Welcome back to another episode of our Wives are Friends with your host Tyler and Skylar.
Yeah, that sounds a little bit different.
A little bit a little bit different.
Sounds a little different than what we're normally used to.
I learned Skylar.
So still no sponsors.
Yeah, still no sponsors.
Well we took a kind of a long hiatus to kind of figure everything out.
I hope, I hope everyone that's kind of listened before kind of still enjoys the dynamic, right?
Yes.
You know what I mean?
Where you had Tyler and Eric.
Oh, we got Tyler and Skylar.
Yeah, but I feel like your episodes where you would come on and guest host and have
you on as a guest or whatever, like you had...
We had a pretty good back and forth.
Yeah, we had a good back and forth.
We've been friends forever, just like Eric and all of us have been.
Eric's retired now.
Yeah, he's retired, he's now a stay at home dad.
Reason he retired, he has way too many kids.
Yeah, that kind of caught up to him I think.
Real quickly.
It was, I could definitely do this and then come to find out.
I mean we went on for what, a year and a half?
Yes.
Until he finally was like, I can't do this anymore.
Like, you know, you didn't really do much to begin with, but it's okay.
Nah, I enjoyed having Eric on the fun.
It was good for...
Eric's a really good friend of ours.
It really helped bring our relationship back, so I definitely appreciate having this idea
and putting it to fruition.
We should get a cardboard cutout, Eric can put it in the corner.
Dude, do you think kinkos would think are weird?
Probably.
Get a cardboard cutout of them?
Put it in this chair right here.
We could, yeah, from when we don't have guests we could definitely put it in the chair.
Yeah, just start posting pictures of us too in the cardboard cutout of Eric.
Yeah, I'm gonna give it like a soundboard.
Dude.
It'd be pretty good.
I need to have Eric come in and I'll just record a bunch of soundboards of him going
UGH.
Or like when he's about to sleep.
Yeah.
You know, just things like that, that'd be fun.
UGH.
Yeah.
Good one.
So what's going on in the world of Skyler?
Oh man, it is, we're playing catch up here.
It's a lot, man.
Yeah, it's a busy year.
We're in a new year now.
Yep.
2024.
I keep writing on paperwork.
23.
Often.
That's pretty common though.
I think everybody does that.
A long time.
Bullshit if you don't.
Yeah, you're a fucking liar.
But we started, I started out by 2024 by playing a little vacation.
We went up to the snow.
Went up to Big Bear Resort and Mountain and all that good stuff.
How was that?
Um, it was very clustered up there, man.
It was a good time.
Did the vehicle make it?
Yeah.
Oh yeah.
It wasn't snowy enough that we needed, like we used to our car.
It wasn't like tire chains, trucks and all that.
It was cold.
It was cold up there.
But no, it was actually really nice.
Some of the lake was frozen over up there.
It wasn't bad.
Very clustered.
We went to some Big Bear attractions.
It's called the Alpine Slide.
They're very clustered.
Then we had the other one called Big Bear Play.
That's another one.
This has like two being different things.
Well, I've never actually been to Big Bear.
But I feel like that's where like everyone from LA goes though.
Yes.
That's kind of one of the reasons I've been told.
I mean, really, I'm not a huge snow guy outside of town, like outside of our mountain around
here.
Yeah.
We were getting around to all that and we did like an Airbnb.
So now you're in some stranger's house.
I was going to ask where you stayed.
How was the Airbnb experience?
Have you done that before?
Yeah, I've done that before.
I always hear nightmares.
I've done the Airbnb like once or twice.
Never had really any issues, but I always heard like you mean nightmares.
Backup.
Meaning price on you that you don't know about or some crazy.
Yeah.
If you fuck up stuff, you know, there's different weird weird little things they have going on.
Like I think I mean, we haven't been charged for it yet, but like ours was like, I don't
know what was it?
The trash can.
It only put certain stuff in the trash can, you know, unbeknownst to them, they're not
there all the time.
Their neighbors were using our trash, the trash can.
Uh huh.
That didn't really help.
Yeah, that's I mean, how they're going to blame you for that.
Yeah.
And it's I don't know.
But it was a good time.
So if you want to have nightmares from an Airbnb, I believe there's a movie called a
barbarian.
If you see, you see that.
Conan?
No, no, no, not Conan the Barbarian.
That is not an Airbnb.
It's just a young Arnold Schwarzenegger, you know, frustrated in an Airbnb.
I mean, I don't want to I don't want to give a lot, but when you go to an Airbnb and I
did it, I actually did it.
And you know, maybe that movie put something like it definitely like got me going.
I check every nook and cranny of an Airbnb when we stand it by cameras and stuff.
Well, and barbarian, there is some secret little doors and stuff, you know, hidden,
hidden around.
And you find out there's some weird stuff going on.
So I don't want to don't to spoil it.
If you haven't seen it, please watch.
When did it come out?
Oh, the statute of limitations out on.
It's definitely.
Yeah.
I mean, see, like a twenty twenty one movie.
Twenty twenty two.
So but yeah, it's an Airbnb and.
Yeah, they keep finding stuff moved around in the house.
They wake up and there's like stuff like moved around or something's going on.
And they're like, I think those crazy stories were like here, like somebody's like living
in the crawl space or something.
Yeah, no, that's it.
There was a basement.
You'll get you'll get up in the morning and like half your juice has been drinking.
Yeah.
Well, this one was a little bit more perverse.
I think like panties and stuff are getting through in the movie.
Yeah, it was nasty.
Of course, they got to turn it up.
Like for instance, I went to that Airbnb up in Big Bear and like there was two locked
rooms.
I didn't know what they were, but there were more closets.
