Welcome to This Is Important, a production of iHeartRadio, the show where we only talk about what's obviously most crucially integral to the fabric of our very nature. Today we talk about... My ass just doesn't stop. The whole Thanksgiving weekend I was basically gagging on cock. It's gonna be Dumper and Merlin and it's gonna be you fucking the wizard.

I don't want to hear this. This was a special moment for me and my family. I don't want to listen to any of this. Here we go. Start your engines. Ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring. Slam-a-dam-a. All right. Oh, please. Oh, please.

What a bad clap. Bad clap? Yeah, that was kind of a bad clap. Yeah, I didn't really connect with my own hands. Happy week after Thanksgiving, guys. Post. Post Thanksgiving. The come down. Wow. Post Malone Thanksgiving. Yes. Happy Post Malone Thanksgiving. Cheers to that. Cheers to that. Here you go. Cheers. How was your guys' Thanksgiving?

Thanksgiving was a big holiday for us as a little friend group. Nucky Grandma! Oh, dude. I used to go up to the Bay Area. Not so much Durr's. Sorry to leave you out here right at the very beginning. Well, you said friend group, and I was like, he didn't say work friend. Okay, that's not me. Yeah, that's true. Yeah, true. True, Durr's my work friend. Durr's has always had us under work friends. Yeah, he's always kept us at bay.

We used to call each other real friends, but Durza never went that far down the rabbit hole with us. Where did you have that? Like on your MySpace top eight, it was like work friends or something? You had to define that? Where did I first hear you say that? I'm like, why am I not on Durza's top eight? And it was like, well, there was work friends. Was that right? He had us segregated like that in social media standings? That's crazy. There was something. I remember it hit me and I'm like, what? Well, you guys know my stance on segregation. Yeah, we do. And that's...

That's a whole nother book of worms. And yeah, you kept us fully segregated as work friends. I said a book of worms. You guys know it. Yeah. MySpace top eight. Yeah. What were we in? Fifth grade, I guess that was. Fifth grade. Come on now. It was only eight, you know? I think they did expand it to 16 though, right? Yeah. Then we got in there. I think they, or you could, could you shrink it down to just four? That's what I wish. I don't know, dude. Okay. You're just trying to Lord. Then one of us is going to feel real bad. Well,

Well, who's out? Well, there's only three. Who's out, Blake? If it's four, isn't it us three? And then another person? There's four. What do you mean? Well, there's four, but you're not in your own top four. You don't put yourself in the top four. Yes, I am. You don't put yourself in. Yes, I am. Well, wait. But Adam, you were saying one of us was going to be out. And I'm like, who? Yeah. That's three. There's three of us. There's three of you. Oh, sure. And then he gets to put...

Oh, my God. Somebody had too much turkey. I'm remaining quiet. Dude, I'm telling you, I drank my brains away this Thanksgiving. Let's hear about it. Yeah. You idiot. You idiot. Did anybody do a...

before and after on the scale or no? I didn't do it before and after. Well, I was on the parade float, so I didn't start drinking early. It was a later. I feel like you messed up there. I felt like when I was done, it felt like you needed a drink after being in the Macy's Day parade. It was a lot. Adam, I woke up early. My kids woke up at about six o'clock and I was like, let's watch this parade. Fire it up. Alive.

Whoa. Live, baby. Did you see? I saw it live. You saw the song, maybe a song and dance man live? Yeah.

Yeah. Oh, yeah, dude. It was live. I felt connected. I was like, look, this is happening right now. I kept explaining to Enzo, this is now. This is happening now. This is so cool. I think I watched a replay because I hit Adam up and he was like, just did it. So then I was like, okay, then it's in two and a half hours. I think that they show... I think it was... Yeah, I think they double dipped for West Coast. They ran it right back or something. That makes sense. Yeah. But it was crazy. It was...

So wait. Yeah. I mean, I had to get Peacock for it. I got Peacock for it. Wait. I had to subscribe to Peacock. I didn't have it yet. So they got me with the parade. Wow. And now you can watch Bumper in Berlin streaming only on Peacock. Yeah. That's right. Only on Peacock. Hi, Bumper.

uh yeah so it's on the parade it was truly a i didn't realize like what a giant thing it was i tried to tell you baby but there was legit millions of people yeah along the parade route like millions it was that's kind of cool yeah they said there was like three million or something and how many times do you perform it because i know obviously you perform it live when you get to that main spot but you stop along the way a few times and do it or what

No, no. It's just so awkward, dude, because it's like, oh, so you're just waving the whole time until the performance like an hour and a half or maybe two hours of just waving like legit. Your shoulders hurt. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yours do. I'm sorry about that. I will fucking bonehead got in the gym the day before did a shoulder workout.

Still got to send it. Well, they got to be able to see you from the street, bro. They got to be able to see you from the street. True, true. Those bro shoulders. But yeah, it's just a lot of waving at people. It felt like I was a hot girl, you know? Just everybody was like, okay.

You mean what you think a hot girl feels like? Yeah, what a hot girl feels like. Because so many people... Everyone's just staring. What you think. No, no. What you think. You're just waving at people. Oh. That's what you think it is. Adam, you're famous, though. You know what it feels like to be looked at a lot. Yeah, well, sure. Looked at a lot, but not... The level of intensity of this... Not millions. A lot of eyeballs. Dude, it was non-stop. And people were losing their minds in a way that I'm like...

This ain't real, Bam. You know? Right. Are you saying people were just like, I fucking you? Just like... Or were they like, I want... Were they like, ow! Well, yeah, and having like full meltdowns. Do you need to go on the record? It was cool to see, to look in the crowd and see like... I would say 90% of people are truly having the greatest time. Like the parade. This is what they live for. They love this fucking parade. It looked awesome on television. And then you would lock eyes with like a dad who's holding like...

two kids and his wife is losing her mind and you can just tell he wants to die inside and those were the guys that would just flash me like a tight butthole sign or just that was white power they were sending me white power signs no they were not and then they would be just like you know my stance on white power signs keep it sleazy and I'd look over and uh

And I would lock eyes with a Workaholics fan, which you could tell that they weren't out there because they were huge fans of the parade. They were out there because now we're family. Yeah, they got that. That have families, that their children love the parade. Did you hear any tight buttholes? Mm-hmm. Oh, yeah. Oh, nice. That's very great. Very good, yes. Much like hot girls here. Some tight buttholes. I heard more...

