There's a mystery. There's a mystery today. We will cut some dead waves.

Yeah. Bye, bitch. Last episode, Ders, you offended us, and now... We were pissed. Ders was like being all flagrant in the last episode. We said, bye, bitch. Oh, yeah, the bitch. Yeah, that's enough. We thought it might be a good idea for us to, in our careers right now, distance ourselves. Yeah. Yeah.

Do you freaking see ya? Is Ders the most cancelable? Who's the most cancelable out of the four of us? He's just a jerk. Yeah, maybe Ders. He's not here. See ya, bitch. Bye. That being said, he had a prior engagement. He could not join this podcast. And we said, you know what?

Fuck it! Let's do it. Oh, yeah, the bitch. That's a huge bitch. Yeah, sorry, dude. So this podcast is going to be a lot of stingers from the board, right, Blake? Dude. I'm ready to go in, man. Screw that guy. Yeah, dude, hit it. I'm so pissed at him. Okay!

I'm pissed now. Oh, yeah. Classic. Hey, guys. Hey, I'm sorry to bail on the podcast so quickly. What are you doing? Where are you going? I forgot how hot my house was. I have to turn the AC down. It's 85 degrees in this house. It's still hot from the last. And then there were two. Give me 30 seconds. Just, hey, talk amongst yourselves. I'll be right back. See you. And then there were two.

Wow. Hi, Kyle. What's up, Blazer? How are you, buddy? How are you, brother? What have you been up to, man? Saw you over in Canada recently. I was traveling, yeah. Hitting up the Vancouver, you know. Oh, yeah.

How's the parents? I heard, what are they, they're driving cross country? Yeah, yeah. Well, they're actually over there right now. They're on the East Coast in their RV. East Coast Canada. Hey, there we go. Enough about them, you know. What about... Wait, East Coast Canada? We're talking like Montreal? They're like on the furthest east. Like two days ago, they were on the furthest east coast.

eastern point of North America. Like my mom was fucking hyped on being one of the first people to watch the sunrise in North America. Yeah, that seems like your mom would get hyped on things. She was so hyped. I saw first. First. No one else saw that. So, but we don't know what this area is called. What this, what are they over there? Providence? What are they called? So your parents are on like a giant...

Are they in an RV? Is that what's happening? Yeah, yeah. They're in an RV and they tow their Jeep. Do they own this RV? Did they go retirement style, bought a sick-ass RV? Yep. That's sick. Yep. They bought an RV and now they tow a Jeep Gladiator behind it because my dad's gotten deep into four-wheeling and stuff. Oh, my God, Becky. Hell, yeah. I love this. Fuck it.

He goes out with his buds out in the forest because his other bud has a Jeep, too. And then they just off-road? And smoke weed. Yeah, and they chain trees and move them out of the way so they can get through and stuff. You can't do that. Wait, what? You can't do what? You can't just start to chain. You can't do that? No, like an already felled tree? Yes, you can. A felled? No. Did you say felled tree? I did say felled tree. And felled isn't a word, right? Yes, it is. I think it is. It is. It is. Felled?

An already felled tree. An already felled tree. I don't. Felled is not a word. No, no, it is. It is. You're a stupid dumbass. Like if you have to take a tree down, you say, I have to fell this tree. And how would you spell felled? I think it's F-E-L-L-E-D. Here we go. Wait, put your votes in now. Is felled a word? I say yes. Hey, you're right, dude. Felled. Yeah.

I've never heard anyone say I've seen fallen trees. Of course. Well, felled is when you do it on purpose. No, it's just a fallen tree. It's just the tree was felled, right? It's like that's what happened. I think I probably sound like an absolute idiot right now, but this is my understanding. I can't wait for someone to get a hold of this little clip. It's three fucking idiots. Ugh.

Without Dersh to like steer us back to... This will be our dumbest podcast yet. Dumbest podcast yet. Yeah.

I thought felled was like when you cut the tree down. Like it was man cutting a tree down. Yeah, that's what you said. I have to fell this tree. Maybe a tree is not felled. No. Yes. No, because then there's a fallen tree, but we're talking about felding a tree. Well, Adam's the one with the...

What's it called? Hard stance? No, he's not looking at Wikipedia. He just put it in and saw if there was a red line underneath that you misspelt the word. I looked it up. He's got a dictionary. Yeah. What is it called? A dictionary? Well, I just typed in Feld in Google, man. How do you look up words? You go to dictionary.com. That's a step too far. That's a one-two step. That's a one-two step. You lose. So 33 million trees are felled each day. What?

This is big. Which is an insane thing to say. I feel like this must be some old-timey, like George Washington would say, we must fell these trees down to build the first road. I feel like Austin says fell. I feel like your buddy Austin. No, felled. He felled the tree. Felled is the only way to say I'm chopping down a tree. You felled it. Right. You can't say I'm chopping down this tree. Well, you say I'm cutting the tree down. You don't say I'm felding a tree.

I think people in the industry. What, the logging industry? I'm talking lumberjacks, bitch. Huge in Canada. I saw all the logs in the rivers up there. It's so sick. Yes, we're talking Canada. Now I know. Yeah, we're talking real Canada shit.

