Josh Was in a Police Chase?!

The following podcast is a Dear Media production.

the good guys.

Whoa.

Mazzlemorons, welcome back to the Good Guys podcast.

I'm sitting here with my co-host, Ben Soffer, and me, Josh Peck.

I'm missing my antidepressant.

Anyway, let's move on.

I want to know, okay, so you're missing your antidepressant and you were just in some serious traffic.

She's missing me.

And you were just in some serious traffic.

Does that create road rage?

Yeah.

Well, no.

How angry were you waiting?

Josh texts me.

He's like, I'm going to be 10 minutes late.

And me, I'd say, no problem.

I don't care.

You show up when you show up.

You're a celebrity.

You show up when you show up.

But Josh sent me a video that I actually haven't watched yet where he said that somebody was arrested on the freeway.

So perhaps we listened to it together.

Let's see.

Play the first one and then the second one because I'm such like, I felt like

the first one was hilarious.

You were just like, bro, bro, bro.

Take a shot every time Josh says bro in this clip.

Ready?

I feel the need to give proof when I'm late.

Listen.

Dude,

just a few years.

This is what I'm dealing with right now.

I'm very sorry.

It's taking an extra minute.

I'm going to be about five minutes late.

Ah, fuck.

I'm so sorry.

Bro.

Ugh.

What is happening?

Someone better have committed a massive crime.

Why is the Popo here?

Why the ghetto burned up in the sky?

And

you only said bro once, so take one shot.

That's a video.

Oh, I thought you said it more.

That's That's me taking a video of the helicopter, the police helicopter, circling the freeway and me in dead stop traffic.

And then this one I haven't listened to yet.

Dude, I'm sorry I'm a minute or two late.

I know there's no excuse.

It's not like they shut down the freeway.

They shut down the fucking

freeway.

Oh, my God.

Look, I want to get my guy up.

I cut it off because I was like, my God.

I didn't know if it was acceptable the way I was like, look, there's the guy.

And he probably,

I literally started like editing in my head.

I'm like, he's probably a nice guy, but yeah.

There's absolutely nothing worse.

Last night we went to the U.S.

Open, Josh, which we have to talk about.

Yeah, yeah.

And we're leaving the U.S.

Open.

It said, we left early.

Okay.

We left.

In the middle of the third set of the Djokovic match out of five sets.

We wanted to beat the traffic, get home to Ruby.

It's a 24 minutes.

Okay.

24 minutes.

That's beautiful.

Hot.

That's beautiful.

We get to the freeway.

We're 12 minutes away on the FDR.

All of a sudden, 12 minutes jumps up to 30.

Accident.

What are you nuts?

Can people stop getting into accidents?

I have places to go.

You know how inconvenient it is that you probably died?

Can you please?

Come on.

Come on.

As my dad would say, have a little Rachmanis.

Rachmanis?

Rachmanis.

What's the etymology of Rachmanis?

Because

growing up, Rachmanis to me was like, oh, Rachmanis.

Like, it was like a negative, not like have a little grain.

It's like have, at least the way that I've always known it to be, is like, have some Rachmanis for this poor fella who

has one leg.

Have some Rachmanis, you know?

for our one-legged friend.

Or have some Rachmanis for me who's inconvenienced by the death of a drunk driver.

Have some roughmanas.

You have to understand the look on my wife's face, her growing up Irish Catholic in the great capital of California, Sacramento, realizing that there's a Jewish language called Yiddish.

Like

when I told her, I might as well have said, and here's the horns, like,

like, oi ve.

You just like poke your belly button and

they pop up, shoot

the jewish pillsbury doughboy you poke up at the stomach and he just goes oi

um

not so

yiddish is the best like if you don't know yiddish this is not like we're not trying to gatekeep it at all go learn it and use it it's fantastic and i feel like not i feel like some yiddish words have made its way into the American lexicon and and you don't even realize when you say oi oyve is this is this is the pinnacle of Yiddish.

Oive.

Let's talk about them.

And we have some.

I don't mean to, you know, Gentile Splain,

but I know Olivia, she is not part of the tribe.

I assume our wonderful engineer here.

Perfect, perfect, perfect.

Okay.

So at the end, we'll be doing a short conversion ceremony.

It's no big deal.

Yes.

I'm ready.

It's no big deal.

But okay.

Yeah.

Let's think of Yiddish words that have made their way into the regular lexicon of the English language.

Aive,

for sure.

Honestly, Josh, I'm going to ask ChatGPT.

No, no, no.

They're going to spit.

They're going to spit it out.

Way the fuck the game up.

Let's go.

Don't yes.

Don't, don't, don't.

Let's guess.

Fine, fine.

Well, wait, well, wait, well, wait, wait, wait, wait.

This seat is chat GPT.

They're ruining us, Steve.

They're ruining us.

It's ruining.

Instead of using my brain, I'm like, oh, I have one second of, I can't think, ChatGPT.

Oh my God.

We have to delete this app.

It's making, I can't think anymore.

I can't think.

Okay.

Oive.

For sure.

That's what comes to mind.

I have, for whatever reason, the second one that comes to mind, it's not in the lexicon.

Okay.

Gay kakanachinyan.

Means

means means go shit in the ocean.

That's what that means.

So somebody comes up to you, they say, yay, fuck you, guy.

You say, gay kakanachanyan, you go shit in the ocean, motherfucker.

That's not in the lexicon, but that one popped up.

Give it up.

