join us today for a hot AGT pod as Jeff ruins Jason's birthday party, Jeff's daughter becomes the next Scorsesee, Jason thrives in Croatia, lime scooters get Jason down and we do a fashion haul showing exactly what Jason got for his birthday.
Friends engage in a series of casual conversations covering a wide range of personal topics. They discuss the stresses of birthday planning, social obligations, and a daughter's successful but embarrassing film thesis screening. Other topics include a luxury yacht trip to Croatia, travel mishaps in London, debates on fast fashion, gym dynamics with family, and reflections on aging.

And you're gonna have to do something about it. Well, no, it's just gonna like it's gonna be really expensive, right?
Cuz it'll go over my allotted budget, but like I have one friend

How many people I don't?
How many people I don't know six maybe four. I don't know six or four which one, you know exactly
You're like my friend. You've got the load on you like who's gonna be there?
I can't the problem was I can't cancel it and I know it's not
It's not as I don't want you to cancel it. Yeah, but why can't you?
It's a really good question. Hmm. Well, what would happen if you canceled it? It would just be the four do you I
Don't think you really want to know all the answers. That's the thing
My feelings. Yeah, it will
It's not a consequential dinner
What's consequential me? I know what it means, but like it's not it's not if we did cancel it
Yeah, but they were if we had canceled it
Earlier, they'd be like, okay. We'll reschedule. You're afraid of these people because you didn't pay the memo
If you cancel now a little bit then the demo
Just like well, what's gonna hurt my feelings go ahead tell me I can take it
It's just dinner with other people. It has no nobody's birthday. It's not it's not a big deal, right?
Right, but by someone's birthday is like I know Trump's just a regular old-fashioned dinner. I agree
I'm just trying to hang on here. I'm trying to stay married, you know
No, I get it. I get it already made plans. You got to go with me, you know, and I don't really care
I'm just doing it for the clock
So you wouldn't I mean you I would not we would not add anything to your dinner
Like you have all these people that you know that are coming. How many people are coming to your dinner?
Let's go that way. Let's go the other way Jay. Let's go to you like 18
Okay, so if Maureen and I did not show up, yeah, this would ruin the dinner. That's not the point the point
Oh, it is. No, that's not the point
The point is is I had already planned for you to sit next to me. Ah
So then I and yeah move those seating. I don't care about anyone else, but you that's the problem
I mean Naveen I care about but everyone else is coming. I don't right and I guess that's what it is
It's like a lot of people are a town
Yeah, and it's just it's gonna be fun and I'm grateful for the people that want to go but personally you want it to like
You want a bumblebee there? Yeah, I was looking forward to
Don't feel bad about it at all because ultimately I don't care. Okay. I really don't I really don't I could care less
We will do other fun things
Well, we're going out tonight. Yeah, we're going to dinner. Yeah, we're gonna go out tonight. Oh, you're saving me, too
First of all, I'm sorry that Maureen's not come to dinner. I'm so happy
Thank you so much because Maureen is having all the people
From her class over tonight and there might be like ******* karaoke and they're all
To be therapy. I think we go over there and I would just love to peek into that window. I would love it
I would eat it up
I would love to see the people that graduated in the class as I asked you over there in the kitchen before I started
The podcast. Yeah, I don't know. I said this is kind of a sexist thing to say. I said all women
Yeah, no, and you go. No, there's men in there. Oh, no for sure
11 people five women six. They all graduated. Yep. They all graduate and they're there
They're therapists and they're gonna karaoke in your living room
I don't know she what I would if I was a fly on the wall what I would love to see is Maureen
Gets to the point of like everybody's loose and we had food and there's drinks and then she's like who wants to karaoke?
