Welcome back to the base Welcome back to the basement yard. What's this? What's this? A list that's in my fist. What's this? What's this? It's something that I'll kiss. Mwah. Mwah. I want to share it with the world. I want to tell the people. What are you doing? Frankie goes, we're about to start recording. Frankie goes, um, okay, I got something for the beginning. I was like, what? And he goes, just go. That's what I had. It was my own version of Jack Skellington.
Oh, that's a thing? You've seen Nightmare Before Christmas, brother. Yeah, when I was eight. What's this? Watch it again. It's good? Do yourself a Fabies. Watch it again. Fabies? Fabies. Listen, words are... 2024 is the year of making your own versions of words. I think the last, you know, 10 years of our lives we've been doing that. Yeah, so, but watch it because it's good. It's good, but... What's this, huh? Guys...
You're gonna bite your tongue off. Go like this. Like make your tongue pointy. You're just still fat though. - Well, you have a skinny little tongue. Like your skinny little cock. - First of all, I do not have a skinny little cock. Let's get that out of the way, all right? - I don't know where that energy came from, but it came. - It came. It came just the same.
Guys, listen, we're going on tour. We actually have the dates today. Finally! And you know what's funny? You know what's really funny? Is that Greg printed this up with like, we need to read this. Like words. First of all, there's words that are italicized. Yeah, this guy. Chill out, dude. He went through. And bolded! Yeah, there's bolded, italicized. There's full on colons on this. There's, I mean, asterisks.
Colon and asterisk those are but it's something like but stuff. Yeah. No, there's no I mean Maybe there's like hidden meanings on it. Maybe like Greg like hit a message on this. There's like one of the lemon juice It's a clue piss. Yeah, you know, first of all, it's not piss No, there's I think you can make like hidden like invisible link with pee with pee pee. Oh
Wait, you... Hold on. I've never tried it. You piss on something and then a map is revealed? No, you idiot. Oh, I'm the fucking idiot now. Like, you could put... Like, if you happen to, like, pee in a cup, you can, like, use, like, an inkwell and, like, write in piss and it'll evaporate as piss and then if you use heat, it might light up. Or, like, it might. You see at the end of that? I've not experienced or experimented with piss on paper. What about...
Like a blue black, what's it? Black light? Blue black. Yeah, it's a black light. I think blue black. Anyway. We got it. You guys want to know? We'll talk to them later. All right, no, seriously. But hold on. We'll get back to it. All right. So first of all, pre-sale.
No, alright. We'll get it. I could do that for an hour, and I don't think that we should. Yeah, I think people, I think at this point people are a little like, what the fuck? So like we're sitting here and we're like fucking edging them a little bit. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You wanna know it? We're just like rubbing it and then running away. I'm gonna fucking put a tourniquet over your dickhead so it... I think you're supposed to do that at the base. I mean, either way. You can't do it at the penis head. Why not? Because the... What's it... Oh no, it's supposed to hold the blood. You can't hold all the blood in your tip.
Explode the tip. Well, first of all, what kind of tip you working with there, cowboy? No, it's just a tip. I'm just saying like it's to prevent the jump, you know? No, it's not to stop you from... Is it stopping you from coming? I mean, that's what I was joking about is like edging a little bit. Oh. It's just like you want it? You want it? No. Pull it back.
You want any of that? Nope. Just pull it back a little bit. All right, listen, guys. Do we do dates first or do we do the pre-sale stuff? We're going to do everything at the same time. Okay, all right, all right. But guys, listen. Most important thing for you to know right now is that tickets go on sale...
Please sale is tomorrow. As of recording, it's not tomorrow. But as of you're seeing this, it is tomorrow. Good job. Confuse them, idiots. April 2nd. Okay. April 2nd. What time April 2nd? Not on here, Greg. Today is April 1st. You're fucked. This is not, by the way, not an April 1st.
It says April 2nd, you dumbass. This is not an April Fool's joke. We want to make this very clear. It says April 2nd. Listen to what I'm saying. I don't want to. There is no time. April 2nd at 12 Eastern. April 2nd at 8 a.m. Eastern. It's fair. I don't know. Greg, you fucked up. It's probably 7 a.m. That wasn't italicized, you fucking loser. Oh, let's call him. Call him right now. Let's call him. Hey, what's up? Hey. Hey, Chief. Hey, what's going on? Hopefully he doesn't say anything racist, you know, because that's what he usually does. No, how he...
Yo, you're live on the basement yard right now. So Frankie is doing everything in his power to disrupt this thing. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. We want to know what time does the tickets go on sale on April 2nd, pre-sale? Ooh, 10 a.m. Hang on. It's a lie. Is it 10 a.m.? He doesn't know. He's guessing here. 10 a.m. 10 a.m. 10 a.m. what? Eastern. Pacific. Mountain. It's 10 a.m. Eastern, right? Because that's the superior time zone? Yes. That's the only time zone. Thank you so much, Greg. We appreciate it so much. Thank you so much.
