I'm not having any more.
Why not?
I just don't want that caffeine in me too long. Trying to go to bed.
Do you feel caffenated?
No, just sometimes if I have caffeine a little late in the day, I can feel it in my brain trying to go to bed.
That's probably why I have such a tough time at night.
You think, Oh, go in the bed.
I thought caffeine didn't work, but I really think it works.
I know how it feels in my brain trying to sleep. Oh, really? My brain is just like a monkey with symbols, and it's like...
I feel like it's like that every night, though, without caffeine. Caffeine, just like a monkey with symbols. But I usually try... I'll do a little THC gummy.Yes, that helps.That helps.
But sometimes I don't like taking it because it makes me feel foggy the next day. I'm like, I know.
A little bit.
I need something that puts me out and it doesn't give me the fog the next day.
You know what my mom would suggest?
Honey in the ear. Prey. Prey.
I can't sleep. Prey. Prey. I mean, it works.
I usually just try to count down from 100, and then that It gets me... Counting sheep. Yeah, but just counting down from 100, rarely do I ever make it down to 10. Really? Like right around the '60s, '70s.I couldn't get past 90. I started getting really bored, and I'm like...
Why? Because you'd fall asleep or you just couldn't...
No, because my brain would just think of other things. I'd be like, 99. What's that one song that's like 99? Every number would remind me of something. 98. So and so is born in 98.
98 Degrees. They were such a good band. When's the last time I talked?
nick Lashay.
I would think about 100 ideas. All right, 99.intro.intro..
It's Coming to all, baby.
Let's go.
I'm feeling good. Oh, yeah.
Well, come back to Zane and KeithUnfiltered. I'm your host, Zane.
I'm Keith. I'm Matt. I'm Mariah.
First of all, happy Season 6. Oh, my. This is the first episode of Season 6, baby.
We've been planning this episode all week. All year. All year.
Thanks for sticking with us, guys. I honestly can't believe we're already at Season 6.
It's insane. 250-something episodes?
Yeah, this is 250 first.
It's crazy.
Episode. It's crazy how time flies.
It truly does, man. Yeah. Thank you to every single person who's been listening, especially the day one people. You are OG to stick with something for 250 episodes.
Comment down below if you've seen every single episode. I'm so curious.
That's more episodes than Lost. Is that more episodes than Seinfeld, Friends?
No. I think Seinfeld has-No.
More than Seinfeld.
180. We probably don't have as many as days of our lives or general hospital.
Let's not compare ourselves to Iconic Iconic shows.
We are iconic in our own ways.
Let's compare this to, I don't know, like another show.
Ricky Smiley in the Morning. Yeah.
Ricky Smiley in the Morning or that other-He does it every morning.
How many years, though?
For many decades, probably.
So he's got us beat?
I think so. Or Joe Rogan.
I'm sure he only has 150 episodes.
He's in the thousands, my man. Thousands.
Three episodes a week is absolutely diabolic. I just don't understand.
I'd love to do it.
2195 episodes.
But hey, we'll get there. We'll get there. Yes, we will.
We're going to get there so soon.
How was your weekend?
Pretty good. What did we do? We went to the vintage flea market. They do it once a month by my house.
Did you get anything good?
I got a Dupar's ashtray from the '70s.
It was in the vintage store? Yeah. Wow.
What they do is everybody has their own booth. They come once a month, set up a booth table thing, and just have random things to offer. It was just sitting on one of the tables that the guy was selling stuff at.
There was a pile of ashtrays. We saw it, and it was a little pricey, but no hesitation. We were like, You have to have this. It's like, symbolism for you.
Smoking cigarettes in Dupars.
Cigarettes in Dupars from the '70s is crazy.
If you guys don't know what Dupars is, Dupars used to be the diner that we would all go to all the time. Keith and I shot a lot of drunk Oh, yeah. Right down. Blogs in there.
Now it's a Sephora.
Now it's a Sephora. I will never get over that.
Devastating. But there's still one right down there in the Grove.
Yeah, but that's not it.
Grove is still open. They closed Pasadena, though, too. Oh, boy.
They closed a Pasadena Why? It's great food.
I don't get it. I really don't know. It's not like it was an absurdly priced diner that I understand.
It was open 24/7. You know what I mean? It's a shame. Were they open too long every day?
I feel like that Trader Joe's in that whole parking lot made it really complicated for that one area, or the one on Ventura.
It just ain't for business.
Yeah, because the parking lot, there's all those different… There's that Crave right there. I bet that was some hot piece of real estate. I bet the Dupar family was like, sell it.
I know if a parking lot was full because it was packed from a grocery store and other big spots, if I knew it would be hard to find parking, I'd be like, I don't need it. I wouldn't go to that shopping center just to have a breakfast.
I miss me a fucking parking lot. I get excited about parking lots. But I could have had them. They don't have them. Rarely. There are some here and there, but it's always a fucking issue.
A shopping center. I love strip malls so much.
Yeah. Can park anywhere.
Oh, just a big old parking lot.
Oh, man, Give me a Tilly's next to a Five Below next to a- A Pet Smart and an Old together. A Party City.
A TJ. You got a TJ Max, maybe a Michael's, a bit of a best buy just to go walk around and look at Tilly's.
Why are they all the same?
You know what I hate more than no parking? Parking garages. I hate parking. Whenever I drive by and I'm like, Oh, that's where I got to go. Parking garage? Nope, I'm good.
And they give me a damn math problem figuring out. It's like first hour is free, but every 30 minutes, it's like 50 bucks. You're like, What? I'm I'm stressed out. And I got to get it validated. And then you check it out and it goes, Well, where?
Or you forget to do the validation. You get in your car, you're like, I'm not getting back out to go back to the restaurant to walk in and be like, Can you stamp this?
And it's stressful when that machine ain't working and there's a whole line of cars behind you and you're clicking help and you're like, Is there anyone nearby?
It works 50% of the time. Why is it always broken? That's why we had to run true at that one time. Remember at the airport? Busting. We committed a crime. That was crazy. That was honestly one of the funniest-I tell that story a lot.
I tell that story a lot. That was probably the baddest thing I've ever done.
I need to tell that story more often because I do forget it. It's really good. It's such a funny fucking moment.
What also baffles me was when you finally have a regular parking lot and they freaking throw the arm down and you're on the same grounds. You're not changing levels. I'm not at a mall. You're just trying to get to the grocery store and you got to pay for parking.
Wait, wait. Oh, you're talking about it's like same level parking at a store.
I'm not just talking about a parking-Oh, just in general. Air One.
Why am I pulling a ticket? You're still on the street.
Does that make sense? That whole Air One parking lot makes no fucking sense to me. Just let people park.
