TLC: CrazySexyCool (1994)
[00:00]I do have a coffee.
[00:01]I am tired today, and you're going to find out
[00:03]why during my alone go on, okay?
[00:04]Oh, did you have to teach three classes?
[00:07]No, that's not it.
[00:09]It has to do with poor choices I made today after work.
[00:13]That might shock you.
[00:13]I'm here for that.
[00:16]In 2024, Francis, I...
[00:18]Do you think you make enough good choices in life
[00:20]to determine when you make poor ones or not?
[00:22]Oh.
[00:23]Like, is there a clear-cut line
[00:25]where you would know that was bad?
[00:27]I don't know when the last time is I made a good choice.
[00:30]Russ, let's keep...
[00:31]Russ, will you get a yellow legal pad for us?
[00:33]We need to put a...
[00:34]We need to get a...
[00:36]Put a line down the middle.
[00:37]On one side, we're going to put the good choices Rob made today.
[00:40]On the other side, we're going to put the bad.
[00:41]Rob, let's start off with a good choice.
[00:43]Two words.
[00:43]Stafford Interception.
[00:45]What a great choice, baby.
[00:46]The perfect bet.
[00:49]What a thrilling bet to make.
[00:50]People love our...
[00:52]Rob, Rob.
[00:52]Best things that we do on the pod.
[00:56]One is the maps thing.
[00:57]Number two is our sports gambling tip.
[01:00]They love it.
[01:00]That's what people love.
[01:01]Easy.
[01:01]They think it's great.
[01:03]In 2020, four friends decided to listen
[01:06]to every one of the greatest 500 albums
[01:07]decided by Rolling Stone Magazine.
[01:09]This resulted in a text chain that celebrated the music,
[01:11]excoriated the order,
[01:12]and led us to making this podcast.
[01:13]We are far from experts.
[01:15]We promise to do almost no research.
[01:16]All opinions are our own, unless you disagree.
[01:19]Please sit back and enjoy.
[01:21]Beck did it better.
[01:24]Russell, here's the problem, though.
[01:25]We had two choices to make.
[01:30]So, we actually made the wrong decision
[01:32]because it was either Stafford get an interception
[01:34]or Love have it over...
[01:36]Was it over a 35-yard pass?
[01:37]No, 39 so far.
[01:39]39.
[01:39]And both of them hit.
[01:40]So, we should have been parlaying that shit the whole time.
[01:43]Rob chickened out and just did one of them.
[01:45]Did you guys see there was a story about some guy
[01:47]who had like the biggest bet of the year,
[01:49]$3 million on the Eagles
[01:51]to beat Carolina coming up?
[01:54]I mean, I did hear that.
[01:56]I did hear that.
[01:57]How much do you guys want that guy to lose, right?
[01:59]Like, if anyone's got...
[02:00]Did he bet $3 million on the favorites
[02:01]so that it's $3 million to win $3 million in one?
[02:03]Somebody might have said
[02:06]we should be betting on Carolina all year.
[02:09]Our super secret gambling text chain
[02:10]has already covered this.
[02:11]We are betting against this guy, okay?
[02:14]It's called hedging our bets
[02:16]against some loser that's willing to bet $3 million
[02:18]on the favorites and then advertise it.
[02:19]Like, who would tell everybody that?
[02:21]What a loser.
[02:21]It's nothing like bringing up pop culture events
[02:23]with your friends and realizing
[02:24]they've already talked about it with your other friends.
[02:26]Wow, yeah.
[02:27]I'm not on that text chain.
[02:29]Are you, Russell?
[02:30]No, I'm not.
[02:30]Oh, that's the pay-to-play text chain.
[02:31]That's the Patreon text.
[02:32]You guys don't want to be on that text chain.
[02:35]I'm not willing to risk it all.
[02:37]Not lately.
[02:37]I don't want to be on that lately.
[02:38]I'm saving you guys from that text chain.
[02:40]Trust me.
[02:40]$500.
[02:41]There's lots of,
[02:44]oh, that was a good idea until it wasn't type text.
[02:46]We're like, oh, that was a great bet.
[02:48]It didn't matter if it hit or not.
[02:49]It was fun.
[02:49]Aaron, it really makes you wonder
[02:51]how the text chain started.
[02:52]Like, it had to be Aaron and Russ,
[02:54]I hope they don't come to Vegas this year,
[02:56]and then they started talking about something else, right?
[02:58]Right, how's this happen?
[03:00]It's like everyone going to Vegas
[03:00]except for Aaron and Russ.
[03:02]That's our dream is having less guys come to Vegas.
[03:05]Okay?
[03:06]And plus, Russ has to come.
[03:07]Otherwise, who's Joe going to stay up with?
[03:09]And that Saturday night when we're all like,
[03:11]okay, we're going to bed.
[03:12]It's four in the morning.
[03:13]Russ is like,
[03:14]one more table.
[03:15]I believe you were squatting people in the casino on that.
[03:19]I was still in bed at that point.
[03:20]Sunday night.
[03:21]We were squatting women.
[03:22]We were squatting women.
[03:23]I was also.
[03:24]Did Jenny know about that?
[03:25]Did she see the pictures?
[03:26]She'd be pissed at us.
[03:29]Are you saying that when I,
[03:30]I took the woman by the crap stable
[03:31]and then said I could squat you
[03:32]and then I'd put her on my back and squatted her?
[03:34]I don't think she's seen those pictures,
[03:36]but they have come up on the digital picture frame.
[03:38]What do you think is the heaviest human you could squat?
[03:41]Because that's different than squatting a barbell, right?
[03:42]350 pounds.
[03:44]Maybe I could do 400.
[03:47]You could do two of us, probably,
[03:49]if we chose the right two.
[03:50]Yeah, you, listen.
[03:50]No, yeah, if we chose the right two.
[03:52]You listen, listen.
[03:54]Aaron, you and I might be over Rob's limit.
[03:56]Yeah, it's true.
[03:57]Yeah, we're going to have to be.
[03:58]Yeah, you're right.
[03:59]I think I can squat.
[04:00]I can squat anybody
[04:00]until they get their own show on TLC.
[04:02]You know what I mean?
[04:03]And when you get your own show,
[04:05]that means I can't squat you anymore.
[04:06]You know what I mean?
[04:07]Like, if your weight is the title of the show,
[04:09]I've done a squat of you.
[04:10]The most embarrassing part
[04:12]was when Rob was squatting that woman in Vegas.
[04:13]He had to put, like, plates underneath his heels,
[04:16]you know, like amateurs
[04:16]that have to have little help
[04:18]to get them down and up.
[04:19]It was just amateur.
[04:21]Well, I was, you know,
[04:22]I had to wait for him to put his lifting shoes on.
[04:23]He's like, I can do this,
[04:24]but I got to run into my room first.
[04:25]My knee sleeves.
[04:26]Put my mouth guard in.
[04:28]Get my smelling salts.
[04:30]I had to pick up slightly smaller women
[04:31]to warm up with.
[04:32]I swear to God, I'm warming up.
[04:34]He got a wide stance.
[04:36]So really, he just went down
[04:37]about three inches and then back up.
[04:38]He's like, just a complete cheater.
[04:40]That's bullshit.
[04:40]Don't ever say that again.
[04:41]Back to Blackjack Dealer.
[04:43]Back to Blackjack Dealer
[04:44]spotting him from behind.
[04:46]I always squat to depth, man.
[04:48]Don't even joke about that.
[04:49]And we're up to album 218.
[04:52]And from, ooh, look at that.
[04:53]It's 1994.
[04:55]It's TLC with Crazy Sexy Cool.
[04:58]Do we have two albums in a row from 1994?
[05:00]Well, definitely, maybe it was 1994.
[05:02]I couldn't see the stage in a row.
[05:03]Wow.
[05:04]Hold on.
[05:06]Rob.
[05:06]Let me shut the fuck up
[05:08]while we're talking.
[05:09]Rob's trying to tell a joke.
[05:10]He's telling a joke.
[05:12]I know.
[05:13]TLC is one of the few.
[05:15]Does nobody have any respect
[05:16]for a comic's comedic timing?
[05:18]Nobody?
[05:18]Sorry.
[05:19]Be quiet.
[05:20]You know the secret to telling
[05:21]a good joke timing.
[05:22]TLC is named after,
[05:26]one of the few bands named
[05:26]after a TV station.
[05:28]Okay.
[05:28]Which reminds me of when I went
[05:29]and saw TLC.
[05:30]I've heard this before.
[05:30]When I went and saw Spice in concert,
[05:33]but I couldn't really see him that well.
[05:34]All right.
[05:36]Oh, that's a pretty good joke.
[05:38]I get it.
[05:38]Thank you.
[05:38]Yeah, yeah.
[05:39]It's a good joke.
[05:40]It's a good thing you're on Spotify.
[05:43]No, good thing you're on Audacity
[05:45]so we can actually hear you laughing.
[05:46]It's got to be something
[05:47]when you come downstairs
[05:48]and you see your kid jerking it
[05:49]to a scrambled channel.
[05:51]You're just like,
[05:52]God, this kid's got problems.
[05:54]You know what I mean?
[05:55]You can't even imagine something
[05:57]better than what you're
[05:58]looking at right now.
[05:59]You can't imagine something
[05:59]better than these lines
[06:00]moving around.
[06:01]Just terrible.
[06:02]Not a creative.
[06:04]I mean, there's audio too, right?
[06:06]How many times do you think
[06:07]your parents actually
[06:08]witnessed you in the act?
[06:09]Oh, God.
[06:10]I don't think, well,
[06:13]now that I'm an adult,
[06:15]I'm thinking it's a lot more
[06:17]than I thought.
[06:18]Like, they probably knew.
[06:19]You know what I mean?
[06:20]It's like, this kid's really...
[06:22]This kid's really sleeping
[06:23]under the blanket
[06:24]in the back of the car.
[06:25]Oh.
[06:25]Like, okay, sure.
[06:27]All of a sudden, he's so sleepy.
[06:29]I have to tell this story.
[06:31]One of the complimentary movie guys
[06:36]who has never called in,
[06:37]he's the one who's never called
[06:39]into the podcast,
[06:40]and I'm sure has never listened.
[06:42]Him and his girlfriend,
[06:44]they were probably late teens,
[06:47]early 20s,
[06:48]did a road trip with his parents,
[06:50]and he had sex with his girlfriend
[06:52]in the back of a van
[06:53]while his parents were
[06:54]in the front seat driving down
[06:56]and claims they didn't notice.
[06:57]What are your thoughts?
[06:58]There's no way.
[06:59]No way.
[07:00]There's no way.
[07:00]Come on.
[07:01]What could you do?
[07:03]I mean, if you look back
[07:04]and your kids were having sex
[07:05]in the back of the car,
[07:06]you could just be like,
[07:07]uh, do I, like,
[07:09]you stop the car?
[07:10]Like, slam on the brakes
[07:12]and act like you're having car troubles?
[07:13]I don't know what you'd do.
[07:14]Like, I mean, like,
[07:15]that's the story.
[07:16]Aaron, what is your problem, Aaron?
[07:17]Why are you so perverted?
[07:18]You want the full thing?
[07:19]I mean, come on.
[07:20]Oh, he's probably
[07:21]reaching under his shirt
[07:22]and touching her breast.
[07:23]Ugh.
[07:24]Aaron's like,
[07:25]oh, I'm disgusted by this story.
[07:26]No, I'm just saying, like,
[07:28]how would you disguise
[07:28]if you were, like,
[07:29]fully doing the thing, you know?
[07:32]You would need a big seatbelt.
[07:35]You know what I mean?
[07:36]Like, you're pulling that seatbelt
[07:37]all the way out.
[07:37]First, you need a big seatbelt.
[07:39]You're right.
[07:40]This is bad, Russell.
[07:45]Well, Johnny,
[07:45]why'd you order these
[07:46]extended seatbelts
[07:47]from Ace Auto,
[07:48]from O'Reilly's Auto Parts?
[07:50]Russell, was it a full van?
[07:52]Was it, like, a swivel chair?
[07:53]Like, could you swivel that chair
[07:54]all the way to the back
[07:55]and be like,
[07:55]hey, don't mind us back here?
[07:56]I don't know what the size
[07:57]of the van is.
[07:58]Like, given the timing,
[07:59]like, when minivans were big,
[08:01]I know minivans were...
[08:02]My guess is it's a regular,
[08:03]like, a silhouette.
[08:04]Is that a minivan?
[08:05]I'm guessing it's
[08:05]a three-row minivan.
[08:07]Wow.
[08:07]But I could be wrong.
[08:08]I don't think it's, like,
[08:09]a full-on van
[08:10]with, like, four rows.
[08:11]Oh, okay.
[08:12]Yeah, no, it's not
[08:13]a passenger van.
[08:14]He's not getting shuttled
[08:15]to the hotel.
[08:15]It's, like, a family van.
[08:17]That would be...
[08:20]You think you could
[08:21]pull it off, Rob, or not?
[08:22]Absolutely not.
[08:23]No, why not?
[08:24]Are you kidding?
[08:25]They'd be like,
[08:25]why do you keep saying
[08:26]is it in back there?
[08:27]Oh, no.
[08:28]You don't?
[08:29]Why?
[08:30]Stop saying that.
[08:31]Speaking of coming and going,
[08:34]Weird thing to say.
[08:35]Let's get right...
[08:37]Don't mind me,
[08:37]but I do need some Gatorade.
[08:38]Could we stop
[08:39]and get some Gatorade?
[08:40]I've got a terrible cramp.
[08:41]I cramp my hamstring.
[08:42]All right.
[08:43]Let's get into...
[08:45]You know what, guys?
[08:45]I say today for TLC,
[08:47]let's turn on the radio
[08:49]and just see what's on.
[08:50]I think this is...
[08:51]It's not a big deal.
[08:51]Okay, maybe we're all
[08:53]looking forward to a song.
[08:53]But maybe I'm not going to talk
[08:55]about how great my songs
[08:56]are anymore, okay?
[08:56]I've learned my lesson.
[08:57]Wait, wait, wait.
[08:58]I'm now humble.
[08:59]We're back to doing
[09:00]the parody songs?
[09:01]Baby, we never left.
[09:04]I love it.
[09:05]Back like cook crack.
[09:07]Throwback.
[09:07]Throwback episode.
[09:07]Welcome to KROB.
[09:08]K-R-O-B.
[09:09]Oh, Russell, come on in.
[09:12]Yeah, we're going to...
[09:13]We're going to have Thanksgiving.
[09:14]Yeah, take off your shoes there.
[09:16]We can...
[09:17]Oh, take off your shoes.
[09:19]Buzzer.
[09:19]Buzzer.
[09:20]Stop it.
[09:21]Stop it.
[09:22]Oh, I told you to stop it, Russell.
[09:23]Don't worry about it.
[09:24]They just get a little...
[09:27]They just get a little...
[09:27]They get a little protective.
[09:28]That's all.
[09:28]It's going to be fine.
[09:30]It's just...
[09:31]Okay, well,
[09:33]you were a little aggressive.
[09:35]Don't stand...
[09:35]Don't look them right in the eye, Russell.
[09:37]Oh, yeah.
[09:38]Russell's getting ready
[09:42]for Thanksgiving
[09:44]and he's eating
[09:46]with his roommate's relatives.
[09:48]This weekend,
[09:52]Russell just wants to relax.
[09:55]Sometimes his hearing
[09:57]can be so sensitive.
[09:59]Woo!
[10:00]Russell brought a gift.
[10:04]It's a bottle of wine.
[10:06]But he was worried
[10:08]when he knocked down the door.
[10:11]Oh, it's a gas.
[10:12]He heard a dog bark.
[10:15]He said,
[10:16]one dog is fine.
[10:18]But then it turned out
[10:20]there were six dogs more.
[10:22]What was he thinking?
[10:23]Russell doesn't like...
[10:27]your dogs at all.
[10:28]He flinches at the parking
[10:31]that everyone else is used to.
[10:34]He can't hear
[10:36]what anyone is saying at all.
[10:40]Plus, there was those
[10:41]three or four cats.
[10:43]Russell feels like
[10:49]he's eating in a zoo.
[10:51]It's like he's dining out
[10:54]in Noah's Ark.
[10:57]Russell can think
[11:00]of lots of better dates
[11:02]where he doesn't have to
[11:05]jump at every bark.
[11:07]Russell pretends
[11:11]that he likes the dogs
[11:13]because he wants
[11:14]the family of his roommate
[11:17]to like him.
[11:18]But Russell planned
[11:21]to leave this party
[11:22]at about 3 p.m.
[11:25]But he was out the door
[11:27]before 2.10.
[11:29]He was leaving.
[11:31]Russell doesn't like
[11:34]your dogs at all.
[11:36]He thinks that they should all
[11:38]be kept outside.
[11:40]When his roommate
[11:43]asked if he had fun
[11:45]with her family,
[11:47]he said yes,
[11:49]but he actually lied.
[11:51]Oh, no, no, no.
[11:53]Gotta believe that.
[11:56]Now, I was gonna...
[11:57]I was gonna rhyme
[11:59]euthanize at the end there
[12:01]somehow, but I couldn't
[12:01]figure out how to do it.
[12:02]Oh, God.
[12:03]The worst is,
[12:05]this is Rob's
[12:06]comedic timing again off.
[12:08]A few weeks ago,
[12:09]he insisted on doing
[12:10]an inappropriate beat song
[12:11]that we couldn't play.
[12:12]And he could have done
[12:13]Creep with Feet this week
[12:15]easily and...
[12:16]Just when you guys thought
[12:18]I was gonna do
[12:19]Creep with Feet,
[12:20]I switch it up.
[12:21]I knew you guys thought
[12:23]I was gonna do Creep with Feet.
[12:24]Listen, this is
[12:25]Back to the Better.
[12:26]We're talking about
[12:26]the greatest,
[12:27]500 albums of all time.
[12:28]According to Rolling Stone magazine,
[12:29]we are talking about
[12:30]TLC Creep,
[12:31]a song,
[12:32]an album that came out
[12:33]when I was 14.
[12:34]It's right,
[12:34]it hits me right in the heart,
[12:36]but I've got three guys here.
[12:37]Right?
[12:38]Right in the heart
[12:39]or right below the belt?
[12:40]Tell the truth.
[12:42]I've got three guys here
[12:43]who are getting a ride
[12:44]in my passenger side.
[12:45]And they're leaning out
[12:47]to holler at somebody.
[12:48]I've got Russell in Minneapolis.
[12:50]Russell, how are you doing?
[12:51]Rob, I've been watching you,
[12:53]and you've been watching me,
[12:54]and I know you want this podcast.
[12:56]Oh, wow.
[12:56]Let me kick a little game with you.
[12:58]Oh, guys, this album.
[13:00]I'm just going to say
[13:02]for a couple of these songs,
[13:03]we're going to be watching the videos, okay?
[13:04]We're going to be doing
[13:05]some live streaming.
[13:06]I've got Matt in Minneapolis.
[13:07]Matt, how are you doing today?
[13:08]Good, Rob.
[13:11]Sorry there.
[13:12]I had a little
[13:12]prickle in my throat.
[13:13]People try to say
[13:15]you act a little funny, Rob,
[13:17]but that's just a figure of speech to me.
[13:19]Oh, wow.
[13:19]Thank you so much.
[13:20]I'll take that as a compliment.
[13:21]And I've got Aaron out in California.
[13:23]Now, Aaron said
[13:24]that he wouldn't mind getting shot
[13:25]if the bullet said,
[13:26]this guy has a big,
[13:26]big dick on them.
[13:27]Oh, no.
[13:28]You stole my joke from next week.
[13:30]Rob, if I was your girlfriend,
[13:32]would you let me undress you?
[13:33]Let's talk about TLC and Creed.
[13:34]Listen, this guy,
[13:36]I just found something
[13:37]on these bullets.
[13:37]They all say this guy has a big dick
[13:39]and you see Aaron's corpse
[13:40]like turned into a smile like,
[13:41]yes, this is going to be in the news.
[13:43]Guys, we cannot, we can't listen.
[13:45]We cannot turn this
[13:45]into a manhunt podcast
[13:46]because it's all I want to talk about.
[13:48]I don't want to talk about it.
[13:49]It's still out there.
[13:50]I'm out.
[13:50]I'm out.
[13:50]Russell and I talked earlier
[13:52]before the podcast
[13:53]that Russell is 100% disinterested
[13:54]in this fascinating story.
[13:56]Good for you, Russell.
[13:56]Your life's better for it.
[13:58]Thank you.
[13:58]Yep.
[13:58]Yep.
[13:59]No, I am, of course,
[14:01]I do go to work
[14:02]and I stopped right at that city bike
[14:03]at the station
[14:04]that that guy took off
[14:05]into the park.
