[00:00:32] Speaker A: Name brand.
Hey, ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to Papa Don't Preach. I'm here with Bennett Miller. How you doing, Bennett?
[00:00:39] Speaker B: I'm okay.
[00:00:40] Speaker A: Happy spooky season.
[00:00:41] Speaker B: That's right. We're in it.
[00:00:42] Speaker A: We're in it, man. This is the spookiest time of the year. Spookiest time of the year for all you guys. Bennett is back. We just had an episode with my brother. It went well.
[00:00:52] Speaker B: I believe you.
[00:00:53] Speaker A: I think it went well, sure. But yeah, since that happened, he's had a baby.
I induced the pregnancy I was going.
[00:01:03] Speaker B: To say was a junior situation.
[00:01:04] Speaker A: I think that's exactly what happened.
Junior. What a throwback.
[00:01:10] Speaker B: I think it needs a reboot.
[00:01:12] Speaker A: I think this is the time that would need a junior reboot. I think that movie was ahead of his time.
[00:01:16] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:01:16] Speaker A: Fucking the governor having a baby.
[00:01:18] Speaker B: Let's do twins and Junior and do them back. Shoot them back to back. So we put them both in theater, back to back.
[00:01:24] Speaker A: Oh, that'd be great.
[00:01:25] Speaker B: That would be Harry Potter split up situation.
[00:01:30] Speaker A: Do you want them to live in the same universe?
[00:01:32] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:01:32] Speaker A: Okay.
I think you're going with the flow now.
[00:01:36] Speaker B: Hey, guys, no bad ideas in brainstorming.
[00:01:40] Speaker A: If we're brainstorming.
[00:01:41] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:01:42] Speaker A: I got a pitch for you.
All right. It's called not that cool. It's basically get shorty three. I have an idea. I want to bring John Travolta back. It's going to be really good, but basically, John Travolta is a shylock, obviously. But what a shylock? Is that a racist term?
[00:02:00] Speaker B: Yes, it is.
[00:02:00] Speaker A: Oh, shit. I didn't know that.
[00:02:02] Speaker B: Well, I mean, it's also the name of a character in Shakespeare's play, but it was a gross Jewish JPE.
[00:02:08] Speaker A: Oh, shit. I thought, like, the shy I can't keep saying it, but I thought that was just like a guy lends you money.
[00:02:16] Speaker B: Oh, hey, good night, everybody.
[00:02:18] Speaker A: And now I get it now.
Well, you learn things every day.
[00:02:24] Speaker B: Hey. You learn things every day.
[00:02:26] Speaker A: Hey. Man, it's crazy how many things are racist as hell and just weasel their way into our vocabulary and we have no idea.
[00:02:35] Speaker B: I'll tell a story about my friend. This is not me.
[00:02:39] Speaker A: It's definitely.
[00:02:42] Speaker B: Not how I would start. The know. In Louisiana, there is a term for Cajuns that Cajuns use for themselves. It's called OOH. I know.
[00:02:52] Speaker A: I have never heard that.
[00:02:54] Speaker B: Like, there's it's on baseball hats. And I'm sure it know some derogatory, meaning that Cajuns were yeah, yeah, that's me. But one of my friends, whenever she moved to New York, she was like, didn't know that the racial connotations and introduced like, oh, I'm Cajun. I'm kind of a coon ass. And literally the New York room went quiet.
She's like, I had no idea.
Yeah, it's not like a cool thing to tell people from north.
[00:03:24] Speaker A: I'm glad you changed your gender in that story.
None the wiser.
No, it's really not funny, but it's really tragic how a lot of racial slurs end up in our regular day.
[00:03:45] Speaker B: Since we're talking about racial slurs. So they've been doing reprints of old comics. Like first prince Batman first appearance. Superman.
[00:03:53] Speaker A: That just makes me uneasy already.
[00:03:54] Speaker B: It's not good. So last night, one of the little dudes brought me because I got a couple of them. Like the first Batman. There's a Detective Comics 15. So the way the comics were in the day, it's like there's a Batman story. And there's like five other stories, like Detective Stale, like a cartoony tale. And one was a detective who went undercover.
He was Chinese. And all of the dialogue was in the awful L's and the super stereotype. And they even use a couple of slurs in it. And it's like, literally Batman's a few pages before the very first Batman story is next to this white detective dressing up in a chinaman outfit calling people Orientals. And that was the nicest thing he said. I was like, oh, wow. I'm glad we didn't keep this character alive.
[00:04:41] Speaker A: You're a comic book guy. Do you know if it's true that Daredevil was made blind because people were upset he was beating up black people?
[00:04:48] Speaker B: No. What?
[00:04:49] Speaker A: That was a rumor I heard about Daredevil.
[00:04:51] Speaker B: No, he was like, that character was originally made.
[00:04:54] Speaker A: He was in Hell's Kitchen beating up the blacks. And they're like, what the fuck? And then they made him blind. When I heard that story, I was.
[00:05:01] Speaker B: Like, story has always been the same since the very beginning. Like, his dad was a boxer. He was turned blind by chemicals. Interesting fact, though, that the Ninja Turtles origin story is like the way that Ninja Turtles story in the very first issue of Ninja Turtles, it takes place the same time Daredevil gets his power. So as the kid gets shoved out of the way, he shoves an old man out of the way, and the bowl gets knocked over into the sewer with the Turtles. And like, the same substance that gave Daredevil his power turned the Ninja Turtles into Ninja Turtles.
[00:05:30] Speaker A: Nerd.
[00:05:31] Speaker B: I know. Hey, you're telling me, brother.
[00:05:35] Speaker A: Nerd. No, that's good stuff.
[00:05:37] Speaker B: It's also one of those, know well, you know that Stan Lee made Magneto to be Malcolm X and Professor Xavier to be Martin Luther King Jr. And that's so fucking false.
[00:05:46] Speaker A: We put those labels on.
[00:05:52] Speaker B: The real story is that DC came up with a comic called the Doom Patrol a couple of months before the X Men. And then Stan Lee and Jack Kirby were like, well, we want a teenage weirdo comic, so we're going to do it. They even have the Doom Patrol was like the strangest superheroes of all. The X Men stole that exact head for their first issue. So it's like, that's where it was rooted from. And as the political landscape changed and Stan Lee became the soapbox of superheroes, that narrative know change in fit and I think know an know narrative. But that's not the origins of X Men.
[00:06:27] Speaker A: Like it was literally just to compete with doesn't matter.
Like, it doesn't matter what ideas you have. I don't want to say time is linear, but it's been done before. Yeah, totally.
I had this idea that I was really into.
I wanted to make this series. And I had like a five season arc. And I was working on this character called Ashdown. It was this vampire. I had this great idea. And I was like, this is an amazing idea. And like two years ago, I stumble on this fucking 80s commercial for this cartoon now discontinued after a season in the it's literally my idea. And I was like and I've never even heard of this thing before. I'm not even going to say the name. But I was like, what the fuck? And so I was like, all right. Rewrite time. And I was just like, when you see that stuff, like, you kind of take a deep breath. You're like, there's nothing I can do that's original. No, nothing. I can ever do that's original ever again. But yeah, it was very funny. I got to look up this cartoon and show it to you because I'll tell you exactly the plot of Ashton. I'll show you this trailer.
[00:07:33] Speaker B: You're like, when I was in college, I was working on like a screenplay, like short, whatever, about this.
[00:07:40] Speaker A: You were working on a screenplay?
[00:07:41] Speaker B: Well, I was with the film school and all that shit. So it was like a writing like I was writing it for a class.
[00:07:46] Speaker A: So cool.
[00:07:47] Speaker B: It was very cool. But wait, it was about like a detective that was a fake psychic. And he used his powers of observation. And literally as I'm typing in the fucking commercial for the premiere of Sight comes on, I'm like, motherfucker, that's what you know, I'm sure they're doing it wittier and funnier. But like, oh, yeah, there's no black guy in my.
[00:08:12] Speaker A: Oh, man. I remember when my budy Seth sent me a video. He's like, god damn it. Because we went to New Mexico. And we were painting houses in New Mexico. No Internet, no TV, no going out. We're just like, we're going to make some money. We're staying at his uncle's house. We went to bed at ten, woke up at six. We played basketball on the weekends at the rec center. So we're like, hey, let's write this movie we've been talking about. And the movie was about henchmen. It was just a henchmen story. It was about this dad that was a henchman and wanted to bond with his son because he's divorced. He's a piece of shit. And he just wants to bond with his son. But he obviously works for a supervillain.
All this shit's going on in the background.
And story after story, he sent me like six different movie trailers and show ideas that were coming out of our idea. And we're like, we give up. Not one of them have landed. The only thing that's even close is the boys. But it really isn't because that's still about the superheroes.
Seth, if you're listening, we got to write this thing.
[00:09:23] Speaker B: Yeah, there was way back in the day we're going deep in the comics.
[00:09:27] Speaker A: Yep. Here we go, guys.
[00:09:28] Speaker B: There was, like, a Spider Man anthology series called Web of Spider Man. It was all about the ancillary characters and all the minor characters. And there was one story that I really stood out, was like, it was the son of Frog Man. Like, Frog Man was, like, getting out of jail and trying to reunite with his son. And his son's act of rebellion was to become Frog Man, too. And it was like just one of those, like, I learned it from you, dad kind of scenarios, but like, his dad was a shitty supervillain.
