Cultural communication styles significantly impact hospitality experiences, as demonstrated by the contrast between French and Irish interactions: French people often perceive English speakers as presumptuous and may respond with hostility, while Irish people tend to be more welcoming and friendly toward visitors who attempt to engage with their culture. This difference stems from cultural attitudes toward language use and social interaction, where some cultures value linguistic preservation and may view attempts to speak their language as condescending, while others prioritize hospitality and social connection.

Two weeks.
>> Yeah.
>> Which is a two weeks.
>> Yeah.
>> Like tie in the vineyard into that at the end.
>> That's a white guy's bucket list.
>> That's like before I die, I got to hit >> act. Just get out to act for a little bit.
>> No. No, I didn't.
>> I didn't.
>> How was it? What What was the If you had to sum up those all your travels into like one big highlight or what what was the what was your shining moment? Your one shining moment.
>> Rank those three.
>> Good question. Uh, I mean they were so different. I I I really didn't spend much time in Martha's Vineyard. I was only there for less than 24 hours, but uh based on my overall experience, I would say Ireland was number one. I had a great time in Paris. And then Mars Vineyard was great, but I just didn't experience it to the degree that I had the others.
>> Yeah, makes sense.
>> Rank your top 18 R&D's months.
>> I really liked uh the 11th. I spent a lot of time in the 11th. It's cool. Best Guinness.
>> Best Guinness I had was at the halfway house at uh >> golf course.
>> Hard glass.
>> Yeah, we were talking about that.
>> Crazy how good it was.
>> The plastic pint glass.
>> We were having lots of debates about if it actually is different or not. I was on the side of it's very different. I've never had it though. But everyone says it's like a completely different drink.
>> Yeah. I mean, I would equate it to like having a Bud Light of like 10 degree temperature changes.
>> Oh, really? Yeah.
>> Wait, what do you mean by that?
>> Like if you had one that was like ice cold and then you had one that was like room temp and then you had one that was like that was the the the level of taste difference. And I'm not >> I'm not a Guinness guy. I don't really drink much Guinness. So going in I didn't have this like attuned pallet for it.
>> Yeah.
>> And very quickly >> you could tell.
>> Well, we had I had a lot of them.
>> Yeah.
>> At so many different places.
>> Is it just everywhere you go they're like you got to try.
>> It's all you drink when you're there.
It's all you drink.
>> It sounds great. Was your [ __ ] black?
>> No.
>> Every bar we went to, I mean, not everywhere, but we would ask like, "What percentage of your overall sales are Guinness?"
>> Yeah.
>> And they'd be like, "75%."
>> God.
>> And then, and they have like 30 beers on tap.
>> Yeah. Yeah. Of course.
>> And then you'd say like, "Okay." And then what? And then they'd be like, "20% is Coors Light."
>> Really?
>> And then 5% is the 19 other beers that we have.
Guinness extra stout.
>> Horite is enormous over there.
>> That's That's great.
>> That's the only uh pillser or whatever that anyone drinks.
>> Really? That's the That's That's it's a great choice.
>> Yeah.
>> Mountains are blue.
>> Mhm.
>> What about a nice Killian's Irish red?
>> Yeah, I had one of those. That was pretty good. I I didn't mind that. Um >> a red is a That's like a nice change of pace. It's like when you're in Europe drinking red wine all day and then you're like, I'm going to have a white wine.
>> Yeah. have something a little bit different.
>> Yeah, >> that's beautiful. How uh so you were gone for uh what 16 days?
>> I don't know.
>> Fewer.
>> Can I put an over under on the amount of drinks that you had at 101.5?
>> Yeah. Um I would go over on that.
>> Wow. Over 100.
>> Let's think about it. What? 16 days.
You're talking >> You must be dead.
>> No. Then it would be Yeah. I'm not well.
>> You must be a shell of a man right now.
>> Last night, the last night that I was in Ireland, I woke up at 1 in >> I woke up at 1 in the morning and ran to the toilet and threw up all over the back of the seat.
>> Oh, back the front of the lid.
>> I know your throw up looked like venom.
I know. It was like crawling out of itself.
>> It just sprayed into words. Stop drinking.
>> That's insane.
>> So, were you getting like banged up or was it just the consistency? I didn't get banged up. I mean, >> it's just the drinking all day.
>> Yeah. Yeah. Not all day. Not all day.
Every every like every night we you finish around the second you wake up, but >> No, dude. We The other part was like we would have our tea times. They would put us off late because we were slow.
>> Yeah. Cuz you're filming >> and we're Yeah. So, we go out at like 3:30. By the way, it stays light there till 10:00 p.m.
>> Oh, I didn't even think about that.
Especially and then we that was in Ireland proper and then in Northern Ireland at the top we we would be like till 10:30.
>> Damn.
>> And so we'd come off the course at like 9. All the restaurants would be closed.
We'd have to eat at the clubhouse a lot of the time >> and >> which is probably great.
>> Oh, really?
>> I don't know.
>> How's the food? I don't even know how how is the food out there.
>> I went in expecting it to be hard because I was there 9 years ago with my dad and the food was inedible. Yeah, >> it's come a long way to their credit.
>> Love that.
>> It really has.
>> Love that.
>> They've made major improvements. I attribute that to a degree to the influx of wealthy American golf tourists.
>> Yeah.
>> Who are like, why isn't there a single salad on the menu, bro? They they at one point I tried to order a side of seasonal vegetables and they were like, "We don't have any vegetables.
>> We have smaller potatoes."
>> They were like, "We've run out of vegetables." I'm like, I've never heard that from a restaurant.
>> And especially like the greenest country ever. Like you look out the window and it's all green.
>> But I don't think they can grow vegetables that easily because it rains too much.
>> Oh, does it really?
>> Tomatoes need a ton of sunlight, right?
>> And isn't it all like bogs and like like rocks? Like all the fences that are built around each one of the properties is just like rocks that they found in the ground there.
>> Yeah. Yeah. And it's just I mean it's just wet all the time. So you can't, you know, a lot of crops wouldn't survive.
That's why the only thing you can consistently eat by way of a vegetable is cabbage.
>> Oh wow. I never even thought about that.
Cabbage.
>> Always eating cabbage out there.
>> Cabbage is hard.
>> Yeah, cabbage is the worst.
>> Yeah, it's really bad.
>> Unless you pickle it, but they haven't even got to they haven't even got to the kimchi stage of it.
>> It's to be honest, it's not really great if you pickle it either, >> but at least it's good for your gut. But then I heard that people overconumption of kimchi is causing colon cancer. Have you heard this? Have you seen this? Have you heard about this?
>> No. But I don't really know how someone could possibly be over consuming kimchi.
Like it's so bad. How are you overdoing it?
>> I can't believe that kimchi goes bad. I had to throw out some kimchi cuz it was past the expiration date. Isn't the point of it that it's bad? It's like already bad. Like that's the that's why we're consuming it. M >> is it MGK? That was like, "Yeah, I just smoke cigarettes and and have kimchi."
It's like, "That's not good. That's not good for you."
>> Yeah. That's why his skin's turning black. It's not tattoos.
>> So, you had no good meals. What about like uh >> No, we had some good meals. We did >> steaks, hamburgers.
>> Yeah, their beef is good cuz the cows eat all the grass and the grass is really plentiful.
>> Yeah, that makes sense.
>> So, they have high caliber beef. We had a couple decent meals in Dublin. The Dublin seems to be a pretty good food center. Uh, and I think there's a very prominent like cooking school there.
>> Oh, really?
>> Yeah.
>> Is it like what do they eat? Do they eat a lot of like fish? Like fish and chips?
>> A lot of beef. Lot of beef. Beef.
>> There's beef everywhere on the menu.
Yeah.
>> Do you respect that?
>> Did you run into any racist cab drivers?
