A mother's dream, premium podcast team.

Make it your weekly routine.

It's a good guys.

And if you don't give us five stars, what are you nuts?

What are you nuts?

There were the good guys, they're not the great guys.

Rangers are good to go to the good guys.

Whoa.

benny and joshi and benny and joshi they're very obese they're benny and joshi

i love that let me i just now i now now i now need to oh my god i literally just had a stroke i now need to think about how i can add to it benny and joshi joshi and bendy they are so cute and josh is so strong

You have leveled up in your weight loss to bright colors and I'm here for it.

I love this, Sarah.

Yeah, this is, I was going to ask you, what do you think of nudes?

So nudes are,

you know, they're often a forgotten t-shirt color.

Typically we go in blacks, blues, then maybe you go crazy.

Like this is old school weight loss.

I lose weight.

I'm like, I can't wait to wear a pink Ralph Lauren polo.

That's what I would have loved to have worn.

But now, you know, it's like, I can't wait to wear just like a light.

Do you call this a cream?

Do you call this a light brown?

I call it a butterfly.

Josh, I call it a cappuccino.

all i know josh is that i put it on and i felt fantastic and you're telling me that i look good too benny and joshi wearing nice colors benny and joshi

joshi and benny benny what he's wearing in his background looks like he's a giant buy-in trans flag

And I'm here for it.

We are allies.

Benny is wishing that he wore shorts because his face is going to blend into the wallpaper it is nine million degrees in this room okay beggars can't be choosers okay i'm using the absolute scraps from the toast that's it how gorgeous does this look so much better than those other places it's not even a question it's not even a question and well you tell me this because god bless we we certainly ride the coattails of the great toast the great jackie and and turdy lou yes but you know we you know they they have a vested interest in our podcast when are we getting a New York HQ?

When are we getting a GG HQ NYC?

That is 100% up to Dear Media

ponying up.

Okay.

Like they need to build one and then I can use it.

But like we don't have an LA HQ.

We have Dear Media.

We're lucky.

Here.

I think this is the best we're going to get until Dear Media starts throwing in some coin.

But wasn't Cod going to give you like a little corner?

Well, I have a little corner.

No, I have a little corner.

So this is, I could dress it up.

Okay, so you don't like it.

So now the truth comes out.

Okay.

No, I like it, but it looks like it's the toast.

I mean, I know they have.

Is it, am I tripping?

No, no, you're not tripping.

So this is, though, a different area of the toast studio.

Gorgeous.

Around the corner is Claudia's true toast studio single camera.

I'm currently in the dual setup.

So to the left, you would see another one of these beautiful chairs.

There is a light pink wall behind.

But if we wanted to put up maybe a nice good guy sign right over here, we could.

I could probably ask to paint it maybe a different color, but there's something about the pink that, you know, it's very calming, Josh.

And I showed you this the other day.

They also have this random plant.

You see this random plant?

Yeah, the nerd spot that's over here.

This looks like nerds.

I don't know if we spoke about it on the podcast or off camera.

This looks like a nerd's plant.

I'm showing it to everybody.

And so, yeah, you know, I don't know.

We could paint it though.

Or when you're here, we can use this studio because it's set up for two.

Let's brainstorm because our pod is so raging, hetero, male normative, cisgender, rah-rah, high-tee.

Look at me, I'm a boy.

So I'm

so thinking wood paneling.

Nothing says high T.

Like, look at me, I'm a boy.

Look at me and my batting.

Maybe we do wood paneling.

Maybe we do like a keg like we have something on draft like a kombucha on draft i need to kombucha

kombuchia

nothing just says like kombuchia that's high team men that's what we call it we call it kombuchia

i would love my dream would be if we could make it look like Josh we're in a gorgeous wood sauna.

Yes.

That is what I want.

Those wood panels.

And then randomly we can just like drop a bunch of water on those coal and you see the smoke come in.

That set, that's what I want.

Yeah.

That's what I want.

Are you good with that?

Absolutely.

Our end game as Jewish men is sauna.

It's us eating at 11 a.m.

for lunch, 3 30 for dinner.

Yes.

Eating high caloric, high sodium foods of our ancestors.

I'm talking deli.

I'm talking Golan Heights, schwarma.

I want to have a standing schwarma date every week where we're eating.

Josh.

You're coming in here shaving the meat.

Don't have tahini coming out of my hoo-ha.

I just thought, you know how salt bay, he'll walk up, rest in peace, by the way.

I don't think that those restaurants are doing well at all.

No, they're not, but I thought the actual salt bay died.

Oh, no, I don't think he died.

It's just his business.

And maybe his business didn't die.

I'm spreading rumors again.