[14:05]Okay.
[14:06]I fully inspected the next day
[14:07]to see if I could find any clues.
[14:09]Okay.
[14:10]Did you know that allegedly
[14:11]you can like hack into the system
[14:13]and just see where the bikes are going
[14:15]and who's renting what bikes
[14:16]and what time they take off?
[14:17]I saw somebody on Twitter
[14:18]was doing that.
[14:19]He's like,
[14:19]I just happened to scrape data
[14:20]every minute
[14:21]for where all the city bikes are.
[14:22]I was like, oh, you're a creep.
[14:23]You're the,
[14:24]you're the creep of the apartment.
[14:26]You're looking for people
[14:27]on their bikes.
[14:27]Yeah.
[14:28]Oh, you're okay.
[14:28]You're a weirdo.
[14:29]Thank you.
[14:29]Good to know.
[14:30]Okay.
[14:30]Good to know who I should block
[14:31]on Twitter.
[14:32]Not that I'm on Twitter anymore,
[14:33]by the way,
[14:33]Beck did it better
[14:34]is officially off Twitter.
[14:35]I am too, man.
[14:36]It was bad for my mentals.
[14:37]It is now on blue sky
[14:39]where it is now following
[14:40]not as much.
[14:41]There's not as much sex stuff
[14:42]going on in blue sky.
[14:43]I will say that,
[14:43]but I will tell you right now,
[14:45]tick tock guys,
[14:47]all my tick tock is
[14:48]all the Beck did about
[14:49]tick tock is right now
[14:50]is attractive women
[14:52]in the office
[14:52]walking toward you.
[14:53]I don't know how I got there.
[14:55]I don't know why I'm there,
[14:57]but I like every video
[14:58]and I feel I cannot let anyone
[15:00]know that that's what
[15:01]my videos are.
[15:02]Okay.
[15:03]Don't tell anybody.
[15:03]I won't tell anybody.
[15:04]Keep that under your hat
[15:05]on the download.
[15:06]Hey,
[15:07]at least it's not
[15:08]just tick tocks
[15:09]of Rudy Gobert interviews
[15:10]because I'm not saying it's me,
[15:12]but someone in this household
[15:13]has got a thing
[15:14]for Rudy Gobert interviews.
[15:15]I'm just saying.
[15:16]I can't believe
[15:17]they don't tell me.
[15:18]It's just the interviews.
[15:19]It's not even the game.
[15:20]It's just the interviews.
[15:22]Bobster's roommate
[15:22]is now super,
[15:23]super into not only the wolves,
[15:25]but has to watch
[15:26]all the postgame interviews.
[15:27]I've been there.
[15:28]She wants to hear
[15:29]what Chris Finch
[15:30]has to say about every game.
[15:31]I love it.
[15:32]I've been that person.
[15:33]I just got a text.
[15:34]She's listening the next morning.
[15:35]Just enjoy it.
[15:36]Just let it wash over you.
[15:37]Enjoy it.
[15:38]I love it.
[15:38]I just got a text
[15:40]saying Draymond Green
[15:41]is a big baby.
[15:42]He just got a technical foul
[15:43]for arguing.
[15:44]She's got thoughts
[15:45]about Draymond Green, Aaron.
[15:46]He's playing tonight?
[15:46]I thought he wasn't playing tonight.
[15:48]He can't be recording.
[15:49]We're going to be watching
[15:49]Wolves Warriors.
[15:50]Listen.
[15:51]Do the music.
[15:52]Listen.
[15:54]That was my Rudy Gobert impression.
[15:55]No joke whatsoever.
[15:56]I had no joke
[15:57]to follow that up with.
[15:57]What would be a good
[15:58]Rudy Gobert joke?
[15:59]It's like his playoff
[16:00]career number,
[16:01]his career playoff number.
[16:02]Oh, Aaron.
[16:03]Why would you bring that up, Aaron?
[16:04]That is a joke.
[16:05]You asked for Rudy Gobert jokes.
[16:06]The last time I ever make
[16:09]my Iowa State lock
[16:11]is my college football
[16:12]pick of the week, Aaron.
[16:13]Oh, no.
[16:13]Don't do that.
[16:14]Don't do that to yourself.
[16:16]People from Lakeville
[16:16]knows what I'm talking about.
[16:17]Let's get right into it.
[16:19]Let's get into the voicemail.
[16:23]Well...
[16:24]Started out with a kiss
[16:25]How did it end up like this?
[16:27]It was only a kiss
[16:29]It was only a kiss
[16:30]Now I'm falling asleep
[16:32]And she's calling
[16:33]Us on the back line.
[16:34]Oh, my God.
[16:35]802-277
[16:36]Again, I forget it's there.
[16:37]802-277-2325
[16:38]Every time.
[16:39]Dude,
[16:40]as someone who has attended
[16:42]his fair share of comedy
[16:43]open mics,
[16:44]let me tell you,
[16:45]that shit was hilarious.
[16:47]Yes.
[16:47]You killed it.
[16:48]I hope you will continue
[16:49]to perform.
[16:50]That was such tight set
[16:52]that was well thought out
[16:53]and well done.
[16:53]Awesome job.
[16:55]That is a voicemail
[16:57]from let's give it up
[16:59]for our number one fan.
[16:59]It's Magic Mike.
[17:01]Nice.
[17:02]All right.
[17:03]Magic Mike left a message
[17:05]saying that it was actually
[17:06]a good set
[17:07]and I did a great job,
[17:08]which is good news
[17:09]because guess what's happening
[17:10]again on Tuesday?
[17:11]Are you performing
[17:12]at Magic Mike Night 69?
[17:14]I am performing
[17:15]at Open Magic Mike Night 69.
[17:17]Yes.
[17:18]I am telling a couple new jokes.
[17:20]Okay, guess what?
[17:21]Wife's pubic hair bit, out.
[17:23]Yeah.
[17:23]Yes, I agree.
[17:24]Wife's boob and butthole bit, in.
[17:26]Okay, we're switching it up.
[17:28]Junior mint one?
[17:30]We're doing the junior mint.
[17:31]We're doing the sand monsters.
[17:32]Okay, we're doing the
[17:34]my wife's breasts look like
[17:36]they're reading a book
[17:37]and then you look down like this.
[17:38]You know what I mean?
[17:38]Oh, you can't.
[17:42]No, not as recorded.
[17:44]You can't.
[17:45]They look like pillows
[17:46]that I've been sleeping on
[17:47]for five years.
[17:47]Oh, no.
[17:48]You should change your pillow.
[17:50]Like, you shouldn't sleep
[17:52]on the same pillow for five years.
[17:53]It's bad for your neck.
[17:53]Tell me about it.
[17:55]I mean, I knew you were
[17:56]a belly sleeper.
[17:57]Did I tell you what I did?
[17:58]I, okay.
[18:00]I messaged, I put out,
[18:02]does anybody have a pillow
[18:03]for a side sleeper?
[18:04]And my old Achilles heel,
[18:07]a girl I had a crush on
[18:10]in high school,
[18:11]messaged me.
[18:12]Wearing a person dead t-shirt.
[18:13]Oh, yeah, tell me about it.
[18:15]Here is the pillow you need.
[18:16]That got edited out, Aaron,
[18:17]by the way.
[18:17]That got edited out.
[18:18]Nobody knows what we're talking about.
[18:19]Now you sound like the creep.
[18:21]But she messaged me
[18:23]and she said,
[18:24]hey, here's a pillow I really like.
[18:25]It's a Tempur-Pedic.
[18:27]So it's like a very hard
[18:28]memory foam pillow.
[18:30]Okay?
[18:31]So of course, I buy it.
[18:33]Sight unseen.
[18:33]150 bucks.
[18:35]Buy it.
[18:36]Don't even think about it.
[18:37]Just do it.
[18:37]Guess what?
[18:39]I can't even put my arm under it.
[18:40]It's not for side sleepers.
[18:41]It's for like back sleepers.
[18:44]So this pillow I bought
[18:45]is now just sitting
[18:46]by the side of my bed.
[18:46]It's totally useless.
[18:47]We need to diagram this out.
[18:49]I'm not sure how we're going
[18:50]to do this on a podcast.
[18:51]So your side sleeping method
[18:53]is,
[18:53]arm under the pillow?
[18:55]Yes.
[18:56]That's fine.
[18:57]I go with that one.
[18:58]I'm that way too.
[19:00]Arm.
[19:01]Yes.
[19:01]I'll go with an arm.
[19:02]Pillow is in between
[19:03]the crook of the arm
[19:04]and the head.
[19:04]What are you doing, Aaron,
[19:06]that there's no arm
[19:07]under the pillow?
[19:07]I guess I just keep my arms.
[19:09]Are your arms at your side?
[19:10]I think so.
[19:10]Are your arms at your side
[19:11]and your face down?
[19:12]Yeah.
[19:13]No, I'm generally
[19:14]a side sleeper too,
[19:15]but I guess I've never
[19:16]put the arm under the pillow.
[19:17]I've got a rotator cuff
[19:19]there.
[19:19]Where's that other arm at, Aaron?
[19:21]Where's that other arm at?
[19:23]It just shows that Aaron's
[19:24]not that big of a guy
[19:25]because the idea of lying
[19:26]on one of my arms,
[19:27]it would instantly fall asleep.
[19:28]Like my arm under the pillow
[19:29]falls asleep.
[19:30]I wake up and this thing's
[19:31]basically been neutered
[19:32]off my body.
[19:32]It's all tingly.
[19:33]And I wake up in the morning
[19:35]with a tingly arm
[19:36]and I'm like,
[19:36]hmm,
[19:37]I wonder what I should do now.
[19:39]Matt, that's usually
[19:41]your comedy bit.
[19:42]The stranger.
[19:43]Yeah.
[19:43]Yeah.
[19:44]The stranger.
[19:45]Matt's watching something.
[19:46]Matt's watching sports.
[19:47]I'm trying to find my pillow
[19:48]because I was going to...
[19:50]I got like a $120 pillow.
[19:51]Go to mypillow.com
[19:53]That's where you bought
[19:53]all your pillows.
[19:54]That's what you told me earlier.
[19:55]Yeah, they can't get
[19:57]to that website.
[19:58]I don't like his pillows,
[20:02]but he's got some good ideas.
[20:03]What is your pillow, man?
[20:04]I'm trying to find it.
[20:06]I was going to try to find a time
[20:09]to go find my phone.
[20:09]My phone's upstairs.
[20:10]I could go get it.
[20:11]I think we bought it on Amazon.
[20:12]I washed it.
[20:13]I tried to wash it one time.
[20:15]Washed the wrong thing.
[20:16]What?
[20:17]Washed your pillow?
[20:17]How do you get a new one?
[20:18]Oh, yeah.
[20:19]You put the whole pillow
[20:21]in the wash?
[20:21]You can wash pillows.
[20:23]Oh, okay.
[20:23]No, that's not true.
[20:25]That's actually new to me, too.
[20:26]That's not true.
[20:27]That can't be true.
[20:28]Google washing.
[20:28]Just Google it right now.
[20:29]Washing.
[20:30]Can you wash your pillow?
[20:31]You kind of have to, right?
[20:33]Or otherwise,
[20:33]you should be throwing it away
[20:34]at some point.
[20:35]Arthur Stewart says,
[20:37]how to wash your pillow
[20:38]the right way.
[20:39]You put it in.
[20:40]Okay, a mix of dead skin
[20:41]and dust mites.
[20:42]I do know pillows gain
[20:43]like three pounds
[20:44]after like five years
[20:45]because they're getting
[20:46]all your dead skin in there.
[20:47]Pillows should be cleaned
[20:49]every three to six months.
[20:51]Oof.
[20:52]Okay.
[20:53]That would be,
[20:54]I'm 44 years old,
[20:55]so that should have been,
[20:55]I should have cleaned
[20:56]my pillows 88 times.
[20:57]I have cleaned them
[20:58]zero times.
[20:59]I have never cleaned
[21:01]my pillows ever.
[21:02]That's crazy.
[21:03]How do machine wash pillows?
[21:04]Pre-treat stains.
[21:06]Okay.
[21:07]Okay, I'm done.
[21:08]I'm closing this site.
[21:08]Pre-treat stains.
[21:09]Okay, Rockefeller,
[21:11]I got all the time
[21:12]in the world
[21:13]pre-treating stains.
[21:14]Get the fuck out of here.
[21:14]Can you imagine
[21:16]if someone caught you
[21:17]and you're like,
[21:17]what are you doing today?
[21:18]I'm like,
[21:18]I'm washing my pillow.
[21:19]You'd be so ashamed, right?
[21:21]You just throw it in.
[21:22]What's he throw it in?
[21:22]What's he throw it in
[21:23]with the rest of your?
[21:23]Listen.
[21:24]You got your comforter.
[21:25]That's got to go in by itself.
[21:27]But then you got your sheets
[21:28]and your pillowcases
[21:29]and you throw the pillow
[21:30]in with it.
[21:30]Is there anything
[21:31]that ruins a night
[21:32]when you and your spouse
[21:33]come home
[21:34]and you're just ready
[21:35]to hop in bed
[21:36]at just getting
[21:37]like a Friday night,
[21:38]you're ready for a long sleep.
[21:39]You don't have to do a podcast.
[21:40]I mean,
[21:40]you don't get to do
[21:41]the podcast that night.
[21:41]You're ready for a long sleep
[21:43]and you go to your room
[21:45]and the bed is not made.
[21:46]You forgot that you
[21:47]had washed the sheets
[21:48]and it's a bare bed
[21:49]and now you have to
[21:50]work together
[21:51]to make the bed
[21:52]and it's the worst.
[21:54]Except,
[21:54]you know what I make my wife do
[21:56]when we do that?
[21:57]You go to bed earlier than you.
[21:58]I lie down on the bed
[22:00]when we put the bottom sheet on
[22:01]and then I make her
[22:02]fluff the top sheet
[22:03]on top of me
[22:03]because that's what my dad
[22:04]used to always do to me.
[22:05]Like all the way through
[22:06]when I was in college,
[22:07]he would come in
[22:07]and then fluff the sheet on me
[22:08]and then put a pillow on me.
[22:09]Oh, they put a blankie on me.
[22:11]Oh, so night when Jenny
[22:12]first slept over my house
[22:13]when we were first married,
[22:14]my dad tucked her in.
[22:15]Okay, there's something
[22:17]I wish I wouldn't have said.
[22:18]Whoa.
[22:18]Let's move on to
[22:19]Rollin' Going.
[22:22]It is time.
[22:24]I thank God, man,
[22:25]that got up to get his phone.
[22:26]He'll never know what I said.
[22:27]That's a truly bizarre thing
[22:29]you just said.
[22:29]Yeah, he did the thing
[22:31]where she was,
[22:32]oh, okay.
[22:33]Never mind.
[22:34]Never mind.
[22:36]Okay.
[22:37]Matt,
[22:39]I didn't say that my dad
[22:40]tucked my wife into bed
[22:41]one time.
[22:42]Rollin' Going, Aaron.
[22:44]Huh?
[22:45]Nothing.
[22:46]Aaron, wouldn't you want me,
[22:48]how about this, Aaron?
[22:49]We're going to Vegas soon.
[22:50]Yeah.
[22:50]Okay, January.
[22:51]Yep.
[22:52]I'll tuck.
[22:53]January 18th through the 21st.
[22:54]New York, New York.
[22:55]We'll see you there.
[22:56]I will tuck you in, Aaron,
[22:58]to your bed.
[22:59]I'll come to your room
[23:00]and I'll tuck you in.
[23:00]You lie down.
[23:01]I'll put a sheet.
[23:02]I'll kind of blow it up
[23:03]on top of you.
[23:03]Okay, I'll pick up that top sheet.
[23:05]I'll tuck you in all tight.
[23:07]And in fact,
[23:07]it'll be the tightest
[23:08]you've ever been in a bed.
[23:09]It's going to be so tight
[23:10]it's going to blow your mind.
[23:10]We'll shove that pillow
[23:11]in between the crook of his arm.
[23:12]Yep, yep.
[23:14]You can lie face down
[23:15]or however you sleep,
[23:15]whatever messed up way you sleep.
[23:17]Okay?
[23:19]If a guy that looks like Dauber
[23:20]comes into the room,
[23:21]it's normal.
[23:21]Just let it happen.
[23:23]I don't know who my roommate is yet.
[23:24]We had a,
[23:25]there was somebody left,
[23:26]it was like a hanging chat out there.
[23:27]Like, hey,
[23:28]who's going to room with who?
[23:29]And I was like, whoa,
[23:30]it feels like kind of early
[23:31]to be doing rooming assignments.
[23:32]Like, let's let,
[23:33]let's let this thing
[23:35]ride until January.
[23:36]It felt like,
[23:36]it felt like a premature commitment.
[23:38]Yeah, right?
[23:40]Like, I don't know
[23:41]who I'm going to be sleeping with
[23:42]for until after the new year.
[23:44]We got to see how this plays out.
[23:46]Maybe Aaron wants a room with me.
[23:47]You never know.
[23:48]We're going to switch it up.
[23:49]But Aaron comes into rooms with me.
[23:51]All right?
[23:52]We end up going hiking together.
[23:53]Yes.
[23:54]You know,
[23:55]you know that can't happen
[23:56]because you're the only one
[23:57]who can stay with Dave.
[23:59]Yeah.
[23:59]You guys got to get your smoking room.
[24:01]You got a special,
[24:01]special thing going on.
[24:03]Anytime we have a smoking room,
[24:05]I smoke in the shower
[24:06]and I'm like,
[24:06]this is terrible.
[24:07]I feel awful.
[24:09]That's amazing.
[24:10]I do want to have a cigarette
[24:11]in the shower.
[24:11]That's incredible.
[24:12]If you were going to do
[24:13]the smoking room, Rob,
[24:14]who would be your preferred
[24:15]roommate from the people
[24:17]going on the trip this year?
[24:19]I think Matt and I
[24:20]have roomed together before.
[24:21]Haven't we, Matt?
[24:21]Oh, yeah.
[24:22]You guys got caught
[24:23]watching Draft Day one afternoon.
[24:25]The only problem
[24:26]rooming with Matt
[24:27]is that I do end up buying,
[24:28]every time I'm with Matt,
[24:29]I end up buying T-shirts
[24:31]that at the time
[24:32]I think are very funny.
[24:32]And then when they show up,
[24:34]it's the,
[24:34]I make the THX noise
[24:36]when I come shirt.
[24:36]Oh, look at this shirt.
[24:37]This is great.
[24:38]Oh, yeah.
[24:38]You got to buy that.
[24:39]When am I ever going to wear this?
[24:40]Matt, bad T-shirts
[24:42]on the notepad right here.
[24:43]Yellow notepad right there.
[24:45]There you go.
[24:46]You don't think a MasterCard
[24:47]Sex With Me
[24:48]priceless shirt
[24:49]was worth it?
[24:50]That's crazy.
[24:52]Aaron, we're only going on
[24:53]as we're going with you.
[24:54]Hold on.
[24:54]One thing.
[24:55]Well, last time
[24:56]we stayed together,
[24:57]remember when Russ
[24:59]was just all of a sudden
[24:59]in our room?
[25:00]We're like,
[25:00]how are we doing, Russ?
[25:02]I wasn't in your room.
[25:04]I was in Rob's bed.
[25:05]Yeah, you thought
[25:06]we were in your room.
[25:07]We're like,
[25:08]Rob's just kind of
[25:09]hanging out like
[25:10]waiting for
[25:11]what's going on here, Russ.
[25:12]Yeah.
[25:12]I should have
[25:13]tucked Russell in.
[25:14]I'm going to tuck
[25:15]one of you guys in.
[25:16]Okay, get ready
[25:17]to get tucked.
[25:18]I'm going to tuck you
[25:19]so hard.
[25:20]I'm not opposed
[25:20]if you want to tuck me in.
[25:22]I guess it's fine.
[25:22]You know what, Aaron?
[25:23]I can tuck you.
[25:24]I can finger tuck you.
[25:26]No.
[25:27]I can tuck you
[25:29]in from behind.
[25:29]Oh.
[25:30]None of these
[25:31]are sounding good.
[25:32]There's so many ways
[25:33]I could tuck you in.
[25:33]I could tuck you in hard.
[25:34]I could tuck you in soft.
[25:35]It doesn't matter.
[25:36]I could tuck a lot
[25:36]of different ways.
[25:37]I'm going to go for soft,
[25:38]I think.
[25:38]I'm not sure.
[25:39]Whatever's the fastest.
[25:40]I'll tell you what.
[25:41]After I do it,
[25:41]you're going to be a family
[25:42]that lives forever.
[25:43]That tuck is going
[25:45]to be everlasting.
[25:45]Oh!