You listen to the buttholes? I keep it tight and stuff like that. Okay. Where they're trying to, they're PG. Right, right. They're PGing it a little bit. They're wanking. Tight butthole. That's what was super interesting for me is it's like a tradition to watch that parade in my family. Like I grew up watching that parade. Awesome. So for the first time in a long time, I was like, all right, family. The tradition continues. Let's get it going. It's continuing in this house. Yeah. And then like, look, there's Uncle Adam. Yeah.

Yeah, I was a little pissed off at that because, you know, football's on at the same time. And they kept saying, like, up next bumper. And like they they said that really early in the parade. So we stuck on the channel. Had to watch a lot of it. OK.

Hey, Blake, way to step up for your friend and not watch football. Yeah, what the heck is going on? What do you want from him? Does he have a couple devices? Can't you turn on two TVs, man? No, I get it. What game was on that you were jonesing for, Blake? I'm trying to watch the Detroit Lions play, but here's what I'll say. Here's the lesson of it. I heard that game was crazy. It was crazy. Here's the lesson of it. Oh, good. We stuck around on the parade, and guess who we got to see? Who?

Sean Paul, baby. Oh, Mr. Worldwide? No, not Pitbull. No, that's Pitbull. That was a great one. No, Sean Paul's a different man. No, it was Sean Paul. It was like... Is he not? I got the right temperature. They're the same guy. They're the same guy to me. Yes. Yeah. Yes. No, Sean Paul. I think I would take Sean Paul over Pitbull. I hate to say it. Me too. Me too. What did Sean Paul... What's the one... The thing that sucked most...

besides like very tired from waving was right. I didn't get to see the other floats and stuff. It was like, I was just a dude. It sucked. It was a lot of weight. Yeah. Your face like legit hurt from smiling. It was very fun. But at the end I was like, Oh, I could, I'm not going to smile the rest of the day. And then I was just like, Oh dude,

You were frowny, dude. The frowny Thanksgiving. I'm going to be a frowny drunk this afternoon. Charlie Brown. Wait, so if you just had to perform one time, you didn't start cracking beers as soon as you wrapped the song? Relax, dude. Well, no, and we...

We performed at the very end. Oh, you did? And then I started cracking beers, as you would say. But I did. And I was like drinking martinis and whiskey. And a lot of red wine. Can I ask? Can I pull the curtain on this performance and just ask? Okay. Because I know some for sure aren't.

are and I don't know some aren't but what's okay lips lip-syncing what about it oh you went there oh you went about it what about it dog yeah oh you went there what about it Anders I told myself before this I wasn't gonna go there I'm just asking I want to know this hey Ders is that what this podcast is about yeah it's a gotcha question yeah what pulling the thread on on our whole industry is that what this podcast is about who's doing it what do you think and who's not

Is there somebody who's not? You're a fucking disaster, my guy. Oh, you want me to name names? What do you think? No, I just want to know if anybody on your flow. I know Sean Paul wasn't. I know Sean Paul wasn't. Was he? I don't know, dude. I don't know. Because some of it's flagrant. Some of the lip syncing is off. And you're like, yeah. It was cold as fuck. Everybody was wearing gloves and shit. You know, I think 100% of everyone lip syncs.

Right. Yes. Just because they don't want the technical shit to fuck up and whatever. Yes. Now, let me ask you this. Now, just a quick... Yeah. So, do you have a choice? The technical, their voices. Which is crazy. You'd think like the real singers would, but no, they don't even. Yeah. So, you don't... That's crazy. Everyone but you did that. Wow. Everyone but me. Yeah. I was the one guy that... And Flula and Sarah, they lip synced like a lot.

They were lip syncing big time. Not me, though. I was like, keep... Throw him under the bus. Give me a hot mic. Because Flula, someone had to do German for him because that's a whole character he does. He's from Florida. Oh, yeah. Hardcore Tallahassee. That's why his name is Flula. Yeah. Damn. This is how the sausage is made? This is...

want to hear this this was a special moment for me and my family i don't want to listen to any of this sarah highland she's from the lowlands actually it's a whole every everything's a lie yeah she's not from them highlands uh but it was it was uh truly like an event like i got legit starstruck when i saw fucking snoopy dude oh yeah right the the like when i saw some of these balloons i was like legit like

Like how I felt when I saw Kobe Bryant for the first time. Like legit, like, whoa. Dude, I bet. Oh my God, look who that is. But it wasn't Snoopy, it's just a balloon. No, but these are special. I know, dude. I know, but it's so iconic.

These are special. Didn't you hear on one of the Minions ones, it took like 10,000 gallons of paint? That's not easy to cover up a Minions balloon, okay? Dude, that's hard to do, okay? The Minion one, that thing was huge. The Ronald McDonald one, that thing. Wee!

Did you see the horse? Is this another part of the parade? Were they even out there? Was that shit CGI? Now I don't know what the fuck to trust. You're out there lip syncing. Are the balloons really out there? Okay, hot take. It's augmented reality. Adam was there. Adam was there. Were you wearing your meta glasses? Were you in the streets?

Come on now. No, the balloons were there. I will stand by that. How big are they? Even the horse? The horse that was puppeted? There was a puppeted horse. What sucks is... Dude, I didn't get to see a lot of the floats. I only really got to see what was right in front of me and what was right behind me because... Snoopy. I watched the whole damn thing. Because I was all up in line.

and so you're out there on the course for three hours two and a half hours well they don't call it the course they call it the route but dude i sure i've got to coach you up on all parade shit dude it's a bagel oh my god adam i'm so sorry god ders you dumbass dude i can't believe i gotta coach you up on course i had the same course

The course? What do you think he's golfing? Fucking egg on your face, homie. That's a root. Sorry, when they shut down the street, when they shut down the streets for shit I'm doing, that's a course. That's a triathlon course.

