The word 'buffalo' in English is uniquely versatile, functioning as a noun (the animal), a verb (to bully, intimidate, or confuse), and an adjective (from Buffalo, New York). This linguistic flexibility allows for the creation of grammatically correct sentences using the same word multiple times with different meanings, such as 'Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo,' which translates to 'Bison from Buffalo that other bison from Buffalo bully themselves bully bison from Buffalo.' This demonstrates how lexical ambiguity can create complex linguistic constructs through the same word serving multiple grammatical roles.

Will we see you in Orlando, Florida on Friday, June 5th or Charlotte, North Carolina on Sunday, June 7th, Trustville, which is outside of Birmingham and Alabama on Friday, June 12th, and we finish here in Nashville on Saturday, June 13th. There's a VIP meet and greet before the show, except Nashville and Charlottes are both sold out. So, Alabama and Florida, we got space for you in the VIP. There's an afterparty for single purpose league at every stop. and we are having a ball and tickets start at just $45. That includes all the added fees and stuff. So, you can find the dates and the details at thebuddies.com.
We cannot wait to see you there. So, here's my conversation, just a taste of what we are doing for about two and a half hours on the show when we are live in a room for the buddies tour. But here's my conversation with my buddy and yours, Eddie Coffolds.
That sounds fun.
>> You literally led with I'm very into gum these days. What?
>> Like I was saying, I have really I really have been on a spearmint gum kick. Do you like spearmint gum?
>> Yeah, I don't like gum, but if I'm going to chew gum, I'm going to chew spearmint. No, I don't like gum. It's, as my nephew Sammy says, it's chewable rubber. And I just do not like making my jaw work work. I'll just rather have some mints and get the job done.
>> Interesting. Cuz for you it's a mouth freshening agent.
>> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. What is it for you?
>> Oh, it is it is it it is a clicking.
Like I just I'm always like I've told you like I'm just kind of a twitchy guy that I like have to know about it. Like like I have to find some way to not twitch.
>> Uhhuh.
>> I mean like not twitching like uh involuntary. I mean like always playing with my fingers. You're always like if I'm sitting down my toes are always like touching each other and like go it's so annoying.
>> If you're if I'm sitting down my toes are always touching I mean my toes are touching just cuz they're next to each other. You mean they're actively reaching out and choosing to touch each other?
>> Listen, this is helpful for video podcast people for audio. I'll describe it while I'm doing it. So let's say I'm sitting down and these are my feet, right? Can you see it?
>> Yeah.
>> Now I'll cross my legs. So now my legs are crossed and these are my little toes, right?
>> Those toes are those little pinky toes are always playing WITH EACH OTHER.
>> EW. WHY?
>> I can't I cannot I just am like real fidgety.
>> Okay. Why? Why though? What? Tell me the first time you remember your pinky toes engaging with each other.
>> Oh, I mean I I had a little kid. I've known since I like since I was a little kid. I've always been super fidgety. So, at some point in like third grade, you decided I want to put I've got on sandals cuz I'm growing up in Florida, >> right? All the time.
>> So, I need to just crisscross my legs at my ankles. I'm crossing my legs at my ankles and my pinky toes are gripping onto each other.
>> Correct. But it's also not limited to toes. That's just the like the soup dour right now. Right. It might be any number of things, right? It's playing it's I'll do like one like with my hands. I'll go back and forth like I just am like always I'm always a little fidgety. It's hard to notice until you notice it and then you realize like I'm always a little bit but I try to hold it back.
>> Did you have to as a student did you have to like choose to like not do it?
>> Yes.
>> Have you matured out of the amount of ticks you had?
>> Yeah. Ticks I think people with ticks are involuntary. This is voluntary. Uh, >> you're choosing to do this.
>> Well, it's not like I'm like like I think people with actual ticks like there's like Sorry to be seven minutes honest. That's like actually really hard.
>> I'm just a fidgety dude. Like there are people that can't control things. They say >> muscular motions.
>> Yes. Their bodies move without uh their choice. I'm like I'm like you're walking down the the the aisle at Albertson's and Whitney Houston comes on and you feel like you got to dance, right? You could not dance, but to kind of exhale, you're going to give yourself a little bounce.
>> Okay. So, you're telling me that it is it is not involuntary when your pinkies rub up against each other, but it's an itch you have to scratch.
>> Perfectly put.
>> Fascinating. And now we're we're chewing gum. So you're you're doing breath. I am feeling fidgety. And this is a socially acceptable way of me screwing around with chewable rubber. Totally right.
>> It's just something to do.
>> It's weird how those chewable rubber companies have talked us into doing this so freely. Oh, big uh big orbit. Don't even get us started on what they've done.
>> Big Spearmint has really got something going on, >> bro. I got Big Spearmint right here.
>> I've got all my things I've got all my things ready for the show. I've got all my little things packed >> for real life. We have When people are hearing this, we've done two shows. We are recording the day we fly to Dallas.
And you said you're insane today.
>> I am insane. I'm insane because there's there's a lot happening with Pillar.
There's a lot happening with the travel part of it is easy. It's that in the middle of it, real talk, like I'm talking about and I want to do that.
Well, so that's like >> that's not just like me and my buddy talking. That's like a get up there and kind of really do it. So, it's all those things, but you know, I've got all my >> What's going on with Pillar >> Pure Protein Bars?
>> Oh, sure. Yeah, they're delicious.
>> Got What else do I have? Hold on. I didn't mean to have show and tell. Do you just have things sitting beside you to put in your carry-on when it's time to go?
>> I am midpacking right now and I took everything that was back there and just swiped it all up here so it wouldn't be on camera.
>> Got it.
>> What else have is my Zoloft?
>> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
>> Oh, here's the last one. Here's my retainer.
>> Oh, listen. Night time for a lifetime.
I'm bringing mine, too. When JW and I say good night, he always texts me when he gets home and he says, "Got your tainers in?" I'm like, "I do. Got my tainers in.
>> Oh man, I wake up with that thing. I am chewing through that thing.
>> Oh, same. I chewed through one of them.
What is up with that?
>> That, my friend, is where we get into the involuntary.
>> Yeah, that's right. That's the middle of the night stress.
>> Yeah. Our body is just releasing something and it's saying, I'm going to bite you to death.
>> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's like, what's in my mouth? I used to sleep with nothing.
Now I'm have two pieces of plastic. I will bite them.
>> Right. Right. a doctor prescribed thing from you eating your own mouth as you sleep.
>> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's right. Is yours about keeping your teeth straight or is yours about not snoring or is yours about what?
>> Grinding my teeth.
>> Grinding. Got it.
>> I will wake up with like a headache in my jaw all tight and it is just because I'm chewing those girls down.
>> So, >> listen. Have you looked at our schedule for this weekend by the way?
>> It's going to hurt your feelings when you see how early we have to wake up.
>> Right. Because Friday we go early. We're like, it's all it's all early.
>> Oh, Eddie, Friday, I think we get picked up at like 10:00 or 9 or something. So, there's an app, dear everyone, there's an app called Master Tour, >> and you get on Master Tour, and you aren't supposed to ask your tour manager a ding dang thing until you've read Master Tour because >> I asked one question and got the like, "Yeah, we totally have put that up on Master Tour and we'd love to be able to point you to that." And I'm like, "Aha."
Okay. So, we leave the hotel at 8:30 Friday.
>> Okay.
>> No problem.
>> Um, we leave we have lobby call Saturday morning to fly to Colorado Springs at 4:40.
>> 4:40.
>> That's like not even sleeping. That's not even >> Don't worry. On Saturday, not I'm sorry. On Sunday morning, your flight leaves Colorado Springs at 5:30 in the morning.
>> Yeah. So you two mornings in a row you're waking up long before the chickens.
>> Long before the chickens. And that's okay because I'm kind of an early guy anyhow.
>> And it'll be exciting. But >> that was an interesting one is them trying to figure out how to fly us when to fly home.
>> Yeah.
>> And they're so nice about it. People scheduling flights for you.
>> Aaron, our tour manager. Yeah. He's amazing.
>> And he just asks you like philosophical questions. He's like, "Do you want more time at the venue or and stuff or do you want to get home?" I'm like, "Dude, I want to get home. Like, if the show is done, like that's the I would I want to be there >> and then I want to be home."
>> Yeah.
>> And he was just like, "Let's go."
>> Yeah. But you you decided not to use your private jet for this one, >> you know? I did because I like people to feel a sense of camaraderie with me and I just want to be amongst the normies.
>> Yeah. You feel very um lower than usual today for video friends. I feel like you're You're really off off the rails today, aren't you?
>> Here's a lot. Here's a lot. First of all, I'm usually standing during the show.
>> Oh, yeah. That's right. You're usually >> I can't The standing desk just is not plugged in.
>> No. Couldn't do it.
>> And I'm like literally no. So, I'm just sitting down, but I end up leaning back and then drooping >> leaning in. What also people don't know is that waist up I'm wearing a collar.
Waist down I am in running shorts. So, I got to really I got to be careful because nobody needs to see my under arours running.
>> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. We saw them when you were moving this stuff around.
>> You're kind of doing the athletic poo bear. Not the full poo bear, but the athletic poo bear.
>> No, not the full poo bear.
>> Appropriate shirt on top. Athletic attire bottom.
>> Okay. So, I am planning tomorrow morning. I want us to be accountable to this. You don't need accountability because you're very motivated.
>> I am going to work out at the gym before we go. The hotel gym before we go. And you're going to go on an outside run at some point on Friday, right? Aren't you training >> Friday morning early? I will do it before.
>> I will have I will have run and I will have showered the temple and I will have redressed by the time we get on the car.
>> This is a uniquely problematic and this is a stupid problem. This is a unique problem that you and I and JW have as the three people on stage. We have to have two outfits every day cuz we have >> This was the next thing I needed to talk to you about cuz I cannot figure out what to do.
>> So, you got to bring a day. You So, here's what I have in my suitcase.
>> Yep.
>> For For Friday and Saturday, we leave Thursday night.
>> So, this is Friday, Saturday.
>> We got to slow way down. Sure.
>> Thursday night, I'm wearing just whatever I want.
>> I You're going to see me in this tonight at the hotel. What you're seeing right now is what you will see on me in Dallas.
Okay.
>> And I'm wearing jeans. So that's important for this >> Saturday. I'm sorry.
>> Friday and Saturday both days I have workout clothes, day clothes, show clothes.
>> All right.
>> And then then pajamas and Sunday fly home clothes. So you need exit gear.
>> God, >> I know.
>> I'm going to I'm going to minimize this.
I'm going to go back to like boy scout hiking trips >> and just be like one pair of jeans.
>> Yeah. Yeah. I'm only bringing one pair of jeans for my days >> and one pair of shoes. A workout because I'm only doing one workout which is Friday morning.
>> Yep. And then and then here is the confusing part for me and this is I know that we're talking right now and I just remembered we're on a podcast so I want to make sure that >> right people have to know this stuff and if you want to join us buddies the buddies.com >> on Friday we leave the hotel but we leave with all our stuff we're not coming back to that hotel.
>> Yes we are. That's where we're sleeping Friday night.