How much of Canada have you covered? We still don't know where they are. Is that Nova Scotia? Oh, I forgot. I got to pick that up. I think it's like New Prince Edward Island or something like that. Remember back in the day when Blake didn't like Canada and then now he's like so pro-Canada? Remember when he had that hard stance in the writer's room of War Collies where he was like, Canada has no history, dude. And we're like, what? Yeah, they do. Every place has history. He's like, no, none. They have no history. Fuck.

Canada. And then we went and shot Game Over Man up there, and now you're like, I love Canada, dude. Canada rocks. Okay, well, there's two things that... Well, three things that worked there. One, I had to defend the United States because writers on our show were coming for us. They were saying our national anthem sucked. They said lots of things. They were coming for us as Americans? Yes, the U.S., my friend. Us. Okay. So they were saying our... What's happening? Why are you so defensive? Dude, remember

He gets riled when he talks about patriotism. I was pissed. They were saying that Canada had a better national anthem and all this. So I was like, I had the hard stance to be, you know, I had to put up a fight for our country, guys. And you didn't have my back. Well, I had your back. I like our national anthem. I think it's fucking banging, dude. Yeah, it freaking rocks. I do, too. I think it's great. Hard one to sing. It goes. It goes.

It goes. It fucking, it slaps as the kids said probably a couple years ago and probably don't say anymore. Yeah.

Do the kids, Blake, do the kids still say slapped? No. Well, now slap has like it's been, what do we say, like gentrified? Like people use it incorrectly. Like slap is just lost in the wind. How do they use it incorrectly? Like what? These nachos slap? You can't say that. But people say that now. A lot of people from the Bay Area say food doesn't slap. A lot of people say like –

That's not a thing. Yeah, that makes sense. It smacks. It smacks. Food can smack. Food should smack. You think food should smack. That makes total sense to me. Food should smack and music slaps. Yes, thank you. There you go. Right there. All right. All right. Hey, our podcast should be called The Final Word.

Bro, if we had a button that said the final word. The final word. Or it says like, this is how it is. We said it. It's a bagel. That's the final word, all right? And that's the final word. That's it. Hey, that's our, you might be a redneck. You might, here's your sign. I like it. And that's the final word. I like that.

The other thing that I didn't know is that – or at the time when I was taking the hard stance is I hadn't been to Canada before. Right, right. So ignorance is bliss. That was my favorite part about that hard stance that you were taking is you had never been. That's the American way. You got to say you hate a place before you've even visited or even looked up what it is.

That's the whole ignorance. Yeah, ignorance is bliss, bro. Just pick a side and go. Yeah, dude, you have to. That's the American way. Double down, triple down, quadra down. Quadra. Ignorant. I'm a dumbass. How many? Well, because I've been to what? Now I've been to Vancouver, which I love. When the weather's nice, it is truly a heavenly spot. Beautiful right now. And that's a huge asterisk.

When the weather's not nice, you're like, this is the grayest, wettest place I've ever been. Yeah. It sucks. Yeah. It has some Seattle vibes, which is also sick. Yeah. I don't mind the Pacific Northwest. I don't mind it. I think it's all right. I think the weather's always okay. It's gray, but it's not like full snow, like cold as fuck.

Fuck. It gets cold. It does. Well, I think when we shot Game Over Man, we shot it in an abandoned, not an abandoned, but a old ice cream factory. Yes. Yeah. So it was cold outside to where you're like, well, yeah, we got to wear a jacket, you know? And then inside, way colder.

Way colder inside. That was kind of why. Yeah, so you're like, you were so fucking frozen. And then you're like frozen from your day of work. And then you leave and it's still cold. And you're like, this fucking sucks though. That's because I'm a sweaty actor. And I have to have it like freezing inside or I will like sweat through my shirt. Well, that is not the reason. It was the fact that it was an ice cream factory. So it was insulated. It was a big move.

It was a boss move by me, Adam. I told Kyle, keep it. Oh, yeah. That was your first boss move? Your first big swinging dick move was, it has to be 40 degrees inside at all times.

Sorry. Whoopsies. Sorry, baby. I do prefer to work in a cold environment as opposed to a hot environment. Absolutely. I'll pick that any day. Sure. Yeah. But I do like a just right environment. I remember the first season of Workaholics. I think I was like so, one, so much caffeine coursing through my veins at all times. And also the nerves of like doing the first season of Workaholics.

you know, the show that we had such high hopes for, I would sweat through my shirts and they would give me my under, I would have to wear an undershirt. And then they, they like fastened, they like put like women's like depends in my fucking armpits. What?

What's up, Mel? You had diapers in your armpits in season one of Workaholics? Yeah, it was like little diapers. Diapers? Or like little absorber pads? Like a period. Like a period pad, but it's absorbing. It's for like vagina juices. But mine is for the pit juice. So not to pens. Maxi pad. Wait, why didn't we write that into the show? Why did...

Or at least have Jillian's character. I don't know that I've ever even heard about this. I feel like... And then I did for like... Maybe... That was like literally day one. I was juicing my pit so much. And then they were like... This is the way. Hey...

guess what? Like Cynthia was like, I got, I got this for you. And, and I'm like, Oh, this is insane, but I guess I'll just rock it. And then I rocked it for like maybe two seasons. Cause I didn't know any better. And then I finally like, she's like, ah, we don't have them today. I hope it's okay. And then I wore the shirt and I wasn't nervous anymore. Cause I'd been doing it. And I probably could have taken them off for the second day of work, but I just never did. So I was just wearing these things all up in my pits for like a solid day.