Okay. That's true. Hey, that is true. That is true. Okay. That's a running course. But the route... Is it on Fifth Avenue? Yeah, I think we... Is it? I don't really know. We stopped right in front of... Oh, green screen. You don't know. It's augmented reality.

Augmented reality. New York. Did it really happen? Did we land on the moon? We stopped right in front of Macy's and then we did a few wiggles in there. We took a few turns, but hard. I think the whole thing is... Was it cold as fuck?

it looked cold as fuck no it wasn't that cold it looked nice it looked real nice usually it's cold actually yeah it was yeah it was actually pretty nice everybody was rocking like fingerless gloves i thought that was a good look i was that's just in hoping to see that on you but no dude i wish that's such a kyle look i actually i i was like i'd be wearing fingerless gloves straight up if i was out there lip syncing for sure kyle

And I am 100% real when I tell you, because I lie about a lot of this shit that we talk about, but I'm 100% real when I say that I saw someone with fingerless gloves and I was like, fuck, I wish I had scissors because that's a good look. No. Yes. Okay. Wait.

I swear to you, I thought that, dude. I remember being nine or ten years old and seeing fingerless gloves and being like, that's the look. Probably in Ninja Turtles. Probably Sam Rockwell. Casey Jones. Casey Jones, thank you. They had the leather glove with the knuckles in the back and stuff. That's like, you mean biz. And then getting to a certain point in my life where I go, not a great look. If you delivered papers...

You got them. If you delivered papers, yes. You get the dexterity of your fingers. You can pick stuff up. You can look at your phone. You can do swipeys. But gloves have come a far, a long way where you can do all that stuff now. They've come a far way. They've come a far way, donkey. I just don't understand. I mean, you know where I stand on the look, obviously. Yes. Well documented. It's about the only thing I know where you stand on.

I don't understand how you can just discount that look. Like, it's good for something. Yeah. You know what I mean? It's good for a lot. Mountain biking. Yeah, cycling. Paintball. Yes, it's perfect. A lot of cool stuff. And holding a microphone when it's cold out and you're lip syncing. That's exactly right.

That's exactly right. And when you're dancing and shimmying and shaking on a float. Right. Right. Yeah. You're going to want your fingers ready to go. Ready to give the peace sign and the thumbs up and the point. If you have a paper route. I remember wearing those with paper routes. That's what Blake just said. I get that. Because you got to. The Contra Costa Times gave you a gift. Yeah. Every year they would give you a pair of fingerless gloves. What are these words you just said?

sprung together. Was that your local newspaper? Contra Costa. Kyle and I are from Contra Costa County, you know, home of that's where Concord is located. And we delivered the Contra Costa Times. Sure. See, and no one knew that outside of that area. You got to explain a little bit to the listeners. It's okay. They know. It's our county newspaper. Okay. Got it. There you go. R.I.P. You guys are from a place called Contra? Well, yeah. Yeah.

Up, up, down, down. Left, right, left, right, A, B, A, B, start. Yeah. Damn right. It's built here. Spread. Shoot them with the spread. And is that because video games came out of that area? Explain to us why it's Contra. Yes. Well, what does the word Contra mean? That's a great question. Contra-dictory. Contraband. Contradiction. Contraband. Contradiction. See, that's the root word. Contra-curious about what it means? Contra-intuitive. What do you suppose Contra means?

Huh. That's interesting. I bet it means opposition. The best part about this podcast is we don't know. This is important. I bet it means opposition. It means a

Against, opposite, contrasting. Oh my god, opposite, baby. I guessed that. I got that. Interesting. So you guys are from Contra County? Contra Costa. Contra Costa. So opposite Costa. So Costa must be... Costa might mean coast. Dude, Port Costa's up fucking, up by Martinez. So it's the opposite coast? So it's inland. Okay, it's inland. Okay, yeah. Maybe. Sure. Yeah, there's a Port Costa. Yeah. Okay.

All right. Talk about the gloves again, boys. Wait, you're saying, yeah, like we figured it out, but I don't know what the fuck we just said. Wait, you don't know? You don't get it? No, look it, because Contra Costa. Hey, he doesn't get it. No, because Contra Costa, this is my guess, obviously. Contra Costa is opposite Costa. There is a Port Costa. That's by the ocean. Okay, okay, okay, yes. So we're opposite. Okay, this is good. So we're opposite of the coast. So what happened after the parade?

Well, no, we were talking about gloves. That shit's important. But the gloves, the Contra Costa Times gloves came for delivering newspapers, which is a great look for paper boys, fingerless gloves. It really is. The only fingerless glove I'll use is the drinking glove that you can get from the College Club Bar in Madison, Wisconsin. Shout out to the KK. There we go.

Shout out. That shit's important. I feel like more bars should give out drinking gloves because once you put it on, you really feel inspired to really, really tie one on. Absolutely. Yeah, you're going to spend some money. If you got the gloves on, you're like, I'm wearing my gloves. I better put in work, you know? Yeah. And then you're like, well, I have the glove. We got to go back to the same place where I have the glove from. Because it only makes sense to drink at that place with gloves on. Right, right. Do you know where that tradition started? Why they handed out a glove? Because that's the only place I've ever been that has a drinking glove.

I mean, it's me too, but I liked it a lot. And so did you. I remember we all were big fans of the glove. Yeah, it's very cool. It's just the best. They know what they're doing. Yeah, that is the best. Did you have to earn it? I just got famous.

That's fancy. And they didn't give out drinking gloves? They didn't. Yeah, that was where I was kind of like... That's fucked up. That's weird. You need a gold glove. The only way to elevate this place would be to give out cool merch, gold drinking gloves. Yeah. Gold drinking gloves. Exactly. Yeah, precisely. Your gloves, sir. The golden glove, baby. Dude, if you had the golden glove. Was there bar merch? Did they even have merch there? I have a feeling a place like that would have very sick merch. No, there's no merch. This is fancy. There's no merch. Fuck.

It's too fancy for merch, which sucks. Yeah. But do they have matchbooks? Do they have a good matchbook? If it was like... You could have like Gucci gold room merch or something. Right. Obviously, hype it up for the clientele. Right. Like...