>> Oh. So Friday we leave and I got to leave with whatever I need to change into that night. probably like some deodorant, something to brush my teeth, like a little bit to reset at the church.
>> We'll ask Aaron that whether we will come back to the room after cuz we're doing our rehearsal Friday morning >> and then we'll do lunch and a little DVO and then we probably have from 1 to 4 1 to 4:30 open. So, we'll have to ask Aaron, do you want us to stay on site?
Do we go to a coffee shop? Do we go back to like are we free to go and do? So, there's a chance we get to go back to hotel and take a 20 minute power nap, change, shower, and the runner will pick us back up, >> but it's 40 minutes >> from hotel. Oh, I guess we're I bet our hotel is very close to the airport.
Trying to make our lives early easy.
>> Aaron was smart. I read that on the tour thing. He said, "You want a hotel that's closer because when we're doing that early morning, we're basically getting up and we're right there at the airport instead of getting up driving 40 minutes. That's why we're not staying in Keller.
>> So, when we get to the hotel tonight, >> we will ask Aaron tomorrow when we come, do we need to bring everything for the show?
>> Yep. Okay, great. That's good to know.
>> And then Saturday, we will I I'm interested in Saturday because we land so early. Are we going to get early check-in to the hotels or are we going to have to go to the venue first and then go to the hotel? I mean, it's a Saturday.
>> Colorado Springs, too, though. If there was a place on the whole tour stop that I'm like, let's try to get an hour, like we should go walk around Garden of the Gods.
>> Garden of the Gods.
>> It's just so beautiful. It's just We're in Colorado Springs. It's one of the most beautiful places in the country.
>> Yes.
>> We can we we can see a little something.
I think we'll have a little time.
>> So, I think you'll be surprised how much work goes into setting up. And our That's what I was about to tell you.
>> I'm the most special boy in the world.
That's >> that's what Ashley always says that I'm the most special boy and I do not have to do that.
>> That's what Ashley Warren tells you. I know. That's right.
>> We don't technically have setup, but it would probably just be you, me, and JW and maybe Katie.
>> We'll see depending on who has to set up merch, the VIP room, the Penguin Pals room, um the stage, all that kind of stuff.
>> But also, I can help with that stuff.
I'm not planning on being >> Here's a really interesting thing.
>> Yeah. Our production manager, Jesse, we call him dad.
>> On our first tour four years ago, I wanted to be that talent. I wanted to be the talent that was like, "Put me in coach. Tell me like, why are you moving three rugs when there when I could help you?" And he said, "I need you to do your job and I need to you to let me do my job."
>> That's interesting.
>> And he they most crew now our crew may feel different. We'll ask them tonight.
Most crew feel very committed to them doing their job and us doing our job.
And that's the best way that everybody stays in good relationship and in good form.
>> Mhm.
>> Now, there have been times when I've been on tour and something goes sideways and they go and it happened twice on the cane tour. Hey, if you're available, all hands on deck to tear down the show because they didn't have enough hands at this church. That won't be us. But I I have found it very interesting that where you and I are probably inclined to be like, "Let us help." The crew guys are like, "It does not help us when y'all do this. It actually we need y'all out of here."
>> So if you're listening to this and you are now at the second or third weekend of shows, so everything past Colorado Springs, so Orlando, North Carolina, where else? Nashville >> and and Trussville, Birmingham, outside of Birmingham. Then we will update you on how this all went because I have a bad feeling like I've already hit soft and soft. They're not brick walls, but just like padded walls like no, no, no. Yeah, absolutely. Uh let's just circle back on that. You're like, "Oh, all right.
Oh, right. My job is funny. Your job is tour stuff." I'm like, "All right, cool.
I got you. I got you." But Eddie, I want everybody to know you have done a ton of work to make this show a great show.
Thank you so much for how much energy and time you've put into building this show. It is just incredible.
>> Well, return compliments never seem genuine, but same girl, same.
>> I haven't done anything. I've read the minuteby minutes that you've created.
>> Yeah, but I manage anxiety through data.
Okay.
>> So, it helps.
>> I manage anxiety through medicine.
>> Yeah. So, >> Oh, I do that, too. But but to me I'm like when cuz you and I like have no plan >> but that started to freak me out. So I made a plan of what would be a plan. And so the plan is like the second half of the show it's like seven minutes of seriousness. It's like we're going to do it anyhow. But somehow putting it on a piece of paper made me feel safe and then I'm like all right now I'll never look at the paper and we'll >> get good. We have things on the screens.
We know we know. Yeah. We know we know what we're doing. I'm very excited about it. I um I am very I will tell you. Can we talk a minute about uh wedding life that I'm engaged?
>> I I can't I It's like hard that that's not all we're talking about, but I also want to be respectful. So, can I ask you some super personal questions?
>> Yeah. Yeah. Man, it's such an interesting thing for us. JW and I are both trying so hard to figure out how to do this well and invite people in well and all the things. Well, I the the weird thing is is for as much people as people we've talked as I've talked to people through podcasting for a long time.
>> Yeah.
>> There's like a lot that's like we're not going that's not where we go cuz that's just like that's like my part of it, you know?
>> And so I don't know like how you all are navigating it, but I'm just like we don't even talk about marriage. We're not I'm not even asking you. But >> you did hard launch and you did hard announce.
>> Yes.
>> Can I ask how that felt felt? uh hard launch was harder than the engagement announcement of like, oh wow, oh wow, oh wow. And so I was we were both very glad we had told people we were dating >> before we told people we were engaged.
>> And so and in both I mean you know this profoundly because you live life with us, but in both scenarios we lived the experience for a season before we put it on the internet. We dated for 10 months before we put it on the internet. We were engaged for a while before we put it on the internet.
