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

What are you nuts?

They were the good guys.

They're not the great guys.

We're just a good of the

good guys.

Whoa.

Welcome back to the Good Guys podcast.

Benjamin, how are you?

I'm doing wonderfully, Josh.

I have reached a level of weight where I'm finally comfortable being clean shaven again.

I don't know if you have your number, but I have my number.

When I'm over 254 and I'm clean shaven, I look like a lesbian.

Not that there's anything wrong with that, but I look like a lesbian.

Anything sub 254, 250, I'm 248 this morning, Josh.

So I decided to shave.

And I'm not going to lie,

don't comment anything, okay?

I already know i look like a normal svelte individual josh how are you but i hate to break it to you you still

you look like you're into women like you still look like a lesbian no but you look like you're into women i i am into women certainly thank god bh bh

there's anything wrong with the other side josh how are you i'm annoyed that i'm gonna have to cut out the first three minutes of this podcast i'm kidding

i'm kidding I'm kidding.

I was like, what did I do now?

I just, I woke up feeling like a million bucks.

I got to go to Tuesday or Thursday morning, depending.

I go to do Feed the Streets on Skid Row in downtown LA, and we go give out donuts and coffee and waters and fruit to the wonderful people living down there, people who are experiencing some hard times.

And it just sets my day off right, brother.

A little bit of charity.

Or it's my, my buddy down there said, hey, we're not greedy.

We're needy.

And i said wow i'm gonna steal that good for a t-shirt that we can make money on i know and then he proceeded to steal like five granola bars i said come on dude

i'm gonna have enough for everyone

josh what is i want to find a charity in the city okay i want to find a good one that's one thing that we should talk about the second is josh should we do a little something again i i don't know what the i don't know what this looks like i don't know if it's a charity i don't know if it's good guys being good guys but our name lends itself to being a little bit more publicly charitable.

Agreed.

Ooh, charitable brainstorm.

Let's do it.

Let's click it.

Yeah, let's do it.

A charitable brainstorm.

Send this to brands.

Target loves good people.

When I'm doing charity, I like to do it in a pair of dockers.

In dockers?

There's nothing I love more than feeding the streets using caraway.

Enjoy these element electrolyte packets.

They're only 10 calories.

Oh, wait, you're homeless.

You probably want more calories.

If you see a fat person on Skid Row, use Robotty.

Do inject them with GLP1.

And it's

dark.

Oh,

man.

We are too good.

All right.

So the brainstorm, the brainstorm.

I remember I once said that I didn't understand soup kitchens and they could feed themselves and I got in a little hot water.

So we're not going to, I'm not going down that path again.

I think that we should.

Maybe we should get specific with the type of soup.

Maybe it just needs rebranding.

A chowder kitchen, a bisque kitchen.

I think that really making the hail and hardy, Josh, of charitable soups,

this is the move.

You come in.

I'm not giving you my slop of the week.

You get to pick from a beautiful board of options.

You want a Tuscan white bean?

Yeah.

You want a mess.

You want a Mexican chicken?

A pasta.

This is the future of giving back.

Oh, oh, chicken noodle again?

Thanks.

Times haven't been hard enough.

Give me some options.

And it will all be made in our six-court caraway pot.

Yes.

I can't wait to get the supplies from Thrive Market.

At Thrive Market, you can get all the supplies you need for the soup kitchen we're opening.

All of them.

You can get everything for the soup kitchen and something for

a loved one.

Anything, everything and more at Thrive Market.

But yes, I love the idea of options.

I think fart, we make, I've heard people say this.

They go up to a homeless person asks for something to eat.

They go and they pick a sandwich, a random sandwich, which by the way is insane.

Okay.

And they hand them the sandwich and they open it up and they say, I don't eat meat.

And to that, I have to say, just because you're homeless doesn't mean that you can't have dietary preferences.

Okay.

Like, I understand being appreciative of somebody doing the deed for you.

So it would be nice to get a thank you so much.

That said.

Next time, could you get me tuna?

I think that giving homeless people options is a lovely idea, and I feel like it doesn't happen enough.

They deserve options, Josh.

What if they're not in in the mood for this roast chicken?

Maybe they want something a little bit spicier, like a Thai chicken or something flavorful, a flavorful meal.

They're in the mood for banh mi.

Why not?

Why not?

Something fun and different and not just like, oh, turkey and cheese.

Like, yeah, been there.

Exactly.

And honestly, I would think that if you're homeless, I don't know enough homeless people to know the answer to this.

I would think that you're, you're probably pretty religious.

You're probably praying to God a lot to change your circumstances.

And so the idea that you might have a dietary restriction, that doesn't, that's not crazy to me.

No.

I mean, you know, now that I do Feed the Streets pretty regularly, and there's a chapter in New York, so you could go hang out.

Where is it?

I can find out for you right now.