We have one?

Yeah.

Okay.

I would say booby.

Yeah, booby's good.

Bubby.

Bubby.

Bubby.

Bubbala.

Bubbala.

Wait, wait, there's other ones.

There's a million.

I'm having the big.

Schmuck?

Shmuck.

Schmuck, yes, which in Yiddish means penis.

And we just really use it colloquially as, you know, he's a schmuck.

He's a...

dick.

A loser.

A loser.

Yeah, a loser.

Putts.

A loser.

A putt.

Putts.

Josh, you're good at this.

Your brain is firing.

You take Alphabrand before this?

What'd you take?

You took something.

Okay.

Yeah.

That's good.

That's good.

Wait, wait, there's other ones, though, like

Gesuntite.

No, that's German.

There's probably something close to Gesuntite, though, in Yiddish.

Maybe it's Gesunte or

Schwitz.

schwitz a schwitz for sure

schwitz going to the schwitz i i love this because you know there's some like yid on the on the van wick expressway screaming at the radio right now being like

you guys are missing it

kibbitz no

Just to fill in the blanks.

Okay.

Genta is a good one.

Okay, just to fill in the blanks.

Okay, yeah, yeah.

I don't even type anymore.

Mazzotov.

Well, that's Hebrew, though.

Oh, sorry.

Yiddish expressions that have made its way into American culture.

Yarmaka.

A surprising number of Yiddish words and expressions have become a part of everyday English language.

No good, Jew.

No.

Schlep.

Schlep, Josh.

Schlep.

Schlep.

Great.

Okay.

Shmooze.

To chat.

Okay.

Schmooze.

Schlach.

I didn't know.

Cheap.

Low quality.

Schlach.

Schlach.

It feels personal.

I don't know.

Schmaltz is a great one.

Chicken fat.

Schmaltz.

Some people cook with schmaltz.

But then also people have used it.

It's like got schmaltz.

Like it's fat, but it's not in the literal sense.

It's like, oh, it's overdone.

It's like, ugh, schmaltzy.

Oh, interesting.

I haven't used that.

Shmeer, Josh.

Shmeer, we forgot about.

Schmir.

A little bagels and schmeer.

Okay, a little bagels and schmear.

And then personality, behavior.

There's a million of them.

Mensch.

Mensch.

You're a mensch.

Our producer over there, he's a mensch.

Total.

Lovely.

I can.

Olivia, I think you'd be a mench.

I think maybe Olivia would be a menscha.

I don't know if mensch is male or there might be a female word for mensch.

I'm not positive.

Kvetch.

Kvech.

Kvetch.

All we do is kvech.

By the way, that would be a good little title for a segment.

Kvetching.

Fetching in something, like where we complain about things.

Yeah.

Kvel.

I'm Kvelling.

I'm Kveling.

I'm Kveling.

Yeah.

By the way.

Overwhelmed with pride and joy.

And I'm.

Did we say Yenta?

Yenta.

Kwant.

Yenting.

We're going to Yenta with Kathy Griffin.

She's a Yenta.

Oh, is she a Yenta?

White?

Cannot.

She's a Yenta.

Oive,

my favorite, which I honestly forgot about.

Do you know, Olivia, Olivia, there's a big version of Oive.

It's called Eigevalt.

That's big oyve.

That's big oyve.

There's oive and there's oigewalt, which just means big oyve.

What are you, meshugana?

Meshugana.

It's a good one.

We could go forever.

Wait, there's only two more actually in here.

Chutzpa.

You have so much chutzpah.

Means you got nerve.

And last, Olivia is right, mazeltub on your promotion.

No,

I didn't know that that wasn't he.

Neither did I.

By the way, we're trusting chat.

Maybe they're wrong.

I don't know.

I thought it was Heber too.

If you're going to trust anyone, right?

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

It's Sax Underwear.

Folks, we've spoken about Sax before, okay?

Because Sax is solving a big problem in America.

And if you're a man, you know it.

Let's talk about the acronym B-S-T-L ball stuck to the leg.

I'm sorry, mom, turn this off, but it happens.

Your nuts get caught on your legs.

You're sweating.

You want to keep the boys secure.

You don't want to feel that sweat anymore.

That's where Saks comes in, because Saks isn't your normal pair of underwear like competitors, okay?

A Calvin Klein, a Costco, a Haynes, okay?

Because they don't care about your nuts the way that Saks does, okay?

Old underwear is out.

Saks is in because Saks is the original pouch underwear, changing the game since 2006, with its patented ballpark pouch technology.

It's the most comfortable underwear for men, period.

Folks, they have styles for every situation from lounging to high-intensity sport.

You got to keep those bad boys up during sport.

You don't want them dangling.

You don't want all of a sudden you get a baseball to the nut.

No, that would happen in your Calvins.

That wouldn't happen in your sacks because your sacks are keeping your sack up.

Your Calvins are letting your sack droop.

Okay, it's very simple.

It's incredibly simple and comfortable.

Sacks underwear is unbelievably comfortable and gifting.

My goodness gracious, this is the perfect gift, folks.

If you're a lady and you'd like to give this to your husband, he'll be.

thrilled.

If you're a friend and want to gift it to your male friend, it's an amazing gift.

You should absolutely send sacks to somebody you love who wants to keep their sack cool and comfortable while in underwear.

Think about it.

You change your oil, upgrade your phone, rotate your sneakers, but you're still rocking those stretched out boxers from college.