>> They have the best racist cab.
>> We were driven everywhere by our lovely driver, this guy Martin, who was the nicest guy ever. Also, I don't I didn't see a single person of I didn't see a single minority the whole time I was in Ireland.
>> And that's the way we like it.
>> Yeah.
>> Yeah. It's a it's a very white white country.
>> Yeah. I think minorities were like, "Oh, they're still fighting with themselves."
>> Yeah.
>> As recently as like 93.
>> They're like, "We'll stay away."
>> Yeah, that is true. And you said you went to Northern Ireland. Racial breakdown of Ireland. White Irish 77% other Irish 10%.
>> Any other white background? 10 >> 1.5 black. Wow. Interesting. Um did so so did you get into the troubles at all?
Did you did you uh chop it up with anybody about the the raw?
>> A little bit. Um a little bit. Our driver talked to us. I mean, we drove, we sort of circumnavigated Belfast and he pointed out a hotel that apparently was the most bombed out hotel in Europe.
>> Damn.
>> Which is hard to believe cuz that Europe includes like >> Yeah. a lot of places.
>> [ __ ] Yeah. former Soviet, you know, Bosnia type places >> or like World War II, like full cities got >> bombed to [ __ ] >> Maybe he meant Maybe he meant during the troubles. But um I don't know. I I I preferred Ireland to Northern Ireland. I thought that Ireland had a stronger identity and sort of sense of self. And we went out in this great town Kani and there were all these Irish musicians, folk musicians singing this is our country, >> blah blah blah, like all these, you know, nationalistic songs.
>> Yeah.
>> And then I will say that the men of Ireland when they you saw this clip of you saying that they don't drink that much.
wrong.
>> I got I got it from everybody already, >> you know. They're they're they earned their stereotype. They got they got real problems. Yeah.
>> I started to fall into it.
>> Yeah.
>> Yeah. I was like, I can't be here anymore.
>> Like, so we so I was completely wrong.
>> Yeah, man.
>> Yeah. All right. I I can take that.
>> I was I had a feeling.
>> We went to this pub in in Kani and there were guys so drunk that like I was like, why isn't someone kicking them out? So yeah, it's like >> these people are ill. There was a guy who was like you you I thought it was anyone's guess if he was just going to topple over and he's standing at the bar like trying to get their attention to get another drink and they're just ignoring him. But they weren't being like, "Hey man, you got to go home."
Yeah.
>> And he's like knocking [ __ ] over. He's walking by the tables, knocking people's drinks over.
>> Was this in this was in Dublin or this was in Northern Ireland? in Ireland but on the west coast south of Galway.
>> Got it.
>> Kani is a pretty big town. Um and and they were doing like a a hurling match, a big hurling match there on Saturday.
So I think a lot of people had come in for that.
>> And then um and everyone was out and the pubs were packed.
>> Yeah. And uh we were sitting at a table and kind of trying to just keep a little bit of a low profile, but like every once in a while some guy would sit down just like shove us into the booth.
>> Yeah.
>> And and make space for himself, be like, "You're a [ __ ] couple of Yanks, aren't you?"
>> How could he tell?
>> You know, and then he and then they do this thing where like the men they they put they put an arm around you and then they they they're talking so close to your ear. Wow, that explains.
>> And they're like their hot breath is wet on your cheek and it's it's really gay and intimate and uh they're so touchy with each other and they're all doing it. There isn't a single woman in the entire pub.
>> Not one.
>> Not a single woman. It's just me.
>> Like where are the girls at?
>> You feel like you're in the hold of a ship >> and it's like you know >> these pirates.
>> Yeah. And and at one point, oh my god, so um this one guy who was really really drunk and really obnoxious, um he bought we he was trying to talk to Booze. Booze was with us.
>> Yeah. Yeah.
>> And uh I I don't think Booze was giving him a whole lot cuz he was being so annoying.
>> Yeah. So after a while he got up and left and then like 20 minutes went by and he came over with a pint of of not Guinness but of like Heineken or something and he slammed it onto the table. Almost spiked it onto the table with such force that all the beer came out of the top of it and got all over Booze and Brendan Jones. And I watched Booze kind of like turtle a little bit, you know, he shrunk into himself because this was an aggressive affrontive thing that this guy had done. And you could tell he was pissed and kind of looking for >> conflict or whatever.
>> The Irish guy was pissed. Okay, got it.
>> Yeah, he was annoyed that like >> we were nicer to him or something and it but he was like annoying everybody. It felt like we were being hit on by an extremely drunk, aggressive man and all of us were >> dating other people. It was kind of that type of >> energy.
>> And um he slammed the drink down and started saying some like [ __ ] or whatever. And I watched Booze do this and I'm like, "Oh, [ __ ] Here we go."
Like this is going to be bad.
>> And but I saw him shrink and I felt so bad for Booze. And next thing you know, the guy stops talking and all I heard booze go was he goes, "We don't find that funny in America."
>> I was going to say, I was like, I feel like booze would say something.
>> He said that and I was like, "Oh my >> no.
Why would you do that, man? What a thing to say. We don't find that funny in America.
And what did the guy say?
>> I mean, he I >> I'm surprised this didn't erupt into a brawl.
>> Me, too.
>> That's those are fighting words.
>> I think very quickly after that, one of the big bartenders had seen and heard him slam the drink down and that was a bridge too far and he came over and grabbed him and like gently escorted him out of the out of the bar. So, that that did it cuz this guy was getting violent.
>> Yeah.
>> He's on the verge of violence.
>> Yeah. Yeah, you can't have a guy in the bar like that. That's >> for booze to say that cuz I I thought he had been was just cowering and was going to take it and then he [ __ ] >> Yeah, he doesn't seem like the kind of guy though.
>> Wherever you're from, maybe that's cool.
>> But not in America.
>> This table America.
>> I'm like, bro, we are not America here.
>> [ __ ] burn your passport right now.
Let's keep it down. Let's keep a low profile. I'm surprised that this guy wasn't like like ironic or like sarcastic about it like, "Oh, America."
>> No, I think he Well, he knew we were Americans and um had had decided he didn't like us.
>> Yeah, >> the beer thing was more It it sounds ridiculous cuz it sounds like a peace offering, but it was He might as well have dumped it on our heads.
>> Yeah. I mean, if you slam it down that hard, it's that's quite the uh scene.
>> Mhm. Who was the mouthpiece for your group in a situation like that?
>> To be honest with you, when I saw Booze like kind of getting nervous like that, I felt really bad. And there was a guy that this dude was with >> and I yelled across to that guy straight into the path of the mean guy and I went, "Are you with this guy?"
>> Yeah.
>> I went, "Are you are you with him?" And the guy was like, "What?"
>> And I was like, "Are you with him?"
meaning like take care of your man, dude.
>> Yeah, >> this is a [ __ ] problem developing.
>> And uh it turned out that that guy was his brother.
>> He didn't give a [ __ ] >> No, not only that, but I probably insulted him.
>> Or is like like you [ __ ] deal with him.
>> Yeah.
>> Yeah. Oh my god, that's hilarious. How are the other uh Foreplay boys at the at the pubs? Like I know that like I've I've had a a drink or two with Frankie, but uh last time I was out with with Trent, like he wasn't really much of a drinker. Does he drink?
>> Um on this evening, I mean, we all we all, you know, drank the Kool-Aid, so to speak. We all got into the spirit of of Guinness and and you know, this was the one weekend that we had there.
>> Yeah.
>> So, it was a Friday. It was early in the trip. None of us were so shattered yet.
Uh, and we we knew like that's the tourist that's sightseeing in Ireland is going drinking at a pub and listening to live Irish folk music.
>> Yeah, definitely.
>> Um, and so we did that and and everyone was on board. It was really fun.
>> I want to hear more about when when people started breaking, when people started getting shattered.