I swear people just put a pop-up pay thing here. Even by our old house, we have just little restaurants, grocery stores, craft stores, and it's just a regular parking lot. But there's this little booth, and this guy comes out once in a while, 10 bucks.
It's sometimes, too. It's like, Are you supposed to be here charging people?
I need to see some qualification. Let me see the credentials.
Next time, I'm going to do that just to fuck it. Let me see all your fucking credentials. How do we know that you're not fucking just stealing people's... Let me just throw on a fucking college shirt and just...
Paying for parking is an insane concept.
It's everywhere here.
You're already in your car on the ground, on the earth. I don't understand what I'm paying to stop for a little bit. I don't get it.
In Florida, I love going to a mall. You knew you were going to be parked inside and out, grab something and out in five minutes. It was so easy. So easy. Yes.
Going home is such a culture shop because you don't have to pay for anything.
Street parking is free. Everything's free.
It's like that in Texas, too, right? It's just-Oh, yeah.
You can park anywhere. I do hate a parking garage that's almost like a fucking optical illusion where it's up and down. Where you can't find the level. And you're like, I know I parked on this. The grove. But you go on it and you're like, I could see my car, but I can't even get to it. You're like, Let me get through this fucking wire.
And you can hear it the whole time.
Yeah, it's a funny It's mine.
Those need to be studied. Make a Netflix documentary on those damn parking lots. It's a fun house. It's too much because you're watching it the whole time, the whole time, and then there's a wall that you pass and it's gone, vanished.
The person who designed that in architectural school, Isabella, look at this. This is going to fuck them off. You can go up, you can go down. It's like a fucking M. C. Escher painting. It's just like, what the fuck?
First 30 minutes is free, but then you're looking for your damn car for 20 minutes.
You're like, No, no, no.
Yeah. They go, It's going to take them a while to look. The more they're looking, the more money we're making. It's crazy. Am I right, guys?
What the hell is that about?
Those parking garages make so much money.
Oh, yeah. Getting a parking. You don't got to worry about AC. Nothing. Hardly any electricity. It is crazy. You just make bank for people to park.
Just don't be in there when our Earthquake happens. That's all you got to do. Oh, man. By the way, I want to go back to the Air One parking. The shit in Air One is so goddamn expensive. It should be a part of the price you're paying when you buy something from Air One, that it's paying for your parking.
But they're like, They can afford it. What is it to them?
We know our demographic.
They can already pay.
Put the barricade down. You buy a $40 Erwan M&M's. You go to your car and you pay $15 to leave.
What the fuck? Air One is the craziest thing to me, and it's so strange how successful it is. First of all, you started a grocery chain in the middle of already all the existing grocery chains. You did it at a price point above what groceries normally cost. Grosseries are already so expensive, and their thought process was, Let's make it even more.
Yeah, because people will do it.
It's insane to me.
We're going to put it in places where people that have money live, and we want to separate them. That's how they do it. That's when they make these stores or make these high-end places, they're trying to separate people, but it works, which is crazy.
And throwing the celebrity smoothies in, they know what they're doing.
What a crazy concept.
Why does it work? It's so stupid.
People are hungry for identity and status.
They want to be seen in that.
I feel nothing walking in that. You know what I feel? I feel like I have to turn sideways to go to the fucking aisle.
Wait, wait, wait.
This weekend, after thrifting, Keith and I were like, should we go into Erwan? We were feeling so confident.
There was one right next to the... We were at the consignment shop. We were just at a thrift store.
Zane, We walked in, we were smiling. We're both looking. We start looking at each other, and we both have a panic attack.
We're like, All right, that's a wrap.
It was so...
We didn't get one thing.
Because you don't recognize any of the products. You're picking up something like, I think this looks good, but what is this? There's something like-Let me see the Tostitos.
God damn me, a lot of M&Ms.
It looks like you're on a set because all the labels are facing you and you're like, Okay, okay, all right.
Don't get me started on when you're in the jar section, I fucking- I don't think we got that for her.
I can't even... I'm putting on my glasses.
The music was bumping, too. It was a- It was like a club. It was hopping in that spot.
The line for the hop bar, and every... It's like they're paying these people to show up and stand there and look good. Everyone's in active wear, matching sweatsets.
They look good.
Leggings, sports bra, halo. Everybody is in active wear. It's like, I felt- Out of shape.
Yeah, I felt Out of shape.
There's a ton of people working in there, too. I feel like it's just so popping.
If it's your first time and you have questions what they've- Don't ask a question. They all stop and look at you like, Oh, it's this person's first time. Oh, they don't get it. Wait, wait, wait. When they ask one question? Just don't ask questions. It's uncool. Okay, does this look good? But does this have this in? The cookers are like this for it. It's because they're like formal chefs. They've whipped this up and you're like, Is this have goat cheese in it?
They're like, It's like the demographic woke and just knew how to operate Air One. They're walking in so confident.
But the food in there is good, though. The food is very good.
They did a good job. It is.
But, man, you are paying a pretty penny for that food.
A little side of chicken tenders, 75. Okay.
Milk, $0.99..
A gallon of milk.
I heard those smoothies are not good for you. Really? Yeah, like those.
They're putting freaking Bumblebees in it.
Grounded up Bumblebees.
It's good for you. Get some pollen in.
It's crazy what's in there.
You put your spoon in, it's a whole fucking... A Conniecomb just coming off the bottom of the cup. It's like Bumblebee cereal.
Concrete and dirt.
It's good for you. It's good for you, though.
Yeah, right? Do they run the smoothies by the celebs who have them? Do the celebs know they have them? I think they're on a Zoom call. They're just like, We're thinking we're going to add this and this. What do we think? And they're like, Yeah, sure. Or do they have just a bunch of stuff they're whipping I want to see a paparazzi shot of Haley grabbing a smoothie.
She does a campaign, right? She goes back into the car, she's just like...
Yeah, it just... Chunks it.
God, that's good. That's what I want to see. That type of shit. Emma Chamberlain. I can't believe she has-No, I saw she has like a... Is it ice cream?Macha ice cream shake.
Yeah, it looks really good.
We should get something in there.
I could see a Zane and Heath in one's blue, one's red. Yeah.
And they're swirled.
Yeah. It's icy. Blue Razz. I It's like a 7-Eleven slurping.
It changes your tongue.
But the whole deal with Erwan is that we actually have to put the upfront cost. Yeah.
Zane, your drink is just milk.
It's a glass of That's it. It's a shot. Just like a...
All right, boys, sales have come in.
Zane and Heath are good names, though.
Yeah, let me get the Zane.
Let me get the Zane and Heath.
Let's talk to them.
Do they? Has there been any guys yet? I feel like it's been mostly females. Like, is there a Bryce Hall?
A Bryce Hall protein pump.
A Brain Freeze pump. A Logan Paul.
It's like really orange.
It's like, where are they orange?