One of those stories that always stuck out for me.
[00:10:01] Speaker A: Hey, so let me ask you a question. If you had let's say this is your origin story, all right? You tripped over a brick, and it revealed, like, this glowing rock. And this guy came out, and he's like, you have to pick a power that will be passed on to your offspring. This one's going on to whoever your son is. If you have two sons, they're both going to get this. This is a legacy thing.
What would it be? And remember, you can't just think about what you want. You have to think about what your kids won't end up turning dark and robbing banks for.
What would be your I guess your hereditary power on the spot, bro.
[00:10:44] Speaker B: Yeah, I can't just be like, I'm a superman. No, I'm sure you have to pick one. Right? Yeah, I know it's a complicated one.
[00:10:56] Speaker A: Oh, yeah.
[00:10:57] Speaker B: Obviously for me. For you, run of the superpowers.
We're talking practical. One of my superpower I always wish I had is there's a new mutant called Cypher Cipher, and he could speak any language, including talk to machines and talk like, I always thought be a very practical superpower. Like you could program if you wanted. You go anywhere in the world and communicate with people. Either that or flying.
[00:11:28] Speaker A: That'S way better than I was thinking. I was like, I'm going to be a speedster.
[00:11:32] Speaker B: I'm running really fast. It sounds like you'd have to have, like your knees might go, but I think that's all part of your physiology. If you're superhuman, that can run really fast.
[00:11:40] Speaker A: If I could run really fast, I was in the body I'm in now. Fuck, yeah. I have, like, a week left to live.
Yeah, I'd be rolling down the street tomorrow.
Oh, shit. We forgot to bring this up.
Well, we're not touching that. We're not touching that part. But if you guys understand what's going on in the world right now yes, we're not touching that.
[00:12:09] Speaker B: Oh, no. We're not picking sides.
[00:12:10] Speaker A: We're not picking sides.
[00:12:11] Speaker B: I'm not even going to post something on Instagram about it.
[00:12:13] Speaker A: I'm not.
[00:12:14] Speaker B: I'm not even going to travel down the middle of the road. I'm going to lift my hands up and say, I'm a white, middle aged man from America who knows nothing.
[00:12:22] Speaker A: I'm John.
[00:12:23] Speaker B: Besides, what is Fed to me?
That's it. I'm going to step away, and I'm.
[00:12:29] Speaker A: Motherfucking Jon Snow here. I think everyone should shut the fuck up, and we got to get our shit together. That's it. Anyway, moving on.
[00:12:38] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:12:39] Speaker A: You hear about this Trevor Bauer bastard?
[00:12:41] Speaker B: The thing is no, I didn't.
[00:12:43] Speaker A: All right?
[00:12:45] Speaker B: He was a baseball man.
[00:12:47] Speaker A: He was a baseball man. He was a baseball man. I'm going to give you a quick recap, and I'm going to try and be as vague as possible.
Trevor Bauer is a fantastic pitcher, and he's always been a kind of a piece of shit. Last year or a year and a half ago, he was accused of sexual assault. Like rape. Like bad shit.
[00:13:07] Speaker B: Like, real awful shit.
[00:13:08] Speaker A: Real awful shit. And everybody who knew Trevor Bauer kind of like, threw up. Their hands were like, it seems right.
[00:13:14] Speaker B: Yeah. There was no Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis to write nice little letters about.
[00:13:22] Speaker A: The only Danny Masterson was the only one that was like, this is a good guy. Leave him alone. Only one. And then we should have been like but anyway, yeah, Trevor Bauer got dragged. I was even with him. I'm like, this guy's a piece of shit. Fuck him. Get him off the it was like.
[00:13:38] Speaker B: One person or a bunch of people that accused him.
[00:13:40] Speaker A: It was one person that accused him. She seemed credible. Dodgers dropped him. He was banned from the wow. You know, legal action was going up against him. Everybody was just like, this is why everybody applauded the Dodgers for how quickly they moved.
[00:13:57] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:13:58] Speaker A: This last week.
This last week, some stories are surfacing and the accuser is speaking out, and she is not doing herself any justice. And it turns out it was all a ruse. She was lying. She made everything up. She was colluding with friends. And I don't know. Our producer was saying the same shit. Millennials be snitching on themselves.
I don't know what this shit is.
Did we learn anything from the Nazis? Don't film your atrocities.
[00:14:31] Speaker B: Don't keep a record.
[00:14:32] Speaker A: Yeah. Like, what the fuck?
Only the Catholic Church and the Nazis have made the fuck up of keeping very detailed records of the very bad things that they've done. But yeah, it turns out that she's lying. She was know, she was texting her friends, like, let's get that bag and explain DMs about her making it up. Then she does this interview that it seems like she was not prepared for, which seemed I don't know if they lied to her and said, hey, you're coming on here to win a million dollars because it seemed like she had no idea what was going on. Every time she opened her mouth, she dug herself a bigger hole. And what really sucks is the only people covering this are know, men's rights right wing losers.
[00:15:15] Speaker B: Yeah, it does happen.
[00:15:21] Speaker A: Stephen crowder sitting there.
[00:15:23] Speaker B: Men lie. Wait, no, women lie.
[00:15:26] Speaker A: There it is. See, I couldn't even say it right.
[00:15:34] Speaker B: Sounds shitty.
[00:15:35] Speaker A: It's very poopy. It's very poopy. It's on brand for State of the World.
[00:15:42] Speaker B: It's a hard thing to pick because sometimes these things happen where men are falsely accused. It doesn't happen a lot of times because we all want to believe the victims and all those things.
I could see why the men's rights guys would get behind this. Yeah, this is like a victory for shitty men everywhere.
[00:16:04] Speaker A: Yeah. I don't even know her name. I don't even know.
Lindsay Hill. Lindsay Hillai. All right. Lindsay Hillai with Juicy Smoolette.
They're all lying. Don't know how to lie. Like, the New York Post is covering this. They're not credible.
But yeah, I'm going to wait. The same thing every time shit like this comes out. Always say, hey, let's wait a minute. Let's wait till we hear what the fuck is going on. Because I think that's some of the most fucked up things is when a story comes out, people automatically jump on sides, and then someone's going to end up like an idiot. Yeah, because motherfuckers lie. People are always clout chasing.
[00:16:51] Speaker B: Yeah.
It's just shitty to invite asshole guys in to be, like to let their opinions be the louder ones whenever they've got your back for something you did. You're in a rare club. Not a good club to be in.
[00:17:08] Speaker A: Yeah.
Let's say we've been talking about this dude for a while. We haven't brought him up, but little Kylie Rittenhouse.
[00:17:19] Speaker B: Yeah, that guy.
[00:17:20] Speaker A: Little Kylie.
Imagine if that motherfucker just would have been apologetic, turned himself in, told the right wingers to go fuck themselves. Like, I did a bad thing. I'm immature and just, like, ate some shit and went away.
[00:17:36] Speaker B: I mean, you wouldn't have a mobile app, I tell you that much.
[00:17:39] Speaker A: Pew, pew, pew.
Only our dedicated listeners will get that joke. But yeah, if you think about it, it really sucks because when people fall only, like, the demons and the dredges of social media pick them up and let them float, and they're like they feel like they have nowhere to turn. They're like, all right, these are my people. I am one of them.
[00:18:03] Speaker B: You know?
[00:18:04] Speaker A: I'm a bottom feeder.
[00:18:05] Speaker B: The entertainment sith are side. Yes.
[00:18:08] Speaker A: Yes.
[00:18:09] Speaker B: We have an open door policy for shitty people.
[00:18:13] Speaker A: Like, when did Darth Vader become cool? He's a bad person.
[00:18:18] Speaker B: He killed kids. We know this.
[00:18:20] Speaker A: Fucking murdered kids.
We know this dude blew up planets and murdered kids. And now we're like, he's cool. Now he's not.
[00:18:30] Speaker B: His mask is cool.
[00:18:31] Speaker A: His mask is cool. And his lightsaber no.
[00:18:34] Speaker B: Is not cool.
[00:18:36] Speaker A: No, it's not this best work.
So for those of you who are watching our pod, you'll see that we have some decorations going here. We have a new art department, so that's real nice.
We got some candies here, and I'm supposed to eat one. We're supposed to do some candy tasting and taste some of the new stuff, but Ben and I went too hard.
I can't eat anymore.
[00:19:04] Speaker B: Yeah, we were setting know, lights were being adjusted, and we ate, like, a small Halloween's worth of candy already.
[00:19:11] Speaker A: Oh, my really?
[00:19:13] Speaker B: Because it was here. It used to be the entire it.
[00:19:15] Speaker A: Was the whole table.
[00:19:16] Speaker B: Shrunk it down to that much. Yeah.
[00:19:19] Speaker A: You know what's funny? I didn't really notice this that the single twix had what side that they're labeled on.
[00:19:29] Speaker B: Open a twix either get a left or a right.
[00:19:31] Speaker A: You get a left or a right, which I think is such a fun detail.
[00:19:35] Speaker B: It's American, baby. It's very few choices. You get left or right. Ain't no center twix.
[00:19:42] Speaker A: Fucking moderate twix.
[00:19:45] Speaker B: I want one that's like, equal parts caramel, equal parts cookie, equal parts chocolate.
[00:19:52] Speaker A: Goddamn socialist. Get out of here.
