. I think it was called Misery. Not to confuse it with the Kathy Bates. Kathy Bates Misery. I mean, I'm not going to ask you to look up Julia Stiles' filmography, but I remember it was always on RCN at the time. No, we're past that. You go on a date and someone's like, oh, I used to be into pup play. Not that they are currently, but they're – But if it got to the point where I had to back out of it, I'd be like, it got bad, dude. Or maybe they're just not into it anymore. Maybe the pup left. The pup ran off.

46:00What happened? I feel like if you're committing to pup play, you know you're in for the whole shebang. You think it's a lifelong thing? I imagine. I'm sure you could grow out of it, sure. But what happened in that person's life that made them go, I'm wiping my paws with this one. I'm out. Well, dogs age faster. So maybe, you know, just get out of it faster. You get too big for the yard. Yeah. I think that maybe it was like some, maybe what if she was just indulging in what her partner at the time was into? Like he was really into pup play. So she was like, all right, I'll pop it up. It's just, it's, it's, it's a very strange thing to me.

46:41I would respect that crazy. If she was like, I wasn't really the OG pup. I respect people having their thing wholeheartedly. I think like there's a level for it that personally I would not be able to look past. It would just be too, it's too weird of a thing for me. and weird in not a non-disrespectful sense that like it would just be hard for me to not like I'm an overthinker. You know I'm an overthinker. It would be hard for me to not look past. To look past that. Excuse me. Does it matter if she was a cat instead of a pup? Oh, good question. That's a really great question. It would almost be worse if she's a cat.

47:15I think because cats have more like licking of themselves and hairball things and litter boxes. Wait, you're saying the cat's worse? I think it's a little deeper in there, you know? Okay. It would be a wonderful conversation. Yeah. Have you guys talked to a former puppy on OPL? Yeah. And? No, they were a current. They were barking it up. Uh, no. It's more of like there's masks. We looked them up once on the show. Oh, yeah, we looked them up once. Yeah, I remember. I remember the masks. Yes, I remember when we looked up those masks. So you wear the masks? Not cheap. No. Bro, it's leather. It's artisan artwork.

47:56Yeah. I mean, it's tough. Artisan crafted doggy mask. There's a market for sure. Good. Listen, all the power to, I also would say like, what I was going to say is like, if she was like, I wasn't the OG pup, my partner at the time was really into it. So I indulged. I'd be like, that's fire. It's cool. I hear what you're saying. Yes, sure. Fine. But if they were to say like, I bowed out, my question hung up the pause. I would be like, why, why did she hang up the pause? Why are you no longer? Oh, she's like, I just wasn't that into it. I was into it for him. Yeah, and then they broke up, and now you're not into it.

48:31But that gets to a breaking point. Am I making sense by saying that? What gets to a breaking point? If you get to the point where it's like, I wasn't that into it, it's like, all right, something happened or almost happened to put you into that breakup. It was like, I'm no longer with the pup guy, and I don't need the pup. I got the mask just in case. Just cause she nibbled a little bit in the pub doesn't mean she went full pup I mean maybe she went full pup Maybe she did First of all I would respect that I actually wouldn't respect just being One foot in one foot out of the pup You're gonna pup or you're not gonna pup Yeah go pup go full pup Go full pup if you're gonna pup pup The point that I was trying to make I was trying to review the fucking Withering Heights movie and summarize it How the fuck did we get the pup player?

49:15Alright here we go From what you said Stinky Jacob Elordi gets found by middle class fucking Margot Robbie. Yeah, it's raining. Raining. Mist everywhere. Always someone is wet. Yeah. And then? She's like, he's like, oh, you know what? Fuck this. I'm out. Because you like fucking rich guy and you only want to be with him for status. And then he comes back. He's like, guess what? Now I'm the status. Yeah. And fuck you. So I'm going to take his fucking sister and I'm going to make her bark like a puppy. Yeah. And I'll show you Margot Robbie. I'm no longer that stinky little sad boy that soiled his pants all the time.