Woody and nuts.

Your underwear is the one thing you wear every single day.

Sacks underwear gives you breathable fabric, no ride-up legs, and a pouch that keeps everything in its lane.

Upgrade your drawers, upgrade your day.

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

Folks, you know, we love Element here at the Good Guys Podcast because this is a zero sugar electrolyte drink mix and sparkling electrolyte water born from the growing body of research revealing that optimal health outcomes occur at sodium levels two to three times times government recommendations.

I've had enough, government.

Okay.

I have had enough.

I need more salt.

Why are you telling me I shouldn't have more salt?

Salt makes me feel better.

Salt is not the enemy.

It is not.

Element is telling us that salt is not the enemy.

And all you have to do is try it to believe it.

Okay.

When you are thirsty and you drink a ton of water, you don't feel hydrated because your electrolytes are low, your salt is low, and each stick pack delivers a meaningful dose of electrolytes free of sugar, artificial colors, or other dodgy ingredients.

You don't realize these competitors look at the back.

Why are you trying to get hydrated with so much sugar?

That doesn't make any sense.

You don't need that.

You don't need any of the sugar or dodgy ingredients to get hydrated.

An element is formulated for anyone on a mission to restore health through hydration.

It's perfectly suited for athletes like us, okay?

Folks who are fasting, sometimes also us, or those following K to season, that's us.

Low carb, whole food, paleo diets, that's all of us.

We're all of these things.

We're all of these things.

A little schizophrenic, but we're all of these things.

And folks, Rob Wolf, their founder, former research biochemist, two-time New York Times best-selling author, and he has now sat on the Navy SEAL Resilience Committee for over a decade.

I mean, you talk about accolades.

Again, they got U.S.

Olympians like us, professional athletes, special forces, health experts, business leaders, everyday folks just like us.

The morons, people, the morons need Elements.

So right now, Elements is offering a free sample pack with any purchase.

That's eight single serving packets free with any Element order.

This is a great way to try all eight flavors or share Element with a friend.

Have you ever looked in the mirror and not recognized yourself?

Me, f ⁇ ing too.

Hi, I'm Caroline Baudino from Instagram Shop with Caroline and host of Coming In Hot.

This tough New Yorker, who swore she would never depend on a man, lives to wear all her jewels and look fabulous, let everyone else's expectations of being a mom, a wife, a daughter to Cuban parents take priority.

I finally put my oxygen mask on first and took the biggest bet of my life.

Join me every Monday on Comin' In Hot to deep dive on finding your own happy tools and living your best life too.

Yes, we can.

It's so cool having Olivia here in our temporary set, like with the way this is set up with like the fake plants and everything, I feel like we're like on our college radio show.

Yes, totally.

This is so

good.

I also kind of feel like we're like on the vile files, except Nick isn't here.

Yeah,

I'll do my best impression of Nick to be like slightly detached, but very insightful.

Hey, let me hear.

No, I can't.

That's it.

I've just described it.

He's too handsome.

He's so handsome and huge.

Why are all these guys so big?

I used to think I was tall, and then I started meeting people that went on the bachelor.

These guys are all 6'5.

Who knew?

Who knew like Joey Camasta was 6'2 ⁇ ?

Oh, my God.

Joey Camasta is a unit.

A unit.

Utter unit.

Yeah, no,

he should play football.

Yeah.

He's a big boy, and he will take offense to that.

He's Svelte.

You can be big and Svelte, and you're big and Svelte, Joey.

Big and Svelte.

It's an absolute compliment.

Absolute compliment.

But I will say, and I've been getting some feedback, and I don't want this to make it to the dear media ears, but we do have our Olivia here.

I'm hearing that these video cameras in our temporary studio, better.

It's better.

Like, it's more clear.

Tice.

It's more clear.

I know.

It's because these are the FX3, right?

Fancy cinema cameras.

You look insane right now.

You look so unbelievably clear.

I feel insane.

I feel it.

Oh, you do, right?

it you look nuts i'm looking and and i'm sure that everybody noticed yes i'm no longer in my temporary hampton studio that i needed to set up by hand okay you guys don't understand you're complaining i was woodworking every day i was nailing i was creating i gave you the best i could now we're back we're home it's beautiful what is this taupe this is light pink what is a cross between taupe and a light pink what is this called

it's a beautiful mingo it's giving bubblegum dreams.

Bubblegum.

It looks like Katy Perry's powder room.

Gorgeous.

That's not where I thought you were going.

And I thought we were going to have to cut it.

I was like, whoa, Katy Perry's.

He's like, get your head out of the gutter.

I don't know.

Am I allowed to say that I think Katy Perry is a babe?

Sure.

I thought you were going to say that you'd love to see Katy Perry's powder room.

That's way more than way more than calling her attractive.

That would be a fun code word for going down on someone.

Powder room?

Trying to see that powder room, baby.

I want to see your pen.

I want to see.

I don't go down on people.

It's nuts.

I'm all men.

Yeah, that's you.

I'm not gang like that, dog.

No, I'll get it.

But you know, like amongst like certain, like, I don't know how to phrase this, but in tougher neighborhoods, it's considered less than masculine to go down on someone.

And I'm like, you're nuts.

You're nuts.

You're nuts.

And you're also like, kind of a jerk.

Like, she deserves fun too.

Like, beyond

your nut job.

Like, if you want that, go, I don't know, hire a hooker.

We're going to have to cut all this out.

No, we're not.