Oh, man, that's one of the other ones that I wanted to tell you about. I forgot. Hey, speaking of MAGA, do we have that video of the We Are the World like parody? Oh, my God. All right, so I didn't know this thing existed.
[00:20:15] Speaker B: And it didn't hit your algorithm? Didn't hit my algorithm, apparently.
[00:20:21] Speaker A: Yeah.
There is a video featuring some of the biggest MAGA influencers. General Michael flyn the bearded tattoo face. What's his name? He's a rapper, a conservative rapper. And like I'll tell you right now, I've heard a couple of his songs to laugh at, and he uses the words Democrats a lot. And I just think about how much rap I listen to, and nobody's saying, hey, come back again. Fuck all the Republicans. Nobody's throwing out the GOP or anything like that, but oh, my God, what's his name?
Forgotto.
[00:21:01] Speaker B: Forgotto.
[00:21:02] Speaker A: Blow Forgiato blow. Yeah, he's a MAGA rapper.
[00:21:05] Speaker B: He's got a dumbass a beard shaped like one of those wild woolly guys. Like the magnet beard that are kind of put on with metal.
[00:21:14] Speaker A: Yes. Yes. It looks like the u from I forgot.
[00:21:18] Speaker B: That video looks like the Uber sign, but half of it is on his face.
[00:21:23] Speaker A: Yeah, that there's like, a dot in the middle where his mouth is. I feel like that's what's that called? An umlauts? Is that an umlauts from UBA?
Whatever. But anyway, yeah, we got this MAGA video. Can you show us the we are the world one? Oh, man, you guys, I haven't seen this.
[00:21:40] Speaker B: Like yeah, it's like all the fun, like, QAnon folks and all the people of color that are somehow right wing.
[00:21:47] Speaker A: Yes. All the colored people that are right wing call a spade a spade. Right. See what I did?
[00:21:57] Speaker B: No comments.
[00:21:58] Speaker A: No comments from the whites. I mean, the right. My bad.
Okay, so let's listen to this.
[00:22:07] Speaker B: I mean, there's at least a dozen, maybe 15 of them.
[00:22:11] Speaker A: So they were all wearing black shirts that say, freedom.
So you can burn down our buildings and we'll still find a home.
[00:22:21] Speaker B: So is this the real song, or is this like a parody? Like a right wing parody of it?
[00:22:26] Speaker A: I think this is like an adrenal, like an original song that they wrote.
Yeah. So this is, Umlaut's, Beard rapping right now.
So we have auto two general flyn.
[00:22:46] Speaker B: Sound like Kanye in fucking eight.
[00:22:49] Speaker A: I would be surprised if Kanye didn't come out right now. Just all masked up. All right. Oh, man. How long is that video?
I don't know.
[00:23:01] Speaker B: It looks like we are the world, but, you know, they're doing worse.
[00:23:04] Speaker A: Yeah. Yeah.
These are the guys that are, like, doing salvia in the car. Not in the parking lot, but just, like they're just in the car in, like, the parking garage.
I ate another twix.
[00:23:20] Speaker B: One more down.
[00:23:21] Speaker A: Oh, God. Does not feel good in my stomach.
[00:23:25] Speaker B: There's a lot of hearts in those comments. It's way more love than I think it deserves.
[00:23:34] Speaker A: Yeah. Hey, can we blow up some of these comments? These are really funny.
God bless General Flynn. We back him. Okay.

[00:24:04] Speaker A: Yo. The general. Like the grand general. Isn't that like a clan position?
[00:24:37] Speaker B: You know, the thing is, we're not niche enough. We need to be the conservative dads.
[00:24:44] Speaker A: Oh, you know what? Should we be the conservative dads?
[00:24:48] Speaker B: Honestly, if we would have Blaine would put up some buzzwords and we just hit them every show. That's all we need. We just have toss a flag behind us, get a couple of red hats.

[00:25:18] Speaker B: We're going to talk about who's treading on us this week.
[00:25:20] Speaker A: I'll tell you right now, I don't care about the blacks, the Indians, or the Chinese people.
[00:25:26] Speaker B: I don't have a privilege. It's a privilege to be white.
Is that too much?
Don't clip that, please.
[00:25:38] Speaker A: All right, we got them. And that's you guys. That's it. Thank you so much for coming up. This four year ruse is over. Trying to burn them.
And we're back.
All right. So sorry about that. Bennett, I know I'm not the first one to bring it up to you, and I'm sorry to just spring that on you, but yes, our new governor is taking down big food.
[00:26:10] Speaker B: Yeah, it's like know, because I saw I learned this from I don't know how to pronounce it's a puppet lamb that works. The Los Angeles Times.
[00:26:20] Speaker A: They let puppet lambs work at the.
[00:26:21] Speaker B: Los Angeles we're very liberal.
So this puppet was telling me about how these food additives and food dyes are found to be answers and rats and like, not nice, not nice. And he talks kind of funny, but he's very informative for a know, beats the shit out of lamb chop.
But yeah, the thing is, I have heard about this. Like, I've heard that Japan and the European Union and other countries flat out banned lots of things we put in our food because the FDA and also was a real delicate line to walk during the COVID area when FDA was approving things. And I know how the FDA operates, and I have to be like, okay, guys, let's go. This is the same FDA that had like illestra and olene and finfin and all the things, all the little political loopholes that the FDA allows to get things on our shelves.
[00:27:16] Speaker A: Get that money.
[00:27:17] Speaker B: Yeah. I have to be like, okay, let's make this COVID works this time.
[00:27:22] Speaker A: Yeah. The CDC and the FDA have the same graduation process. If you work at the FDA, chances are you're going to work at a very big corporation after for a lot of.
[00:27:37] Speaker B: Gavin mr. gavam, Newsoms our governor is banning certain things, like a lot, you know, some of the shit found on this table right here so that's we're going to eat it all.
[00:27:45] Speaker A: Yeah. I'm going to try and buy up.
[00:27:46] Speaker B: As much lab rat I'm going to.
[00:27:48] Speaker A: Try and buy up as much of this nasty ass candy as I can so I can start set up like an underground game.
[00:27:54] Speaker B: Forget the right wing dads. We to be the red dye smuggler.
[00:27:58] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:27:59] Speaker B: Bringing that shit in from Arizona RDS.
[00:28:02] Speaker A: Yeah, red dye smugglers.
Yeah. I'll get my boy. Put us a theme song together.
I hate when I keep saying this. When I was in Japan.
When I was in Hiroshima.
Shibuya no. I remember I was eating these strawberry gummies that we got at 711. They were delicious. And I was like, let me just look in the back. And I did my Google Translate. There's only like three or four ingredients in there. It was like sugar, sugar, some type of weird gum dye and MSG. And it was something else.
It was kind of ridiculous.
Strawberries were in there.
[00:28:45] Speaker B: Yeah. And it's also like I was eating before I ate this candy, I had a couple Trader Joe's of their sour gummies and I was like, what's in this stuff? And they used food coloring, like beet juice and spanura and things like that. What has natural colors that aren't like beets don't, cough, cancer and rats?
[00:29:09] Speaker A: Yeah.
Have you ever heard of misfits foods?
[00:29:12] Speaker B: I don't think so.
[00:29:14] Speaker A: There's these guys that used to own ugly produce or ugly veggies or something like butt ugly vegetables or some shit. I don't know what the company was named, but yeah, the whole point is that they would ship you vegetables that oh, imperfect produce. Yeah, imperfect foods, yes. So, yeah, they would send you, like, mutant eggplants and, like, bananas with three things.
[00:29:40] Speaker B: Stuff that wasn't yeah, we'd got it for a little while.
[00:29:42] Speaker A: Yes. For a pretty decent price, you get all this produce that people didn't want because of the way they looked. So Misfits Food is kind of like their rebrand because I think they got.
[00:29:52] Speaker B: A little too big even for me. They started pushing more stuff on you. It's like, okay, I know you want blueberries, but how about this chicken breast? Or how about some sausage? And eventually the shit, like all online stuff, it starts adding on and adding on. It became, like, impractical.
It was just, like, weird looking tomatoes. And now so that's where we are. Push other stuff on me.
[00:30:13] Speaker A: That's where we are at right now. I got Misfits Foods, and our first box was great. And I was like, this is dope. It's like $30.30 or $40. You get, like, a bunch of produce. And it was awesome.
And there's a reason I brought this up, but my only one complaint about them is when they don't have the limes you want, they'll send you a grapefruit. What the fuck am I going to do with this giant grapefruit?
[00:30:40] Speaker B: We're out of onions. How about four bananas? That's not even close. I don't know what you got there.
[00:30:45] Speaker A: Yeah, it's really bad.
I wanted the cuties, the little orange Mandarins. So, like, hey, we didn't have this. And I already ordered apples. So what they did was they tacked on different type of apples. So I had, like, the crisps and the fujis. I don't want to be bougie, but I hate the Fujis.
[00:31:04] Speaker B: Yeah, Fujis are trash.
[00:31:06] Speaker A: Fujis are trash.
[00:31:07] Speaker B: Once you have a Honey Crisp, it's hard. Or a Pink Lady. Yeah, you're hard to go back.
[00:31:11] Speaker A: Yeah, you're never going back. I just had one of those Amarani apples. I forgot what the fuck they're called. Anyway, I pulled a fast one at Whole Foods.
[00:31:22] Speaker B: Oh, yeah.