Year plus. God.

I'm going to have to check the tapes for that. I want to see if you've got those puffy armpits. Yeah, that's why I developed that Demamp swagger. I just couldn't put my arms down to the right side. Just your arms aren't going down? We thought you were swole. We're like, Adam's in the gym, dude. He's trapped. No, they weren't that thick. They were pretty. They were, you know. It was just enough to sop up some juices. Yeah, yeah. Just a layer of protection. Yeah. Just one layer of protection. Yeah. I don't like you had to do two or anything. Yeah, it was a feminine pad.

Oh, dude. Not to get back to Canada, but I'm obsessed with it and I love it and I would like to talk about it.

Oh, yeah. Okay. So Vancouver, right? What's the next one? What's the next one that you'd like to talk about? What other place do you hate that you've never been that you're actually going to love? Where was your stance on Mexico? I feel like we've lived in Southern California for long enough that you probably always kind of liked Mexico because Mexico is fucking awesome. Mexico, right.

Yeah, well, I mean, I feel like my parents and people, they try to promote like a healthy fear. Maybe it's not even healthy. They just promote fear of Mexico where they're like Mexico is scary. You're going to like bad things are going to happen if you go there. The cartel, all this and that.

That is just not the case. No. Yeah. No, no, no. That is not the case. Admittedly, the border towns are more dangerous than the other side of the border. But if you take a plane and just go to Cabo or whatever, it's perfectly fine. Yeah. It's a very nice place. I mean, I got buried there. I hope I just didn't get buried in the fucking... Yeah, no. Mexico rocks. I like Mexico a lot.

I love going there. Mexico rules. I think I would love to live there. And infinitely better food. Fucking Canada's food. Canada struggles. I like Canada. I love Canadian people. Canada struggles. Dude, their food game is...

They have diarrhea. No, no, no, no, no. Let's not hit them that hard, Adam. Yeah, no, you guys are being ridiculous. Oh, dude, fuck Canada's food. No, you're being stupid. You're being stupid, and you're generalizing a large place.

right now uh okay every place i've been so vancouver mexican food is not good i can get behind that vancouver toronto montreal those three places i did not love the food vancouver has okay food they're they're all right but nobody has great mexican food nobody in canada has great mexican food never get mexican food in canada that is absolutely true and that's specifically what i was thinking i just want to because we went to get mexican food at the place that everyone's like

dude, it's actually pretty good for Vancouver, Mexico food. And then we went there and it was like, they're putting like mayonnaise on shit. And it was like, you look back there and it's just like five fucking big headed white guys working back there. And you're like, this isn't, this is not right. This is not proper.

At least Vancouver has a pretty big Asian community, so you can get some really good Asian food out there. I know that's a large net to cast, but there's some really good places. I've had some bomb ass. Oh, hell yeah. Oh, hell bomb ass. I've had some bomb ass. Yeah, you kind of got lost in that thought a little bit. Well, I was just thinking about, I think it was Vietnamese food, and it was like this pounded out, like...

like veal dish i wish i had the name of the place it's so freaking good okay okay it's very good when i went up to vancouver just uh i went to banditas do you remember that place it was like a vegetarian burrito place oh shout out yeah dude place and and i was like oh dude was this just good when i went up there and then i had it this last week and it's

Fucking good, bro. Yes, dude. Yes. I'll go ahead and say it. What's up? What's up? Infinitely worse than luggage talk. It's not. No, man. This is infinitely worse than luggage talk.

We're talking about places. You don't remember half of them. Blake's like, oh, I wish I could remember. It was good. It was a good meal I had once. I just remembered a restaurant. What are you doing coming out? You remembered a restaurant. So you're calling out a restaurant. I am. Yeah. I am doing that, yes. And I'm conversing with two of my friends, which I believe...

is the job. I know. I'm just saying it's not, dude, it's, it's all about the sweet content. And I'm telling you, as far as boring topics go, this is worse than luggage talk. Right now we are the Vancouver and Canadian board of tourism. We are sending people to one of the best. Dude, they're going to flock to the city and go, Hey, there's like a, uh, like a pounded veal. Uh,

that you have to... I don't know where it's at. Yeah. Blake told me it's here. That is true. Okay, okay. I don't know. Just wherever. I know there's Asian food here, but I'm here for the pounded veal. Dude, I'm really actually trying to remember this burrito joint that...

Sean Malto put me on. It's like next to a skate shop. It's so good. I wish I knew the name. Wow. Budgies. It's called Budgies. Shout out Budgies Burrito in Vancouver. And now we have two places to get flowers at the end of the episode. I'll be going there. If you are in Vancouver, please hit up Budgies. It is a delicious, uh,

burrito that it's, it's not necessarily like super Mexican authentic tasting, but it is delicious. Yeah. Pizza's inside of it. It's, it's a fries and gravy on the inside of this. Did I do that? It's a poutine. Blake genuinely, bro. Thank you for the recommendation because I will be visiting Vancouver and I will be hitting up budgies because I found it interesting. Hey, but what are you putting your clothes in to get there?