Have a good one fellas. Thanks. That was very aggressive on your end. To what? Thank you so much. I appreciate it so much. Thank you so much. Listen, April 2nd, 10 a.m. Tickets go on sale. Pre-sale. Go to thebasemeyard.com. Use the code basement to get access to all of these tickets. And we are going to be going on the road. This is the rest of the year. All right. Now hear me out.
There's also general public tickets. However, you dirty little whores, you don't want to be a part of that. Why? Because then those fucking normies out there are going to get their gross little oily grubs all over these sweet, sweet tickets. It's true. And you don't want it. So April 2nd, Tuesday, April 2nd, 10 a.m. Eastern, which adjusts accordingly wherever the hell you are in the world. If you're somewhere stupid like fucking London, whatever.
What? I don't know. I don't know. But make sure you go and use the code BASEMENT. Yes. B-A-S-E-M-E-N-T, baby. And then on April 5th, these get released to the general public. But you don't, as Greg said here, and I quote, but, should I read this, Greg? He didn't write any. Oh, but if you're watching this, there's no reason to risk missing out. So make sure you use that pre-sale code on April 2nd. Go to thebasementyard.com for all dates and tickets. Yes.
He does now. Guess what? This is canon now. All right, guys. But yeah, the pre-sale cold. You know what? No. Just hit me with a full truck. Hit me with your best shot. Hit me with your best shot. There was a little bit of pee that left me when you hit that. That was unbelievable. That was really good. We're taking that on the road as well. All right, but listen. Tour starts May.

And we're going to flick it. We're going to flick the bean. We're going to rub the bean. Take it easy, all right? And then we're going to spit on the bean. Yeah? No. No. That was crazy. Why are people so obsessed with this fucking bean? I don't know. I want to look into it. I think it's just a big metallic looking bean. I don't know. But beans don't even look like that to me.

Is that where the origin... We won't. Yeah, you didn't know that? Like grunge music? No, I didn't know that. You didn't know the origin of grunge? You think I'm holding on to that information? I...
I thought in your travels, you maybe have learned a thing or two about something outside of fucking watches, cute little race cars, and fucking wine. Yeah, wine, you fucking drunk. Yeah, we're going to go get some fresh air in Seattle. Then moving on, we're in Toronto, August 17th. Ooh, international boys. The basement goes international. Which, if that sells out, we love Toronto. They've always been a big supporter. TANOS!
I mean, really, you can't. This is not the way you do an announcement.
But if we sell out that show very quickly, we're going to add another show on that. But it's up to you guys. If we sell the show out on August 17th, we will put another show up there probably on August 16th. So yeah, we'll do two shows in Toronto if you guys are out there. But we wanted to have those dates open because we know that Toronto has been super supportive of us. Oh, yeah. And then we're heading to Texas September 18th.

That's fine. I went with Wakanda. I'm going to use that at some point. I think just copyright, copyright, copyright, copyright. What do you want to do? Get paid. Cause you are. Um, so yeah, just to go over it very quickly again. So you guys know, and also all this information is at the basement yard.com. Um, like I said, today is April 1st. When you're watching this tomorrow at 10 AM Eastern, uh, Tuesday, April 2nd, uh,
Thebasemeyard.com. Use the code BASEMENT to buy tickets to all of these shows. And like Frankie was talking about, April 5th is when they're going to go on sale to the general public. But by that time, you may get upcharged because we can't control people buying tickets and reselling them. I saw that some people for other shows, they were selling tickets up in a balcony for like $200. Really? Yeah. I want some of that. Yeah.
So don't do that. But yeah, just to go over it quickly, May 17th, we're in Philly. June 14th, we're in Denver. June 22nd, D.C. July 11th, in Atlanta. July 12th, in Nashville. July 18th, in Chicago. August 1st, in L.A.,

We'll be coming after that. All right. We don't know when we do. We know when we don't know when you don't know when you don't know. I know. Now what? Dad.
My dad said he's going to come to that, by the way. Which one? New York. Swear to God. My dad, too. I asked him, I said, hey, are you going to come to the New York show? And he's like, it was my fucking idea. And I was like, where? Where, though? Where was it your idea? You want to know something even funnier? I told my dad about a potential New York show, and his first thing out of his mouth, I told you this offline, this is news for you, first thing out of his mouth, he goes, save Lenny a ticket. And I'm like, dad, are you going to want to come see me at any point? Oh, yeah, of course. But like,
Lenny. For those of you guys that don't know, long story. But just like... Yeah. It's great. So this is wildly exciting. Yeah, we're all over the place right now. And also, you know, this is all we have. We're probably not going to add any shows in between this because we just, you know, don't have the time. A little diversity also. We want something... We want you to look at the continental United States and go...