49:55Now I'm fucking prim and proper and probably wearing an ascot. Maybe. If there's not an ascot in that movie, there's lanterns. Oh, there's ascots. Okay. And then it's like, you know what? You stayed a piece of shit for too long. I'm Margot Robbie. I'm dying. I'm dead. now I stink and you're now rich and miserable because you didn't you didn't decide to be a good guy essentially but they all they loved each other throughout crazy but they smelled like shit they never smelled like shit at the same time that's what I'm getting here is that at different points different people had different stinks they never matched their stink up to go full stink together they never sent the stink it's like he's like oh I'm a little kid I smell like shit and she's just like alright I don't and then I smell like shit but you smell better because now you use hot baths and stuff because you're rich and British now you're not listening but he's actually he's actually speaking thank you so like the message of this story the moral of this story is match the stink if love is more powerful than stink love is more powerful yeah well love overpowers the stench of love is better than the stench of dog shit now your point is reversed i think yeah yeah you were building to the well no they were fighting their love when and then because of doing that they both have different instincts you did have something i still got it it's like right right people wrong time is what he was Nat I think.

51:34Right stink wrong time. No. Wrong stink wrong time. I tried. It's not about to stink at all. Tried my best. I mean when you got a little smelly like dog shit Jacob Elordi. I can't even do it. What could you possibly be writing over there? Uh right stink wrong time. Got it. I imagine that Mr. Elordi, first of all, don't beat me up because you're like 6 '12 and probably could wipe the floor with me. That would just be seven foot. Yeah. I'm not saying you stink. Your character probably smelled like dog shit. Yeah. Was this the interviews where Margot Robbie was essentially saying like, oh, I yearn for him still or something?

52:20Yeah, I think that's like a whole marketing thing that they do now in Hollywood where it's like, oh, if you make it seem like the actors are in love, and people will go see the movie. Like, will they, will not they? Yeah, that type of shit. All right. I didn't love that. I know, like, there were some other... It's also weird. There were some other awkward, like, press junkets and stuff like that, too. Like, the famous one was the one last year with Pedro Pascal and Vanessa Kirby for Fantastic Four, where, like, she's, like, stroking his back, and, like, he's like, well, no, it's all right, guys, because I have anxiety, and she's helping me.

52:57yeah i mean i have no i like i don't know like if that if that isn't a marketing thing like that would be so weird because she's married you know what i mean i'm like i agree this is a weird comment yeah and i'm sure he was lurching around with someone at that time too lurching lurch like tall yeah yeah you know lurch adam's family good job dude i know snapping so you crushed that You absolutely crushed that Snapping? No, the knowing that it's from the Addams family Oh yeah, there's only one lurch in the world Alright Is that an actual verb? Lurch? Lurk But I was lurching in reference to the fact that he's giant And jury's out on if he actually does stink He looks like he smells good Not in the movie While he's fucking always soaking wet Wearing old timey English clothes there's no chance he smelled good.

53:54I know. And he was chopping a lot of wood. When he gets angry, he chops wood in that movie. He gets pissed and he starts chopping wood. Okay. When was the last time you chopped wood, Frankie? Not that long ago. He has a fireplace. Oh. Well, no, my fireplace now is gas. But like at the lake, like five years ago, I was chopping wood. If that, maybe even sooner. I don't even know the last time I chopped wood. I would chop wood at my friend's Long Island house And it's just one of those friends where his dad would trick me into doing manual labor His dad That was my dad Big time dude Big time His dad is like masterful at it His dad will just ask you like When he says masterful it's really disrespectful No no no It's masterful You don't know it's coming And you know it's coming But you don't know that it's right now Well because you would think that he had the wherewithal to know that the kids that stayed up until 4 a.m.

54:49drinking don't want to be up at 9 a.m. to flip a dock. Whoa. Brother. Whoa, that's a flip a dock. Dude, not an exaggeration either. Like, 30 by 30 square pressure-treated wooden docks with barrels tied underneath them. And then it's like, let's make a bunch of 11-year-olds flip this. Well, we were like 20 at the time. Yeah, we were. I'm joking. And then it's like, the best way to flip it is to get it straight up and then walk it down. Yo, this thing weighed like 5 ,000 pounds and there's 20, 20 year olds like trying to figure it all out. It was tough, dude. Yeah. I remember one time I was, I was staying at Aspo's house and it was like dinner time and we were out on the lake.