That's the question, dude. I haven't started talking about that, but I've been thinking about getting new luggage. I've been thinking about it. Hey, you can't do this, man. You can't do this. I need another size. I need another size. Dude, the rats pissed and shit over a lot of my luggage. One of my favorite pieces, I have a Away Carry-On. You know it's a problem when you call your luggage a piece. Yeah.

An away carry-on that was a basketball. I hate this. And it was gripped on the outside much like a Spalding basketball. Loved it. Wow, that's actually kind of psyched. Dude, they pissed some shit on it. Gotta get new luggage. Yeah, I'm sorry about that.

Give us the walk down of the day because it did – were you blackout drunk at any point of that day? Because I was looking at photos and I didn't – I think –

I was a little disappointed that I saw a light in your eyes. Thank you, Adam. Oh, come on. Let them in, bro. No, no, no. I know. I love him for this. I'm happy for him because it definitely made him a more reliable person to be on TV. And I want people to hire Blake and have him get these cool experiences.

But just as a friend who knows that Blake likes- Adam. Wanted to just chug fucking fish bowls full of vodka. This is insane because you are literally peering into my soul and I'm so glad you clocked this. Dude, I was following along throughout the day and I just saw- I saw my Blake. I saw like this sober Blake, like things turn in his head like-

like a clear vision and I was like oh no I feel bad for him because I know I know he wants to be fucking blacked out right now so drunk that I think it's a good idea to jump into the audience and crowd surf yeah I wanted to get there yes but you are exactly right and what what had

Well, we started the day. I brought my brother, AJ, the young GoHard out. Oh, young GoHard. By the way, Kate, put a pin in this real quick. Just followed AJ, I mean, maybe two days ago. I think I saw...

uh, I think I saw your post about that. You follow to AJ. Um, let tell him, does he ever, he has a serious girlfriend now, right? So, cause yeah, that's why I don't shout my brother out. And I already deleted his name off of that post because I just don't want hose in the DM. Yeah. Just the babes and all the boys. He's a good looker. Hot dude. Blake is, uh,

Sorry, you're hot too, Blake. But AJ is maybe even hotter. You should see the two of them in a room together. It's incredible. The fucking Pitt family over here. Okay, carry on. AJ, you hot piece of ass. I hope you listen to this. Michael Pitt...

Michael Pitt, Brad Pitt. Yeah. Michael and Brad. Who's who? So my brother came out with me. NBC Bay Area. They put us up in this really sick hotel called Hotel Via. It's directly across from Oracle. Another hot, hot wreck. Where the Giants play. How's the food? Really good. I went to this place called The Stick. They had really good buffalo wings. Sweet wreck.

All right. If you're in San Francisco, head on down to the stick. Hey, and what is it? And that's the bottom line. I was swallowing the stick whole in San Francisco. Okay. And that's the bottom line. Oh, wow. That's the bottom line.

Okay. Yeah, keep going. We're the authorities. We stayed the night at Hotel Via, and we had to be on set or at the NBC Bay Area offices by 7 a.m. So pretty. That's tough for you already. You already pulled that out. Hey, but that didn't mean I didn't come in ready. What does that mean? It's true.

I was still ready to go. I'm like, line it up. If it's shots, if it's shotgunning or whatever. But we pulled up to the offices and everybody was pretty on professional mode. And I'm like, hmm. Yeah. It did seem pretty professional. I mean, they're a professional.

professional news yes yeah but i'm so it wasn't like it wasn't like the morning zoo crew yeah totally it wasn't it wasn't like a local bay area hip-hop radio morning morning station the best the breakfast club what didn't give you a microphone and say go to town exactly this was a proper news station yes and also i think a lot of them understood the weight of it like a lot of people watched that parade a lot of

Yeah. A lot of viral moments came out of it. Like, it was like. Oh, my God. But did we go viral? Did we go viral? It was an important moment in history. I know my back is broken, but did we go viral? That's exactly. That's a little bleak. All right.

I love it. Midlife crisis. So we kind of like pulled up like ready to go, but everybody was, and this was my first parade. I've never gone to a sporting parade. Like it was a fucking magical experience. For being such a Golden State fan, it's crazy to me that you haven't been to like a ton of like,

Parades. Like championship games or any of the parades. Some of that comes up as far as championship games come. Sorry. As far as championship games go. He got caught on come real quick. He said it. He was like, I got to say it again. I'm coming. I'm coming. Come. Come.

Come, come, come, come. That's purely, I don't pull up to games purely because of superstition. Sometimes I just don't, I don't know. I get in my head about being a jinx or whatever. Yeah, you're super stressed out. Oh, you think out of the 20,000 people that are in the stadium, you being there is going to cause them to win or lose? I know it's stupid. Is that real? I know it's stupid. Is that a real thing that goes on in your head, though? Like, for real? Yes. Yes, we talked about how I would like,

But you don't even go enjoy the game because you're afraid that you might make them lose? What is that? Oh my God, let's crack into that skull. I'll lean forward to that. What's going on in your brain? I get routines. You just don't want to change anything. I'm not the only guy who has sports superstitions. No, I'm not saying this is unique. I actually think that this is very universal. I feel like there's a lot of people that have this.

with sports. Well, I mean, I'm a very big Clippers fan and a basketball fan in general. I feel like our fandom is probably about at the same level. But I go to these games. Yeah, but Adam, I hate to say it, but the Clippers have not won the championship. Bully! Bully! Bully!