No, Benny, you're right.

Schwarzhi.

spreading rumors

imagine a

sharma joshi being sued by salt bay

imagine a schwarma concept josh where you have one person holding it and another person shaving it table side yeah well it's called fogo to chow

sounds sick it's great it exists it does okay

well

I thought of it independently.

No, I agree with you.

That's Benny and Joshi stealing ideas.

Benny and Joshi committing IP fraud.

You'll never be able to eat it because it's pork.

But, you know, in LA, we have these incredible Mexican taco setups where people will literally be on like the side of a street and they'll set up this gorgeous spit and it's el pastor, baby.

El pastor.

Olivia knows.

Yes.

She knows what's up.

And it's their version of shuarma, but it's with a beautiful, oh, this pork is gorgeous.

And then they've got, for a little flare, they've got a pineapple on top.

And the sweetness is dripping into the meats.

It's really, it's gorgeous.

I love pineapple on everything.

I don't think we've ever spoken about this.

Am I ordering pineapple on pizza?

Of course not.

Crazy.

But would I eat it?

Happily.

And anybody that pretends that pineapple doesn't enhance almost anything,

it's of course not a good thing to order pineapple on pizza, but you can't tell me it doesn't taste independently good.

It doesn't taste like pizza.

It's not pizza, but it still tastes delicious.

I love pineapple and chicken.

I love pineapple and steak.

Pineapple with chocolate.

Pineapple is versatile as hell.

Not only is pineapple versatile, it's also the same word in like three different languages.

In French, it's ananas.

In Hebrew, it's ananas.

And in Russian, it's ananas.

Ananas.

How the hell do you know that?

I wish I could get shit out of here.

You get shit out of here.

Why do you know that?

I wish I could get shit out of my brain.

This is why I spend so much on talk therapy.

It's because it all sticks.

It all imprints.

Denny and Joshi talking about Ananas.

Yes, Ananas.

Isn't that crazy?

Someone said that.

No, it's close enough for sure.

And that is crazy.

And I want to know how we came.

I guess we just came, how did we come up with pineapple?

The apple came first, right?

And then we looked at it and where does pineapple come from, the name?

I don't know.

Where do any of these names come from?

Did somebody just like, was it Mr.

Apple who found the apple and named it apple?

I'm not sure, but I would imagine pineapple comes from its pointy exterior, right?

Yes.

Some pine.

Pine needle.

Maybe.

I don't know.

I don't know what the etymology is.

Olivia?

English explorer Captain John Smith was one of the earliest to record the word for the tropical fruit in 1624.

And is that the same John Smith that like did all the apple picking?

What about Pocahontas?

Wasn't he

yeah, but he says more than likely it was so named by the practice of calling a newly encountered fruit apple.

And he saw the little pokey things and was like, that's a pine, like pine tree, pineapple.

Interesting.

Yeah.

And do you think that John Smith is the same Smith as the Granny Smith?

His grandmother is Granny Smith.

Is that the Granny Smith apple?

Wow.

Could be.

Could be.

Could be.

Well done.

Right?

Well done.

And who the F is behind Red Delicious?

I don't know.

Terrorist.

Great question.

I just wonder

with someone like John Smith, he didn't know any Jews.

For sure.

Oh, no.

In the 1600s, your name is John Smith.

It might as well be Anglo-Saxon.

You know what I mean?

He did not know a guy named Moish.

he had never even heard of a guy named moish no moish was not even on his radar john smith you know the sort of like obviously and it sadly it's used as like a trope or a stereotype with jewish people that we tend to be in finance even part of it even though part of it is true right Do you know where some of that they say came from?

And I'm not making a gigantic generalization, but it is a part of it.

Where being in finance came from?

Being in money.

Well, it's because we couldn't be in other things.

That's right.

It's because of usury.

Yeah, yeah, we couldn't be in other things.

The Christians wouldn't let us.

So we did what we did best or we did what we did and we did it best.

It's because a Christian to a Christian, as interpreted in the New Testament, could not give a loan with interest.

You could not charge interest on a loan.

So they were like, If we're not going to let them farm potatoes, we'll let the Jews lend money and charge a small amount of interest.

correct unless you don't make your payments on time then we might have to send you know avram to

break your knees yes yes exactly but that was that's a part of it and it's interesting right like it's more than a part of it it's it's in it it's it like i don't i don't think that that's a stereotype at all like that's the truth the stereotype is that we're in money because we control the world.

The opposite of the stereotype is that we're in money because you made us.

And boy, are you licking your wounds?

Oh, yeah.

How angry are you now?

Killed it.

I've never seen a spreadsheet I didn't like.