They were like little closets.
Oh, geez, a little snake camera go underneath the door and believe it or not.
You know, they had a little crevice with the cracker.
I did.
I mean, there's like some black closet.
Oh, but yeah, no, it really did put me in like a whole perspective for Airbnbs.
Yeah.
So go through and start looking at everything.
Make sure it's not a camera.
I mean, it's like that same thing.
If you go and stay in a hotel, they always have those conjoined room doors and you're
always like you like check the lock.
You're like, is someone going to come through here?
You know what I mean?
Yeah, it's for made people and, you know, cleaning services.
That's for conjoining rooms when you have the middle door.
Yeah, you're like, I'll always open it and just make sure their sides closed.
And then I close my shit real fast.
But anyway, yeah, Big Bear was cool.
Real quaint town for the most part.
Very expensive trip.
Pretty pricey up there.
It's a popular area.
Yeah.
And then we followed up Big Bear with we went to the Pirates Venture Dinner in Buena Park.
We jetted from there.
It's like it's like a medieval times, right?
Pirate medieval times.
But pirates, it's smaller than medieval times.
If whoever is not familiar with that medieval times is like a he played nights type of tournament
tournament of Kings, which is the one in Vegas.
Yeah, the one in Vegas.
I mean, it's very self explanatory.
Renaissance fair stuff has these are the whole thing.
But they're fun.
And the Pirates one is all the same.
One.
I will say this.
I'm going to go ahead and I'm going to give it like a look.
I'm going to give like an eight, an eight out of 10 medieval times.
I'm 10 out of 10.
Really invested.
The food's good.
The drinks good.
Well, the food the foods get to like is the same food.
Yeah.
It's like the no, no.
So so Pirates Dinner was expecting for what you pay for it.
I was pretty much bigger portions.
Yeah.
You go to medieval times and they're like, here's a whole rotisserie chicken.
Go for it.
You're like, oh, cool.
That's a lot.
But this one was like not.
The meals weren't as good, but they're more interactive
with the crowd, like like right off the bat.
They're like they're picking kids to interact.
They're picking full grown men to like, you got to play these games.
Yeah.
Now, the whole thing.
How does it if you were drunk, you definitely would fall over and like,
make a fool of yourself.
So yeah.
OK. Is there just like a giant pirate ship in the middle of the?
Yes.
Arena is like set up the same where it's a big circle.
No, it is. It is actually a.
Yeah, it's like a circle.
Like and then you have the pirate ship in the middle instead of like
the jousting ring. Exactly.
No, it is a huge old pirate ship.
So. Oh, OK.
Yeah. Some pictures. Yeah, I took a bunch of pictures.
They go pirate ship.
I mean, that's pretty cool, though.
Yeah. And they do like a lot of it.
So medieval time is like, you know, fighting a lot of light.
And then they say horseplay, they do jousting, stuff like that.
Now they just play with horses.
No, this one was.
I mean, I guess a whole nother genre.
It was horseplay funny comedy, a lot of acrobatics type thing
like circus, a style type stuff.
No, all in all, really fun.
Good time. The takeaway from it at the end.
I mean, we live today.
We live in a very a woke society.
The part at the end, there's like an ending to it.
Yeah, I'm just going to reveal it.
I mean, Pirates of the Inner been there for a while.
They told you they pick kids, grownups, this whole thing.
You're like competing. Everybody gets the middle.
Yeah. So at the end, they take the littlest of kids to get them
to participate in the show.
Right. You know, they do it.
They're not giving these kids real firearms,
but they give them all these toy muskets and they dress these kids up
like the British in red coats and they line them up on the side of the
on the stage and they aim their guns at the pirates like a group of like nine
children and they shoot the pirates one by one.
They have what you're saying.
OK, they have little children.
Children dressed as redcoats from from five executing.
There's like six just just absolutely executing. Yes.
Yeah, they're making gun noises and these kids are taking these pretend guns
and they are just blasting away.
So my my 14 year old son that was next to me
was almost on the floor dying.
You thought it was so funny.
I didn't know if it was the best message to put through
to the society we're in, but hey, it's a fantastic message.
Bring back executions.
Yeah. But to make a line of muskets and shoot somebody.
Dude, that's so crazy.
It was crazy.
Like the whole the whole thing was very, very fun.
And then that last part was like the question mark of,
oh, I didn't know this was going to happen.
It was an interesting twist.
The whole and then they like they play it out.
They're like, oh, the day is saved by your children.
And then they like give all the kids like, yeah,
they're holding their little fake guns in the air.
And you're like, wonderful.
That's that's fun.
That's so funny. Just line them up. Hmm.
Ask those fucking pirates, man.
So hiring squad.
But yeah, it was it was fun.
It definitely is not as like if you would, you know, we're going to dramatize
pirate action. I mean, the pirates weren't suffering.
They look like their makeup was done.
So, you know, probably half of them were gay.
Who knows? And well, you know, maybe a good time.
So OK, so what you're saying is not only was it a firing squad
of children executing pirates, but it was a bunch of gay pirates
they were executing. It's probably. Yeah, most likely. Yeah.
The way they were doing all the acrobatic stuff.
Yeah, again, not maybe not the best message.
Oh, yeah, that that that pirate dinner might get canceled soon.
So go see it while we can.
We can, man.
No, it was fun.
They have little I don't know if anyone's familiar with one piece.
You know what one piece is?
Yeah, I actually watched the whole Netflix.
How did you like it?
Well, not really watching the anime.
I thought it was pretty good. It's goofy.
But then I kind of looked at the anime stuff like because I wanted to compare.
Yeah, I'm here.
