100: The Hunk is Drunk
01:06:40 Share

And this episode is brought to you by Hulu.

We are back! Man. 100. This is an episode. This is the official. Listen, I would say, look, you don't have to be on our Patreon, that's okay. I agree. Well, this is its own celebration. But if you want to join us for another live stream, I would highly recommend it.

There was a lot going on on the 100. There was a lot going on. Kevin, what do you think? Where are you at? Good morning, guys. Happy 100, everyone. Kevin. Kevin got drunk. Again, Kevin is the best for many reasons, but just what a wild card. But I will say, Kevin, you did keep it together. You produced a great show. It was really fun. He did. However, he also had a couple moments.

I'll say it. I mean, I guess we can't spoil it, but there are a couple hot Mike Bartelt's. I'm a shark. I'm a shark. And you know the other one? Where he names the food. Yes, he just says the snack name. Yeah, pretty good. But I'm a shark. I mean, Kevin drank four old fashions. Yeah, fast. Like they were glasses of water and he just came back from a hike.

But also for anybody who's not interested in the Patreon, if you are interested, the whole thing is up there. This is cut up. There's some things from it. We took another call from another. But also check out on YouTube Kevin's new studio. Yes. Yeah, it really is. He put a lot of great work and I think it is a 10 out of 10 total win. Felt really fun to be in. It felt really special. Looks great.

And then after the show, we hung out for a while. And then, Jake, you and I were like, let's get one more beer. Well, first, we did the Kevin. We smoked cigars in his backyard. We smoked a cigar with Kevin. Talked about the show. Talked about the Patreon. Talked about all the comments. The amount of people commenting was really fun. It was nice to kind of debrief. It really was. It felt pretty cool. It was a great night. And we're going to do more stuff like that. So, you know, it's... But yeah, if you're into that, join our Patreon. But then, so we hung out in Kevin's yard for a while.

And then Kevin went to bed and Jake, you were like, should we do one? And we were like, all right, let's do one more. So we were walking. We were looking to push. The old guys were looking to push. The young guy fell asleep. Yes. And so we walked. It reminded us of when we did this in Detroit similarly, but we walked looking for a bar. We were in Detroit doing Harold and Kumar because you and Evan were writers on that.

Well, completely uncredited. Nobody knows that, but I'm willing to take it. But you wrote a ton on it. We basically rewrote the whole movie, and nobody paid us or gave us credit. Anyway, so not a big deal. Hollywood. Yeah, no, a good friend of ours made sure we had no credit. And so one night, we went just going looking for a beer, and we were like, we'll find something. And we walked. You, Evan, and I, we walked so far. Yes. Yes.

I'm looking for him. But then last night you and I were like, let's go. We'll go to this bar. We were kind of close to your hood. Yeah. And we made a wrong turn. How far do you think we actually walked? I think we walked probably two and a half miles. I think we probably walked closer to three and a half. Well, because we got to talking. After you left? After we left, we walked about three miles. We just started going and we were just... Talking and walking and assuming we were going to find somewhere. And then at one point, Jake just goes...

I don't know where the hell we are. Yeah. I saw a sign that said San Marino something. I was like, we've walked into a whole new community here, my guy. We left California. But we have really quickly, I want to say from all of us, thank you to everybody who has stuck with us for 100. The three of us afterwards when we were debriefing,

We were honestly just full with a bunch of like, man, we can't believe we've done 100. Year one is done. We're now getting ready for year two. And it just feels, we feel really lucky and we feel really glad we're doing all this as a big community. And we appreciate you guys. Yeah, well put. So without further ado.

Caller who is not the special guest, the main caller, can you please... How much have you been drinking, young man? We don't need to get into my details. I think what happened was this. He got stressed. So stressed that he probably popped a couple white claws early. Is that true?

I know. I started drinking when you guys saw. I haven't really eaten, though. He hasn't eaten, and he's also the release of having it up and running. I think it's the release of stress. It's like he prepared a huge dinner, and now people are eating. Yeah, that's right. All right, caller, can you introduce yourself, please? Also, sorry, Mom. We're getting too wild. Yeah, she knows it. She hates this. She's turned it off. It's okay. Name, please.