55:36So we're like, all right, we're going back. And I was like, I'm just going to swim back. So I swam back and like, there's like a little beach by Frank's house. So that's where I got out because it was like too far to get all the way to Espo's house. I was like, fuck that. As I get out, his dad's like, can you just help me? I think there's a hole in this thing. In like one of the things. I'm like, yeah. Hour and a half. Looking for this hole. And he's like, you put water. Water and soap and you see where it bubbles. Yeah, classic. It was like an hour and a half. Love Frank to death though. Well, was there a hole?

56:08Yeah, there's certainly. Was that you? Did you hear that? Did your balls just drop out of your pants? The giant bank? Was there a hole? Yeah. I was like What the fuck was that That was crazy It was like The start of like A fucking like Techno song He doesn't listen to techno No I don't listen to techno Would you go Like if we were like In Berlin Would we go to like A deep house Like fucking Let me tell you The places I don't want To be most on the planet Really Yeah Just for the experience So I can go listen To fucking Diplo Diplo Why don't you shut up And Diplo To suck these nuts baby

Yeah right Yeah you gotta hit him with a got him That was pretty good Got him so good baby Got him so good Dip low and suck these balls Yeah yeah yeah That's not bad That's not bad I think that's a pretty good one And I like was calm during it I didn't I didn't like stumble my way through it as I was calm during it as I've done so many other times yeah well did I get you with that one where you were like did you see it coming no there was it was very fast I'm so glad he fired off because he got a little excited about the techno thing and then it just it all yeah no I cannot imagine wanting to go to like an electronica are we going are we where he's going like are we in the cool area or are we just going I'm not going Oh, well, yeah.

57:41He's not going. He's not going. I'm saying, like, are we just going and being in the pit? I don't want to do that. I don't want to do that. Also, I don't want to, like, hear a DJ just going like, Come fucking do it! Come on! They're German. Oh, so. Yep. It's like. No. The same voice. Very Euro. Yes. Electronic. No, I did it again. Fuck I can't buy my German. We'll start with a different German then go.

I mean I'm there might as well I don't know how like, you know, it's not like I'm the lights and the lights and the like alone would give me a heart attack.

58:40Yeah, yeah. It would be intense. That would be a lot. There'd be a lot of mist there too. Maybe Stinky Jacob Elordi's also there. Get to the ads. I'd wear like a fishnet shirt. Yeah. You know what I mean? You're trying to introduce fishnets as a normal part of your wardrobe. He is, right? He is. How am I doing that? And it's fair because you do have the build for it. How am I doing that? Well, you're experimenting with fishnets. you want to mention that well you wore you wore one to the iheart uh podcast awards that's right it wasn't really fishnet i mean brother adjacent it was adjacent it was closer to fishnet than anything that either of us anything that i've ever worn in my entire life you couldn't give your jacket away you know yeah it was get to these ads we'll talk about your fishnet obsession after this.

Back to Joey's fishnet. He's now... Is it getting to the point? Because this is the second time he's brought it up. Well, you wore it the first time, and now you're bringing it up like, wear a fishnet. When do we label him fishnet, Joe? It was more just a lapse of fishnet judgment, I feel, for a second. I don't think... By the way, the most frustrating part of this is you pulled it off and you look good. If you look bad, I wouldn't be making fun of you for it.

1:02:45Actually, I would, but just not as intensely. Okay. So, like, if you're trying to just soft launch... It wasn't really fishnets. If you're trying to soft launch fishnets, that's fine. I support you. Just let us know so we don't make fun of you and make you feel bad about what you're wearing. I don't believe that about you. What? What does that mean? I'm wearing blue. I said you looked like Cookie Monster. Twice. Sue me. I made an observation. Twice with intent. With malintent. The intent was to show you that I know Cookie Monster colors. I don't think that you can hear yourself speak sometimes, buddy.

1:03:21You're damn right. I don't need to listen to myself speak. You love it. No. I don't need to listen. If you're trying to make fishnets work, I just want you to know you look good when you wore them, and I support it. I don't consider that fishnet. It's porous a bit. but it's not like fishnets like you could see through it it's like jeff hardy that was more i guess he's right but fishnets are more if i was wearing a fishnet shirt you'd see my nipples brother we we didn't not see your nipples saw my nipples it was there was nipples about like you know what nipple there what was that oh oh he knows where your nipples are yeah forget him maybe did we know someone who was like i'm really good at this i can tell you where your nipples are.