[25:48]I did not see
[25:49]Tuck Everlasting
[25:50]coming up on the show today.
[25:51]Okay, go ahead.
[25:54]I mean, that's...
[25:55]That might be the joke
[25:56]of the entire podcast.
[25:57]218-plus episodes.
[26:00]We nailed it.
[26:00]Goodbye.
[26:01]Tuck Everlasting.
[26:02]Rob's also going to have
[26:05]a funny haircut
[26:05]and be wearing
[26:06]a big brown robe
[26:07]and be playing
[26:08]Brian Adams
[26:09]while he fryer-tucks
[26:10]you into that bed.
[26:11]Everything I do
[26:17]Everything I do
[26:17]Everything I do
[26:17]Everything I do
[26:18]Yes, Russell.
[26:19]I do it for you
[26:22]as I tuck it,
[26:22]my fingers brush it.
[26:24]No, it's true.
[26:24]My fingers brush your face
[26:25]as you close your eyes.
[26:26]Raise your hand
[26:27]if you may or may not
[26:28]have had a small streak
[26:30]of time in the last few weeks
[26:31]when you listened to
[26:32]the Robin Hood
[26:33]Prince of Thieves soundtrack.
[26:34]Whoa.
[26:35]Is it just me?
[26:36]Russell is getting laid.
[26:39]You love to hear it.
[26:40]You love to hear it.
[26:43]Aaron, roll and go.
[26:47]I was going with you.
[26:48]It's really good.
[26:49]It's mostly good.
[26:50]I had a kind of
[26:52]rough experience tonight.
[26:53]I'm wondering, like,
[26:53]what have you guys
[26:55]had the experience
[26:55]where a takeout spot
[26:57]just falls off
[26:58]and it's like you've been
[26:59]been to the takeout spot
[27:00]a few times
[27:01]and maybe it's been
[27:02]like a while since you went
[27:03]and then you go back
[27:04]and it just
[27:05]so the Thai spot
[27:06]in Rockridge
[27:08]Thai food.
[27:08]That's mine, too.
[27:09]Yeah, it's always been OK.
[27:11]Like the one in Rockridge
[27:12]has been good.
[27:12]It doesn't have sticky rice.
[27:13]Wallace wants sticky rice,
[27:14]but we can usually talk
[27:15]him into going down there
[27:16]because they got egg rice
[27:18]rolls.
[27:18]It's fine.
[27:18]They got a catfish dish
[27:20]down there.
[27:20]I like they switched up
[27:22]the catfish from fillets
[27:23]to steaks.
[27:24]Have you guys dealt
[27:25]with fish steaks in your lives?
[27:26]I don't think so.
[27:27]Oh, man.
[27:28]Like,
[27:28]what the hell are you
[27:32]talking about?
[27:32]Fish steaks.
[27:33]A steak is a fish cut.
[27:35]You know,
[27:35]now I've heard of
[27:36]mistakes, but fish steaks.
[27:37]You know,
[27:39]a fish steak is basically
[27:40]instead of doing a fillet,
[27:41]you take a take a fish
[27:42]and if my arm is the fish,
[27:44]you cut it in cross sections.
[27:46]So it's like you cut it
[27:47]like it's a carton.
[27:48]You're just cutting it
[27:48]so you can see.
[27:49]Yeah.
[27:49]And I make this mistake
[27:51]about once every three years.
[27:52]I buy I buy salmon steaks
[27:54]because I'm like,
[27:54]oh, look at that.
[27:55]It's beautiful.
[27:56]It looks like I'm like,
[27:57]that's what that's what
[27:57]a man would eat.
[27:58]Right.
[27:59]And then like I cook it up
[28:00]and I can't get it cooked right.
[28:01]And then there's a you got
[28:02]to deal with like bones
[28:04]in a way that you weren't
[28:05]used to dealing with bones.
[28:06]It never works out.
[28:07]And yeah,
[28:07]I deal with those bones.
[28:09]The fish steaks from
[28:10]or switch the catfish
[28:11]from fillets to steaks
[28:13]and the whole thing was off.
[28:14]And so what do you get?
[28:15]I mean,
[28:15]obviously I got to like
[28:16]not go back.
[28:17]But have you guys
[28:18]had that experience
[28:18]where like your solid spot
[28:20]just turns south?
[28:21]Road Osha.
[28:22]Road Osha,
[28:23]the Thai spot in Minneapolis.
[28:25]No.
[28:25]Road Osha went south?
[28:26]Well,
[28:27]it was on 26th and Hennepin.
[28:30]Yeah.
[28:30]So, you know,
[28:31]a little bit north of Lake Street,
[28:33]but not quite,
[28:33]you know,
[28:34]to like Lowry neighborhood,
[28:36]you know,
[28:37]kind of a deal.
[28:37]So like straight over
[28:38]from the wedge,
[28:39]but not.
[28:40]Yeah.
[28:40]A little bit,
[28:41]a little bit south of the wedge.
[28:42]Okay.
[28:42]Kind of by kind of by
[28:44]what's the they got Lake Lake
[28:46]is it Lake?
[28:46]Like the Chipotle Lake
[28:50]or whatever.
[28:50]Yeah.
[28:50]And south of one parking lot
[28:51]keeps flooding.
[28:52]Oh my God.
[28:53]Right.
[28:54]Yeah.
[28:55]So that used to be
[28:56]a standalone,
[28:57]a standalone building,
[28:59]right?
[28:59]It had its own restaurant.
[29:00]It was cool restaurant inside.
[29:02]The guy that owned the building
[29:03]ended up selling it
[29:04]to put up a Dave Paradise,
[29:07]put up a parking lot,
[29:08]but it was like a CVS
[29:10]with a drive-through now
[29:11]or something stupid like that.
[29:12]That's what we need.
[29:13]So then Road Osha had to move.
[29:15]I need condoms.
[29:16]Hello, I need condoms.
[29:19]No, not that many.
[29:20]No, not that.
[29:22]What is that?
[29:23]Ribbed.
[29:23]Can you get some of the body
[29:25]washed out of that locker
[29:26]while you're at it too, right?
[29:27]Herb.
[29:28]Geez.
[29:29]Why is that guy putting
[29:30]poking pins in these?
[29:31]What?
[29:32]Do you have anything
[29:34]that's the opposite of lube?
[29:35]There's too much lube.
[29:36]What's the opposite?
[29:39]Too little?
[29:40]Sand?
[29:41]I'm putting down kitty litter.
[29:42]I don't know what to do.
[29:43]Oh God.
[29:43]What?
[29:44]What?
[29:44]Oh man.
[29:46]How would you do?
[29:46]How would you do that?
[29:47]I don't know.
[29:48]Guys, don't think about it.
[29:50]Can you guys stop
[29:51]letting me interrupt you so much?
[29:53]Please.
[29:54]Road Osha had to move
[29:55]to Calhoun Square,
[29:56]which you can't call
[29:57]Calhoun Square anymore.
[29:58]It's called Five Crowns,
[29:59]which is at
[30:00]Edipen Lake.
[30:02]Wait, it's not called
[30:03]Calhoun Square anymore?
[30:04]No, because Lake Calhoun
[30:06]is now Bede, La Casca.
[30:07]So everything that's got Calhoun
[30:09]is out.
[30:09]Is Famous Is Out still there?
[30:11]Nothing.
[30:11]No, that closed as well.
[30:14]That's really turned into
[30:15]quite the...
[30:16]Now we can't go to
[30:18]Aaron's favorite restaurant,
[30:19]Colonizers.
[30:21]So it's changed hands
[30:26]about three times
[30:27]and it's still okay.
[30:29]It's still okay.
[30:30]But they don't put cashews
[30:32]in anymore.
[30:33]A big cashew guy.
[30:35]Hello.
[30:36]A big cashew guy.
[30:37]You know?
[30:38]And so,
[30:39]and it's just,
[30:40]and they only take,
[30:41]the restaurant only needs
[30:42]about half its space.
[30:43]And so when you go in
[30:44]to pick up the food,
[30:45]the back half is like
[30:46]just dark.
[30:46]And so it's just,
[30:47]it's just a weird setup
[30:48]and weird layout.
[30:50]So we've been going to...
[30:52]Russell perked up though.
[30:52]Russell perked up
[30:53]when you said the back
[30:54]of the restaurant was dark.
[30:55]He's like,
[30:55]sounds like a good date.
[30:57]Yeah.
[30:58]There's another Thai place
[30:59]across Hennepin
[31:01]on the other side.
[31:02]So kind of by the,
[31:03]used to be the Apple store.
[31:05]Now it was,
[31:06]there's a new venue there
[31:08]that used to be a movie theater.
[31:09]What's that venue?
[31:10]Isn't it a concert venue
[31:11]right there?
[31:12]Russell went there
[31:12]this summer.
[31:13]The Granada?
[31:14]Yeah.
[31:16]Yeah.
[31:16]But right next to there,
[31:17]I think it's a...
[31:18]But there's nothing
[31:21]more heartbreaking, Aaron,
[31:23]than your favorite
[31:25]takeout place
[31:25]just starting to go downhill.
[31:26]I know, man.
[31:27]And you end up
[31:28]sticking with them
[31:29]until the very, very end,
[31:31]which is also
[31:31]the very sad thing.
[31:32]Yeah.
[31:32]So we've been trying
[31:33]to find a new Thai place.
[31:35]Well, I'll be, yeah.
[31:36]Nothing's quite like it.
[31:37]I mean, I'll be sticking
[31:37]with Soy Ford
[31:38]because it's right next
[31:39]to George and Walt's
[31:40]where I can get a
[31:41]bonded Jack Daniel's rye
[31:42]and a Death in Texas
[31:43]for $9.
[31:44]So, I mean,
[31:45]what am I supposed to do?
[31:46]Well, I'm waiting
[31:46]for my takeout,
[31:47]but have a little
[31:48]shine of beer.
[31:49]The pizza place
[31:50]on Roosevelt Island
[31:51]has a problem right now.
[31:53]Basically, here's the deal.
[31:54]They cannot deliver
[31:55]a pepperoni pizza.
[31:58]What about a cheese pizza?
[32:00]They can deliver
[32:02]a cheese pizza,
[32:02]but there is no option
[32:03]for a pepperoni pizza
[32:04]on their app.
[32:05]So if you want...
[32:07]Okay, this is crazy.
[32:07]So when my kid wants pizza,
[32:09]I have to tell her,
[32:10]okay...
[32:10]Let's order a pizza right now.
[32:11]Let's go see this.
[32:12]This can't be true.
[32:13]So here's the deal.
[32:14]I told my daughter,
[32:15]I was like,
[32:16]do you want a pepperoni pizza?
[32:17]You got to go pick it up.
[32:21]You need to walk 100 yards
[32:22]and go pick it up
[32:23]or they'll deliver it
[32:24]and it's cheese
[32:25]and every time
[32:26]she would pick the cheese.
[32:27]She's so lazy.
[32:28]She's like,
[32:29]I'll just take the cheese.
[32:30]I don't care.
[32:30]It doesn't matter
[32:31]if it's not what I want.
[32:32]Yeah, that's amazing.
[32:33]You can get your own pepperonis
[32:34]and put them on there
[32:35]if you want.
[32:35]Russell, you went out
[32:37]and what happened
[32:38]with your nephew?
[32:38]We went to a restaurant
[32:40]where the tavern
[32:42]in Apple Valley,
[32:42]I'd recommend it.
[32:43]It's kind of by my mom's house.
[32:45]There's a tavern,
[32:46]off of France.
[32:47]You know what they call that?
[32:49]You know what they call that?
[32:50]I believe it'd be
[32:50]the Tavern on France.
[32:51]Tavern on France.
[32:53]There's a few of those.
[32:54]There's one up in Blaine.
[32:55]There's one in Apple Valley,
[32:56]which is South Metro,
[32:57]I would say, Matt.
[32:58]There's one in Blaine called.
[32:59]The thing is,
[33:00]is that this is exactly,
[33:01]you guys are joking,
[33:02]but this is exactly
[33:03]what people from the cities
[33:04]sound like when they talk.
[33:05]They think it's so fun
[33:06]to remember
[33:07]like these little roads.
[33:08]What is the cities?
[33:08]What are you talking about?
[33:09]What's the cities?
[33:10]Anywhere from Blaine
[33:12]all the way up to like,
[33:13]I don't know,
[33:13]Forest Lake.
[33:14]All the way down to Lake,
[33:16]Lakeville,
[33:16]the whole thing.
[33:17]Now I'm doing it.
[33:18]It calls a tavern.
[33:19]But we go to this restaurant
[33:21]and get, you know,
[33:21]burgers, pizza, salads.
[33:23]They got everything.
[33:24]Huge menu, right?
[33:25]And my nephew
[33:26]is running off
[33:27]the kid's menu
[33:28]and he orders pizza
[33:29]with like sausage,
[33:31]no cheese.
[33:32]And I was like,
[33:33]damn,
[33:33]and he liked it.
[33:34]So I'm like,
[33:35]power to you
[33:36]if that's what you like
[33:36]and you don't want
[33:37]the cheese.
[33:37]Do they do the thing
[33:38]where they like,
[33:39]you get a little notepad
[33:41]and you're like checking off
[33:42]what you want on it and stuff?
[33:43]No, no.
[33:43]They took the order, man,
[33:45]and they nailed it,
[33:46]right?
[33:46]And I was kind of worried
[33:47]because I feel like
[33:48]that's like a 51% chance
[33:51]that gets messed up, right?
[33:52]Yeah.
[33:53]Is this kid,
[33:54]is this kid
[33:55]probably smarter
[33:56]than all of us
[33:57]because, you know,
[33:57]ever since Rob was talking
[33:59]about his tummy
[34:00]with ice cream and stuff,
[34:01]I've realized that,
[34:02]you know what,
[34:02]I've got that same affliction.
[34:04]I just,
[34:04]it's a,
[34:05]if I love ice cream,
[34:07]but it's going to be
[34:08]two days of rolling the dice.
[34:10]Oh.
[34:10]Let me tell you.
[34:11]Wow.
[34:12]You know what I think
[34:13]would be nice
[34:13]in that situation, though,
[34:14]is no mozzarella
[34:16]but like a little sprinkling
[34:17]of Parmigiana.
[34:17]Like, I think that'd be nice.
[34:19]Just like the
[34:19]No.
[34:20]Sausages and cheese.
[34:21]That's what my nephew
[34:22]also said here.
[34:23]He was like,
[34:23]could you guys please
[34:24]sprinkle a little Parmigiana
[34:25]on there?
[34:26]That's what I'm talking about, man.
[34:27]Me and your nephew
[34:28]should hang out.
[34:28]I'll tell you when to stop.
[34:29]Can you,
[34:30]you guys,
[34:32]I hate to say this,
[34:33]but you guys are actually
[34:35]the problem right now
[34:36]with America.
[34:36]Russell should have
[34:37]immediately picked up
[34:38]his nephew and spanked him.
[34:39]This is not appropriate
[34:41]to get a pizza without cheese.
[34:42]At some point,
[34:43]an adult needs to step in
[34:44]and say, no,
[34:45]you're just ordering a
[34:46]bread with meat on it.
[34:47]Okay, this is a sandwich.
[34:48]This is an open-faced sandwich.
[34:49]I'm going to argue the same thing
[34:50]about a cheese pizza.
[34:50]It's not the cheese.
[34:52]You need cheese on a pizza.
[34:53]That's like,
[34:54]put some meat on it.
[34:55]I think any of the
[34:56]pizza
[34:59]I would say
[34:59]that pizza
[35:00]is more masculine, Aaron.
[35:02]Yeah.
[35:03]Or Rob said
[35:03]that the pizza
[35:04]no cheese,
[35:05]that the cheese pizza.
[35:06]Just give it to me.
[35:06]Just give me the bread
[35:07]and the sauce.
[35:08]Maybe throw some meat
[35:08]on there if you want.
[35:09]You put way more meat
[35:11]and less cheese.
[35:11]You know what, Russell?
[35:12]Yeah.
[35:12]That is a masculine pizza.
[35:14]That's like a pizza
[35:15]that a man would eat.
[35:15]You're a hundred
[35:16]percent right.
[35:16]Yep.
[35:17]The bandwagon.
[35:17]Wow.
[35:18]Can I ask you, Rob?
[35:20]Is either of you guys
[35:22]getting tripped out
[35:23]by Rob's shirt
[35:23]at the angle of the lines?
[35:25]Yeah.
[35:25]A little bit.
[35:26]You guys are lucky
[35:28]I'm wearing a shirt today.
[35:29]It's fucking freezing
[35:30]in this apartment.
[35:30]I think some kid
[35:31]has a window open.
[35:32]It's so cold here.
[35:33]It's crazy.
[35:34]All right.
[35:36]Let's get it.
[35:36]Oh, we are in Rolling.
[35:37]That was my Rolling going.
[35:38]So that was it for me.
[35:40]I was Rolling going with Rob
[35:41]in his trippy shirt.
[35:42]Listen.
[35:43]As you guys
[35:46]know,
[35:46]tonight was one of my
[35:48]biggest drinking nights
[35:49]of the year.
[35:50]That's why I'm so tired.
[35:51]It was the holiday
[35:52]tree lighting
[35:53]at Roosevelt Island.
[35:55]Okay.
[35:56]Where they light the tree
[35:57]and they bring out Santa
[35:59]and it's freezing
[36:00]and it's me
[36:01]and a bunch of little kids.
[36:02]And once again,
[36:03]I do what I did every year.
[36:04]I drank two drinks too many
[36:07]and I went
[36:08]and I yelled at Santa.
[36:09]Okay.
[36:10]So I now have some tape
[36:11]that I'm going to play
[36:12]of you guys
[36:13]of me at the Christmas
[36:14]tree lighting festival.
[36:15]Okay.
[36:15]It's going to be
[36:16]happy last Santa.
[36:17]Oh God.
[36:18]Yeah,
[36:20]Santa.
[36:21]That girl's staring at you.
[36:24]And you can see
[36:26]Santa's only like
[36:27]10 feet away.
[36:27]This time he came to me.
[36:28]I'm very excited about Santa.
[36:29]Santa,
[36:31]yeah.
[36:31]And then if you go
[36:34]to the next video
[36:35]that's in my camera roll.
[36:36]your daughter,
[36:37]she's concerned about
[36:37]getting you kicked out
[36:38]of the tree lighting.
[36:39]No,
[36:39]that's my friend Nicole.
[36:40]Ah.
[36:41]Okay.
[36:41]She wasn't that concerned.
[36:43]Rob has all his videos
[36:44]and pictures up.
[36:45]There's no one,
[36:46]Santa.
[36:46]Oh my gosh.
[36:47]He's right here.
[36:49]Woo.
[36:50]He's holding up a big
[36:52]Yenny tree
[36:53]like a mere hours ago.
[36:54]Oh yes.
[36:56]So then,
[36:57]I've been-
[36:59]Rob has the top 1%
[37:00]of selfies in his phone.
[37:02]I guarantee it.
[37:02]I love selfies.
[37:05]You should always
[37:06]take pictures.
[37:06]You know what's boring?
[37:07]A picture of the Grand Canyon.
[37:09]I can look it up
[37:09]and lie and say it.
[37:10]You know what's not boring?
[37:11]A picture of me
[37:12]with the Grand Canyon behind me.
[37:13]Yelling at Santa.
[37:14]Yelling at Santa.
[37:15]This is not a picture of me.
[37:15]This is not a picture of me.
[37:16]This is not boring.
[37:16]But,
[37:16]well, first of all,
[37:18]this is a big event for my family.
[37:19]I've been texting about it all day
[37:21]with my kids saying,
[37:21]are you guys excited for Santa?
[37:23]Are you guys excited for Santa?
[37:24]Jenny's saying,
[37:25]it seems like it's very cold out.
[37:26]I don't want to go.
[37:27]Everyone's saying,
[37:27]I'm doing something.
[37:28]I'm busy.
[37:29]And me forcing everybody to go.
[37:30]And then my older daughter
[37:32]did something.
[37:32]Oh no.
[37:33]She announced that
[37:35]she was bringing a boy.
[37:36]Nice.
[37:36]And she wanted me
[37:37]to meet this boy.
[37:38]Is he 6'2"?
[37:39]Wait,
[37:39]this is different
[37:40]than the other boy?
[37:40]The boy is,
[37:42]I believe,
[37:43]taller than me.
[37:43]Okay.
[37:44]Which was,
[37:46]psychically harmful.
[37:46]Except for,
[37:47]when he did come in the apartment.
[37:49]Now,
[37:49]here's the question I had.
[37:50]Do I hit him
[37:53]with the,
[37:54]when I shake his hand,
[37:55]do I hit him with the,
[37:56]hey,
[37:57]I'm Mr.
[37:58]Okay?