I think that's me. I'm Carly. I'm 31. Where are you calling from? I'm calling from New York, but I'm from Vancouver, which I mentioned because it's relevant to my call. Great. So Carly, take over.

All right, sure. So Vancouver, assuming you've been there, Hollywood North. Beautiful place, but it had a milder climate when I was growing up. And of course, climate change has ruined that. So now it gets so hot in the summer that air conditioning is a necessity where it used to be a luxury.

So my problem is with my 75-year-old dad who lives there by himself in an old house that gets really, really hot. He did buy a couple of portable air conditioning units for me to use when I visit. It's like, son of a bitch won't turn it on. Exactly. You already know. I am that guy. He's alone most of the time. He just cooks in his own juice. Yeah, extreme heat is really dangerous for seniors. Yeah.

And it got so bad when I was visiting last year that he had to take me to the hospital for heat stroke. You got heat stroke in his house? Yes. Jesus. Yeah, it's too much. It's honestly really stressful. Yeah, I understand. I fully understand. So what's dad's first name? What are we calling him?

His name is Terry. Terry. So Terry, he didn't grow up with that AC. He's a Canadian boy up in Canada. He doesn't need an AC. But the world has changed. But Terry hasn't changed with the world. He likes to soak in his own juice. He doesn't even think. He's like, I'm not turning it on. I'm not spending money for this shit. Is it about the money or is it about principle, you think, Carrie? It's very much not about the money. And I think it's a pride thing, which I don't understand, but I'm hopeful that you do. I do.

I do. It doesn't make any sense to me because if you're hot, wouldn't you want to be cold? Weird lines in the sand, you got to live by them. Wow. Without weird lines, what are we doing? I guess, all right, so why don't you just say your exact question? How do I get my dad to turn the AC on? Yeah. How do I convince my ridiculous father to turn on his air conditioning so I don't need to stress out about him after that? What kind of air conditioner does he have? He has two portable units. They're large-ish. Are you thinking what I'm thinking? No. No.

I'll tell you what I just started thinking there, Carrie. And this is a really weird run a mile to go block. They've got these nest ACs that are controlled via Wi-Fi. Wow. You can set up a nest in his house and control his Wi-Fi from your house and never tell him.

Wait, you can just start. So nest. So there's a nest thing that I have. And that is I could turn the AC in my house on right now. Your central air. Yes. Okay. And I could cool it down. I could do whatever. I have access to it through an app. So you can control his AC from your phone. He doesn't have AC. He does. He just has portable things.

Is that right? He doesn't have like central air. I understand. So he just has like one little box in a window. Is that right? Does he, is it even that, or are they like little weird portable ones? They're not little. They're, you know, they're a decent size. Window units? And he's got big rooms, but no, they're like, I don't know, on wheels. The little R2D2 guys? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I know those things. They don't really do much. But it'll help cool it down. Do more than nothing. Carly, it is bad. Yeah.

Okay. So let me ask you this. Let's say money is not an issue. What do you want? You want him to have central air? Or just turn it on. I want him to turn it on. Okay. Someone said, Jake, having this kind of technology knowledge is throwing us off. Fair. Fair. This feels like a classic time, Gareth, for a video that we could send the audio to dad. So,

Right. And I don't really know what we do a fake pod. We do a fake podcast about older men. Yes. In climates that have changed and the importance of colder air for longevity. And why don't we have your method? If only we had a caller who had experience with older men in warm climate. What are you talking about? Hello. Is anyone else on the call? I'm going to think.

Yeah, I'm going to think that's my time here. Hey, guys, this is Connor. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Connor, you don't even need... When were we talking about him? We were talking about Connor the other day. A lot. Okay, Connor, I don't know. Carly, do you know who Connor is? I know that he's a legend. Okay, so Connor ends up living in an Airbnb with senior citizens all the time.

And he's very good at picking sides, playing the game, figuring out how to crack the code of the elder mind. Just excellence. Well, why don't we? Why don't we let Connor talk? Okay. Connor, what are you thinking? You got anything? Connor, have you heard the setup on this? Yeah.

Yep, I've been listening to this setup here. All right, what do you think? Right now I picture Conor cracking his knuckles in a desk chair with his feet up, and he just put his arms behind his head.