Can make some picks here now listen if you're in somewhere stupid like Iowa or fucking Arkansas tough shit I'm kidding. It's not stupid. I don't know I've never been but Iowa I've never been there neither. Bye. I hear it's all corn is who from who I

You could find it. You're a capable person. But yeah, I
Tuesday, April 2nd, 10 a.m. Go get the tickets. You know, we're hoping that we could sell this bitch out before April 5th even gets here, honestly. And that would be insane. If we actually did that, that would be insane. But if we sell all these out, Joey said he'll let me slap his ass as hard as I can. Bare ass, wet hand. Wet hand? Yeah. What is it wet with? Lick. Spit. Lick!
Let me slap your ass, like, hard. Why do you want to slap my ass? Not for a, like, a horny thing, but just like a power-dominating thing. You want me to come across your legs? Ooh.

We're going, dude. August 3rd, Seattle, more theater. Also, we're not exactly sure which theater it is in LA yet. Yeah, we're still logging out today. That's why it's blank. That's why we didn't say it. That's why. August 17th, Toronto at the Meridian. I don't know Toronto accents. Do you? It's not that. Well, we'll figure it out. September 18th, they delete. They just did theater in Dallas, Texas. September 19th, Houston. By you mean thing. I'm sorry.
And then, of course, I think in New York City. We're not going to tell you where. We're not going to tell you when quite yet. Keep those butts planted to the ground and fucking grab the handles and scream yeehaw. So here we go. Okay. So, yeah, that's that. You want to read through it again? No, I don't. We did it too many times there. But, yeah, we want everyone to come out to these shows. We had so much fun in the first three. So Joey knows me, obviously. You know me. You know me. I am like...
I am excited, but I'm always like... And I said it with the first two shows. I don't think we're going to sell out. Yeah. So prove me wrong, please. Yeah. You know? Yeah. I like... I mean, I'm just not thinking about it, to be honest with you. We're going to put the tickets out. Yeah, I'm going to pretend like I'm not going to check my phone that Monday morning. No, I mean, I'm not thinking about it of like...
To me, it's like, oh, we're going to fucking go to Seattle and sell 1,500 tickets or some shit. Yeah, but no, we're not. You get Seattle. You get some Oregon. You get some Canada. But I don't even think like that. You know what I mean? I'm not thinking of that. I'm just thinking of the city. I'm a little nervy. I'll tell you. So let's see. It should be good. We're going to have so much fucking fun on this thing. And by the time it comes around, also, it's fucking May. You want to talk about getting blue balled. I wish we had a show tomorrow.
May 17th. As of when this comes out, it's a month and a half, so start that countdown. Start that countdown. Get your motherfucking tickets, bitch. Start that kitty cat countdown. What's the kitty cat countdown? Kitty cat, man. Okay. Kitty cat, babe. Yeah. But yeah, we definitely are super fucking excited for this. Fuck, you know? This is going to be a lot of...
Traveling, for sure. But we're super excited to meet all you guys and do these shows. I mean, the first three were a lot of fun. I think by the third one, we were already like... It was wildly different than the first one. And we know now the things that we want to do differently or whatever, blah, blah, blah. It's a lot of fucking fun at the shows. I mean, from what I've seen, people look like they have a good time, what I've heard. And also, we're having the fucking time of our lives up there. And also...
Let's make this abundantly clear. Mr. I hate cheese himself, Greg, will be there. Yeah. Let's make this also very clear. Schmitty Rubs will be there. Schmitty Rubs. Schmitty Official will be there. Schmitty Official will definitely be there. Yeah. And, you know, he's ready. We're ready. Greg's ready. Mikey's ready. Yeah. You know, and, you know, just kind of buckling down, hammering down, doing it. Yeah!
Sorry. That was real gyrating. I wasn't gyrating. I was getting my... Well, I guess I was. That is a bit of a gyration. I did watch Django last night, so I'm like... Django? Django. Unchained. Yeah. How is that... Because they're riding horses.
I thought you were grinding. I'm not kidding. I didn't know you were giddy-ing up. No, no, no. I was on a horse. I thought you were giddy-ing down. You know what I'm saying? No, no, no. I was riding a horse. Clearly. This is clearly riding a horse. When's the last time you rode a horse? Zero times. No, we went to a... That was a pony, bro. That's not a horse. Pony's a baby horse. Yeah, that's not a horse, though. Like a full-grown, kick-your-head-off horse? No, I've never ridden one. Rode in one? Rode? Ride. I've never ridden. Ridden is right. I've never ridden a horse. Rode a horse.
Wait, is ridden a word? Like, but I know ridden is like you've ridden away with something. But that's still unwritten. People keep tagging us in the picture. Unwritten is not... I know, unwritten. But like people keep tagging us in the picture of that hot dog that it says that on the hot dog. 1,000 people have sent that to me. Yeah, me too. Kind of weird how that just came out after we decided to speak about... Well, we always talk about hot dogs. Yeah. Also Natasha Bedingfield. Mm-hmm. So, yeah. So...
We're super excited to come out to the shows. Please, for the love of God, if you're watching this, set your alarm to 10 a.m. and buy a ticket in your city. Fuck. Or a neighboring city. Maybe make a couple days out of it. Maybe it's someone's birthday. Maybe it's your birthday. Come to all of them. Oh, well. Make a traveling band. Bro, could you imagine? Like we're the Grateful Dead.