and I just think that group would just like well, they would just
Fade into the wallpaper. I don't think what why because there I want
I saw their graduation. These people are not like outgoing. Oh
Therapists. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, they don't want they're not like
worms, yeah
Yeah, Jay
Not a term anybody uses I didn't want to say nerd. Yeah
Somebody somebody who said there's nothing wrong with a bookworm. Can I tell you something? I wish I could read
I had to do last night. Yeah was
Probably one of the hardest things that I have ever sat through in my life in my life. Oh, yeah, I've done a few things
Yeah, tell me tell me it was June's thesis
Yeah, and it's not just and I know I told you this before but it's not just that
So she's her cinema class is 23 people and they're all graduating. They all had to do a thesis movie
Yeah film so cool. And it was at vidiots idiots. Yeah, which is where
Quentin Tarantino used to work. Is that right? I don't know if that's true
I think you've maybe worked at the New Beverly where he owns it. Oh, it's a theater in
Eagle Rock whatever. There's a big documentary about vidiots. Yeah, and it's and about and about
You know how it was like the epicenter for film for a long time when people used to rent movies
Okay, which is so it's so that's super cool that your daughter is playing her. Yeah 15-minute movie. Yeah
Yeah, it's what 300 people. Yep, crazy easily 300 people
So cool such a good experience for somebody at that age to have correct. Oh amazing. How did it go?
Before you ---- all over it. I'm gonna ---- all over it's personal. How did it go for June? That's unbelievably great
I mean, that's good. They we love that the reaction to her film. Yeah was the highlight of the entire great
Except maybe the last film for a guy who worked on it for four years and his parents have a ton of money
And he shot all around the world. Oh
Sure, and it looked like had a big budget. It was insane. It was absolutely nice
But June chose this is the thing 300 people. It was one of the safty kids
Yeah, it was like so it's like a like the safty nuts like cousin. Yeah
Okay
Went around the world, huh?
The he did he literally wrote a thing after that that none of this was stock footage
There were like antelopes having babies in Africa in the movie, thank you. Oh really? Yeah
But then after we're we're post post talking about it at home with June and she's like, come on
There was some shots from space
Like you think Alejandro went to space?
stock footage
He said no he put it in there. No, oh he oh he he really but June June was said the drone up
June's movie was like it's Maureen in the movie. Okay, so here's the thing
This is a lot and I can't
I'm having a hard time all day. I'm still having a hard time. Okay, so June has only made narrative films
She makes beautiful narrative films. Okay, she chose for her thesis. Yeah to make a documentary
Yeah about our family going to more Maureen's mom's for Christmas. Oh, it's so good
15 minutes amazing of
Us Maureen's mom's a hilarious and it's you guys want to try my box
That's Maureen's joke that she always tells me. Yeah
Yeah, she was that sushi and her dad and her dad couldn't decide what to get for sushi and then her Maureen's mom said
Tom
You should order my box last time. You ate all my box. You loved my box
Try my box try my box. Oh my god last time you ate it all my box you ate it all up
You loved my box. You couldn't stop eating my box. Yeah, that's great
So we're going to her okay her house for Christmas and Maureen just and June decides to make a film. Yeah, and it is
all no holds barred it is
Ridic, I saw the first like string out. It was 100. It was like an hour and 45 minutes had to be 15 minutes
Man and she made an amazing an amazing film great. It was bizarrely like
Like a holiday movie. Yeah, because there was the main characters, which is Maureen and her mom
Yeah, and which by the way afterwards I was laying in bed last night. I realized I was like, oh my god
I had the best role. I had the best role. I was like this I had you know, like, you know, like I don't know
Remember that's like terrible movie it's complicated with like
With like yeah, Diane Keaton. No. Oh, that's the wrong movie the movie with Alec Baldwin and
Anyway, I'm like John I'm like, yeah, I get him confused there Nancy Meyers movies
I got all the man like occasionally a Nancy Miles Meyers movie will have like a guy who has no stakes and it's just like
Really great. Hmm. Yeah
No one with Alec Baldwin is Steve Martin