I've had that headshot when I was going commercials. I wish I didn't. It's awful news. Connor, what's up, my man? What do we do here? Well, your logic is sound with this nest thing and it could work. But as you said before, people are going to have a line in the sand and a guy 75 years old, that lines in the sand and you need to show them that that line, that line is a wrong line. That's right. So what I'm saying here is it could, it could be far, but,

You might have to smoke them out here. There's got to be a limit where heat is too hot. No, Connor. Jesus Christ, Connor. Hold on. I think you're wrong, bud. I think... Wait, just to be clear, Connor, your pitch is to turn the heat on? I'm saying, obviously, we're within health reasons here. Health, safety, of course. But...

He needs, like, there has to be an understanding where there's a limit for this guy. And he realizes, like, okay, AC is needed. And once he gets to this point where AC is needed... We're talking about the sauna technique, and we're not going to sauna Terry. But what I love, what I love is how...

Jake was on board with anything you said. I was. Jake was like, Connor, cook. You're totally right. Connor, go, baby. Let him cook. Connor, go. Speak the gospel, Connor. Connor, we're about to do a video for Terry. It's just going to be an audio one we're going to send to her dad. But before we do that, my friend, how's life? Life is pretty good. I have left the Florida Airbnb situation, and now I'm living in Salem, Massachusetts with a new roommate. In an Airbnb? Yeah.

Not Airbnb, but recommended from a friend. How old is the roommate? 78. 34. Whoa. We're navigating down. We're navigating down. I got to say, for you, I'm happy. For us, I'm sad. Why are you living with such a kid? Well, you might like this, Ben. He, uh...

When he got introduced to me, it's like everyone only called him Dirty Mike. And no one has explained why he's Dirty Mike. What would be your guess? Well, that's the thing. He has been immaculately clean since I've lived here. That's actually bad news. And I am worried for when this, no, because there's obviously going to be a shoe drop. Yeah.

I don't know when that shoe's going to drop. So, Connor, will you tell us three weird things that's going on in your life, my man? What's going on up in Salem? Where they used to have burn witches. One weird thing is I'm picking up a part-time gig up here where I'm going to be navigating the tours, like the ghost tours there. Great. Hold on. What's the name of the company? And if anybody's in Salem, they can request you. Oh, yeah.

Yeah, I think it's Ghost Tours of Salem. Okay, hey, you let us know when we have it, and we will post it on the social. By the way, living with all those people near death is really going to help you with doing a ghost tour. Yes, but you would be a great tour guide. Oh, yeah. And do not be afraid to go off script, my king. I'll tell you what, a lot of people feel like, I've got to say all these talking points. The tour began. Not you.

You are somewhere in the basement. Just start riffing. Yeah, go. Make up what happened in that elevator. They can't prove what you said. They can't. Either one. Even what's written. They can't prove that there was a ghost there named Mary. They can't prove it. Make up the ghost. And worst case, you were possessed. Connor, they're in your world. Yeah. So really quick, Terry. No, I'm sorry, Carly. We're going to make a little thing to your dad. Does that sound good to you, Carly? If we go that route, we make a little fake podcast clip that you could play for your father?

Oh, I'm really hopeful. I'm willing to try anything. Before we start, we need a little bit of info. Can you tell us a little bit more about your dad? And Connor, I need you to listen because you're going to be with us on this, bud, if you're willing. Okay. So Terry is 35. He's from Vancouver. Does he have any health issues?

Well, he's 75, so he's got health issues that go with that. He tells everyone about his enlarged prostate, but I don't think that has anything to do with it. No, no, no. We can use that. You never know. It's hyper-specific. Okay. Good. He's just a ridiculous person. Give us details. People describe him as a character. Sure.

very stubborn, always laughing, always joking, but then he's also very concerned about the safety of everyone around him. What is he, a Gemini? He's

He's an Aries. Okay. Just a signs guy. Chill out. Use that. It's the first time I'm hearing that. That's not okay. He's an Aries? Stop. He's an Aries. I know, right? That's crazy. What's crazy is what Jake just said about the Gemini and the way that he's acting. What's crazy is Gareth is such a cancer right now. Back to you, Carla. Oh, cancer men. Watch out. Can you believe it? Jake. Gag me with a spoon. What just happened? So back to Terry.