[00:31:22] Speaker A: They got one of these apples that are like $8 an apple. It was ridiculous. And I was like, man, is this going to even taste good? So I took that apple. I took, like, three of those apples, and I put it in a little green Basket, and I took, like, two Honey Crisps and I set on top of them. And then the lady just scanned the Honey Crisp, which came out to like, 499 for the pound. So I was like, great. Cool. I got home and I tasted the apple. Unreal. Yeah. Delicious apple.
[00:31:52] Speaker B: Holy shit.
[00:31:53] Speaker A: Like, so juicy. I was thinking, like, I could squeeze a slice and just apple juice would come out. But it was so crunchy and juicy. It was wild. But anyway, the reason I brought this up, the long walk that I'm making is they threw some candies in there. And these candies are healthy. Like these fruit snacks and shit. I wouldn't say healthy.
I like things with three or four ingredients in.
[00:32:18] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:32:18] Speaker A: And I saw this. They had this rope candy with little badger. It has like a little raccoon on the front that's like he uses the rope to scale buildings or something. But it's like I was like, okay, let me taste this. And it was actually pretty good. Ozo likes it. I like it. Shannon likes it. And it's only like four or five ingredients.
[00:32:34] Speaker B: It's not mean, you know, in a lot know, this is something I talk about the like, we have a large like it's very geographically big and shit has to last a long time to travel across those countries. So a lot of those the reasons we have crazy preservatives is for that reason. Because they got to go apples are grown in fucking wherever in Vermont and then has to go fucking. That's just the way our country has operated forever. Because we got to have what we want right now. And I need it all the entire year. I need this whole thing.
[00:33:08] Speaker A: I can't just eat Georgia peaches in fucking February, man. I need that shit now.
[00:33:12] Speaker B: I need peaches 365.
[00:33:14] Speaker A: Yeah. 360, motherfucking 5247.
[00:33:16] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:33:17] Speaker A: That's why I need my peaches. But yeah, there's going to be it looks like it's potentially going to affect 12,000 different products.
So this band, when does it go down?
When are they going to start outlawing? So it's supposed to kick off when.
[00:33:35] Speaker B: I think they start the next year. No, like the liberal army is going to bust indoors starting after show me your peeps on November 1.
[00:33:45] Speaker A: Show me your peeps.
It's such a weird time to announce it, too. Like right before Halloween.
[00:33:50] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:33:53] Speaker A: I can't wait to hear the right wing perspective on they're coming for our candy. Because we came for their stoves. We came for their dishwasher.
[00:34:01] Speaker B: Yeah. A few years back, it was like the biggie size, king size.
Those big drinks were banned in a lot of places.
[00:34:08] Speaker A: Yeah, because you don't need have you ever gotten a regular size drink at Carl's Jr. Oh, yeah.
[00:34:17] Speaker B: It's obscene.
[00:34:17] Speaker A: It's obscene. Nobody needs that much sprite.
[00:34:20] Speaker B: No.
[00:34:21] Speaker A: Nobody needs that much fucking sprite. It's fucking crazy. Or high sea orange.
I need that much high sea orange. Well, the lava burst. I'll tell you right now, I'm glad the lava burst is back.
[00:34:31] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:34:32] Speaker A: Big ups to the Golden Arches for bringing the lava burst back. There was a time where I was very sad because the lava burst don't.
[00:34:40] Speaker B: Taste the same without that high sea.
[00:34:42] Speaker A: It doesn't at all. When I'm eating a Big Mac, if I can't chase it with a lava burst, I'm not having it. I took a nice break from McDonald's because they didn't have the lava burst.
[00:34:51] Speaker B: No. As a consumer, I was hurt.
[00:34:54] Speaker A: I turned my back on them.
[00:34:55] Speaker B: Yeah. It was like Monopoly all over again.
[00:34:58] Speaker A: Oh, my God.
Let me tell you that's one thing I still get excited about McDonald's, Monopoly. I'm still coming for that million.
I'm going to get me a Boardwalk. I'll tell you, son, I'm going to get me a Boardwalk. I don't even think they're giving out a million anymore. I think they give you, like, Amazon card now.
[00:35:15] Speaker B: No, they just give you fries and.
[00:35:16] Speaker A: Call it a day. I think everyone's getting Park Place in Boardwalk these days. I remember the last time I looked at that board, actually, no, it was from Safeway. It wasn't a McDonald's they were doing that for. They were doing it. And I was like, oh, my God. But I was like I remember getting some of the boards, and I was like, wait the fuck? $20 towards a $50 grocery order. What the fuck?
You know how long I searched for this?
God damn.
But yeah. Sweet and spicy jam. Mambo sauce. What is that?
[00:35:52] Speaker B: Oh, there's new sauces at McDonald's. I haven't been brave enough to try them.
[00:35:56] Speaker A: McDonald's been coming out with some weird shit. This is not the first time we've brought up McDonald's coming out with some weird shit. Like that breakfast, that brunch burger. And now sweet and.
[00:36:08] Speaker B: Know. They're trying to see what stick like spaghetti at the wall. Seeing if it know.
[00:36:12] Speaker A: Oh, yeah.
[00:36:13] Speaker B: What is a mambo sauce?
[00:36:15] Speaker A: What is a mambo sauce? Comes from Washington, DC. It's a.
[00:36:22] Speaker B: Doing the due diligence. So it's mambo sauce. And what's the other one we're talking about? And how soon are they going to be banned in California?
[00:36:28] Speaker A: We got to get that shit quick.
[00:36:30] Speaker B: I know there's bromide in all of those.
[00:36:32] Speaker A: Yeah, dude. Mambo sauce. It's a red and orange sauce similar to a barbecue sauce.
[00:36:41] Speaker B: Barbecue sauce?
[00:36:42] Speaker A: Yeah. You're just talking about brown sugar barbecue sauce. That's what mambo sauce is.
[00:36:46] Speaker B: And what's the other one they came up with?
[00:36:48] Speaker A: Sweet and spicy jam.
[00:36:49] Speaker B: Sweet and spicy jam.
[00:36:51] Speaker A: Sweet and spicy jam. So spicy jam has been on the rise, and I'm still a part of the camp of stop making shit spicy.
Stop making shit spicy. It's not cute. I don't appreciate it. I know a lot of people's buttholes don't appreciate it, so stop making shit spicy.
[00:37:11] Speaker B: There's a hot chicken scourge in Los Angeles right now. You can't walk 10ft without hitting a hot chicken place here, dude.
[00:37:19] Speaker A: You know what sucks about that is that there is no thought into half these places. No, it's just hot for no reason. Eat dry ass chicken.
[00:37:26] Speaker B: It's not enjoyable. I don't want to have an emotional experience when I eat. No, I don't want to be in pain.
[00:37:35] Speaker A: The spicy craze.
If you don't come from a culture that experienced spice the way it's supposed to, all this spicy shit just comes off lazy. It just comes off like, all right, hit them with that ghost pepper. Call it a day.
I don't want to go to IHOP and have maple ghost pepper syrup on my just because it's fucking fun. And not by the way, when's the last time you went to IHOP?
[00:37:59] Speaker B: I'm more of a Denny's guy.
[00:38:03] Speaker A: We really need a screening process for this podcast. Oh, yeah.
[00:38:06] Speaker B: I could walk to the Denny's in our you know, that's the main reason, is that we walk there.
[00:38:11] Speaker A: Yeah. I'll tell you right now, I haven't been to an IHOP because there's just not one in walking distance.
[00:38:16] Speaker B: But we live in West Hollywood. There's one right there in Santa Monica Nat. And I walked there. A quick little quick aside story. One of the last times I had IHOP was also after a rap party and I got my usual order of the Rudy tootie fresh and fruity, nice blueberries on top. Ate it all, went home and promptly threw up. Purple.
[00:38:35] Speaker A: Oh, shit. Wait, this rap party, were you sober when you went?
[00:38:40] Speaker B: You might have been there. You might have been DJing, one of these rap parties.
Who knows? No, I was in the West Hollywood days, I think, before I knew you.
[00:38:47] Speaker A: Yeah, but I could have been there. You could have been there.
[00:38:51] Speaker B: But I remember distinctly he's like, that's really purple.
[00:38:54] Speaker A: Yeah, I love that.
I remember that it was really purple that you ate it. But you don't remember how it got there?
[00:39:03] Speaker B: No, I think it was probably a talent associated rap party.
[00:39:08] Speaker A: Those guys party right now.
[00:39:11] Speaker B: Yeah, it was a lot.
[00:39:12] Speaker A: Oh, I went to a rap party last week. I went to a rap party. Yeah, I was pretty mellow, actually. And I'll tell you right now, when you're working a rap party, like, I was DJing this rap party, when you're working a rap party, I notice that there's, like, this halo around my DJ booth that no one would cross because they just wanted to talk and chill.
[00:39:36] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:39:38] Speaker A: I've gone to two rap parties for this particular show in a row. They do, like, back to back seasons. And the first one I just put on a playlist, and these guys were turning up and they're, like, having a blast. I was like this one. And I think they were just burnt out because they just did a full.
[00:39:56] Speaker B: Season a month ago.
[00:39:59] Speaker A: They literally loaded out loaded into this place. And then I remember the last rap part. I was like, it was in September. Okay?