Am I?

Okay.

As long as I don't run into my guy from the Toms River.

Okay.

I would get mugged at Feed the Streets.

You should run into him.

I think they do it on the Lower East Side, but well, there's feed the streets in New York.

So you could do that chapter out there, but it's fascinating.

I think that a big thing for me with people, right, when they have staunch perspectives and opinions on things, I think it's because they're not integrating with it enough, at least if I don't necessarily agree with their opinion, right?

Like they feel like a community of people need to do this or these people don't deserve rights or this or that.

I'm like, and do you know anyone who's that way?

And they go, well, no, but when I see it in print, it just, I know how i feel and totally similarly interacting with people weekly who are have fallen on hard times like we have our regulars and you're talking to these people and it just brings it to this incredibly human level of like you see everything you see incredible mental illness you see certain people that obviously are dealing with addiction and you see people who are just like kind of chill and getting by and like not that disturbed by their situation it's really interesting the spectrum of people yeah and i don't know, just getting, I would assume, getting some perspective on how nice your life is is also really nice.

I know you don't do charity to make yourself feel better, but like, there's probably an element to that too, like appreciation for what you have when you see what others don't.

So lead the streets, New York.

I've done some work with God's Love We Deliver.

Great organization as well, some city harvest stuff.

But, you know, I would like to be a little bit more charitable.

So I think I'm going to start doing some stuff.

And maybe the next time you're here, we'll do some stuff together.

And if anybody wants to join us, we'll figure that out too.

Maybe I think there's something fun to do.

I prefer God's Love We Pick Up because I don't like delivery fees.

So sexy fans.

God's Lover We Deliver is brought to you by Postmates.

It shows itself.

This is what we're good at.

It's what we're good at.

Just because I'm feeding you doesn't mean I can't get paid.

These things are, these two things, two truths can exist.

Yes, let us be good at what we're good at.

We are Aaron and Sarah Foster.

We have a podcast.

We're here to basically ask you to listen to it.

We're just trying to help you guys not make the same mistakes that we made in life.

Yes.

We made a lot.

Especially me.

I really went down some dark roads.

Trying to save you guys from that.

Our podcast is called The World's First Podcast.

We are technically the sisters behind the Nobody Wants This podcast.

It's inspired by us.

Because you wrote it.

Yeah, that's true.

But when I write, I am inspired by myself all the time.

Right.

That would make sense.

You inspire you.

We're going to wrap this up.

Okay.

Guys, go check it out.

World's First Podcast.

Speaking of, do you know the great George Jenko?

Do you know George Jenko?

I don't.

I don't.

What a name.

George Jenko was a, he's a comedian.

I've known him for a long time from social media and whatnot.

And he was famously Logan Paul's co-host on the Impulsive podcast.

And he has since sort of broken off and started his own podcast.

And is he really ripped, this guy?

He's in good shape.

I don't think he leads with his...

He's not like a fitness influencer.

Oh, no, I'm thinking of somebody else.

Maybe a Mike.

Did he have a Mike?

Mike Mayjack.

Is this one of also on Impulsive?

He was huge.

No, or you're thinking of Bradley Martin?

Yes.

Yes.

Yeah, he's a big guy.

He's a big

huge, that guy.

Holy smokes.

All right, but Mr.

Mr.

Jenko.

Mr.

Jenko.

Mr.

Jenko had me on his podcast the other day and he's got this huge pod.

And I'd be interested.

I didn't bring this up with him because I didn't think about it in the moment, but he's a pretty religious guy and he talks a lot about.

you know, spirituality and belief and faith on this pod.

And I've seen a lot of clips and I think it's really interesting and compelling, especially because I don't think you hear a lot of people in our age group sort of talking passionately and having interesting discourse about it.

And anyway, we're talking about our sort of spiritual lives.

And I said, like we've talked about, I, my access to spirituality came through sobriety, but it's, it's sort of the old ancient truths that all sort of religions believe in, which is forgiveness and surrender and acceptance and acts of service and

leading a life of integrity so that I can feel good when I put my head on the pillow at night.

And he's like, that's beautiful.

That's great.

And he was like, listen, if you ever really want, he said something to the effect of like, I would love to like give you kind of what I do and my thing, which is, you know, he's Christian.

And, and, and I found it very interesting because here we are sharing sort of like how we have a certain level of sort of faith and completeness that comes from our beliefs, albeit, you know, slightly different.

But there was no part where I said, and trust me, if you really want some good stuff, come over to my side.

But he, I kind of felt that from him of him being like, and if you even want to level up, wait to hear what I got going on.

And that's the part of religion in general where I always go, yikes, like you lost me.

Yeah, because it's very, it's deeply personal.

We've had a million conversations about this, about how one can perceive.

the way that somebody else deals with religion and one can be in somebody's brain and judge that they can't possibly be this spiritual or this in touch because they're not doing X, Y, or Z.