There are people that follow the dead around. Also, all the shows are different. Just saying that. So if you've got two shows near you, come through. Just want to make that clear. It's like we are also tailoring this to be different depending on where we are. I'm sure that's probably something that many people often do when they perform. But this isn't going to be like what you get at one city, you get at the other. It's completely different. By design, they are entirely unique. Yeah. So pop out to as many as you want.
Whoever comes to the most shows nothing will happen, but we'll appreciate that. We'll give you one of these you'll get a hard salute brother brother absolute hard Yeah, so anyway, that's that on the tour stuff I guess the basement here calm use that promo - was it Dakota's got meant the code is basement for priest tomorrow 10:00 a.m. Bitch
Line up! I want to see multiple people tagging us in countdowns. Alarms. Yeah. Like, I want to see a screenshot of an alarm. I need alarms. 930, 935, 940, 945. Yeah. And then we're going to go fucking ape shit. Well. We're going to go ape shit. Hold on.
Yeah, take it easy, okay? It's gonna be a lot of fun. Take it easy. I'm excited. What are we, where are we supposed to talk about? We're talking about a bunch of stuff. It's April Fool's Day. Oh yeah, today's April Fool's Day. You're a big pranky guy. No, man. I've stopped. I've had to slow down. Oh, you can prank children. I think that's what you're not supposed to do. Prank children? Yeah. Those are the ones that like pranks. An adult plays a prank on me, I'm like, dude, you're 30. What are you doing? Well. But you're fucking like eight-year-old kid. Come on in.
That was a prank. I got him for April Fool's. There was no one here. Wow. I'm on a trendsetter. My tummy's a little rumbly-tumbly right now. I might have been that... Who asked about that? Expired Pop-Tart. I just... Frankie knows they're expired. He's known the Pop-Tarts here have been expired for well over four months, right? No. A whole queue? No. I think a whole queue has expired. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. And Frankie opens it up like, I'm going to eat this. They're expired. It says best buy, which means that afterward, they're just not as best.
So it's okay. But at a certain point, they're beyond alive. Beyond best when they start to look not best anymore, you know? I mean, they're not at their best. They're always at their best. They're Pop-Tarts, bitch. Although, we got to kick back on the Pop-Tarts. They're still in that great debate right now. Great war? What is it?
What? They're trying to become the official branding partner of the Basement Yard podcast. Yeah, I don't know where this is happening. Probably just in your mind. What was it? It's Pop-Tarts, Bed Bath & Beyond. I mean, listen, we've gotten a bunch of inquiries. I just said Bed Bath & Beyond. They need our help. They need us.
To sponsor them. That's shocking. I used to love Bed Bath & Beyond. Bro, walking into a Bed Bath & Beyond was so sick. I've never gone into that store without spending at least $220. And how much of that was candles?
Half. At least. Half was fucking candles because Yankee Candle, by the way, hey, guys. Oh, yeah. Why is it $40 fucking dollars? Play it smart. Play it close to the vest. Oh, they want to send us candles? You know, play it close to the vest and just tell them. It's the chest. It isn't the vest. It's play it close to the chest. To the vest. It's the chest. It's not the vest. Seriously? I didn't know that. I always thought it was play it close to the vest because you wear a vest and it only covers your, like, heart.
It's Vest? No, it's both. Oh, shit. Look, this says play close to the vest, play close to the chest. All right, so both work. So we're both equally as smart and dumb. I see chest. Let me see vest. Yeah, I guess both work.
There you go. We like to give you guys options. Diversity is king. Yeah. Yeah. So whatever. That's it. But I love that. Bro, the times I went in, like we went in for our original wedding registry. Things we didn't need. Wait, do you get a gun? Hell yeah. Wait, hold on. Wait, wait, wait. You didn't know this? No, no, no. So when you get, you have a wedding registry. Oh, hi. Bed, bath, and beyond. You want to sign up with us? Yeah, yeah, yeah. All right. Take this gun.
Here's your account. And you just shoot the items? And you shoot the items. And then you give back the gun. Bro. Or you can do it online, but not as cool. That's fire. Not as cool as going and shooting them. They're smart giving you the gun because they know idiots like us would be like, oh, I just want to shoot this. Yeah, I don't care. Also, did you blind Becca with a red light? No, no, no. I shot her butt, though. Okay. I shot her butt a hundred times. That was going to be my next question. Yeah, well, you got to shoot the butt. But every single time...