He is stubborn. He cares about people's safety. He's got an enlarged prostate. Wow. What is this, the dating game? Hey, everybody, we'll be right back. He's got it all. So, Carly, is there anything else we can say in this? Because I think the move for us, and you tell us if this is wrong, but I think, and Connor, obviously, we're all going to be thinking. Well, this is Moe and Piggly.

I don't think we go that big. We got to go. So I don't think we think about the comedy of it. It'd still be Moe and Piggly. To a 75-year-old man, Garth? Hey, you want to hear a serious... I can Charlie Rose a Moe and Piggly. Why don't we just do a Charlie Rose? His favorite channel is CNN, if that adds anything. It does. Like, he takes it back very seriously. Garrett is just having drinks. He wants to do Piggly. I say I want to be Piggly.

Well, what should we do? I think we do a serious podcast. Yes. Okay. And I think because we're trying to get her dad to believe this and turn it on. Okay. So I think you and I are hosts of a very serious podcast. I'm flexible on the name. And Connor, I think you're... Could the name be CNN's Moe and Piggly?

Yes. Okay. I think that's fair. Do you want to do CNN Dr. Moe and Dr. Piggly? I absolutely do. Okay. Can I pitch Dr. Moe and Mr. Piggly? Yes, of course. Thank you very much. 100%. I don't know why you wanted to be Mr. Not a Doctor. No, I mean...

I want to be the guy. I'll be the interviewer of the doctor. Okay, but... But I also like the way Mr. Piggly sounds. But Connor is our star. Okay, so Dr. Moe, Mr. Piggly, and Connor can be the guests, but we don't want to put too much on Connor. Connor, do you want a lot, a little, or medium? Because I think you can handle a lot. I think I can handle a lot. I'm interested to see where... Okay, well, Connor, just so you know, what we're going to need from you is we're going to need...

The dangers of being a senior. And not having the AC on. Not having the AC on, especially in areas like Canada, which are heating up at rates that we were completely unpredictable. I'm going to give you something, Connor. And a big prostate. Yeah, but I'm going to give you something. The reason why, Connor, is the heat enlarges the prostate. Further. Do you guys want seconds or can I have these? I'm okay. Dig in. And the AC is actually known to shrink the prostate. Okay.

Well, how about this? Not the AC. Cold temperatures. Yes. A house that has a mean temperature of around 70 degrees. Helps the body. It helps longevity. It helps healing. Okay. Heat exacerbates current medical conditions. I think that's right. So, Connor, do you feel confident? Oh, yeah. Carly, if this works, because we're going to try to do a quick, will you actually send this to your dad and then follow up with us?

Oh, in a heartbeat. Okay. All right. We're going to call you Connor Salem. All right. So is everybody ready to try this? We're going to try to get it in one, guys. Am I going to do it in three? No. Let's get it in one. Okay. Hey, not because of me. Piggly's ready to go, asshole. Piggly's wild. My mom's hating this. This is not for your mom. It is. Hang in there. You're being more wild than me. I've been very controlled. Kevin, you think that's true?

Don't let the drunk lifeguard decide who's wild. I'm a shark. All right, ready? I'm still a shark. So I'm Dr. Moe. You're Mr. Piggly. Connor, you're Connor. Let's do an intro. Agreed. Okay. And CNN. Yes.

Okay, and welcome back to Dr. Mo and Mr. Piggly. We're happy to be here again today. We've been talking about the heat and what the heat is doing. This is a really interesting one. I actually find this so interesting. This is a problem that affects everybody. But I also didn't realize that the temperature of your home can affect your health. I think that's the thing, and that's why we're going to bring in our guest in a second. But a lot of people think it's just the external temperatures that really mess with you. You know, Mr. Piggly, you're...

Go ahead. What's going on? Yeah, go ahead, Dr. Mo. You're 100% right, because I remember when I was growing up. What just happened to you, though? It felt like the heat took you over. Stop. Start over. It was saying Mr. Piggly. Oh, I saw. So goofy. Your body, your throat rejected saying it. It didn't want to say it. Yeah, you were allergic to it. I think we're going to win here. By the way, I called it in three. Yes, let's do it. That was my fault. Yep. All right, ready? Yes. Be professional. Three, two, one.