>> Yeah.
>> And so we're just trying to figure out how to do the wedding part. Well, what made me think of it is when you said, "I keep hitting soft walls of like I've never done this before." If you knew how many soft walls I'm bumping into with our wedding planner. Oh my gosh. Where she's like, "Um, >> thank you for wanting to help with that.
I >> I love that input."
>> Uhhuh. Yeah. because I like reached out to a friend of mine who does flowers that I adore and then I sent her to the planner thinking I was doing the right thing >> and the planner was like, "Do you remember when you told me you wanted to do this, this, and this?" And now you've reached Okay. Uh, and she could not have been kinder. The planner is a saint.
>> I love her so much. And I've just never done this before.
>> And so I just have to keep saying things like, "I promise I will not wear training wheels for this entire experience with y'all. I just have never done this before and so okay you know so >> but you also you got to remember like it's helpful to know like it's that wedding planners probably their primary job >> is to soft control people that have never done this.
>> That's right. That's exactly right.
>> It feels weird to you but that's like the job is like >> and she's doing it beautifully.
>> Oh all day long like with pillar all day long I can talk about money now. No problem. Charges whatever. used to never do that. But that's like so the other people feel like weird like will there be more of an upcharge or will there be and you're just like oh let's talk money because you're like this is all you do >> your wedding planner is all day long you and 20 other brides and grooms just it's a stock message. Thanks so much for that. Would love to put that in the mix.
>> We'll definitely think about that. Um >> have you gotten on the seating chart yet?
>> Right. Like, can you do the two things you need to do that I've asked you to do that you keep pushing back?
>> Can I tell you what's changed between when you got married when I'm getting married? There are apps. There's a wedding planner app and my to-do list is in her in her CRM or whatever it's called.
>> Golly, I mean, fantastic. That is a >> So, she'll say, uh, well, you just check back in to and that'll tell you what else we're waiting on.
>> Check master tour and see if there is something. I'm getting master toured.
I'm getting master toured with my wedding planning.
>> Love that question. Let's just check back. I'm pretty sure Aaron put it in master tour and all the dates and your confirmation number in there.
>> Oh, couldn't be more true. You could not be more right about this. So, it's a trip. It's a trip.
>> Okay, now back to our conversation with Eddie.
That sounds fun.
>> Obviously, like we've we we got our tickets. Clearly, we're going to be there. Um, we >> your tickets.
>> No, like a pl airplane ticket.
>> Yeah. Oh, thank you. I was like, there are no tickets. There's an invite, but there are no tickets yet.
>> Yes. Thank you.
>> Is the invite on the way?
>> It's already out. Yeah.
>> So far, we have 100% yeses.
>> But hold on. I think you know how you get an an email that tells you what's coming in your mail sometimes.
>> I think I saw it in today's email.
>> I would bet that's right. I would bet that's right.
>> A flourish on the left hand side. Okay, that's it. Yeah. Okay. I was like, okay, I bet that's it.
>> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, that's it.
>> Okay. Well, um what's the uh Okay, I'll ask. I don't know. I just I hitting my own soft walls.
>> We'll just call them soft balls. I mean, the reality is JW and I are both trying and talking a lot about like what is what makes us feel seen, cared for by each other and what makes us feel like we're seeing and caring for other people well.
>> And so, we're just still we still haven't hit the mark yet, which is why we didn't talk about dating until we did and why we didn't talk about engagement till we did. And so I'm just very flexy in my soul of like I know I've already known two times in this relationship the right time to >> share and we're just going to wait until we feel that more profoundly. So >> then I will just ask like when you're planning a wedding, you're both like doing marriage preparation and then also like entering into starting a small business together, the business of putting on a party for all of your people. Which one has been more natural and comfortable and which one has not?
>> Uh, or they both thrilled about the party. We like we're pretty aligned on on the party >> and we have a very strict budget. Like we're really working within a budget.
And so it's just kind like oh man that would have been so fun. But that is >> that is commas away from what we what we are spending. And so >> it's also hard to think of a couple that's been to more weddings maybe than y'all. I can't imagine anyone's been to more than he has. Yeah.
>> Right. Cuz I'm like, he's DJed. I mean, thousands. I mean, he's just >> literal thousands.
>> He literally has a full playbook of the everything that's ever happened at a wedding.
>> And you know what's sweet? He That is true. And he's like, "What what do you want your wedding to be, Annie?"
>> Yeah. Yeah.
>> What have you dreamed of? Like he he's not bringing the like, "Here's what I've seen at the bougiest weddings or here's what I've seen the most fun weddings."
He's like, >> "What is an Annie and JW wedding?" Mhm.
>> And so I'm thankful for that. Um, but yeah, so we're in general, we're having a ton of fun. Just here's the other thing.
>> We Do you know about my floors? Did you see this on the internet that we when my ceiling collapsed, we got new floors and we both hate the color.
>> Huh?
>> Huh? So I got a new rug. I got new light bulbs. I got new throw pillows. I got new decor in the kitchen. None of it worked. The floor was still too orange.
So, two days ago, we unloaded all the furniture again. And they are coming in and staining the floor this weekend while we're on tour.
>> They are restaining it.
>> The floors are like wooden.
>> Yes.
>> Oh, boy. Yeah. That's a commitment of something you don't like.
>> Uh-huh. I mean, we we tried everything.
We literally tried everything. And one day we were sitting on the couch watching Love on the Spectrum. We have to discuss.
>> And JW says, >> "Hey, I just hate the floors." I was like, I do too. Let me text the guy and let's just get a quote from him of what it would cost to redo it. And we got the quote and they gave us a discount for being a repeat customer. So, not like an Annie F discount, but a repeat customer discount. And we said we were going havsies on changing the floors.