Steve Martin out Baldwin Meryl Streep and John Krasinski is just like the the he gets married to Meryl Streep's daughter
Yeah, and he has no stakes. Okay, it's like some great lines. Yeah, that was my role. Okay. Okay, so good
Oh, yeah. Yeah killed it. No, but it was really hard. So imagine if you have a no-holds-barred like
Pull back the curtain. This is my family 15-minute documentary. Yeah, and
Max and
June is somewhere else in the audience and Maureen and I are sitting in the audience with 300 people. Yeah, and it is
crazy, like would there is
Craziness going on. It's just like we're lamenting going to her mom's her mom
Oh, the movie's crazy. The movie's crazy. Great. Great Tilly Maureen's mom Matilda is
Just a such a character there was like a scene where she you know
What a chime bowl is where you're like big bowl and you hit it with a thing and you're like, I want to do this
So she she back up back up. Yeah, it's a chime bowl chime bowl. Okay, okay
It's a chime bowl. Okay, she right and then she was giving instead of grace for
Dinner on Christmas. She wanted to do it. She wanted a chime. Okay, everybody
There's a video of us all sitting around which is a boing
Wow and she's a real Northern Cal ship. Yeah. Oh my god
Like a whole this is for Marie. Yeah, I didn't know she was like that. Oh a little hippie-dippie. Oh my god
Okay. Oh, yeah. Okay. Okay. She always in early days
She'd always be like who wants to get naked in the hot tub and I'm like nobody
Nobody wants to get naked Wow. Yeah, you should go out there naked
Some hurt she kept Tom let's go let's go naked. Oh, they used to go naked. Yeah, and we would all stay in the house
Oh, wow. Yeah. Yeah, totally
So we watch this movie. Yeah in front of 300 people. Yeah, like it is as Marines mom there
No, no, and she's actually doesn't know about the film. Okay. I haven't seen it yet. Oh, okay
Lawsuit. Yeah. No weird. We have a problem because she's coming for graduation and it was she like I gotta see the film
Yeah, well she will because it was the hit of the ******* thesis. That's great. And at graduation everyone's gonna be like, oh, you're
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Oh my god. Imagine. Okay. Think of this the normal person. It's really funny
Yeah, the normal person. Yeah has a fear of karaoke right at a public establishment, right?
You have a fear of karaoke right going up in front of people and singing a song. Yeah
There's a section in the film where
Maureen made we all did karaoke on Christmas Eve like after dinner and cocktails
yeah, and it just cuts to karaoke and
Like Maureen is doing the go-go's this town and she's like on it. She is dropping the hammer
Okay on this town. Mm-hmm, and then I cuts to me and I'm doing I ran by flock of seagulls
I'm like, and I'm I'm singing to Maureen. Yeah, I had a couple martinis and I'm like
I'm like literally like find a girl like you
I'm like yelling
Screaming and then okay, I literally the lyrics are on the phone
I literally dropped the phone and she cuts like it's the most comedic. Oh, really?
Yeah, and Max sings like imagine doing karaoke
For some people and being being embarrassed imagine sitting in a theater of 300 people
And karaoke comes up like and we're like in the audience like people we know so many people
Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Had you seen the film before she's I had and I knew that it was gonna be a thing
Yeah, so we were turning into your dad after people coming up. Oh, so this is what happened. Yeah, so I I
Watched the we watched the film and it was like really hard to to sit through. Yeah, and it was point
It was really beautiful. The reason why I was so good and I'll just not
Gosh about my daughter. It's because
Whether she understood it or not, and I think she did it's like, you know
Like the holiday or like any holiday film any Christmas movie? Yeah, which is about family
Yeah, she took those tenants from that move from that genre and she applied it to a documentary
Oh, so it's about the conflict of her mom and her grandmother. All right, and how it will how it
Bubbled up and how it was resolved. Oh, wow, and it was amazing really good. It was really amazing
Really good. It was beautiful and amazing and so good
but where I was left with like
So well after her film there was like also do you had to sit through 11 13 more films after that, right?
It's a total of 23 films. Yeah, so I went four hours four hours almost four. So like six to ten you were there
Yep left at 10. Oh five
Yeah, for real what you do for food
Beer I'd be here. We're gonna bring it by vines and popcorn. You have anything. Did you eat when you got home?