And welcome back to Dr. Mo, Mr. Piggly, CNN podcast. Here we are today. We're talking about heat. The heat is something that affects everybody. The heat's been getting more and more. This summer is the hottest summer on record. It's wild, Mr. Piggly. It absolutely is, Dr. Mo. Did you have any idea that the temperature within the home affected the health and longevity this much? It makes sense, but I really didn't. I think people...

People always think of the external. It's the external. So older people have notorious always going to the Floridas or the Arizonas. But now the studies are coming out that the colder temperature within the home.

Yes. And that's we're going to bring in our guests in a second, Dr. Connor Salem. But but before we do. Yeah. I think that is one thing that really we are are so interested in. Everybody has someone in their life who's a little bit older and we really need to take care of them. And the way that it can exacerbate health conditions they already have. Yeah.

I just never thought that the air conditioner was our friend. Heart conditions, breathing problems, prostate enlargement. Oh, if you have an enlarged prostate, you turn on the AC and it might go down? Okay, well, why don't we bring in our guests? This is Professor Conor Salem. Conor, or Professor Salem, sorry. I was shocked when I read your paper. Now...

You are basically suggesting that a senior citizen's house has to be kept at around 70 degrees in order for them to get through some of these extreme heats. Is that right? Yes, gentlemen, I am. It took a lot of years of studying and a lot of years of doing clinical trials, but at the end of it, we did get some conclusive results, actually. And what were those studies you did, Connor? So we were seeing how temperature affects the elderly there, and what we found out at the end of it

surprisingly, was that if you are over the age of 70 and you have a heat temperature that is above 85 degrees in your house, your prostate is 12 times likely to enlarge. So what if it's not? So Connor, I just have a question here because I find this fascinating. What if it wasn't as hot as 85? What if it was, say, 80?

Well, then it becomes more like an 11 or 10, but it's usually anything 85 and above. 85 is so hot. You don't need...

We don't need an AC to get a below 85. 70. We need like 70. It's got to be way colder, Connor. You want me to start at 70? I'll start at 70. I thought we were going there. That's like there's a fire in the house. I'll tell you what Terry's going to say is, I'm good. Connor, you see? I don't have a fire in my house. I thought a compromise at 85. No, 85 is crazy. 75 years old.

Connor, you're doing great. We gave you some notes. Let's go way colder. You feel, yeah, colder. And we're all hoping for our setup too. This all has to be under two minutes, guys.

It has to be. That's a no for me, Connor. Don't worry. We're all getting no. I don't think, Carly, you tell me, is your dad going to listen to a nine-minute clip? He watches CNN. Honestly, you guys put prostate enlargement in that. He's listening. Absolutely. Get it in the beginning. All right, we're going back. So, Connor, it's got to be a little bit colder, my guy. Yeah, we're talking 72 degrees. We want him to feel he has to turn it on 10 hours a day. He has to stand in front of it.

And just not have a burning fire in his house. The secret to the old-fashioned is the Luxardo cherry. And Kevin... I'm a shark. By the way, Kevin's talking like Terry. Okay, here we go. We're back in. All right.

All right, and welcome back to Dr. Mo and Mr. Piggly, a podcast that always investigates something that's affecting citizens of this great country of ours. This is such an interesting one, Mr. Piggly. Well, we've been digging into it. I had no idea. Well, I think one of the things we love about doing this show is CNN is able to give you the broad strokes, but we get down to the nitty gritty. Yeah, but I'll tell you, Mr. Piggly, the thing for me, I always believed it. So the

Sorry, audience. I'm jumping ahead because I'm excited. But we're talking about internal temperatures, temperatures within the home affecting your health. Well, to contextualize it a little bit more, we're all dealing with extreme heat. This summer has been the hottest summer on record. And so we're wondering. Even here in Vancouver. Well, and you always say, yeah, I mean, anywhere. I mean, I never had an AERI-C when I was growing up. Did you? No, I did not. You didn't need one, though.

But health-wise, we need one now? Didn't need one, though. But the way that the heat is now sort of exacerbating things that people already have, conditions that people already have, especially seniors. But did you know that everybody, but especially seniors, but did you know that it affects your prostate? If you have an enlarged prostate and you take your AC on, let's get to our guest. Okay, but it exacerbates heart conditions. It exacerbates...