So I saw like the scenes from the anime version and the scenes from the show.
And yes, I do like that.
That brought the goofiness to it.
I'll be honest.
I have been watching one piece since I was in seventh grade.
I'm still till this day.
I'm watching it as a full grown 35 year old man.
It's great. I think the live action was great.
The great cast.
They did. They did really well.
For what it's worth, they were taking off and really compacting it.
But I laughed at the Pirates dinner because I'm such a fan of that.
Like where they take your family photo, you know,
they had little one piece memes taped to the camera.
And like then I asked, I saw I said, hey, like I had asked one of the
hostess ladies, you guys get more business with this whole like one piece
thing going on, because it was a big thing.
They even had a whole Santa Monica Pier festival
of one piece at one point got in L.A.
And they're like, oh, yeah, like people come in and they even ask us like,
is this going to be like, what's not in one piece?
I would adventure. Yeah.
But yeah, they were fun.
They were even so little replica swords.
They should do like a one piece night.
They really should. That would actually be very fun.
Like, you know, it probably first get canceled in the shooting.
Thursday nights at the pirate place, we do one piece.
Actually, actually, every
then I just realized every was at Friday night and Saturday night.
They do dueling pianos on top of the deck of the ship
that has nothing to do with pirates.
Well, I go there for dinner for dueling pianos.
But that isn't that there wouldn't that be the night that you go
to the tournament of the or the pirate duel?
You know, you would think, but they said they do do good
with dueling pianos, which I don't know if you've been to dueling pianos ever.
It's a good time. You get a drink.
You go with the right experience.
Very dueling piano.
So yeah, man, good time.
And then let's see.
So that was a new experience.
Usually it's medieval times every time.
Is it right next to medieval times or literally literally
you hop the wall to the parking lot.
So you got medieval times, the pirate thing, the wax museum.
If you're looking for a dinner and a show, it's right there.
The wax museum and then the Museum of Tolerance right next to it.
No, no, those aren't there.
Those aren't there.
No, no, but then right next to it again,
we have we went to the family the next day, Sunday. Yeah.
All right.
Part of the numbers on Sunday, Monday, we followed up.
The wife gets a big discount through her work, through
amusement parks.
We went to what's called down here in California.
We have a Knott's Berry Farm.
And it's I don't know how true it is.
Maybe it is true.
I guess I've never looked at the history, but like you'll go in and they advertise.
It's like their mascot's like Snoopy.
If anyone knows that, they're like, oh, I'm going to go to the museum.
If anyone knows the peanuts, they're pretty, you know, pretty gone.
Not a lot of people know who Snoopy is now, but it's Snoopy and the peanuts gang.
That's like their main mascot.
Charlie Brown.
Brown. Yeah.
But they also say that that is one of like one of the first theme parks in California.
I'm not sure how like how that is, but I will say that
oddly enough, the last time I went there was four years ago
and I've I've brought it up like recently to my grandparents.
Where are you guys going to go?
And they they were like, oh, not very far.
You know, grandparents, they rattle off on stories.
Yeah, when they were young, not very far was free.
You just walked in there and it was just this free open theme park
that you would just probably why it's so cheap to still go.
It's pretty cheap, right?
No, if you were compared to Disneyland.
OK, yeah, no. Oh, yeah.
Disney and presses outlandish.
Knott's Bray Farm, I think you're you are probably looking at like 90 to 100 dollars a ticket
like just for the day. But I mean, so where this theme park?
And we went there and like, man, you would think with the time and day
that we are in now, it would have a better way to mitigate theme parks.
But like what it is that you'll go.
They have rides, roller coasters, little theme attractions, right?
But then they have the oh, you're waiting in line from if you get there when it's open.
Like we our first line was, I don't know, 20 minutes long.
And it increases throughout the day. Yeah.
Because more people show an hour to our line.
You're just like, is it even worth it at that time, man?
Like we don't have an infinite amount of time.
Time doesn't stop while you're there. You know what I mean? Yeah.
So we actually got saved by my brother-in-law.
He's actually healing now and he's in recovery, but he had broken his leg.
Right. Just a little bit back. He broke his leg.
Got in a car accident.
He's like, dude, I can't stand up in these lines like they're starting to get really long.
Oh, yeah, it's kind of like starting to hurt me.
I'm so good. I'm going to go try something.
You get some wheelchair?
No. Well, so this is a thing.
It's a thing that I would like to put out there because I didn't know about it.
Let's say you have, I mean, don't be a lying piece of shit.
I'm actually sure you can if you really wanted to.
But he went to the guest services line
and he was going to, you know, preach on his disability
because he's has like a lamp like that.
Well, sure enough, they ended up taking it.
They don't ask you. They don't get really impersonal with it.
Right, because they don't. Yeah, they don't want it.
Like you're like, I'm thinking like, dude, he's going to have to have papers.
No, I'm handicapping.
No, he just was like, hey, like I have this.
He even was enough like here.
Here's my scars. Like, you know what I mean?
Like, what do you want me to show you?
I'm fucking limping.
And, you know, they didn't really get too impersonal with it.
But they so they hand you a chart.
This is for anybody with like an actual disability, whatever.
And it was cool because now you're not waiting in a three hour line.
That chart, you take everyone that's in your party.
Right. So it's him. Plus, it was like all the seven at the time.
You go through the exit or something.
And no, and you go through where they do the normal fast pass lane.
Right. But the only stipulation is so you rocket like a fast pass.
You're you getting that little.
Pay for a fast pass.
It you could do that. That's also another 90 bucks on top of that.
But anyway, so we did that.
He was the saving grace because it gives time with you.
If you have kids, it works out way better.