Give them what they want. Yes. Yeah. Prada. Like, I went to the Gold Room and all I got was this stupid Gucci shirt. I feel like we're in a meeting for the Palace Hotel right now. We gotta hype it up. Prada. Balenciaga. See, all of these are names. All the names that we could think of. I bet we could list, like, five really fancy... House of Gucci. Gucci. Prada. Prada.

Fendi. Fendi. What was that? What was that? The Crayshon song? Is that right? Gucci, Gucci, Fendi, Fendi, Prada. Gucci, Gucci, Gucci, Gucci, Fendi, Fendi, Prada. Well, I guess it's on there. Crayshon. Fendi. Prada.

John Varvatos. John Varvatos. Is that one? Is that one? I wouldn't say John Varvatos is on the same level as...

as Gucci Blake will wear that when he gets real old yeah Blake is gonna be a John Varvatos guy no I got some Varvatos yeah that's Kyle that's not me dude I got Varvatos no I take it back that's true it's all Kyle I already got Varvatos dude I got some shoes yeah it's like dark tones rock yeah

Older rock dude vibes. Yeah. Dude, there's a metal peace sign on my shoes, and they're so nice. Oh, yeah. That's rock, dude. That's so rock and roll. These are things I don't doubt. I see that for you. Well, I got it for your wedding, Anders. I wore those shoes for the first time to your wedding. Great. Cool. Yeah.

Congrats, Jersey. I appreciate that. I'm pissed now. So that means something. I think I dipped in there and got a belt when I had forgotten my belt to deliver an award at the NHL Awards in Las Vegas. I was like, fuck, I don't have a belt. I've got a belt. So, hey. Go to John. John Barbados actually saved my ass once. I forgot my suit. Really? Your dump truck ass? They saved the dump truck.

Oh, dude. Multiple people tweeted at me or DM'd me or whatever saying bumper more like dumper. Wow. Of course. Dude, they got that nice profile shot of us standing there waving at people as I pass. My ass just doesn't stop. Which, by the way, give it a few weeks and Dumper in Berlin is going to be a porno parody. Oh, yes. Oh,

But John Varvatos, I forgot my suit. I was doing Letterman before he retired. And I slipped in right at the last few months and forgot my suit. Wow. Just like got on the plane, went there and then opened up my suitcase. I was like, oh, I don't have the whole thing I needed to be here.

The whole thing to wear. Can I pull up an LRG t-shirt? I'm just fucking basketball shorts. Right. And John Verveto hooked me up with a suit. I mean, I think I paid for it. I know I paid for it, but... You bought it, right. They sold me one. Sorry.

But I'm sure they tailored it. They tailored it. Quick turnaround. Okay. Well, dude, Varvatos, Varvatos hooked me up with those shoes for Dersen's wedding too. I mean, I paid for them. You paid for them. You gave them money. I paid for them like full price, but they hooked me up, dude. They came in clutch. But they, they probably help you shoehorn. I went to the grocery store. I got hooked up with food.

Dude, it was a total hookup at Ralph's this morning. It was crazy. If you give them this money, they'll hook you up, dude. Dude, it's crazy, dude. $200 worth of hookup because I paid $200. Actually pretty expensive. My new house was hooked up. Dude,

You definitely walk out of there with stuff. Shout out to Jeep for hooking me up with a car, dude. Unreal. Still hooking me up to this day. Giving those monthly hookups. You know what's crazy? Have you guys ever been hooked up by Con Ed? Dude, if you need lights, all you gotta do is send them a check. Next thing you know, you can see around your house at night. They'll hook you up. You'll get hooked right up. AT&T Wireless, they hook it up every month. Big shout out. Thanks for the hookup.

Yeah. Hook me the hell up. And this is not an ad. This is not an ad. No, not at all. We're just appreciating what they're doing. The service is crazy. I know we're in a position of influence. People know who we are. We have TV shows. Right.

We appreciate the hookup no matter what. Thank you for the hookup. Thank you. Thank you, everyone, for hooking us up when we give that money. Thank you. Genuinely. Thank you. Genuinely. We don't take it for granted. What suit did you wear on? Fallon. Because you had a busy day after the parade, wasn't it? Fallon? Oh, yeah. Did Fallon. Dude.

He broke the curse. First one to do it. He was wearing fingerless gloves on the float. Was he? Fallon was wearing fingerless gloves. Yes, he was. I bet he was. That's a good look. It is. Yes, it is. Fallon's always got it on the pulse. And he has got a nice little beard to keep him warm now, too. Really? Yeah, he looks really good on the float. Ready for the winter season.

It was super fun. I took my parents. I took my parents to everything. I took them to the Tonight Show. I did the Today Show. Sick. I brought my mom, and they just awkwardly gave her a mic and made her stand there off to the side, and then they just cut to her. My mom had to try to talk, and she's holding the microphone down here, and I'm like, microphone up, and she brings the microphone up a quarter of an inch, dude. A quarter of an inch. She goes from here to...

And I'm like, I thought you meant a quarter of an inch of her mouth. I'm like, no, no, no, no, no, no. Just a little bit. Just so slightly up. I guess I don't know what the unit of metric for a quarter inches, but it sounds like a long way. Yeah. A quarter inch is pretty big. It's one fourth of an inch. It's pretty. Let me just hang on. Hang on a second. Let me just. Yeah, that's pretty big. It's pretty long. This is three. If you look at your day to go, that's three.

So this is three. A quarter is... You know math? There's 12 quarters in there? There's 12 quarters in three? Roll quarters. What's a quarter? There's 12 quarters in three. That's like a... So she moved it pretty far. Yeah, it's huge. Huge amount. We read her loud and clear. Oh, wow. That's a big, big chunk. Hey, good on ya. And she loved it. The family loved it. It was good seeing them. Alright.

And doing all the weird fun press stuff. Weird wild stuff. Did everybody get home or wherever to link up with family? Did you see the squad or what? We went to Oregon, saw Emma's sister and her family, the cousins. We like to get the kids together. Of course. Make memories. Of course. Saw a bunch of deer. You need that sweet cousin action. How many cousins do the kids have? They got two. Like a gang of them. No, they just have two. Oh, man.