Yep ate when I got home
Okay, so, uh, I got up a couple times to go to the bathroom because there's like two hours left in the thing
Yeah, and I'm just people are stopping me out in the lobby like her documentary teacher
another teacher
People random people and some woman stopped Maureen and said that was amazing. She's like, oh, okay. Thank you
And she goes I just have to ask you
What's that real?
It was like uproarious laughter, oh really? Oh my god, it was crazy
Oh my god, and then we saw what you were saying before is so we get up
It's over the pole film festivals over and we're it's like we gotta get out of here. Yeah, we gotta get out of here and
we have max and
We're leaving in June sitting somewhere else with your friends and I'm like in the lobby
Because we sat in the back and I'm in the lobby and I'm like, oh ----
What about June and Maureen's like she's like grabbing my shirt and she's like
Why did she want to leave so bad she did not was embarrassed
She didn't want to see anybody and talk about it. Really? Yeah, and um, hmm, and I was like, hmm
That means it film was really good
The thing is I was like, what about June?
Sure, I didn't know if she had a ride or anything like that. I'm like, no we gotta wait here for June
We have to grab June. Yeah, congratulate June. She's like in the car where we'll do it in the car
But didn't you want to hang out and like, you know, she get her accolades
It was a school day. She was done. She wanted to go but the point was
the point was
That point started accusing me in the lobby of wanting
She's like you want she's like you want to stay here. Oh, I hate when they do that
Oh, yeah, and if he won't do that to me, she's like you'd love it. Yeah. Yeah. She's like you want the attention you want
Jeff you want to stick around and have everybody tell you how funny you were
That's what you want. It's a hundred percent. What happened? Yeah hundred person. You didn't really care
I think at this age like I don't think either of us
Care to I was thinking about it the other day. I was like
There's no
There's no joy that comes out of that. No, no, no, that's okay. That is a
necessity of someone I think
Younger who's learning how to find their voice and do things, right? They need something, right?
Right, but I was so mad that she was accusing me. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, I we are going to the car
Like I was like I doubled down on the car
Just thanks back trying to get an agent out. Yeah, and she's like and then she's like she's like
Well, somebody has to text June and I'm like, yeah, I'm going to the car. Yeah, I don't care how she gets
Cuz I was like doubling down not wanting the accolades, yeah in retrospect I was like
Don't make me say you did want the accolade don't make me say it god damn you brother
It was a night and I I am still exhausted. Ah, that was last night. It was last night. So fun
I know man, it was fun. She's I'm so impressed with her. I really yeah, I really am impressed with her
I really could I see the movie? Yeah, I don't have it, but I'll get it for you. How could I see it?
She's holding it tight to the vest. I was like, oh, you know what also
Don't care what you bum gardener don't care about you, but
She had to go through the process that we have both gone through which I love and it turned out great
Yeah, it turned out great. I love my qualified thing. I'm qualifying so hard right now and I mean it
I really mean it. Yeah, but I just had I had a personal conniption
because
she she was late in finishing her movie and she hadn't scored it and all the people in the
Music program at school had already been hard at work scoring other people's films
Yeah, and she couldn't find anybody to score it. And so she was like, do you think uncle Pete would do it?