You have in between times to fuck off.
Basically, the stipulation was you go to the exit or whatever the fast lane.
They'll sign it.
But in between the stipulation is in between each ride you take,
you give other people a chance that are, you know, obviously not the disability.
Right. If the wait hour every time was an hour in between.
So, you know, you get to eat all that stuff.
Google shops. So in all honesty, man, you go right.
A ride. You go to the fast pass lane. Right.
Right. And you have to wait an hour before you can ride the next ride.
Yeah, they'll sign like swimming.
And yeah, I'm like, oh, I guess I had a way.
But it's like, oh, yeah, let's wait in three hours for this one to move
the next ride and go another three hours.
So an hour definitely beats three hours.
But OK, it was crazy for a Monday.
It granted it was a holiday for most.
It was it still was easy, man.
And then you're not and booze booze are not cheap in theme parks.
That's oh, yeah, it's definitely 20 bucks a beer.
It's kind of wild.
All right. You know, I do have a similar experience and story.
Oh, you want another. What are you drinking?
You mean all these ones?
This is a mine haze light IPA from Firestone.
It's California thing.
And it's really good.
So take these up on the way here.
Typically, when we do the podcast, we have a couple of drink, you know.
Yeah. Loosen up.
Loosen up a little bit.
Listen up. Oh, yeah.
A classic sound right there.
And you. So in eighth grade, remember,
we didn't go we didn't go to junior high together, but you're not.
But Magic Mountain trip.
Yeah. Yeah. Magic.
That was like that was like a staple of like eighth grade year.
End of the year, you go to Magic Mountain.
Yeah. Oh, yeah.
So there might be multiple trips there through younger grades.
So I had a bum ankle.
It wasn't really bum.
It was more played off.
I had the I had the brace and everything for it.
So I.
Flapped a brace on and got into the park and I went over to the guest services counter.
Okay. And got a wheelchair.
Oh, okay.
So me and all my eighth grade friends are pushing me around in a wheelchair
and we're just going right into the front of the line.
Everything perfect.
We're just going right past all of our other friends.
So it wasn't like we were really we were just taking a taking it away from the other eighth graders.
It's not like it was a weekend where we were just screwing over a bunch of normal
people that paid a bunch of money to come.
It was a school paid for it, you know, or whatever.
So we were just screwing over a bunch of our classmates.
But it was funny when we were just going to the front and I'm in the wheelchair like giving
a thumbs up and then I get up out of the wheelchair and just walk to the ride and get on it.
Right.
It should have your friends carry like we can at Bernie style.
No, they definitely have some fun because if you've never been to Six Flags,
Magic Mountain, it's kind of hilly.
Yeah, no.
So that was very they were very fond of just letting me roll down the hill.
Yeah, just seeing where I land.
I like that.
I didn't have an injury before and I was thinking I would have by the time I ended.
Yeah, that young friends are throwing things at you.
Yeah.
Oh, speaking back to theme part.
So something I found out which was kind of a bummer.
You've been to Universal Studios, right?
We also have a Universal Studios Hollywood.
Yeah, California.
Yeah, yeah, I've been there.
They have the live action shows like, you know, you sit down, you have a good time
watching live action.
Then so you know, Waterworld Waterworld and having costars of Waterworld.
Still there still there till this day.
So Knott's Berry Farm really stipulates off of like an old West type vibe.
You know, if you're not doing the Snoopy shit old West vibe used to have I thought
it was like one of the better live action shows.
It was the West live action Western theme show Wild West stunt show.
That's actually I think was called.
Okay, it's great.
Do they have little you know, the mini guns old school stuff.
I'm sitting there like a jackass.
The whole goddamn theme park time and I'm like, where are the little theme park maps?
You know what I mean?
So now being on your phone, it's a QR code didn't know that.
Well, then I asked Lee, I said, well, it doesn't show the times here for the Wild West
show and they told me they don't they no longer have that because it's not family
friendly and I'm like, man, you guys are cowboying it up here.
Like what are we doing?
I know it had shooting and stuff like that.
So it is a crap.
They took it away and I'm like, dude, like have you seen Waterworld?
Waterworld's rip and people are on fire.
They shoot cannons at people.
I'm like, dude, they know I'm kind of like, are we doing that now in a society?
We're taking away live action.
Little stuff.
Come on.
That makes me not want to go to not very far.
No, it's a bummer.
If they do that, if Universal Studios took away Waterworld as long as lasted, I'm going
to be so bummed out.
Like I would hate to go there.
So yeah, if they were to take out Waterworld, it would have to be replaced with a show
that was equally or better.
It couldn't be like some PC woke or they're not shooting nobody because that's you go
for the action, man.
Oh, yeah.
Explosions and you feel the fire if you're close and they hit water.
Yeah, they throw water on you.
So that's what we need to watch.
We need to watch Waterworld.
In the next episode, we need to come on and fully review Waterworld.
Live episode from Waterworld live action.
Yes, I will put my I will fill my room.
A room here that we do the podcast with water and then we will seal it.
I do wonders for your carpet.
Yeah, that'd be great.
I'll mold in here later on.
I'll seal the door with flex seal like that and then seal the everything.
I'll flex seal the entire inside of the room.
And why don't we just get like two kiddie pulls and sit in them and just record like
that.
I don't think electronics and water probably don't go together.
No, they probably don't.
We can get some little, you know, floaties.
I think there's a few stories of people, you know, throwing toasters and bathtubs
that don't usually end well.
I suppose they don't make toast in the bath.
Or blow dry your hair.
No, man.
I just I that was a bummer for me as me going there forever.
I was like, you're looking forward to it.