Love it.

Insane.

I love it.

But that's also like why, you know, so much of Hollywood initially was started by Jewish people, Louis B.

Mayer and the Warner Brothers and whatnot, is that Jews in New York who wanted to get in Broadway weren't allowed.

And so they went west and started the movie industry.

Yeah, you got to stop not letting us in because we're going to take over.

Okay.

We're going to take over 100%.

Look at the NBA.

Bad example.

I'm honestly, I'm surprised that Jews didn't start live golf before the Saudis did because that's

essentially what they're doing.

Golf is all for the most part Christian men.

Sure.

There are no, I don't know any, I really, I don't know any Jewish golfers on tour.

None.

We easily could have started live golf to compete.

We just didn't think of it soon enough.

But we wouldn't call it live golf.

We'd call it struggle golf.

I'm not living.

I'm struggling.

So dumb.

I love it.

So dumb.

This episode of the Good Guys Podcast is brought to you by our friends at caraway folks you know we love caraway here at the good guys podcast we love it so much that we've shared it with our friends we've shared with our families we've shared it with all of you let me tell you how obsessed my dad a professional caterer is with caraway because not only can he trust caraway's non-toxic cookware But he also loves the colors.

No brands have colors like Caraway.

They're so beautiful.

And when you're thinking about just the vibe that you want to have in your own kitchen, you want things to be beautiful.

When he's thinking about a nice omelette station and an event, he's thinking about how beautiful cowaway looks as opposed to those other just like ugly pots and pans.

You know, he loves them.

They're 100% worth the investment.

It'll make you cook more at home because they're so beautiful.

And they, again, have none of these toxic chemicals.

They're 100% worth it.

Over a lifetime.

lifetime a person consumes at least the equivalent of the height of the Eiffel Tower in microplastics.

We don't want that.

We don't need any of that.

That's why Caraway is the best.

And 97% of Americans have PFAS, toxic chemicals from non-stick cookware in their blood.

We don't need that in our blood.

And two and a half minutes is all it takes before a nonstick pan overheats and releases toxins.

We don't need that.

We shop Caraway.

We have their beautiful pots, pans, gorgeous colors.

The colors are amazing.

We have this beautiful green.

I'm telling you, it is so, as my wife would say, pleny, pleny and beautiful.

And just as a reminder, their iconic cookware set comes with the saute pan, fry pan, Dutch oven, oh, the Dutch oven's amazing, and saucepan, plus lids for all of them, a canvas lid holder, and magnetic pan rack for storage.

It's the ultimate kitchen setup and will save you money versus buying the items individually.

Tune in every week wherever you listen to your podcast.

See you soon.

It's funny because obviously social media knows my algorithm, so I'll get fed these like incredible highlight reels of Jewish basketball players who are in college or whatever completely crushing it.

And I'll like, and my heart will skip a beat.

And I'll be like, oh my God, like, is there a great Jewish hope coming to like that's going to be in the final four?

And then I'll do a little digging and find out, yes, they're the number one player on the number one team in the Division III

basketball league.

Yes.

And I'm like, okay, cool, cool, cool, cool.

This is the problem with a highlight reel, okay?

Right.

Because you don't get a detailed explanation of who they're playing against.

Right.

If you don't know, it's the Maccabees versus the Israeli.

The blind.

The blind.

Today, the yeshiva beat the Braille Institute 110 to 109.

I specifically remember in elementary school, we would have like soccer games and we would always play against this one school that was the deaf school.

We would play against them and they would always win.

Really?

Always shout out.

Swear.

Swear.

Always win.

Just because you're deaf doesn't mean you're not athletic.

But is it cooler?

Is knowing American Sign Language cooler than knowing any other language?

I think that knowing American Sign Language is incredibly cool as long as you're in a group of people that also know it.

Otherwise, you're kind of like signing to yourself.

Right.

It's a very cool thing to know, but I would say that I would personally prefer to be fluent in Spanish.

If someone's doing sign language to themselves, do you say, like, or if someone's doing sign language by themselves, do you go like, oh, he's talking to himself?

You go like a really, really angry, down-on-imposed deaf guy, just looking in the mirror.

A schizophrenic deaf person.

He's on the corner.

He's signing.

How do you know?

I think Randy's schizophrenic.

How do you know he's deaf?

Well, he's signing to people that aren't there.

He's been signing at the telephone pole for the last half hour.

That's so good.

Or so bad.

Do you think they're thinking about this on Call Her Daddy?

They're not.

They're not thinking about anything over there.

Do you want to go there for your brain to turn to mush?

This is the place, okay?

You're going to learn a little bit about El Pastor.