[37:58]Or do I hit him with the,
[38:00]I'm Rob.
[38:01]You have to bleep that out.
[38:01]What?
[38:02]shit.
[38:03]Okay,
[38:04]do I hit him with the,
[38:05]I'm Mr.
[38:05]W.
[38:05]Or,
[38:06]I'm Rob.
[38:07]Which one do you do?
[38:08]Rob.
[38:09]You do Rob.
[38:10]You don't big time at Russell?
[38:12]Come on now.
[38:12]I think you go first name
[38:14]and you lure him in as a buddy
[38:15]and then,
[38:16]and then you.
[38:16]Oh,
[38:17]right.
[38:17]So,
[38:18]it turns out that is what I did.
[38:20]Jenny,
[38:20]on the other hand,
[38:21]had a little bit of a different tact.
[38:23]She didn't say doctor.
[38:24]She did not.
[38:25]She's got to be lifting.
[38:26]She was like,
[38:26]I'm doctor.
[38:27]I got,
[38:28]I got a,
[38:29]I got a hundred dollars
[38:30]to say she's lifting
[38:30]when he comes in the house.
[38:32]No,
[38:32]she was sitting,
[38:34]she was sitting on the couch,
[38:35]but the moment he came in,
[38:37]she goes,
[38:38]right now,
[38:39]any number of reps,
[38:41]you and me,
[38:41]let's see who can bench more.
[38:43]You pick the reps.
[38:43]It can be as many reps as possible.
[38:45]We can rub,
[38:46]one rep max.
[38:47]And then she turns
[38:47]and she goes,
[38:48]I don't even need to warm up.
[38:50]And I was like,
[38:51]oh,
[38:51]dang,
[38:51]this was right off the bat.
[38:53]And she kept saying,
[38:54]let's bench,
[38:54]let's bench.
[38:55]And he was like,
[38:55]okay,
[38:56]we're going to see you guys.
[38:56]She lost.
[38:58]He,
[38:58]he was so confused
[38:59]because if you see this woman
[39:01]just yelling at you,
[39:01]how many reps max I'll rep.
[39:03]And he's like,
[39:04]what are you talking?
[39:05]He didn't even know
[39:05]what she was talking about.
[39:06]I had to like explain to her,
[39:08]like Jenny,
[39:08]not everybody is thinking
[39:09]about bench press all the time.
[39:10]Okay.
[39:11]But he was big timed
[39:13]by this girl's mom
[39:14]saying that she was going
[39:15]to bench more than him,
[39:16]which I think she could have.
[39:17]Is bench press the,
[39:18]the standard for assessing
[39:21]a person's strength?
[39:21]I would have thought
[39:22]she might've squatted him,
[39:23]but bench press.
[39:24]No,
[39:24]no,
[39:25]no.
[39:25]It's gotta be the bench.
[39:27]Yeah.
[39:27]To be beaten by a girlfriend's mom
[39:29]on bench press would be
[39:31]the most humiliating lift
[39:32]to lose to.
[39:33]Right.
[39:33]Right.
[39:33]Yeah.
[39:34]I mean,
[39:34]is there one,
[39:35]maybe if she curled
[39:35]more than you.
[39:36]So anyway,
[39:38]you guys are,
[39:39]you guys are trying
[39:40]to inhibit this
[39:42]from going well
[39:42]by doing that though.
[39:43]You're aware.
[39:44]She is.
[39:45]He left and I turned to her
[39:46]and I go,
[39:46]I go,
[39:47]Jen,
[39:47]have you lost your damn mind?
[39:48]I said,
[39:49]what are you doing?
[39:50]Telling him the bench press.
[39:51]I said,
[39:51]we have to at least be normal
[39:52]for a little bit.
[39:53]She doesn't.
[39:54]Jenny likes to cause trouble.
[39:55]Everybody thinks I like
[39:56]to cause trouble.
[39:56]I want to remind you,
[39:57]Jenny's the one
[39:58]who got dressed in her spandex
[39:59]and benched in the middle
[40:00]of one of Amelia's parties.
[40:02]So there was no
[40:03]bench press competition tonight.
[40:04]There was no
[40:05]bench press competition.
[40:06]It was,
[40:06]he was immediately shuttled off
[40:08]and taken back outside.
[40:10]She was too embarrassed.
[40:11]So.
[40:11]What do you think
[40:12]was going on outside then?
[40:14]I did hit him with the rob.
[40:15]So I was kind to him.
[40:17]So we'll see how it goes,
[40:18]but I don't know.
[40:20]It's tough,
[40:21]but that's the tree lighting
[40:24]ceremony story.
[40:24]Did you give him
[40:25]like a handshake
[40:26]or a bro hug
[40:27]or what was I did?
[40:28]I did give him a handshake,
[40:29]but I did do that thing
[40:31]where I put my middle finger
[40:31]in the middle
[40:32]and kind of wiggled it
[40:32]like this too.
[40:33]I actually think,
[40:35]you know,
[40:36]that's the funny,
[40:36]I'd like,
[40:36]I know that the strong,
[40:38]extra strong handshake
[40:39]is like a,
[40:40]that's a thing
[40:41]that we've grown up with,
[40:42]but I think like a big hug
[40:43]where like he can
[40:44]feel how strong
[40:44]your posterior chain is.
[40:46]Wow.
[40:46]I think that's it.
[40:47]I think you know,
[40:47]you give the guy a big hug.
[40:48]Right.
[40:49]If I would have hugged him,
[40:50]Aaron,
[40:50]and then Jenny starts
[40:51]challenging him to bench,
[40:53]it would have been
[40:53]the weirdest.
[40:54]You'd have been totally
[40:56]just,
[40:57]he couldn't do,
[40:57]what could you do
[40:58]for the rest of the night?
[40:59]Yeah, man.
[40:59]He'd be like,
[41:00]okay, well I'm going to,
[41:00]you know,
[41:01]treat this house
[41:02]with respect.
[41:03]I mean,
[41:03]you have to realize
[41:05]that the mom
[41:07]challenging him to a bench
[41:08]is probably like,
[41:11]it decreases the odds
[41:12]he goes out
[41:13]with your daughter by,
[41:14]at least a third.
[41:14]Oh no.
[41:16]No.
[41:16]Increase.
[41:17]At least.
[41:17]Oh no,
[41:18]don't do that.
[41:19]Look at the danger.
[41:19]That would be terrible.
[41:21]He's like,
[41:22]I'm doing it.
[41:23]And it also,
[41:24]it also increases the odds
[41:26]she never brings people
[41:27]to your house again
[41:28]and goes out other places.
[41:29]Wow.
[41:30]Listen,
[41:31]when you come into our house
[41:33]and Jenny's bench pressing
[41:35]and I'm playing video games
[41:36]with my noise cancelling
[41:36]headphones on,
[41:37]why do you want to bring people
[41:39]into that environment
[41:39]to see what's going on?
[41:40]Yeah.
[41:41]He comes in and I'm like,
[41:43]do you know
[41:44]if Matt Stafford
[41:44]threw an interception?
[41:45]I'm playing video games.
[41:46]I'm not even watching the game
[41:47]I gambled on.
[41:48]Rolling going, man.
[41:50]How's it going with you?
[41:51]Can I ask one thing though?
[41:52]So Jenny,
[41:53]Jenny got competitive
[41:54]and wanted to show
[41:56]she's stronger than him.
[41:57]What,
[41:57]what did you do to like
[41:58]show that you were cool?
[41:59]Like,
[41:59]did you talk about your video game
[42:01]or what,
[42:01]what did you do to kind of
[42:03]be the cool dad?
[42:04]The problem is,
[42:06]is that they came in.
[42:07]Remember that video
[42:08]I played earlier
[42:09]with me yelling?
[42:10]They came in about 10 minutes
[42:12]after that video was filmed.
[42:14]Okay.
[42:14]I was totally exhausted.
[42:16]Okay.
[42:17]I was kind of,
[42:18]I was,
[42:19]you know what I was doing?
[42:19]I was eating a giant poke bowl.
[42:21]So immediately I was emasculated.
[42:23]He came in when I was using
[42:24]chopsticks.
[42:25]You were in your refractory period.
[42:25]Yeah.
[42:26]I was in,
[42:27]I was in my refractory period,
[42:28]Aaron.
[42:28]Thank you very much.
[42:29]I had to reload
[42:29]before I started yelling again.
[42:31]Yeah.
[42:31]Okay.
[42:32]Yeah.
[42:32]No,
[42:32]Russell,
[42:32]I didn't do anything.
[42:33]I kind of stared at the ground.
[42:34]It was,
[42:35]I was not good.
[42:36]I didn't talk to him.
[42:36]I should have done a better job.
[42:38]Next time I'm going to focus,
[42:39]I'm going to be ready
[42:40]and I'm going to give him a hug.
[42:42]I think that's a good advice by Aaron.
[42:43]I'm telling you,
[42:43]man,
[42:43]like get in there
[42:44]and just like let him,
[42:45]let him feel your.
[42:46]Or you could do,
[42:47]this is the,
[42:48]what the pro wrestlers always do.
[42:49]They do like the limp handshake.
[42:51]It's to show that like,
[42:52]it'll be easy with you in the ring.
[42:54]It's kind of like a very soft handshake.
[42:56]Maybe you could go with the,
[42:57]the soft handshake route.
[42:59]Maybe that's your move.
[43:00]I had a,
[43:01]I brought a friend over once
[43:03]to another friend's house
[43:04]and he pissed the dad off so bad
[43:07]because he would only shake
[43:08]with his left hand.
[43:10]He would reach out
[43:11]his left hand to shake
[43:12]and it drove the dad fucking nuts.
[43:16]The guy would leave and he'd go,
[43:16]he only shakes with his left hand.
[43:18]What the fuck?
[43:19]And I was like,
[43:19]oh,
[43:20]I didn't even think about that.
[43:20]But that's like the,
[43:21]it's like,
[43:22]you know,
[43:22]it's kind of the equivalent
[43:23]of the Trump handshake
[43:23]where he brings him in real close
[43:25]and like yanks him.
[43:25]I always like that too
[43:27]where you kind of grab him
[43:28]and you're kind of yanking him around
[43:29]a little bit,
[43:30]showing him who a real man is.
[43:31]I used to always joke
[43:32]that I've got a mental edge
[43:33]on someone.
[43:34]If you were a left-handed handshaker,
[43:36]you have a mental edge on everyone.
[43:37]Oh,
[43:38]totally.
[43:39]I'll never forget you.
[43:40]Matt,
[43:40]rolling going on.
[43:41]How's it going with you?
[43:41]Good.
[43:43]Did you hear what the
[43:44]word of the year was
[43:45]from dictionary.com?
[43:46]No,
[43:47]what was it?
[43:47]Word of the year
[43:49]was something called
[43:50]demure,
[43:52]demure.
[43:52]Oh yeah,
[43:53]demure.
[43:53]Demure.
[43:55]Yeah.
[43:55]You know what the definition
[43:56]of demure is?
[43:58]It's like very,
[43:59]it's like very casual,
[44:01]right?
[44:01]Reserved,
[44:03]modest,
[44:03]and shy.
[44:04]Typically used of a woman.
[44:05]So a demure young lady.
[44:07]I can't say that.
[44:08]That's the word.
[44:09]You got it.
[44:09]You're right.
[44:10]That's the word of the year.
[44:11]Why would that be the word
[44:12]of the year?
[44:12]Because there was a TikTok.
[44:15]Yeah.
[44:16]Very.
[44:16]I know this one.
[44:17]I know this one.
[44:18]Yeah.
[44:19]Where they're saying
[44:20]they're being very mindful,
[44:21]very demure.
[44:21]Very mindful,
[44:22]very modest,
[44:23]very demure.
[44:24]But I mix them both
[44:26]because I'm what?
[44:27]Very demure.
[44:27]I'm very cute with.
[44:29]So basically,
[44:30]it just shows people
[44:31]that they played
[44:33]that song clip.
[44:33]Aaron,
[44:34]don't,
[44:34]I can't explain TikToks to you.
[44:36]That's a sound
[44:36]from a different video
[44:37]on a different video.
[44:39]No.
[44:39]Okay.
[44:39]If you're not putting in
[44:41]three to four hours
[44:41]over Thanksgiving like I was,
[44:43]don't even talk to me about TikTok.
[44:44]I was in the mines
[44:45]over this long Thanksgiving break.
[44:47]I was in the TikTok mines
[44:48]every day,
[44:49]clocking in,
[44:50]clocking out
[44:50]five, six hours a day.
[44:51]I know.
[44:52]No days off for you.
[44:53]And all it was,
[44:54]sexy ladies in the office
[44:55]walking toward me.
[44:56]Being demure.
[44:57]So mindful,
[44:59]so demure.
[45:00]Those ladies are very demure.
[45:01]So there was five runners up.
[45:03]One of them really caught my eye,
[45:05]but I thought we'd go
[45:06]through the runners up.
[45:07]Love it.
[45:09]Just to say.
[45:09]So the number two one
[45:11]really caught my ear.
[45:13]Caught my eye?
[45:14]I don't know.
[45:15]Okay.
[45:15]Let's go from number five.
[45:18]Number five word of the year
[45:20]was weird.
[45:21]Oh.
[45:22]That's the year's
[45:23]most surprising word
[45:24]is the short list.
[45:25]Fuck off.
[45:26]Weird.
[45:26]Generally a word.
[45:27]Weird.
[45:27]Such common usage.
[45:29]Yeah, but I don't know.
[45:31]Typically, what does it say?
[45:32]Yeah, I got a text
[45:32]from Tim Walz yesterday
[45:33]just about flew off the handle
[45:35]and I was like,
[45:35]oh, I can just write stop.
[45:37]It's okay.
[45:37]Aaron, it's not
[45:39]really Tim Walz.
[45:39]I'm just going to tell you right now.
[45:40]But they put his picture in there.
[45:41]I was like,
[45:42]I never want to see this guy again.
[45:43]That doesn't mean anything, Aaron.
[45:44]I suppose he and Colin Geertz.
[45:46]That's why weird.
[45:46]Yeah, that's why I got it in there.
[45:47]Well, this is maybe
[45:49]a slight theme
[45:50]because number four
[45:50]is Midwest nice.
[45:51]So I'm guessing
[45:53]it's a word of the year?
[45:54]Wait, Midwest nice?
[45:55]I've never heard
[45:56]of Midwest nice.
[45:57]Oh.
[45:57]That's a word?
[45:59]It's Minnesota nice.
[45:59]In Minnesota, it's so nice.
[46:01]Midwest nice.
[46:02]You know what?
[46:02]Get the fuck out of here.
[46:04]It's a fucking bullshit.
[46:04]Midwest trying to take our shit.
[46:06]Oh, yeah.
[46:07]Minnesotans.
[46:07]Oh, so nice.
[46:08]Fuck off.
[46:09]They're not fucking nice.
[46:11]They're not at all.
[46:12]Ohio's in the Midwest.
[46:13]Fuck off.
[46:14]Get the fuck out of here
[46:15]with that shit.
[46:16]It's Minnesota nice.
[46:17]We get it.
[46:17]The rest of these fucking
[46:19]Midwest state fuckers.
[46:20]Number three.
[46:20]Number three is extreme weather.
[46:22]That's the number three
[46:23]word of the year.
[46:24]These are multiple words.
[46:25]That is multiple.
[46:26]It's just a roll of stone, guys.
[46:30]I'm going to go to number one
[46:32]and we're going to skip over
[46:33]number two.
[46:34]But number one is brain rot,
[46:35]which is technically one word.
[46:37]Yes.
[46:37]But brain rot.
[46:37]Brain rot.
[46:37]That's a good one.
[46:38]There is so much brain rot
[46:40]at my school this year.
[46:40]It's crazy.
[46:41]Okay.
[46:42]Number two.
[46:43]Number two.
[46:44]Number nine.
[46:46]Is the word.
[46:48]The number two on the list
[46:50]is brat.
[46:50]Oh.
[46:51]Brat.
[46:51]Robbie.
[46:52]Robbie.
[46:53]Robbie.
[46:55]Robbie.
[46:55]That's me playing
[46:56]all these sounds, Robbie.
[46:57]The new usage of brat
[47:00]redefines the word,
[47:01]using it to refer to someone
[47:02]who is confidently rebellious,
[47:04]unapologetically old,
[47:06]and playfully
[47:06]and unapologetically
[47:07]defiant.
[47:08]God damn, is that hot.
[47:09]Oh.
[47:09]I mean, just somebody
[47:11]who is not going to do
[47:13]what you tell them.
[47:13]Oh, my God.
[47:14]Okay.
[47:16]Wait a minute.
[47:16]I'm not going to bet your wife
[47:18]in your apartment, Robbie.
[47:19]I think every female
[47:21]in my life is a brat.
[47:22]I don't have a female in my life
[47:23]that will listen to a thing I say.
[47:25]Who did this list?
[47:25]This is dictionary.com.
[47:28]Dictionary.com.
[47:29]All right.
[47:29]They clearly do not know
[47:30]what a word is.
[47:30]They're going by the search
[47:34]of the word on their website.
[47:36]Allegedly.
[47:37]So we, you know,
[47:38]Russell is brat.
[47:39]How many times has Brad show up
[47:41]for Beck did it better in our SEO?
[47:42]It's got to be in there a ton.
[47:43]Russell, we're going to make bank
[47:45]with this new words.
[47:46]If they listen.
[47:48]If one of the words of the year
[47:50]is Locktober, we're set.
[47:52]We've got to be a top three
[47:54]Locktober podcast.
[47:55]It could be for sure.
[47:57]What if it's Drew Locktober?
[47:58]Drew Locktober.
[47:59]Yes.
[48:00]Does he still have a starting
[48:01]job anywhere?
[48:02]Damn.
[48:02]I don't think so.
[48:05]That's crazy.
[48:07]What if, what if, what if,
[48:09]how about this?
[48:09]What if I put a cock cage on
[48:13]a mythical creature who lives
[48:14]in Scotland?
[48:14]It's Locknestober.
[48:16]Wait, Lockcock, Cocklock,
[48:19]Nestober.
[48:21]Have you guys heard of that
[48:22]new advanced NBA stat?
[48:23]They call them stocks.
[48:24]It's steals plus Blockstober.
[48:26]I love a new stat.
[48:30]Like baseball.
[48:31]I don't know what war is.
[48:32]I have no idea what war means
[48:34]in baseball, but every time
[48:35]they're talking about it,
[48:35]every time they're talking
[48:36]about wars, I'm like,
[48:37]fuck yeah, I get it, man.
[48:39]What do you think our word?
[48:40]What's it?
[48:41]What's our individual war
[48:42]on this podcast?
[48:42]If you replace it,
[48:44]we are under replacement level.
[48:45]All of us.
[48:46]Uh, the B.U.
[48:48]And I guess, yeah,
[48:49]you're right.
[48:50]We're just Ted Williams of it.
[48:51]The rest of us are like,
[48:52]that's true.
[48:53]Where we got to go now.
[48:55]Russell rolling, going,
[48:56]how's it going with you?
[48:56]Rolling, going guys.
[48:57]I thought I would share.
[48:58]I know.
[48:58]I think there was a,
[48:59]maybe something on the text chain.
[49:01]I got my Spotify rap this week.
[49:03]I thought I could share some
[49:04]of my Spotify rap things with you.
[49:06]I want to hear about it.
[49:08]Just a heads up.
[49:08]I'm total minutes.
[49:09]Listen, 46,437.
[49:12]Oh, wow.
[49:13]Really?
[49:14]Tell what's on your rap, Russell.
[49:15]I got to hear this.
[49:16]Well, you thought that was,
[49:17]this was crazy.
[49:18]My number one,
[49:19]I'll go my top five songs
[49:21]for the year.
[49:22]Okay.
[49:22]I'll go five to one.
[49:24]Okay.
[49:24]Five to one.
[49:24]Number five is exile
[49:26]featuring Boney Bear
[49:27]by Taylor Swift.
[49:28]Okay.
[49:29]Really?
[49:30]Yep.
[49:30]We did that one.
[49:31]I still don't get Boney Bear.
[49:33]We did that one on the list.
[49:34]It was on a,
[49:35]what album is that one,
[49:36]Aaron?
[49:36]Boney Bear?
[49:39]Yes, we did.
[49:40]Taylor Swift.
[49:41]That's
[49:42]Roy's favorite album.
[49:44]Hopefully.
[49:44]Yeah, yeah.
[49:45]Wow.
[49:49]I still don't get Boney Bear.
[49:50]You guys like Boney Bear?
[49:51]I love this song,
[49:53]but I don't.
[49:53]I like his,
[49:54]I like the track he did
[49:55]with Chief Keef.