Don't worry. We're working on brothers and sisters making more. Good. There we go. Good, good, good. What yo ass saying? Actively pursuing. All right. We're trying to build the empire. You need a lot of cousins. I had a ton of cousins. It was very fun going to family events because there was always just a bunch of cousins running around. Yeah. Yeah, cousins rock. Emma has like 60 cousins. Yeah. Oh my God. That's a lot. Her mom comes from a monster family.

Family of monsters? A monster family? Like the Munsters or the Addams Family? Yeah, yeah. Well, they can't stop fucking. That's why they're monsters. It's a universal universe of monsters. Right. Universal property. It's some IP. Monster family. No, her mom comes from a Brady Bunch where they had five daughters already. And then... Another show reference. And then... Go ahead. Go ahead. Yeah, I feel like it's a cultural touchstone. Go ahead.

And then remarried into a family of eight kids. So there were five and eight all together. Jesus. Just eating boxes of cereal, gallons of milk. A lot of rice. Rice-a-roni for days. They're getting hooked up by Kellogg's. My God. Yeah. I mean, dude. Your family probably got hooked up by Captain Crunch. Costco.

Costco hooked them up. Between 13 kids, they make a lot of cousins, man. I bet. Damn. Oh, yeah, dude. I had four cousins. And what about you guys? Did you guys go back to the Bay Area? Contra Costa County. Did you guys go back to the opposite of the coast? The opposite coast. Contra Costa. Super dope. Oh, dude. Did you guys still get together and do a Friendsgiving after the families do a...

regular giving or that stops at this point we didn't i'm really really butthurt about that i hate that there is no friends giving in my life well i feel like we're probably getting to the age where like the basically wives are going you can't leave the family to go hang out to get drunk with your friends gonna come around again it's a real reality check at this point like none of the homies stay up late at this point all like like

Especially being in Concord or Walnut Creek, everything shuts down like 10 o'clock. It's a wrap, dude. Hey, Blake, you know who to call. You want to pull up? You want to pull up to Concord? You know who to call. Yeah, come on up to the bay, dude. Hop on a jet suite. Get up here, dude. That'd be sick. That'd be sick. No, we didn't do any Thanksgiving festivities together this year, Blake. That was kind of sad. All we did was play. Yeah, that is sad. None of your people... Wait, none of your friends who have kids still...

throw down ever? Dude, like 0%. We didn't have nothing. Well, maybe not on Thanksgiving. I mean, maybe not. I mean, I know I did, but I don't have children. I understand that it's hard to sneak out, not sneak out, but just to be like, all right, I'm going to dip out, honey, you stay here. But like on the next day or like if you're there for a long weekend to be like, all right, I'm going to go do something with my guys. We could have if we were good at organizing, but that's kind of the problem. Did you guys see each other?

We did. We saw each other. Randomly at the house, getting hooked up. We played pickleball. We played a little pickle. We got some pickle in. Yes, sir. Oh, boy. Pickleball. Should we tell them? Smokehead. Yeah, dude. Yeah. Blake. Blake.

So now Kyle is down in the L.A. area a lot nowadays, but you guys didn't see each other down there. You guys waited to play pickleball until you're in the Bay Area. Is this better? No, no, no. We're playing a lot, dude. Blake's out there. You and Blake play pickleball more than one time. We've played pickleball probably 20 times together, yeah. Yeah, we play a lot. In Burbank, right? Is that right? TK hit me up. He's like, when are you coming to Burbank? Yeah.

Come out, bro. Yeah, Durz. I mean, that's the news. That's the headline. I saw a picture of you with a wooden paddle in your hand with some dope-ass shorts on. I need to know what those were. Those are John Barbados. So am I, at this point, I'm the only one who hasn't pickleballed. Well, yeah, because your testicles are ruptured.

I can't believe I did it, but I didn't want to be that guy. So the family, they all had pickleball stuff up there and like everyone's pickleballing where they lived. Well, that's where it was created, right? That was in Oregon. Yeah. In Oregon. Yeah. Okay, cool. So then I went out and they were like, here's a paddle. I go, what do I do with this? And I fucking served him up. And then you just won. You just won, huh?

No, it was okay. But it was fun. I had a good time. There we go. The shorts. The shorts are mountain hardware, Kyle. Okay. I love this for Derriff's because he was probably the most starch. Stark? Stark? No, he's starch. Staunch? Staunch? Staunch. Goodbye. I don't know. The one guy who didn't want to fucking play the game. You're a fucking disaster, Michael.

I am. You start a disaster. You're right. I just, I didn't want to jump on the, I want it to be organic. I didn't want to have to be like, all right, I got to go jump into pickleball. Everyone was doing it. And I was like, this is it. This is when I do it. Yeah. It seemed right. Dang. I'm jealous. I, I,

want to play fun you should it's a good time here's what i realized no matter how hard you hit that ball it doesn't matter yeah well that's the fun of the game because you get to hit it as hard as you want it's a finesse game you can't power because i'd be like i can't wham because i played a little bit of tennis growing up so i could summon that yeah you can the biggest adjustment was that the paddle wasn't as long as a tennis racket yeah oh

And you're a lefty too, huh? Yeah. Yep. No, that's big. That's big. No, that's different. That's big. That's huge. Not a lot of lefties out there. Wait, why? Anyway, so hitting a backhand, there were a few times where I was like, oh, the paddle's not as long as a racket, so I just would whiff. Ah. Right. You know. Ah.

See, I don't have any tennis in my background, so I'm like ping pong paddle only. So it's actually easier than a ping pong paddle for me, except I have to run my ass over to the ball. Yeah, the running is where Kyle gets rocked. But if I'm rocketing, when you fucking just blast a forehand, it doesn't matter.

People would just be like, "Cook, cook." And you're like, "Oh, I don't need to kill myself." - Did you only play doubles? You played doubles, right? - I played doubles and then I played me against two people. - Okay. - Oh, okay, so you did two on one. That's a fun one. - So you did enjoy it? - Yeah, oh yeah, for sure. - Didn't get hurt. - Does it deserve the hype?