Okay, cool.

Leave it in.

Yeah, beyond.

By the way, it's the only time where I know I've actually done my job.

Totally.

Totally.

In the other sense, like, I'm just kind of taking your word for it, you know?

Yeah, no, for sure.

There's no, I mean, I guess you could act in this.

We're talking about cunnelingus, right?

Oh, yeah.

Is that Yiddish?

Cunnalingus?

It could be.

I wonder what the...

I have to ask.

What is the Yiddish term for Kunnalingus?

I mean, done with ChatGPT.

The word fellatio is clearly Italian because it ends in a vowel.

Yiddish doesn't really have a native widely used term for cunnelingus,

but yiddish sexual slang exists let's see

oh it's yeah stupping schmuckpats okay that's nothing we didn't know nothing we didn't know

oh my god josh tell me labor day weekend was it wonderful no it's awful i know you were gonna say that tell me why it was so stressful it's so funny the bigger the national holiday the worse time you have i love it yeah bro because the kid because the kids don't have school like it's a lot.

It's a lot.

They don't have camp.

They don't have school.

They got nothing.

It's a lot.

I'm also 38 and I'm in on the joke, which is like, I can tell through Instagram, you're not having the fun that you're saying you're having.

I just

know it.

I know it, know it, know it.

Well, we know you're wishing it, certainly.

You're like, you're not having fun.

Are you not like, do you grill at all?

We've never spoken.

Do you have an outdoor grill?

I do.

I love to grill.

You do grill.

That sounds like, did you do that?

That would have been a lovely activity.

No, you didn't.

How often do you grill?

I get, I go in spurts.

So like, I'll be all, like, I'll do it once or twice a week for like a month or two, and then it'll sit dormant for six months.

Yeah, it's kind of, it's so interesting.

So like in the city, you have two options for buildings, right?

You'll have a non-amenity building and an amenity building.

Sure.

And you're paying for these amenities, right?

Some of them have gyms, some of them have pools, some of them have rooftop decks for tanning.

And you're paying up for these things.

And they sound amazing.

But if you live in an amenity building, I always think you're going to pay for the amenities.

Nine out of 10 people won't ever use the amenities.

Is it the same thing with a house where you have all these gadgets and gizmos of plenty?

Who's its and what's its galore?

Like a jacuzzi?

Like a grill?

Do you ever use them?

I mean, I don't have those kinds of things just because I'm more like, basically when you live by the beach, the ultimate gizmo is the beach.

But do people use them, I'm saying?

the people who have these huge, beautiful pools, these beautiful jacuzzis, these saunas, like all they trick out their houses.

Do they use them ever?

I think some people do.

I certainly would, but it's a shunda because the moment something breaks, you gotta have a guy.

Gotta have a guy.

Must have a guy.

Must have a guy.

And you gotta.

By the way, I didn't get any credit for gadgets and gizmos of plenty.

I got who's it's and what's it's galore.

You want thingamabobs?

I got 20.

But who cares?

No big deal.

I want more.

Brother, this is a high T podcast.

It is.

So hot.

My God.

Speak little mermaid lyrics.

We do.

We do.

I was just playing that actually for Ruby.

I'm sure you know, but you obviously know about this.

This invention, Josh, this is, we actually, I think you spoke about it on the podcast already, but I have to call it out again.

The invention of the Tony.

This is fucking genius, okay?

I used to have these, I called them figurines.

My parents would buy me like a little like caricature of Belle from Beauty and the Beast.

And I had, I like collected them.

I loved them.

And now they make them where you put them on top of this box and they sing.

So you can have

Buzz Lightyear and you put him on and it tells stories from Toy Story.

So kids don't have to necessarily watch.

They can hear, they can listen.

Ruby at three months, he loves it.

He hears like it's, it's, he is a little Mozart guy that plays Mozart, a little mermaid that does little mermaid shout out tony love it shout out tony it's fabulous both my kids have it my son goes to sleep to the arthur podcast tony every night but that is so cute two years in i'm like dog we've been hearing the same story

Because I lay with him every night.

Oh my God, here it comes.

Here's another story from Arthur.

I'm like, I am going to end it all.

I'm going to throw myself off your punk bag, dude.

But he loves it and he won't accept another one.

It's like that, there's also a Fisher Price toy, the kick and play that Ruby's using right now.

And it's the same fucking song, that purple monkey.

Can you shut up, purple monkey?

Okay.

I've had enough.

Yeah, I've had enough of you.

Fucking monkey, stupid purple.

Bro,

I'm in a little bit of a crisis and I'm willing for everyone to weigh in here.

I have itchy scalp and I have children.

So I got nervous.

I might have lice.

I don't.

None of my kids have it.

But I bought a preventative conditioner and shampoo, which I've been using for like the last two weeks.

So I'm good.

I've been like looked at for lice.

I'm good.

I'm good.

But like, do I just have itchy scalp?

Or here's another thing I've been thinking because I've been going outside at night a bit and it's still super hot and August, September weather.

I think I'm getting lit up by mosquitoes on my scalp.

Is that possible?

Gosh, I'm so happy that you brought this up, okay?

First of all, I think that you just have a little bit of dandruff.

I don't.

You have a dry scalp.

Maybe Harmeshan coming down from my pocket.

I think they might be deeper.

You might not know.

Or maybe you got sunburned.

Is it possible that the top of your head got sunburned?

Maybe you were like walking in the heat and you don't realize that maybe it's a little bit red under there.