I'm just waiting to see Prime and Erwan. Prime soft serve. It's not a bad idea. Sounds good.
Soft serve is when... Okay, soft serve is-Yeah, it's from the machine. You swirls. Are you good? If you go up to a soft serve, are you nailing it? Are you like-Yes.
Oh, I'm nailing it. I'm good. I'm a fatty. Yeah, no, I know what I'm doing.
You know how to do that really well.
You only get people in line going They think you work there.
I'm really good with that stuff. Anything dessert, I can make a cake, I can make it look pretty.
I just got to go enough in and then I go… Then I just munch on the rest.
I want to see a gourmet, a blizzard. What's that place called? Derry Queen. Derry Queen. Bring that shit back, but make it better. You know what I mean?
Yeah. I want to see that. Van Lewins is a really good ice cream shop.
Yeah. Derry I just had Van Lewins in New York.
It's so good. Great quality ice cream.
But I want the fun aspect of being like, I'll do Kit Kat Bits and Chocolate Sprinkles. Bring that back.
Colt Stone.
The Chipotle line.
I think Colt Stone is what I would be the most gourmet style to still have that.
Salt and straw last night had goat cheese.
Their flavors are too much.
Goat cheese, habanero, something else in it. They do olive. I was like, okay, I'm like, who is I'm getting this?
Van Leem once did a fries and shake. Tasted a mess.
Yeah, I'll do the miso black cod, soft serve.
The hint of cuttlefish.
It is crazy that people-I'll do the uni. People are buying that. People are like, I'll have the olives and cheese ice cream. What's in there? Like, taste was that's like, oh, what am I feeling? Just having a day. I don't know. You know what that is? It's like you take an Ambian and that's some shit that you eat after popping an Ambian.
The salt sandwich, all of that.
It's just crazy that I would never choose an obscure flavor like that over a chocolate.
You just finished having dinner. Now I want to have something that tastes just like the dinner I ate.
I could see Mariah eating that shit, though, like an olive.
That's why I'm silent.
A charcuterie, like milk trick.
Oh, forget it. I've chosen olive oil. I've chosen rosemary, basil.
For what?
Ice cream flavors. I love that.
She love that. She gets behind the basil. That's crazy. I don't know. I think-Olive oil, ice cream.
It's really refreshing.
I would eat it for free if someone was like... It's like a sample. Yeah. But I don't like doing sample. I get sample anxiety because there's a line, and I think there's a line you cross- Two samples most. Two samples most, and you got to make a decision. Can I have the green one? What's the green one?
Piss off. Matt, that's what I like about you. I like that you are so quick when you know there's a line. You're very good at that. Very, very good. Even with me, when we're at a restaurant and I take a second longer than I should, Matt just immediately gives me the eye.
The dish is made. Somebody worked their ass off to figure out the dish. If there's an allergy, remove it. But like, what's it?
Yeah, Zane has a lot of questions. But what's it like? How many ounces is the salad? They're like, I don't know.
No, no. Okay. When I was in the transformation, I always wanted 6-8 ounces. I don't think-Yeah, but then don't go to a restaurant.
Bring your food scale then. It's just dead.
I did.
I saw this She was maybe 16 at the bagel shop, and she was with her friends. I felt so bad because it was clearly her first time probably ordering. I don't know. Yeah, it seemed like ever. It seemed like her mom gave her money. She went up to the counter. She was all nervous. She was rehearsing what she wanted. She went up and she goes, Could I do the locks bagel sandwich? Is it possible to do no locks and instead of the cream cheese, avocado? The guy was like...
Oh, so you slept an avocado bagel.
I felt bad because our friends were heckling her, but not to her face.
They were whispering it, and I was like, It's okay.
It's okay. That is something you would... Let me do the locks bagel, no locks, sub the cream cheese.
Or the Holland egg.
A Hollandais? Yeah, Hollandais sauce.
The Hollandais sauce. They're like, Why are you getting that then?
So you want an English- You want an egg, so you want to poach an egg then.
But I don't make it too difficult. I usually just ask to remove things.
That's a crazy order, though.
How do you poach an egg?
Water? I think it's the hardest way to make an egg, right?
You crack the egg into the water.
But do you have a little catcher to make sure it has a bit of shape? Or is it just going to- You stir.
So you start That's what I do. I start stirring the water like a whirlpool. So then when you crack it, it starts going with the motions, and then it balls up.
It stays together pretty well.
I'm having anxiety. Can I save myself real quick? What? I do tip well. You do? Wait, you do. That's I needed to save myself.
Something for the restaurant industry you needed to save.
Yeah, any waiters listening, any waitresses, any hostesses. Zane, we always talk about tipping.
We're good.

It's spooky season.
Oh, spooky season. That's true. What is it? October.
It's basically about October is happening, man. Are you going to any haunted houses?
No. I've been less and less inclined to do holidays off every year. Yeah. I don't know why, because it doesn't feel like spooky season.
You should get some pumpkin out. Maybe. Maybe that's why. Watch some scary movies. But I wish I could go do haunted houses, but out here, just Hollywood.
The Halloween Horror Nights.
It's such a hassle to do that. It's a huge commitment. But I just want there was a- You got to pay for parking. Yeah, no. We're just going back. It's too much of an operation.
But you know what? I do miss driving around the neighborhoods and seeing everybody out, trick or treating. I just don't see that.
That's why we love the Taluka Lake because it really got us in the spirit.
Yeah, they go all out.
It's like being at Universal. You can't even drive on the streets. They might as well block them off because there's so many people. Everybody's coming from different areas just to trick or treat there.
We should go back this year for Halloween.
It was just so fun to get in the spirit.
Yeah. Because I feel like even just in this area, you will never see anybody walking around, trick or treating, even on a hallway night.
Yeah, it's so sad.
I think it's just dangerous. I could see-That's why they do trunk or treat.
At churches, everyone, part of the community.
You know what that is?
No, I've actually never heard it.
Instead of doing your house, you decorate your car as a Halloween theme, and you have all your candy in the trunk, and you all pull into a parking lot, and the kids just go from car to car.
Oh, easy peasy. The parents are like, God, we can go. I know.
But there's a certain age, though.
If I was seven or eight, I'd be like, Ah, this is not...
I want to go house to house.
That's cute, though. I like that. Yeah, that's fun.
Do malls still give out candy? I remember when I worked at the mall, our store, we'd have trick or treaters that would come through.
Oh, yes. I remember that.
I remember having a bucket and we'd give out candy at the front of Brooklyn.
A bit of AC.
Because that's during the day because normally during the day, you wouldn't be trick or treating the neighborhood.
Yeah, you would have the cute little tiny little babies in like, sunflowers outfits.
You see, I like that. That's safe. Yeah. That's safe. I couldn't trust just candies being put in my kids' bags.