You're going to learn that pineapple is the same in three languages.

And you're going to start to think about what happens when you're schizophrenic and blind and deaf.

Okay, now let's move on to schizophrenic and blind.

It's so true.

Is it true or what?

It's true, Josh.

It's true.

So right now we are, we're banking episodes for when, you know, you will understandably need a couple weeks offer when the beautiful baby soffer Broch Hashem is here.

BH, BH.

What's going through your mind?

Yeah, a lot.

It's very exciting.

It's very scary.

I am just praying that he's happy, healthy, you know, like comes out crying.

Like I'm, I have all of those like just nerves, but I'm more, I'm more excited than anything else.

Excitement is, is, is, is paramount.

And I'm, of course, putting together a little bris.

Okay, so we have a nice invite list.

If you'd like to fly in, Josh, you will, of course, be sent the invitation.

There is no...

No pressure whatsoever.

I really want to come.

You got to give me the info.

That would be awesome if I can make it.

We're going to have a gorgeous spread provided by Acme.

Shout out Acme.

They're giving me beautiful locks and white fish and it's going to be fun.

Baby's first brand deal.

Oh, yeah.

I love it.

Gorgeous stuff.

My dad will be doing the catering other than, cause he's, he's not going to, like, he'll plate the locks and stuff, but he'll be doing the catering.

And I'm just incredibly excited.

I have to write a little speech.

Do you write the speech?

Now, or do you wait until he's born so that you can actually see him?

These are the things that are going through my mind because will I have time to write a speech once he's born?

Or do I write it right now?

But I'd love to really have the emotions of seeing him and feeling him.

Yeah, I'm just excited, Josh.

I'm very, very, unbelievably excited.

And I'm nervous for that cry.

Oh my, the cry of a Briss.

Oof, oof.

Do you want me to,

should I, I've now been to a few Brises, including my own children's.

And I was there for mine.

Do you want me to give you a sample so you can be prepared of what the cry sounds like?

Yes, yes.

Give it to me.

I've definitely, I've definitely heard it as well, but I want to hear yours.

Okay, so they get the kid all liquored up on sugar water because it has the same effects as wine.

Let's pause on that.

Yeah, I hope so, Josh, but sometimes I've been to a bris where they use a plastic pacifier that's not absorbent.

The kid's not getting anything.

What are you, nuts?

Just use a little cloth.

That's been in the sugar water, though.

It's been in the sugar water.

Yes.

But don't you plastic, since when does plastic absorb sugar water, Josh?

I've also seen when they dip the corner of like a napkin or a little cloth for him to sit.

That's how they do it.

They eat very little.

Very little, because they're tiny.

But continue, yes.

Popped up on sugar water.

Sugar water, because it really does, it releases the part of the brain if you were drunk.

So it gets him nice and woozy.

And then the father-in-law is holding the baby.

And this is the part where I turn away and go, this is barbaric.

And and everything i've ever believed in my whole life i go

the people who drink unpasteurized milk are right and yeah and so they do the prayer and then the cut and this is what you're going to hear from the baby

and that's it

that would be a dream i've heard like

do it

This is the kind of segment Claudia's gonna get mad at us about.

Oh, she'll love it.

This is like talking about her nipples.

This is gonna get all the trouble.

No, she'll love it.

Oh my God.

But yeah, it's really.

They fall right asleep, and then you get get this and then they burrito them up in their little swaddle.

Do you know how to swaddle yet?

I don't know how to swaddle.

No, no.

Would you like to teach me?

Yeah, it's super easy, but it's great if you're good at it.

Okay, but it's a folding like a burrito.

It's totally open.

Fold, fold, tuck, tuck, tuck.

Yeah, people have different methodologies.

I'm more of like, okay, first you take the blanket as if you were going to make it for like, as if you were going to go to a coachella, right?

So now you triangle it, like you were going to wrap it around your head.

And then you put them there right up, I would say around shoulders.

So the head's out on top of the long part and then the pointy parts at their feet.

Yes.

You pull the first one over and you get it tight.

You get it tight

and you cinch it under their body.

So now their body weight is holding in the first side.

Then you bring the bottom up.

So now the little feet skis are snug.

Then you wrap around right side all the way around and you're doing a folding, a folding tuck into the middle

and you're you know you're good until like eight minutes later when you have to change the diaper again and the purpose of the swaddle is so that they don't move around and hurt themselves

they feel more secure they also have a i forget what it's called but like a falling instinct where as when they like you've had that before as you're falling asleep where you feel like you're falling have you ever had that yeah all the time it's a startle it's like a startle reflex yeah so as they're falling into deep sleep their arms and legs will jut out if they're not in tight and it wakes them up.