It was in August. So watching people walk in the door and immediately kind of whinge. And like, this music is so loud. And then kind of walk around the bar to the back. I was like, all right, let me turn it down. And as soon as I turn it down, one of their judges comes up. He's like, no, all the way up. I want to party. Spills his drink on my fucking turntables. And I was like, cool. Never doing this again. All right.
Ten years ago, I would have thought that was the coolest experience of my life. But right then and there I realized how old I was because I was just looking at an adult that was not acting like a fucking adult and got fucking I don't even think they had expensive whiskey. It was just like fucking speed rack whiskey on my goddamn controller.
[00:40:54] Speaker B: Goddamn millionaire spilled his Buffalo trace on keyboard.
[00:40:59] Speaker A: I was very upset with the fucking Johnny Will that was dripping from my controller. Was not stoked at so we've lost the plot. We've lost the plot.
[00:41:11] Speaker B: There's literally a skull eating candy in front of us. We can't stop talking about McDonald's.
[00:41:15] Speaker A: Yeah.
We wanted to talk about some of our favorite candies ones that we want our top fives and ones that year after year after year, we think need to get canceled. And we both know what it is. Candy corn.
[00:41:28] Speaker B: Of course.
[00:41:29] Speaker A: You're the worst candy corn. Get the fuck out of here.
[00:41:31] Speaker B: You're our top consistently bad.
[00:41:33] Speaker A: It's so terrible. I don't care if it makes a piece of corn. I found that out in my thirty s. I still didn't care.
[00:41:39] Speaker B: No, just get that shit out of here.
[00:41:43] Speaker A: You know the sleeper I talked about this last year. You know that sleeper candy that's really good. It's the one that looks like a strawberry wrapper that has a strawberry filling in.
[00:41:51] Speaker B: Grandma candy? Yeah.
[00:41:53] Speaker A: So same shit. We never know what the fuck that's called.
We never know what it's called. That grandma candy. I called it my auntie candy. Yeah, it's just the one that's always in the bowl.
[00:42:02] Speaker B: It's in a dish.
[00:42:03] Speaker A: Yeah, there it is. Like a crystal one or a gold one. Do you remember what color the bowl was that you used to eat yours out of?
[00:42:09] Speaker B: Well, my great grandparents, they had a bunch of cookie jars. Like old creepy cookie jars. You kind of rummage through various ones and they would be and hope they're from this decade.
[00:42:19] Speaker A: Yeah.
Is it just really called old fashioned strawberry?
[00:42:23] Speaker B: Yeah, it just looks like a strawberry. Strawberry bond always tell if they're really old, if it's just all solid, if the gel is turned into rock in the middle.
[00:42:31] Speaker A: So I used to remember was that Peggy Bundy would be like, my bon bons. And I'm like, what the fuck is a bon bon? I can't believe she was eating these.
These are strawberry bon bonds, right?
[00:42:44] Speaker B: No, a bon bon is like a chocolate situation.
[00:42:47] Speaker A: Oh, the bon bonds. Oh, that's a I see.
[00:42:52] Speaker B: Also with like, ice cream. Yeah.
[00:42:53] Speaker A: Okay. My bon bonds.
Old fashioned strawberry bon bon. That's okay.
[00:43:01] Speaker B: I think it's just old fashioned strawberry.
[00:43:02] Speaker A: I don't know where you get strawberry bon bonds. By carb? Was it by Camby?
I don't know about that. Is that the knockoff brand? Is that what we're looking at?
[00:43:14] Speaker B: Well, I think we need to define what a bon bon is.
How can it be a hard candy and a chocolate covered ice cream.
[00:43:23] Speaker A: You know what? See, this is why you're the smart one in the group. I don't even ask questions. I'm like, oh, they're both bon bonds. Great.
[00:43:28] Speaker B: I mean, maybe it implies, like, something with a filling in the middle. Like, maybe that's what a bon bon is.
[00:43:33] Speaker A: A bon bon is probably a hard shelled candy or chocolate with filling in the middle.
Yeah, I guess that's what it is. That's exactly what it is. Yeah, you nailed it. Okay.
Fucking mystery solve.
[00:43:49] Speaker B: Fat man expert over here.
[00:43:51] Speaker A: Hey, speaking of fat man experts, I want to tell a little funny story that happened earlier today that you were here for, but I wanted everyone in the pod to hear. Our producer came in to set up our studio early because we were on the road, and we did a mobile episode. So I decided to bring him back some food. I brought him back some food. We picked up some food, brought him back some food, and he took a bite. He was like, oh, that's great. And then he came in here and named the restaurant of the chicken that we got based on the taste of the chicken, and I thought that was very impressive. He was very disappointed in himself. I thought it was impressive.
[00:44:29] Speaker B: It's got a distinct batter to it.
[00:44:32] Speaker A: Yes, you did mention it has a distinct batter. I would say that it tastes like the jollibee hot.
[00:44:41] Speaker B: Oh, I've never had a jollibee bee.
[00:44:43] Speaker A: Okay. Jollibee stuff.
So the thing is here it is. It's not, like, the best, but I would think that it's the best fast food chicken I've ever had.
[00:44:54] Speaker B: Okay.
[00:44:54] Speaker A: I think it's better than Popeyes. I think it's better than KFC.
[00:44:57] Speaker B: Whoa, now we're talking.
[00:44:59] Speaker A: Yeah, I think yeah, I think I'll.
[00:45:01] Speaker B: Make a drive to a Jollibee. That's the statement.
[00:45:04] Speaker A: Yeah, I think we're going to get some chicken, do a taste test, a blind taste test, because I'll tell you, jollibee for me, and I might be a little nostalgic because I've never had it sober. I might nostalgic for a good time.
I used to live down the street, so I lived the club. I'd be walking up, get me some Jollibee and a little cup of a little spaghetti. Sweet spaghetti in the cup. So, yeah, it was pretty good for me.
I think it's not bad. I think if you live in La. And you live next to a Jollibee, you should try it.
[00:45:37] Speaker B: They have spaghetti there too, right?
[00:45:38] Speaker A: Yeah, it's it's it's I'll tell you.
[00:45:42] Speaker B: Right now, I didn't chain. Right, right.
[00:45:44] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:45:44] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:45:45] Speaker A: I didn't try it for the longest time because I thought that having fried chicken next to spaghetti was disgusting.
[00:45:50] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:45:51] Speaker A: I was like, what are you doing?
[00:45:53] Speaker B: How could you do both?
[00:45:54] Speaker A: And honestly, you just need to get a little buz on when you go in there and everything looks a little good. I think that's really what it is, because I'll tell you how many times when you were younger, you walk into your kitchen and be like, all right, I have this, that and that, that you would never put on a plate together. Yeah, but it was good old quesadilla hot dog.
[00:46:16] Speaker B: Yeah. I once made a bologna quesadilla in college. It was terrible, but I ate it.
[00:46:21] Speaker A: Yeah.
Have you done the hot dog and mac and cheese?
[00:46:25] Speaker B: Oh, of course.
[00:46:25] Speaker A: Yeah. You've done the hot dog and mac.
[00:46:27] Speaker B: And cheese with the fire sauce from Taco Bell?
[00:46:29] Speaker A: Yeah. Okay.
That hurt my booty hole.
[00:46:34] Speaker B: I've downgraded just to handle the fire.
[00:46:39] Speaker A: There's a mango habanero sauce that I used to love, and it was like I felt like a junkie using it, I'll tell you, right? It was in my fridge. I would pop it on some stuff, I'd eat it, and I'd be on the toilet for the rest of the night. And so I remember I was a roommate with my sister when I was in, like I lived in Northridge. And I'd be like, cool, I'm just going to be blowing up the bathroom tonight. I would literally just look and be like, okay, I'm cool with this.
[00:47:08] Speaker B: I'm making this choice consciously.
[00:47:10] Speaker A: I know that this is going to happen, and I'm going to make it my. We just pulled up the story Japan about Japan has a new shrimp nuggets. Like, when we left Japan is when they introduced the shrimp nuggets at McDonald's. At McDonald's.
[00:47:25] Speaker B: I've had a shrimp patty before.
[00:47:27] Speaker A: The shrimp burger is fan fucking eevee burger. Is that what the Ebi burger? Eevee burger. Oh, man.
[00:47:36] Speaker B: Yeah, there was a joint back home in Lafayette that does a shrimp burger, which is pretty solid.
[00:47:42] Speaker A: That sounds like they know what they're doing. It's not crawfish. Right? You know, I feel about crawfish.
[00:47:45] Speaker B: Yeah. They're both bottom feeders, but one doesn't.
[00:47:49] Speaker A: Taste like a fish's butt.
All right. I don't care how much trash you eat, as long as you don't taste like the inside of a fish.
[00:47:56] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:47:56] Speaker A: Then I'm fine.
[00:47:57] Speaker B: No, you need to have some good crawfish.
[00:47:59] Speaker A: Okay, I'll have some good ones. I've had some good ones with you, but I thought that was a fluke. Anyway, so what is your best chocolate bar?
[00:48:08] Speaker B: All right, back here.
[00:48:08] Speaker A: Back in the Halloween back here. What is your best chocolate bar?
[00:48:12] Speaker B: Here it is. And it's not a chocolate I mean, candy bars come and go. I think they're always around.
You could always get a Milky Way or Snickers or Twix 18 Twix like we had earlier.
[00:48:25] Speaker A: Oh, God.
[00:48:26] Speaker B: But for me, I'm all about the seasonally shaped Reese's.