>> Yeah, that's a weird thing. You're starting to make house decisions together because presumably you're going >> Oh my gosh.
>> Yeah. I mean, once we're married, not now, but Yeah.
>> No, I understand. But that's wild. I of course that's what's happening. But it starts to like you're you're I'm like why is he I'm like oh that's right.
Anniey's bachelorette pad. You're just you're having to get rid of your pool.
>> Our house. Yeah. I got to lose the pool table. Got to lose all the beer can. Uh I have this I have a mirror and the edges were all beer can tabs, you know.
>> Yeah. Great.
>> So I had to get rid of all the stuff.
Yeah.
>> Where you would just run wild.
>> Yeah. My she shed as I called it always as you know. My she shed.
So, >> okay. So, they're coming back to restain the floors >> and they're doing it right now. We picked the color last night. They showed us three options and we are picking the color I had before the because I was like, we love it. We both love the floors. Let's just go back to it.
>> Right. That's what it was.
>> They gave us two other options and I was like, watch me pick another one >> and still be unhappy. No, dog. I I don't have that kind of spirit.
>> We put wood floors in a house that we our first house we ever bought. Loved it. Moved out of the house to another house. need to put in floors. We were like really loved those other floors and we just did it again. So we have two houses with the same. We're like we're okay evolving but also there's certain things like wood is just great, you know, like there's just a it's not like this version this century's version of wood like >> Yeah, that's right. Wood's wood. It's George Washington's teeth. It's the floor of my apartment. Both are true.
>> It is great.
>> Listen, say this color to me. I'm gonna spell it. J A C O B E A N >> Jacobian >> or is it Jacco? Because people say both to us.
>> Who who is saying that ever in what context and why?
>> That's the color. That's the name of the floor. That's the color.
>> Oh, I've never heard of that in my life. I know.
>> I like do a lot of like woodworking things. I have never heard that.
>> Have your phone. I'll send you the color right now.
>> Yeah.
>> We'll show everybody. Take a take a second and Google Jacco Bean Jacobian.
And here was the choice we had to make this morning, Eddie. Did we want a satin finish or a demig gloss finish? And we went satin. But I just sent you the color.
>> I believe that was right. Oh, that's pretty. Oh, yeah. Classic.
>> But how do you say that word? Even uh even AI, like even Siri and Alexa say it differently.
>> You went with satin or demig gloss?
>> Satin. Yeah, that was the right cloth.
>> Yeah, I love the demig gloss. I would love that. But apparently super shiny floors are going out currently. Who cares? And they actually show more scratches.
>> I'm a I'm a huge huge uh satin fan.
>> Are you matte?
>> Yeah, I like matte satin. I don't love shiny. Nothing wrong with it. Personal preference, but I don't love it.
>> I love it. I love it. But I got outvoted by a lot of people and I was just like great. I don't care. I mean, I I I'm just happy to have dark brown floors again.
>> Can I tell you a weird thing? Is that how can we tell that something is matte even though we're looking at it on a phone screen that's shiny and glass?
Like, how does it work that way?
>> Oh, boy. You just broke me.
>> Do you understand what I mean?
>> Yeah. Boy, do I.
>> I don't understand how how images work like that.
>> I genuinely don't understand how to watch an Insta story and know if someone's left or right hand is what's in front of me. I cannot figure out whether I'm looking at someone mirrored or same as me.
>> I can't figure out. Yeah. No. Mirroring.
They used to they call it My dad did TV for a long time >> and it was always helpful. He was like he worked for like sports like different like sports television like ESPN and stuff.
>> Daddy Cos was on ESPN.
>> It was. Yes. And they used to call it golfers right. So when they would say go right, go left, they would call it golfer's right, which is if you're pro if you're covering golf, it's like the you think of it oriented to the to the to the athletes right or left. So it's like golfer's right. So I always in my head am thinking what's Annie's golfer's right? And I think it's here. Raise your right hand.
>> Yeah, that's what I I was >> That's what you thought. Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> But see, >> raise your right hand.
>> Yeah. Okay. That's what I in the moment I worked it out to think that was true.
Dear everyone listening, we raised we each raised our right hand.
>> But here's what's messed up. Is pill is pillar the word backwards to you?
>> Oh, behind you. No, it's actually correct. And so is Strawber.
>> But it's backwards when I'm looking at it.
>> Oh, >> do you see what I'm saying?
>> Yeah, cuz that sounds as backwards for me behind my head. Is it right for you?
>> It's right for me. See how >> and this is be and this is how you know like we we're just accepting a lot but I don't understand everything's really confusing.
>> Do you have you heard that whole theory that you've never actually seen your face? You're the only person who's never seen your face.
>> Oh cuz light gets light has light >> pictures mirrors. Nothing is you seeing you from someone else's perspective.
It's always you seeing a photograph like you can't see your actual self. You always see a version of yourself, a reflection of yourself.
>> I'm going to be gentle with this joke, but I feel like you and I are in college right now sitting on the back porch >> just handing it handing it >> handing it back and forth.
>> And just and just being like, "Bro, do you even know what light is?"
>> Like that star, the light from that star started before the Earth was even around. I'm like, isn't that nuts that it's here now? Like, what does that mean?
>> Yeah. Hey, everybody, come on tour. This is how it's going to get. Um, okay. Have you watched Love on the Spectrum?
>> I haven't.
>> Oh, Eddie. It's the most >> I know. Lucy burned through it and loved it. She said it's just like fantastic and pure and fun and loving.
>> Yes, we've only watched season 4. We're working. We've got one episode left on season 4, but I am telling you, we are we love them.
>> We love everybody.