I know. A lot of times parents will be like, you take the candy and you give them their candy.
It's like, let them have fun. That's pretty much what they do, right?
We should do that this year. We should put thumb tags and like Snickers.
Just to put air tags in each one and see where it goes. Good. I hear a lot about these needles and thumb tags and candy and stuff.
Never seen it.
No, I know.
I think there's been a few situations, but it went viral. Let's do it.
That way we can have a new one. You know what I mean?
That is such a crazy thing that an adult is like, I'm going to ruin a kid's night. That's insane that somebody had that thought. Yeah, it's really... That's so bizarre. Even if I had it once and that one story It just catches on. It happened. That's just nuts.
What is your favorite Halloween candy, though? It's fun on Halloween because you get a little-Are you going to let me answer it? I was just had a little- A Kit Kat. A Kit Kat.
Specific to Halloween, my favorite Halloween candy to get is Milky Way Midnights. But I would never buy a Milky Way Midnight. I would never choose them. But on Halloween, specifically, I picked those out first, and I'm like, This is the one.
That's the beauty of Halloween is to You get exposed to candies you don't normally get to try, but you suddenly you're like, you know what? This hits for me? An almond joy. You'll never see me buying a fucking almond joy. Only on Halloween, though. Only on Halloween? Give me that coconut. You know what?
That's a great way to... If you're starting a candy business, I think the best time to release it is Halloween. Halloween night, you give it to everybody coming to your house, and you don't even tell them it's your brand. Just go, Hey, here you go.
But then that's where the parents are like, I don't know about this. I don't recognize this.
What is a Moo-Moo bar? Like, You know what? Another favorite is a $100,000 bar. Only on Halloween, though.
Is it 100 grand?
Yeah, 100 grand.
You're like nasty stuff.
You're like, Oh, man.
Dude, it's literally like a rice. It's got rice crispy. Oh, my God. That's stuck in your teeth for months.
So good. Those slap. I like a sixlet. I love a sixlet because you bite that top one, and then we got more to go.
We come over there on right now.
I love those.
Also, I wish nerds got me clusters. Can we get those in a tiny little pack? It's too much.
It's way too much in the pack. I know Mariah thinks it's a perfect amount. She'll eat the whole bag.
Have you had the spooky nerds gummy clusters?
Yeah, the orange bag. Love it.
They're a bit more grape. A little grapey. It's that good... You know the purple nerds?
Is the nerd rope the same thing as the clusters? It's just rope form? Okay.
I hate the nerds rope.
Because I've never had the nerds rope. I don't know what that looks like.
Give me some nerds clusters at the airport. I am set. But once you pop them, you can't stop.
Is this probably the newest candy that's been out?
Nerds clusters?
I think it's one that's here to stay. Yeah. I like so, too. It's definitely one that's at every airport. If it's on the airport wall, it's yours.
You know what it reminds me of, which I find fascinating? It brings me back to, it It reminds me the Willy Wanka candies in the movie. Remember when it was coming out? The Gob Stoppers. The Gob Stoppers.
The Everlasting Gob Stoppers.
Yes. Every time I pull it, it just reminds me Willy Wanka. I think that's really cool.
Good-looking candy.
Yes. It's a beautiful candy. It's such a fun- But the one Willy Wanka candy, they never fucking did, that was in the video, is the one where it's eight meals in one, like an eight-course meal.
No, the Gob Stopper, that is in the movie. But the one that Violet eats, where they're like, Violet, she's Roast beef and mashed potato.
It's impossible. You can get those beans.
Why didn't they also make the fizzy lifting drink where I can fly?
They should make the- You stole fizzy lifting drinks.
You bumped into the ceiling, but now has to be washed and sterilized, so you get nothing.
You set it in the same cadence. You get condenser. Very good. That was awesome.
You stole fizzy lifting drink.
They should make a horror movie of that movie.
Just like the Tim Burton one. It was scary. The Tim Burton I don't know.
Just like they did with Winnie the Pooh, did you see the new horror movie Winnie the Pooh? No, there's not.
Yes, there is. Why? I think it's even the second one, too. The second one? Yeah.
My God.
Are they allowed to do that? Is it made by the-I think Winnie Pooh is so old where it's creative.
I think it's creative licensing.
That's the name of the...blood and Honey.Blood.
And Honey.
Imagine a place where you get stem cells and you get holistic stuff.
Okay.blood and Honey.Blood and Honey. I don't know. That sounds like a really high-end place I'd spend my money at.
Blood and Honey. I mean, that's like a flavor of things, right?
A flavor of things?
Like, I've had a beer that's called like, Blood and Honey before. Damn it. It's like blood orange, but with like, honey stuff. It's flavorful.
You got to help me out with my costume. I know you come up with good ones. I have nothing. Thank you.
I got a list up for everybody.
Oh, really? Thank you. Please. I'll literally pay you for something in that list because I have nothing.
Your Ape Lincoln was a hit.
Yeah. Yeah, it was.
That was good. It really was a hit. As you looked like Ape Lincoln. Everybody was raving when I was at that party. It was good.
It was cool. They were all like, Do a trick. I'm not a magician.
That was definitely the most respected costume I've ever worn. The respect I was receiving was really crazy.
I mean, you freed the slaves.
I would hope so. You know what? Okay.
I take that. Before we continue, we want to give a big thank you to our next sponsor of this podcast, Zbiotics.
All right, guys, I'm going to be completely honest. After a night with drinks, I usually don't bounce back the next day like I used to. I'm getting older. My body just can't handle it like it used to anymore. I have to make a choice. I can either have a great night, which that's what I want, baby, or a great next day, which I also want. That is until I found Zbiotics, baby.
That's right. Zbiotics, pre-alcohol probiotic drink is the world's first genetically engineered probiotic.
It was actually invented by PhD scientists to tackle through mornings after drinking. Guys, I actually just used one of these for our wild weekend in Vegas. I'm telling you, this stuff actually works. Remi and Alicia actually introduced me to Zbiotics. My God, it really does make the next day a whole lot better.
If you're wondering how it works, when you drink, alcohol gets converted into a toxic byproduct in the gut. It's this byproduct, not dehydration, that's to blame for your rough next day.
Exactly. Pre-alcohol produces an enzyme to break this byproduct down. Just remember to make Zbiotics your first drink of the night. Drink responsibly, and you'll feel your best tomorrow.
We actually are bringing a case of these to Nashville. We're going for my bachelor party, and obviously, all of my boys are going to be wanting to have a good time.
Who are one of those boys?
Zane. It's me, baby. Everybody is going to 100% going to be taking the pre-alcohol before the festivities.
Because, baby, this is going to be a memorable weekend, and we're just trying to have a good night without having to stress about how terrible we're to feel the next day.
I love how they come in like a cute little shot bottle.