You're like, what are we doing?
We're have you ever been to like one of those like ghost towns?
Oh, yeah, but they do like the Wild West show at noon.
Like they did that.
So they did do a small little.
But they say shotguns.
No, they just yelled at each other.
They said there's a duel in front of this fake saloon and it's such a size.
And I'm like, cool.
But granted they had gun props, but were they shot ever?
No, not once.
They just yelled at each other.
They talked each other out of the duel.
It made me sad.
I would have just asked for my money back.
And granted I was drinking quite.
Did you yell at him?
Oh, yeah.
No, I was like, come on, shoot him.
Shoot him?
Yeah, quit letting him talk.
Shoot him.
Oh, man, makes me want to watch like Tombstone or something.
Yeah, they're not talking during duels.
Come on.
We're doing.
Oh, dude, that's well, I hope I like I said again, Waterworld Universal
Studios, please, please, please, please keep Waterworld forever.
Never because I feel like every time I go back there, I'm like a fossil
and things are just getting there.
You know, they're they're changing things, man.
I used to go right back to the future.
Now it's Simpsons.
A lot of stuff.
I don't even know if the Terminator is there anymore.
Is the Terminator still there?
Universal?
Yeah.
I don't know, dude, a lot of stuff is taking away.
Yeah.
Well, I actually funny thing I went there.
I mean, they don't do the show that they remember they used to do
that.
Yeah, they don't do that show anymore.
Yeah, that's bullshit.
And it's great.
I think they've replaced it with other thing.
I mean, there's a lot of things at Universal that people just
don't probably was it doesn't click with them.
You got the Blues Brothers.
I remember one time.
So I went to Universal Studios and we did the Halloween Horror
Nights.
Yes, I've been to that a couple times when I was younger.
I haven't gone recent years, but there's a while back and we're
going to we're standing line.
They're doing this theater thing and I don't remember.
I don't think I knew what it was and we were going like, oh
cool.
It's like the theater, you know, let's go to get in this line.
And so we go and we get into the theater where the where they
did the Terminator thing where it was like 40, you know, yeah.
And so we're sitting there.
That's great.
And we're going and then the music for Rocky Horror Picture
Show starts.
I went, oh God, no.
And then a bunch of dudes in drag just started running down
the down the aisles.
I'm like.
I think we're in the wrong place.
I feel like now like maybe it might just be like a bunch of
Karens and woke people you running at you.
You're doing life wrong.
It was some dude that like was the main character.
It was done up.
He was casted to that.
He looks like like Tim Curry.
You know, imagine if Tim Curry would have came back in a
different show.
I'll be honest.
It's all drag.
I would have been into it though.
I mean, all right, sure.
Yeah, Tim Curry did fuck it.
Pulled it off.
I'm surprised he wasn't dragging Home Alone 2.
I'm just saying.
I mean, he could have been.
He probably had his lingerie out underneath his suit.
Oh, lingerie underneath the suit.
Who knows?
Who knows, man?
So it's been it's been a while since we've recorded, you know,
we took a hiatus and all this kind of stuff going on.
So I have kind of some funny stories and things that maybe
we'll sprinkle in some of these future episodes where because
I don't want to tell all.
No, we can't go all rough about but we did.
I did have this one instance where I don't know if you know,
but in I want to say in November was the official ending
Netflix's DVD service.
Oh, yeah.
No, I know.
Right.
And that was still going on.
No box.
Redbox is the one up on him right now.
Nobody.
Nobody knew that the Netflix was still the DVDs.
Yeah, they ended it in like the beginning of November.
So Danielle, we go to the go to the post office.
Danielle was in to drop something off.
I'm sitting outside the car.
She comes in and goes comes out and goes, you'll never guess
what I thought.
This old man barely could walk.
Goes and turns in his last ever Netflix DVDs, the post office.
That's mind blowing.
How old was this man?
I saw him get back in his car.
She's a that's the guy and didn't drive very well.
I don't know.
Probably 80s.
So what?
70s 80s.
What do you think his last DVD?
Do you think the movie was?
Yeah.
What do you think it was?
Because I'm going to tell you right now, that's a more to the
times old man because my grandparents don't even fucking
know what Netflix is.
But that means he never swapped over to the streaming service.
He has been doing DVDs since it was DVD.
What's his last DVD?
Let's call it out right now.
If he's old enough, man, I don't know, dude.
I'm going to say unless he's trying to live in his high time
smoking the bandit.
Okay.
In the very thing is smoking the bandit.
I think it was some raunchy in comedy where there was lots of
boobs.
Probably perverted.
I mean, it might be dude.
Is it American pie?
Yeah, just American pie.
I can play lately American pie.
It would be two ways or it could be like die hard for the
thousandth time that he just keeps getting any baby dude.
Like buy the DVD at this point.
At the con.
Yeah, maybe maybe is a Trekkie.
Maybe dude.
I don't know.
That's a toughie.
I wish Danielle would have asked him what it was.
Yeah, like, hey, what is that?
Wait, what DVD is that?
Yeah, you remember the days when Netflix was just DVDs.
Oh, yeah, I did.
I used to take the copyright.
I had a program on my computer that moved the copyright off
of them.
Burn it and then just burn them and I would just send it
right back and then get new ones and just do like that.
Everybody was burning.
Oh, yeah, dude.
Those times didn't burning that burning music and a whole
a whole thing.
I'm just better and simpler back then.
We're but we were also younger.
So we have less responsibility.
So maybe just seemed that way.
So you don't feel like that could be like a thing today.
Like if we were old as old as we are now and that was still
going on.
I feel like it would still be good.
It was to be fine.
What burning?