1:04:09Some girl. Yeah, it's like a... Wait, what? I just did an anime move on you, but that's how you do it. Center chest. Boop. Nipples right there. Is that true? Wait, so center chest. Yep. Nipple. No. Well, no, no. I mean, you're not really... You could see where Ryan is. I'm fucking cockeyed. Your shirt's almost fishnet. Like this? No, it's a white t-shirt. Like this? Yeah. And then I, what, bend my hand? Yeah, and then, boop, should be right there. That is my nipple. No. Also no. I don't know how center chest you are, but... Brother, I know my chest. He is center chest. Yeah, you drop it? I think I am.

1:04:51Come here. Try it. All right. Because I'm doing it. Let's see. And be on it. And don't actually pinch my nipple, please, because I fucking hate my nipples. All right, so... Get in the center of that thing. Here's my center chest. It's like this? That's not my center chest, brother. Brother, it's... Okay, you drop nipple. He got you? That one he got. The other one is fucking lazy eye. It's looking around. That's kind of a crazy... Why do you know that? This kid loves nipples. Why do you know that this thing... Sometimes you just know things. Were you breastfed? I think so. That's how he knows. He's like, Mom, just wait there.

1:05:36yeah too much um that's just one of those things that you know gave everyone an image of that i was breastfed you were breastfed too right yeah what's wrong with that now you got someone against breastfed people i also don't know if i was i assume last child i feel like usually maybe not breastfed yeah i mean i was lucky i was fed at all right at that point your mom's gonna hear that she'd be like joey tell the people that i fed you appropriately no my mom fed us you were very you were you you were nourished yeah you were i got you liz don't worry i'm not gonna allow him to drag your name on a fucking podcast um how did we get there we were talking about your fishnet obsession oh my nipples fishnet session right my nipples were not out that's the thing They were like there, you know, like when a room is completely dark, your eyes adjust to the light and you can see a little.

1:06:39You know what I'm saying? You could probably see like there is some sort of shadow if I squint and that's where his nipple is. But it's not like it's like out. I need to see. I don't think pictures will do it justice. I need to see the shirt that you had purchased. It's the easiest solution. We'll just go win another award and he'll just wear it. I could wear it on the show Wear it on the show I mean Oh god As if you need to look better I'm gonna get to wear a jacket

1:07:09Someone's playing dice Dropping fucking Yeah that scared me There was a sound that sounded like Dumbbells And a little girl Yeah that's why I don't like it Yeah that is scary Squeaking and hearing like a little girl Laugh or something Sometimes Sometimes when you both leave And I'm here It could get really dark in here Bro, it gets mad dark in here. Really? Well, because we black everything out. Oh, yeah. Bro, at night, when I have left this place and shut all the lights, I'm like, I legitimately can't see a thing. I call the elevator first and get that light, and then I throw the lights and go in.

1:07:40Yes. I get scared. Were you the kid that ran up the stairs in the basement? Like, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. I still have to mentally make it a point to be like, I'm a grown. I'm grown. Yeah, like, there's nothing down here. This is my house. But then one time something did fall over, and that scared me. um do you still go up the stairs on your like hands sometimes oh yeah no i don't have access to that many stairs no i don't like i live in an apartment with no stairs um you don't do it you know i i i'm not like i used to do it and be like i'm pikachu but like yeah but like i i haven't done that i can't even tell you last time i did that damn that's the sad part dude speaking of sad i saw a fucking tiktok recently and it really sent me down a bad path and it was like it was so sweet it really i'm so sensitive these days for some reason but it was a guy who had a lovely voice and he was singing frank sinatra my way to a bunch of old ladies in a retirement home oh i saw that and there was that one woman that was just like she was like mouthing the lyrics and i was like this is breaking my heart yeah Because he's going like, and now the end is near.