Yes, look at that. What's awesome about this is that you don't have to refrigerate it, so you can keep it really anywhere.
I'm just really excited that we have this to bring to Nashville. I want my boys running at their top performance.
Exactly. Look, I kept hearing about prealcohol and wondered what it was actually like. Now that I've tried it, I get why everyone is talking about it. With their GMO technology, Zbiotics is continuing to invent probiotics that will help with everyday challenges of modern living.

Speaking of something spooky or spooky related, do you remember the Peeping Tom that we had? Yeah.
Yes. Oh, there's an update.
Well, Patricia and I were at the airport. We're at the baggage claim, and this girl comes up to us and is like, Matt Patricia? I go, Yeah. She goes, You all the Peeping Tom, right in West Hollywood? We were like, Yes. She goes, I was the other girl in the news segment.
Oh, my God. No way.
Wait, how did she know you if it was just the ring cam?
Because she was a girl who was in the actual news coverage. She goes, I saw the ring cam, and I saw the TikTok, and the story of us talking about the podcast. She knew about us, and we ran into her, and we just swaped stories and all of that.
It's so funny how many people posted that clip as a normal TikTok, laughing at it, and it went viral, but it was Patricia, your guys' voice. It wasn't crazy thing to interview through a raindor.
It was funny. I was like, That footage is going to be out there, but I didn't think people would find it that funny.
No, that was the first time I've ever seen anything like that, like an interview through a ring camera.
But yeah, we ran into the other girl who had the whole story. That's so interesting. It was pretty crazy. Yeah, we were on the same flight. It was bizarre.
Really bizarre. But her face was her face in it?
I think hers was in it. Well, I think actually, no. I think it was her neck, and they covered up her face. I could tell what she looked like.
Yeah, I think that's right. Just a whole meet and greet at the airport. I was like, Who is that? I was like, Those are the people from the ring.
They have a peeping Tom. If you heard that, you'd be like, What What are these people talking about?
I have a fun little topic.
Get it, Papa?
I was talking about this in the car. I don't know how fun this conversation could be because we can't really say our own examples, but I was just thinking about how fun it is to know people's passwords for things and the story behind it.
Yes.
Interesting. Okay.
I wish I could say my password because it's so- Everybody has their own funny, weird story of their password and why it's their password.
I was just with Patricia the other day, and we came across something, and I go, Actually, that is the password I use on a lot of stuff. And she was like, Oh. Oh, okay. But I wish I could say this story of what it was that I saw.
I have a friend who her parents, they bonded over popcorn 30 years ago when they met, and their password has always been popcorn. Brilliant.
Actually, I have one that is just like that, that is so obscure. It was something that I saw one time. It's like a random thing. I go, That's going to be…
I can honestly say mine, but it's impossible for you to find it. What do you mean?
Zane, I wouldn't even risk it because people can fish an account and use it all. Really?
Oh my God. I just feel like it's really hard to find because school ID is from preschool. Can you even find that shit? Because I don't think they still have that in the system.
I still remember my locker combination.
It was my 15 code preschool number.
That's so funny.
Oh my God.
Yeah, and I've used it all my life, but it's so hard to remember.
See, that's so cool. I love the back stories, especially if they're funny.
The number you would type in for your lunch.
It was something like that, but it was long time. I'm surprised they even gave us little kids that big of a fucking number.
I've used friends' phone numbers that I know don't work, like landline numbers as passwords sometimes. Oh, wait, that's really smart. Yeah, because I'm like, it's a non-existent number. It's never connected to me. It's somebody else's number, but I'm using it for just this one thing.
Mine was... I was resetting something. I don't remember why, but I needed to reset my email password or whatever. I was standing there and I was just trying to think of something, and I just looked around, and the first thing I saw is just what I made the password.
Oh, yeah.
It just stuck. It's been like that for seven years.
Interesting. I talk to my cousins about their passwords, and almost everybody's is family-related.
It's just so funny. I got to do that with my cousins and stuff because I bet it's a safe space with all of that.
It's just hard to- Most people's are just inside jokes from 20 years ago, and you just have different forms of it because now you have to add a symbol and lowercase.
There's a good amount of time for maybe a couple of years where My password was a date. It was 106, 07, and it was the date that I made the password. Oh, really? I put that as... It was my password for a long time. Another password that I had, which I got hacked, that was when everything was hacked, and it was as I should. It was my dad's name. That's it.
It's easy. If people do a little bit of search and they can figure it out.
Is there some system? Because I know they're not typing. They're typing different forms of... Don't they put all your information on something and it just generates?
They can go through a Facebook and stuff and they can look through all your statuses and just keep trying things over and over and over and over until it hits.
Isn't it like a system, though? They're not typing it. It's like an automated thing, right? It's fully automated. That's so interesting. Wow. Yeah.
That's why- Have you ever guessed somebody's password? You've been in a bind and you- No.
Just my mom's, but- Patricia and I, we were at a hotel and we got the What was it?
Oh, actually, we didn't really guess it, but we got the hotel key. We went all the way up, and it's Vegas. You got to go all the way up to the floor. We did it, and it didn't work. I go, I was pissed because I was like, Gosh, now we got to go all the way back down in the lobby. I just went, wait a second. I just went to the door right next, and I went, boop, and it worked. So they gave you the wrong room. Gave us the wrong room. But thank goodness, in that one moment, I go, Let's just give this a shot.
I would have never thought it was the wrong...
That's crazy. I was so in How did you know that? I was like, I don't know. I just wanted to test my options out.
Intuition. Very good, man.
Yes, I felt like I had-Put your ass in a CIA movie. Then we were worried because we were like, We should probably go down. Someone's going to get assigned the wrong room or they're going to charge us that we never checked out. I don't know.
That's something I always roll my eyes at. One scene every time whenever I watch a movie and they're trying to figure out the password, and they get it right the first time, I roll immediately. It doesn't matter how big the watch of the movie is. It's just like, Come on. Let's be a little bit like, I want you to hook it in. Go on your computer.
Try to fucking-Let it sit overnight and run different combinations.
Yeah, I don't know.
It's like, What was dad's favorite thing? It was his car. It was his motorcycle.
It was me. It was...
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Access granted. It's a villain's password.
He's trying to blow up planet Earth, and it's like, you figured out the password. Yeah.
Come on. The only thing that scares me is a a lot of accounts you'll make, like your password or whatever, and then it makes you do the three-question security question thing. It's all stuff you can Google about, and it's like, mother's maiden name.
I'm like-What was your elementary school?
Anybody can find this information.
Those questions are really-That's the worst with boomers now.
They act like little tumbler teenagers where they're just like, Where was your first job? Oh, it was at Derry Queen. They're answering, What color? What is your favorite color? They're like, Aqua blue. They go, What's your favorite ice cream flavor? They're answering all the fucking security questions.