[00:48:29] Speaker A: Oh, whoa.
[00:48:30] Speaker B: Give me a Reese's shaped, like, not a circle. And I am there.
[00:48:34] Speaker A: That's what does it for you.
[00:48:35] Speaker B: That's it. Like, give me the tree, give me the egg, give me the pumpkin.
[00:48:39] Speaker A: Okay.
[00:48:40] Speaker B: If I'm picking up my prescription, like, to get me old pumpkin on the out when I'm checking out I feel you.
[00:48:47] Speaker A: All right.
[00:48:48] Speaker B: Top tier. And then for me, I don't know if I told this story last year, I probably did, but it's been a year. It's been a year.
[00:48:53] Speaker A: I can remember one's listening to that episode.
[00:48:54] Speaker B: Growing up in my neighborhood, it was like a big kid's neighbor. It almost felt like TV Halloween, like so many kids running around. But we had one guy at one of the borders of our neighborhood who worked for was a Hostess driver, and he always gave out Hostess Cakes. So literally it looked like fucking Studio 54 outside wrapped around the block, like kids waiting in line to get their free Twinkie and Ding Dong. But you had to. It was like, that dude must premiere giveaway.
[00:49:26] Speaker A: Yeah, see, we don't get too many trick or treaters on this side of town.
You know what's crazy is there are a bunch of kids on the block, but every parent's like and I think it's messed up. And then I'll make a corner down my street and I'll see one of the ladies of the night working a corner, and I'll be like, Maybe they're right not letting the kids walk around.
[00:49:51] Speaker B: There are a couple of motels. Not that's why within walking distance. Not an IHOP.
[00:49:56] Speaker A: There's a lot of churches and a lot of hookers and it just doesn't compute. But what are you going to do? That's la for you.
[00:50:07] Speaker B: So where do you guys go trick or treating? Do you still go here or do you go somewhere else to go?
[00:50:10] Speaker A: So we usually go up into La Quinata.
La Quina, they got like this little Third Street thing going on where all the stores storefronts, like, set up trick or treating desk. So you're walking into restaurants and stores that are open after hours. And it's good for the kids.
[00:50:28] Speaker B: Yeah, it's just like a sea of.
[00:50:30] Speaker A: Children, so it's great for all the kids to go around and it's fun. So that's the one. I might be going to a pet cemetery party for kids, which seems weird.
[00:50:39] Speaker B: But I already like the movie. Or we're going to a pet cemetery.
[00:50:43] Speaker A: Going to an actual pet cemetery. And I'm the type of person to click maybe to everything.
[00:50:47] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:50:48] Speaker A: And I didn't read it. And then when the confirmation came in, I was like, uhoh, yeah.
Why would one of my friends send me this?
They don't know me at all.
[00:50:59] Speaker B: Yeah, sometimes clicking no is better.
[00:51:02] Speaker A: When was the last time you went trick or treating without a kid?
Do you remember how old you were when you stopped?
[00:51:09] Speaker B: Me and my group of friends were like it was like a handful of us and it was the year after we should have I remember going knocking on houses and seeing other people giving out candy that were my age, okay?
Not in shitty costumes, trying to get free candy. So I want to say I don't think 7th grade, but definitely 6th grade, I think was oh, shit. Like deep. It was maybe fifth.
[00:51:32] Speaker A: Oh, mine was after.
[00:51:33] Speaker B: Oh, really?
[00:51:34] Speaker A: Mine was not pretty.
[00:51:35] Speaker B: Oh, no, mine was not to shave before or what?
[00:51:38] Speaker A: Well, no, I remember when I was in 10th grade.
[00:51:41] Speaker B: Oh, wow.
[00:51:41] Speaker A: I was in 10th grade. I went to a house with a couple of my friends and a woman yelled at us and said, we are too old to be trickortreating. She's like, you're too old to be trickortreating. We're like, what? We just came in for the candy. She's like, that guy's not even dressed up. And I turned around, my Budy's like, just got off practice.
[00:51:58] Speaker B: Yeah, I worked at overnight. What do you expect?
[00:52:00] Speaker A: He's just as a football player. Get off the back, lady.
But yeah, I was definitely too old to be trick or treating.
[00:52:11] Speaker B: But I think it was 7th grade because I remember 8th grade handing out candy the next year with my dad.
[00:52:16] Speaker A: Yeah, eigth grade. I was still running around. 9th grade. I remember we went to the premier towns, like, yeah, let's just go here.
We did some other questionable stuff, and they went and got some candy. And then 10th grade, we met up and we're like, it's Halloween. Let's go see if we can get some candy first. House. No, too old. What are you doing? Get out of here. And we're like, guys, maybe we shouldn't. And we just looked around the block and we're like the only adult, like.
[00:52:44] Speaker B: 2Ft taller than everybody.
[00:52:46] Speaker A: Everybody else walking around either had, like, anybody else our age or our height had a kid attached to them. So we shouldn't have been there. And that's why I learned my lesson.
[00:52:56] Speaker B: Yeah, you got to get a kid.
[00:52:58] Speaker A: Yeah, that's why I made one.
[00:53:00] Speaker B: You know what? I'm going to get back in this candy rack.
[00:53:02] Speaker A: I was trying to get back in the candy game. Finally, I can.
[00:53:05] Speaker B: My kid's too cool for school.
Yeah, I was working. So the first year we all went trickortreating together. Like, older dude was a firefighter. Little dude was a dalmatian. I was a fire. Got like a fire printing blanket from the Amazon and just wore that.
[00:53:24] Speaker A: You were the fire? I was the very conceited.
Hot stuff coming.
[00:53:31] Speaker B: You know, like, we made it like a block. And then last year, the younger dude, I was working, so my mom took him trick or treating. And the younger dude made like I don't think he made it out of the garage before he had a meltdown. I think mom stayed with him. So hopefully this year we'll actually do some trick or treating. We haven't picked out costumes yet for them.
[00:53:52] Speaker A: Oh, Ozo told me what he wants to oh, yeah? Yeah.
So weird.
[00:53:58] Speaker B: I'm into it.
[00:53:59] Speaker A: It's like, hey, what do you want to he's like, for Halloween? I want to be water.
What? He's like, I want to be water.
[00:54:11] Speaker B: Like a bottle of water. Like an ocean.
[00:54:14] Speaker A: That's what I asked. He's like, no, like a water guy. I want to be a water guy. I'm like, oh, like a firefighter. No, I want to be water.
And I think he watched the movie Elemental and really connected with the water. Dude, I haven't seen the movie yet.
It looks like absolute garbage.
[00:54:35] Speaker B: But it's fine. I mean, no, it's a phone in Pixar. I feel like they've been making a.
[00:54:39] Speaker A: Lot of phone in Pixars lately.
The last three Pixars have been phone in Pixars, if I remember correctly. I think it was strange world. And there was another one. I think there was another one that wasn't that. Oh, Luca.
[00:54:55] Speaker B: Oh, Luca. I missed. I think I tried to watch a.
[00:54:57] Speaker A: Couple well, Riah came out, and that was good.
[00:54:59] Speaker B: That was fun. That was surprisingly good. Yeah.
[00:55:01] Speaker A: So yeah, I think it was Luca buz lightyear.
[00:55:04] Speaker B: Was that buz lightyear sucked.
[00:55:06] Speaker A: It sucked. But I liked it.
[00:55:08] Speaker B: Really?
[00:55:08] Speaker A: I only liked it because I guess I didn't like it.
[00:55:14] Speaker B: To be honest.
[00:55:15] Speaker A: I didn't like it.
I really, really tried to I liked the bad guy in the movie, but it kind of didn't make sense.
[00:55:23] Speaker B: Wasn't the bad guy just buz lightyear from the future?
[00:55:25] Speaker A: Yes. Spoiler alert. Jesus Christ.
But yeah, luca stinker.
[00:55:32] Speaker B: I didn't see the good dinosaur either.
[00:55:34] Speaker A: The good dinosaur was not bad. Yeah, it was not bad.
[00:55:37] Speaker B: I think we did watch that one.
[00:55:38] Speaker A: That one's not bad.
[00:55:39] Speaker B: I think Miles is really freaked out by the kid at first, and the kid shows up, and he's all fucking.
[00:55:43] Speaker A: Wild, and he's scary.
[00:55:48] Speaker B: Turning red I like, too.
[00:55:49] Speaker A: Turning red was so that's what it was. It was Luca lightyear and Elemental, they were just not yeah, yeah, not good. Turning red was good.
[00:55:56] Speaker B: And then soul.
[00:56:03] Speaker A: Oh, man, you're a good guy.
I like that.
Soul raspberry can't wait till our can.
[00:56:13] Speaker B: You believe a black man has a soul?
Let's not clip that out either.
[00:56:26] Speaker A: We got you by the balls right now.
[00:56:28] Speaker B: Case closed.
[00:56:29] Speaker A: And as I mentioned before, in past podcast, bennett has most frequently been the only white person in the room. So it's very funny. You're about to get your black car.
[00:56:40] Speaker B: We're about to hit exhibit just that was exhibit Z.
[00:56:48] Speaker A: All right, so, yeah, I want to take another break before we come back with our pulpit.
[00:56:54] Speaker B: You didn't tell me, what's your top candy?
[00:56:55] Speaker A: Oh, my top top candies. Okay. I want to go chocolate gummies.