>> Yeah, I want to hear more. I want to get more into this.
>> Yeah. I mean, the thing >> you definitely got a little bit a little bit of a shattered vibe right now.
>> Yeah. Yeah, just just a hint.
>> You've been to war.

>> Yeah. They got to they got to get rid of their like stubborn ways with that [ __ ] They're just doing everything wrong.

>> Yeah. You know, in Ireland it's it's warm for five days of the year.
>> Yeah. True.
>> And by the way, one of those days we we caught a record day in Ireland while we were there.
>> How hot was it?

>> Yeah. But it's 12%.
>> Oh, that's nice.
>> So, it's significant. And I wanted to do it.
>> You spent $20,000. I didn't spend that much, but I spent a good amount. Um, and I uh I I went to the thing and, you know, put my receipts under. The machine wasn't working. Went to the window and the woman was like, "None of these." And we're speaking in French and my French is good.
>> Yeah. Yeah.
>> So, uh, I'm like, you know, explaining.
I'm like, "The machine wasn't working."
She was looking takes the forms and she's like none of these forms have been designated to have credit card returns.
You needed to have that done at the store. And I was like, well, the people at the store said everything was fine and that this was all I needed for the forms. And she was like, she was acting as if I was a [ __ ] [ __ ] >> Yeah. Yeah.
>> Right. And I'm like, I don't know what to tell you. She was like, well, now that you haven't designated that, at best you'll get cash returns in euros, so you need to go to the cash window.
And I was like, fine. So then I went to the cash window and the guy was like, "No, you're all set. You've scanned the forms. You'll get it back on your credit card statement within 2 weeks." And I was like, "That woman at that other thing said that." And he was like, "She doesn't know what she's talking about."
So then I walked out and I couldn't resist.
>> You went back.
>> I got in line.
>> I got back in line to tell her she was wrong.
>> That's crazy.
>> I waited >> Yeah. for the the moment to be like, "By the way, I spoke to that guy." And he was like, "You don't know what the [ __ ] you're talking about >> in French." She said, "Yeah."
>> And she goes, I remember she was like, "Well, I'll agree to disagree with him."
She said it in French.
>> And I was like, "You work together.
You are colleagues."
>> Also, it doesn't seem like it's something that you could disagree with.
Like, it seems like there's just a right answer and a wrong answer.
>> Okay. But here's what's happened.
>> So, she was right.
>> Hold on. Oh no.
>> I had I had four receipts.
>> I've gotten the VAT back for one of them so far.
>> Oh my god, that's brutal.

>> But I think weirdly they have like one of the highest profit margins or like they they make >> I'm not surprised to go to the bathroom.
>> That's crazy.
>> I mean, you got to pay to go to the bathroom in Europe though, right? At a lot of those bathrooms.
>> Uh I didn't see that. I feel like I when I went there, there was like nothing was public. Like you got to buy something.
>> Oh, maybe in cafes. True. Yeah.
>> And also they have the bathrooms are co-ed, right?
>> At a lot of places like taking a [ __ ] next to a girl taking a [ __ ] >> Oh, >> yeah.
>> Well, what I did see is that every like large men's bathroom that I went into, every single one, there was a woman from Thailand like mopping.
>> Yeah. Yeah.
>> Not Not like Hello.
>> Yeah. just in there.
>> Is there anyone in here? Like she's just in there while you're just like pissing on the floor.
>> Yeah, that's [ __ ] crazy.
>> So, what do you pay for?
>> No ice, though. We're AC.
>> That's so insane. Have ice >> in the in the security line. The I There was a a guy, an older man. There was a man in a suit, a full suit, suit and tie designating that that there were two security lines to go to.
>> Yeah. And he was just pointing like, "Go to that one. Go to this one. Go to that one. Go to this one."
>> And in front of me, an older couple, old woman and an old man, '7s woman goes to the far line. And then he points for the man to go to the near line, but he ignored it and went to the far line.
>> Yeah.
>> And they're French. And the guy in the suit went like this. He was like, >> and then he goes over and puts his hand on the man's shoulder.
>> Yeah. And he's like, "I told you to get in that line." And the old man was like, "Well, that's my wife. I want to travel with her."
>> Yeah.
>> And the guy goes, "You fans, you need to ask."
>> And I was like, "Are you [ __ ] kidding me? You're treating like a French passenger like he's a kindergarter over line allocation and he wants to just travel with his wife." I thought that was really patronizing >> and and just telling about how their their culture is.
>> Yeah. They were just dicks. So when I got on the flight to Ireland and then got off in Ireland, I felt like I had gone from North Korea to South Korea.
>> You were like in like Argo when he's uh >> he enters Turkey.
>> Yeah.
>> And they're like they're they're serving booze now.
>> Yeah. Exactly.
It was so nice in Ireland. So kind, so welcoming. speaking English now, you know.
>> That's great.
>> It was cool.
>> So, the last the two times ago I went to France, I was like I would try to use a little bit of French >> and people were I felt were were dicks to me. And then the most recent time I I didn't speak a [ __ ] word of French and I thought I got way more respect.
>> Yeah.
>> That just like expecting them to speak English and just being like, "Yeah, I don't know. Like I'm visiting."
>> I don't know why that >> throw your throw your worst at me. Like I'm I'm I'm here to have a good time and spend money.
>> Yeah. I don't know why that would be something that they would care about.
Like they say that like in some countries like people like if you try to use their language they get annoyed. But it's like wouldn't you be like I was walking down the street and someone came up to me speaking Spanish I would just keep walking. I'd be like I don't know.
>> Well, I just know that like I live in a touristy area and if somebody is trying their best to speak with me, I'm going to be very nice to them. And I So I just like can't like let it abide that it's just like Yeah. Like that's just how they are. Like you just have to be rude to someone who tries to speak your your language. Yeah. I just feel like they're going the step to try to make it easier for you.
>> Like if you're going up to someone trying to speak their native language.
>> Yes.
>> It's like more of like them trying to help you out.
>> Yeah.
>> While asking a question >> now >> rather than going up and being like, "Yo, where where is uh the Lou at?"
>> And you're like, "You [ __ ] idiot. You [ __ ] don't know. You have to ask."
But conversely, imagine if someone from like Mexico came up to you in the streets of Brooklyn.
>> Yeah.
>> And was like speaking to you in Spanish asking for directions.
>> Yeah. I would be like, I don't know.
>> Yeah, I know. But if you did that, if someone That's We're more likely to be annoyed in America if someone spoke to us in another language. We'll get mad about that.
>> Yeah, I guess that is true.
>> It's like we don't speak that here.
>> Yes. at Gino's Cheeseest Stakes in Philly, it used to be like order in English only, a big sign on the >> But I think the French, especially in like um touristy areas, like pride themselves on being able to speak English.
>> That's my point, though. It's the opposite there. Exactly.
>> It's like don't speak the native language, >> right? Don't assume that we're too dumb to understand what your dumb ass is saying.
>> Yeah.
>> Did uh >> French is sacred.
>> Yeah. I really >> That's how they feel. That's how they feel.
>> Yeah. Like you probably speak beautiful French and they hear like the the lightest American accent and they're like this [ __ ] I'm telling you it's not even the the It's just the fact that I have red hair and I'm clearly not French.
>> Yeah.
>> That makes them annoyed that I'm around.
>> Yeah. It's just cigarettes and have like a sunken chest.
>> Like it's such a big city. Why would >> the most touristy city I've ever been to? So maybe that's part of the problem.
I don't know.
>> I just can't imag That's like moving to New York and going to Time Square and being like, "What the [ __ ] happened to this city?
>> There's a [ __ ] Elmo."
>> Yeah. Transplants everywhere, you know?
It's like Yeah.