Every time that I went to bed nothing on tried to say that too quickly candles. Yep, I Would would leave there with a new spatula or the scoop one that you do like pasta with what's that called? Oh the pasta claw Yeah, yeah, it's like yeah, is it called possible? Yeah, so I would get one of those like every single time Also, sometimes I'll get like a pan because they always have like a pan with new technology. I love yeah, I love pans. I
I do. Like, I'm still trying to find good pans. We love pans. I had like nonstick. And trans. And trans. And we all. Pans and trans. Everybody. Okay? Yeah. But not clans. Bang. The Basement Yard supports for pans, trans, no clans. I did just watch Django. No. All right. He's very clandra out right now. Yeah. Especially with that white hood you're wearing, Joel. Let me tell you. You son of a bitch.
to have a white hoodie on after watching Django Unchained. I don't know what you're talking about. Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. So we had like regular nonstick, but those are no good. The PFAS and PFOS and stuff like that, no good. Trust me. Wait, would you just say PFAS? PFAS. It's like a chemical and stuff. We're all doomed because we've been having it our whole life, so it's too late to make a change. But like...
You can get like... I haven't gotten stainless steel yet because those are such bitches to clean. I can tell you someone has stainless steel or it is not fun. Also, they're not going to look like that the next time you cook. The first time you use them, you're supposed to heat them up. I know. The water, the beading, the beading, Joey. The water is supposed to be beading. I know. I looked up a TikTok video. Okay. And I watched it. But it's like...
First of all, that requires, like now I'm cooking my pans in order to cook my food. It's just annoying. Here's what I'm going to tell you. We did like the natural ones. I don't want to shout out the brand. Whose natural? Pans? They're like naturally coated ceramic ones, but they're like still metal. Those aren't great either. No? I'll tell you what I do have though that are really good. Tell me. The cast iron that are coated in a ceramic coating. Do that.
Do it. I'm telling you right now. Okay. You'll thank me. It's like, it's basically nonstick, but it's heavier. Oh, it's a heavy fucking pan. Like, yeah, we got a couple of Dutch ovens. You know, we got a couple, a couple of pans. What's a Dutch oven? It's, it's like a big pot that you could put in the oven with a lid.
It's all cast iron and it's coated in ceramic. Oh. Like, what's that place called that makes the pants? Le Crochet. Le Crochet. Le Crochet. What is it? Le Cross. Le Crusty. Le Cross. I think it's Le Cross. Yeah. Le Crochet. Le Crochet. Yeah. They sell like, I forgot who it was through. It was like they sell like a 90 piece...
90. It's some ridiculous, it's like 90 pieces for like $4,000. Oh, I thought it'd be more than that. Look it up, look it up, look it up, look it up. They don't sell a 40 piece. Dude, this place is fucking expensive too because my sister one year was like, oh, my mom wants a new fucking like. Your sister loves French stuff. She loves French stuff.
Yeah, you have no idea. She loves like fucking... She loves macaroons, croissants. Like she would... She loves that shit. She always has. Shopping, you know. I don't know if that's a French thing. I don't know. When I picture French women, I picture very tall, cigarette. On a stick. We've talked about this. Dead cat. Dead animal. Not a cat, but like, you know, a cat's always following them for some reason. There is a cat always following them and they're like, come on. Yeah, they have a really cool name. They talk French to them. Yeah. And then they give them like
Sardines which they have in their bag for some reason. Yeah, what is that about and they have tiny little glasses? I saw something was I forgot the comedian's name so I want to take credit for it, but he was like insulting Oh, it's that comedian that that had like that tick-tock that go viral That was just like the girl was like telling him he's racist and he's like He was like yelling at her and he's like I got like a hundred racist jokes in the chamber. I
Don't know there. He's a comedian. He's blown up but like He was arguing with a French woman and he was just like, oh France people are swearing that it is so beautiful like Paris, but it's actually the Bronx Some shit like that. That's funny. Look it up lack lacrosse a how much it costs There's like a giant set just put type in giant set of
Let me finish and you'll get what I was gonna... Giant set of milky white udders. No, don't do that. No, I'm not gonna do that. I am gonna look it up though. But the reason I brought that up was because my sister was like, oh, mom wants a new pot for fucking Christmas or something. I was like, oh, okay. 400 bucks. I'm like, what? Yeah, yeah, yeah. You can get a good Dutch oven for like...
70, 80 bucks. Isn't Dutch oven when you fart? It's a fart thing. Yeah, brother. It's a fart thing. It is a fart thing. Yeah. Before we look up the $5 billion pots and pans, we do have some sponsors for today. The first one being ZocDoc. Okay. ZocDoc is where you're going to

We're going to walk in and they're going to fucking see us and poison our shit. Yeah, like fast food. Fast food? Hey, you want some fast food? Roast beef. Pulled pork? What the hell is this? Probs not. Yeah, why? Also, people that eat McRibs? Psychotic. Crazy thing to be doing. Ribs are not that. That's not what ribs are. Yeah, no. Not at all.
But I also, I'm very like... McDonald's and Arby's are out. But also, we're eating chicken from fast food, so... Every... Well, let's put... Let's make it very... But it's not red. Let's make it abundantly clear. All of our food is poison. Fair. We're all going to die probably because of some food-related thing. So, whatever. Whether it's Arby's killing us or somebody else, you know? Not saying Arby's is killing anyone. Don't sue us. Us? Yeah.