[00:56:59] Speaker B: No, get specific.
[00:57:01] Speaker A: Get specific.
[00:57:02] Speaker B: For me, I'm gummies over everything. But honestly, the seasonal Reese's, I think, is the pinnacle. It's the S tier for doing, like, an Internet ranking.
[00:57:10] Speaker A: You know what a little mini Milky Way is one I'll always pick out of the bunch. I love it. But I'll tell you, like, my crypt, my Kryptonite right now is the Rolo.
[00:57:19] Speaker B: The Rolo.
[00:57:20] Speaker A: I fucks with the Rolo.
[00:57:22] Speaker B: I mean, it's basically a Milky way.
[00:57:26] Speaker A: Yeah, but they don't fool around. The nougat, they get right down the meat and potatoes.
[00:57:31] Speaker B: Just caramel and chocolate. Caramel, chocolate, bullet shaped.
[00:57:34] Speaker A: Yeah. Just fucking fire rocket them in your mouth.
You could close it back up, but.
[00:57:44] Speaker B: That is an unfair assumption that I'm going to seal it back up afterwards.
Yeah, I'm eating these by the column. I'm not eating by the disc.
[00:57:54] Speaker A: It's the office. Donut test when you don't want to be the guy to take the whole glaze in the office and you take the stupid fork and you cut it down the middle, and by the time you get to the door, you just reach back and grab the other. You turn come on. I'm going to eat this whole donut. Let's be honest, all right? Don't judge me, Susan. All right?
But I love the Rolo.
If there was a Rolo in a Milky Way, I'm going with the Rolo. But I think the one that trumps all, it has to be the Picchios. I love Mia Picchio.
[00:58:25] Speaker B: What is that, like the gummy peaches?
[00:58:26] Speaker A: Yeah, the gummy peaches. The Haribol picchios. Yeah.
[00:58:31] Speaker B: That's a good taste.
[00:58:32] Speaker A: It's great, man. And I'll tell you right now, haribo makes the best candy on the planet. Yeah, it really is. When it comes to gummies, nobody else fucks with them.
[00:58:40] Speaker B: Haribo, those Germans or Austrians, I don't know where they're from originally.
[00:58:45] Speaker A: I say it in a way that makes it seem Japanese, but I think it's German.
[00:58:49] Speaker B: Yeah. Hey, they know what they're doing.
[00:58:50] Speaker A: They know what the fuck they're doing.
[00:58:51] Speaker B: They got one thing right, maybe.
[00:58:57] Speaker A: Yeah. Only one. Only one.
It's a bad time to make that joke. All right.
[00:59:02] Speaker B: We're not oh, they are German.
[00:59:04] Speaker A: Yeah, they're German.
[00:59:06] Speaker B: And you can say, is it what is it? Yeah, you're right. Haribo. Yeah, haribo.
[00:59:11] Speaker A: Yeah. Say.
[00:59:17] Speaker B: When I went to Italy, there's different Haribos in Europe, and one of them is just called the Dumb Dumb, because I guess it's like pacifier shapes. I enjoyed that a lot. Those are very also wine country Haribos, which are like different wine, grape flavored.
[00:59:34] Speaker A: What?
[00:59:36] Speaker B: Yeah. It's a whole new world.
[00:59:38] Speaker A: Yeah. I should have reached out to you to send back some candy.
[00:59:41] Speaker B: It wouldn't have made it back, to be quite honest.
[00:59:44] Speaker A: I would have just sent you the money. I'm like ship it. I don't want this anywhere near you for fuck however long.
[00:59:49] Speaker B: This is not carry on candy.
[00:59:52] Speaker A: It's like, hey, Ben, I sent you a lockbox.
[00:59:57] Speaker B: Throw that key in the fucking ocean.
[00:59:59] Speaker A: I gave you a dead man switch, all right? On your left hand.
If you try and open this shit, it's blown off your arm. Fucking show up two months later, no arm. I got no gummies.
[01:00:12] Speaker B: I don't know what happened. Gummies didn't show up.
[01:00:17] Speaker A: But, yeah. We're going to come back after this break with more Papa Don't Preach.
And gentlemen, we're back. Thank you so much for staying tuned. And listening to us for this last hour as we tickled your eardrums. But yeah, we're going to be calling it quit soon. Are we doing an episode next week? We don't know.
[01:01:06] Speaker B: I'm be out of town.
[01:01:07] Speaker A: Yeah, I don't think we're doing it.
[01:01:08] Speaker B: We could sneak one in before Halloween while we talk even more about Halloween.
[01:01:11] Speaker A: Oh, yeah, definitely our pre Halloween episode. Yeah.
[01:01:16] Speaker B: I'm someone who likes nat and I are both we're not like the big Spooky people, man. We're not like Nightmare Before Christmas people, but we like spooky stuff. We like watching horror movies together. But I don't know, I think there's a fine line between someone who's a know, I'm wearing a fucking alien shirt, but I'm not someone who has like I think Nightmare Before Christmas is the line in the sand.
[01:01:38] Speaker A: You think that's it so like if you're a Nightmare Before Christmas, you enjoy the fun part of spooky.
[01:01:43] Speaker B: Well, I think you enjoy the overly.
[01:01:47] Speaker A: You'Re trying to put it out in.
[01:01:48] Speaker B: The world like how spooky you are. Same people that are like the haunted mansion. Like, Disney people. The people that like I tossed that in the Night before Christmas. People in the same bucket of like, you're a little too cheesy Halloween for me. I'm going to do Halloween my way. I like scary stuff. I like spooky stuff. I like ghosts. I like candy, but I don't need to have Jack Skellington and everything.
[01:02:08] Speaker A: So you're like a Disney Halloween person opposed to like a Universal Studios haunted horror.
[01:02:16] Speaker B: Like, I like scary movies, but I don't want to be like I said, I've had this set on the show before. High tolerance for pain, low tolerance for surprise. So I don't want to be surprised. I don't want to be jump scared because that's all it is. I know it's just a person in a mask. I'm not like putting myself in the zombie. Like, oh my god, that zombie might be real.
[01:02:36] Speaker A: No, I just don't want to be surprised. Yes, and I'm with a I don't mind being scared, but it's like that much adrenaline doesn't get me know, like.
[01:02:48] Speaker B: That being said, one of my first jobs here in La. Is. I worked the Halloween Horror nights.
[01:02:54] Speaker A: Of course you did.
[01:02:55] Speaker B: In Six Flags. Because I went to school up by Six Flags. So one of my sweet like he was working there and his friend was working there. So they got me a job there. So I did during the Halloween though. FrightFest. FrightFest is what they call it.
[01:03:09] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:03:10] Speaker B: Six Flags FrightFest.
[01:03:11] Speaker A: I believe that's FrightFest.
[01:03:12] Speaker B: So I got to be one of the not like the scary guy in a costume. But really I would press no, the thing is I was like a theater tech, like a behind the stage, got you building sets. And they made me show up and like, okay, you guys have to audition too. And I was like, no, I'm not going to do that, and I didn't.
[01:03:29] Speaker A: They just put you in a Jason mask and tell you to walk around. You're done. You don't have to do anything.
[01:03:34] Speaker B: I think that's a lot of nightmare for Christmas kids that are there. Like, the theater kids that want to be spooky and scary and have characters. And I just wanted a paycheck, but they'd stick me in the maze. So one of my sections was like, that, put in a little box. And I had a couple of buttons. And one of these buttons there was like the maze was like a haunted theater, okay? And someone was giving a tour of theater for prospective buyers. It was like a red jacket lady.
She's like, hey, this is this, and follow me this way, and that kind of deal. So one of the rooms was a spider room. It was like a bunch of spiders and monofilament hanging down. And I had a button that pressed a sprinkler that made everybody did, like, water real quick and freaked everybody out. And the other one I had was an air jet.
So when people walked around the corner, like, I could spray them right in the face. Yeah, the goal was the best one is like, if they had long hair, is to hit it right as they walked past. Their hair in the back would straight up.
So I'd literally get fucking candy and eat candy and press my buttons. And then my other job, which was it was more work.
Now you're wet, now you got air on you.
But I had the end of the ride. It was like the person that was giving the tour was a red jacket realtor person. She's like, hey, here you go. Take my card. And then she gets ripped out of the scene, and all these monsters come out and usher the people out. So I was the person, she'd like, lead up against the wall, and I'd hook the fly rig onto her and literally just fucking yank the hell out of them. They'd fly back in a crash pad. And that was my job. I loved that. That was a real fun one, too.
All these five foot two wannabe actresses and just giving them whiplash, whipping them back so hard.
[01:05:20] Speaker A: Bennett big show. Miller.
[01:05:25] Speaker B: That was good. It was fun to scare that's good and eat candy at the same time.
[01:05:31] Speaker A: Oh, man. Well, yeah, I don't think I've never been a spooky spooky person.
It's not for me. It's never been for me. I remember Knott's Berry Farm got in trouble a long time. I don't know if you remember, knott's Berry Farm was like nine of the living Dead. Like, they would shut off all the lights and people would just start running.
Yeah, a lot of people got hurt at Knottsbury Farm. They had to change their shit. No, it was bad. You'd go into the bathroom, like, you'd go pee. The lights would shut off and start flickering.
They would start rattling the stalls.
[01:06:04] Speaker B: Wow.
[01:06:04] Speaker A: And when people start it became such a cult event that people who didn't work for the park started to participate in scaring people. And it got bad. It got bad.