Like that is the antithesis, in my opinion, of a truly religious person.

There's a difference between a deeply religious and spiritual person and somebody that follows the book.

This is just my personal opinion.

You can read every day.

You can go through the motions every single day.

But until you feel it and feeling it comes from doing something completely different, maybe like reading scripture, Maybe it does it for someone.

It doesn't do it for somebody else.

And all of a sudden, I just think that, I just think that there are different ways to get to the end result.

So what you're saying, I completely agree with.

And oisting the way that you do something onto somebody else and positioning it as better, that's where I draw the line.

That's no good.

But showing somebody, hey, this is how I do things.

I wonder if it would be interesting to you.

I'm fine with that.

Not pretending that it's better or not suggesting that it's better better is subjective.

Yeah, it was interesting.

He said something interesting, which is, and I really love my conversation with him.

And I think, and him and his wife host the pod and they're just lovely, you know, interesting people.

But he said, you know, I try to preach every day and rarely do I do it with words.

And basically, you know, I guess he's saying in the actions that he does, acts of service, what have you, sort of like attraction rather than promotion.

Like let what I do be attractive, not necessarily what I say.

But I think there's an aspect of, in my experience, what I've observed of Christianity, there is that preaching part of it, which is so foreign for me.

And obviously Judaism, you know, it's not looking for new members.

So there's no preaching part of Judaism.

So like, I don't know, Olivia, what's your, do you feel comfortable jumping in here?

Do you, what are your thoughts?

Yeah, absolutely.

I was raised, like I mentioned in the last episode, I was raised Christian, Methodist for the most part.

And I remember like being very young and struggling with the piece of like, okay, so you're supposed to like tell people if they don't know, because like everybody, you know, you're supposed to have Jesus in your heart or whatever.

If they don't know, it's like your job as a Christian to kind of share that.

But I guess I always kind of felt like I'm never going to like preach to somebody because like trying to shove something down someone's throat would never work anyway, you know, to like your point.

And two, how are like people in remote areas who have never like been taught anything about like Christianity, what makes them less of a good person or less worthy of an afterlife?

And so that is like, I have no idea what the answer there is, but that's something that I've always like wrestled with.

And so I think it just like comes down to if you really want to like impact people, it's like in what you do, you know?

And I don't think that anything that you say to somebody will ever be as impactful as somebody like going on that journey themselves.

And I don't know, I think every religion is kind of a different lens to view the same like larger power, you know?

Yeah.

Overall, I completely agree, Olivia.

Overall, unsolicited advice, get it out of here.

Okay.

Get it out of here.

And I do this sometimes too.

I do this for sure.

The most recent, I, my golf game, Josh, through the roof.

I'm playing the best I've ever played in my life.

So much so that I'm playing with somebody, they have a bad shot, and I'll say, Oh, you know, if you did this,

and then I think to myself, how fucking annoying am I?

Okay, like for one minute, I'm good at golf and I'm giving unsolicited unsolicited advice to somebody.

And I know that that's an example.

It has nothing to do with religion, but unsolicited advice, keep it to yourself.

If somebody wants your advice, they're going to ask for your advice.

Okay.

Right.

We don't want it.

We don't want to hear it.

We don't want to hear it.

Are you regularly shooting under 80 right now, which is considered an incredible game in golf?

I'm regularly shooting low 80s.

I'm really like, I'm on the precipice of being great just in time to have a child and never play again.

And what do you attribute this to?

Is it your new Svelt body is allowing for a quicker swing speed with your club?

You know what's interesting, Josh?

First of all, I credit the fact that I've gotten a bunch of lessons.

That certainly helped.

Shout out Tyler.

He's amazing.

What I then credit, Josh, is that I don't feel comfortable leaving Claudia for five hours to go golf anymore.

So what I'll do is I'll book an hour in a simulator in the city and I'll just hit golf balls.

But I think I'm practicing.

It's very rare that somebody who plays plays golf actually practices you just play like and and like pro like pros practice that's why they get good like

normal people don't practice these sports like they'll just go and play pickup basketball but they'll never practice shooting in their 30s what are you nuts so like i'm i'm actively practicing so then when i go out and i play i just dedicated an hour to hitting 200 golf balls and feeling good.

So I think I'm just practicing, but I am loving it.

Absolutely loving it.

God, I bet you

don't have to work.

We don't still have PXG, right?

They left us, Parsons.

Yeah, no good.

All right.

Well, we could use somebody else.

They gave my father-in-law a beautiful golf bag.

Okay, all right,

I mean, Ken, you're welcome for your Christmas gift from me and not Parsons.

Cut that out, me.

I've given away too many things from this podcast.

I know.

Unbelievable.

Oh, I have an update on my car.

Oh, good.