Sure. Okay. Yeah, I mean, it's... All right. It deserves a high. Give me a hell yeah! Look, it's not cosmic bowling. I'll say that. I stand by that. Yeah, fuck that. You're damn right it's not. No. It better not be. But yeah, it's a good time. It's just easy. You can just stand there and go...

It's not easy. It's not easy. No, but it is. Like I watch pros. Look, it's like acting. Okay. Anybody can do it. But then you, when you see somebody really good at it, you're like, well, that's different. That's what me and Blake, that's the level Blake and I are playing at. It's like semi-pro. We're like up there, you know, but semi-pro isn't, it's no different from just regular person. The elite is the only recognizable difference. It goes three, then four, then five, and then five plus, and then pro. Those are your ratings. Sure.

And most people start around, if you're good, you start around 3, 3.5 or something like that. Okay. None of that makes any sense. I'm probably 5 plus, though. No, you're not. I would stomp you, Durs. Wow, what was that little laugh, Kyle? Did you say stomp? He said, uh-huh. What? Uh-huh.

What are the rules about the kitchen? Can you be in the kitchen? I don't want this to be a pickleball episode. No, no one did. It's just a Thanksgiving episode. I'm team pickleball. Kyle is burying the headline a little bit. Kyle, do you want to let them know the news? What's the headline, Blake? What? What?

What news? Okay, yeah, here's the news. Blake fucking smoked my ass in a game of war. And him and I have not talked about it until right now. We have not talked about it until now, and I've been thinking about it since he walked off the court. That's how you know it was real. That's what's up, baby. Well, and is that... No, didn't we talk about this? Like, obviously...

Like any of us could beat you. And I'm not, I will say Ders and myself because I don't know. My groin has been injured. I feel like I'm limping around the court. I don't got, I can't move side to side that quickly. It was a little awkward to hear him say he would stomp me. And then now to hear this. Ders.

And Blake, who are better athletes than you currently with the way their bodies are currently shaped. Correct. The tide would turn quickly. We talked about that, how like you would win the first few games, but then they're at superior athleticism.

I don't even think it's games. I think it's time on the courts because it's already happening with Blake on the singles level, like I'm saying. He did get on a run and he got my ass straight up. I have got him before. I just haven't bragged about it because I've played a lot. Maybe not one-on-one. So you can't brag.

But doubles is a different game than ones as well. It's a totally different game. Right. It's a different game. You have to move. That's a completely different strategy, right? Ones you have to have gas. I have said this to you. I don't have gas. Kyle, what are you talking about? No one cares, dude. Yeah. It doesn't matter. What do you mean? What do you mean? You're like doubles is okay. Okay.

Who's talking about doubles? No one's talking about doubles. What would you like to know? What was your question? You said you would stomp me. Is that in doubles? No. Blake beat you in what? Currently? No, that he would stomp you in hacky sack. He's talking about something completely different. You would beat me in doubles with somebody else because I don't know how good the other person is. No, if I played you now, I would beat you. I would beat you for weeks. You're right. You would probably beat me. I've played one...

I played four games. Yeah, so what I said isn't like... And Kyle, it's your life. And if you gave me two weeks of playing every day, I'd have you fucking gagging on my dick by the end of the game, Playboy. You're a fucking disaster, my guy.

I love it. Whoa, Nate. This ain't Colbert CBS pickleball talk. That's a ball. That's a football. Now you wonder why we're not invited to fucking Colbert celebrity pickleball because it turns out you're telling people you're going to make a pickleball X-rated pickleball. Taking it to level fucking 11, bro. And I respect that. I respect that. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

Jesus

Have fun.

Did you guys do a classic turkey or what did we do for Thanksgiving? Oh, you want to talk meats? Oh, man. Classic turkey. We went classic turkey? Classic turkey. You know, the kind of turkey that gags on your dick. Gobble. Let me gobble. We had a real gobbler, baby. Let me gobble. Let me gobble. What did you guys gobble? Because I'm still, I, we used to do a, where we would measure in before the beginning of the day.

And then at the end of the day, after we've done like three or four full Thanksgiving meals and weigh. And I think one year I gained like 10 or 11 pounds. And whale. Perfect. Not 10 or 11. Yeah, it was. I think it was five or six. No, no, no. No, no. Wait, what'd you say? You gained seven? No, I gained like 10 or 11 pounds. I thought. Jesus. I was with you, Kyle, at your house when we went through the waves. Yeah, in your bra. Oh, oh, this is back. Yeah. Yeah.

By the way, Kyle, this dude was stealing silverware from your parents' house. And you were like, get on the scale. He's like, I'm good. Wow, you're getting 10 pounds? Cool. No, you would see it in my body. My body would change. And I feel like it kind of changed this week, too. Your boobs are huge. Pretty wild. But the batteries are currently out at the scale in my house here. Hey, it's better that way, man. It's better that way. It's better to not know. I know. At this point, I'm like, I don't want to see it.

I did a rough week going into Thanksgiving. I was just crushing crafty on set and eating like nice meals, ready to get out of Vancouver. Your boobs are huge. My last meals. And then I just pounded some Thanksgiving, just gagged on the cock. Gotcha.

Catchphrase is just gagging on the cock. Yeah, that just means like to the extreme

It just means like two extremes. I'm going to use that. You didn't know that? That Gag Gag 2000? I feel hella better now because I thought I felt that shit through the pod, but that's just a nice thing you say to people now. It's all good. It's just slang. Hey, Blake, did you gag on the cock of Thanksgiving dinner? Yeah, my mom's dinner was gagging on the cock. Seeing my friends from high school, I was gagging on the cock. It was...

The whole Thanksgiving weekend I was basically gagging on cock. Based on the fact that you guys used to hang and just get butt naked and drink together...

I don't doubt it. Nucky grandma! It was cock gagging, man. It was super cock gagging. I'm not doubting you. I gagged on a cock on some salmon. Some salmon's cock. Yeah, that was good yesterday. You guys had salmon. Okay, because you're not eating... You don't eat turkey even, right? I don't eat turkey. No, I don't eat turkey. So you don't eat... I thought you were full vegetarian, like you didn't eat meat. Is fish...