Breathing, but enlarged prostate is a big one. I believe this was just the sun. Okay, we're very excited to have our guest here because he's a professor who's written a lot on this. Love his podcast. And he's got a great podcast called The Salem Trial because his last name's Salem. Professor Conor Salem. Now, he wrote a lot about the idea of how important it is to keep your home cool. Thank you. We think that the heat outside is what gets us, but it's actually, and you can jump in here, Professor Salem, it's actually the heat inside your house that can be the problem. Is that right?

That is absolutely right, Mr. Pagley. You've been hitting a lot of it on the nose already. I see why you're a professional at this. Well, thank you. And I'm not even the doctor on this show. Well, both of us. I'm not even the doctor on this show. Both of us are professionals. All right, Mo. Go ahead, go ahead, Professor Stanley. Dr. Mo. So I went to, did some clinical trials. Great. And we were discovering whether heat had an effect on the senior citizen population. And what we found at the end of it

was that if you had the house over the temperature of 72 degrees Fahrenheit, your prostate was 12 times likely to be enlarged. Wow. Wait, I'm sorry, doctor. Did you say 72? Over the temperature of 72 degrees. So naturally, a home is anywhere from 71 to 75. So are you saying that people should keep their AC on even if that's not their personal preference for their health?

It is for the betterment of their life, the quality of their life. If they are looking for better health results, it starts with the AC. Can I just jump in quickly? Because I know I have elder parents, and I think to some extent they think that living in a hothouse

is kind of a point of pride or it maybe helps them. So you're saying... Or my father's pretty stubborn. Oh, you should see. You think Dr. Mo is stubborn. I'll tell you behind the scenes, he really is. But his father is a nightmare. I think you're pretty stubborn. Your father's a nightmare. But what we're trying to drill down on is you're basically saying that it's important for them to keep that temperature down. It's a point of pride. Question for you, Mr. Pigley. What was that whole tangent you just did? Just to attack me personally? Yeah.

I met your father. He was... Your father was very upset. I just don't know why you'd interrupt the interview. It's a tackle.

Seems crazy. Your father visited the set of the podcast one day. I understand, but it's crazy. And he was very upset there wasn't oatmeal. It was crazy behavior. And I saw where you got it from. But Professor Salem, so you're saying it's very important for the seniors, especially those with any health conditions, just keep that temperature down.

Yes. If they have the ability, 70 degrees and lower will improve their prostate and will improve their brain function 200%. Fascinating. Let's hold on. Now, hold on one second, Carly, because we can cut out that middle part, right, Kevin? Yeah. So everything besides the weird tangent where Gareth and I blew it, I think that's pretty good. Carly, what do you think? I,

I definitely agree. You also got me excited about Central Air and maybe just sneaking that into his house. Oh, but let's do an addendum. Let's do an addendum. Let's do an addendum. OK, I got no, no, no. I think I think the podcast got it. OK, you're happy. Well, no, I mean, if you. Oh, very. OK, are you going to send this clip? Oh, yeah. CNN swish all that. Hey, Connor.

Connor, great work. We love you, big man. We love you, buddy. And please tell us what's going on in Salem with these tours, and we will give a plug. And when you find out why he's Dirty Mike, let us know. Please. And Carly, thank you for the call. Thank you, Connor. Thank you, guys. Thanks, Carly. Thanks, Connor. Thanks. Thanks, everybody. Bye.

So I'm 32 and I'm calling from Southern Maryland. And what can we do for you today? So my backstory is that my five chickens keep crossing the road. Come on. Are you serious? I'm being dead serious. So your five chickens keep crossing the road. It's a problem. Okay. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah, and I do have more, but they're the problem children. Okay. I've seen this, by the way. There are like... Yes, me too. Yeah, if you... I mean, you want to give them freedom, but they can be real... They really like to explore. So pretty much in the neighborhood where I live, a lot of people pass by, and it's becoming a problem to the point that people are having to pull off to the side of the road to come and tell me, hey, your chicken's crossed.

But some people love them. I personally don't want to put up a sign because, I mean, the road's supposed to be 30 miles an hour anyways. Like, I don't know what to do about this because more people are coming in the neighborhood and my chickens aren't going to stop. So, wait, Ginger, I got a question. Don't chickens live in a coo? Like where there's a little fence around it?