Adam, so okay, let me ask this question though. Adam, do you ever like not go to the games and have like, fuck, if I would have gone, they would have won? Do you have that type of thing?

thought process ever. No, never. Because I know I'm not playing. I've never played. They never gave me the ball and made me do a thing. Yeah, that seems very grounded in reality. Yeah, I feel like if they gave me the ball and I was supposed to do a thing, then I would go like, I'm the reason we lost the game. I'm subbing myself out. That's on me, fellas. I know I... I thought I could handle it.

My knee blew out when I tried to laterally move either direction. And that's on me. I should have passed it to Kawhi. That's my bad. Hey, and I tried to, but these guys are seven feet tall. Their arms are super long. At that point, I didn't even have a choice to pass it. I just ran it out of bounds. I just gave it to the other team. I just handed it over. Why did you give it to me? Like, why would you? I got scared. I got scared.

That's on me. I don't think I could... Because I do... I have like an absurd... Like, I don't know. I've always been like this. I just think I can do things that I can't. Right. Yeah. Confidence. I just have a confidence. A confidence that is probably not earned all the time. Sometimes it is. Yeah. And sometimes I can do it. And I think it's a healthy dose to have. But I did a celebrity baseball game a few years back. And there's...

We're in Royal Stadium in Kansas City. And I just said I was going to be shortstop. Yeah, you're like, oh, dude. I was like, I'm shortstop. I haven't played baseball since I was like 12 years old. I'm like –

Dude, I suck so bad. I just had, like, balls ricochet off my throat. I was like... I threw once to first base. It landed in the dirt. And then I'm like, oh, never again is it going to land in the dirt. I fucking threw that 25 feet over this guy's head. It landed in the fucking stands. I'm just like...

I sucked so bad. But when I was a kid, I was like, oh, no, I'm pretty fucking good. I could play. But also, I stopped playing when I was in the sixth grade. So I did. Absolutely. Yeah. Absolutely. I did not have that skill set anymore. It fades. It fades, brother. Turns out it fades.

It could also be an instance, because when you're a kid, you don't have a lot of naysayers. I don't know, even if you weren't great at baseball, I don't know when you're going home if your dad's like, man, you fucking sucked. Give up. Let's quit this sport. Who, Dennis? Yeah.

Yeah, this shit's important. That shit's important. He'd call me over and be like, that shit's important. I love that he got the name of the podcast wrong, by the way. That's my favorite part of that. That shit's important. That shit's important. I think some of my fear of attendance is I went to some games and

the Warriors or the Sharks or the A's lost and then I would see in certain mentions where they're like, don't fucking go because you're a fucking jinx. Like my cousin would hit me up. Oh, people would say this to you. Like my cousin would be like, dude. Oh. So it's not. Now I feel for you. It wasn't a lot of people or it's just your cousin who can crawl into your skull. Who's got Justin, cousin Justin. Say it.

Climbed into Blake's head and caused him to not appreciate. I mean, the Golden State Warriors have built a dynasty. Yes. And you've never been there for like the championship ring ceremony. Yes, I have. Oh, you have? Yes.

You didn't catch it. You didn't catch championship. Yes, I have. The second championship, I was there. I was at that one. Oh, you were there when they won the game and you were there that night. That was the one where like we went out partying with the team. We went out partying with them. Yeah, it was a very magical moment. Okay. So, all right. You have been. For whatever reason, I thought you didn't go to the game and met up afterwards.

But you were at that game. Yeah, I was at that game. And that was – and it felt amazing. Like being in the building for that, you can never replace that. So – and that was number two. And so this is number four. So why didn't you go back?

Because somebody said you're a jinx. Fuck that. Them saying that as a jinx. Flip that shit back on them. You say that, that jinxism. No, you're the jinx. Double jinx. Double jinx. No reverse. Double jinx. That's a no reverse double jinx. That wouldn't have jinxed it unless you would have called it a jinx. You put that out in the universe. That's a universal jinx. Hey, guess what? Jinx to you infinity times.

Jinx back. No jinx back. There's a jinx back infinity. Buzz Lightyear. Buzz Lightyear jinx back. Hey, Kyle, you know what? I internalize a lot of stuff, and that's not my first reaction. Oh, my God. Yeah, it's cool. It's cool. I mean, you know, the buck stops here. I just want you to enjoy your sports because you are so stressed out, and I am nervous for your just body when it gets –

through these seasons. Oh, have you seen his body, dude? Yeah, man. It's, it tightens it. Uh, but stress comes out in different ways. You know, stress manifests in different ways for everybody. I am balding. This is a wig. This is not, uh,

This is not something that you deserve. You do not deserve to hold that burden of an entire sports team on your shoulders because somebody said you're a jinx. I don't want that for you. Here's why it bugs me, and it's not Blake's health. Blake is going to outlive us all. Thank you. For sure. I'm the first one dying. He's the human cockroach.