[49:56]Kanye,
[49:58]which we're unfortunately
[49:59]going to have to listen to
[50:00]on Yeezus,
[50:00]but it's a good track.
[50:01]Somehow this one's on there
[50:04]which makes me think
[50:04]this system isn't right
[50:06]or I must,
[50:06]I must have put something
[50:07]on repeat
[50:07]and didn't remember it.
[50:09]It's a choir song
[50:11]called Barbara Allen
[50:11]by the University
[50:12]of Michigan Men's Choir,
[50:14]which I don't remember
[50:15]listening to at all.
[50:15]Nope.
[50:17]What?
[50:18]So how does it,
[50:19]I don't know.
[50:20]Let's hear it though.
[50:21]We got to hear it.
[50:22]Russell,
[50:27]what the fuck is going on?
[50:29]Pulling up for number three.
[50:30]Are you worried?
[50:32]We're going to get through this.
[50:33]Aren't you worried
[50:34]that this is on your list?
[50:35]Like somebody's breaking it down?
[50:36]You're going into your house
[50:37]and like,
[50:37]I don't know.
[50:38]This is scary.
[50:39]If you woke up
[50:40]and went downstairs,
[50:40]this is playing.
[50:41]choir songs during the year.
[50:43]So I could have played it.
[50:44]I don't know what happened,
[50:45]but it's on the list.
[50:46]Number three,
[50:47]which I definitely know
[50:49]this one.
[50:50]And I,
[50:51]this is my favorite song
[50:52]of the year.
[50:52]Number three,
[50:53]it's Beastie Boys
[50:55]Rhyming and Stealing.
[50:56]Okay.
[50:57]Rhyming and Stealing.
[50:58]This is what I,
[50:59]I listen to this every day
[51:01]in the car
[51:01]multiple times.
[51:03]Every day?
[51:03]Not every day,
[51:04]but every day
[51:05]for about a week,
[51:05]a couple weeks.
[51:06]This is the Zeppelin sample.
[51:07]Yes.
[51:08]This is a good one,
[51:12]Russell.
[51:12]I like this.
[51:14]Matt,
[51:20]this is the number one
[51:21]Beastie Boys song.
[51:22]Number one.
[51:23]It's,
[51:25]it's a top 10.
[51:26]And you guys thought
[51:28]it was crazy.
[51:28]I could see why
[51:28]it would be on here.
[51:29]Number two on my list.
[51:31]One Shining Moment
[51:33]by Darren,
[51:34]David Barrett
[51:35]and Luther Vandross.
[51:36]One Shining Moment.
[51:37]This is so,
[51:39]this is so crazy to me.
[51:42]There's a reason
[51:42]the top two are on the list.
[51:44]I'll have to tell you guys
[51:44]those later, but.
[51:45]So I bet I listened to this
[51:48]200 times this year,
[51:49]at least.
[51:50]Russell, are you okay?
[51:52]I've,
[51:52]you might not think so
[51:54]after this last one.
[51:55]Oh, was this,
[51:56]was this work related?
[51:57]Yes.
[51:57]Is that why
[51:57]I didn't watch Shining Moment?
[51:58]Yeah, that's all he was.
[51:59]Yeah.
[51:59]And then the number one.
[52:01]I just picture Russell
[52:02]sitting in his car
[52:03]when he pulls into work,
[52:04]play this song,
[52:05]tears.
[52:06]Screaming down his eyes.
[52:07]The song is you're going in
[52:08]to start your day.
[52:09]Like, what more do you want?
[52:10]I couldn't do it.
[52:12]Emotionally, I couldn't do it.
[52:14]But I get it.
[52:16]I get it.
[52:16]Just one Shining Moment
[52:18]over and over.
[52:19]My number one
[52:21]top song,
[52:22]which we discussed
[52:23]this guy a few weeks ago,
[52:24]is by Danny Elfman.
[52:25]It's the Batman theme.
[52:26]Danny Elfman.
[52:27]Danny Elfman.
[52:28]Danny Elfman back again.
[52:29]Batman theme.
[52:31]What are you talking about, Russell?
[52:32]What is going on?
[52:34]Right here.
[52:35]Yeah.
[52:36]Oh, yeah.
[52:37]This is badass.
[52:38]Yeah, you're right.
[52:39]Guys, once again,
[52:41]this proves
[52:42]Russell is getting ass.
[52:45]I love to hear it.
[52:46]Russell is having sex
[52:48]with a Batman theme.
[52:49]This is so great.
[52:50]So it's beyond the top songs.
[52:52]Spotify rap gives you
[52:53]a bunch of other things.
[52:54]And so they give you
[52:55]an evolution of music
[52:56]where they tell you,
[52:57]here's what you were in February,
[52:58]June, July.
[52:59]So here's what they told me
[53:01]I was listening to.
[53:01]And they were like,
[53:03]we've never seen
[53:04]a Spotify rap like this.
[53:05]We want to study you for science.
[53:06]Yeah, Spotify's data science team
[53:07]is good.
[53:08]And they're just counting things.
[53:09]They're just counting.
[53:10]Counting matters.
[53:11]How many listeners do we have?
[53:14]Don't count stuff like that.
[53:16]That doesn't count.
[53:18]Actually, Rob,
[53:19]we might have to share
[53:19]that Spotify rap
[53:20]because I think we really do know
[53:22]how many people listen after that.
[53:23]Next.
[53:25]So this is what I was listening to
[53:26]in February.
[53:27]They say I was into
[53:28]Sweater Weather Strut Pop
[53:31]featuring Taylor Swift.
[53:32]Sweater Weather Strut Pop.
[53:34]Taylor Swift,
[53:35]John C.
[53:36]And Michael Jackson.
[53:37]Really?
[53:39]Yes.
[53:39]Sweater Weather Strut Pop.
[53:41]Wow.
[53:41]And then in June,
[53:43]I moved into my
[53:44]psychedelic beatless
[53:45]classic rock season.
[53:46]Okay.
[53:47]All right.
[53:47]And then in August,
[53:49]this was obviously
[53:51]when I moved into
[53:51]the Danny Elfman time frame.
[53:53]It was theatrical
[53:54]Hollywood soundtracks.
[53:55]Oh.
[53:56]So something about August,
[53:58]something about the middle
[53:58]of summer,
[53:59]Russ is like,
[53:59]oh, that's hot out.
[54:01]Better put on this
[54:01]fucking Batman theme.
[54:02]I also listened to Danny.
[54:04]So Danny Elfman,
[54:05]Hans Zimmer,
[54:06]and John Williams.
[54:07]And I think we talked
[54:07]about John Williams
[54:08]back in August.
[54:09]John Williams was awesome.
[54:10]That was part of it, too.
[54:11]My number one artist
[54:12]of the year,
[54:13]Danny Elfman,
[54:14]tattoos and all.
[54:15]Wow.
[54:16]Look at this shit.
[54:16]There's my picture
[54:17]of my Spotify rap there.
[54:19]He's right there.
[54:20]He's right there.
[54:22]Danny Elfman.
[54:23]Danny Elfman is like,
[54:25]if Carrot Top
[54:27]made a few different choices.
[54:29]Me and Danny Elfman.
[54:30]He's like if Carrot Top
[54:31]and Danzig had a kid.
[54:32]Like, he's ripped.
[54:33]Yes, exactly.
[54:33]That's exactly what it looks like.
[54:35]He's got weird red hair.
[54:36]Danny Elfman is once again
[54:37]a person whose penis
[54:38]looks just like his body.
[54:39]Oh.
[54:39]It says,
[54:41]I was a top 1% fan.
[54:43]I spent 301 minutes
[54:45]with Danny Elfman this year.
[54:46]301 minutes.
[54:48]That's all it takes?
[54:49]That doesn't seem like that long
[54:51]to be the 1%er fan
[54:52]of Danny Elfman.
[54:53]So ultimately,
[54:54]my top five artists,
[54:55]Danny Elfman won,
[54:56]The Beatles 2,
[54:57]Taylor Swift 3,
[54:59]David Barrett
[55:00]from One Shining Woman 4,
[55:01]and Beyonce number 5.
[55:03]But Rob,
[55:04]I was going to ask.
[55:04]We talked about my spot.
[55:05]I think you sent this out
[55:08]or I believe you sent this out
[55:10]and isn't it essentially
[55:12]we have like 37 listeners
[55:13]that listen to us all the time
[55:15]and no one else?
[55:16]What was the stat?
[55:17]It was,
[55:18]let's see what it was
[55:19]because I've got our Spotify rap
[55:20]for Beck Did It Better
[55:21]creator right here.
[55:23]Okay, so we can watch it.
[55:25]It was,
[55:26]but this is just Spotify.
[55:27]And actually it showed
[55:29]that it showed
[55:31]that we did have
[55:32]a little bit of growth this year.
[55:33]It's kind of exciting,
[55:34]kind of exciting time.
[55:35]Just a little bit.
[55:35]Just a little growth.
[55:36]Just a little growth.
[55:37]It does get bigger
[55:38]as you get older.
[55:39]Just a little bit.
[55:39]Okay, and then it gets smaller
[55:40]and then it gets lower.
[55:41]We gained 16%
[55:43]in our listeners.
[55:44]Pretty good.
[55:45]Hey, so that's like
[55:47]one out of eight.
[55:47]That's 1,500
[55:49]for most years.
[55:49]We gained 1.6 million then.
[55:51]Okay, 31% listeners,
[55:54]15% followers we gained.
[55:56]5 million.
[55:56]Now, I don't know
[55:57]what a follower is,
[55:58]but 75% of our listeners
[56:01]are new fans this year
[56:03]for us on Spotify.
[56:04]So that's kind of fun.
[56:05]That's a million and a half.
[56:05]And the fans have
[56:07]a clear favorite.
[56:08]Which episode was it, Aaron?
[56:09]Of course, it was
[56:12]Bob Dylan bringing it all home.
[56:14]Who remembers that?
[56:17]Russell, can you look up
[56:20]bringing it all home
[56:21]and see what classic bits
[56:22]we did on that episode
[56:23]to make it our favorite episode
[56:24]of the year?
[56:25]Because we got to just do that
[56:26]over and over.
[56:26]We're bombing today.
[56:27]We got to go.
[56:28]Let's just do bits
[56:29]we did that day.
[56:30]This is what it says from our,
[56:32]this is truly what it says
[56:33]directly from Spotify.
[56:35]Yeah.
[56:35]Yeah.
[56:36]The album title
[56:37]is missing a word.
[56:38]It's bringing it all,
[56:39]it's bringing it all back home.
[56:41]Did we upload
[56:42]the wrong album title?
[56:43]Listen, our SEO is not good.
[56:46]We got a problem.
[56:47]That sucks
[56:49]because I'm actually very careful.
[56:50]I always check to see
[56:51]how things are spelled.
[56:51]Okay, I'm sorry.
[56:52]Damn it.
[56:52]Ugh.
[56:54]But you can't change it now, right?
[56:55]Because that'll mess up
[56:56]all the,
[56:56]it's going to screw up everything.
[56:57]That episode was streamed 419%.
[57:00]So obviously,
[57:01]there's some other dummies out there
[57:02]who think the title,
[57:03]the album title is also called it.
[57:05]That's what they're searching.
[57:06]Ever wonder who your audience is?
[57:08]No, I know all the guys.
[57:09]I'm on a text chain with them as well.
[57:11]Well, listen to this.
[57:13]Listeners by age, Russell,
[57:14]you'll like this.
[57:15]Our listeners,
[57:16]18 to 24,
[57:17]3%.
[57:18]3% of our listeners.
[57:20]Where's the 9 to 18 range?
[57:22]9 to 17 range?
[57:24]We've got at least two.
[57:25]A third of our listeners
[57:26]are 55 plus.
[57:27]So we have just tricked
[57:29]a bunch of old people
[57:30]into listening to this show
[57:31]on Spotify.
[57:32]Well, we just lost one,
[57:33]but we'll get to the rest.
[57:35]Two, actually.
[57:37]We lost two.
[57:37]Great job, Rob.
[57:39]Well, listen,
[57:40]I've been going to bring that up.
[57:41]I've been going and downloading
[57:43]on my mom's phone.
[57:44]She doesn't know how to use Spotify.
[57:45]So that counts for one.
[57:46]I'm always getting my family members
[57:48]phones to download this podcast.
[57:49]There we go.
[57:52]Listeners ages 25 to 29
[57:54]grew by 73%.
[57:55]I mean, our key demographic.
[57:57]Yeah, exactly.
[57:58]We travel the globe.
[57:59]We were played in 26 countries.
[58:01]United States was our top country.
[58:03]So obviously,
[58:05]very good.
[58:06]Bob Dylan.
[58:07]America first kind of people.
[58:08]Yeah.
[58:09]Bob Dylan being our top episode
[58:11]is absolutely mind blowing.
[58:12]Russell, did you find anything on that?
[58:13]Do we have anything?
[58:14]Are we sure we did that episode?
[58:15]Bob, you got a new log into Slice.
[58:17]Oh, I'm not logging into Slice.
[58:20]That pizza place is not on there anymore.
[58:22]You got a new one.
[58:23]No, I'm not.
[58:24]I'm not getting fished again.
[58:26]I'm not getting fished by me.
[58:27]The only fishing my pizza place
[58:28]should be doing is some anchovies.
[58:30]Rob, what episode was that?
[58:31]165?
[58:32]181?
[58:34]Russell's not sure we did that.
[58:35]I don't think we did it.
[58:37]Go look at Spotify.
[58:38]We did it.
[58:39]Beck did it better.
[58:41]Bob Dylan.
[58:43]Bringing it on home.
[58:46]Bringing it all back home.
[58:48]Back home.
[58:49]Whatever.
[58:50]Bringing it all back home.
[58:52]Bringing it all home.
[58:53]Here we go, folks.
[58:54]Okay, here's the description of it.
[58:56]Folks, I'm in a work meeting.
[58:58]I can't write anything funny here.
[58:59]It's Bob Dylan.
[59:00]We talk about Moby Dick.
[59:01]What more do you want?
[59:02]I was going to say,
[59:04]I had no comments on that.
[59:05]That must have been a late Sunday.
[59:07]You know what?
[59:08]We also have no comments.
[59:09]You know what this is, Russell.
[59:10]It's Rob talking.
[59:11]This is, no.
[59:13]You know what the parody song is.
[59:15]That's why this is the best play.
[59:16]Oh, it's the Chupacabra.
[59:18]So this is all just John from Edina
[59:20]listening over and over again.
[59:21]This is John from Edina.
[59:21]This is John from Edina
[59:22]listening over and over.
[59:23]Let's hear this.
[59:25]Oh, yeah.
[59:25]Yeah, Russell's in the basement
[59:27]jacking off the cryptids.
[59:29]Block that monster.
[59:30]Gives him a boner.
[59:31]Chupacabra makes him whack off.
[59:33]Back off.
[59:34]He grows big foot.
[59:35]Okay, I get it.
[59:37]Russell admits he jacks off.
[59:38]I just love Russell as soon as it's over.
[59:40]Makes him want to blast again.
[59:42]Then he pulls down his pants
[59:44]looking at some mermaids.
[59:45]A woman with a body of a fish
[59:47]will make a Russell spring.
[59:48]He wants to fuck the Jersey Devil.
[59:49]At least it's country for a roll.
[59:51]Oh, yeah, it's country for a roll.
[59:53]When you want to hear him out
[59:54]the rain is down.
[59:55]That's also what Russell,
[59:56]Russell, I remember,
[59:57]I can still picture him.
[59:58]He's looking down like he is
[59:59]and he goes,
[60:00]oh, what the fuck?
[60:01]I might have to check
[60:03]the Upstairs Roommate Spotify rap
[60:05]and see if I can get
[60:05]and see what she's been downloading
[60:06]this year.
[60:07]When he rhymes whack off
[60:09]with jack off.
[60:10]I mean, it's like,
[60:11]why didn't we just quit
[60:12]the podcast right there?
[60:13]Oh, we should have.
[60:14]That's one of the few songs
[60:16]where we got done
[60:17]and we're like,
[60:17]okay, let's play that again.
[60:18]It was three times
[60:19]in an episode, I remember.
[60:20]Oh, God, that was so funny.
[60:22]That was so funny
[60:23]because I forgot to end it
[60:24]with skunk ape oral.
[60:25]Probably one of the only songs
[60:28]that have that lyric in it,
[60:29]I got to say.
[60:29]All right.
[60:31]Are we done?
[60:32]Should we get into the album here?
[60:33]Oh, yeah, let's talk about music.
[60:35]All right.
[60:35]We got to move this thing along.
[60:37]Hey, Rob, Rob,
[60:38]I don't mean to make you nervous.
[60:39]I think we're on chart
[60:41]for a top five episode.
[60:42]Wow.
[60:45]I can't wait.
[60:46]We'll check next year's
[60:48]Spotify rap to see.
[60:49]Crazy, sexy, cool.
[60:51]Okay, this is TLC's second album.
[60:54]All right.
[60:55]And this album,
[60:56]they actually had some trouble
[60:57]recording it because
[60:58]for a majority of the album,
[60:59]Left Eye was basically,
[61:00]so we got, who do we got?
[61:01]We got T-Boz.
[61:02]We got Left Eye Lopez.
[61:05]And we got the other one.
[61:06]Who's the other one?
[61:07]Left Eye.
[61:08]Chili, she's Usher's baby mama, right?
[61:10]Chili, okay.
[61:11]Of course, is Raymond's baby mama.
[61:13]Okay, Raymond Usher.
[61:14]All right.
[61:15]You still...
[61:17]What?
[61:17]Is Raymond his last name?
[61:19]No, it's his middle name.
[61:21]His name's Usher Raymond, isn't it?
[61:23]Usher Raymond?
[61:25]Is it?
[61:26]What's his last name?
[61:27]I don't know.
[61:28]Oh.
[61:29]Well, that's not very helpful.
[61:31]Well, he goes by Usher.
[61:33]His first name is Usher,
[61:34]and then sometimes he also gets to say Raymond.
[61:35]Two of the coolest names.
[61:36]Yeah, I think so.
[61:37]Oh, my God.
[61:38]That's so cool.
[61:39]He is Usher Raymond IV.
[61:42]He's the fourth?
[61:43]No wonder he's pulling what he's pulling.
[61:47]He comes from a whole line of Usher.
[61:49]Hey, Usher Raymond, how you doing?
[61:51]Oh, my dad.
[61:52]Hey, my dad's Mr. Raymond.
[61:55]You can call me Usher.
[61:56]The fourth.
[61:57]Did he have kids with Chili,
[62:00]or was Chili the subject of confessions?
[62:02]I can't remember how that worked out.
[62:04]Wow.
[62:05]Matt, you work on some research.
[62:06]Well, Rob.
[62:07]Rob, can I ask?
[62:08]Your dad has the same name,
[62:10]and I've never heard you go by Junior
[62:12]or the second or anything.
[62:14]Did that ever pick up or not?
[62:16]We have different middle names.
[62:17]Oh.
[62:18]So we...
[62:19]That doesn't matter.
[62:19]I am not technically a junior.
[62:21]Yeah, and then like three years ago,
[62:22]somebody goes,
[62:22]it doesn't matter.
[62:23]You can just say you're a junior,
[62:24]and I was like, fuck.
[62:25]I could have been Rob Jr.
[62:27]I could have put a fun little thing
[62:28]instead of getting all my mail
[62:30]to Dr. Roberto Esquire in college like I did.
[62:33]Rob, you're going to have to bleep that out again, too.
[62:34]Damn it.
[62:35]No, he said Roberto.
[62:37]It's fine.
[62:38]Oh, yeah, that's true.
[62:39]Nobody will know.
[62:39]It's his alias.
[62:40]Who cares anymore?
[62:42]36 people listening on Spotify.
[62:44]Oh, hell no one's listening.
[62:46]So Left Eye, for a lot of this album,
[62:49]was actually in rehab.
[62:50]She was struggling with alcoholism,
[62:51]and of course,
[62:52]her famous relationship with Andre Rison,
[62:54]where she burned his house down
[62:56]trying to set his shoes on fire.
[62:57]There's a bad moon, Rison.
[62:58]Yeah, well, and now I got to say,
[63:00]not to bring the podcast down,
[63:01]but if you look to see
[63:02]what was happening in that relationship now,
[63:04]like if that happened now,
[63:05]she caught so much heat for that.
[63:07]First, it was like,
[63:08]oh, she's crazy.
[63:09]Then it turns out Andre Rison
[63:10]was a total piece of shit.
[63:11]Yeah, I don't think he was treating her well, right?
[63:13]Yeah.
[63:13]Can I read this about Usher and Chili quick?
[63:16]Please.
[63:17]Usher, Raymond.
[63:18]Raymond, Usher, we're not sure.