>> But also like um from uh 8 years ago when France won the World Cup, we were over there and like as they're winning, they're like driving through the [ __ ] street. It's like the Wild Boys and everybody hanging out of the cars. None of them are like white native uh like French people. France is like uh especially right now like there's an influx of all different types of like cultures in France.
>> Yeah. But they don't like that. There's they're they're the most racist towards like uh >> Algerians immigrants of any country. I believe they're pretty up there. They have like full-blown race wars in the streets.
>> Yeah.
>> And it's all you know Yeah. It's all like their former colonies. Yeah, makes sense.
>> Yeah, we taught you how to speak France and now you're coming to speak France here. Yeah.
>> Uh what did uh what did you eat and what did you buy over there? Did you cop a suit for the Marthur's Vineyard wedding?
I know you were thinking about getting something custom.
>> No, I couldn't I couldn't uh I went into a custom shirt shop called um Well, I can't remember. Yeah.
>> Yeah. It's like very famous, but I can't remember exactly what it was called, but the guy was like, "Yeah, you know, if we were to do a custom shirt, you have to come in four times through the process of building it in order for us to make sure it's >> that's too many >> molding correctly over and this would take like eight weeks.
>> My body would look different over the >> Bro, I'm telling you, I I am That's the other thing. I was like, I can't get fit for a [ __ ] suit right now."
>> Yeah. I'm not going to look this way in a year or two. Right now, my shoulders and my I'm just bigger than I've ever been.
>> So, you think you're going to lose weight?
>> I'll lose muscle. I see.
>> I'm going to I'm going to fall apart.
I'll get injured and then I'll be like get, you know, riding.
>> You're going to get injured.
>> I'm going to start riding a Pelaton and then I'm going to just shrink. That's just going to happen. That's what always happens.
>> That is really what happens to people.
>> That's what always happens to me. I have to resort to cardio to get my exercise.
And >> I feel like that happens to every like so many people. They get big and then they get hurt and then they just start running and then they get super skinny.
>> I've been through this many times. This is what's going to happen.
>> Stop. Well, what do you think the injury is going to be?
>> Shoulders.
>> Well, just take it easy on the shoulders then.
>> Can't >> like the shoulder is a pretty big in like that's a bad injury.
>> Every day is boulder shoulder day.
>> You're definitely going to get injured.
>> I can't ignore boulder shoulders. I know you're bailing hay out in [ __ ] France.
>> Yeah, that's it.
>> Yeah. What were the workouts like out there?
>> Uh, well, in Paris, I got a couple in my hotel done. They didn't have enough kettle bells, >> so I was just throwing dumbbells around, like cleaning dumbbells and stuff, but um >> I did I did manage to complete the Rogan uh kettle bell workout um Saturday morning before I went to Arthur's Vineyard uh with 53s, which I was pretty excited about.
>> That's insane. That's two. That was I did it with two Rogans, one in each hand.
>> Damn, that's crazy.
>> Wait, no, it's not. It's not simultaneous. I'm sorry. I just had 53, but you're doing Well, you do the Renegade Rose with him anyway.
>> The Renegade Rose.
>> That's [ __ ] insane.
>> The Rogan's heavy. I can't imagine doing two.
>> What did you >> Can't imagine doing one to be honest.
>> What did you eat and where'd you stay?
No, I'm not I'm not done.
>> Yeah, I'm not.
>> I need to live a bit. I feel like I have I get to travel. I've saw so many things that literally not a single thing in my life has changed since the last time you saw me.
>> He got a new a new shirt.
>> I haven't seen you since you won. Since [ __ ] Bush won.
>> Yeah, we're on to Paris now, unfortunately.
>> Yeah, he's about to be in Paris.
>> Are you going to go?
>> No. No.
>> Why not?
>> Too expensive >> for you.
>> For everybody?
>> Not for you.
>> The team can't go.
>> No, the team will go, but they'll go by themselves. We'll We'll send them there and put them in like a hotel.
>> Somebody needs to be there. We're going to We're thinking about sending one of our guys to go and just like cover everything and make sure that the boys are behaving.
>> Why don't I go?
>> It's a great idea.
>> I can translate for them.
>> It's a great idea.
>> I mean, we'd be we'd be thrilled.
>> I saw some of them. The way they speak, they weren't as sort of monoabic as I thought.
>> Well, they're on better spoken than you led led me to believe.
>> Where did you see them speak? Like >> it was in in in the clip the the video you put out >> like the Yes. Like the interviews of them and stuff. Yeah. Yeah. You got to hear them talk just like in a casual conversation cuz you want you would you would not be able to understand a word they were saying.
>> Really?
>> Yeah. The way they talk to translate to you and then you translate to friends.
>> Yeah. That's a good idea.
>> Yeah. The way they talk, the things that they like the way the words they use, it's like a foreign language. What words did you pick up? Similar to him talking about like and uh we >> I mean the biggest thing is like they just say that they're they're checked.
That's the biggest one.
>> Checked.
>> Checked.
>> Checked. That means tired.
>> Yeah. It just means they give up.
>> Oh, >> like they're done. I'm checked. I'm checked.
>> They're very sensitive.
>> They are.
>> You got to treat them like you got to make sure they don't get checked. Oh man, that would >> But they get checked at the littlest things. You could ask them the wrong question and they're like, "That just checked me out for the whole day." And you're like, "Oh my god, I don't know what I did."
>> Damn, that sucks.
>> Yeah. Yeah. So, just got to walk on eggshells.
>> But then again, I think there is something to be said that if you are if you have found a way to make a living playing video games >> Yeah.
>> there's no reason to think that the world is ever going to be hard.
>> Yeah. Well, I mean, I think they like they all like they have made a living playing video games, but they all want to get to the pro league so they can actually make like a real living playing video games.
>> I get that. But they're not going to be willing like they're on the track.
>> Yeah.
>> To the point where like if someone was like, "Hey man, you need to take out the trash." They'd be like, "I'm I'm too checked for that."
>> Yeah. No, that doesn't get done.
>> There's like a 66 dude who like is like on a track to make the NBA. He's like a top prospect or something. It's like, yeah, you're going to probably make the NBA and you can have people do stuff for you.
>> Yeah. They also just don't know anything. Like they they only know COD.
They only know the game.
>> Yeah. I >> But I mean, it makes sense. Like they've their whole entire life they've been like they to right today they're probably playing the game for like 12 hours today. So it's like there's not really much other opportunity to know other stuff.
>> Exactly.
>> Yeah.
>> Yeah. You've you've the world has forced them into a chair. Yeah.
>> And to face a screen devoid of human interaction. Yeah. I mean, they're interacting. I mean, they talk to each other nonstop, but it's not very >> about COD.
>> No, they talk about I mean, they're in their Discord the entire day.
>> Oh, >> just chopping it up.
>> Okay.
>> But, you know, then something will happen and they'll get checked and then >> Yeah.
>> time to reset.

>> Honestly, I need to get into the Internet Invitational. Ever since they said that that prize pool was 4 million 4 million?
>> No.
>> Yeah.
>> Are you [ __ ] with me that you didn't see that?
>> No. 4 million.
>> 4 million bucks.
>> Oh my god.
>> Yeah. I I did the math already. I presume it's going to be similar format and split.
>> You would walk away with what, like 750 >> after taxes and it'd be866.
>> Oh my god. Are you got to just stop quit the podcast, >> bro?
>> This is your last episode on boy, we're putting all of your funds into golf.
>> Yeah, I know. I know.
>> We We'll like go to the course and like Yeah. Whatever you need, coach you. We don't want you to be checked. We just want to make sure that you're like dialed.
>> Yeah. You're on the Bush schedule. Now, the thing is is that I think we're going to have unreal unrealistic expectations given that I won it last year. I think it's it's even less likely that I win it this time >> because there's a bigger field.