All I know, even if you don't have dandruff,

why

is head and shoulders not the only shampoo we use?

We have a dandruff preventative shampoo.

All these other shampoos don't do anything.

It's like, okay, your hair will be soft, but with head and shoulders, you'll never get dandruff and your hair is soft.

Or on the flip side, why isn't every single shampoo dandruff preventative?

I don't understand, right?

Is this not a question that you ask yourself?

I ask myself this every day.

I now use head and shoulders every day because I do sometimes.

I get an itchy scalp.

Okay.

Turmeric makes me itchy everywhere.

I get itchy everywhere.

I've been doing my turmeric supplement.

Maybe I'm.

Maybe it's.

Yes.

You're overdosing.

What units are you taking?

I'm doing, I do about 2,000 milligrams a day.

Too much.

Mashug?

I'm happy we spoke about this.

Yeah, the normal range is 500 to 2,000.

You don't need 2,000, dude.

You don't need it.

I got info.

You need it.

I'm just everywhere.

I know.

I'm killing.

Do you have it?

I'm retaining it.

You've activated black pepper.

You have activated black pepper with it?

Do I have activated black pepper?

Am I an asshole?

I was an asshole.

I took turmeric plain for like a year and a half.

It did nothing but give me heartburn.

The activated black pepper is a,

it's the whole thing.

It's the whole jam.

It's the whole jam.

So true.

I don't even know why.

Honestly, the fact that they sell turmeric without activated black pepper, these people need to be held responsible.

This is false advertising.

It's because it's for a curry, not a ben.

Yeah, you're just gonna give me hot.

You're just gonna give me hot pea.

Like, I don't need that.

I need an inflammation reducer.

But do places in which, like, Southeast Asia that uses a lot of turmeric, we're talking India, we're talking Indonesia.

Like, do these people just have no

inflammation?

No, they must not.

They must feel amazing all the time.

God,

I must feel amazing.

We should just start cooking with our supplements more.

Yeah, right.

A creatine saffron turmeric stew?

Tough said.

Sounds good to me.

I would, I love that.

God, do I love that?

Should we get into a story?

Yeah,

I would love to.

Let's chat.

Let's gab.

Yeah, let's gab.

Let's keep it really wild and free.

You think that's Yiddish, Gab?

Gab?

Where does that come from?

I don't know.

It sounds just like, I don't know.

It's got to be short for something.

Yeah.

Gaba Goo.

So true.

Well,

singles are dating until they're hating to make breakups easier.

Here's how to tell if this toxic trend is happening in your relationship.

The date them till you hate them theory isn't about stormy splits.

It's about slowly ghosting your way out of love.

The buzzy breakup strategy is racking up views on TikTok, though relationship pros say it could be downright toxic.

The trend traces back to creator Meg Neil, who went viral after spilling how she slipped out of a four-year relationship without crumbling.

I dated him until I hated him, she declared in a TikTok video.

Rather than nagging, fighting, or demanding change, she simply pulled the plug on her emotions.

You're going to let them disrespect you, Neil noted.

You're going to watch them disrespect you until you no longer want to associate with them anymore.

It's breakup by Slowburn.

Makes sense to me.

Yeah.

Like...

Waiting until you hate each other and then it's a natural split.

I have no issues with this.

Then, somebody's not like

devastated.

There's nothing sadder than when one person is ready to break it off, and the other person felt like they were blindsided, you know, which I never really understood.

Like, how are you that blindsided?

Like, unless like this person, I guess, really kept it under wraps, how much they hated you.

But I support this idea of giving it enough time until you're positive that there's no recovering, Right.

Yeah, I

think at this point, like,

I guess it's just how much time do you have to spare, right?

Like, are you willing to just like wait it out?

But I don't know.

I'm not a big fan of quiet quitting.

Like, I've worked with this, I worked with a producer for this thing that I wrote for like the last year.

And six months into it, I'm just like, are you still into this?

And he was like, yeah, bro.

And then for six more months, he just didn't do anything.

And I'm like, brother, like, and then finally, when I was like, I feel like we should part ways.

And he's like, definitely.

I'm like, dog, why didn't we do this six months ago, bro?

Like, why are you?

So I quickly affirming what I believed.

I completely agree with you.

When it comes to work, quiet, quitting, this is unacceptable.

Right.

Okay.

This is wasting time.

But in a relationship, like, you never know.

It could turn around.

I often feel like, at least like my single friends that are like serial daters, but just never,

whatever reason, they always find something wrong with the girl that they're dating.

I just don't think that they ever give it enough time.

So I think that if you have this mentality that you're going to give it your all until you potentially hate the person, you could end up liking them.

You never know.

But yeah, quiet quitting in the workplace, this is no bueno at all.

You're wasting money.

You're wasting time.

I don't know.

I think it's a little different.

I don't hear you.

I don't want to make a blanketed statement because I'd like to actually have one on the show just because I think we could learn a lot from But I've had friends before who've been in marriages who've been like,

you can go to couples therapy, it won't work.

Like they're just, they're like, it's, you're stuck with this person who's not going to change.

And either you like really bear down, get down with the vows, and just go,

okay, like,

hopefully like the stock market, this trends up.

But right now, we are in a bear market.

We're down 10,000 points.

Yeah.

What do you think?

I think that you can't ever be with somebody with the intention to change them.

At the same time, I do think that depending on when you meet, you will change naturally.