I'm an agent. I'm an agent of the Basement Yard podcast, bitch. An agent? Yeah, damn right. There's legal terms there. Legal. You just spit an incredible amount just now all over yourself. All myself? Yeah, all over your arms and shit. What would you do if I spit in the air and caught it? Into your own mouth? Yeah. Vomit? Vomit?
Disgusting. Were you one of those kids back then? No, I hate it. Don't do it. I hate it. I hate it. Were you like, drop the spit and then suck it back up? I swear to God. That was such a 90s thing. I hate. I hate that shit too. It's disgusting. I hate that. I hate spit. In a non-sexual manner, it's disgusting. Oh. Yeah? Yeah, in a non-sexual manner. Yeah, you spitting? Yeah? Yeah.
A spit and swapping spit is part of sex. Swapping spit. Are you like spitting on someone? Frankie, please. You don't want me to. Children watching this. There are? I don't know. I don't know. Probably shouldn't be. I agree. No, I hated that where it's like they fucking like drop it and stuff like that. I hate, you know, spit, farts, poop. Not good jokes for me. Yeah. And now there are people that like can like unlock their phone by doing that. What? Never seen that.
People can do that drop thing. What are they, an iguana or chameleon? Which is the one? Chameleon. Yeah. Chameleon. It's a cool animal. Very cool. I looked at getting one once. Yeah. You almost got a chameleon? Yeah, yeah, yeah. When? Adult? Adult.
Define adult. 23. Barely an adult. No, but it was when I was living in Milford, and I was like, oh, shit, maybe I should get a pet. Fresh out of college, and you're like, I should get a chameleon in here. I thought I almost got a chameleon. I almost got a ferret. Almost got a snake. Frank, all of those are literally bottom-of-the-barrel animals for me. No, they're not. Why did you not think of the actual animals that people enjoy? Don't you dare disrespect...
Chameleons by saying they're bottom of the barrel and well, no, that's that's fine ferrets and snakes ferrets I I was like, oh these are so cool. Those are very emo animals It would be different and then I heard that apparently they just smell like the fucking rodents They are so I was like, all right, i'm not doing that and then snakes I told you the story I heard with some girl knew that like the fucking snake was like trying to eat her some shit Yeah, can't do that. But also you don't have a sword tattoo and listen to screamo. So you can't have a snake How do you know?
What do I what? When's the last time you've seen my full naked body? That's fair. You don't know what tattoos I may or may not have. When was the last time I've seen most of your body? Oh, recently. Oh. New Haven? Oh. Didn't? We got in a tub. Oh, I was in a bathing suit. Yeah. That tub fucked me up. But you weren't always in a bathing suit, right? That tub fucked me up. Yeah. Also, the steam room.
Yeah. I was sitting boxied out. Yeah, you were letting it swing. Well, no, no, no. Take it easy. Yeah, yeah. It wasn't swinging. You're right. Well, no, no, no. I wasn't letting anything swing whether it could or couldn't. Right. I was in boxers or shorts. Yeah. Neither of these things really, you know...
I don't know what I was about to say. Something about it doesn't qualify you to own a ferret. Oh, well, you know. And then, you know what's interesting is I had done more research like years later. Not more research, but like I looked into a chameleon years later. And like they're not supposed to be as cheap as they are, like at like a PetSmart or something like that. They're supposed to be like those apparently are not treated well and they're like ripped from their habitat or born in like squalor.
I mean, they live, they're homeless, so I don't know about... Technically, they're not. The chameleons? The idea of homelessness has only come about as of the creation of man, Joey. Prior to that, as primordial animal beings, homelessness was not an issue because we shared the planet together. Now, as we have privatized land and residence, it has become an issue, which is theft inherently. How many homeless people have you taken off the street?
Take it off the street? Where am I putting them? I don't know. You know? You? You got a big basement. I live in an apartment. I can't. Oh, you have an open room though, bitch. I know that. It's an office. Is it an office? I saw a bed in it. I have to. Sometimes I get tired at work. You sleep in your office? Sometimes I get tired. Joe Santagato, big business sleeper in office.
That's my... Just move on. Okay. Move on right now. We're going to be moving on. La Croix set, what is it? How big? Expensive. How big? How big is she? This is a stainless steel 14-piece set, and it's $1,700. Wow.
That's a lot of money. That's a lot of money. Yeah. For some pots and pans. 14 piece. That you're going to not use and order DoorDash. Let's be honest. I'd rather do the other one that's $1,500. You get a cast iron 11 piece. Joey's going to get this now. No, I'm not. I have nowhere to put all that. Yeah. Also, you don't cook. You fucking lose her. Fucking Bobby Floyd over here. He made a fucking cheese sauce eight years ago and all of a sudden...
I am going to defend. Shut the fuck up. You know what, bitch? I made hollandaise sauce the other day. Miles actually. Oh, he makes all the sauces. I'm a big sauce guy. What is hollandaise? It is egg yolks, a little bit of vinegar, a little bit of olive juice. Nope. Lemon juice and butter. And then, you know, salt, pepper, garlic. You made that? How?