Yeah, it's like totally. Yeah, totally and Pete scored it. Okay, it was amazing
Oh great, but she went through the Pete process, you know, like and it wasn't bad. It was great
It was awesome, and I'm not seeing anything bad about that at all
but I just have PTSD because we used to work with Pete and do a lot of things with Pete and I was like
I had to be like
Okay, go to that do that. We used to do a podcast with Jeff's brother. Yeah, it was great
And we had a fight once this is all I remember
I don't remember too much of all of it and granted he did so much he did and so tell we wouldn't wouldn't be able
To have a podcast without him because Jeff and I did not do this is 2006
Yeah, the equipment is not where it is now
No
we were like if we were like we want to do a podcast and he was like he figured I could figure that out and we
Were like you are like you're a superhero
Like he was fed up
I go into the house. I tell Marty I'm like, I don't want to do I can't ******* figure this ---- out
Bring a podcast and then I swear to God and Pekin Pekin it probably attests to this or not
And maybe we'll call him sometime, but I'm pretty sure like two days later. I just brought the equipment back
Okay, we're rolling
These are the things that I worried about when she was like, I'm gonna use uncle Pete to to score it
but very talented and very talented and then he probably loved it like if I had a
Niece or nephew if I could do that for them. That's like that's like the greatest thing
I think he did love it. And yeah, it was very good
He did simple music and was so good and I was very anyway, it was great
But I just had it was my own ---- that I was like, oh you're gonna use Pete like oh like from those things
So all that stuff. Okay, and I I just literally have been a puddle since last night a puddle. What do you mean crying?
Just exhausted. Yeah, you why have you ever?
You gotta you have I have not watched myself in front of 300 people. Oh
Played well, at least they should go and getting laughs up there. Apparently it was fake. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah
Yeah, it was crazy. I really want to see it. Oh my god. It was crazy. There's no link, right?
No, I have to come over to the house and no she sit in front of the TV
It's one of those things your kids do because I was like, hey, did you send it to Pete?
And she's like at first she's like no I have to do that. I was like, okay, you gotta you gotta get it to be
you know, yeah, and he had seen cuts cuz he was
Scoring it and then and then I was like when you send it to Pete though the final thing
Can you send it to me too? And she's totally and then yeah last night. I was like, hey wait
You sent it to Pete right and she's like, yeah, and I was like
not to me
Sorry, I will
And everybody will tell me like

He was like, hey do what you want. You should have been like in your face doc. Yeah
Yeah, well, I could have but I didn't but yeah, and I had the best time
Yeah, it was like it's hard to talk about cuz it's like I was on a yacht
So it's just like what you have no concept you you can't even first of all you get on there
The bedrooms are really nice. It's three meals a day. The food's really good. You're traveling through the Croatian
Sea, it's beautiful. There's mountains all over
Also the group that I go with on these trips with
They're all young and they like don't they go out at night. Mm-hmm. So a lot of the day is like that's fun. Mm-hmm, but then
They're like we're going out tonight and they're going out. It's like, you know, they leave it like 1130. Oh god
Yeah, like they they go out late. Yeah, they'll be out to like 6 in the morning and Naveen's actually doesn't like to do that
Oh, so we usually just go home. Hey Jay, that's how you know
Yeah, no, you're she's the one she's the one and so but on this trip
They couldn't go anywhere. Oh
So it was like class it was just so fun if you like, oh
They they're not going to the club tonight. Yeah, they're we're gonna held hostage with you. Yeah, they're gonna play imposter
We're gonna like everything imposter
Yeah, that's so good. Yeah, and so you played games and play games had some fun
Just finally turn into old people. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, they were forced to yeah. Yeah. Yeah, and you said stuff like you don't know
What dial-up is?
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah
Yeah, but playing imposter my imposter references. Yeah first. Yeah, because I think I said something like I
They got so mad at me. I said like Hitler's wife
Mm-hmm
Yeah
But it was really cool because it would be like you would wake up
Wake up, you know awesome do a little workout and do a podcast
Then at 12, they'd put out like the inflatables, you know
And they would park somewhere and like maybe like 12 feet of water take the jet ski out ******* amazing
Then have lunch at 2 30 then every day at 3 o'clock. The little boat would take you to a new town
And you would go to the town and yeah
A lot of people didn't want to go but why but Naveen and I are like first of all, let's get some steps
Let's get off this boat for a couple hours. Yeah
It's just like ******* amazing. It's like what do people do there?