Sorry, not that it's fine.
No, I just feel like those things like shouldn't have
disappeared in the first place.
They should be here.
Oh, yeah, like burning DVDs.
Well, just things evolve, right?
So everything went digital.
I see that too.
And we mean me and Tyler also live in California and our
inflation.
Oh, and he's wild here.
I don't even that's a rabbit hole.
We do not need to go into we can just add.
So like again, if you want to sponsor the show, it'd be great
and give us a little bit extra income.
That'd be great.
Good time.
We're not beggars over here.
We're not beggars, but we are begging.
You're begging.
I mean, come on sponsors.
I mean at this point, I'm willing to take a sponsor from
fleshlight.
Yeah, no really anything.
I mean, I would be down one of the local strip clubs also
fine.
I would love a butcher shop.
Maybe a meat.
I don't even need free.
I was talking about different meat colors were in different
pages, but it's fine.
Cool.
I'm just kind of hungry.
Go strip club.
You want to be sponsored by a strip club strip club only
or we could beat our meat only the only way I would accept
a sponsorship from a strip club is if we record in the
strip club, it would be good in a special area of the
strip club while like on a Friday night.
I like that.
We should you know what we should just volunteer as strip
club DJs.
Just do it right.
Yeah, we should be the host right then and there.
That's the only way I'd be like, it would be okay.
Funny.
I will you know, whatever strip club like brought to you
by and then you say this your club, but I want to be
a record there or we could just be on topic and be like,
oh yeah, man.
Oh, yeah.
How was that a football game?
Oh and Tammy's on stage.
All right.
Everybody tip Tammy, you know, it's not ever a Tammy.
Yeah, maybe I don't know.
Slammy Tammy's on.
Oh, Slammy Tam.
All right.
It would be like destiny coming up.
Yeah.
All right.
She brought some toys.
Here we go.
Look out.
Somebody's got some singles.
Yeah.
Oh no.
Oh, it looks like we have a couple birthdays in the
audience.
Could you imagine you do it a little like, you know, like
the announcers of dodgeball, you know, to be
like we're just like recording the podcast while making
the announcements.
Someone's leaving.
No one's doing their job.
I don't know.
Somebody wants to get serviced.
Who knows?
I mean, I guess at the podcast, you know, or podcasting
eventually it craps out eventually like a strip club
DJ blue light special two for one on dances you for one
for one kind of a rip.
Half a song.
Yes, they just shorten it to 10 minutes like when I get
your money's worth play play master puppets.
After puppets by Metallica.
I'll never get off you and they'll hate you for life.
Master.
I hate you.
Now where your best pair of gym shorts, let's go.
Well money.
That's that'd be hilarious.
It was never podcast recorded.
I would have to be right.
I don't think I don't know.
I yeah probably recorded in a strip club.
I mean we could sell it to other places dude.
We could like sell it to our little local museum and be
like, yeah, we're going to do like this historical podcast
and just not do it and just go out the rails on it.
Girl.
Yeah, we're taking questions.
Anybody have any questions out there?
What about the kids over there making making the corn?
That's over there, you know, the corn tortillas on a field
trip.
Oh damn, we just do all these different venues like we're
at like one of the like Santa Barbara missions like they're
in a field trip like yeah.
These kids over here.
They're making a candles.
Yeah, they're making beeswax candles.
Yeah.
That'd be fun.
It would be.
Just can't like narrate life.
But for real, I mean, it'd be good time.
That'd be funny.
A lot of local sponsors.
Come on.
Local would be cool.
Jump on in.
Local would be cool.
But like I said, I wouldn't wouldn't want like I don't
even need free stuff.
Just give me a discount.
There you go.
Little discount.
It's like a discount.
Okay, so I'm saying butcher shop.
We'll meet discount.
I've been in like a meat discount by a bunch of tri tips
or here you go.
Rebuys discount.
Wear a hat that says it.
Brought to you by Billy Bob's butcher shop.
Brought to you by Omaha Steaks.
Brought to you by Deja Vu.
Deja Vu.
Different type of meat there.
Sapphire Club.
Oh, every time every time.
Drink before.
Yeah, drink before you go.
Go ahead and pregame.
No booze.
There's no booze here.
Oh boo.
We actually don't have any of those in town.
Local strip clubs.
We do not have any booze ones.
No booze ones, man.
That's like an LA and a Vegas thing.
Are they fully nude?
Booze ones?
No, no.
It's only top.
Why?
Or a booze?
No, believe it or not, if we take it back and we're going to go on the strip club tangent.
Best steak I've ever had.
Plan B, strip club, Los Angeles.
And steak while you get danced on.
Well, I mean, don't knock until you try it.
Okay.
I don't know if I'm gonna ever try it, but.
Go there.
Go there and somebody hit us back.
You know what?
That was fucking good.
Really good.
You might not have the best.
You got to get a good strip.
I compliment it. Please don't.
So somebody might fart on you or something.
We went to today.
Actually, we went to breakfast.
Then after breakfast, we kind of had this thing where it was like, we've been kind of talking about getting a dog.
So we were like, hey, let's kind of right, but down the street, let's stop at the shelter.
And Austin's kind of been really excited about it and stuff like that.
Cool.
We stop at the shelter.
Look, our local shelter.
We start, we walk in.
I don't know if you've ever been in a dog shelter.
Have.
It's the worst fucking smell.
I smell in your life.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah, man.
So we literally.
It's like wet dog, but intensified.
Dude, no.
So we walk.
No, dude, this shit and piss.
Oh, yeah.
We walk in through the double doors where they have all the dog kennels.
It was like a fucking revolving door.
It was walk in Austin goes.