I used to do that shit on my space.
You give it all away.
It's like that episode of The Office where they're trying to figure out, I think it was Michael's password. They're all trying to figure it out, but they're like, What year did he make the password? Okay, Lord of the Rings was big. Try this. They were really thinking. They were like, Try big boobs, and he was typing it in. She goes, Are you really typing that? He goes, We got to try everything. And they were like, Try big boobs with a Z, and it got them in.
So It's very pimp z_69@myspace.
Com.
I wonder what your password was for that.
I think it was pizzafacesomething. Pizzaface. Pizzaface something, yeah. That's what I was called. So I was like, I'm going to take what people use to make me feel bad.
I had a magician one time guess one of my passwords straight into my face. No way. Sometimes I'm convinced that Mike told him about it because it was one of Mike's and he just really wanted to wow me. But still to this day, Mike is like, I didn't know. And I'm like, How? How? How?
How? How I told him, Patricia and I, we were just with a magician in New York.
We got invited to go to the Flyfish Club, which is Gary Vanderschuck's new social lounge. They had a magician. We got to meet the chef.
Me thinking he went flyfishing. I'm like, Oh, that's so cool.
We got to meet the chef. We're with Gary. There was a magician. He's doing tricks on us. Gets Patricia to... He guesses her oldest childhood dog. Writes it down on a piece of paper. Already has it down on a piece of paper, and he's like, Oh, was it a lab? No, it wasn't a lab. It was actually like... It was a lab. It was like a black lab. I'm getting an R. He goes, What's Matt's middle name? It's R. Okay, so we're getting an R, blah, blah, blah. She's like, Yes, yes. She goes, Okay, now I want you to say Matt, you pick this up, and I had it, and she was like, Rascal. It was a fucking rascal.
What the fuck? Did she write it down?
She never wrote it down.
Oh, she was just thinking it.
She was just thinking it. He was able to be a mentalist and get it out of her in road. That's so insane.
It's like your guy.Un.
Believable.that's really cool.
The guy that you're saying, was that your Thanksgiving?
He wasn't really a mentalist. He was more of just like, medium. Oh, a medium. Getting people talking to him. Mentalists are insane.
Then he had one where he was like, I want you to scroll through everyone in your phone, pick a random name. Okay, now do you know this person? It was a person from college? I have to talk to them in 10 years. Okay, what's? And he's like, writing it down on his thing, goes, I'm getting like an A, a this. Okay, now D, D. And like, it's like, Angelika, Angelika Davis. And I'm like, What the fuck?
How did you? That's insane. I couldn't believe it. Then rob a bank. Yeah. You know, if you're so good, what are you doing? Why are you wasting your time here?
Some tricks. I think there are some I don't like poking holes in it, but it was very along the way.
I want to see you, Rob, do something that's going to really wow me.
You know what I mean? I bet they could do it, but they would lose their magic license. Did you see those hackers that just stole $260 million?
No, I don't know. Is it...
It was these group of hackers that got access to $260 million, $250 million or something worth of cryptocurrency. They did the hack where you could go into somebody's screen and watch them put their password in.
You would just get their wallet number.
You have access to everything. They wired all the money. They did this while live streaming, though.
What?
And were celebrating and going crazy, bragging about the whole thing, and ended up getting caught because they were just being stupid.
Why the fuck were they livestreaming it? Did they not think it was going to work?
I don't know.
I guess you see me livestreaming thinking it's not going to work, and then it works.
They didn't be like, I'm so sorry. Give it back. My bad. Whoops.
That's crazy that they I've streamed it. So stupid.
Have you guys seen the AI video? This is just an example, but it's one that's going viral. It's like a baby cow the size of someone's hand, but it's clearly AI. Oh, yeah. And all the comments of the boomers.
No, they believe it. It's unbelievable. This is just God's own creatures.
Where can I get one?
Oh, yeah.
My wife would die. Where can I get one?
Or the opposite, or they're just like, We're doomed.
We are doomed. Or they made this insane Their cloud in cows. Jesus sculpture out of 10 cans. This little boy in the third world country.
Oh my God.
It's really the size of the thumb. There's no way people...
That would be cool.
Before we continue, we want to give a big thank you to our next sponsor of This podcast, Better Help.

I just saw this on my… Did you see the AI page? I think it's on Twitter or a TikTok? I don't know. But if you send the page a picture, any picture, from anywhere. The AI will go through every single camera and it will be able to send you recorded footage of when you took that picture. You see the person walking and then getting the picture done from cameras are all over, like open cameras, and they have a whole page where someone will send their picture, and then they reply back.
Wait, but it's AI generated?
I don't know if the page is AI generated or if the person's using something, and then I'm a human is posting it. You know what I mean?
I would just love to find every photo that's been taken of me, but I've been in the background of somebody's photo. I want to know if I'm hanging in someone's house in the background, on the beach. I love those stories where it was like, this couple that's married, they were at Disney World at the same time as a kid. It's a kid sitting in the background of someone's shots. I would love to see if you can permit access with somebody else and see if we ever crossed paths in our entire photo.
I've never seen It makes my hair go up. It's so crazy seeing a picture.
What are the odds? What are the odds? What are the odds? My friend Arden, Arden Rose Will Darbyshire. Both of their parents were in town. We're hanging out with their parents all in the backyard. Arden's from Arkansas. I always loved Arden's name, and I'm with her mom, and I'm like, You named your daughter a great name. How did you come up with the name Arden? She goes, Oh, that's so funny. You know, Jet, Arden's dad, he was a grad student at SMU, and he had this great academic advisor who we just love. She was this lovely woman, and her name was Arden. I'm going to hide the last name just out of privacy.
Say Wilkinson.
Wilkinson. Okay. There was this lovely academic advisor, Arden Wilkinson. We loved her. She was awesome. I was just always inspired just to name Arden from that name. Yeah, that's how we got it. In my head, I'm like, An academic advisor at SMU with the last name Wilkinson. I know a girl who went to Highland Park, which is a high school that's right there in the SMU area with the last name Wilkinson. Once again, guys, Wilkinson, I'm changing the last name. I go, What are the odds that I That girl is related to that woman? I go on Facebook, find my friend with the last name Wilkinson, and I type in Arden Wilkinson. Sure enough, this lady shows up that she's mutual friends with. Oh, my gosh. I'm showing Arden's mom. She's like, Oh, my God, how did you find them? Just Facebook. But I know a girl who I think is connected to this woman. She's like, Oh my gosh, go up and show Jet. I'm showing Jet. The picture, I go, Do you know who? She goes, Go up and show Jet, but don't say who it is. I'm like, Do you know who this is?