Mixed up five ingredients and all of a sudden he's fucking cool. What are we talking about here? You gotta be careful, Joey, because it could separate. Can we get... You gotta be very delicate. You fucking losing fucking bastard. You gotta be careful, Joey. It could separate. You know what's always amazing to me? Say something that is so not amazing. It's not, but you're... I mean, maybe you'll appreciate it, but like a bunch of egg whites, right? Mm-hmm. You stir it enough and it becomes like a cloud. A what? I hate that. What are we...
I don't like that because I want to fucking dive in it, but it's raw egg whites. But like, how does that happen? It's like you're, you're doing a bunch. It's like you just put it in that machine, the mixer. You could just hand mix. Yeah. Hand mix it and it whips it and it becomes like, just like, Oh, like what? Yeah, dude. It doesn't make sense. Meringue, I believe is, or that's meringue is when you do it over like a double boil situation.
I don't like any lemon meringue pie. Yeah, ugh. Come on. You know, don't want that. I'd rather eat my shoe. When we go to Denver, are we eating testicles? Rocky Mountain oysters? If there's a game, yeah. Oh, are they like famous for them there? Wait a second, wait a second. If there's a game? Oh, I had them. Like a baseball game? I had them at Coors Field. I thought that's why you were saying it. Oh, I thought you meant like the baseball players. I was like, Joey, what the hell are you talking about? Oh, I didn't know they had them at the stadium. Yeah, they had them at the stadium, so we got them.
And? It just tastes fried. Like it's like fried. It's like a fried. It's like a fried mushroom kind of. Ew. Yeah. I want better balls than that. Yeah. It doesn't look like a big fat nut. Does it though? No. It's like a deep fried thing. So we got to get like high end.
You want raw balls. You want Fear Factor balls. Whoa, whoa, whoa. I don't want raw anything. Like a Fear Factor nut. Remember when he was like, yo, eat a buffalo nut. Joe Rogan, yeah. He was crushing it. He's like, yeah, put your head in the spider cage and come out. When you come out, eat a buffalo's nut. Yeah, it was always like cow brains. He's like, I'm not scared. I'm disgusted by this. I gotta be honest with you. I always, as a 9, 10-year-old boy, watch Fear Factor and was like, I can run through this so quickly. The amount of...
Confidence I had was clearly too much for my small baby frame. I was very confident in like the last thing where it's like,
You have to walk across a building and grab a flag or something. Yeah. Because I'm like, I'm hooked up. I wouldn't be that... I'd be scared, but not that scared. The things I'd be terrified of, though, is we're going to lock you in a car underwater. I'd be like, chill. No, the ones that I figured you wouldn't be able to do is lay in this coffin for as long as you can with cockroaches. That whole thing. That's nothing, dude. I'd fucking sleep. It was like when Tyrone Biggums did it. I could never. Whether it be Chappelle Show or if it was somewhere else, but he laid in it for hours.
No, I could never. My brother-in-law tried to, my brother and brother-in-law tried to sign up together for Fear Factor, but they had aged out at that point.
They were 36. I think you have to be 35, like the oldest. What the hell? You have to be... Ageism in the world of Fear Factor? I guess so. Don't love that. Because Vin was like... He's like, dude, I could eat whatever. Like if they give me a fucking bug, I'll eat it. I don't care. Yeah, I don't care about eating bugs. But imagine for me, they were just like, eat a tub of mustard. It's like... Yeah, right? Everyone else was like, thank God. They got me. Or there's like...
I'm thinking of like Survivor where sometimes they're like, if you win, you get a bottle of water and a hot dog. Yeah. And they're like, they give you some mustard. I'll say this. If I, if like my cash prize or whatever the prize was, was just like a year long supply of hot dogs, then I'd be a little more inclined. But they're like, you win $100,000. And it's like, cool, cool, cool. You win forever hot dogs. Wait a second. First of all, forever hot dogs.
It's not that many hot dogs. Forever hot dogs at the rate that I was eating them that summer. They, uh, bro, I, you had a two week stint that was dangerous. I two weeks. So guys, when we've like really first started promoting dog sucking season in J in the summer of 22, Joe and I were like, we did a friendly bet. And it was like, who can eat the most hot dogs in a month and a half? I ate 25 and I got sent to the hospital.
Yeah, like five. Joey was just like... It was like Memorial Day weekend and they were like, yo, I had five. I was like, oh, I had four. And then like three weeks later, it was like, oh, I haven't had any since. It's like, I'm at 15. I love being at 15 and being like, we need more hot dogs in the house. But like, you can't turn down a hot dog. There's such a good like... Let me ask you a question about hot dogs. Don't point at me like that ever again. Do you like when they toast the bread? Yeah. I do like it. I like it. I do like...
I like toasted bread where I bite into it and it's like a fucking grilled cheese. It's dry. I don't want that. I want the outside to still be fluffy and I want the inside to be toasty so it doesn't get fucking soaked and sopping wet with all that fucking shit I put on it. I like that. Yeah? I like when it sucks up the stuff. Like the beans are like the, you know? I can't tell you how bad I want to have a hot dog right now. Oh my God.