Ah,

very

interesting.

What do you think we used to swaddle them with?

Because swaddling, this isn't new.

Now we use these beautiful, whatever brand you name it.

Like, what do you think?

I guess we just used like sheets, bed sheets.

We've been swaddling for millennia.

Bed sheets, animal skins.

That's what I was thinking.

That's where I was going.

Sheepskin, something like that.

Sick.

Chic.

That's hot.

Oh my God.

Everyone looked like they were in a Ralph Lauren ad.

Can you imagine?

Except for for the sheep.

No, I, I, it, yeah, the sheep,

they're struggling.

It's all going to be, it's all going to be wonderful.

It's so new.

It's so

yut.

It's funny, though.

We have to set up his bedroom.

Everything's in there.

It's still like nothing's out of boxes because we're superstitious like that but we have everything strollers cribs all that stuff but i just realized he's not even gonna sleep in there for like eight months no so we're gonna set up a room for nothing he's gonna sleep with me right no in a bassinet next to me no

obviously you'll do it however's right for you and most people are different I find like we started putting the baby when they nap, right?

Cause they nap a lot during the day in their crib at four months.

Got Got it.

Okay, so four months.

The first three months for sure, though, he's with you.

Yeah, it's really hard, in my opinion, to have the baby in there in your room for months on end.

Obviously, every parent does it differently and they're all right in the way that they do it, but it's a struggle to have them in the room.

And then eventually once they're in their room for stretches, four hours, six hours, eight hours, that's when like, A, the baby's sleeping better, they're more comfortable, they're happier and everything.

But no,

they will be in there way before eight months.

Like they'll be utilized.

You'll utilize that room.

You'll utilize the room right away because that's where the changing table will be and all that stuff.

We also got an unbelievable recliner.

This is the most incredible recliner ever.

I guess it's a breastfeeding chair.

For me, oh my God, this is just, this is just the dream.

I could never, I always wanted like a nice lazy boy, you know, but they're not aesthetic enough.

This is an aesthetic lazy boy.

Oh, it's gorgeous.

I'll take a picture and I'll send it to you.

not to switch too hard but josh i went to a very interesting restaurant that i wanted to tell you about have you heard of tiro asegundo no

this apparently is the oldest new you know new york is on a members club kick this is the oldest members club in new york opened in 1892 italian tiro a segundo you go in you have a Nice meal.

Maybe not the best meal I've ever had.

Josh, downstairs in Tiro a Segundo, it's it's next to St.

Mark's Place in the city.

There's a full gun range.

Hell yeah.

A full gun range.

I had apps.

I went downstairs and

I did target practice.

And you're thinking to yourself, people listening, you can do that in New York?

Yes, because they established the club and got the license in 1893.

They were sworn in before.

I think it's the only active gun range in the city.

Wow.

Isn't that crazy?

What were you shooting?

A couple of nine millis?

We shot, I never shot like, this.

It had no,

not feedback, what's it called?

It had no serial number.

No.

It had no kick.

It had no kick.

The only guns that I've shot before, like clay shooting, like that really kicks back.

You mean like a shotgun?

A shotgun.

You shot a handgun?

No.

And reverb was the word I was looking for.

This was almost like a shotgun, but with no reverb.

It was easy.

Like you just click it and it goes.

Hold on.

It's too easy.

You were shooting, it was like a shotgun, except it was a handgun, or you were shooting.

It wasn't a handgun.

It was a rifle.

It was a rifle.

Bingo.

Bingo.

I didn't realize I was talking to the head of the NRA.

Sorry.

Got it.

Got it.

Got it.

It was fantastic.

Interesting.

And you're sure, and I don't mean to say it like this.

You're sure that it wasn't BB's.

Positive.

That it was an air rifle.

Positive.

Because when you say no, no,

because what else is very rare?

They do exist, but they're more rare is the ability to shoot a rifle indoors.

I can't tell you that like it felt incredibly illegal.

They said that it was legal because of the date that it was established.

You sign a little waiver, which is probably that if somebody else in the room shoots you, they're not liable.

Or if you hurt yourself, you're not liable.

But yeah, I was just as stunned as you.

You walk through the kitchen, down the stairs, sign a waiver, you get a gun, and you shoot at targets.

And I have to tell you, considering the only other thing I've ever shot is clay birds, shooting at a still target, Josh, significantly easier.

100%.

Like it was, it was a piece of cake.

I love it.

I've had to do training for a bunch of different things.

And so there's a famous place in LA called Terran Tactical where everybody goes, like the fanciest people, Michael B.