Jet's like, Oh my God, is that Arden Wilkinson? I didn't reach out to my friend. I go, Hey, no, we haven't talked in 15, 20 years or whatever. How do you know that person?
I'm sorry to go that far. Me, I'd be like, I know somebody, and then I believe it. No, me and Matt.
You have no idea. Matt's hat says J Press. My cousin's name is Jordan Press. I couldn't wait to bring it up. I was going to ask, what the hell are you doing with that?
This is me after... This is also my brain after six glasses of wine. I'm just like, Yeah, it's just... This is me sober. I mean, but I was just like, Hey, what? I'm just curious. And so then I reach out to this girl, finally, and I go, Hey, I noticed you're related to this other Arden. What's the connection here? She goes, That's my grandmother.
Oh my gosh.
So little did I... And So I tell Arden- You don't know who Arden is named after? A friend I've had out here for now 10 years. I'm so done. That's crazy. Her name is named after a friend I know from back in Dallas's grandmother.
So that's insane. That's insane.
Weird silver string. But I mean, it's just... She just said that last name. Once again, it wasn't what considered something very specific, but I was just like, The only other person who I know has that last name is somebody who lives in that area right near that university. It Just give it a shot.
Eew. So crazy.
That's why it's fun to ask questions and dig because literally, everybody's connected.
You'll find the connection.
It's so fun to find the connection.
Damn. Mariah, anytime she goes to a bagel shop and here's a New York accent. Where are you from? What part?
What part? Where are you from?
All right, so who's J Press?
J Press is a men's clothing store in New York City.
What if your friend, your cousin, is related to J Press?J Press.
I'll introduce you to him at the wedding.
I can't get over that story.Yeah.That.
Is crazy. I'm so glad I went with my gut just to at least look it up.
Just to try it.
I could have missed out on that one detail and just put it to the wayside and just totally forgotten about it. But I was like, what? It's a very specific last name, and I'm so curious if that hits.
My favorite is similar to that, but guessing that somebody's related just by their looks.
Oh, yes.
Oh, yeah.
That was weird because I was a total stranger.
That was unbelievable. Just seeing somebody, you're They look like they would be related to this person.
Oh, yeah.
We did it at a store that we went to. I was talking to one of the cashier guys, and I was looking at a dude in the background, and he looks just like somebody that we know. I don't know how it got brought up, why, what happened, but it turned out to be this dude's brother. That I was like, he looks just like that guy.
But it's like you told me, you were like, doesn't that kid look like him? I looked, I was like, yeah, he does. And then conversation started. You didn't bring it up because why would anybody know who we're talking about?
And this is like hours away.
Yeah. Sure enough.
Perfect match. He also has a crazy story where they... I guess we could say they're actually brothers, but they just found out they were brothers. With the person we know. That whole story came up.
It was from a separate... Mom.
Did you know, though, before they knew? No. So it's It's almost like you knew. You had an inkling feeling before they found out that they were brothers. That's crazy. That's a whole documentary. That's an episode.
The husband went off in the marriage and had an affair and had this other son. Dude, I'm telling you, it was so weird how much they looked alike.
That's wild. Imagine bumping into that person. Imagine they bumped into each other at a bar at a restaurant. You're just like, I'm sorry.
It's like you're looking at yourself.
You look just like...
Okay, parent trash. They're not brothers.
Halley, what twins?
I'm like that with people that have my name.
You're like, Are we brothers?
Like, just saying, are we brothers? No, it's crazy. I checked their ID. I'm like, You have ZA, I'll have like an hour and a half conversation because I think that we're related in some way. That we have their first names. Because their first names.
It's crazy.
Crazy.
I knew a kid or I knew a person who had an adopted sibling, and one of the person's brother went to a private school. The brother at the private school, there was a girl in his class that he always was like, You look just like my sister, his adopted sister, and always would say it. It was crazy. He would come home and was like, Mom, there's this girl at my school. She looks just like our adopted sister. Well, the mom looked into it because she was like, This might be true, looked into it, and turns out that the other girl was the other adopted sister.
Were they twins or just sisters?
No, just sisters. But they were both adopted. That is crazy. Another family in the area had also adopted.
What are the rules with that, again? You're not allowed to tell them until they're 18. If they have brothers and sisters.
I also think the person, the mom I knew, decided didn't want to make the connection between them because it would have complicated. Because the child was so young, too, and I think there comes to it.
It's also traumatic. That's a lie.
I know, yeah.
It's a stage of... I mean, the girl was five and another five-year-old. If you're telling that this five-year-old, that they have this other sibling, can really complicate because all they're trying to get is attachment and understand your house. You just have that natural bond. But it was a very freaky situation.
It doesn't matter what age they find out. It could cause problems, right? Yeah. It doesn't matter what age they find out.
It's heavy information. It's just important. Because you have that natural gravitation towards your own family members.
I just watched that That Documentary, Three Identical Strangers. That one really hit me. I was like, That is absolutely insane. Imagine looking at the newspaper and seeing two people that look just like you. The headline is, They found a brother, found each other, and you're the third one. You're looking at this. Oh, my. I'm getting goosebumps just thinking about me looking at the newspaper.
It's crazy. It's crazy.
What a crazy story. Have you seen that documentary?
No.
I know the whole story.
Oh, my gosh. It's a wonderful documentary.
Oh, my It's also sad. It's really sad. It's a crazy reveal about why they were all separated. I swear you.
Also, I feel like you gravitate and you get these instincts to talk to certain people and get to the bottom of things because there is a connection. This one's not crazy at all. It's just another example. But the other day, my cousin was at the park, and she just gravitated towards this other mom because they had the same beliefs and things, and they were just chit-chatting, and it turns out they're cousins, and they were I was like, Wait, are you? Oh, whoa. Yeah, they got... She sent me the whole story. I forget how they figured it out, but they realized that they were related.
So weird. Just so weird.
The one mom she decides to talk to at the park.
I feel like it pulls you for a reason, though. Something about it just makes you.
Isn't it crazy? We're related to so many people we just never met. Yeah. So crazy.
I know. And your lineage goes so far back, too.
You could be walking amongst them. You could be friends with them. You just have no idea.
We could be related right now in some way. Yeah. And we just don't know.
Do you think, I bet it will be real, like 100 years from now, just great great grandkids are like, Oh, let me pull up my great, great grandpa's old podcast. Just watching these clips like, look at this. I was related this man from 100 years ago. Look at what they're wearing. They're holding these mic things in front of them. They have headphones on. But they have this 70s. It's not the 70s, but it's-I We watched Back to the Future, and it's crazy. Oh, yeah.
What they nailed from the '80s.
It's such a good movie.
When they go to the future?
Just like they had where they jumped- Back to the Future, too.
They go to the future.