We're getting a new car in case anyone doesn't know.

What are we feeling?

What are we thinking?

I'm not positive, but Josh, we are looking for a car, okay, that is family-friendly.

We're looking for a car that is good for having a nice baby in the back seat.

Safety is important.

What do you think of a Genesis?

Love Genesis.

As we all know, it's part of the higher-end Hyundai family.

Hyundai likes Sundae.

I've done a brand deal for them, and it's great.

It's cute.

It's not.

No, they're pretty sweet though, but they have this larger car, the V80 or something, that is big.

There's a third row, but it's still sleek.

I don't know.

It looks really nice.

And we were looking at all of these cars.

You told me Jeeps break.

I don't want something that breaks.

We were looking at Tahos.

These things things are too wide and too big.

We could have gone Mercedes, but Hitler, you know.

So, Genesis, Japanese-made.

There's no issues.

I'm all in.

You know, Japan was on Hitler's side, right?

Everybody was on Hitler's side.

Yeah, all the hot people, Italians,

Japanese, Germans.

Hitler's so hot right now.

All the well-made things.

This episode of the Good Guys Podcast is brought to you by our friends at Element.

Folks, you've heard me talk about Element because not only are they a wonderful sponsor, but they are the leading electrolyte in the world, okay?

Element helps everyone stay hydrated without the sugar and other dodgy ingredients found in popular electrolyte and sports drinks.

What is sugar?

doing in there, okay?

We're trying to get electrolytes, but you're adding an added sugar.

What are you nuts?

And electrolyte deficiencies or imbalances can cause headaches, cramps, fatigue, brain fog, weakness, all of those things you don't want.

We don't want any of that.

Element is the solution.

And everybody in my life seems to be on the element kick.

My sister, she texts me, Ben, I love Element.

She recently started training for half marathons.

She's like, Ben, I love Element.

It's the only thing that keeps me hydrated.

My business partner on Spritz's side, he loves Element.

He'll text me, Ben, I just finished at the gym.

I love Element.

I'm so hydrated.

I'm like, thank you so much.

I didn't make the company.

I do love them.

I do endorse them.

You should probably also write a review and tell them.

But everybody in my life is drinking Element.

I love Element.

Whenever you're feeling, you know, just really thirsty, you know how you just go to chug a bottle of water and all of a sudden you don't feel less thirsty?

That's because you have an electrolyte imbalance, not because you are actually thirsty, okay?

Yeah, so Genesis, I think, we're not positive, but I loved this car.

I'll send you the link.

I would love your thoughts.

And there's this car reviewer, this mom who made a video like years ago.

What should Claudia's first car be?

And she did the Genesis.

And it's a beautiful car.

We looked it up.

We love it.

I love a nice review.

I'm loving car reviews.

I don't know if you go on YouTube and you look up the reviews.

It's fantastic.

Wonderful.

Amazing.

Love it.

So, yeah, Genesis.

I'm thinking there's, there's a beautiful Hunter Green, I think a Hunter Green car with maybe a sand interior.

Love it.

Beautiful.

I would say a British racing green.

I wouldn't call it a Hunter.

I would say, I would call it a British racing green

with an either coffee or Tartufo interior.

Perhaps a camel interior.

I could sell cars all day.

Oh my God, a British racing green with a camel interior sounds so hot.

Do you know this would be my tactic for selling cars?

I'd go, Ben, I'm quitting tomorrow.

Let's fucking take these idiots for everything they got.

All right.

Let's get them good.

Ben, you think you're getting a good deal?

I'm really giving it to you.

You don't know.

I'm screwing you.

I'm not quitting.

You're never quitting a thousand percent.

Honestly, I just jack up all the SRPs.

I don't know the price going in.

Instead of writing 86 on the sticker, write 96 on the sticker.

Okay, then you give them, drop it to 86, you give them 10K off.

No, you know what you do is you make a deal with the person.

you go listen i'm gonna make you pay top dollar but i'm gonna also give you my friend who's a lemon lawyer in 18 to 22 months you're gonna lemon this thing you're gonna get all your lease payments back i got no part of that oh or you could give them just straight cash here's five grand in cash i know you're not getting paid a proper commission knock 10 grand off the top what do you think about that that's reverse selling that's me selling to you I go into you, I give you five grand in cash, Joshi, and I say, I know it's 85, I want it for 75.

you take five okay and i take five i'm coming out five grand cheaper you're putting 5k in your pocket why wouldn't you do that deal listen you know me and i've tried to sell you on this before i'm a big fan of auto brokers shout out my buddy nautic so listen

This episode of the Good Guys Podcast is brought to you by Nautic.

I'm telling you, bro, Nautic got the deals.

If you're living in the San Fernando Valley.

So my boy Mike calls me up and I love Mike and he's like, just like, he's a

writer.

He's just a wonderful kind of like, just straight edge, good dude, you know?