Jordan and John Barental and Cameron diaz like all these massive stars but then people like me go as well and joe rogan's gone all these people and uh taryn is like the official he he trained kiana reeves for john wick and it's the only it's one of those rare places where it's outdoors and there's all these different targets so you can walk and like clear things and it's not just like you have a lane it's like you really feel like you're in a version of a battle and it's pretty good

him and his his fiancé Tatiana they're they're badass wow wow yeah no this was nothing

this was nothing like that this was

a 65 year old Italian guy asking you have you ever shot a gun before you say

you say yeah kind of he tells you exactly what to do how to insert the bullet all that stuff but wow interesting yeah yeah super cool and i would say that the next time you're here we'll go I have no idea how this person that I went with got into this place.

I'd never heard of it before.

I've never seen it before.

Tiero a segundo.

Fantastic.

Would you ever, the thing that I've heard always about owning a range of any type like this is you have to make your peace with the fact that once a year, someone is going to come in and unalive themselves.

Yes.

Once a year?

Yes.

That, are you asking if I would be comfortable owning a gun range knowing that people are using it to kill themselves?

No, but isn't that crazy?

Like.

Yeah, I would actually think there would be more than that.

Like,

I'm surprised it's only one.

I'm surprised it's only one.

That's very...

Look, if you're, if you're mentally unstable and you can't get access, you can't, it's much easier than buying a gun, Josh, going to a gun range.

They're right there.

Right.

But there should be better precautions.

Maybe you should like have to wear like some kind of a suit, a helmet.

I don't know.

It's a wild prospect, but should we get into some stories?

I'm just...

On that note, this set of stories is brought to you by the NRA.

These stories are brought to you by Charlton Heston.

Well, in the New York Post, I'm so attractive.

I have to wear a fake wedding ring in public just to keep men from flirting with me.

She put a ring on it.

A sizzling hot model claims to have so many issues with men trying to engage with her that she's taken to wearing a fake wedding ring.

Influencer Zhu Eisen insisted that the easiest way to avoid unwanted attention has been to slide the bogus bling on her finger before leaving her home.

She's an attractive human.

Settle down, lady, okay?

Settle down.

Settle down.

All that you got to do.

If you don't want people to talk to you, is follow my set of rules when I think I'm being mugged.

No eye contact, fake phone call.

No one will ever talk to you again.

It sounds like you're too social.

Stop being social.

You can't be hot and social.

People are going to think something.

But if you're antisocial and hot, no problems.

I think people need to, I don't know, I will say that men are pretty creepy.

Sure.

Olivia?

Yeah, men are gross.

All I got to say, though, women are creepy too.

Older women are creepy too.

I've seen it.

I can't say where I've seen it, but I've seen it.

I've seen it, Josh.

josh but men hold the we we win golden creep for sure for sure for sure we win golden creep i agree and is i agree we win golden creep olivia i know you've been with the wonderful ethan for a millennia now but when you you were a single gal on the streets of cincinnat um

like I would imagine avoiding the advances of guys is like something that, I don't know, is like, I don't, I've never had to consider that like, oh, these girls coming on to me, me, like, get away.

What a dream.

What a dream.

Yeah, I can't.

It's a dream.

No, like, every time.

And I mean, it just happens.

Like, if I would go out with my girlfriends, like, anywhere, you know, like whether or not I like, it's just basically if there's like a group of girls that goes out, you're gonna get like irritated by some guy at some point.

Yeah, so lots of that.

It just kind of happens.

It's awful, but you deal with it.

It's awful.

I just wanna, I

to pose a question, Josh.

As men who have, I guess you as a A-list celebrity in your 20s, okay, maybe you had significant advances, were treated like a doll.

I'm just saying for a day, for one singular day,

men being hit on by women, I think it would...

It would be exciting for one day.

Then I'm sure it gets old.

But here's a rebuttal.

Here's my rebuttal.

And Olivia, you be the decider.

Imagine, though, let's make that day.

Yes.

This is what I would imagine most women feel.

And Olivia, please give me counterpoint if I'm completely off base here, because I realize I'm probably,

I have no basis to talk about it.

Imagine if...

80 to 90% of the people hitting on you that day, you had no interest in, and you had a small fear that they could overpower you.

That's the difference.

Exactly.

You're right.

Yeah.

That's the over, the overpowering men are scary thing

is real.

So let's say, Josh, that in this world, I'm exclusively being hit on by seven-foot women.

You're getting hit on by Ronda Rousey.

You're getting hit on by

Amanda Nunes.

Oh, Lisa Leslie.

Yes, Cheryl Swoops.

By the whole WNBA.

Yes, 100%.

Okay, keep going.

I'm with you.

No, I've got nothing.

I don't want this.