>> Yeah, that's I mean is how did they get 4 million? Is it Dave putting it in or is it like do they have a bigger sponsor attached to it or what? the the you like >> or I guess the views last year >> you the what >> you got this >> what a brand should pay to sponsor this thing I don't know that there's a high enough number >> I mean it's like a real >> imagine imagine if you put like 50 of the biggest influencers in a field in in one room >> and then filmed the the main product and then every single one of them individually posted in this sort of creating this spiderweb of >> like viral neverending [ __ ] promotion. All of which has >> images and stamps of of brands on it.
>> Formul might be light.
>> It It's It's truly like the best thing you could sponsor at least in that space of anything ever.
>> Yeah, definitely. I mean that's like that like we looked up what was the Masters payout? Well, the the whole pool for the Masters is like I think 17 or something, but the top goes to it gets like 3.7 or fourish, I don't know, something like that.
>> I mean, that's like you're on the winner gets four and a half, but >> not not too far off.
>> Or like it's like come come in six in the Masters or like win that invitational.
>> Mhm.
>> Yeah. And aren't there it's like more it pays more than like every Asian tour stop or something like that or like there's like it it there's several >> pro things that it it eclipses fully which is amazing. S don't you wish like >> like you have a good golf swing. You used to play golf and like all you did was stop.
>> Yeah. But the the the upping the prize to 4 million like the competition is going to go up. They don't have enough beter blockers in the world for you.
There are there will still be people of your caliber in the tournament though towards the end.
>> Yeah. Yeah.
>> The the semifinals last year had you know Josh Richards who actually played quite well but was very new to golf.
>> Yeah.
>> Uh as well as a couple of other people who you know it was it's not the way it works in the team building and stuff like that. there's necessarily going to be lower players that are making it to the end.
>> Yeah, I mean I'm mind I'm mind blown by that.
>> Yeah, I know. It's pretty insane.
>> I was the I haven't really been on online much this weekend, but that that is insane.
>> How much of the field did you guys talk a lot about what the field is while you were over there? Like who's going to be in it? Because I would like you to guess about it, but if you know, I don't want to spoil it.
>> Oh, what? Who's going to be in the invitation?
>> Who's going to be in it? Like >> doesn't that come out today?
>> Well, Jason Williams got his invite last week.
>> Yeah, but doesn't like has it been released who's like playing?
>> I don't know.
>> I want to say it comes out today, right?
>> I think the whole list will come out today, but like some people have said it early.
>> Got it. So, we can talk about this, right?
>> Yeah. Yeah. I mean, people have been showing their >> invitations, so I presume >> imitations are sick.
>> A dove flies out of a box.
>> I mean, it's not far off.
>> Yeah. What? Uh, so is there anybody that's like, whoa, like he's doing it?
>> I mean, in truth, I I don't actually know a lot of the people that they added.
>> Is LeBron doing it?
>> That's the big question. That's my question. Is LeBron doing it?
>> LeBron's not doing it.
>> Not enough money for him >> or he's just not good enough. He probably just didn't make the cut, >> dude. I bet LeBron makes $866,000 a day.
You don't want another You want to double that in a day.
>> If it took him a full week to make that, he'd be like, I'm losing money right now.
>> Yeah, but he every minute I'm here, though.
>> I'm I'm costing my enterprise.
>> I mean, yeah, this will be the closest that anyone in this I mean, obviously outside of people that are actually pros will This is the closest you'll get to playing in like a real like PGA tournament. I mean, there's no other tournament on the planet that is paying this much for the people that are in it.
>> Correct.
>> It's crazy.
>> And will the same people like do you think that Gruden and Wit like and all all of them will be back?
>> I think so.
>> So, no one's going to get really like uh classed out of it from the bar stool side.
>> I don't think so.
>> Do you know what I mean?
>> I mean, this is going to like this has like you you must be thinking about like training already.
>> Yeah, I have.
>> I feel like this is going to up the stakes. I'm not good right now. I'm I'm way worse right now than I was when I played in it last year.
>> Yeah, we're going to >> It takes me the summer to like [ __ ] work on my short game and [ __ ] Actually, >> you want me to move upstate for the summer so we can all just like get you in the right head space.
>> I'll bring my family.
>> Yeah, I'm fully I'm up totally fine just packing it up and moving up there.
>> No, no, no, no.
>> Do you think any anybody >> We need you close to the course.
>> I know. I know. I I'm going to be working on it. I'm going to be dedicating your neighbors. Could we maybe like uh sublet their place for the summer and just like kind of have like a home base training facility, you know, uh like diet, dietitionian, stretching, pliability, mobility, all the stuff that you take to win this.
>> I should probably lay off the shoulder stuff because I think that's actually affecting my flexibility in my swing.
>> We're putting an end to that immediately.
>> My shoulders are getting in the way of my golf swing.
>> We're going to have you podcasting from a pelon.
>> Yeah. Yeah, >> with like the [ __ ] wires all attached to you sticky >> oxygen deprivation mask.
>> That's great.
>> And what course is it at? Where is it again?
>> It's at Big Cedar again. Same place.
>> Which was what state?
>> Uh it's in Missouri.
>> Damn.
>> Damn you salivating. What kind of sponsors are we talking to? Maybe we could grease the wheels. Like how could we cheat?
>> There's got to be a way to cheat or at least get like a better team.
rangefinders or >> you know what I'm interested in is this.
So last year Dave had all those sort of side bet propositions that everyone turned down.
>> Yeah.
>> Um but the truth is that as you're playing there should be moments where the uh like value proposition of that outweighs not taking it and vying for the ultimate prize.
>> Yeah.
>> Like let's put it this way. If there's a scenario put another way >> mathematically I I I'm not good at math but I know for the that it should be the case that if D if there's like whatever say 16 players left.
>> Yeah. and you win a match and you knock, I don't know, >> two players out of it or like four players out of it or something like that. And then Dave says, "Okay, like you can go on to the final 12 or you can replay a whole winner gets 250 grand."
There's a scenario where you're supposed to take that.
>> Oh, I see what you mean. because you have a 50/50 shot at winning 250 grand or you have like a one in six of making 866. I don't know exactly where, you know, hopefully someone can elucidate the the proper way of looking at that, but there is a number where you're supposed to accept that early bid.
>> Yeah. So it's So what you're saying is like is that they didn't do that last year and people should do that this year?
>> Uh we should consider it more. I think that the way he offered it last year, I don't know that any of those offers actually were >> like worth it >> worth it. Um, but but I suspect that this year they will be.
>> I'm sure he's got a >> I want to know I want to know the calculus so that I can convince my teammates like we are supposed to take this >> and then watch us lose and have them be furious with me.
>> Let's make that clear right now.
>> Dude, you're not taking anything.
>> You're taking the four. If you if you have if it's you and like a teammate, right, and you've won your match and you are going on to the final 32 players.
>> Yeah.
>> And Dave's like, "Okay, you can do that or you can replay this hole against that team for $100,000.
You're supposed to take that. I'm pretty sure you have a 5050 at 50 grand, 100 grand if it's two, I don't know. You're supposed to take that.
>> Yeah, I guess.
>> As opposed to a what? A one a three in 32 of a million >> of of 866 of of 1.7.
>> But people also have the diluted self-confidence that they're going to or you want to play for the big prize. You know, nobody wants to take it's like deal or no deal. Like you don't want to take the consolation prize. You're like, I want to get the big money. Big money.
>> But you're forgetting that you could still win that $200,000 and keep going on. Yes.
>> Oh, so if you win, you keep going.
>> You keep going and you get the money.
>> Yeah, definitely take that.
>> Yeah, but nobody did because everyone thought we've worked hard to to to put ourselves through.
>> Yeah, >> we're not going to put that at risk now.
But it's just another hole.
>> Just another hole.