And so he doesn't know from the deep world of auto brokers like me.

He's not living on the edge.

So he's like, hey, I know you love cars.

I know you love to like get good deals on cards.

So I'm thinking about this electric car.

It's like, I don't know, 450, 500 bucks a month.

What do you think?

I said, call Nautic.

What are you going to go sit in the dealership like a schmo for four hours?

Let Narik do this.

She goes, okay, I said, but you can't pull any white people shit on him.

Like, you can't like ask to test drive.

This is unacceptable.

Narik gives you the deal and you run.

You wire him the Bitcoin.

So I call, so I connect them.

And he goes, this is great.

Nari's looking for the car for me.

He's calling a bunch of dealerships.

He's going to give me a great deal.

I said, beautiful.

Next day he calls me.

He goes, so Narik called me.

I go, yeah.

He says, he asked me if I would like a $72,000 electric Acura for $269 a month for 24 months.

I said, what'd you say, Mike?

Did you ask, did you ask Narik if it was stolen?

I said, nodding no's.

And Mike said,

I'm going to look at it right now.

I said, just say yes, Mike.

And now Mike's got a $74,000 car for $260 a month.

Wow.

Holy crap.

That's amazing.

What's it missing?

The brake pads?

It's incredible.

The doors don't lock.

But

this brand new Cadillac Escalade can be yours for no money.

I just.

I don't know.

Scary.

Too cheap.

It's a brand new Cadillac Esca.

You don't get the whole car.

Well, also, just because.

And I'll keep your lady.

This is why.

I hate the Esca.

I get the lady.

This is why you have to be agnostic when buying a car, ideally, right?

Because you deal with these auto brokers.

Electric cars in general have been extremely subsidized by the government and the desire for the car wasn't there so they're offloading them like crazy with like crazy incentives 20 30 000 off but these guys their whole business right is finding out like whenever you're going to buy a car there is a current car company who's got a fleet of cars that just aren't selling and they're going to be heavily discounted so i know you want a mazda so and so or a subaru whatever but go get the accurate suv and pay 250 a month what are you nuts no you are 100 nuts if you were looking for a mazda in a subaru and you turned down an audi okay

what did i say audio okay yeah's are nice too no no no the accuras are beautiful too those are well-made cars gorgeous

family the mdx the rdx

adx hot

i agree

I'm telling, shout out Nautic.

I can't believe I've given him this much praise.

Nobody knows how to find him, though.

So you're good.

They're going to Google Nautic.

It's going to be Nautica.

They're going to end up getting a bunch of t-shirts from Marshalls.

You've done him no favors.

No, Nautic only has a WhatsApp.

I'm like, why are you getting an Instagram page?

He's like, what's that?

Should we get to a story?

Yeah.

TikTok mom baffled after restaurant boots her for letting toddler wander off during dinner.

Guys, I just tried to explain this story for 11 minutes, but the New York Post obviously has something against our show because it wasn't written in a way that I could deliver it.

So here's what you need to know.

Ziggy, little cute baby in Australia, two-year-old, was allowed to run free in the restaurant, checking out plants, saying hi to people.

Eventually, the manager of the restaurant said, hey, Ziggy should sit.

And the mom said, it was a long day.

And he said, maybe you guys should go.

Ben?

Okay, so I don't know.

But I feel two ways about this, Josh.

First, on one side, I think that people should just cut parents with toddlers some slack.

Okay, they deserve to go to dinner too.

The kid was, it seems like, was being nice.

It wasn't, I didn't hear that he was screaming or running amok.

He was just like walking around.

He was like the, instead of a golden retriever being in the restaurant, or like

sometimes restaurants have a cat.

I wouldn't eat there though.

There's a toddler.

You never have a cat.

You can go get this.

I don't know.

I don't know.

The New York, the whole thing.

There was just some muffins over there.

Anyway, what would you like?

This kid just became a part of the restaurant.

So look, cut the woman some slack.

That said, what are you doing letting your kid go and sit on a stranger's lap at another table?

This is bizarre behavior on the mother's part as well.

So I think this whole story is fucocked, and I don't have a good opinion.

Josh?

I think

as parents, you're not entitled to eating out.

That's what I think.

I think

there are some staples, like you're entitled to travel.

So if you're on a plane and the kid gets upset, got to deal with it.

But I think if you are going to elect to eat out, you need to have a system in place where obviously there can be momentary outbursts, but I've been in a restaurant where a kid's been crying for 15 minutes and the parents have done nothing and it just can't happen.

Like it breaks the social contract.

It's not nice.

I would agree.

You're right.

The difference between travel and that is travel you have to get somewhere.

The restaurant you didn't have to go to.

Or go fix.

Fix casual, go to Chipotle.

Yeah, do something easier.

Or the Australian equivalent to Chipotle, Chipotle.