Yeah, do they know in the town?
well, the first town was called starry grad and it's like one of the oldest towns in Europe and it was
It's pretty it was pretty barren. There wasn't like too much going on there. There's a got a good coffee
You know had a little lunch, you know, it wasn't much then the next day. We went to a different
Town and it was like Newport Beach. It was just like restaurants and a dayclub and it was just
Amazing. It was just like and then everything was great. And then we were coming home and
We only had an hour and a half even be asking this hour and a half for a connection and an international flight is okay
I think that's enough time. It depends but I could be cutting it close cutting it close. Yeah, no, we missed it
No, then we got stuck in London. Yeah for one night. We had to stay in London one night. Where'd you stay Max's house?
No, we stayed at the I took the free hotel at the airline sure and so then I stay out by the hotel
Did you go into London because we went into we stayed out by the hotel?
But we went into London to meet our friends and London is *******
Insane. Yeah, it's on another level. Yeah, it's on another level. It's like civilized, New York
Yeah, hey, I couldn't believe it. I couldn't believe all the people I couldn't be how much fun everyone is having
I couldn't believe like
Mm-hmm. You've walked by these like little pubs. They look like movie sets. Yeah all lit up
We went to a restaurant called Zuma in London. It was a sushi place
We were supposed to I really wanted to get Indian food. You should call max
He knows all the places. Oh, but he was there, right? No, but he would just tell you he would just tell you where
We just didn't have that much time. We literally had 12 hours there Indian food. You gotta go
I know and and I really wanted to and then I had to make a choice of like
Am I gonna go to the Indian food what I want to do or am I gonna go hang with everybody?
What part of town were you in? Oh
All right. Oh, I know where I was. I was like
See Kensington Gardens. Sure Kensington. Yeah, we went through there. I think was somewhere somewhere around there. I went by the peninsula. Mm-hmm
but then we were coming home and
12 12-hour flight home and it was really rough and Naveen lost her mind at the end
She was like she was saying like she was saying crazy things on the plane. Really? Yeah, she was like
We're flying home. She goes. She's not getting our bags
What do you mean? She's not getting him again. I'm not getting the bags. I'm not getting them and I go. Oh
Okay. What do you mean? She's like I can't I can't I can't get the bags and I'm like
She's saying this on the plane as we're landing. I'm like, okay
I'm pretty good. Now. I don't I don't I don't bite, you know, like I don't ever
I don't take the baby don't get in. I don't take the bait. I do. No, I don't take the bait
Yeah, I just go. Okay. Yeah like that and she keeps saying it and
So then we get we're going through customs
She gets pulled over cuz you know
Her maiden names the booze a knob. Yeah
For whatever reason maybe because she's like born in Lebanon shows gets pulled over. Sure, or maybe they're just racist
Yeah, probably if she gets pulled over I'm waiting for
I think my appendix burst. She's like, I'm not getting the not getting the bags. I'm going into the uber. Yeah, I want I'm going home
I don't care. I'll leave you here
So we just left you slept without your bags
Really?
Really because she thought because this the plane the the the ticket was so messed up and we had to like we missed the connecting
Flight she was sure that the bags wouldn't be on there and she was so sick
That we so anyways we drove home and then of course the next day she's like the bags came in
She's like we have to go back to the airport
So 430 in the morning we went this morning really? Oh, you must be pooped. I'm so pooped. I bet yeah
and yeah, I just I just had a nice time and and I'm trying to
You gotta learn from that you were so trying to learn from you're lamenting that so much
Yeah, I guess it's just a thing of like not
it's really just the flying and and the pressure to like I
You know what? It is. It's like nothing is really a vacation
Sure for me. Sure. There's no it's I it's still work. Mm-hmm, you know, so you have to you know
There's a lot I was on the boat like trying to like think of skits and like I was shooting skits and trying to shoot
brand deals that I have and
But but it wasn't it was amazing and it's really it's really weird to tell someone you're on a yacht
Yeah, yeah, it's weird tip. It's weird to lament about going on a yacht. That's what I was getting at last week
That's like oh you're going on a yacht. Yeah, I know and you were good
You're like I try not to act like this is like I'm trying to be better about yeah
It's great. Yeah, you you went your work was you went to Croatia?