It's like she's gonna throw up and we just around and leave.
I go, go.
How was your experience?
Do you still want a dog?
Nope.
Don't smell like that the whole time.
No, they don't smell like that, but she can.
You can even like literally walk past the doors.
Well, I mean what and what Austin doesn't know, you know, she's very
young is that the moment she walked through that red, uh, you know, little
door right there and you guys went back, whatever the stinkiest ones are,
they probably just just put them to sleep right there in there.
Oh, missed opportunity.
It was a horrible, horrible pungent smell.
No, it is.
It's pretty bad.
So you want a dog?
Yeah, everything.
Dude, I mean you have one at my house.
Definitely do not want one.
No, you have it.
I have this one and he'll he'll he's really he's super tamed.
It's really cool.
He shakes and everything like that.
His only dysfunction is that every morning or 30 in the morning when I wake
up, he runs outside and he just starts nutting everywhere.
Just his jizzes everywhere.
You might slip in it.
It's like a whole thing.
Just chili pepper wieners the hell out of the ground and it is so bad.
It's a lot.
He's a good finisher though.
He finished himself off.
It's like a whole why does he do that?
I don't know.
He'll look at you all cock-eyed like you're the one wrong and he's wrong.
He just literally runs outside.
Oh instantly.
It's a doggy boner.
Oh my gosh.
Starts humping the ground.
Not is he's not even humping the ground.
He's staying in one spot perched up like a cat.
Just yes, it's just going.
He's sitting watching.
No, no, I've I've just I've slipped in it a couple times or I've opened my
blinds to be like how's the day gonna look and he's just right there just
all right and close the blinds again.
Yeah, you have a masturbating dog.
Yeah.
Well, they don't have hands.
So he's just he is just is going to town.
Oh, that's sad.
That's probably one of the things actually my brother-in-law's dog at
brother-in-law kind of like here.
Can you watch my dog for a while and then he's just been around like the
last years for years.
So did he learn these habits?
No, these are these are really he's a good type of dog that like he likes
to prove to you that he is really cool.
He'll be dumping rain outside and he'll be sleeping on top of his doghouse.
Really?
So you guys can have him have right now.
Great.
I didn't know if maybe there was the best.
I mean minus that really bad habit.
I just told you about real good.
I didn't know if your brother-in-law is the one that he got the habit from.
It's possible.
Yeah, no, it is possible.
Absolutely jerking it possible.
Brother-in-law's book.
You can jerk something.
All games on.
Is it?
Yeah, put on the background man.
Volume down.
Oh, playoffs, you know, playoffs.
Well, I mean you're the sports man.
You're the sports man.
It's not I.
Yeah, no, I'm doing it for me.
My fantasy football team is the mud dogs.
But the ones from Waterboy.
Yeah, the one in the Bourbon Bowl.
You can do it.
Yeah, I did.
That's mine for the longest yard guys knows there's a bunch of convicts.
Yeah, I do for that.
Let's see the movie with Keanu Reeves where he was a quarterback.
That's replacements.
Yeah, I love that.
We're there too.
These are all my fantasy football teams.
That's why I don't play.
It's actually a great movie.
That's great movie credible.
Remember do you ever watch the league?
I've watched.
Yeah, I've watched a handful of it, but it is fun.
The episode where Rafi takes over because Ruxon has a stroke or whatever.
Rafi takes over the team.
Even though the team was given to Andre Rafi's like screw that.
I'm his brother-in-law.
I should be part of the team.
He's like Rafi.
We cannot draft the Hulk.
Like why this fantasy football?
The Hulk isn't real.
He's fantasy.
True.
And if he shouldn't have limits start putting like random like fancy players on it.
Yeah, dude.
Hike the ball and then Thanos snaps his fingers.
Yeah, yeah, yeah touchdown baby.
Yeah, we're in.
I will get the brand new TV in here.
How you like it?
I like it.
No, I'm nice.
Huh?
I was amiable.
We play football together.
Oh, we did.
We did a long time ago.
I'm well, yeah, it is a long time ago.
Now either way you look at it.
Oh, long time ago.
Used to wet and bleed together.
Yeah, ever shower together.
I mean not in football, maybe not in the locker room.
It was kind of a weird one to shower.
Locker room showers are always strange.
Yeah.
No, if you feel comfortable in a men's locker room,
our ring.
Maybe really Kelly.
Gay.
Yes, be.
What that is that?
I don't know.
No.
Oh, yeah, another episode.
All right.
Yeah, I was thinking like people that like didn't really
I don't know people after high school.
Oh, I mean, I think I think my oh, you know about that person.
Well, I think my favorite is like recently like we've been
to like events or I've like been to events and like people
somebody will recognize me and they just bring up like a
35 year old man.
Now I graduated high school in 2006 2007, right?
2007 2006.
Seven.
Okay, and the people that are talking to me about stuff
I did back then and at this point in time, there are certain
things that are actually getting hard for me to remember.
Like I don't remember doing them.
When you tell me I'm I think that I was a crazy person
and I'm like, oh shit, that's a lot and then they're like
they'll tell me and I'm with the family and I'm like age.
I do have stories.
You remember stories, but like you said, there's some some
things where I just start.
You know, like you try to tell your you try to tell your
kids you're like, hey don't do drugs guys.
I'm like, you know, like I know for a fact, I smoked a lot
of weed.
I'm definitely not there yet.
Yeah, they're drinking a lot.
Yeah, you don't for you don't have that.
I have two in high school.
Not quite to the don't do drugs kid.
Not to in high school.
The dot my daughter's fine.
She's she's really cool.