And I hope you evolve

in the way that

I hope that you evolve together.

When Claudia and I met, we were two completely different people.

I genuinely, I'm very thankful our relationship gets better every single year.

We fought more in the first year of our relationship than we do today.

Yeah.

It just, and I think that that's because little things that bothered me, I would bring up.

Little things that bothered her, she would bring up.

There was no swallowing.

And for a little, for a period of time, you start to swallow the little things that bother you.

And then all of a sudden, they don't bother you anymore because they're, you grew up.

Like that tick no longer bothers me.

Peace is more important to me than whatever that little thing was that was bothering me.

So again, I'm not trying to make a blanket statement, but I do think that if you're not growing with someone, yes, you could get down with your vows and just

be cool with it, but I can't imagine that.

Like that, that would really stress me out.

If my relationship was deteriorating over time and I was just stuck, that would suck.

Yeah, I mean, but I know,

I know from a lot of married friends who say who've gone through like

elongated rough periods like rougher than we think we

as people who have either been single and or were in you know just dating relationships when people will talk about like oh yeah like 2014 to 2020 was and i'm like well what and they're like wow yeah They're like, it was rough, but they're like, we had kids, we're married.

They're like, it got better.

It wasn't, oh, it wasn't 365 365 days a year of awful but like it was a net tough it was net negative for those four or five years of just like

put your head down raise these kids and wish it was

with with young kids is that what it is i would say so

yeah i think that that's also uh a very very valid excuse for having a tough time.

Like that makes sense to me, Where if you have children and all of a sudden your life is completely flipped upside down, your schedule is you're no longer living for each other.

You're living for someone.

Like I don't remember who posted this on Instagram, but it resonated.

I think it was Jesse Itzler, if you know who that is.

He posted on Instagram that like the most important thing that you can do for your children is love their mother.

And I thought that was really profound.

And it made me think like,

if you, if you can make sure, and the obviously the reverse should be equally as important, the best thing you can do for your kids is love your husband.

But if you can have that foundation always be really strong and solve problems together,

I would think that it would be easier to not just focus on how do we raise, like, how do we put our kid first?

Because we put ourselves first already and now we're collectively going to put the kid first.

Does that make sense?

Yeah, no.

Because I can see, because I can see the flip side obviously happening where like you're just trying to survive.

And so your relationship completely takes a back seat while you just figure it out right

yeah i think it depends i i would be interested i've said this to paige before and and i don't know you know if other people feel this way i i've said to her before i'm like you know i know you love me but i'm not sure you like me like

it's true this if are we doing the truth corner olivia's nodding her head is that true yeah i'm here you get it right yeah yeah.

Definitely.

Like, there are moments, I think, where

if you're having like challenges with a partner too, it's like, I don't like you right now,

but I still like love you.

I feel like that probably comes more to when you're like a parent and you have children.

And like, I don't know, I just like, I know too, I have that feeling with like my family members where like, I don't like you right now, but I'll always love you.

Cause like you become family when you make that commitment to each other obviously but um

yeah i like just speaking too of like this whole idea of like dating until you hate someone like i had an ex years ago that we were like best friends and then dated for about the same amount of time that we were best friends and um

like i just remember there was like a point about a year and a half in and i was like I don't think this is going to work out long term, but like I really care about this person.

Like I loved him, but I did not like him anymore i was like i love you as a human being and like i want you to be better and i want like both of us to grow but it was just funny because we dated for another like year and a half after that ended up breaking up very amicably um but like we both just like flourished right after we broke up it was like oh okay maybe if like you take out that level of to like ben's point too of like or your point actually like how much time do you have to kind of like give that space?

But, like, I don't know, it made it like easier, I think, for both of us to like let it go, give it rest, because we tried.

Um, and then, like, we both just like took off after that.

So, that kind of rounds back to the first point.

But, um, yeah, I think you can definitely love someone and not always like them.

Oh, yeah.

I can,

I'll look at Paige and be like, Am I giving you the ick right now?

Like,

and by the way, that, and that gives her the more ick.

If you were giving her the ick before you asked if you're giving her the ick, now she's icked to the fucking max.

To the gills.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Like I like

if Claudia thinks you're dope, no way.

By the way, you don't fucking worry, bro.

I think that certainly there are plenty of times and she will tell me when I'm bothering her or when something's wrong.

I just accept it though.

I think that's one of those things where like early on, I would have been pissed and now it's just like, it's just like, okay.

And then it, and then it goes away.

Like, if I think about it, it doesn't go away.

That's one of the perfect examples.

Like, I'll tell you, last night we're at a tennis, we're at the US Open.

And I know that she's joking, but like I turned to her, I had a nice honey deuce.

And she's like, Ben, your breath fucking stinks.

And it's like, what do you want?

Hi.

And it's like, what do you want me to do about it?

Okay.

What do you want me to do about it?

But instead of getting annoyed, I just, I would just like laughed it off.

And then it was funny.

But like, there was a period of time where like I would have been like self-conscious, like, oh my God, my breath fucking stinks.

Like, what do you want me to do?

I don't have a toothbrush.

I'm literally sitting at the U.S.

Open.

Like, what am I supposed to do now?

Why did you tell me this?

Why would I'm now in my head?

After a honey deuce, though, I feel like it would alcohol, at least for me, alcohol.

I think it's, well, by the way, it's not just for me.

I was going to act like I'm the only person who gets dehydrated from alcohol.