With beans on it. You know what's funny is I recently took the kids to the aquarium in Jersey. And afterward, we were just hanging out in this little pavilion in Point Pleasant. And I was like, anyone hungry? And mom was like, oh, I'd love a slice of pizza. I was like, all right, slice of pizza. And I was like, I might as well just get something to drink for everyone. Fries for the girls. And I came back and Becca's like, what the hell is that? Fucking footlong hot dog. I was like, what? I said, I didn't even have a picture of it. It was a good hot dog. You ate a footlong hot dog? That shit was snapping in my mouth. It was...
Fucking snapperoni. Let me tell you.
Yeah, you know what's pretty good too? Sausage. When you get sausage and peppers. That's why. That sausage is mean, dude. It's mean. It slaps you. That's why when we were in Texas and we got breakfast, do you remember I asked if it was sausage patties or links? Ah. Because of fucking sausage link, dude. They're mean, dude. Oh. They slap your teeth. Bang, bang, bang, bang. They're like spitting in your mouth and like fucking kicking the back of your teeth. I love every second of it. We do have more sponsors. Are we already at the next group of sponsors?

Click around. You'll find it. We didn't talk about that trip at all, did we?
We talked about it on Patreon Oh we did? Yeah yeah yeah A little mimp A little bit Yeah cause remember we Remember what did Greg Young P Shymasay Wait what did you say What did Greg do I'm trying to remember When we went to the gun range And Greg's like
He accidentally hits the mag out? Bro. I think it's jammed. I'm like, I think the mag's on the ground. Yeah, fucking Greg. I don't know if you're like this, but like, I get so freaked out around guns, even in a controlled setting like that, because it's just, you're holding life and death in your hands. You know what I mean? Where's the life? The taking of it. Oh.
Or saving of it. Either way, it's just wild. And I get freaked out. So, like, when he starts shooting, he's the first to shoot. And he goes...
It's jammed and the fucking magazine just falls out the bottom of this handgun. It's just like, oh my God. Also didn't want to tell you. Well, I watched it after we got back from the gun range, but I saw a video of a guy and he shot a metal target. And it came back. And he killed himself. No. Yeah. I was going to ask if he's okay. On the lives? That's how they say it on the internet. Yeah. Well, we're dead. We're done. We're 100% dead. Yeah, it's over. Dead. Dead.
The show's money is dead. Damn, that sucks. Yeah. Funny way to like say that. But that's why I remember when we went and they were like, yo, no metal targets. Oh, good. Honestly, I've shot it. Have you shot a metal target before? No, I've only shot plastic. I have shot metal.
I went to one. They had like plastic bowling pins. You just light those up. I shot with metal and it's fucking insane. Like that? Like, like, like two, like the fucking highest degree. It's like, and then I shot it. That was very good. Yeah. I was shooting a fucking World War II M1.
So I shot it. Who were you with? Ulysses S. Grant? I told you this. My father-in-law's friend. And after I shot the next round, the fucking mag popped out with the... Oh, I love that. Oh, dude. It was so sick. The snipers we shot were my favorite. I don't know about you. Just because conking that... Fucking... The bolt action? I was doing it like this. It was like... And Joey goes, under. I was like, get underneath it. Oh, oh, oh.
Showed Becca that picture. She was like, uh-oh. That picture's good. I was like, yeah, what's up? Yeah. I was... Just give me my flowers. I was a filthy shot with that sniper. Bro, Frankie was disgusting with the sniper. I hit one of the centers and I was like, I'm nice. And then Frankie gets on the sniper rifle and hit like five of them. With some... Ping, ping, ping, ping, ping! Fucking...
That sucks because if we ever have a zombie apocalypse then you get to be on the top and I gotta be on the bottom shooting with the handguns. You were a good handgun shot too. I know, but that's the thing. I don't want to be a handgun shot because those guys get eaten first. I would never leave you alone at the bottom of that fucking building. We'd be up there together. But you gotta snipe the ones. But I'd have so much practice for the zombies. Like at that point I'd be able to just go like, like,
Like I just said, I just watched Django yesterday. There's a lot of handguns shooting there and it's cool. It is pretty cool. Doing this and just winning? You know what you need to do after you eventually get sick of MLB The Show, which we are currently grinding? Yep. Get Red Dead. You will. It's too slow. No, no, no, no, no. Trust me, dude. Because one minute you could be fucking, I don't know. And then the next minute you could be getting chased by a fucking giant bear. Dude, tell me.
I'm telling you. But yo, just doing this. Bang! I wanted to shoot a .357 so bad, a Magnum. I was honestly worried about that. Why? I wanted to fucking... Because those have a lot of kick. Yeah, well, I'm not holding it like a fucking child. I'd be holding that shit like... No, I know. I'm just saying. Don't you make me! Screaming. Just drop to the ground.