>> Are we just pluralizing we meaning you and JW all the time?
>> Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. That's who I've been watching.
>> That's a new assumption right now. I understand. I got to get used to that.
No, no, no. Cuz we Yes. Because we're we're watching >> when it's just me cuz I'm the only one who watches who like goes back and watches Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt over and over.
>> Over and over. Okay. What does he watch?
What's his default over and over?
basketball. If there's basketball and the nicest thing I can do when we get home from the gym, if he's coming over to my house to eat dinner, the nicest thing I can do is make him a man mosa cuz we're sober. He It is uh 75% Sprite, 25% orange juice, and a squeeze of lime.
>> Oh, that's nice.
>> Yeah, it's a manosa. You're We're going to have him at the wedding. Mamosas and Shirley Temples. and uh have it sitting on the co little coffee table and turn basketball on and he feels like I have built him a castle.
>> I mean that is nice and NBA college >> NBA. NBA >> NBA. Okay. Okay. And what's the team?
>> Oo, it's any team actually.
>> Oh boy.
>> But his guy has a complicated name.
>> A lot of them do. Jurgen. No. Nope.
Nope. Let me tell you who Jurgen is.
>> You have a team?
>> No, I could ask him in a second.
>> Me and my nephew Sammy make up a villain and the villain's name is Jurgen.
>> Okay. Well, that's a good villain name to my mind.
>> I'll I'll find out. I'm going to see him in under 24 hours. But >> yeah, I'll let you ask him. We'll talk about it at uh Dallas.
>> It's nice to know people's teams.
>> Yeah.
>> Right. Where you stand, where you does he have a college team, all of that kind of stuff. cuz you and I that was >> that was a problem because he came from Florida and I was concerned he was a Gator.
>> But he's hold on hold on hold on.
>> Where did he grow up?
>> Orlando.
>> I get nervous that he's a Miami fan.
>> No. No. If there was one it would have been Central Florida, but I've brought him over to the red and black side.
>> He's a dog. He's a dog.
>> That's >> I know that's tough. Well, he just didn't really have one. He didn't really have one. I Yeah. And you can't root for UCLA. I was like, "How about the Atlanta Hawks?" He was like, "No, no, no, no, no, no, no." I was like, "Oh, okay. So, we take it real serious when it's NBA, >> right?" So, it's just not the college the depth of college. I understand that.
>> He's like not coming over to my teams.
He just didn't have a college team and I don't have a NBA team particularly besides Dominique Wilkins and Spud Webb playing for the Hawks. And that was in the 80s.
>> Whoa. Yeah. Yeah. I um Yeah, I I I understand that. It's there are certain things that are non-negotiable, but also like if you didn't have a college, you can be pretty not not didn't have a college, but if you weren't an like SEC, >> yeah, >> like there's even strengths of colleges like two people get married, one person went to, you know, lovely Pepperdine, >> the other one went to LSU. I'm like, it's going to be awesome.
>> Everybody's wearing purple and gold.
That's exactly right.
>> Right. You don't have Pepperdine does not have the muscle. They have beautiful campus in Malibu, but they don't have the sports muscle for us to care.
>> Yes.
And now back to finish up our conversation with Eddie.
>> Do you know what I find myself doing in this exact moment is I'm looking at my list and I'm deciding what to save for the live shows.
>> Oh, I read a novel that I have to save for the live show. I'm realizing in real time.
>> I know. Like I don't even know like how much time do we even have on this one because there's something I want to talk about, but it's >> Oh, then go go go. You go.
>> What have There are two fruits that I've discovered lately that I think are really important for everybody to have.
>> I'd like to know if you've ever a had them and b what your review is.
>> Okay, I'm ready.
>> Number one is a golden kiwi.
>> Nope, never had it.
>> All right, they're real seasonal. So, they just came back at Costco and I don't even know if they're seasonal everywhere, but like a green kiwi I could take or leave. But this is a golden kiwi.
>> Okay.
>> And you cut it open and the inside's more of like a yellowy. It's not green.
And it is just the taste of like sweet pineappley sunshine kiwi.
>> Oh, it's like a pineapple kiwi. It's not like a strawberry banana like a kiwi is.
>> No, it's definitely just a kiwi, but it's got that like nice sugary sweetness that's like this is >> And it's just like real good.
>> Yeah. Okay. I'm looking one up right now.
>> Golden kiwi.
>> Okay. And then the other one year and a half ago, our friend Esther comes over.
>> Yeah.
>> She is Korean and she brings over Korean pears.
>> And have you ever seen these?
>> No.
>> You've Okay. I don't like pears at all.
>> And I want to like them, but I don't like them. And I try them every couple of years, and I'm like, nah, this is just a messed up apple. I'd rather really have an apple.
>> Okay.
>> These Korean pears, they're big, big, big, big. like big softball size and they're usually wrapped in like a foam almost. So they're sitting like three in a pack and they're in foam, >> but they're like a mix between an apple and a pear but like with like light honey inside of them.
>> What?
>> I'm telling you, Korean pears, you and I on this tour are going to find >> I was about to say Orlando. I say this is an Orlando show. In Orlando, we get a golden kiwi and a Korean pair. Yeah, that's no problem because right down the street if people are coming to the Orlando show, which by the way, >> you should Orlando in terms of like availability of incredible food within a moment away.
>> The best.
>> Beefy King. Oh, yeah. Beefy King.
>> Beefy King.
>> Do you know what this is?
>> No. Can I eat it that day?
>> Yes, you can eat it that day. I'm going to tell you some things about Beef King.
>> Sounds like Okay.
>> What do you guess it is?
>> Arby's. I guess it's a local Arby's.
That's better.
>> Bingo.