[63:21]In 2001, Usher began dating TLC member Chili Thomas,
[63:24]and the relationship lasted for three years.
[63:26]In 2003, Usher started working on the album
[63:30]that would become Confessions,
[63:31]so his album,
[63:32]which contained songs inspired by
[63:34]the personal lives of Usher,
[63:35]and his collaborators.
[63:36]The songs about infidelity and pregnant mistresses
[63:40]were not inspired by Usher's private life,
[63:42]but by Dupree's own personal challenges at the time.
[63:46]Dupree deliberately intended to create
[63:48]an air of mystery about Usher
[63:51]and arouse fans' curiosity
[63:53]about how much of the infidelity story
[63:55]was Usher's own confession.
[63:56]Whoa!
[63:57]The unintended results of this
[64:00]was to arouse Thomas' suspicion about Usher
[64:05]they broke up in December of 2004.
[64:07]Wow!
[64:08]So, that's on the internet,
[64:10]and they can't put anything on the internet,
[64:11]it's not true,
[64:12]but that's cited Wikipedia stuff.
[64:16]So, Jermaine Dupree was trying to get,
[64:19]or maybe he just took the blame for it?
[64:22]I don't know,
[64:23]but somehow all that stuff broke him up.
[64:25]I wouldn't feel for it, too.
[64:27]He's a producer on this album.
[64:29]Oh, yeah, he was producing everything at that time.
[64:31]Yeah, that's crazy that he was like,
[64:33]Hey, you know what?
[64:35]Or Babyface, it was him.
[64:36]I love Cheating on My Wife,
[64:38]but we should make an album
[64:39]where you talk about cheating on your wife.
[64:41]Like, it's so crazy.
[64:42]Everybody's just like,
[64:43]we should sing about cheating on our wife.
[64:44]It's going to be really fun.
[64:45]Can you imagine Confession comes out
[64:48]and you're married to Usher
[64:49]and it's a whole album about him cheating
[64:51]and then he's like,
[64:52]no, no, no, it's not me.
[64:53]It was the guy in charge of the recording cheating.
[64:56]You'd be like, well, that doesn't,
[64:57]that can't possibly be true.
[64:58]It'd be like if Russell was the one squatting ladies.
[65:00]I need to put those plates behind my heels.
[65:04]I'll just say that right now.
[65:05]You guys were talking about Jermaine Dupri.
[65:08]There's a ton of like famous producers,
[65:10]backup singers all over this album
[65:12]that I would have never known
[65:13]until I pulled up Rob's research website for this.
[65:17]Oh, absolutely.
[65:19]Wikipedia actually was full up on this album.
[65:22]We've got, listen to this, Babyface,
[65:24]Jermaine Dupri, Aaron's favorite, Diddy.
[65:27]Diddy's on that voicemail before the poop joke.
[65:28]Is that the sexy interlude?
[65:29]Is that the bathroom one?
[65:31]There's like a skit where Diddy's on the phone
[65:33]and then she's like,
[65:33]give me some tissues so I can wet my ass.
[65:35]The bathroom one is a bottom three song
[65:38]we've ever heard on any of the albums.
[65:40]It's almost disqualifying for the whole album.
[65:43]I agree.
[65:43]Listen, if you guys don't want me at my creep,
[65:47]you don't deserve me at my bathroom skit
[65:49]on the same album.
[65:50]That's true.
[65:51]That's hard.
[65:51]Yeah, that's a hard bargain.
[65:52]You gotta hand it to them.
[65:53]And basically, this is a super sexual romantic album
[65:57]compared to the first album, which was mostly rap.
[65:59]It peaks at number three
[66:01]and it's on the Billboard 200 for three years.
[66:03]I did not realize what a,
[66:05]I hate to say this,
[66:05]I use the word again,
[66:06]juggernaut this album is.
[66:07]This is the best selling album ever
[66:10]by any girl group, okay?
[66:12]All four singles get up to the top five
[66:15]with two of them getting up to number one.
[66:17]It gets nominated for six Grammys,
[66:19]loses record of the year to Kiss by a Rose.
[66:22]Okay, just to let you know what 1994 was like.
[66:25]Alanis Morissette, by the way,
[66:27]Jagged Little Pill also coming out this year.
[66:28]It's, and she wins.
[66:32]Oh, and then she also loses best pop performance
[66:34]by a duo or group of women
[66:35]with vocals to Let It Cry by Hootie and the Blowfish.
[66:38]Guys, what a year for music, okay?
[66:42]Matt's talked about 94 multiple, multiple times
[66:45]and every time it gets better and better.
[66:46]I was wondering when I was thinking about,
[66:48]when I saw 94, I was thinking about this.
[66:50]Are people that are like four years younger than us
[66:53]crazy about like 1998?
[66:55]Is 94 really that good?
[66:57]Or is it just that was the year for us as like you,
[67:00]your formative music years when you're 13, 14?
[67:03]I think 1994 was the year for us.
[67:05]I think 1994 was that good.
[67:06]I think it's-
[67:07]Okay, like Dookie by Green Day.
[67:09]That's their kickoff album, right?
[67:11]Weezer, the Blue Album.
[67:12]That's their seminal album.
[67:14]Ill Communication, Beastie Boys.
[67:17]Downward Spire, Nine Inch Nails.
[67:19]Grace by Jeff Buckley.
[67:20]Vitology.
[67:21]Wow.
[67:21]Illmatic by Nas.
[67:22]Wow.
[67:23]Ready to Die, the Notorious B.I.G.
[67:26]No Need to Argue by the Cranberries.
[67:28]Monster by R.E.M.
[67:29]Crazy, Sexy, Cool.
[67:30]We're doing that today.
[67:31]Southern Playalistic, Cadillac.
[67:34]Oof.
[67:34]Funky Music.
[67:35]Funky by Outkast.
[67:36]Smash by The Offspring.
[67:37]My Life by Mary J. Blige.
[67:40]I'm trying to skip over some of these
[67:42]and just go with the big ones.
[67:43]You know, but it's unbelievable.
[67:46]It's unbelievable year of music.
[67:48]Did I say Vitology by Pearl Jam?
[67:50]You did.
[67:50]Definitely, maybe.
[67:51]The one we did last week, Oasis.
[67:53]Super Unknown by Soundgarden.
[67:54]Wow.
[67:55]Look at this, though.
[67:56]1998, Titanic soundtrack.
[67:58]That's almost-
[67:59]That's like the first 10 weeks.
[68:01]And then It's Hot, It's Dark, and Hell is Hot
[68:03]by DMX pops up.
[68:04]So-
[68:05]Things were going crazy in 1998, for sure.
[68:07]Hello, Nasty by the Beastie Boys.
[68:09]That was awesome.
[68:10]Listen to this.
[68:11]To promote this album,
[68:14]listen to this concert,
[68:15]this tour they did.
[68:16]You could go see TLC
[68:18]with Boyz II Men,
[68:20]Montel Jordan,
[68:21]and Mary J. Blige.
[68:23]And they were joined at some shows
[68:25]with Blackstreet and Monica.
[68:27]I saw the Blackstreet one.
[68:28]That is a murderer's row of
[68:30]hip-hop and R&B acts from the 90s, right?
[68:33]Although Blackstreet would come out
[68:35]and be like,
[68:35]we're going to perform three songs.
[68:36]I'd be like, it's too, too many.
[68:38]I've seen them, I believe, at half-time of a Wolves game.
[68:41]Did they play-
[68:43]I think there's two.
[68:46]There's one beyond
[68:47]the main song everyone knows.
[68:49]There's two that I-
[68:50]What's the other Blackstreet song?
[68:51]I don't know. You've got to look it up.
[68:53]It's Don't Leave Me, Girl.
[68:56]It's got the same sample
[69:01]from the Tupac song.
[69:02]Wow.
[69:03]It's like I'm at the concert.
[69:05]Let's get into TLC.
[69:07]Rob, you would have known that
[69:08]if you were on the side text chain
[69:10]where Aaron and I talk about
[69:11]90s rap samples.
[69:12]Oh, okay.
[69:13]Yeah.
[69:14]Boy, I really want to get into that one.
[69:16]You can bet on which sample
[69:16]is really a sample.
[69:17]Hot as hell lately, Rob.
[69:20]We've been winning big bucks.
[69:22]On a streak.
[69:22]This is Introlude.
[69:24]So there's a bunch of skits,
[69:26]basically, in the middle of this album.
[69:28]This one's featuring Phife Dawg.
[69:30]Wow.
[69:31]But I'm going to skip the Interludes.
[69:33]We start right away.
[69:35]They're first,
[69:35]first single, Grammy Award.
[69:36]Best R&B performance.
[69:38]They win a Grammy for this song.
[69:40]Best performance by
[69:41]Silk Pajamas in a video.
[69:42]You said we're going to watch
[69:43]the video.
[69:43]Oh, my God.
[69:44]Yeah, let's watch the video.
[69:45]This video breakdown.
[69:47]The song, it's a video.
[69:49]You know what, Russell?
[69:50]Goddamn, Russell, you're right.
[69:51]It's been a while.
[69:52]It's been a minute.
[69:52]We're totally, we got to do.
[69:54]Get out our Alan Jackson
[69:56]cowboy hats and our floaties.
[69:59]Where is my video breakdown song?
[70:01]Maybe I don't have,
[70:02]that might be on my dad's computer.
[70:04]Oh, that's a good one.
[70:05]It's very strange.
[70:06]I don't have video breakdown.
[70:07]Oh, well, I'll just play this.
[70:08]We'll check what else you left on there.
[70:09]Your dad's computer's
[70:10]tucking Jenny in right now, so.
[70:11]Oh, my God.
[70:12]You can't do that.
[70:13]Don't say that.
[70:13]Oh, okay.
[70:16]Listen.
[70:16]Okay, let's do.
[70:17]That thing's got more viruses
[70:18]than 2020.
[70:19]Oh.
[70:19]DLC.
[70:20]Now, can I just say this?
[70:22]When I heard this horn start,
[70:24]I was at work.
[70:25]I had my headphones on
[70:26]and my penis moved a little bit.
[70:29]It was like a Pavlovian response.
[70:32]Just a little bit.
[70:34]Just a little bit.
[70:35]Just a little.
[70:36]Rob, what about a parody
[70:37]of me wearing silk pajamas
[70:39]that are only buttoned at the top
[70:40]with my stomach hanging out
[70:42]like they've got here?
[70:43]This, Russell,
[70:45]it would probably also make it move.
[70:47]Okay?
[70:47]That's how trained I am
[70:48]on this song and this video.
[70:50]Have you guys seen
[70:51]the deleted scene from Atlanta
[70:52]where Donald Glover is doing the,
[70:54]like, it's Donald Glover
[70:55]and Brian Tyree Henry
[70:56]and they're wearing silk PJs
[70:58]and doing the moves?
[70:59]It's great.
[70:59]I mean, this video is iconic.
[71:02]Okay?
[71:03]And it was,
[71:05]probably since we've been doing this list,
[71:07]it's a number one
[71:08]all-time jack-off video for me
[71:09]on this list so far
[71:10]because we haven't done
[71:11]any Aerosmith yet.
[71:12]But, I mean,
[71:12]but props, though,
[71:13]like, props to our imaginations,
[71:15]our 14-year-old imaginations.
[71:16]Like, for our listeners out there,
[71:19]these women are not scantily clad.
[71:20]They're wearing baggy pajamas.
[71:23]Silk pajamas.
[71:24]Or big baggy jeans
[71:26]and tank tops.
[71:27]They are unbuttoned.
[71:28]There's one button on the top.
[71:30]I mean, sure.
[71:30]There's some suggestion there.
[71:32]But, you know,
[71:32]this is not a raunchy video
[71:34]by any stretch.
[71:35]But, Aaron,
[71:36]this video
[71:38]is so embedded in my mind
[71:42]as, like,
[71:42]sex and hot
[71:44]and awesome.
[71:46]And then you listen
[71:46]to the rest of this album
[71:47]and you're like,
[71:48]oh,
[71:48]this whole album is, like,
[71:50]sex on a record.
[71:52]Freedom sex.
[71:53]Right.
[71:53]It's very much,
[71:54]it reminds me of a lot
[71:56]of the Boyz II Men videos
[71:58]from that, like,
[71:58]I'll Make Love to You
[71:59]and that type of thing, right?
[72:00]Remember all those
[72:01]Boyz II Men videos
[72:02]that had this same vibe?
[72:03]And it's, like,
[72:05]and it's probably,
[72:05]they both kind of have,
[72:06]Aaron, you'll know more,
[72:08]remember we did the list
[72:09]on New Jack Swing.
[72:10]There's got to be
[72:11]some elements
[72:11]of the New Jack Swing
[72:12]on this album here, right?
[72:14]I do think so, yeah,
[72:15]because this is when
[72:16]the bass got really turned up
[72:17]in R&B
[72:18]where you've got,
[72:19]you took classic R&B,
[72:20]you wed it with hip-hop.
[72:22]In this case,
[72:22]there's the trumpet going on,
[72:24]so it sounds like
[72:24]Roy Hargrove in a way.
[72:25]And that's probably
[72:27]before Roy Hargrove.
[72:28]And, yeah,
[72:29]it's definitely
[72:30]a New Jack Swing
[72:30]descendant.
[72:33]The next one,
[72:34]Kick Your Grip,
[72:35]Kick Your Game.
[72:35]This is with Jermaine Dupri.
[72:37]Now, this is,
[72:40]TLC is now teaching boys
[72:42]how to flirt in the club.
[72:43]Guys, if you had to flirt
[72:45]right now,
[72:46]what are you opening with?
[72:47]Aaron, what line
[72:48]are you opening with?
[72:49]Now, I did try to do a game
[72:50]where I tried to train AI
[72:52]to be a stripper at a club,
[72:53]and I was going to have Aaron
[72:54]say things to her
[72:55]to try to bring her home,
[72:56]but Chad GBT
[72:57]will not pretend
[72:58]like it's a stripper
[72:59]at the club,
[72:59]to my humiliation
[73:01]after I signed in
[73:02]with my Google account.
[73:02]Aaron, how are you flirting
[73:04]with somebody now?
[73:05]What are you saying?
[73:06]Well, if I'm flirting
[73:08]with anyone,
[73:08]it'd be my own wife.
[73:09]Aaron, of course.
[73:11]She's gone.
[73:11]Let's just,
[73:12]just for tonight.
[73:13]Let's just for tonight.
[73:14]Let's act like she's gone, Aaron.
[73:15]Drop the charade.
[73:16]Yeah.
[73:17]Let's just say she's out of town,
[73:18]out of work.
[73:18]What are you saying?
[73:19]Oh, God.
[73:19]Yo, that helps.
[73:20]Thanks.
[73:21]Yeah.
[73:21]She's in a different zip code.
[73:23]I guess I'm probably saying like,
[73:26]oh, have you read a,
[73:27]what are you reading these days?
[73:28]Oh, Jesus.
[73:29]Jesus Christ.
[73:31]What's your favorite book?
[73:32]Yeah, I don't know.
[73:33]Yeah, Aaron.
[73:36]Hey, have you,
[73:36]have you ever had
[73:37]sliced persimmons
[73:38]on your yogurt?
[73:39]I'm telling you,
[73:40]hey, listen, guys,
[73:41]I peeled the persimmons
[73:43]from our lady today.
[73:44]She sent me a text
[73:45]from the other room.
[73:45]She was like,
[73:46]ooh, those persimmons are good.
[73:47]You peel them,
[73:48]they're way better.
[73:48]Aaron, when you see your wife,
[73:50]you hug her
[73:51]and you don't ever let her go.
[73:52]You're so fucking lucky.
[73:54]I cannot believe
[73:55]how lucky you are
[73:56]to have somebody
[73:57]that cares about that.
[73:58]Every person I've talked
[73:59]about persimmons
[73:59]has made fun of you
[74:00]for five minutes at a time.
[74:02]My sister's neighbor
[74:03]came over and gave her persimmon.
[74:05]And it's all my sisters
[74:06]and I texted about
[74:06]for like two weeks.
[74:07]Okay?
[74:08]Was making fun of you
[74:10]through that exchange.
[74:11]It was crazy.
[74:12]Speaking of eating shots,
[74:13]man,
[74:13]those persimmons
[74:14]have really done it to me.
[74:15]By the way,
[74:16]when Aaron says to the girl,
[74:18]what are you reading?
[74:18]You know what they're
[74:19]going to say to him.
[74:20]What are you reading?
[74:20]Aaron, what book
[74:21]are you reading right now?
[74:22]This is Aaron's response.
[74:23]This is how he's going
[74:24]to keep flirting.
[74:24]I was reading
[74:25]the books of Jacob,
[74:26]but I set it aside
[74:27]to read
[74:27]The Underground Railroad
[74:29]by Colton Whitehead.
[74:31]Colson Whitehead.
[74:32]Sorry, Colson Whitehead.
[74:35]It's here under my microphone.
[74:36]Aaron, can you yell it
[74:37]like you're yelling over
[74:38]like music at the club?
[74:40]I was reading
[74:40]the books of Jacob
[74:41]about that 17th,
[74:42]18th century
[74:43]messianic figure in Poland.
[74:45]Okay, wait a minute,
[74:45]wait a minute, wait a minute,
[74:46]wait a minute.
[74:46]We're in the club.
[74:47]That one is the thousand pages.
[74:49]I had to cut it down.
[74:50]What?
[74:51]You were in that
[74:52]audio book?
[74:53]I was traveling
[74:54]and so I needed a book
[74:55]I could fit in my fanny pack
[74:56]and so I grabbed
[74:57]The Underground Railroad
[74:59]by Colson Whitehead,
[75:00]which is number six
[75:01]on the New York Times
[75:02]100 best books.
[75:02]What else you got
[75:03]in that fanny pack?
[75:05]Uh, actually,
[75:05]honestly, right now
[75:06]I have a sanitary napkin
[75:07]in there
[75:08]and then also some shoes.
[75:09]Oh my God.
[75:10]Okay, we can go
[75:12]to the bathroom.
[75:12]You can do stuff
[75:13]over my shirt,
[75:14]but that's it.
[75:14]Okay?
[75:16]That's it.
[75:17]I don't want to hear
[75:18]any more about Moby Dick.
[75:20]Yeah, please.
[75:21]I don't want to hear
[75:21]any more about
[75:22]the sanitary napkin
[75:23]in your fanny pack.
[75:23]Okay?
[75:25]Are you just
[75:27]spilling a lot, Aaron?
[75:28]Like, is that what
[75:28]you have with that?
[75:29]You never know
[75:30]when you might need
[75:31]I had a little
[75:32]microfiber cloth in there.
[75:33]I got really pissed off
[75:34]the other day
[75:34]because I was in the car
[75:35]and I was like,
[75:35]I was trying to hand
[75:35]Wallace a banana
[75:36]and I did that
[75:37]and then I was like,
[75:38]I hate peeling bananas
[75:39]in the car.
[75:39]It's my least favorite snack
[75:41]and I reached back
[75:42]into my fanny pack
[75:42]to get my microfiber cloth
[75:44]and it was gone
[75:44]because I think I threw it
[75:45]in the wash or something.
[75:46]Oh, and then Wallace
[75:48]opens the windows
[75:49]and throws a banana peel out
[75:50]and you look back
[75:50]and there's just chaos
[75:51]and cars skidding around.
[75:53]Exactly.
[75:53]All right.
[75:55]Matt's got something to say.
[75:56]Oh, sorry.
[75:57]This is for Joe
[75:59]from Woodbury.
[76:00]In 1994,
[76:01]Blackhawk by Blackhawk
[76:02]came out.
[76:03]Oh, there we go.
[76:04]Which has Goodbye
[76:05]Says It All
[76:05]as the number one
[76:06]of their first songs.
[76:07]Goodbye Says It All.
[76:07]So 1994 even had
[76:09]some great country music.
[76:11]Oh, I digress.
[76:12]Bring people together.
[76:12]Thanks, Matt.
[76:13]A great year on NHL
[76:15]for Sega Genesis,
[76:16]by the way.
[76:16]Digging on you.
[76:17]Is it Geyserman?
[76:18]I kind of do.
[76:19]I think NHL P93
[76:21]is the real game.
[76:23]I think if you're a 94 guy,
[76:24]you can go fuck yourself.
[76:26]You don't know shit
[76:27]about video games.
[76:28]I'm judging you
[76:29]in your video games
[76:30]if that's what you play.
[76:31]I actually loved NHL 95.
[76:33]Jeremy Roenick
[76:34]and Ed Belfort.
[76:35]I was dominating
[76:36]with those Blackhawks.
[76:36]This is their fourth single,
[76:38]by the way.
[76:38]This is looking like
[76:40]the second sexiest song
[76:42]on the album, I think.
[76:43]It's crazy.