I don't even want that.

I don't want it.

The reason I say this and what made it more helped me to understand the plight of what many women go through better was I once was getting hit on by this dude pretty aggressively and he was fit as a fiddle.

And by the way, in the beginning, though, that felt good, didn't it?

100%.

It's great to be hit on by a gay guy.

You're like, oh, thank you so much, but I'm straight.

It's still a nice compliment.

Yes, but that it was the difference.

I remember there was just this one time I was like, you know, either 24 or 25, I was crushing it.

I was the twink on the scene.

And,

and I remember this one guy who hit on me and he was very lovely about it.

And he's like, I just think you're very beautiful.

And I said, thank you.

And he's like, are you into men?

And I said, I don't, not yet, but who knows?

You know,

you never know.

And don't ask the internet.

And then another guy who was like, I told you, he was fit as a fiddle and he was an attractive guy, but he was a creep.

Like, he just would not stop staring at me when I made it clear that I had no interest and I felt unsafe.

Okay.

Okay.

Because I'm like, if this guy wants to fight me, because I'm not trying to give it up, like, this is going to suck.

Yeah.

Yeah.

It would, that would suck.

I've never felt that from a girl hitting on me with respect.

Like, yeah.

You know, I am, yes, 100%.

You're absolutely right.

Have you ever, in your dating days before your beloved, had you ever had to like tell someone you weren't interested or kind of avoid their advances?

No.

No one, like that a girl was like, oh, maybe

like, like, I can't, I def, I really, I cannot think of a time where that's, cause it's just like guys being guys.

Like, I, I don't know, like somebody advances, sure, like, why not?

Like, and I think that that's just like growing up as an obese teen.

Like, you're, you're, you're thrilled with advances.

You, maybe, the only scenario is like, okay, like, you, this is what Claudia will hate.

Okay, you, you hook up one time.

And then after that, like, then they want more advances and you're like, oh, no, sorry.

Like I'm, I'm not interested in seeing you again.

That's the only type, but not the initial advance.

Right.

No.

I'd smooch anyone.

Fair.

I remember, Olivia, I'd love to hear your thoughts on this.

I remember a buddy of mine who was like older guy, apostle that I knew from like 12 step, great guy.

And he said something to me.

that was really interesting in my mid-20s before I met Paige.

And I was like, I was sort of like at the height of my powers in that like I felt attractive and confident.

And, and I also felt because I was sober and trying to lead as an upstanding young man, like when I would have sort of random hookups or casual dating, I'd be very clear.

Like I'd communicate and say, hey, I really enjoy spending time with you.

I'm not really interested in anything more right now.

But if you are okay with keeping this casual, great.

And if not, I understand.

But inevitably, in most cases, once we hung out for a while or we were physical, like some feelings would come up and we would, you know, eventually have like a tough conversation or some feelings would be hurt because I would sort of stick to my word.

And my buddy was like, you know, eventually he's like,

not everyone has the tools emotionally to deal with what you're saying, right?

He's like, but you do.

He's like, so what will be even better than being communicative and honest will be not allowing the person to get hurt in the first place.

And even though you would love to have this sort of casual encounter or like light dating, he's like, maybe you will spare them of the hurt feelings by not even going there with them if you get that feeling.

He's like, that will be the righteous kind of, that will be the highest level of operating is that you sort of protect people from themselves because they might say one thing, but they're really their feelings and their heart wants more.

And I was like, damn, I never got to that place, but I was like, like, that makes sense.

No, it's very deep.

That said, that type of person will go and get hurt by somebody else.

That's my only rebuttal to that.

Like, some people like not

enjoy that, but like, they look for bad guys.

Like, I've seen it time and time again, where they'll just go after the worst guys.

And the worst guys are going to be the ones that string them along and just ditch them.

Like, no, like.

go find a better guy that won't treat you like that, but they won't.

Olivia?

Yeah, I think it's like like when you get to those matters of the heart, it's like your logic.

You can have the logic in your mind at the beginning.

It's like, oh, yeah, I just want something casual too.

You know, we don't know where this will go, like kind of, you know, take it step by step.

But then, you know, you start to get to know somebody and like develop that connection.

And I think for some people, it's a lot harder to separate the two.

So I think your friend from 12 step, like that.

notion that, okay, I think it's, you know, not everybody has the tools to handle that because not everybody can separate in that way.

And I think women are probably more predisposed to developing like those, the more emotional side of things.

And so, yeah, I think it's a, it's a tricky position to be in.

I think the best thing that you can do is just to be honest and upfront from the beginning.

And I don't know, I guess like somebody could say that all they want, but they could still change their mind.

So I don't know.