Great. Great.
>> Except there are a couple of things that make it very unique. So the sandwich is like >> roast beef cut up but like right there cut up like magnafi. You can get it with cheese and onion. So good. A little horsey sauce. Magnafi.
>> Yes.
>> The tater tots will stop you. Like they are crunchy. They are fantastic. They are so good.
>> Three. I am got to get a Beefy King shirt. I used to have one. I I wore it out. They have a great logo and it's old school. It's been on mills forever.
>> Four, Jimmy Fallon went there when he came to Orlando. He went to a couple of restaurants. Beefy King was one of them.
And I was right down the street and everybody just like he had posted it when he had already left, which is smart.
>> Of course he did.
>> But Beefy King, but then right around the corner from Beefy King, amazing Asian markets, like >> amazing, which is Korean pairs will be like no big deal.
>> Yeah. And you know what'll be fun is we will say to Aaron, tour manager, "Hey Aaron, we need two golden kiwis and two uh Asian or Korean pairs."
>> Probably more cuz we'll share like I'll cut it up if there's people around that want some pairs. Yes.
>> Yeah. There's lots of people coming. Um he will say, "Got it." And we will not think about it again. And he it'll come back and I don't know how it'll get there. He'll get a runner to get it.
He'll get someone local to get it.
Someone in the church who needs something to do. He will handle it.
That's what a tour manager does. What's funny to me is that I have no sense of that because in my mind the question is, Aaron, can I borrow a car real quick?
I'll be back in a half hour.
>> Now, he may say to us, we don't have a runner today. Can you get an Uber and go solve it? And we go, yes, sir, we can.
>> Yes, love to.
>> When we were in Buffalo, so I toured with him for the Kane tour. That's how we met him. He's the tour manager for Kane, and Kane didn't have shows these weekends, and so they very kindly loaned him out to us >> and let us pay him for these weekends to tour manage us. So, >> that's nice.
>> When we were in Buffalo, I wanted Buffalo wings.
>> Yeah.
>> Cuz I'd never been to Buffalo.
>> No, I know. Now, where did they get them for you from?
>> Uh, now they couldn't because we didn't have enough runners. So, I got an Uber and went to two places and they both had over an hour wait.
>> So, I got back to the place and everybody was like, "Oh, no wings." And I was like, "No, no, no." And then I got on Uber Eats and ordered them.
>> Um, I don't remember where I ordered them from. Do you want me to look >> bar?
>> I went to Anchor Bar and they had a terrible weight.
>> Yeah.
>> And and I went to >> I'm going to be honest though. I'm I'm going to be honest.
>> Be honest. I appreciate that.
>> Uh Anchor Bar is where it started. Not the best ones though. So it's >> the best ones. What do you love?
>> Uh I have a lot of friends in Buffalo and I would just ask them. I would ask I would ask Uncle Rob. But like I've had wings in Buffalo before. We've we have friends in Buffalo. Buffalo a incredible city. I loved it. And so on that in that particular scenario, Aaron said, "Handle it if you want wings." And I said, "Yes, sir."
>> Do you know about the word buffalo and why it's like like revolution?
>> No. What?
>> Like crazy in the English language?
>> No.
>> The word buffalo is can be used as a I'm really bad with this, so I'm going to only take this so far and let you finish. The word buffalo can either be a noun, a verb, or an adjective. So you can actually make a full sentence, long sentence just with the word buffalo.
>> Ashley, can you Ashley would really chime in on this? So So it's a noun, a verb. So a buffalo just buffalo the buffalo.
>> Yeah, but you can actually just say buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo.
Like and they all mean different things.
>> What? There's a whole string on Wikipedia of like the longest sentence you can make out of a single word and it's buffalo over and over again because of all the different ways it's used.
>> That is absolutely shocking. Oh, you can do eight buffaloos and it's a word.
>> Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo is a sentence that is grammatically correct in English is often presented of how homins and homophones can be used to create complicated linguistic constructs through lexical ambiguity. It's been discussed in literature in various forms since 1967. Okay, Eddie, turn tell us how.
>> Look at the graph.
>> Look at my look at your screen. Look at me right now.
>> Yeah, I am.
>> Isn't that incredible? Yes, I'm I'm looking at you that I'm just looking. I have two versions of you.
>> I think >> What does it mean though? What does that sentence mean?
>> It's like describing the animal and then the an you can buffalo something. And I don't know what that means and I don't want to know. But basically, you're saying like a thing from Buffalo, New York that is a buffalo the animal is buffaloing. Whatever that mean.
>> Buffalo. Buffalo.
>> Buffalo.
>> Buffalo.
A buffalo. Buffalo.
>> So those two ah in there. That's the problem.
>> So maybe it's plural. Buffalo. Buffalo.
>> Yes, that's >> buffalo. Buffalo buffalo. SO, IF I CAN understand what a what riveting riveting information that everyone's getting, I'm gonna ask the internet.
>> It's on sale at the buddies tour.com.
>> You said buffalo.
>> There's got to be a promo code buffalo.
>> Is buffalo a verb?
>> This is the one I can't figure. Buffalo is a verb meaning to bully, intimidate, confuse, or baffle.
>> Right.
>> It's famously used in the grammatically correct sentence of eight buffaloos.
Okay, it can be translated to buffalo from New York that here it is. Bison from New York that other bison from New York bully themselves bully buff bison from New York.
>> Right?
>> Are you ready? So bison from New York that other bison from New York bully themselves bully bison from New York. So that's how it's eight buffaloos.
>> Yeah.
>> So another way, let me read it to you again. Bison from Buffalo that other bison from Buffalo bully themselves bully bison from Buffalo.
That is a wild sentence.