That's nice. Yes, sir. I'm just bummed that he doesn't – they've been on this amazing run. He should be there for every championship. They should like – he should be sitting with the owner in the owner's box. Like he – his kids are sitting like on Blake's lap. He's taking photos like Santa Claus. They're giving him courtside – he should be so plugged into the organization. Well, Adam, you know as well as I do that when it comes to these at least NBA events, no matter how –

you are in the fandom, it still costs a pretty penny to attend these things. Yeah, exactly, Blake. And that is why we got to do more podcasts. I'll do whatever I can to get you more money so you can experience this for your team. I'm running out of gas over here, brother. Jesus. What's up? No, wait, what? Hold on.

No, I ran out of gas one time, man. Oh, yeah. I remember you talked about it on the pod. That's right. Yeah, he ran out of gas. And then we all kind of checked in with his financial situation. We're like, how are you doing? Well, hey, well, if you guys do want to go down that path, if we're really going to use this as something, just me airing shit out, bro. Let's go. Please, dude. There's just bad news, man. Oh, what up? Oh, hang on. What's up? Why don't you cry about it?

What's going on, my friend? Okay, but seriously, what is it? It's a bagel. Hey, shut up. Shut up real quick. Shut up. Okay. Woke got canceled. What? What?

What? The SportsCenter sting killed it. Yeah, man. It fucking sucks. I mean, this will come out probably after people have heard about it, but yep, no season three. I hope so. See, what they do, dude, they never even announced that things could cancel. You probably didn't even need to air that out.

Whatever. What they do is just let it float off into nothing. That's true. Hope people never remember that it was going to come back. Because if you do announce it, then you get a whole bunch of flack. They call me the jinx. Yeah, wait a second. Okay.

Wait a second, they might be on to something, man. Wait, didn't we have... Wasn't there something... Blake, we should talk about this, because this is... Isn't there something, like, you were, like, the kiss of death? Weren't you? I remember us talking about your... Yes. This is huge. Wait, so this actually goes kind of deep for Blake. I thought Blake was just sort of, like, you know...

Trying to find something fun to talk about. Blake Anderson is the jinx. I'm the cooler. The cooler, yeah. What was it? There was multiple last episodes or last seasons of shows? All of my, like, if you pull up my IMDB, besides Workaholics, most of my first gigs, I would go on shows and then they would get canceled that season. Right. Or they would call it quits, like I did.

Hey, you show up one day and you show up to do a bit on Entourage and Jeremy Piven's like, hey, guess what? I'm done. That's it. I'm done. I quit. That's what it seemed like. Yeah, he was the kiss of death. I'm fucking done, dude. I don't know. Fuck it. Send in the clouds. It doesn't seem worth it anymore. I'm working with guys like this. It doesn't seem worth it anymore. Yeah. I went on Big Bang Theory and they were just like, I don't know, millions of dollars? Fuck it, man. Fuck it.

They're paying us like $2 million an episode. I don't know if it's worth it. We got to work with guys like that. Did you see who's out there on stage? Did you see him? He's on stage waiting to act. I'm not going out there. I'm not going out there. I don't care how much they're paying me. Not worth it. So that was one. It was Big Bang Theory. And then I think there was Entourage as well. And I think also House, right? House MD. Parks and Rec. Did they wrap it up?

Yes, well, I mean, I was in the last episode. Okay. That's four. That is a hot run, man. Dude, I know. What else the hell did I bury? And you were in the last episode of Woke. And Workaholics. And Workaholics. You were in the last episode of both of those shows. Dude, I'm the Grim Reaper, baby.

Kiss the death. Coming for you. Coming for you. Yeah, this goes deeper. This all tracks. That being said, if any executive producer or showrunner is a great team player, he'll come in, he'll crush his scenes. I wouldn't read too much into this. Yeah, we're just ribbing him. We're ribbing him. Was I on the last season of Brooklyn Nine-Nine? No.

Were you? Were you on the last season? This is incredible. You were on the last season of what? Sorry, I wasn't shutting the fuck up. Brooklyn Nine-Nine, maybe. Arrested Development, that was kind of a comeback season, and I think they only wanted to do one. Well, right, but you were in the first episode with your friends. Yeah, we were in that, yeah. So that you were protected. You had two others. Yeah, two others. The kiss of death. The kiss of death. Wow.

Wow, Blake, it runs deep. It all tracks. Well, I guess I didn't have to bring up woke being canceled. No, you're right. Don't go have a fun life and go to basketball games that you enjoy. No. Because you're right. You will...

That franchise will go ice cold if you start showing up to games all the time. My bad, brother. I mostly wanted to just highlight that Woke Was Over because I just had such a great time on that show, and I really fell in love with the cast and the director and the writers and everything.

I'll miss them. I'm sad we don't get to do another season. Yeah, I was... I'm actually mourning this loss right now with you, bud. Because I was a fan. Genuine fan. Genuine fan of the show. This year, LeMourne, Team Murph, they're all great and just bumbling around. Vancouver...

with them was was uh i'll never forget it they were their friends and what was the name of that breaded veal that pounded veal spot that you dude just won't shut up about damn i gotta like yelp it budgies i i think i went budgies solo mission i'm going i'm going solo

I remember when we were in Vancouver, we just went to that one nightclub like a few times. I remember being so drunk that they allowed us to stay. What's it called? Orange number five. Yeah.