[01:06:15] Speaker B: You got to have rules.
[01:06:16] Speaker A: Yeah. They're not the type of park that has enough security to control when things get out of control. But yeah, fuck. Not Berry Farm for you.
Do you remember the worst costume you ever had where you're like you look.
[01:06:31] Speaker B: At pictures, you're like as a kid or as an adult?
[01:06:35] Speaker A: I mean, as a kid, you really don't have a choice. But I say as an adult. But if there's one as a kid, if there's one that sticks out as the worst costume you've ever had, hit me with it.
[01:06:45] Speaker B: I was a pirate for a few years because I couldn't think of anything else. Yeah, one year, my grandma, God rest her soul, she was a seamstress. She made like a Viking costume for me. But it was like real 80s, like ripped denim, kind of like robe thing I had on and a plastic Viking helmet. It looked like I was like 1988 fucking Viking.
The denim vest. Like a little ripped up denim vest.
[01:07:14] Speaker A: Did you ask for this?
[01:07:16] Speaker B: No, that was one of the costumes given to me.
[01:07:18] Speaker A: Oh, she's like, you're going to be an 80s Viking.
[01:07:21] Speaker B: I was a Viking. It just so happened to be the.
[01:07:26] Speaker A: Gotcha, gotcha, gotcha.
I remember one I was just slapping some things together, but I went through a phase where I was a Disney villain every year.
[01:07:38] Speaker B: Oh, I remember one of those. Halloweens.
[01:07:40] Speaker A: Yes, I was a Disney villain every year. But all the best villains were female. So I was just in drag every know. I did Ursula.
[01:07:53] Speaker B: Ursula was the one I saw.
[01:07:54] Speaker A: Ursula was a big hit. I did purple face.
[01:07:57] Speaker B: Yeah, you did. Purple face.
[01:07:58] Speaker A: I did purple face.
My kid's mom made the outfit like she worked night and day on the fucking octopus.
[01:08:04] Speaker B: Yeah, the tentacles. Yeah, I remember I made the hair.
[01:08:08] Speaker A: And everyone said it wouldn't work. And I was super proud of the hair. I basically bought a mullet from Party City, hung it upside down and sprayed it white. And the paint, like, hardened it so it made her exact hairdo. And so I was like, pretty proud of it. I was proud of it because everyone told me it wouldn't work. And it would work.
But the worst costume I had was Coela Deville. That was the worst one I had because everybody thought I was just like so first when I left my house, I forgot the jacket because it know, Los Angeles in October. So it was a million degrees outside.
I forgot the jacket. One of my friends was supposed to be a Dalmatian. Did not do it. So I was just like and I'm.
[01:08:50] Speaker B: Sure like, the white face painting was no good either.
[01:08:52] Speaker A: Well, I didn't decide to go to whiteface because I always had this problem when I dressed up where I was like, this kind of sucks that I couldn't be like a black character. There was such a small window of black characters. I could like I remember when I went to a Vice Versa dance, I was Lenny Kravitz because he had to be a rock star. I'm like, I know one can't be Hootie.
[01:09:18] Speaker B: Let's see. There's Hendrix. There's Hootie. There's Lenny.
[01:09:22] Speaker A: Yeah. I was like, I'm going to be Lenny.
But.
[01:09:27] Speaker B: That'S true. Representation matters in both good and evil.
[01:09:31] Speaker A: Our producer is trying to get us the villain from Princess and the Frog. I graduated in 2004. This wasn't an option. All right.
This was a good five years after I graduated. So I wouldn't have been able to do this one. But yeah, I ended up looking like some old creepy lady.
[01:09:50] Speaker B: I looked like a witch.
[01:09:52] Speaker A: I had this black dress on with like a black wig with one white stripe down it. And it was just everyone's like, what are I'm supposed I'm a woman. I'm a woman. You look so funny.
[01:10:05] Speaker B: Oh, my god, he looks so good.
[01:10:07] Speaker A: I'm like, this is an epic fail. But yeah, I remember one of the years what I wanted to be was Hades from Hercules, which was just it was easy. I just didn't get the blue like, I flubbed on the blue paint. I had everything else. And I flubbed on the blue paint. I didn't get it. But the worst one I had was Coela de Ville. Like, oh, god, that was such a train wreck.
[01:10:29] Speaker B: One of my worst was like as an adult is like I was working a night. It was like Halloween night. And I was like, fuck it. I just grabbed something from Walmart. So I grabbed like a roman. It was like one of the last two costumes. It was like Halloween night. So it was like a Roman costume with like a little golden thing. And everyone thought it was Jesus because the beard and my hair. So next year I was like, fuck, it was going to be Jesus. So I wore that. It was like a red sash white cheap outfit. I made a little cardboard halo with, like a hair thing so I could put it on. Had a little Led light so it looked like kind of like, oh, nice. A little glowy thing. I got so many free drinks because everyone wants to buy Jesus a drink on the streets of New Orleans. Like. Hey.
[01:11:09] Speaker A: Jesus.
[01:11:10] Speaker B: At any bar I went know I was getting stuff bought for me because everyone wants know fat Jesus. Is that life of the party?
[01:11:17] Speaker A: You know? Like, I always wanted to dress up as a cow with a halo so people can ask like, hey, what are you? I can be like, I'm a holy cow. And I never did it I never did it.
I'm a big pun guy. If you haven't been listening to this podcast for the last four years, I'm a big pun guy. So I always try to figure out what be a fun thing to do. What's a fun thing to do. I come up with this idea. I go to the store, and I'm like, I'm not spending $100 to make this fucking costume. It's not going to happen. So I always abandon it.
This year I'm skipping it. As you see, there's no decorations up in the studio for our art department.
But yeah, when I got to I'm skipping Halloween this year, I think. Yeah, I think so.
[01:12:00] Speaker B: I don't know what I'm going to dress up as. I think we're about to go on a trip, and I think we're going to go Halloween shopping when we go make the kids decide, like, goddamn it, decide. What do you want to be?
[01:12:10] Speaker A: I know what you should be.
[01:12:11] Speaker B: What's that?
[01:12:11] Speaker A: Texas T. Like, you should be the letter oh, with spurs and some guns. So when somebody asks you what you.
[01:12:19] Speaker B: Are, like, I'm Texas T.
That's not bad.
[01:12:23] Speaker A: I'm a big pun guy. I told you. Big Pun guy. I really like, so what is the best costume you think you've ever hmm?
[01:12:32] Speaker B: I mean, Jesus is up there because Jesus was up very popular one.
[01:12:36] Speaker A: I think Ursula was popular. But I think my favorite one you can go. I'll give you a second thing. My favorite costume of all time is and it was a group, so we all dressed up as wrestlers. Like raw era wrestlers. And I was the godfather. My buddy Pac was the rock. Buddy Dylan was Hollywood. No. My budy Ron was Hollywood. Hulk Hogan budy Dylan was Ric Flair.
We had our one budy, Eddie, and I hope he's listening to this, because he was just like, one of those friends who can never get anything right. But he came dressed as nacho libre.
He's like he's a wrestler. Like, yeah, but you don't get the assignment.
[01:13:15] Speaker B: He's not a real.
[01:13:17] Speaker A: Yeah. And what made that outfit so great is that we ended up getting in a wrestling match at some random college party in San Luis Obispo. And it started inside, and we were beating up each other. It ended up spilling out outside where a crowd gathered, started to chant and cheer.
My buddy Pac clotheslined.
My budy Ron, who was dressed as Hulk Hogan, so he didn't have a shirt on. We're on gravel, and he fully committed, went lateral and landed on this thing. My buddy Pac comes up to give him the people's elbow. Everybody was screaming. He landed the elbow, he pinned him, and we ran out of the house. After I took a chair to Dylan's head. It was amazing. It was an amazing event. And we just got the hell out of there. And we were, like, leaving. Like, oh, my God. Did that just happen? Did we just put on a show? And this is like stuff before social media. So it's just a memory. It just lives in this memory. I'll try and get pictures from some buddies for our gram, but yeah, I would say that was the best costume that we had, and I think because it's just tied to so much amazing stuff that happened that night. But yeah.
[01:14:25] Speaker B: What's yours?
I've never had a great costume. My costume is usually thrown together or very simple, but my first New Orleans college, Halloween, it's obviously huge. It's a big costume city anyway. But I wore a robe in a white tank top and, like, boxer shorts and sandals, and I was just your dad, so I had, like, a newspaper. So just asking kids, make sure you don't drink so much. Hey, what's your favorite class? And it was like, just a stupid thing, but I ended up not my daddy. Yeah, I ended up in the Loyola dorms or like, guys dorm, girls dorm. So I ended up on one of the girls dorm levels again, throwing up in the toilet. So I was known for the rest of that year like, weren't you the guy? Weren't you the dad in the bathroom that whole floor? My friends lived on the floor, too, and I was scratching one of their places. But that was known as the guy, the dad from the bathroom for the rest of that year.
Yes, that was me.
I was that man on the floor throwing up in the dorm bathroom.
[01:15:32] Speaker A: Oh, that's too good.
That's too good. I really like that. Well, shit, I think we're all out of time for this week. I think that's our spooky episode.
[01:15:42] Speaker B: Yeah, we might get spooky again.
[01:15:44] Speaker A: We might get spooky again. We might get spooky.