>> Yeah. And it's grammatically correct and it's all Buffalo.
>> It's bananas.
>> I also think there is a better than good shot that everybody in Buffalo right now is like, "We know." And everybody in Buffalo, like any store you go in, there's a shirt with eight buffalo on it. And they're like, "We know."
>> I said, "We got to take a tour stop to Buffalo."
>> Just a quick I would love Oh, Buffalo architecture, food, people. Oh, I love >> Do you I'm not sure we're allowed to talk about this, but who's going to stop us right now?
>> Do you hope we get to do a second leg of this? I really hope we do.
>> I do. Yeah, >> I do, too. I hope these six are fun enough for everyone involved that we get to do another round.
>> Also, because I I have thoughts of the second round if we ever do it.
>> Okay.
>> Which is a little more like should we plant up in a more central place and do two nights at a like like go >> two nights at the Roxy, >> right? Or like LA.
>> Yeah.
>> Or something where it's just like >> Buffalo. But I like this very much.
>> Would you be open to a bus tour?
>> I I think so. I uh the method of transportation is not really the conversation that I understand why we would have. Like I don't care how I get to places.
>> Well, you do when you don't have to wake up at 4:00 a.m. because you wake up at 10:00 a.m. and your bus has been parked at that next church for four hours.
>> Oh, yeah. I'll do whatever. I'm I'm I'm game. I like doing it. I think to me it's uh I feel like if at the end of the day if your team is pleased with the results of the ticket sales because there is a business part of this like if they're happy and feel like okay this was worth everybody's time >> and we were able to spend our resources wisely >> y >> and then if we feel like at the end of these shows people had like a legitimately good time and it was additive to their life.
The easiest part of this equation is you and I but you and I have I think the easiest job. We send a runner to get Korean pairs and then joke around with each other on stage.
>> On stage. That's right. That's right.
>> Hey, can we talk about my stage outfits?
>> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. We've got about five minutes to do that.
>> So, outfit one, I just bought new chinos and then because the other ones just looked kind of frump and stainish. So, I brought chinos like the regular boy colored, you know, and then denim shirt obviously. Same one from the picture.
color chinos.
>> You know what I mean? Just like that.
Like tan.
>> So something I would say, not you.
>> But you understand.
>> Yes. Yes.
>> Pretend.
>> My nephew Sammy has them on today for his kindergarten graduation.
>> God, a little redhaired kid.
>> Adorable. I'm about to show you a picture.
>> You know, I love a red-haired kid.
They're just the cutest.
>> He's the cutest. So, yes, I know you have boy chinos and what?
>> And then and then a denim shirt. Denim shirt from the picture.
>> And I guess we can iron at the hotel.
And then >> and I'm bringing a steamer.
>> Oh, cool. And then cool Nikes. Nike cool Nikes every night. So because I want to be comfortable.
>> That's great.
>> But this it's the second show night that I'm like I don't want to wear the same thing.
>> You can. No one will know. And I do need to put in your hopper that in Colorado Springs we have a photographer coming to do a bunch of pictures for us.
>> So in Colorado Springs we're getting photographed. In Nashville we're getting photographed.
>> Oh boy. and poss possibly Charlotte because we have a dear friend in Charlotte who's just like, "Can I come take pictures?"
>> There are certain things it's helpful for me not to know. And that's one of them. Sorry.
>> I don't I don't need to meet that person. I will I mean I will, but I don't I don't want to think about that cuz the second one is I have a different pair of chinos. I have a cool jacket like a cool like carpenter denim jacket that I have. And then I was thinking like a t-shirt underneath that's like a like a printed like just like a graphic tea but not like Ed Hardy something I like >> but also Ed Hardy. I am wearing night one I'm wearing a navy blue day dress like fun dress.
>> Yep.
>> Night two I'm wearing a put together mustard. It's like a really green mustard dress like a mustard. Mustard.
So, if I'm wearing a graphic tea that's like Snoop Dogg or some rapper that I like and a cool jacket and pants, we're equal equal enough dress-wise.
>> We're equal both nights.
>> Okay, great. That's That's it. I'm glad we talked about that as I'm packing my bag at noon and I'm leaving in 4 hours.
>> Yeah, that's right.
>> Wouldn't it been great if you're like, "No, you got to be in a suit." I'm like, "Well, that's >> Oh, jeez. No, no, no, you don't need to be in a suit." Now, do you choose to wear a suit for one of the shows? Only time will tell, honestly.
>> The only time will tell you fun things to bring. I cannot wait. I I mean I cannot believe we get to do this live tomorrow.
>> Tuxedo tuxedos and formal on our last on our last show.
>> Oh my gosh. What if we both wore tuxedos?
>> What if I got a man a boy? What if I got boy pants, >> dude? Women in tuxedos is cool.
>> It is very cool. I've seen some women do it. Very cool.
>> I always I could never pull it off, but I like guys that wear um tuxed.
>> Listen, we're running third on time. I hope people come to the buddy show.
Congratulations on your engagement. I >> feel like I we should have talked about it more, but I feel like we're going to not talk about it. So, we're just This is what we got through today.
>> That's right. Um can I think that's perfect. Um everybody, we'll see you at the buddies.

We just live in >> Jenna has a real sense of it, but it is also like >> she's also our local troll. No one trolls like she trolls.
>> I don't know what that means.
>> So she Oh, so she loves picking clips that she knows people will laugh out of us.
>> Oh, that's what you need though. Cuz if I pick my own clip, I'm too vain.
>> Same.
>> Right. Like I'll pick the one that was just like, "Oh, good joke." Or, "No, I didn't look dumb in that one." Whereas really, it's >> playing with your toes.