It closed and then they, like, workers were, like, eating pizza and then we just ate pizza with them. Where the hell was that? It was that nightclub that we would go to. Oh, yeah. Yes. Yeah, that's right. Is that the same? See, I wasn't going with you guys because I was freshly sober and could not handle it at that time. Yeah, absolutely, yes. But is that where you got in? You came to set and you're like, dude, I got into a fight last night or I almost got into a fight. Oh.

Did you throw? Yeah, I remember you telling me something about like you threw a Red Bull can at someone. I don't remember this. Uncovered mystery. I don't remember this. I kind of remember this because I remember clocking it as like, well, I was getting good sleep.

I'm pissed now. Well, it wasn't, I mean, I didn't get drunk the night before, uh, I would say maybe even at all on that movie. Cause we were working every goddamn day. So it wasn't like that was a, that was a weekend endeavor. Yeah. It must've been a weekend. I won't, I won't. Yeah. I bet it was a week. He's a pro. Adam's a pro and I am not the kiss of death. Well, I used to not be, I mean, goddamn, uh,

Oh, this wasn't House Party. Yeah, this wasn't House Party or the first Pitch Perfect movie. Yeah. Yeah. I think that was just like a dude was really being a dick to Adam at the door, and he kind of like...

Some of his rock star at midnight. Yeah, I don't really remember that, but hey, maybe. It's possible. Sorry I brought it up. I was probably thinking of that breaded veal spot I couldn't wait to get to. It's not breaded. It's pounded very flat. It's raw. It's delicious. That reminds me of Ders, the raw meat. Gosh, I miss him. I miss him.

No. Fuck that guy, bro. Yeah, dude. He's dead to us until the next podcast. Okay. You know what we never did? I would love to keep talking about Vancouver. You know what we never did that I've always wanted to do? What is it? Vancouver. What?

I think it's Vancouver Island. I think there's literally a ferry you can take to an island, and there's a bunch of breweries and shit. I've never done that. That's what you do is you go explore. You hit the mountains. You go to Squamish. Well, that's not Vancouver. Oh. Yeah, that's outside of Vancouver. Oh!

You don't say, you gotta come to Southern California and then go to Vegas. Go to Northern California. Go to Vegas. You gotta go to LA and go to San Francisco. It's so cool. Drive to LA, but then just keep going north to Oregon. It is so beautiful. It is so nice, dude. It's really nice. There's trees. There's so many trees in Los Angeles if you go to Oregon. If you keep driving.

If you keep driving from L.A., you can make it to Colorado. If you just keep driving. You can go anywhere in the world. There is so many trees in L.A. if you go to Oregon.

If you just keep it north, this is the way. Yeah, but I do want to... Maybe, Kyle, when you're in the Couve, check out Vancouver Island. It sounds like a fun time. Yeah, yeah, I would love to. Are you heading back to the Couve soon, soon? Yeah, well, that's the plan. I'm up there scouting right now, but, you know, these things are...

They're all so fragile once you get to the go line. It's like you have to have the go line. A lot of people call it the starting line, but some people don't play sports.

call it go line. It works. That's that pickleball mentality. Go position. We still have yet to play pickleball, but I saw that you're posting cool time-lapse videos of tennis courts. I'm owning it. I decided to own it. Turning it into pickleball courts. Where's the go line?

on a pickleball card. It's the line. You have to serve it. There's a couple of lines. The goal line is at the back of the court. It's the furthest one away from the net on either side. Official term, goal line. How close are you to this Vancouver goal line? And that's the last word. Don't even question us. That's the last word. That's the last word. I don't give a fuck!

Pretty close, dude, I guess. Like, you know, pretty close to going. I hope that it happens. I have to, you know, I need to...

I mean, I hate to, you know, we got on Shadows. Yeah, on Shadows. Wait a second. We got a five and six. Don't talk to this about Blake. Thank God you guys aren't in the same room. No jinx, no jinx. Yeah, no jinx here. You can't jinx over Zoom, I don't think. So yeah, we got a five and six on Shadows, so I got to get over there. Oh, you guys got a two-season pickup on Shadows? Yeah. Oh, that must feel nice. Freaking bang, bang, baby. Yeah, I know. That's why I didn't want to rub it in, Blake. I didn't want to do that. So you got two, and I got nine.

none. Maybe I got yours. Looks like I might have got yours. He got two and he got negative. Let me see if they can trade. Maybe we can trade a season for a season. Is that a Hulu program? What's going on? Actually, yes, it is, sir. Oh, motherfucker. You stole our season, you son of a

bitch. Oh, five and six, dude. Come on. Well, that was great. Remember when that started to happen to us with workaholics? That was such like a freeing moment to go like, oh, I do have work for the next couple years. Yeah. And to go just like, oh, we're not going to be, we're not going to run out of gas.

Dude, it is, I mean, you know, for whatever it is, I mean, losing woke is definitely a hit. We have more stuff lined up, but it is a fucked up ass industry. I mean, as rewarding and cool as Hollywood is, you really have to stay in the mindset of stay hungry and like always be looking for the next job because you just don't know. Yes, sir. Yep.