>> Was it like um was it like a somewhat of like a miracle last year that someone from that you won like a bar stool person won?
>> It was him, Beef, and Frankie in the final. So it was like >> but like would it was there a chance that this year like would there is there a chance that like some random [ __ ] >> for sure none of the Bob does guys >> cold cuts might be walking away with [ __ ] 4 mil in the pocket >> to be honest with you I I hope that he does. I I I I want there to be more like uh Bob does guys. One of the big problems last year was that um all of the Bob does guys were on one side and all of the Barcel guys were on the other side.
>> So on the first day all the Bob Does guys were eliminated. Yeah.
>> And and you want to hold their audience in the tournament as long as you can.
>> Yeah. They should split that up.
>> But dude, there's I mean there's gigantic stars even since last year like Grant Horvat has grown hugely like all these people have >> become bigger and bigger and bigger.
>> So is there like who who who would you say is like the biggest addition or you don't know?
>> That's the problem. There's all there's like a couple guys from like South Africa, Korea that are huge stars. There's some guy named Ruffles, I think, who made the cut at a PGA Tour event recently. Like, he's a legitimate [ __ ] pro.
>> Yeah.
>> And you're like, well, okay. Well, then >> why are you named after a bag of chips then if you're a pro? Why are you Joey Cole cuts Ruffles?
>> I think he'll be better than Lunch Brad Dy.
>> Yeah, that's kind of weird. I don't know how I feel about that. Well, he's a YouTuber and went into one of the tournaments and then did well. So, he's not technically a >> a tour pro like just like on the tour and he's like, I'm going to go just win this 4 mil real quick. And then >> I think he got a sponsor's exemption, but Brad's also gotten one of those uh for a tournament coming up.
>> Damn, >> that's crazy. Yeah, that's going to be so awesome.
>> Yeah, that's going to be really, really good.
>> Do we want to plug Neighbors? What's going on here?
>> They give us hats. They send us hats.
>> Awesome. Shout out Neighbors.
>> That's one It's Harry's new favorite hat. Team, what's the shirt?
>> Team Spirit.
>> Holy [ __ ] >> Counter Strike.
>> Oh, nice.
>> Shout out Don.
>> Cool.
>> The goat.
>> Um, >> Trent just showed up at the office.
>> Barcel Trent.
>> Did he?
>> He's here.
>> I don't know. Did you get like an email?
>> I just got a text like breaking news. I thought someone got shot or something like that.
>> Oh [ __ ] >> Is that a big deal? I feel like Trent's here a decent amount. Not ever.
>> They see him once in a while.
>> You don't? Uh, I had an awesome time with Trent. Oh, >> of course.
>> I loved hanging out with him. Trent's the man.
>> He's so positive. He's so fun.
>> And he also just is a man who will not suffer any sort of disruption of what he wants to do, but he's not annoying about it.
>> No. Like, what do you mean?
>> It's like, hey, we're all going out to dinner. He's like, >> go.
>> No.
>> Yeah.
>> And he just orders Dominoes and eats it in his room.
>> Domino's? Irish Dominoes.
>> He had it a couple times.
>> It's probably great. And it's like nobody's going to give him a hard time about it cuz we all know he's an immovable object.
>> I found it inspiring.
>> Yeah. He's told me about he told us about that when we were in uh Florida that he does that. He like doesn't like they'll be like we're going out. He's like I'm not going.
>> Yeah. I'm not period.
>> I'm not. I mean, >> no. He's just not going to come.
>> Yeah.
>> And it's like Yeah. No, nobody's even mad about it. I suffer so much from the guilt of saying no to people >> Yeah.
>> about things. And I think that you have to just push through a few layers of making people upset until you reach that cruising altitude of not being reliable.
>> That's me.
>> Yes.
>> Yeah.
>> Well, I still get frustrated with you.
>> Yeah, but that's cuz I have to be reliable.
>> No, you wish you were Trent. You don't have that.
>> I don't think I've reached that level of >> that that aura.
>> It's almost charming.
>> Yeah.
>> Like, no, don't don't bother him. He needs to go eat Dominoes. And >> so did he go out at all with you guys?
Like did he go out and drank at all?
>> He did a few times. But here's an example. That night we went out in Colani where we had all those [ __ ] crazy experiences.
>> I was so tired that uh I went back to my uh hotel room and napped and all of them went out. And I texted them and I was like, I'm going to take a power nap.
This was at like 8:45 p.m. that I went to sleep >> and I set an alarm for 25 minutes and they all took bets. They were like, "There's no chance Francis makes it out."
>> Yeah.
>> And Rigs, to his credit, was like, "He's going to be here."
>> And I set my alarm. It went off. I woke up. I was delirious.
>> But I was like, I think all of them made it out. I have to go.
>> Yeah.
>> Showered, showed up. They were all so pumped. Wow. He's here. You know, and we had a great night.
>> Trent.
>> Trent was there.
>> Wow. He fought through.
>> Yeah.
>> What an absolute beast. We ate a lot of ice cream. We went out for ice.
>> I was going to ask what the desserts were over there cuz I know that he is a dessert fiend.
>> Yeah, he found cheesecake. He got on He went on a cheesecake tear.
>> Found cheesecake. Like it's a precious stone.
>> Yeah, he started finding like that that they made cheesecake a lot of places and that was what he was going for.
>> Is it good?
>> I didn't end up I had a bite of one of his that was very good. Yeah, the ice cream left a lot to be desired, I thought.
>> Yeah.
>> Mhm.
>> It's interesting cuz they have all those cows. They have the cows and the beef.
>> Yeah. They just don't make it as well as we do.
>> We're geniuses with >> They don't got that secret sauce. Corn syrup.
>> They don't have the milk fat.
>> Yeah. We're putting in it.
>> 25% milk fat like the crearyy up at Penn State. The milk fat is so high there that it can't even be FDA approved.
>> It's [ __ ] not even a food. It's not even classified as a food cuz it's so fatty.
>> So nice >> milk fat.
>> Nothing like some nice milk fat.
Um, we got to bang out another episode later on. So, uh, should we call this one?
>> What are we at?
>> Never mind.
>> No, sir.
>> I thought that we were over an hour.
>> You thought wrong.

>> He said that uh he said he's still trying to get Braun.
>> Oh, really?
>> Yeah. Yeah.

>> Oh, you the fi the team in the final.
No, no, they're all back.
>> They're all back. Yeah. Love that >> Douche is back.
>> Love that.
>> I think that I presume that I will be knocked out >> early from a karmic perspective. I won the first year. There's no chance that I'm going deep this year.
>> Back to back style.
>> I'm excited to ride around in a cart with Douche and just provide commentary on what's happening with him because you know that that was how he made a big name for himself. In addition to playing >> Apex, >> Apex as much as he did, he would live stream and comment >> as he drank heavily on >> tournaments >> on Apex or just anything.
>> I'm not sure which game it was, but that was a big thing. Like, >> yeah, >> he would get super drunk and just talk [ __ ] about whatever was happening.
>> Well, can we do that from the Boyd Dad channel? If you get smoked, can we just like have a boy dad uh have somebody follow you around and put out put out >> Sounds like this is kind of Douche's thing though. No.
>> Yeah. Well, like >> Oh, with video games.
>> Douche doesn't own commenting on things.
We can't just like crack some jokes and and like follow you around and get a quick million views for the Boy Dad channel.
>> Yeah, I'm not against it.
>> Francis does it and we just have like a crazy a wacky super cut.
>> You know, you know, we can't put it out until the whole thing comes out. Yeah, >> of course. I'm not saying live. Just like a a wacky super cut. Mac was supposed to shoot it last year.
>> I am totally down.
>> He's shooting it this year.
>> You're coming, Mac?
>> Yeah. Yeah, I'll be there. But I'll be with J Will.
>> Oh, hell yeah.