Do something easier.

Or go to Outback.

What's it called?

It's not called Outback, though, in Australia.

It's just called Steakhouse.

Oh, wow.

I'm sure they've done YouTube videos taking an Australian to Outback Steakhouse.

For sure.

I think I've seen it.

And they're incredibly offended.

I'm sure.

That said, the bloomin' onion is not Australian at all, but it is so tasty.

We should take, we should make that a series.

Is there any fast, casual Indian food?

None.

This seems like an untapped market for the chai guys.

Dare I say none?

None.

None.

None.

Can you imagine a shrink take?

Like, we looked at each other and we thought, are there any fast casual Indian restaurants?

And then we thought, none.

None.

None that I could think of.

We're going to clip that and then we're going to have non.

It's going to be a sandwich shop that competes with Jersey Mike's.

It's just called naan.

And it all goes on a non.

You pick your fillings, your meats.

It's kind of like Chipotle, but it goes in a wrap and it's called naan.

Holy smokes.

How good is Indian food, man?

Amazing.

amazing amazing olivia you fuck with the best it is the best it's delicious but i i also i'm a big spice guy i love spices not spicy spices i love flavorful i love curries i love all of that like that is my stuff

yeah

yeah it's fantastic indian food is amazing and what i love about indian food is it's one of the only cuisines that i think is equally delicious vegetarian i've been to

i've been to plenty vegetarian Indian places.

If you go to a vegetarian Chinese place, Drek.

This is no good.

You go to a vegetarian Indian place, they have it down.

There's just like, they know what they're doing.

These dishes still taste delicious.

A nice curry chickpea josh.

Ooh.

Ooh.

Yeah.

Just thinking about it.

San Paneer.

Come on.

I'm in.

Well, did you know that there's a woman who critiques men after sex to train them for their next lover?

This age group is best in bed.

And OnlyFans model got candid about her sex life and how she's working to improve others.

Arabella Mia, 27, who shared that, or as I like to call her, my guru, who shares that she sleeps with men of all different ages, isn't afraid to speak her mind when it comes to what she wants out of a romp in the sheets.

She said she's very direct and she said, unfortunately, women are known to fake their orgasms in bed because men can't seem to get the job done.

A lot of women won't tell a man what they want, but I wish they would.

So what does she tell them?

She says, again, the New York Post, failing me.

We need an intern.

The 27-year-old.

We need a summary.

I wonder, Josh, quickly, if you wrote to ChatGPT,

we should do this.

We get the articles.

We are at ChatGPT.

Summarize it for me.

Oh, I bet you they could do that.

That would be good.

Okay, continue.

Well, she said, I've met so many lovers who think sex is all about penetration and they don't bother warming you up first.

That's terrible.

And it turns out youngsters are focused on performance and want to please their partners.

I don't know who these men are, but if Mia thinks so, I'll believe her.

I don't know who wrote that.

When you go a little bit younger, they try really hard to make sure I'm having a good time.

So I definitely prefer that.

Shout out Gen Z.

Shout out Gen Z, I guess.

Look,

I don't understand this.

Like,

you're going into a situation not looking to please your partner.

How selfish are you?

I'm not a selfish lover, Josh.

I'm a selfless lover, okay?

I see that.

I'm a big-time lover.

If you're not enjoying yourself, I haven't done my part.

Totally.

For me, it is such a point of pride that I've facilitated you in your quest for satisfaction.

Agreed.

100%.

Yes.

We're such good people.

We

are.

I'm going for the Oscar everywhere.

Yeah.

On screen, under the sheets.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Olivia's turning totally red right now.

Sorry, Olivia.

Keep it brief.

Brevity is key.

I can't stress that enough.

Let's hear from

Anonymous.

Hey, Josh, I'm Ben, hoping to get some advice and maybe your guys's opinion on some things.

So long story short, my husband and I are divorcing.

We've been together for 11 years and married for three and a half.

And so obviously you can imagine what our social medias look like with a lot of photos of each other.

Thoughts on deleting the photos?

Do you do it all at once as if the person never existed?

Do you gradually do it?

Do you leave them?

I personally feel like it's pretty dramatic to just like wipe it clean all at one time.

But that's the route he took, which is fine to each their own.

I just am now like, okay, what do I do?

Like people are talking.

Do I just get rid of it?

Do I play it cool?

Do I slowly start deleting them?

Am I thinking way too much into this?

So what advice do you guys have?

What are your thoughts on it?

Thank you.

You're thinking too much into it because if he deleted all the pictures, you delete all the pictures.

Somebody did something already.

If nobody did anything, I would have said, look, 11 years with somebody.

I don't know how badly it ended, but these are still memories.

It's still nice.

You'll post more pictures.

I don't think you need to mass delete.