Got on the yacht went to small towns. Every time you say yeah, it's just like yeah
Yeah, what are you talking about? Yeah
No, I mean the Larry David of all this you your wife was like, I'm not getting the bags, right?
Right. Yeah, they'll just did she think they just bring them to you like later. No, she just didn't think they were there
Just she's like, oh they like they didn't make it
They didn't second flight which which was a sort of a reasonable thought because when she asked the guy he's like
There's no bags on this ticket. It's anything coming up. That's super exciting. Just this shirt that shirt. It's exciting
Yeah, I so I'm really happy for myself that I called you out on

What brand is on my go Tommy Hilfiger and then I thought he's gonna be like Tommy Hilfiger is a racist
It's like I got really self-conscious
Then he just goes oh, I thought it was a French brand
Riviera blonde or something. I forget and I was like, no, it's not a French brand
It's just Tommy Hilfiger because I have a I don't wear polos, but I have one. Why don't you wear polos?
They don't look good. I don't look good on me. Really? Yeah, what do you mean? They don't look good on you
It just you know everybody. No, it doesn't look good on everybody. Yeah, you have to put it on some

Okay, so you're in Marshall's is home goods bag. Oh, yeah, it's bag everybody bigger. It's from Marshall's. Hold on
Home goods bag. All right. Here's the other thing that happens. It's like going away going to Marshall's. I go. Yeah. Yeah

Then I feel this like inordinate pressure to buy something that she suggests. Oh, is that what that's
The jeans the jeans I wanted okay the jeans you wanted, okay
Okay. All right your frame
Frame. Yeah, Naveen says they're like $300 jeans. Oh, wow, but I don't know. Well, they are

My shirt stinks really? Yeah. Okay, and then go in there and get the last thing. Okay, this is the thing
I'm scared. Okay, go ahead. It's okay. Be 100% honest. You've already hurt my feelings. Why not come in my birthday party
This is like is this like a swinger shirt or what?
Hold pineapple on the door
Really that you can pull this up I can never win. Yeah, I mean
You mean was like you got to get it and I was like, all right, I'll get it
Yeah, but they ended up spending $134 at Marshall's when I could have probably gone to Buck Mesa
Yeah, and had a clean conscience and
And not having some funny I'm gonna go with an idea that this is like this might be a little like
This when you go when you when you go shopping and you put it up
Do you put up just too lazy to go? Did you try it on? Yeah, did you try the jeans?
I don't try stuff on you. Don't I can't I can't do that. I can't chase a Nash. I can't
Do you have no idea how this fits? No idea and that's everything but I mean it was like $13
It doesn't it's not good at all. Maybe I'll just take it back. I know but then she has to go back
Yeah, I know but it took to walk back into Marshall's get a number get a ticket try stuff on and then
The time of like what do you think?
That's the whole point
No, I think that's absolute torture really is the most torturous thing in life
I just buy it if it's good. It's good. If it's not it's not that's like we'll take it back if it doesn't fit
I mean, I
I'm fine. You're speechless. I'm speechless because you didn't try it on
I don't know because I know you like to go to Buck Mason and get a little scotch and have a little yeah dressing
Yeah, and talk about it with the people who work there
Only trying to like you come out and they're like that looks really good. I hate that. Oh, yeah, I hate that
Really good on you
Wow, that's the worst and then what do you think of the pineapple?
Snacks, I mean, I think it's all suggestive that you think the whole place is like an upside-down pineapple and then you buy pineapple
Don't worry we're not doing any swinging over here. All right, well that was like
Oh, I'm fine with this. I just wouldn't buy it at Marshall's. Yeah, but like you ever have drizzle issues
No, you've never had drizzle issue. You brought it up on the podcast. Hey, you get it at Marshall's like half price. I
Love saving money. I love it. I love it. You do CBS Awards. Nope. Oh my god
I know you go to CBS. Nope, just Maureen. Nope. What do you Walgreens? What do you mean for what pharmacy?
Where do you go, where do you go for like you need like paper towels toilet paper and we get it