>> Oh, he has his own guy, >> of course.
>> I don't know.
>> Well, maybe I'll maybe I'll be in a cart with J Will.
>> That would be awesome.
>> I'd like to play with him.
>> That'd be huge.
>> I invited him to come play Bon with me both this week and next week, and he turned me bound down for both.
>> It's cuz his daughter's in there.
>> Lot lot going on with softball right now.
Yeah, turn down is a turndown. I mean like you don't get unlimited bites at the apple. Bon is the one. He was coupooing about Bayon, though. He was saying how [ __ ] amazing and beautiful it is.
He was actually pocket watching you. He was like, "How much do you think it costs for Francis to be at Bayon?" Whoa, whoa, whoa.
>> I joined 9 years ago. It's like legitimately onethird of the price of what it is now.
>> Really?
>> Mhm.
>> Damn. It's an investment. Can you sell your spot?
>> It used to be that way. You paid a bond, >> like a taxi medallion.
>> Yeah. And then when you left the club, you would get your bond back if another member joined.
>> Oh, that's nice. Little security deposit.
>> Yeah, exactly.
>> I got my full security deposit back.
>> Really?
>> Yep. Pretty huge.
>> How's your place?
>> It's nice.
>> Are you feeling happy about it?
>> Yeah, I like it. It's nice.
>> You don't feel removed?
>> No, not at all. Do you feel um unmotivated to come into the city to do spots >> given how far away you live now?
>> No. The train's so easy >> because I was I went and looked at an apartment in the West Village.
>> Oh, really?
>> Yesterday.
>> Oh, was it mine? My old one.
>> That would be hilarious.
>> Wouldn't that be funny?
>> Yeah.
>> Just to fill it with sand.
>> Fill it with sand.
>> That would be devastating.
Oh my god, that guy.
>> Reverse it on me.
>> You So, are you going to move to the west village?
>> Oh my god. You have to fill it with sand. I'll go halves on you if we can fill it with sand.
>> Yeah, I know a good sand guy.
>> The ceilings are too tall. You guys won't be able to >> No, you got to you have to win the invitational just so you can fill it with sand.
>> It would probably cost the whole thing.
>> Sign a 100redyear lease and fill it with sand. I mean, it's a lot of sand.
>> Mhm.
>> You're about to be back in the West Village. You're leaving Brooklyn behind.
>> No.
>> Crazy.
>> Crazy.
>> I was I want to live on work island like that.
>> I thought about it because I thought to myself that being in this city would make would remove this barrier that I currently have of of going to do spots >> that just it's been so fatiguing. I can't get home after work and then going back in. It's just a nightmare.
>> Yeah, it's awful.
>> So, I end up staying in the city and like working out and a [ __ ] Yeah, just >> fitness burning money and >> Yeah, I'll be honest. I've kind of been on a little bit of a sbatical um since uh I filmed the tape. I taped the special and then we won the champs or we won the tournament.
>> Yeah.
>> I didn't do a single thing for like two weeks straight.
>> I love it.
>> Yeah. So, >> I'm kind of >> I've done a couple spots since I moved out there and it's not bad.
>> Also, like the stand is not far. It's like 20 minutes away.
>> Oh, fair enough.
>> Yeah. It's like not even that much further than my old apartment was.
>> What are you talking about?
>> On the train.
>> But you don't understand. You don't know how the train works?
>> Well, I just know like >> it's faster than cars.
I just know where your old apartment was and like if it was a map like it's like right here and now you live up here and you're saying that this is the same distance as this.
>> I mean it's probably like Yeah. I mean obviously it's not the same distance.
It's much further but in terms of getting thereus there was no way to get from my apartment to there.
>> City bike.
>> Yeah, I know. But no like there was no train or anything. So it was either Uber which was like >> Wait, that's not true. Yes, >> you could have walked to 14th and taken the L across to Union Square.
>> Yeah, but you you would know that that is in that would be an insane thing to do. It's like a 20minut walk from my apartment to 14th.
>> Okay, I'm just changing the narrative that there is no way for you to get across the city.
>> Well, >> or bus. What about a bus?
>> I'm not taking the bus to the [ __ ] stand.
>> How many things do we need to say for you to actually admit?
>> I I know the route. The route was not a realistic route, which is why I would always bike or Uber or walk.
>> You Uber a lot.
>> No.
>> Every time I walk out of the office at the same time as you, you're getting into an Uber.
>> I used to Uber >> and I'm like, "Wow, this guy's got it."
>> Yeah.
>> I used to Uber when I >> You would be able to fly to Paris if you didn't Uber so much.
>> I used to Uber when I lived in the West Village cuz it was very inexpensive.
It's like a $10 Uber to go home and I'd be like, >> "It's also a 15 minute walk." The whole point of living in the West Village is so you can walk everywhere.
>> 15minute walk. Try 30, brother.
>> From here to my old apartment. 30.
>> You did live in the south part of West Village. Yeah, that's true.
>> Um, >> but I was I was looking at an apartment very close to your old place.
>> Yeah.
>> On Barrow Street.
>> Oh, yeah. It's like the next street over.
>> Yeah. But honestly, it would be 20% more for me to move there for a smaller apartment than my current apartment.
Yeah.
>> Think about the breakfast by salt cure that you could get every day.
>> Yeah. You want to wait in that line like you're [ __ ] getting Coachella tickets, >> bro. The lines right now. I went to one of those fro yo place. But I went on a on like a [ __ ] I don't know Monday at noon.
>> That's a psycho move.
>> But there were only six people in front of me.
>> But also just like out of principle, how good can frozen yogurt be?
>> I'll tell you what.
>> No good.
>> Oh, I've had some really good frozen yogurt.
>> That good? It was that good? It's the one that has the [ __ ] pistachio kind of crunch on top. That that now >> I will say if there there's an amount of people where it's not worth it.
>> What is that amount?
>> Seven 20.
>> So you're you're waiting in the 18 person line for that fro yo. That's how good it was.
>> Yeah.
>> Wow.
>> Yeah. I would >> I bike past that one every day and I'm like >> Yeah, I know. I go I used to live next to the what's it called? One the the one that you just said salt skewer.
>> Breakfast by salt skewer.
>> Yeah, I used to live on that street.
>> What is that?
>> Breakfast. There's one on uh is it Atlantic? No, it's not Atlantic. It's like deeper into Brooklyn. But there's but it's like >> incredible pancakes. Like tiny pancakes my street. My old street a mother.
>> It's like alak cart breakfast and you get like a bunch of different things and it's [ __ ] fantastic. But also there is and I would do the >> b herd of sheep outside every time.
>> I used to walk the line is literally like no joke it's like 50 people long and it's not like you're not waiting for one person to get fro yo you're waiting for the people in front of you like you're seeing the people in front of you like they're going to eat a full meal wait on a server >> like and then we'll move on.
>> You get line dudes for it. You can pay $55 to have someone stand in line for you to >> Yeah. It can't be that good. Nothing is >> It is really good but it's just like >> it's breakfast food. It's breakfast.
>> Go to Waverly Diner one block down.
>> Make the breakfast yourself.
>> Like half of it's eggs or like a avocado with a drizzle of olive oil. But the pancakes are fantastic. You never went?
>> No.
>> Not a sheep.
>> You kind of are.
>> Not at all.
>> He said as he went to >> Where'd you go every morning to get your food? You went to You go to CVS.
>> Yeah. It's off the beaten path.
>> That's not exactly a mom and pop [ __ ] bodega. You're not exactly like, >> you know, supporting corporation. At least Breakfast by Salture only has three locations.
>> That's true. That's true. I used to hit Rays. I never went to Ray and I never told him that I was moving, but I couldn't. I couldn't do it.
>> Um, >> he's going to be worried sick. He's going to be like, I thought you died, my friend.
>> No jewel.