She gets she actually has a really good look on the world
and she's great and my son is pretty much the biggest wigger
and possibly see as things in me all the time.
He told me something about the other day being sus.
I don't even know what that means.
I'm to use proper English and never to speak that cap or
no cap.
Yeah, see, that's another one.
Dude, they're just they're just always talking crazy.
That's mean suspect.
You're a little suspect.
I don't think that's what it means anymore.
There's also sauce.
I'll see.
Sausage.
Yeah, that's a different one.
Sauce is a lot of sus is suspect.
Always evolving.
Oh, yeah, he's he's an interesting character.
Not always bad, but not always good.
I know we had sling but for the most part, I feel like we
talked to normal.
Yeah, we I mean there were some sling but not like I'm
trying to think of like what came around our time bomb.
Maybe that bomb thing cool a lot like just for answers.
Cool.
Yeah, like if someone's like, hey man, I'm going to go here
and make oh cool.
Danielle thinks it's funny that generation because you you've
done it.
Notice that I do it where people are age do it where it's
like you don't say like, hey, I'll see you later.
You're late.
Yeah, late.
Yeah, she thinks she'll go well, at least my not my generation
knows how to finish the word later and I go you call Starbucks
Starbs.
Oh, yeah.
I'm like late is like, I mean our generation of when we grew
up.
You got to think man.
We were like that.
We were like the middle.
That's the best.
We were the Berlin Wall over here because we got no internet
then internet.
It was through a fucking phone line and everything dude.
And then same thing too.
You have the kids now that they're in the game.
We talk about gaming sometimes.
We were on the like a new age gaming.
We were the come up cartridges to discs and then to online
play as a whole thing.
You saw it all.
Yeah.
Now they're just now they just expected that games have this
and all they didn't used to have this.
We have the the og we were alive for the og plug and play.
Yes, it's haris things like that cartridges.
What was your first system for any s yours was any s so so
mine was a big a Genesis.
Oh my dad bought us any s they first came out.
So we had that first system that like I bought and got
for like a Christmas or something.
Let's say you Genesis.
Yeah, I had say just as a neighbor of mine at the time
growing up.
He had any s so obviously we were jumping back and forth.
I thought his any s games were the shit.
I was like, oh my God, we played Mario and we jump over
and start ripping into Sonic the hedgehog.
Oh hell.
Yeah, I wonder what is it number two or do you have the
two people you'd be tells her Sonic like it was a whole
thing Earthworm Jim remember Earthworm Jim madness.
It's worm Jim's probably one of the weird wippy with his
head.
Yeah, no, the wife just bought me.
I didn't even know the guy that made Earthworm Jim.
But me was it years ago now.
She bought me the graphic novel of Earthworm Jim have it
at home.
Yeah, and I just reading through it.
I'm like, dude, you know, what was that such a wild, you
know, it was a Genesis staple to this is weird Mortal
Kombat.
Yeah, no, that was on both systems.
Yeah, that was a little bit of both.
It was more of a it was more like the any s any s the
Sega Genesis Sega Genesis because of the updated graphics
then it was like PlayStation.
Yeah, then you had a was it my favorite my think my
favorite of all time when you really look back at it is
a now your games are like they've progress, you know,
do all this I'm going to have to keep a little notepad
and you had to write passwords down to get back to your
progress Konami game.
Yeah, maybe it down Nami games.
You definitely had to have written down.
I remember having there was a game my dad played it more.
I think I played it more growing up, which I shouldn't
have it was called out of this world.
The old Sega Genesis game.
She's I used to open it up.
There was a whole entire notepad in there filled with
different things and I'm a little pervert out of this
world.
It's like this guy.
It's a it's a human guy.
It's a game about a human dude and he gets sucked into
like this alien universe and he's trying to like, I don't
know.
He's trying to do some what's that?
Okay, what's that one game?
Okay, okay.
There was red highlighter written on one password.
I remember like.
There's a part where you you crash you're fighting aliens
this game and you crash into an alien sauna weird alien
boobies everywhere.
That's the password for that level.
Enter it.
That's the password.
Who saved this?
My dad.
Okay.
Yeah, my dad was a little perverse to you.
You remember, okay.
So you remember what was that picture?
Well, these are suit Larry.
Oh wow.
That's an old one.
Yeah.
That was a perverted game.
I was that was the the intent of that game is just pure
perversion.
Yeah, I like the ones that are nonchalant.
You're like, oh, this is I don't know where like a Mass Effect
dude.
Oh, yeah, Mass Effect's got some bone times, dude.
Yeah.
I'm getting the characters out.
Oh, you remember like you go to the store you get like the
latest issue of like the game shark or one of the cheat
code.
Oh, yeah.
And that's how you got your cheat codes used to have a
call a game genie at a game at a game.
Sega Sega game shark came later like yeah, I stay at a
game shark for PlayStation.
I remember all those those were great.
I was a way to it wasn't even because back then there was
no multiplayer.
So you weren't cheating the system and benefit to like better
someone you're just in it for yourself.
Yeah.
Now they ban all that.
I'm like, yeah, because you don't want to ruin someone's
life.
You know what I mean doing this stuff, but it wasn't more
they should still make everything still make that available.
It should still be something that'd be available.
It is dude.
Have you not played on PC lately?
I don't know if there's freaking everyone's cheating.
There's all kinds of scripts and codes.
You can run on games.
You know, I took that back there.
There is a game.
I just saw pop up on your screen earlier.
I play it too, but yeah, is that someone?
Oh, yeah.
Seen videos that yeah, man.
I don't know.
It was a different time.
It was the blockbuster years.
You know what I mean?
I like to call those the blockbuster years.
We're going to dive too deep.