[76:44]There's all these songs.
[76:45]I was like,
[76:46]I have to go try
[76:47]to have sex to this album.
[76:48]Okay, but then,
[76:50]you know,
[76:50]what's going to pop up
[76:51]is these intermissions,
[76:52]these interludes.
[76:53]It's like that flute album
[76:55]where he got all loud
[76:56]at the end.
[76:57]Case of the fake people.
[77:00]Do you guys ever remember
[77:02]listening to this?
[77:03]Like, I know that
[77:04]the green,
[77:05]like, two, three
[77:05]commercial hits.
[77:06]Have you guys ever listened
[77:08]to the whole album before
[77:09]or not?
[77:09]No.
[77:10]No.
[77:10]It kind of does have
[77:13]an iconic,
[77:15]the album cover
[77:16]is pretty iconic, right?
[77:17]Like, the red,
[77:18]kind of the faded out faces.
[77:20]Their eyes.
[77:21]I don't know how to describe it,
[77:21]but the album cover
[77:22]is pretty.
[77:23]And everyone knows
[77:24]the name of the album.
[77:25]Everyone knows that the album,
[77:26]oh, what's the TLC album?
[77:28]Oh, it's Crazy Sexy Cool,
[77:29]but I had never actually
[77:30]listened to it.
[77:30]Top to bottom.
[77:31]Crazy Sexy Cool interlude,
[77:35]with T-Boz.
[77:35]I'm skipping all the interludes.
[77:37]Do we need to listen to them?
[77:38]One of the interludes,
[77:39]some of the interludes
[77:40]were pretty in your face.
[77:41]They were very,
[77:41]I don't know if vulgar
[77:43]is the right word,
[77:43]but I guarantee
[77:45]if Aaron Sun's in the room,
[77:46]he's got to turn down
[77:47]his Sonos speaker.
[77:48]Well, I mean,
[77:48]it's close between
[77:49]this week and next week,
[77:50]which has the lowest moments
[77:51]of interludes.
[77:52]Oof.
[77:53]Oof.
[77:53]Yeah, this is a,
[77:55]this is a headphone,
[77:56]this is a headphone week for you.
[77:57]Red Light Special.
[77:59]Now, I want to play
[78:00]the video to this one, too,
[78:01]because I had forgotten
[78:02]this video,
[78:03]and then when I saw it,
[78:05]I had some thoughts, okay?
[78:07]If the computer wasn't out
[78:09]in the public space here,
[78:10]I mean, look at this.
[78:11]This is the one
[78:13]where they're playing cards,
[78:15]and they're, like, in charge,
[78:17]and then all the men
[78:18]are, like, hanging on them
[78:20]and stuff.
[78:20]Guys.
[78:22]It is a crazy, sexy video.
[78:26]Would you be a good
[78:27]sexy band servant, Rob?
[78:29]I think I would be.
[78:31]I think you would be, too.
[78:32]You know what I mean?
[78:33]Because it's, like,
[78:34]so much of this song
[78:36]is, like, talking about,
[78:39]I mean, really what it is
[78:41]is it's talking about
[78:42]oral sex.
[78:43]Like, getting oral sex
[78:45]from a guy.
[78:46]And it made me think,
[78:47]how do you initiate oral sex?
[78:50]What do you guys do
[78:51]when you want to
[78:52]give some oral sex?
[78:53]No, no.
[78:54]Because I think,
[78:54]I think, come on.
[78:55]No, no, no, no, Rob, Rob, Rob,
[78:58]no, I'm warning you.
[78:59]This is going to be a no-go.
[79:00]I'll just announce it.
[79:02]I'll be like, hey,
[79:02]I'm going to do some oral sex.
[79:04]I'm going to do some oral sex.
[79:04]I'm going to do some oral sex.
[79:04]I'm going to do some oral sex.
[79:04]And they're like, okay.
[79:05]But I think there's got to be
[79:06]a better way.
[79:07]Yeah, who's they?
[79:08]Whoever is in the room.
[79:10]Who's ever listened to me?
[79:12]I don't know.
[79:14]I feel like you've got
[79:15]to announce it.
[79:16]You can't just be like,
[79:17]whoa, whoa.
[79:18]Going on a trip.
[79:20]The gentlemen in this video
[79:21]are wearing some hot pants.
[79:23]Yeah, I know.
[79:24]Did you guys know in 1994,
[79:25]did you guys know in 1994,
[79:27]Mellow Gold by Beck came out
[79:29]with a title track?
[79:31]Who would have known that?
[79:32]First song,
[79:33]Loser.
[79:34]Wow.
[79:34]That's crazy.
[79:36]1994.
[79:36]That's why we love music so much.
[79:39]Next up, Waterfalls.
[79:40]You're saying, Matt,
[79:41]who put out records
[79:44]the same time as TLC
[79:45]that crushed it in 1994?
[79:47]Who did it better?
[79:48]Beck.
[79:50]Oh, there you go.
[79:51]I would say Beck did it better.
[79:54]That's cool.
[79:55]Wow.
[79:56]He's bringing it with that.
[79:58]Matt, I'll Venmo you for that one.
[80:00]Thank you.
[80:01]Next up, Waterfalls.
[80:04]This is the third single
[80:05]on the album.
[80:07]It's the first
[80:08]number one song ever
[80:10]to refer to HIV AIDS
[80:12]in one of its verses.
[80:13]That's crazy.
[80:14]1994?
[80:15]That's insane.
[80:17]This song is just
[80:18]an absolute killer.
[80:19]This is a slayer.
[80:20]This is probably a top five song
[80:23]of our generation, right?
[80:24]Like, if this song is played
[80:25]at a get-together,
[80:26]everyone's on the dance floor, right?
[80:27]Yep.
[80:28]You have to.
[80:29]College vibe album, Aaron, or not?
[80:30]I think so.
[80:31]I think if you take out the...
[80:34]The interludes.
[80:34]If you could take this album
[80:35]and snip out the interludes,
[80:37]it's perfect.
[80:38]It's a Winamp classic.
[80:39]But I will also say,
[80:40]it was interesting to me, Rob,
[80:42]you talked about how much
[80:44]their first album was more rap-inflected
[80:46]and this one is not.
[80:47]I completely forgot that Left Eye
[80:49]has a verse on this song
[80:50]because it gets edited out of the radio
[80:52]and probably even MTV.
[80:53]I was listening today,
[80:55]and I was like,
[80:55]man, I don't even know this verse.
[80:56]And I think it's a fire verse.
[80:58]It is.
[80:58]I think she's really going.
[80:59]She's really good.
[81:00]You might have to cut this out.
[81:01]What's the...
[81:02]You might not know.
[81:03]What's the, like,
[81:04]the bubbly hip...
[81:05]What's that sound?
[81:05]It's not like a wah-wah.
[81:07]What's that...
[81:08]Like, play that just a little bit more.
[81:09]Oh, yeah, I don't know.
[81:10]You want the very beginning?
[81:11]I know exactly what you're talking about.
[81:13]Who's the producer on this?
[81:14]Is it Jermaine Dupri?
[81:15]Oh, Jesus.
[81:17]Yeah, right there.
[81:19]And then the guitar.
[81:21]It's, like, bubbly.
[81:24]I hear bubbles,
[81:25]but I don't know how to describe it.
[81:27]I think it's a guitar
[81:28]with, like, a flanger over it
[81:29]to make it sound like it's underwater.
[81:30]There is some really nice, yeah,
[81:32]like, rhythm guitar,
[81:33]sound all over this album.
[81:35]And I don't know if it's a...
[81:35]if they brought in musicians
[81:36]or if it's samples or what,
[81:37]but it's some very cool, like,
[81:39]carryover from 80s funk kind of stuff.
[81:42]Awesome.
[81:43]Let's do it again.
[81:45]In this one,
[81:46]TLC talks about
[81:47]how much their man satisfies them,
[81:49]and they'd like to do it again.
[81:51]You ever hear that, Rob?
[81:53]That phrase?
[81:53]I don't think my wife
[81:54]would ever tell anybody
[81:55]that I've satisfied her in any way.
[81:57]I think I've just come to accept, guys.
[82:00]I think I just have to look it in the eye
[82:02]and just say,
[82:03]I'm bad at sex.
[82:04]Oh, no.
[82:05]And I'm not afraid to say it right now,
[82:07]but I just think I'm bad.
[82:08]I think I've thought to myself,
[82:09]oh, I just gotta get my abs in shape.
[82:11]I gotta do this.
[82:12]I gotta do that.
[82:13]I think I just don't get it.
[82:15]One of the last time
[82:16]I satisfied the upstairs roommate?
[82:17]Yes.
[82:18]Aaron, you'll like this.
[82:20]I made white chicken chili
[82:22]the other day.
[82:23]Oh, yes.
[82:24]White chicken chili
[82:25]and the upstairs roommate
[82:26]was satisfied.
[82:27]Held it.
[82:28]Oh, way to go, Russell.
[82:30]That perked up
[82:31]and did inappropriate.
[82:31]Yeah, that's satisfying.
[82:33]I was going to say,
[82:34]Jenny was on
[82:35]before the podcast
[82:36]a couple of weeks ago
[82:37]or whatever
[82:38]and did say,
[82:38]Rob is a lot.
[82:40]You could cut that.
[82:42]Rob, it might be that
[82:43]you're good at sex
[82:44]but bad at the announcing part.
[82:45]It might be all the announcing
[82:46]that you're doing
[82:47]that's a problem.
[82:47]Right.
[82:48]I've cut that out
[82:49]where I announced oral sex.
[82:50]Maybe cut that whole bit out.
[82:52]I think there's still
[82:54]some more meat on that bone.
[82:55]I think we can go back to that.
[82:56]I think there's some funny stuff
[82:57]we could do.
[82:57]If I was your girlfriend,
[82:58]it's a cover of a Prince song.
[82:59]Do you do it like in a Mike Green voice?
[83:00]Like, bang!
[83:01]Or like, how do you announce it?
[83:03]Yeah.
[83:04]Oh, of course,
[83:05]a Marv Albert voice.
[83:06]I'm going way downtown.
[83:08]Yes!
[83:09]Bang!
[83:09]I'll be down here
[83:12]for five minutes
[83:13]until you tell me to stop.
[83:14]Bang!
[83:14]Was Prince okay with this?
[83:16]Or did he work with him at all?
[83:17]He didn't have a relationship
[83:18]with Aaron.
[83:18]I was Googling that earlier.
[83:20]Prince had like a rapport
[83:21]with them or something.
[83:22]That's cool.
[83:22]I think he was going to do
[83:23]something with them
[83:24]and then something prevented it.
[83:25]But he did have some sort
[83:26]of rapport with them.
[83:27]That's very cool.
[83:28]Then another interlude
[83:31]and then take our time.
[83:33]Take our time.
[83:34]Guys, I was reading on this one
[83:37]that TLC was the first
[83:39]all-female group
[83:40]to sell 10 million records.
[83:42]So at the time,
[83:44]it was the biggest selling album
[83:45]ever by a female group.
[83:47]And I thought we could honor
[83:48]some of the other female groups
[83:49]that are amazing
[83:50]by doing a list
[83:52]of the top five female groups ever
[83:54]in terms of biggest album sales
[83:56]for one album.
[83:56]Oh, yeah.
[83:57]Wow.
[83:57]That's crazy.
[83:58]Russell, can I just say
[84:00]the joke I had for
[84:01]Take Our Time?
[84:01]Please.
[84:03]Is there anything
[84:04]that you said to girls more
[84:06]when you dated them
[84:07]in high school of like,
[84:08]listen, I just want
[84:09]to take it slow.
[84:10]And you just knew
[84:12]that was a lie.
[84:13]You just knew
[84:14]that that wasn't true.
[84:16]I didn't want to take it slow
[84:17]at all.
[84:18]This has never happened before.
[84:21]What's that?
[84:22]Never mind.
[84:24]Sorry.
[84:24]No, I just want to take it slow.
[84:29]OK, you can sit on my face
[84:32]if you want to.
[84:32]Like, just write it down.
[84:33]Right to 12.
[84:35]Right off the bat.
[84:37]OK, I'll have sex
[84:39]in your dad's van.
[84:40]OK.
[84:40]That is this episode
[84:43]while they're driving down the road.
[84:44]Hey, can you take it slow?
[84:46]Don't get there too fast.
[84:47]Mind the speed bumps, sir.
[84:50]Yeah, no, go back over those speed bumps.
[84:52]Yeah.
[84:53]Turn around.
[84:55]All right, on this list.
[84:56]Now I got to keep the van sex part in.
[84:57]We're going to go from one to five.
[84:59]So we're going to go with the one
[85:00]that actually topped TLC.
[85:01]Right now, TLC is still number two.
[85:03]Number two of all time.
[85:04]They have, I believe,
[85:06]I don't know how many.
[85:08]It's like 13 million albums sold.
[85:09]So this album we're listening to now
[85:11]is still number two all time
[85:13]by a female group.
[85:14]Number one is the album Spice
[85:17]from 1996.
[85:19]It's the Spice of the West.
[85:20]23 million albums sold.
[85:24]For the most double.
[85:25]23 million?
[85:25]Double from the number two album.
[85:28]That's crazy amazing, isn't it?
[85:30]Wow.
[85:31]I feel like this reaches
[85:33]across like all genres.
[85:34]It plays on every single radio station.
[85:37]I mean, how many times
[85:38]did you hear this growing up?
[85:39]9,000, a billion.
[85:42]This is up there with Santana Smooth.
[85:44]That's in that kind of category for me.
[85:46]Look at that.
[85:47]The banger, though.
[85:48]Let's get some beer handed to him.
[85:51]Wow.
[85:51]That's 96.
[85:53]What a guy.
[85:53]1999.
[85:54]That's the guy who's good at sex
[85:56]right there.
[85:57]She's bringing him drinks.
[85:58]That guy is good at sex.
[86:00]Congratulations, Aaron.
[86:01]Next up on the list is from
[86:02]1999.
[86:03]The female group is
[86:05]Destiny's Child.
[86:05]This is Say My Name.
[86:06]The album is writing on the wall.
[86:08]Writing's on the wall.
[86:10]I think this is about
[86:15]9 million, so this did not pass
[86:17]Crazy Sexy Cool, but still
[86:18]very high.
[86:19]Don't you think they'll
[86:23]be on the list at all, Matt?
[86:24]Or is it just Beyonce
[86:25]the solo album?
[86:26]I don't know.
[86:27]They have to be.
[86:29]Don't you think there's a test
[86:30]you could do to see if you're
[86:31]good at sex, though?
[86:32]You know what I mean?
[86:33]Like when you go to a trainer
[86:34]and they're like, you know,
[86:35]we're going to see how far
[86:36]you can bend and let's see
[86:37]how far you can do at lunch
[86:38]and let's, you know,
[86:38]they're kind of doing
[86:39]an evaluation.
[86:39]I feel like there should be
[86:41]an office somewhere
[86:42]where you go in and like
[86:43]they strap you to a machine
[86:45]and you kind of like wiggle
[86:46]around or whatever you do
[86:47]during sex.
[86:48]And then they would say,
[86:49]okay, you're getting like a,
[86:50]you know, you're in 75
[86:51]out of 100.
[86:52]Here's what you could do better.
[86:53]I think that's a great
[86:54]business idea.
[86:55]You know what?
[86:55]I'm cutting this out.
[86:56]This is going to be
[86:57]our business idea.
[86:57]A sex evaluator.
[87:00]It's like a sleep study,
[87:01]but it's a sex, guys,
[87:01]a sex study.
[87:02]A sex.
[87:04]You know, that's,
[87:04]there's a lot of people, Rob.
[87:07]There's a lot of people
[87:08]all over the world
[87:10]that have tried this
[87:11]and they're all either
[87:13]dead or in jail right now.
[87:14]I'm trying exactly
[87:15]what you're doing right now.
[87:16]But see, at this point.
[87:17]Oh, yeah.
[87:18]Why don't you come in
[87:18]and let's see how good
[87:19]you are at the sex.
[87:20]And if you're really good,
[87:22]I'll give you a different
[87:22]colored scarf.
[87:23]I mean, this guy,
[87:24]this is all making sense to me.
[87:26]$2.90.
[87:27]Russell, just to bring
[87:28]this back on, $2.91.
[87:30]So they're coming up
[87:30]in about a year and a half.
[87:31]About a year and a half.
[87:33]Yeah.
[87:33]Maybe two years.
[87:34]Two years.
[87:35]We're not out of the $300 yet.
[87:36]That's crazy.
[87:37]Next up on the list
[87:38]is the Pussycat Dolls.
[87:39]This is PCD.
[87:41]The song is Don't Cha.
[87:42]Wait, how many albums
[87:44]did they sell?
[87:45]This is 9 million.
[87:47]9 million?
[87:48]They only had one album, right?
[87:49]Well, this is fourth
[87:50]out of female groups ever.
[87:51]But no,
[87:52]there's a few repeats
[87:53]with TLC and Spice Girls,
[87:55]but eliminated repeats.
[87:57]This is number four.
[87:57]Wow.
[87:59]Wow.
[88:00]Do you guys ever get
[88:02]into this group
[88:03]and listen to these songs
[88:04]or not?
[88:04]No, I listen to it,
[88:07]but I never like
[88:08]sought out the album or anything.
[88:09]I like their early stuff.
[88:10]So far,
[88:11]so far,
[88:12]there's a huge team here, right?
[88:13]Like,
[88:14]super hot,
[88:15]extremely good dancing,
[88:17]extremely good musicality.
[88:18]Oh, man,
[88:19]it's about to get real
[88:19]on this next one, man.
[88:21]8 million albums sold.
[88:22]Is it a person
[88:24]or is it a group?
[88:25]It's Wilson Phillips.
[88:27]Hold on.
[88:28]Wow.
[88:28]Oh, man.
[88:30]8 million.
[88:30]It's so easy.
[88:32]Goodbye.
[88:32]Until next week.
[88:34]To that day.
[88:35]I'm gonna let him
[88:36]hold you down
[88:37]and make you say goodbye.
[88:38]Did you know?
[88:39]Did you know?
[88:40]Did you change?
[88:40]Change.
[88:41]You think?
[88:42]Go your way.
[88:43]What cigarettes do you think
[88:44]Wilson Phillips?
[88:45]Oh, no.
[88:45]One more day.
[88:46]Rob, Matt's cooking.
[88:47]Don't.
[88:48]Right.
[88:49]Rob interrupted.
[88:50]It's gone.
[88:51]Okay, I'll see
[88:54]what I said again
[88:54]because it was worth it.
[88:55]Bring it on.
[88:55]What cigarettes do you...
[88:57]Hold out for one more day.
[88:58]Whoa.
[89:00]Whoa.
[89:00]Yes.
[89:00]That was so good.
[89:02]I'm gonna take down the music
[89:03]and emphasize Matt's voice
[89:04]during that part.
[89:05]What kind of cigarettes
[89:08]do you think they smoked?
[89:08]Wilson's?
[89:11]Wilson's?
[89:11]Oh.
[89:11]Isn't there Phillips too?
[89:13]Yeah.
[89:14]Is there two guys?
[89:16]Wait a minute.
[89:16]You know who doesn't
[89:19]get enough credit ever?
[89:20]Who's that?
[89:20]Phillips.
[89:21]Phillips.
[89:21]Listen,
[89:23]it's my favorite screwdriver.
[89:24]It's number two
[89:25]after Starbit.
[89:26]Starbit,
[89:27]number one favorite screwdriver.
[89:29]I love to screw in
[89:29]a nice Starbit screw.
[89:30]Number two,
[89:31]gonna go with the Phillips.
[89:33]Number last place,
[89:35]the Flathead.
[89:36]The Flathead screw
[89:37]is the worst one to screw in.
[89:39]When I see an Ikea thing
[89:40]coming in,
[89:41]it's all Flathead screws.
[89:42]Get me out of there.
[89:43]Do not want to.
[89:43]So boring.
[89:43]Why do they even make those anymore?
[89:45]It's the worst.
[89:46]Rob, favorite generic
[89:47]brand of schnapps.
[89:48]Let's hear it for...
[89:49]Phillips.
[89:51]Yeah.
[89:52]Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[89:53]Phillips.
[89:53]One of the drinks
[89:55]I can't drink anymore.
[89:56]Rip your schnapps.
[89:56]Rob, Rob,
[89:59]favorite volleyball
[90:00]to be stuck
[90:01]on an island with?
[90:01]Probably Wilson.
[90:03]Wilson!
[90:04]All right,
[90:06]last group on the list.
[90:07]Rob, let's talk more
[90:08]about what you got caught
[90:09]doing in the 1990s.
[90:11]Hey, Matt, Matt,
[90:12]what do I do with my car
[90:14]in a gas station?