They went to the future. They went to the year 2015. In 2015, there was a 1980s-themed bar. He was like, What is that? Why is... Oh, there's still... He's like, Oh, no, it's a bar in the future. But they made it look like it was in the '80s for a nostalgic type thing. Then they're looking at... He's like, I don't know. It's just like, that stuff is so cool to think about.
Did they nail 2015?
No. No, it was like flying cars, flying hoverboards. I've never seen that. I don't know.
But there was a few things that they got that I was like…
2015, flying cars is crazy.
Why when we predict the future, it's all flying?
Everything's floating.
But what's crazy is that we can do flying cars. It's It's not smart to do flying cars. You know what I mean? Why is that the…
Be more creative?
Because I think people were like, Well, we're making planes, and if that goes in the sky, why can't we do that for a legitimate?
But there's so much more ideas to think of a flying car.
It's just so hard to regulate that shit, too.
It's so easy to go to that first.
Or those buildings that just look like Dubai buildings, pretty much. Because when you look at Dubai, that looks like a futuristic city, right? Yes. Right now, it looks like a futuristic city.
Even China, parts of China and Japan look super futuristic.
Oh, yeah, 100%. It's just interesting. We create these buildings because that's what we think the future will look like. But then sometimes it looks like that was our version of what the future was, but in a way, it looks like faux future.
The '80s is so interesting because they were making things that this is what the future is and the designs from the '80s. It's like space age.
Retro futurism.
60s, 70s space age. That's like the Jetsons. It's so cool. It's very futuristic, but when you look at it, you see it as old.
I just think it's our idea of futuristic. Just very alien-esque.
Cars from the '80s, their lights are to look futuristic and the dashes and the tech because it was like, when tech was first coming out, it's so bizarre. Then when you look back at it, you're like, That looks old.
I was watching the first Alien, which is set in It's like, 2,200 or 2,144. It's very far away, but they're in these massive spaceships and they're galaxies away. But their computer, their AI they're talking to, it's the black screen with green data. I'm like, They couldn't put just a color TV in here and just made it look like touch screen. They got buttons everywhere. I'm like, Where's the touch screen?
I mean, the fact they got buttons for the future.
It's crazy. I'm like, Okay. They're smoking cigs in space. You're like, That wouldn't be allowed.
It's so funny, though. Futuristic things, it does look very cheesy when you really think about it. I feel like that's why when people are building new homes, they're going back to 1990s styles just because I feel like the futuristic-looking stuff is people actually don't really want it.
People like romanticizing the past. It makes me feel a little bit more grounded, a little bit more human of a nicer time. Sometimes we don't want everything.
I cried at the flea market.
More color, more color. It'll get It'll get there. I'm optimistic. It's just sad. I think architecturally, what we've been building is just going in.
It's terrible.
It's so sad. We're not going to look at.
Everything is just so...
Just looks like a hotel lobby.
Yeah, this millennial, I call it just a millennial flip. It's just like, we really don't want it.
It's because they can get these things up overnight. It's so basic.
There's no character. It's easy. Then it's like, if you make something plain, it's not like you have an orange-colored building with color and character. Somebody might not want an orange house, but it's like people used to pick homes because they liked that style.
I also think now they're just like, let's just make everything fucking gray, which is terrible. But they know that these people are going to end up painting what they want anyway. So just give them a blank canvas. And let them do what they want. So they put really cheap shit just to make it.
I just want to see. Because a lot of homes I like are the craftsmen homes. Those almost Sears kit houses that were so iconic at the time. But bring those back, those kits, and just those types of frameworks I would love to see. I just don't want everything in open concept.
This room.
I can use some crown molding and maybe some Wayne Scotting, but I'm fine with it.
It's so funny. Getting older, you appreciate those things. When I was younger, I'm like, Crown molding, that's so ugly.
But now I'm like, it's just so-It enriches a home, I think.
It makes it-There's so much to it.
It just feels like it's missing now when you look up. Just popcorn ceilings.
Don't bring back popcorn ceilings with We're like, Let's bring back popcorn ceilings. No. Oh, what? That was just an awful idea. Who ever thought of doing popcorn ceilings?
I'm restoring my big red. It's so funny because when I was younger, I wanted everything My customizations were like, paint the rims black, all the logos, black them out, black out the grill, do this, black out the tail. I remember spray painting my tail lights.
Trying to modernize it.
I was just doing that. Now I'm undoing all of those things that I did when I first got the truck, and I'm like, I'm putting it back to stock. I'm putting the stock wheels on.
You're trying to look like you lived in Gotham City. It's just so interesting going back to just that OEM.
I love it, though. It's so cool.
They're putting a rainforest cafe at the top of the Empire State Building.
Wait, why?
A giant frog on top. The Empire State Building made a joke on April Fool's Day that they were going to do a rainforest cafe on It's really funny. Now, they're actually going to do one, but it's a pop-up for only a week, but they're going to do the Rainforest Cafe.
I'm a big fan of pop-ups. They should do pop-ups like that just with anything they can think of. Just throw it somewhere, pop-up, have people enjoy it, and then get rid of it.
If it's only for a week, I'd be down to go. That's pretty cool.
You flying for it?
That's funny. Yeah. The Empire State Building has been having a lot of sense of humor. Their TikTok account is funny.
Did you see... They're doing a lot of press around that.
I love that the businesses and companies are now... They don't take things too seriously. They're having more fun, and they're realizing what's getting people to come in. It's stuff like this. This is going to bring people together.
I do like that they're not being so up tight and professional about their shit anymore. They're having a little bit more fun with their jokes and what they're posting and not taking shit too seriously on what goes out.
Absolutely. This is just a fun little thing that they're doing. I'm excited that they're having a little bit of personality with it.
Yeah, that's good. Okay. I was just so curious.
I didn't know if it was Do you remember diaramas?
Diorama?
Because a kid, he made a little scene out of a shoe box.
Yeah, we did an ecosystem.
We did that for episode unfiltered.
Oh, yeah.
When we did the guessing of I remember. Oh, a box of lies.
A box of lies.
He said it was like, I had Billy Eilish and a bunch of- And very Brett. You saw that? Very Brett. Very Brett. Ahead of its time, truly.
Do you think Charlie saw that? I was like...
Oh, my God. Absolutely, Brett. Love Zane and Keith unfiltered.
My favorite podcast. Brat, it was inspired by the Box of Lies episode that they did.
I just miss a diorama. I would just like to do it.

You should do a real professional shoot.
Yeah. Look, I didn't fucking trim my beard.
We look so skinny.
Yes, they have so many different flavors on there. My personal favorite is the cookies and cream because I love chocolate so much. I put it in my yogurt. I'll have it with my strawberries every night. I eat cake batter. It's truly incredible, and it's super healthy, guilt-free. This makes you not want to have to eat and cookies and all that good shit at night. This is such a good thing to eat that takes that sweetness out of you.