It's really something. It's quite taxing on mental health. I will say so. I'm charging towards the goal line, and I'm not even clear. I know. You never know. It's not even clear, and it happens. You never know. It's wild. You're right at the goal line. I'm like fucking a couple feet from the goal line, bro. A lot of people are like, is that the goal line? It isn't. Hold up. It's the start line. I'm like a few feet.

from the goal line you're basically there dude you bend down to tie your shoes oops oops someone came and took the goal line away yeah they moved the court why'd they move the court you gotta go find it it's fucked up brother hey but this is the lifestyle we choose we're freaking renegades we're nuts we're fucking nuts bro we are still chugging along with the workaholics movie blake so you you will have that to look forward to thank god thank you god

Thank you, God. I'm excited for all of us to get back on set together. I'm really looking forward to it. I think that'll be an absolute blast. Oh, yeah, it's going to be great. It's going to be great. It'll be very fun. God, I'm excited. There's something so fun about just working with your best buds and feeling so free. Like we've all seen each other's dicks. We've seen each other's dicks. Never seen mine.

I feel like I have. Hold up. I think I am. Never gonna. I feel like maybe the hair encased it, so I didn't really get a seat. Oh, you've caught a glance, though? We've seen your pubic mound, and that's what counts. I saw a pubic mound, but I didn't. I see the rat king that we call your dick. Yeah, rat kings are real, dude. They're real. That's how Blake knows they're real.

Let's rat king our dicks together. Dude, that's the movie. That's the third act. We finally cracked it. Yeah, we all fall asleep and we wake up and somehow our dicks have tied each other together. That's a good part. I like the part where everybody falls asleep.

Yeah, we all fall asleep. Oh, that's half the movie. Dude, that's the ticking clock of the movie is who's going to fall asleep first. That's half the movie is us falling asleep. That's riveting. Yeah, that'll move the story forward. Hey, buddy, are you asleep? Are you asleep yet?

No, not yet. No. Hey, get close enough that our dicks can wrap up together. Why? That seems weird. I can't sleep. I'm really cold. I'm really cold. Let's take all of our clothes off and lay on top of each other. Maybe our dicks will wrap up together. It's body heat. Body heat only works if you let the skin touch. Right, right, right. Okay. I'm almost falling asleep. We're so tight and warm now. I've almost fallen asleep. Good night. Can you sing me a song?

Oh, he's out. He's out.

Oh, Adam's out too. It's me. I'm sleeping now. The fucking Workaholics guy's movie fucking sucks, dude. Slow fade to black. Cut to the Rat King is born. Wait, hold on. They woke up and this movie rocks, dude. Their dicks are tied together. Stick with it. Stick with it. You know, just stick with it. You trust these guys. You trust their taste. Stick with it. It's going to pan out.

It's going to be good. Yeah. Oh, man. Is there any tape backs, apologies, giveaways, epic slams? So many, man. Yeah. So many? Yeah, dude. Yes. So many, man. Epic slams. Hey, I would like to – Kyle, I'm sorry, buddy. What's up? I don't know. I don't remember if I've seen your dick. You haven't.

No! I'm sure I have. Your underwear had so many holes in them. And you'd walk around the house with the underwear with the holes all over the front of the dick area. I'm sure I saw your dick. You probably saw my balls. I'm sure I've seen your dick. You saw some chewing gum. I've definitely seen Durza's dick. Not great. I'm pretty sure I've seen Blake's dick. But I'm sorry about saying that your dick looked like the Rat King. It's all good. It's my favorite Turtles character.

I'm glad you liked it. I didn't want to offend. I appreciate that. That's my new thing is not offending. That's a good stance. No offense. That's so good for a comic. No offense.

No offense. No offense. That was one of my favorite Workaholics bits was you just say the meanest shit in the world to a person and then say no offense. Yeah, man. It's just like you're super ugly. No offense. Well, obviously, no offense taken. But you're not conventionally handsome. No offense. No offense. No offense. You should have had braces. No offense taken. Yeah.

You definitely should have had braces. No offense, but you should have had braces. Well, obviously I won't take offense. No offense taken. But you're 23 pounds overweight. No offense. No offense. There's a lot you could do about that. No offense. No offense.

You got to try a little harder. No offense. I'm just saying. I'd like to give a special shout out to the cities in Canada or Providence. Providence. We're not sure. Blake's been twice. I'd like to shout out Edmonton. To one city. No, I'd like to shout out Edmonton. All my Edmonton homies.

And also to Calgary, which I've also been to Calgary. Oh, you have? Yes, and I'll talk about it on the next pod on our hot, hot, hot, hot Canada talk. Well, I'll go ahead and... Canada talk. Hot, hot, hot, hot. You a hoser? Good, Kyle. We would like to recommend some restaurants that we don't know the name of. Yeah, Pounded Veal. That you sort of can explain...

one day. If you're in Edmonton and you want a good hot dog, there's one out there. I'm not going to tell you where it is, but there's one out there. You have to find it. Let me know if you found that really, really good hot dog. You're in Toronto. There is a guy row place. Yup. Yup. And I'm not going to say which one, but there is one for sure. Montreal. Also Montreal. Also best poutine at a little shop called, um, uh,

Hot, hot, hot, hot. Here we go. Hot rack. And that was another episode of This is Important. Dude, I'm dripping sweat. Hear that? Pumpkin.

That's fall calling. And the pumpkin spice latte is back at Starbucks. From that first sweater to late autumn weather, it's all a fall in just one sip. Order ahead on the Starbucks app.