But if he mass deleted, you got to mass delete like you were he beat you to it sorry he chose for you you got to mass delete otherwise it looks like you're still holding on to something when he's mass deleted it's just not a good look yeah i guess in a perfect world you wouldn't want to look back at a part of your life and want to erase it right it just totally it happened and yeah it was and you learned and you progressed and all the things but i would imagine for dating purposes if you don't you know if you haven't repopulated with like a couple dozen photos since then, people are going to look at your page and be like, oh, you seem married.

Yeah.

Totally.

Totally.

My opinion changes if he didn't all delete all at once, Josh, but it's she's got to delete, no?

I would, you know, in my, I would say.

Because he deleted.

Yes, if he deleted, delete.

But if not, I think you kind of want to like, I think you just kind of do what's right by the other person if you care about them.

If you think they would be hurt and annoyed, maybe you do it slower.

but if you think they wouldn't care or you're annoyed with the way they treated you then who cares you gotta like cut it off you gotta stop caring what they think 100 which that guy clearly stopped caring what you thought pretty quickly so i'd get i'd get rid of him pretty quick let's hear from emily

Hey good guys, Major Moron and Toaster.

I need you guys to tell me if I'm nuts or if my brother is nuts.

So my brother's getting married in three weeks.

I'm a bridesmaid.

My husband is a groomsman, and my one-year-old son is the ring bearer.

We have to adhere to the following schedule, no leeway.

I must report at 10 a.m.

regardless of when my hair and makeup is.

My husband must report at 2 p.m.

and then my son must report at 2 p.m.

The ceremony does not start until 5.30 and it goes the wedding ends at 9.30.

So my one-year-old son is supposed to be at the venue without a nap or any place to really get out his energy from 2 in the afternoon till 9.30 at night.

Am I nuts for thinking that he should just have to get there right before the ceremony?

Or are they nuts?

Let me know.

Okay, we're missing some information i think based on what you told us a thousand percent he's nuts bridezilla groomzilla nut job okay

but now that i i was originally going to say that perhaps he wants your beautiful son the ring bear to be in some photos so maybe

giving like a quick call time like hey could he show up at 1 30 but then he can go back to his room take a three hour nap and then come back at 5 30 not giving any indication like telling you to show up at 10 a.m regardless of when your makeup is, that's nuts and that's not normal.

Women are given a schedule.

If your makeup's at 11.15, you show up at 11.10.

Like you don't need to sit there and watch your mother-in-law have her makeup done because women get their makeup done together.

Olivia,

it's like, okay, you know how like girls will go to the bathroom together?

Like when you go out somewhere, there's like a sense of camaraderie and community, I think, that she probably wants to like have her people there all day, you know?

Like that's, I think, even though it is like mad inconvenient, but like, I, I think that's part of it.

It's like you have your village with you the whole day while everybody's getting ready and you just kind of take it slower.

But yeah, it is inconvenient.

But your village includes, maybe they're super close.

I, I don't know.

Like I, your village includes your sister-in-law.

Like, can't it just be like your mom and a couple of friends?

And like, does she get, does she get excused because she has a toddler?

Like,

I get what you're saying.

I hear you, but it just seems, it seems nuts to me.

There could be some wiggle room there, I suppose.

The only thing that circumvents or trumps someone's wedding day is a child.

And 100%, you should be there.

Your husband should be there at the time allotted for this very special day for these two wonderful people.

Whatever is best for your child is, period, the end.

So they shouldn't be required to be there more than five minutes before.

You want to get them in a couple photos, bring them around for 20 minutes.

But like, you you can't mess with a kid's nap time, especially at that age.

Shy's two and a half, he'll be three before you know it.

Like, we can push, he can miss a nap, he won't be a total monster, he'll be monster adjacent.

You miss a one-year-old's nap, it's game over.

They are miserable, so you have to do what's right for that kid, and everyone should understand that.

Period.

Amen.

Well said, well put.

What are you nuts?

Totally nuts.

So next one from Haley.

Hey, Josh and Ben.

I'm going to make this quick.

This question is for Ben.

So last night, my husband and I made the really difficult decision to put our dog of 12 years down.

She's been my best friend through everything.

And so, you know, it was really difficult.

But the next few days following have been extremely difficult.

Her absence is like the loudest thing I've ever experienced.

And I just don't know how to cope.

My husband doesn't really know either.

So my question to you is, how long did you wait before getting Romeo after you lost Theo?

What's the appropriate amount of time?

And what did that grieving process look like for you?

Okay, thank you so much.

First of all, I'm so sorry.

Like, it's an awful feeling.

Awful.

it, get a dog now.

Like, the appropriate amount of time is immediate.

We waited probably two or three months and people will say, like, oh, you must not, like, truly know grief if you grieved this way about a dog.

Like, don't let anybody say that to you.

A piece of your life, a piece of your routine, a piece of your house, a piece of your happiness is just missing.