1:08:48Well, yeah. I mean, that's kind of fucked up to sing that to a bunch of old people. That's what I mean. Well, the comments were saying that. Like, hey, guess what? You're going to die soon. So I face the final curtain. And she's like singing along. I'm like, oh, my God. She knows she's going to die soon. And like, that's just so sad. The comments, though, he was like, because people were saying that. And the kid wrote, this was a request. Someone requested it. Someone requested. yeah because just going in there and firing off songs about being close to the end is crazy but yeah it just made me cry and then i saw a bunch of sad videos bro i saw one like two days ago that was like and it was like a news story someone did it was like an old man had lost his wife and he was just like grumpy and miserable and pissed and then he was in a grocery store and like a little girl like asked him for a hug and he was like i had never i had i literally was living to like living to die waiting to die and then this little girl just asked me for a hug and like they like bonded and like would like spend time together and stuff like that don't even i have chills oh he's going i literally have chills also i saw this other thing and this i i was uh i was a fucking mess bro i was a mess watching this uh i'm not even gonna pull the video because i'm i'm legitimately gonna cry i mean that one i won't talk about i'll talk about the other you know what we're gonna talk about both just do it maybe who cares this is the tail end of the there's a there's a video that this one got me going i'll just read it but because it's just a video of like a bunch of kids that are they look like they're in their early 20s okay hugging this woman and it says two years ago on mother's day we said goodbye to my brother after his battle with cancer today for the second year in a row his friend surprised my mom for mother's day a beautiful reminder that love lives on through the people he touched right right so i see this video and it's like all the kids are there and they're hugging the mom and then they're in her like driveway and they're just playing basketball the next video is some guy talking about that video and then like he adds in that oh it's such a sweet thing because her mom because the mom gets to watch the kids through the window playing in the driveway playing in the driveway and it reminds her of like her son and and i'm like fuck this app that's beautiful fuck this app to hell that is beautiful yeah i mean every now like i said every like month and a half my my algorithm just becomes like we're gonna make you cry and fucking hard and fat dude like there was one where it was like and i've seen this sentiment like other people have posted it as well and it's just like like uh you know like the the the music for oh you've never seen inside out the fact that you have not watched inside out bro that first movie is going to fucking ruin you i can't it's going to ruin you but it's like the the music from inside out and it's like kids playing and it's like when i'm 80 this will be what i dream about and it's like their kids and stuff like that and yeah it's so fucked dude you You know it's crazy and you'll get there when you have kids.

1:11:56You can't have kids and like just be happy about having kids. The internet needs to consistently remind you of like, they're not gonna be this young forever, cherish it now. They're only gonna, you're gonna remember this and miss it one day and it's like, I fucking know that. Yeah. Shut up, asshole. I saw this other video. That's it, that's all I got. And it was, it was, it was so nice but it just like enraged me afterward too it was this little girl and she's at disney or whatever and it says watch my daughter who has recently started to experience body image she's fucking eight by the way watch my daughter who has recently started to experience body image issues and questioning if she's pretty see herself as a disney princess and apparently they do like a it's like a man thing yeah yeah and then they turn her around and she lights up and i'm very happy and i'm like this is so cute and then i remember the beginning of that and i'm like who do we kill yeah big time who's causing the body image issues yeah who needs to get run over by a monster truck oh what's going on that'd be a good way to get them yeah uh i am fully those disney videos get me because there was one day ruby was like can i see videos of disney princesses and I was like sure yeah no problem I like went on TikTok I typed like Disney princess and it's you know little kids yeah meeting Disney princesses oh and she's like enamored because in her head she's like they're in movies and they're in real life and then they're there and like I can maybe one day and I'm fucking hysterically crying yeah and she's and all she does is she looks at me and she's like are you crying yeah and i'm like yeah i am dad that crying a big deal i was talking to my dad because my dad went a couple years ago with my my nephews my sister and them and he said like seeing the kids make that connection in real life like it melts any of the toughest people in the world no like i just the toughest people in the world some of those videos are so fucking you know know there's a rule that like they can't break the hug first love that shit good love that bro listen disney we could be critical of of so many things we can be very critical of so many things the immersion that they want the the experience they want to create i haven't experienced it yet but from what i understand the experience they want to create for children going to the parks and stuff like that you have to tip a cap to that yes maybe it's because they want to come back and spend all their money whatever but it does mean something you know what i mean no it's unbelievable dude the videos there's like compilations of children meeting like disney characters and i'm like oh my god dude i'm never gonna stop crying never gonna stop rob zombie never gonna stop but never gonna stop.