I think that it dehydrates you and then your mouth is dry.

Also, Claudia has, she literally could work for the police.

Her owner.

She has the nose.

She has the nose of a fucking police dog.

Yeah, she doesn't have to do it.

Yeah, she could be like sniffing, like sniffing a bag and know that there's cocaine in it.

And she has, by the way, so could I.

She could be like sniffing a whole bag of Coke and knowing it's blow.

I don't like Coke.

I just like the way it smells.

Yeah, she's our little Angela Bassett hound.

Yeah, she has a

good nose, a strong, trained nose.

She could work for a perfume, perfumery.

Yes, it's identifying notes.

Fantastic.

But yeah.

But yeah.

Oh, I wanted to, I forgot about the U.S.

Open.

Okay, so we went to the U.S.

Open and Josh, we randomly, Spritz Society sponsored, did you, have you seen my Instagram stories?

Okay, we sponsored these two unranked kids, doubles, Robert Cash and J.J.

Tracy, completely unranked, made them hats, thought, okay, they're going to lose in the first round.

It doesn't matter.

They made it to the quarters.

They beaten three ranked teens in a a row.

So we went and we watched them last night before Jokovich.

23-year-old studs from OSU are just ripping it, ripping it.

And it's so amazing.

They win press conference, Spritz hat.

I'm like, fuck you.

I'm like, fuck you.

It's, it's unbelievable.

So yeah, I, I had to share that at the U.S.

Open.

We literally, we're going, we're watching them.

People are coming up to us and they're like, we're here to see the Spritz guys.

I'm like, are you kidding me?

Like, this is sick.

Now, what does that mean when you're you're sponsoring, like, does that mean you just gave them a check to wear the hat?

For this, no, like, we didn't even.

Like,

they didn't have any sponsors.

Like, it's for this, like, I think eventually, especially because they're now, like, pretty good, we will

compensate them financially.

But it's been,

we're going to make you hats and we're going to talk about you.

Like, they spoke about them on the toast.

They're getting Instagram followers.

I'm tagging them.

They have 2,000 followers each.

We have millions.

Like, I think it's just awareness.

They didn't, they didn't have, they had no sponsors.

They were completely unknown.

And we just got lucky.

It's like a complete flyer.

It's like they could have easily just lost in the first round.

So you can't, you can't pay somebody like that because they're completely unknown.

But now imagine they win the U.S.

Open.

They could.

They're in the quarters.

What do you think of the fact that now on,

it does ruffle my feathers just a little bit that in things, I guess they do it in hockey too, but they definitely do it in basketball, how the jerseys have like the motorola patch or like totally they're sponsored by one massive sponsor it's weird i think it's weird too i think it's i i i like when

like uh jokovich does this okay and i guess the i guess uh robert cash and jj tracy are doing with the spritz hats too they're not wearing it during the match they wear it during the press conference jokovic you'll see he will finish i think his sponsor's automar and he'll go and put on a sick fucking watch right the second he finishes.

You watch, he reaches into his bag, he puts it on, and that's where he's contracted.

Like I like when people are sponsored by more than one thing.

He wears lacoste shorts, so you know it's that.

He wears, I'm sure, a different shoe brand.

But yeah, no, they're really lame sponsors.

Like the Knicks for, I think the Knicks is like, I think we're sponsored by like Abu Dhabi.

It's like the tourism board.

Like there are their brands.

Yeah, what's his name?

Fritz last night, Motorola.

Sorry, Motorola.

You don't sponsor us anyways such an ugly logo like i'm trying to think of others in the nba they're so weird weird motorola raiser so sick it was an amazing phone what it was an amazing phone yeah but it's funny too right because rafa nadal was famous for having like these ticks that he would always like pull his hair back and he would like do all these things while he was playing and he famously always pulled his wedgie out i think before before each point he would just like

do a quick tug of his shorts and like what if you were like his shorts sponsor being like rafa

maybe you don't pull a wedgie on every time it's telling people that you know uniquely gives you wedgies

yeah no good

no good at all yeah you know that was a meeting i think uniqlo was unique feterer

or is it nadal i think i think fetter

like when you're that good at tennis I think the same thing happened with OnCloud.

You literally, your Federer, he got a piece of cloud he started wearing on clouds and on clouds exploded mass there was like like it's it's just so when you're that level of influential these partnerships are everything and that's why they're so expensive the doll or federer wearing uniqlo made people think that uniqlo is for tennis like it's just it's i don't know i i'm it's genius when it's when it's that big of a person should we get to a quick speakpipe we should if you want to leave us a message get some advice go to speakpipe.com good guys.

Keep it brief.

Brevity is key.

Okay, let's hear from somebody good.

You already know the deal from Anonymous.

Good guys, I am getting married at the end of June in Texas.

So it is going to be super hot.

So instead of past dors d'oeuvres, we are thinking about doing a little ice cream stand at our cocktail hour.

It's an indoor, outdoor cocktail hour.

And it's a little guy with a stand and umbrella.

It's kind of cute and he does mini ice cream sandwiches and push-pops so we were thinking of doing that instead of past d'ors d'oeuvres because personally i think nobody wants a mid and pinata when it's 100 degrees outside but my question is is is that weird as a guest are you expecting or wanting past dors d'oeuvres are you not wanting a cocktail with ice cream or

What are your thoughts?

Y'all are the kings of food.

And I heard you talking about this coastal wedding.

So I wanted to know your opinion.

Thanks so much.