It's, it's an awful feeling.

It's awful.

So

I would suggest getting a new dog immediately because your heart will heal.

You'll never forget your past dog, but the absence will go away because you have love to give that there's nowhere to put it.

Also, I don't know if you have kids, but that would probably help too.

I have to assume that that would be a good place to put it.

Like Claudia and I always say, like, might sound dramatic to some, but like Theo died so that we could have, like, focus on having a baby.

Like, we treated him like our baby.

We needed a real baby.

And so,

I don't know.

It's really hard.

Get yourself a new dog.

Get a new dog.

Go for it.

Get a new dog.

Get a new dog.

Quick.

Get a new dog quick.

That's what you got to do.

Damn it.

You made me emotional.

Listen, and then when this dog starts, you know, getting a weird limp or a lens over the eye, get the next new dog.

Let's circumvent this.

And we'll do that.

Push off bereavement until you're in dementia.

That's it, Josh.

That's the real way to do it.

Yeah.

With Theo, we woke up.

He had cancer.

He had a month to live.

He was seven.

He died.

This dog, 12, I don't know if it was, you didn't mention it was traumatic.

It sounds like it was a slower roll.

Once you start to see your dog lose a step, you're supposed to get another dog.

Apparently, a puppy adds years to the elder dog's life, and then it's significantly less hard when the elder dog dies.

So you really are supposed to add another dog.

When you feel like your dog's going to die, you fucked up.

No, I'm just kidding.

You just know for the next time.

And how long speed dial you see your dog eat a Hershey's kiss?

Call the puppy mill.

You know what I mean?

That dog eats a grape, 1-800 puppies.

You know,

yeah, take the dog to the vet.

Hopefully, that works out.

But you know, you got a dachshund on the way.

I don't know.

Oh, these vets.

What a scam.

What a scam, these vets.

Unbelievable.

Vets are such, they they charge too much, huh?

It's just a scam.

It's just a complete scam.

Like, you walk in there, they then recommend all these things.

They upcharge you.

You have insurance.

It doesn't cover anything.

The whole thing's a scam.

Whole thing's a scam.

Totally.

Totes Magote.

Do you have a...

What are you nuts?

I do, Josh.

Our what are you nuts moment is people, places, and things, gripes with humanity.

You're walking around the streets of New York City or wherever the hell you are.

And you're thinking, what are you nuts?

What the hell is wrong with you people?

And yes, I have mine, Josh.

Last night, or let's start with yesterday, okay?

Yesterday, I'm walking.

I look as innocent as I do now.

I'm wearing shorts.

I have a purple smoothie.

I just picked up a purple smoothie.

I'm crossing the street.

All of a sudden, this guy, it doesn't matter that he's fat, but he's fat, turns around and he says, back the fuck off.

And he goes to throw a punch at me and I jumped backwards and I was like, oh man, okay, I'm good.

And I ran away, scurried back to my building.

Okay.

Later that night, I'm walking Romeo on the street.

All of a sudden, I see a guy.

I'm positive, Josh.

I'm positive he was holding, whether it was fake or not, he was holding a machete.

There was a knife in a long casing.

And I walked around and then I ran back.

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

The crazies are out again, Josh.

I don't know what to do.

I think I attract them sometimes, even though I don't make eye contact.

I make eye contact with nobody.

This guy, Josh, I'm holding my smoothie.

He didn't even see me.

Back the fuck up.

I don't.

What are you, nuts?

Eric Adams is bigger and busy at 11.

Yep, he is.

He is, but he's busy with the shouties.

Eric Adams is busy with the shouties in the night.

New show coming to Netflix.

You got one

from Ryan Murphy.

Shouting in the night.

Sarah.

Oh, my God.

Leo Michelle is a shouting.

The Gracie Mansion shouting.

Oh, my God.

My woody nuts is yesterday.

We were having dinner with my wife's aunt and uncle and her cousins, and we just love them.

They are the greatest people.

And we were at this really nice restaurant.

The food is so good.

And, and they basically, I don't know what happened, but we were there and Max and Shai, my two little kiddos, were there.

They brought everyone's food out except my kids' food.

Woody nuts.

Nuts.

I know things happen.

The worst thing you can do is bring out everyone but the the kids food because all of a sudden everyone feels horror you feel like you're eating dinner with the cast of oliver

you feel like you're in matilda

and these poor kids have no and then they immediately level up with their level of hunger when they see everyone else has food and no one wants to eat obviously things happen but if the kids meals are messed up somehow or need to be redone or like they're taking an extra couple minutes don't bring anyone else's food.

What are you nuts?

Yeah, hold the food, bring the kids' food first.

Always, kids' food first, always agreed.

Oh, it always, folks.

Oh, man, that was a fun one, Josh.

This episode, five stars.

Otherwise, what are you nuts?