I think it's kind of a tough, tough place to be in.

Does that make sense?

Yeah.

And I also think in today's day and age with dating apps, people are regularly hooking up after the first date.

And I think it's like, I think, I don't know if it's a net positive.

Depends on what you're looking for.

But that was what I meant before.

Like girls that are pretending that they're not looking for relationships that are then with guys that aren't looking for relationships and hoping that they're going to turn him into a relationship guy.

If a guy's not a relationship guy, he's not going to change for you.

I would just, I would just go off of that from the beginning.

And it should also be on the guy if he's not a relationship guy to be very upfront and honest i'm not a relationship guy not be a scumbag and pretend that he is a relationship guy just to sleep with her but yeah i think it's something you have to like discuss before you even get to that point you know of like going into it in your first time like seeing each other hanging out like without it being awkward which i think is where it gets kind of tricky for people but you know just to be honest and like express what your intentions are and that way like both parties have the information to do with that what they what they choose you know and it's not fair

don't you feel like girls though for the most part will hear that and say i can change them i don't know i don't know i think that's shifting some i think uh you think so i do i think so i know like a lot of friends of mine have had their like eras you know where they've been single and dating and i think more often than not if anything it's like it sneaks up on people sometimes of like oh i actually like really like this person and I think they're great after getting to know them and, you know, spending time together.

But I don't think people are going out of their way to like say, I could change them as frequently.

Self-sabotage.

Okay.

Yeah.

Yeah.

That's good.

Yeah.

It's just matters of the heart are complicated.

Well, speaking of complicated, the health benefits of fart walks, including how they can prevent cancer,

break bread, then wind.

Forget contrast therapy and fireburning rituals.

The latest health and wellness trend embraces the simple joys of letting loose on an evening stroll.

Coined by Canadian cookbook author Marilyn Smith, the so-called fart walk could just be the low-effort longevity secret you've been looking for.

We're going to live to 150, Ben.

I fart all day long.

Going for a fart walk after dinner is something that is going to help you age wonderfully, Smith said.

sharing that she and her husband typically go on 60-minute fart walks after dinner.

While they undoubtedly do this to keep the romance alive, the primary goal of this flatulent fitness routine is to aid digestion and ward off serious disease.

Got it.

So the idea is that you're supposed to exercise after eating?

Yeah, I think, you know, go for a walk after you eat and break some wind.

Yeah, I love it.

I prefer that with a cigarette.

You go outside, you get a nice cigarette, you walk around.

Have a couple of toots leads to a nice larger event.

That's the ideal post-dinner.

And it's a good thing to work towards.

You start with a fart walk and then maybe you make it to like a fart skip.

Yes, you could.

Yeah, a fart gallop.

Fart sprite.

Can you imagine Usain Bolt just

farting?

He probably farts all run long.

Hell yeah.

All run long.

He's tooting.

Do you want to get to our what are you nuts?

What are you nuts?

Yes.

Yeah.

Well, our what are you nuts moment of the week are our gripes with people places and things both big and small.

Whatever's currently sticking in your craw, I'll start.

I don't think I stop me if this has been a what do you nuts before, or I just talked about it with friends.

So there's this new show.

It's not new, but Adolescence on Netflix.

You haven't spoken about it.

It's four episodes.

And the amazing thing about it, brilliant show, so well done, Stephen Graham, is that.

Each one-hour episode is shot in one continuous take.

So it moves location to location, dozens of actors, background.

i mean it's truly a spectacular feat that a one take episode can be shot for one hour straight without ever cutting except we have editing

what are you nuts

just edit it it's a better yeah do editing yeah

we figured it out Yeah, what are you nuts?

It's a lot of work.

It's exactly how I feel, Josh, and then I'll get into mine about Netflix Live.

Right.

Why?

Why?

Why?

Why?

Why not pre-record it and put it up?

Why?

It's not like there's audience interaction.

What's the purpose?

Totally.

We can edit.

I love that.

My what-you-nuts moments is something that unfortunately I do.

Josh, maybe you do.

I see everybody do, and it's got to stop.

It's the texting and walking.

Okay.

Texting and walking on the street, head down, looking at your phone.

You've gone two blocks and you're like, how the fuck did I get to 68th Street?

I was on 66th Street.

It's not good.

It's dangerous.

I am now making a conscious effort to keep my phone in my pocket so that I don't get hit by a car.

But texting and walking, I think, is as dangerous as texting and driving, especially in a busy city.

And all I have to say is, what are you, nuts?

Put away away the phone.

100%.

No, good.

Love it.

Take us home, Ben.

You know what else is nuts, Josh?

Not giving this episode five stars.