That's allowed? No, he went pesky. No, remember? He went the pesk. I'm a pesky gentleman. Oh, okay. A pesky bugger. A pesky gentleman. Either you have diarrhea or you don't. And why did you choose fish? What is the purpose of pescatarianism? You know what? It was at your bachelor party when we went out and I just was like, I just wanted to have something. Oh, that bachelor party gagged cock, dude. That was a gagging ass.

We were gagging cock at that batch party. I was hungry and I just was like, I like fish, so I'm going to go back to fish. And then...

There you have it. It's as easy as that. I remember that. It's really easy. I remember it being kind of a big thing, and then we just got too drunk to really signify, to show it the revenants it deserves. This was at the place with the Jaeger fountain? Yes. Yes, this was at the Jaeger fountain. I remember Kyle tried to stop the party and be like, hey guys, I'm over here eating fish. If I could get everybody to look over here. I was like, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding.

Ding, ding, ding. Hello? I would like to make an announcement. We're just trying to gag Cock on the Jaeger fountain. And I'm pretty sure we did. Pretty, pretty, pretty. There's picture evidence. We were gagging Cock the whole weekend. Loved it.

Thanksgiving truly is one of my favorite holidays though Everyone's just No one's exhausted from the holiday season yet You know what I mean It's the kick off where everyone's like Hell yeah I'm going to eat food I'm going to be around family and friends We're going to drink We're going to have a great time Football's on You haven't spent all your money on gifts yet

yeah right had that stress yeah exactly and then and then by the time you get to like new year's eve you're like absolutely fuck party i don't give a shit right get away from me for sure fuck this shit like my head doesn't fit through shirts now i'm morbidly obese i had to go back to my v-necks bro yeah

I had to loosen the necks of my shirt. I'm such a fat fuck. Dust off my V-necks, dude. Is that your favorite? Is Thanksgiving, Adam, your favorite holiday?

Is it God cocked? I love Christmas. I love Christmas shit around the house. I like that. He is risen. But I do love the fact that Christ is risen. Or was that Easter? No, he was born. He was born, right? Yes, he was born. Damn, son. I'm just talking about his Easter. He was born in Bethlehem. That's right. That's right. Wise men. Incense. Myrrh. Gold. Allegedly.

Allegedly. Yeah, three wise men. You get really down with the three wise men. Three wise men and shit. Merkel. No, but I think Thanksgiving, I always have such a great time. Yeah, Thanksgiving's great. Oh, yeah. So wait, so Christmas is your favorite, but Thanksgiving is- But I think I have the best time at Thanksgiving. Right. But you still like Christmas more? Well, it's the Christian-

Yes, of course. This is Adam's way of not choosing. This is his way of not choosing. He's like, I like this one for this. I guess I technically I like Thanksgiving more, but part of my reason of liking Thanksgiving is as soon as Thanksgiving happens, then it's the Christmas season.

Yeah, Christmas is too close. And Mariah Carey lets us know. Oh, yeah, she does. She was out there. She did. My sister saw it. She ended the parade. Yes, she did. And I didn't get to see it because I was taken away. Blackout. But I was blackout by that point.

But my sister saw Mariah Carey and started to cry. Yeah, I get that. Because she's like the perfect generation that just Mariah Carey was a fucking home run for her. Yeah, she's a heartbreaker. Fucking best. Hey, points. Blake and Kyle, favorite holiday? Of the holiday season? Is that? It's Halloween. Of all holidays. Of all holidays. Okay.

All right. Mine's Thanksgiving for sure. I love Thanksgiving. I don't know, but also 4th of July is always such a banger. That's such a great. You're speaking my language. Great holiday. It's fun, but Halloween is also super sick. I think in the last couple of years, 4th of July is my new favorite holiday. I like the food. I like the weather. I like that you got a cool food. Like just hot dogs and chips? Yeah, grilling. Just like grill, like burgers and hot dogs and chips. And like, maybe there's a potato salad. I don't know. Dude, I love chips too. I don't know.

I love potato salad. Parades. Like, the 4th of July parade is a banger. Yep. I think it's my favorite. I mean, this is tough. The Thanksgiving parade's pretty sick. There's only one, though. Kyle's a huge Valentine's Day fan, isn't he? No, it's like the whole year. I mean, dude, Thanksgiving's pretty tight because you are just grubbing with your family and it's always tradition. It's sick. It's nice. It's nice. I don't know what beats it. I feel like there's too much formality around Thanksgiving. Like...

Fourth of July is kind of fast and loose. Come by. Pop over if you want. We're grilling. It's a little more. It's also political. It's also a little political, isn't it? Why? Well, we're celebrating the USA. It's a little political. Yep. It can dip into that spot. Some people politicize it. Who? You? Ugh.

We all live here. It's got blemishes, but we're all here now. And also, if you're talking about like... Thanksgiving's a little political. Yeah, Thanksgiving. Yeah, Thanksgiving's more political. Where it's like... Yeah, and we sat down at a table with the...

and had a dinner. It's like, no, that's not exactly how it went down. That ain't it. It's science. Also, Thanksgiving is like where you'll get in like a weird fight with your uncle about some shit that you're like... With the grandma! They gave us corn. Or your weird cousin that has just fallen down a conspiracy theory hole and you're like, man...

Shut up. Right. Your uncle would just be like, well, Pierce Morgan said. And you go, all right. No, no. I got TV too. Okay. Yeah. My uncle's like, you know, I was listening to the pod. I heard you guys sending you gaggy charge calls. That's right. That's right. Yes. Yes. That's right. Oh, you want to get political? You trying to get political right now? You trying to politicize that? Yeah. Quit trying to politicize that.

Yeah. Everything's political. I don't know, man. Thanksgiving is so good. Did you say everything's political? Yeah, I did say that. It does feel like everything's political. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. So true. I'm not an advocate for that at all. I think it sucks. I think it's the worst. I think we should just be fucking chilling and that's it. Yeah, we should just be absent-minded, not care. Let's just be humans only.