Love you, but what are you fucking nuts?

Okay, this is a horrible idea for a million reasons.

First of all, you're going to ruin everybody's appetite, giving them ice cream before they go to dinner.

What if people are lactose intolerant?

All of a sudden, they're shitting themselves the whole night.

You have dairy at the end, you don't have dairy at the beginning, and most importantly, it's a boiling hot day, and you're going to give people ice cream that's going to drip and fall on their tuxedo.

This is a terrible idea.

What if it's chocolate and falls on your white dress?

This is a horrible idea.

I've never heard of anybody complaining about an empanada at any degree.

Who cares?

All of a sudden you can't eat food because it's warmout.

I was ready to roast you when I thought you were going to do a gespacho station, which I'll never understand gazpacho.

But ice cream before, instead of past hors d'oeuvres, this is lunacy.

But first of all, there's no tilde on empiñada.

Totally.

I was thinking the same thing.

Empanada, you live next to Mexico.

What are you, nuts?

Empanada.

Not empiñata.

It's not like a piñata.

Yeah, there's no tilde.

Oh, Josh, imagine a big, an empanada the size of a piñata.

Oh, my God.

Smack it and beef pours out.

That'd be amazing.

Right?

Yeah.

It's like a big piñata empanada.

And we call it the empiñata.

You created something great.

You just didn't know what you made.

Yay.

Oh, my God.

Empanada, Mark Zuckerberg, and his dorm room at Harvard.

VCs are going to be calling on Empanata.

I'm telling you.

I'm telling you.

If Goya is a VC, I'm in.

I'm in.

I'm in it for the Empanata.

I mean, what about,

what if they still do paste red d'oeuvres?

But okay, here's maybe a compromise, Ben.

They do slushy drinks, inspired, slushy.

So like ice margaritas, daiquiri, piña coladas, like fun, slushy-inspired drinks is kind of the cooling mechanism.

This is a lovely idea.

Lovely.

I think it's wonderful.

You could also,

I don't know, do the cocktail hour inside.

Also, it's,

I just,

I don't like any of this.

I like your idea.

That's a wonderful idea.

I don't like her thinking the ice cream.

She really, you better not do it.

This is bad.

So true.

This is a bad idea.

Nuts.

One of the worst speak pipes I've ever heard.

Woody, nuts.

Total.

Thank God you called in.

Next one from

Fatty.

That's what they said.

Hey, good guys.

Something happened recently, and I just, I know you don't know me, and I don't really know you,

but I just felt like the two of you needed to know that this happened.

My sister recently had an engagement party, and as my mom and I left said engagement party, her mother-in-law turned to her and asked her, and I quote:

Does obesity run in your family?

Doodles!

Yikes!

Oh, yeah.

That's what's up.

And a fair question.

Yeah, I mean, you gotta know.

I mean, obesity doesn't really run in a family, it walks

in your family.

Did obesity scoot in your family?

Do new balance run in your family?

Velcro shoes.

Oh, my God.

It's a terrible question.

Yeah.

What are you going to do?

I mean, I have to assume she's fat, right?

That's why she asked her that.

She could be.

Right?

I don't think that you would ask a skinny woman, does obesity run in your family?

Sure.

So it's not, so it's not nice to go to a big fat fatty and say, hey, does big fat fatties run in your family?

Is your mom a big fat fatty?

Is your dad a big fat fatty?

Is everybody a big fat fatty?

That's not nice.

You can just assume, yes.

Yeah.

It does.

Yeah, exactly.

It absolutely does.

It typically does.

It typically does.

I tell my wife.

It's rare that there's an outlier.

Yeah.

From Jumpstreet, I was like, our kids are going to have flat feet and depression.

And you know what?

They're going to be sweethearts.

Yeah.

They're going to love their mother.

Yeah.

They are going to love their mother.

They might have a lisp.

They're going to love their mother.

Okay, flat feet and the lisp.

Oh, sorry.

I forgot life's not fair.

Yeah, it's fine.

They'll have a second toe bigger than the first.

For me, they'll have a big gap between the big toe and the second.

No problem.

Flat feet.

Ooh, Josh, I'm starting physical therapy today.

Matzo, I go all the time.

Yeah, I literally, it was actually, it was funny.

We were doing the Soto method with our friend Hillary, who runs it.

And she was having me do

like do some kind of a stretch and I guess she didn't realize how little mobility I had this way

and she literally looked at me and she's like you need to go into PT yesterday so we're going to work on whatever this is getting this back more and the uh external rotation on my hips god bless you

so i will keep you posted great

i'm currently in physical therapy for my tmj with my neck and tight shoulders shout out my physical therapist on god or as I call him on God

that sounds like a masseuse right no you just get massages no no neck and shoulders what do you do I go to the place where the LA Kings go for physical therapy wow yeah oh that's hot it's horrible it's horrible but yeah no it's fine like you do certain rows to it's basically strengthening your shoulders and your neck

they put a rubber one of those rubber bands around my head and I have to like use resistance to strengthen my neck and oh wow Okay, so this isn't, this is going to be hard stuff, what I'm about to do.

No one does, I'll tell you what, physical therapy has only ever been the only thing that fixes me.

No one does it because it's actual work and they'd rather go and throw their money away for a chiropractor and lay on a table like a big lazy bastard.

A big fat loser.

Go do the work.

No, I'm going to do the work.

I'm excited.

I feel great.

You got a what of your nuts?