[90:14]Fill her up?
[90:17]Fill her up.
[90:18]Russell, say that again
[90:22]so I edit that last part out.
[90:23]Do your intro again.
[90:25]Let's go back
[90:26]to the mid-90s
[90:27]and what you were doing
[90:27]in the basement couch.
[90:29]It's Salt-N-Pepa.
[90:30]The album is very necessary.
[90:31]Seven billion albums.
[90:32]It's shoot.
[90:33]Wow.
[90:34]Here I go.
[90:34]I didn't know
[90:35]it was going to be that.
[90:36]Okay, then.
[90:38]Guys, they had on a...
[90:40]They had on a bodysuit
[90:42]in this video
[90:42]that blew my mind
[90:44]when I was growing up.
[90:45]This and the Moulin Rouge video.
[90:49]Forget about it.
[90:49]If you could have this,
[90:50]you could pick this song
[90:52]free for waterfalls.
[90:53]You only get one
[90:54]on a desert island for life.
[90:55]What are you taking with you?
[90:56]Oh.
[90:59]I think I got to go.
[91:00]That's a tough decision.
[91:00]This is this one
[91:01]because waterfalls
[91:02]is kind of depressing.
[91:03]Creep, I would just get
[91:05]too thirsty on the island
[91:06]if you know what I mean.
[91:07]I think this is a fun one.
[91:08]It's just like shoot.
[91:09]Yeah, you can memorize
[91:11]the lyrics.
[91:11]I mean, when you can sing
[91:12]along with this,
[91:12]the voodoo that you do,
[91:14]it's fun.
[91:14]Rob, I want to ask you
[91:16]to just go to the very beginning.
[91:18]Is this the greatest beginning
[91:20]to a song ever?
[91:20]Listen to the beginning.
[91:21]Hey, yeah.
[91:22]I want to shoot, baby.
[91:25]That.
[91:26]That's really good.
[91:27]I mean...
[91:28]How about this?
[91:29]Wait, that is awesome.
[91:30]That's really, really good.
[91:32]That's you.
[91:33]Russell?
[91:34]That was a top five list.
[91:36]That was a top five list.
[91:37]Were all of those
[91:38]from the 90s?
[91:39]It was another.
[91:40]What?
[91:40]All of those from the 90s.
[91:42]Well, what is Wilson Phillips?
[91:43]Let's hold on.
[91:44]I think it's 90s.
[91:46]Every single...
[91:49]1992.
[91:49]So every single
[91:52]best-selling girl group
[91:53]is from the 90s?
[91:54]We should watch that video.
[91:56]Hold on.
[91:56]Hold on.
[91:57]Watch that video.
[91:59]On a beach?
[91:59]Are you requesting
[92:00]a video breakdown?
[92:01]Video breakdown.
[92:03]Play the bit.
[92:04]Play the sting.
[92:05]Play the sting.
[92:05]Come on.
[92:06]Well, this looks like
[92:08]a Northern California beach.
[92:09]In fact, that looks like
[92:09]the Desolation Wilderness.
[92:10]Oh, there's on top of them.
[92:12]I would never sit on a mountain.
[92:13]I don't care how hot she was.
[92:14]I would never sit on
[92:15]like a cliff of a mountain.
[92:17]This video has more women
[92:19]on beaches
[92:20]in collared shirts and vests
[92:21]than any other video
[92:22]and recorded history.
[92:23]Dude, that's the
[92:24]Northern California beach scene, man.
[92:25]It's cold on the beach up here.
[92:26]Yeah, look at those
[92:27]shoulder pads.
[92:28]They're wearing a suit jacket.
[92:29]I mean, I would wear
[92:30]a suit jacket on the beach
[92:31]if I was on Goat Head Beach.
[92:32]That looks like, well...
[92:34]Aaron, if you wore
[92:36]a suit jacket to the beach,
[92:37]I'd walk away from you.
[92:38]I would not walk
[92:39]to the beach.
[92:40]A suit jacket on the beach
[92:43]is just wrong.
[92:44]This is a killer song.
[92:46]This is so good.
[92:48]The video is entrancing, too.
[92:49]It's just their faces.
[92:50]And it makes me think, guys,
[92:52]what if I was a before and after
[92:55]thing for the sex clinic
[92:57]that I'm talking about?
[92:57]You know what I mean?
[92:58]I could be you
[92:59]the before and be like,
[93:00]this is how I have sex.
[93:01]And I'd be like,
[93:02]oh, ouch, ouch.
[93:03]You know what I mean
[93:04]when you always say ouch?
[93:04]And then Aaron could be the after.
[93:07]Like, that's what you learn
[93:08]at the clinic.
[93:08]And you always say ouch.
[93:09]It would show like the doctor's
[93:12]like moving Aaron's butt
[93:13]and be like this.
[93:14]And Aaron's like,
[93:14]Aaron's going like this.
[93:15]Oh, no.
[93:16]I think I was thinking
[93:18]of Goat Rock Beach.
[93:19]I can look that one up
[93:20]in Sonoma.
[93:20]All right.
[93:22]Okay, you guys, hey,
[93:23]you guys don't want to invest
[93:24]in the sex clinic?
[93:25]That's fine.
[93:26]You hate making money?
[93:27]That's fine with me.
[93:28]You're missing out.
[93:29]I'd be the guy
[93:30]that aced the Scantron
[93:31]but failed the over-the-road test.
[93:33]All right, Poindexter.
[93:36]Let's get in this
[93:37]and try it out.
[93:38]Oh, my God.
[93:40]Aced the Scantron?
[93:42]Can you imagine?
[93:43]Oh, that's good.
[93:44]Russell's looking
[93:44]and it's like,
[93:45]there's like a penis
[93:46]and Russell's like,
[93:47]okay, okay.
[93:48]Where's that going to go?
[93:49]And then he gets in the car.
[93:50]He's getting tested.
[93:52]He gets in the van.
[93:53]My dad's driving the van.
[93:55]Russell's in the sex part
[93:56]in the back.
[93:56]He's like, oh, man,
[93:57]I'm going to fail this totally.
[93:59]I just go ball
[94:00]in the back of the van.
[94:01]I failed.
[94:04]Russell,
[94:05]are you intentionally
[94:06]failing your sex license
[94:07]so you can just go back
[94:08]and have more sex
[94:09]during the test?
[94:09]I haven't thought about it like that.
[94:12]I didn't know.
[94:12]What?
[94:13]Guys,
[94:16]March of 1994.
[94:17]Tim McGraw.
[94:18]Not a moment too soon.
[94:19]With the hits like
[94:21]Indian Outlaw.
[94:23]Not a moment too soon.
[94:25]And Don't Take the Girl.
[94:26]Just classic country.
[94:28]I forget.
[94:28]Is he really?
[94:29]Is he related to
[94:29]Tug McGraw?
[94:31]Yeah.
[94:32]Tug's his dad.
[94:32]Kind of call back
[94:33]to our Tuck joke,
[94:34]but I couldn't quite get it.
[94:35]Oh.
[94:36]Reminds me of that movie
[94:39]Silence of the Lambs.
[94:40]Wasn't that the giant
[94:41]lineman that blew off
[94:43]his fingers with the
[94:44]July 4th fireworks?
[94:45]Oh.
[94:46]Tuck, you mean Yura?
[94:47]No.
[94:49]Who is that?
[94:49]That's Jason Tuck.
[94:50]That's a rule that Tom Brady
[94:50]doesn't even tell.
[94:51]Justin Tuck.
[94:53]I messed up my
[94:54]giant steel lineman.
[94:55]I apologize.
[94:55]Neil and Joe.
[94:57]Neil and Joe, I'm sorry.
[94:58]I'm sorry.
[94:59]I'm sorry.
[94:59]I'm sorry.
[95:00]Wasn't his name
[95:00]Jason St. Paul Pierre?
[95:01]Isn't that the one who
[95:02]actually blew off his fingers?
[95:03]Well, that was a French guy.
[95:05]That was a French version.
[95:06]I think you're thinking
[95:07]of Kabir Gbajam
[95:08]and Emilia.
[95:09]Can I get a...
[95:11]No.
[95:11]Can I get Witnesses
[95:12]and Interlude Switch?
[95:13]So sexy.
[95:18]And then finally,
[95:19]Something Wicked
[95:19]This Way Comes
[95:20]with Andre 3000.
[95:22]Look at this.
[95:22]This immediately sounds
[95:23]like an outcast song, right?
[95:24]You're like, oh, cool.
[95:25]We're in the dungeon.
[95:25]When you look at
[95:27]the way it's written...
[95:28]They're all in Atlanta.
[95:28]I mean, all of them are
[95:30]off of Atlanta.
[95:31]Is everything he's listed at
[95:33]is it always
[95:33]gray from outcasts?
[95:34]Because that's the way
[95:35]it's listed on
[95:35]when you read the list.
[95:37]Really?
[95:38]Yeah.
[95:39]I don't know.
[95:40]I also...
[95:41]I tried to do some
[95:41]sample sleuthing
[95:43]in this song
[95:43]because I thought
[95:43]it was the same sample
[95:44]as the Rappin' Forte
[95:47]song, Play His Club,
[95:48]but I can't figure out
[95:50]what the sample is.
[95:50]The internet does not
[95:52]tell me what the sample
[95:52]is on that one.
[95:53]That's like a bad
[95:55]ice cream shop.
[95:56]Yeah, you can't
[95:57]get a sample.
[95:58]No.
[95:59]Yeah, you said it
[96:00]better than me.
[96:00]I was working with you.
[96:02]I'm here with you.
[96:03]We're on a show together
[96:05]doing bits.
[96:06]I'm anti-ice cream samples.
[96:09]Never have gotten
[96:10]a sample.
[96:10]I always just pick it.
[96:11]You don't know
[96:12]until you finish
[96:12]the whole thing, right?
[96:13]What does the sample
[96:14]tell you?
[96:14]I just get the whole thing.
[96:15]Yep, I'm with you, Russell.
[96:16]My greatest weakness
[96:18]is if I go
[96:19]into an ice cream shop
[96:20]and there's a
[96:20]question mark flavor,
[96:21]I'm getting it every time.
[96:22]Oh, no way.
[96:23]I cannot resist
[96:25]the allure
[96:26]of the question mark flavor.
[96:27]I'm the guy who bought
[96:28]the jelly beans
[96:28]that were
[96:28]half of them
[96:29]tasted bad.
[96:30]God, I bought
[96:31]a lot of those.
[96:31]I thought that was so fun.
[96:32]I think tasting
[96:33]Bean boozled?
[96:34]Yes.
[96:35]That's terrible.
[96:35]I love bean boozled.
[96:37]That was coming
[96:37]in a couple times.
[96:38]Oh, it's so gross
[96:39]because the one
[96:40]they're like,
[96:40]this tastes like barf
[96:41]and you're like,
[96:41]yep, it does.
[96:42]It's so acidic.
[96:43]Oh, it tastes like worms,
[96:44]yeah.
[96:44]What the fuck, Aaron?
[96:47]I don't know
[96:47]what worms taste like.
[96:48]Listen, we are not
[96:49]talking about
[96:50]Crazy Next to Cool,
[96:50]the album.
[96:51]We are talking
[96:51]about the list
[96:52]and where does
[96:53]this album belong
[96:54]on the list?
[96:54]We've got it right now.
[96:55]Of course,
[96:56]we all remember 218.
[96:57]If that is the perfect
[96:58]place for crazy,
[96:59]that would be crazy
[97:00]and that would mean
[97:01]it's rolling well-toned,
[97:04]okay?
[97:05]Or would this be sexy?
[97:07]Okay, sexy means
[97:08]that it's too low
[97:09]on the list.
[97:10]It should have been
[97:10]higher up.
[97:11]That doesn't make any sense.
[97:12]That would be rolling boned.
[97:14]It should have been
[97:15]higher up on the list.
[97:16]We should have heard
[97:16]this already.
[97:17]Or is this a rolling groan?
[97:19]Okay, sir.
[97:21]Okay, good.
[97:23]That's good.
[97:24]That's good.
[97:24]This is Russell
[97:25]and I.
[97:26]I had the sex clinic
[97:26]next to each other.
[97:27]Rooms next to each other.
[97:29]If this was on a scantron,
[97:34]I would get it.
[97:34]Process of elimination.
[97:39]You haven't lived
[97:40]a real life.
[97:41]You're doing the math problems,
[97:42]Russell.
[97:42]Russell's solving
[97:43]all the math problems
[97:44]and then trying to have sex
[97:45]and it's like,
[97:46]hmm,
[97:46]can't figure that out.
[97:47]Okay, now,
[97:48]goodwill hunting.
[97:50]Okay,
[97:50]it's not making any sense.
[97:51]What do you think?
[97:52]Rolling well-toned,
[97:53]rolling boned,
[97:53]or rolling groan?
[97:54]Let's start with
[97:56]Aaron, TLC,
[97:57]Crazy Sexy Cool,
[97:58]1994.
[97:58]I like this album.
[98:00]It's very fun.
[98:00]It is unfortunately
[98:02]placed on the list to me
[98:04]given what we're about
[98:05]to hear next week
[98:06]and because I listened
[98:07]to them both today,
[98:08]listened to this one
[98:08]and immediately the next one,
[98:09]I'm going to give it
[98:11]a rolling,
[98:12]a low rolling well-toned
[98:14]because I like it.
[98:15]I think the group is amazing,
[98:17]but I think next week's
[98:19]is going to be better.
[98:19]What do you think, Matt?
[98:22]Rolling well-toned,
[98:22]rolling boned,
[98:23]or rolling groan?
[98:23]TLC, Crazy Sexy Cool.
[98:25]I think my 1994 self
[98:29]thinks that this album
[98:30]should be way higher
[98:30]in the list.
[98:31]Way higher in the list.
[98:32]That makes sense.
[98:33]Again, a lot of it
[98:35]comes from the MTV era.
[98:37]The videos were on
[98:39]all the time.
[98:40]Waterfalls is like
[98:42]everybody knows that song.
[98:45]Stuff like that.
[98:45]So on the Russell scale
[98:47]of having just
[98:48]banger after banger,
[98:49]this deserves to be
[98:52]way higher on the list
[98:53]just from an album standpoint.
[98:54]I can't believe that
[98:55]the Spice Girls sold,
[98:57]this is the second,
[98:58]you said this is
[98:59]the second most popular.
[99:01]At the time,
[99:01]so this came out in 94.
[99:03]It was the first
[99:04]all-female group
[99:05]to hit 10 million.
[99:05]And I think they got
[99:07]12-ish or so.
[99:09]And the Spice Girls
[99:10]two years later in 96
[99:11]passed it
[99:12]and hit 23 million.
[99:13]Spice Girls is,
[99:14]Spice Girls,
[99:15]that album's not on the list,
[99:16]which, you know, again,
[99:17]it's not a popularity contest.
[99:18]It's the best albums
[99:19]of all time.
[99:19]But you would think that
[99:21]that album would be
[99:22]on the list too,
[99:23]I guess, somewhere.
[99:23]But I'll just say
[99:25]it's rolling well-toned.
[99:25]Rolling well-toned right here.
[99:26]If I really,
[99:28]somebody told me
[99:29]it should be way higher
[99:29]on the list,
[99:30]I wouldn't argue with them.
[99:30]But I'll just say
[99:31]it's rolling well-toned.
[99:32]What do you think, Ross?
[99:34]Rolling well-toned,
[99:35]rolling bone,
[99:35]or rolling groan?
[99:36]I'm gonna gotta say
[99:37]this is rolling well-toned.
[99:38]If you can be,
[99:39]at the time when you came out,
[99:40]if you were the greatest
[99:41]album of your type of group
[99:44]or your genre of music,
[99:45]this has to be on the list.
[99:47]It's got the two
[99:48]commercial hits,
[99:49]which I think are,
[99:49]the only thing to me
[99:50]that I don't think holds up
[99:51]are the interludes.
[99:52]Maybe at the time,
[99:53]the interludes were popular,
[99:55]but the interludes to now,
[99:56]now are an instant skip.
[99:58]If I had this on vinyl,
[99:59]it would be painful
[100:00]to get through the interludes.
[100:01]So that's the only thing
[100:02]I didn't like.
[100:03]That's probably the only reason
[100:04]I say this isn't rolling bone.
[100:05]It's the interludes,
[100:06]but I love this album.
[100:08]And it's got the cool,
[100:09]the cool artwork
[100:09]we've seen before.
[100:10]And this is like of a time.
[100:12]This like defines
[100:13]a time of music
[100:15]to not have it on here
[100:16]or not have it be this high
[100:17]would be a complete whiff
[100:19]on what was happening
[100:21]in music at the time.
[100:22]So this is rolling well-toned.
[100:23]I loved it.
[100:24]I will listen to it.
[100:25]I will listen to it again.
[100:25]This was kind of a fun one
[100:26]to turn on.
[100:27]And you're just like,
[100:27]oh yeah, banger, banger.
[100:29]I remember that.
[100:30]Like it was just,
[100:30]it was a big time memory album
[100:32]for me, for sure.
[100:33]Unfortunately,
[100:34]you guys are incorrect.
[100:35]This album gets a rolling deviation.
[100:38]Deviation.
[100:39]When the creep video came out,
[100:42]it was a real sliding doors
[100:43]moment in my life.
[100:44]If I hadn't had MTV,
[100:45]there's a good chance
[100:47]I would be a professor
[100:48]at MIT right now.
[100:49]Okay.
[100:50]I would be probably like
[100:51]a world famous politician.
[100:52]I would have been one of the,
[100:53]I would have done
[100:55]anything I wanted
[100:55]be the prime minister of France.
[100:57]Instead,
[100:58]I saw that video.
[100:59]Okay.
[101:01]And the rest of my life
[101:01]literally was in my hand
[101:03]at that moment.
[101:03]Okay.
[101:04]It's just,
[101:05]it was crazy.
[101:06]All right.
[101:07]Now, next week,
[101:08]next week,
[101:10]I get it.
[101:12]Say hello to my little friend.
[101:14]Okay.
[101:15]Not that one.
[101:16]He's my worst enemy,
[101:17]which is why I beat him
[101:18]three to four times a week.
[101:19]Oh,
[101:20]Oh,
[101:25]what?
[101:25]We're cooking with really
[101:27]we're just,
[101:27]we're it's,
[101:28]it's a sound clip
[101:29]from the album.
[101:29]Oh,
[101:30]that's a disaster.
[101:31]We're cooking with the chef.
[101:33]We've got Ray Kwan
[101:34]with only built for Cuban links.
[101:36]Ooh.
[101:37]When you want to hear about
[101:39]the greatest albums of all time.
[101:41]Russell,
[101:43]1994,
[101:43]May 27th,
[101:45]1994,
[101:46]a little band called
[101:47]the 69 boys came out.
[101:49]So Tootsie roll.
[101:50]Wow.
[101:50]My question is though,
[101:52]Matt,
[101:53]these are all resonating
[101:54]with me.
[101:55]And Aaron and Rob,
[101:56]do these albums resonate
[101:58]the same with people
[101:59]that are four years
[102:00]younger than us?
[102:01]I think the country does
[102:04]not,
[102:04]not the,
[102:05]I don't know.
[102:06]I think so.
[102:07]I mean,
[102:07]Weezer,
[102:08]the blue album is,
[102:09]is very,
[102:09]very well received
[102:11]across many,
[102:12]many generations.
[102:14]Matt,
[102:15]your thoughts on these albums
[102:16]I put on the right side
[102:17]of this notepad here tonight.
[102:18]I just wanted to remind you
[102:19]some of the things from Rob,
[102:20]the bad decisions
[102:21]I put on the left one.
[102:22]Rob did tell us a story
[102:25]about,
[102:25]I believe you missed this,
[102:26]how his dad tucked his wife
[102:27]into bed one time.
[102:28]Oh God.
[102:29]I had forgotten about that.
[102:31]Rob gave a speech
[102:33]to our Spotify listeners
[102:34]that was pretty terrible.
[102:35]And then finally,
[102:37]Rob was very confidently
[102:40]rebellious,
[102:40]unapologetically bold
[102:42]and playfully defiant
[102:43]when he was announcing it
[102:44]to his wife.
[102:45]Oh,
[102:46]I got to keep so much
[102:49]in now,
[102:49]Russell.
[102:50]That's crazy.
[102:51]Aaron,
[102:52]1995,
[102:52]1994,
[102:54]Turkish Rock,
[102:55]Ruckus,
[102:55]Ruckus,
[102:55]Ruckus,
[102:56]Bone.
[102:56]Oh,
[102:57]Russell.
[102:58]Is that on the list?
[103:00]Russell,
[103:01]did you fail your road test again?
[103:02]Yeah,
[103:03]I went the wrong way
[103:05]down a one way.