>> Dude, the uh >> when I quit the Jewel, it was a tough day for him.
>> How's that going?
>> What?
>> You're still off the Jewel?
>> I've been off the Jewel for a while. I dabble back into the vapes here and there, but >> how how crazy were the night sweats when you got off of it?
>> Um, non-existent cuz I didn't I didn't quit nicotine.
>> Oh, got it.
>> Yeah, I'm on the Lucies now.
>> Yeah. Um, really quick in Paris, uh, one thing that I noticed was that they are uh losers.
They adopt things from America that have fallen out of style like two two trends ago. M >> like I walked by this group of I don't know French young people and they saw me and they heard me speaking English and they heard me and they went 67 67.
>> Oh that's tough.
>> And I was like you guys are [ __ ] lame.
>> Yeah >> that's done.
>> Is it?
>> Yeah.
>> I don't know any I don't know much about it but that's that would like >> that's tired.
>> That would ruin that that would check me out. That's a good use of check.
>> That's checked right there. Yeah, that would check me out for the full day.
>> Yeah, I need a nap.
>> Yeah.
>> Um, >> there was another thing too that happened. Oh, there was this store that was selling those AP Swatch watches that were so popular.
>> I don't know which the ones people were lining up for.
>> Correct. 5 days. Dude, these guys were sleeping in soccer mom sideline chairs against a brick wall for days.
>> How much are the washes?
>> I mean, they're APS.
>> They're No, but they're That's the whole point. It's like I think they retailed for like 300 bucks, >> but the resale is probably >> I know 1,600. I don't know what they were reselling for.
>> APS.
>> It's a collab with Swatch that made it affordable.
>> Damn. I never even saw what those looked like. I'm also curious how many they sold at every location because like if they're only selling eight per location and then there's like 80 people outside.
>> Tell me people weren't sleeping outside for this >> for this [ __ ] pocket watch.
>> Yeah. Looks like a [ __ ] roulette table.
>> Yeah, this looks like >> pretty weird.
>> Something out of the wiggles.
>> But um yeah, I mean you know they were they were all lining. It was a huge line for that. Um >> cheap. One other thing, one other thing that really annoyed me. I went I walked really far to go to this cool coffee shop and I got my coffee from them. I talked to them for a while. It was cool.
>> And then and like kind of bonded with them. I showed them my coffee machine.
>> Show them about your coffee maker.
>> Yeah, of course.
>> It was fun. Also, I do all this.
>> You're definitely like I can imagine you walking on down the road like getting the photos ready. No, once I had I had sought this place out cuz it was like a highly reviewed elite spot.
>> Rectore Reto Verso, I think it's in um >> the Marray. Anyway, um it was good, but I went out and then there was a cafe right next door that had, you know, bakery [ __ ] croissants and all that.
>> And I bought like three or four different things to have a sampling.
>> And then I took those in a bag and I went and sat back down at the one of the tables outside of the coffee shop. And I took a bite and within one bite, the same guy who had been so nice to me and talked to me about coffee came out and he was like, "I'm sorry, you can't sit here and eat outside food." And I was like, "But I'm drinking the coffee that I bought from you." And he was like, "Yet you didn't buy that croissant here." And I was like, "I understand your position, but surely I would have I I I didn't fight him on it. I'm joking. But like they wouldn't even though I I would understand if I had bought something only from another place and had not.
>> Yeah, definitely.
>> But I had frequented their establishment >> and you'd had a nice conversation. You'd built the social cache >> and they didn't sell croissants at the coffee shop. So it's bringing something over that they didn't have.
>> Yeah. That's insane. That's crazy. Like the >> I saw some nasty propaganda about croissants this past weekend that they have the lowest sati set satity. How do you say that?
like satiation satity rate of any food.
Wow.
>> That like you get the least full from croissants of any food.
>> Well, that's crazy cuz I had three of them and I felt sick all [ __ ] day.
>> I had I had one of those, I had a panosha and I had a a Swiss one that had the raisins in it and I I was planning to just eat a couple bites of each and throw it all away or give it to the pigeons. That's a big thing there.
>> Give it to the pigeons.
>> But um I ended up eating them all cuz they were all so good.
>> Yeah. Yeah. And then I felt truly ill for the entire >> I I feel like I've I mean I' I used to eat croissants like every single morning.
>> And you'd feel full.
>> I wouldn't feel full, but I wouldn't feel hungry. Like >> they said that 100 calories of a potato versus 100 calories of a croissant gives you four times the satity. You'll be four times more full.
And this is just statistics that I'm I'm regurgitating. This isn't my research.
>> I believe you.
>> I don't. I think you're lying.
They also just put a [ __ ] stick of butter into every butter. Yeah, it's all butter. Yeah.
>> While we're on the food topic, I guess I'll I'll bang this one out. But um >> the I went yesterday I went out like went out was I went to get a we I went I went and got a panini.
>> Mhm.
>> And quickly I re I realized this is not a real restaurant. This is definitely like a front for something >> in Queens.
>> In Queens. They uh they like get the food, you know. No cash or credit. Cash or zel.
>> Zel is like zel is the number one paid.
I paid with zel.
>> Zel is like their Yeah.
>> For a panini.
>> That's >> straight from my bank account. Guy comes over with a phone number written on a napkin.
I was like, "What is this?
What? What was the storefront looking like? Did it look like >> It had a massive sign that said like paninis.
>> Go in it. They weren't paninis. It was a sandwich that they use a panini press on.
>> Paninis and oriental massage.
>> Yeah.
>> Whatever you were looking for.
>> But you said it's not paninis. You said it's a sandwich that they use a panini press on.
>> It was like a It was like a hogy.
>> But isn't that what a panini is? Any any type of pressed sandwich?
>> No, no, no, no, no. The panini is the panini that you walk in, it's flat.
>> But if you use a panini press on anything, you can make a panini.
>> But you wouldn't use like a like a a roll or like a a her a hero for a panini.
>> I feel like I've seen hero paninis.
>> Panini. I want to be on your side in this, so I'm going to I'm going to drop my debate.
>> I mean, it's panini like, but it's definitely not panini. But yeah, the >> I'm away one week and it's it's YouTube.
>> Yeah. Well, the moral of the story was that I had to pay for a sandwich with zel, which I've never done. I've never even heard of that being a thing.
>> You should check your bank. They might have stolen your identity.
>> That could be empty.
>> Yeah, they might have gotten to the [ __ ] bottom of it.
>> Have you guys heard about this uh this like meta security thing that happened that's happening? So, Meta changed all of their customer service to AI. So, people found out I this I'm assuming they probably have fixed it. It happened like today, but they found out that you can go you can just message any like Meta support and be like I got locked out of my account and then just send a photo of the person that I could send a I could message Meta send a photo of you say I got locked out of my account and they let you change the password cuz they use like facial recognition.
>> Oh wow.
>> Pretty big like lapse in judgment over by Meta there.
>> Yeah.
>> Clown clown operation over there. So, I think as of right now, like anyone's Instagram is kind of just free for the taking.
>> Really?
>> Yeah.
>> I got to get into that. Was there You wanted to talk about that documentary.
>> Oh, let's save that for >> Yeah, we'll save that. Yeah. Yeah.
>> Because I wasn't that that girl like >> I don't know if it's saying too much.
>> Okay.
>> Yeah.
>> Did she want her mom to change her interview?
>> I don't know. I don't know.
>> A good We'll save that one for the Thursday episode. Yeah.
>> Whoa, whoa, whoa. Miles Garrett >> where?
>> Oh, >> to the Rams.
Oh my god.
All right.
>> Yeah, I saw that. Whoa.
>> Yeah, it doesn't that doesn't do much for me.
>> CBS.
>> Yeah. All right, we'll be back on Thursday. Thank you for listening.
Goodbye.