Or are we dancers? Thank you. Thank you. You were hitting it on the head there. Absent-minded, don't care. Just keep powering through. Entertain. That's right. I mean, all my most fun friends have no idea what's going on in the world. Ever. It's way better that way. And they're like, yeah, there was a march yesterday. And you're like, what?

Do you know about that? It's called Parade. I was busy watching whatever. No, no, no, no. It was a march and they'll be like, the fucking parade came by. And you're like, that was a human rights march. Oh, it was fucking fun. Oh shit, it was fucking tight, dude. I don't know. I was passing out some Budweiser's and people seemed to take them. You go, all right, well, fuck, yeah.

Can't be wrong. Well, those are the 4th of July people, okay? No doubt. And hopefully they pass out Ashlyn Hard Seltzers. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. I need a hard out. Or they're passing out Malibu Splash Passion Fruit and Coconut. Oh, yuck, dude. Actually, maybe that's good. Available at your local CVS if you're looking for a hookup at Cost Money. That's a rum seltzer? Yeah. That sounds like HeadacheCity.com. It's pretty sweet.

Not gonna lie. But if you like sweet... Yeah, but, dude, a rum seltzer I might get on. That sounds kind of good, dude. I could get into that. I had a new seltzer at Thanksgiving. You know Hard Rock is making a seltzer now. Dude, I saw somebody. I pulled up with Hard Rock, dude. Dude, fuck yes. That shit is... Yes, queen. Hard Rock, get at the pod. Get at us. It's a headache city. A lot of seltzers besides Ashland give me headaches, so there's that.

Is there a gin seltzer out there? Is that something? I'm sure. If we're down to rum, there has to be gin. There has to be a gin, right? There has to be everything. They've now done canned everything.

Because it ain't Kevin.

No, Kevin's the hot one. No, Kevin's the shredder. I don't think you're... I think you might have got them mixed up, dude. I might not know my guys. Kevin is the shredder. He plays guitar. He rocks. I think Nick is known as the hot one. Over Joe?

Joe is the hot one. Joe is hot AF. And then the other one's also there. No, Kevin rips, dude. Are they the hottest brothers? Well, sure, he rips and shreds, Blake, but we're talking about hotness, okay? They can rip and shred all day. His solos are hot. His shredability is fucking wild.

We're talking about where a 14 year old girl would rank that. Right. Who's, well, if you're talking 14 year old girl, I'm talking about grown women. I'm talking about grown men. Oh, okay. You're talking grown men. Who's cock gagging? I think Joe is the most cock. I want to cock. Is that how you use it? Please explain to me. Okay. Yeah. Um,

I was just going to talk about how hot I thought Nick Jonas was or wasn't, but go ahead. Nick's cute. My early apology is to Anders for saying I would fucking whoop your ass at pickleball. Dude, that was aggressive and it fucking came back aggressive. I like it. It backfired a little bit, but I'm excited to see this match. I'm more excited not to win or anything, but just to play.

Okay. Oh, my God. I'm not even guarantee. I don't even think I'll beat you. But when it happens, it'll just be a thing. And when you beat me. A dream of mine. It'll be that, too. That's right. That's right. And one day I will play. No, Kyle, I beat your ass and it is on wax. We are out here. I don't give a fuck.

Blake, you beat me once. You beat me once, and I had in my head issues that I was stuck on. Bro, you've got issues for life, brother. Those ain't going away. I was pretty cold. It was at the end of the day. I had in my head issues.

It was at the end of the day. We had already played two and a half hours. I was pretty cold. I also did. It was cold for me. And my shoes were a little loose. Okay. What's your footwear? What are you playing in? What's your footwear? I play in.

All right, Blake, any take backs, apologies? Shut up, bitch. I'll give a special shout out to the Conquered Tap House. Yeah. Shout out.

A little shart out to Concord Tap House. He said shart out. I had a really great night with Teddy, friend of the pod. Got to get some chicken wings, delicious food. If you're out in Concord or the Contra Costa area, check out the Concord Tap House. It's a great spot to get a cold brew. I like that. And watch a Warriors game or Sacramento Kings. Warriors, girl. Warriors. Did you teach him to say Warriors? Um...

Let me do a take back. I'll do a take back. I gave pickleball a lot of guff. I dragged my feet on it as far as it being fun or a legitimate sport. And I did it. And I had a good time. And you think it is a legitimate sport now? I had fun. It's a good time. Okay. All right. Fair enough. If you play professional pickleball, congratulations. You

You weren't good at anything else. You lose. And now you do this. Do you think like it's at the same level of like a foosball or darts? It's like a, just a kind of a leisure game. Yes. 100%. Not, not a real sport. Because I was watching it the other night and Emma walked in and she goes, are these people professional? And I was like, yeah, she goes, and this is it. This is the thing. And I was like, yeah, well, okay, let's get on the court though.

Yeah, I know. I hear you. I'm not saying it's easy to become a professional. What I'm saying is that... Pizza, pizza. What?

Say it. Either you have diarrhea or you don't. Thank you. Thank you. Fair enough. And I'd like to take back earlier I... What'd you say? What'd your ass say? Yeah. Earlier I... It's okay. Open up. Sort of... What'd your ass say? Stumbled when I was talking. You guys kind of laid in on me. Yeah, what'd you say? Yeah, admittedly...

I'm just an idiot sometimes and I appreciate you guys and thank you for holding me accountable every time I misspeak. Of course. For what? What part? I don't know. I said some shit earlier. I can't remember what the fuck I said, but you guys kind of went in on me. You said like scrunch. Oh yeah, that? Oh yeah. Oh, it was staunch. Staunch. Staunch. Yeah, yeah. You said stark. Stark. And then I said stark. No! You know what, man? You know.

You were in a parade. It's okay. Yeah, dude. It doesn't matter. Like, if you don't know that word, if you don't know that word, but you can perform in a parade, you're fine. Yeah, I guess. Yeah, I guess it's fine. Also, guys, I'd like to come in here at the end of the episode and say that I'm thankful for you. Okay? All three of you guys. Oh, wow.

Being a wonderful week, I'm thankful we've been doing this for a fucking like two years now. I'm thankful for the pod. No, no, no. Wait, wait, wait. We have not been doing this for two years.