Are these free range? Yeah, they're part-time free range. So even though I have them in like a fence down area, but it's still kind of open, the other chickens will actually climb over the fence. Okay. So you've tried, you can't contain these chickens. So what is the specific- Isolated as a statement from the show. It's great. Yeah. Like what do I do to not piss people off? Should I put a sign out there? Should I put

Put out traffic cones. Like... Well, you can't put out traffic cones. What do I do not to piss off my neighborhood? Right. Well, yeah, you can't do the traffic cones, I'd imagine, because it's not like there's a scheduled time when those chickens cross, right? Yeah. And those little fuckers are free range. They literally do whatever they want. They're just crossing whenever they want. Yeah. Yes. I think... Look...

A sign might be a fine call. Why don't we lean into a sign of a joke? Why did the chicken cross the road and then the other side to piss you off? Because you have chickens literally crossing a road. We all know it. People are getting annoyed. I think we've got to go in the world of a sign, Ginger. You're not going to stand out there with a megaphone. No, that's kind of what I was thinking. Well, I also debated being that crazy lady trying to speedometer people with a hairdryer maybe. Oh, because part of the fear, like are you partly afraid someone's going to run over your chicken?

I mean, honestly, they'll run out of the road if they want, but they do sometimes stop traffic.

I would say maybe you want to have a sign. I think a sign for sure. I would say you want a sign. I kind of like the punchline sign. Me too. I think what we need is a funny sign. I agree. So, and maybe it's a funny sign and we do one on each going each way. I think that's right. And a sign that looks- And one on each side of the road. So that's what I mean. Yeah. But you can go each direction. This would be, you can also go, why did the chicken cross the road on the other side of the road to blank? Well-

Because you don't want to hit your punchline for someone who's never going to come back. Yeah, that's true. So I think you want to make each sign independently funny. Here's where we're getting into the dangers on Ginger. Can't be too wordy. Well, also, you can't lead to somebody turning around and dying. Well, that's why you don't. But they go, why did you cross the road? But that's why you do one sign that is just like, but the other side, careful chickens cross the road. This is not a joke.

Okay. Something like that on one side. Have you ever considered a bigger cage with a top? That's also an option. We actually just built the cage bigger. We just extended it. They still have chicken drama, so I

So I still have to free range them. Oh, so I understand. So when they're caged up, those little chickens get in a little bit of trouble with each other. So you're letting them out to get a better life. Yeah, they get mad at each other. But the problem is those little sons of bitches are crossing the street. Jake, by the way, has just locked into the call. Well, I'm just trying. I know. This is a really tricky one. Sorry, I was all over the place. No, it's not you, Ginger. We've been drinking. So...

It's going to be a theme all night. And by the way, Kevin just put whiskey in front of it. Check out your glasses. Oh, wow. Made by an incredible person, Savannah. Savannah. Gilly Bean, we're here to help. Fake Jake, we're here to help. Mine says hunk of the show. Pretty nice. Thanks, Savannah. Thank you, Savannah. Thank you, Savannah. I got an idea. What about like a fake touristy mural sign?

that you turn it into like, you know, when you're on a road trip and you see like in eight blocks, the alligator farm in seven blocks, the you'll see five, the origin of the chicken joke. This is where the original chickens cross the road. I like slow down to see them in five blocks. I can actually do like a whole portrait. I have 24 of them. I like this. That's good because if you give it, if you get like falling rocks. Yes. Like that's a sign where like, oh shit. And they do those.

Well in advance yes, so if you do one that's just like but you could do a couple

You could do a couple of them. Agreed. But you could build it up, and you could do it. The original cross. Do you remember like Walt, somewhere in like South Dakota or somewhere in the Midwest, they'll have like, you know, and I know in Iowa they had the I-80 crossing. They start talking about that so far in advance. You can build this ginger that it's the original chickens. Where the joke came from. Where the joke came from. I like that. And then when they drive up, if they see the chickens, they're going to

I like that. I like that. You put a sign up that says in one mile. See the origin of the great chicken. Careful chickens. Origin of the chicken. Why did the chicken cross the road? Joe, what do you think of that, Ginger?

I actually like that, and I could probably get my neighbor who's, like, a few hundred yards up to maybe allow me to kind of put that in their yard. What were you saying about the art when you said a portrait? What can you do there? You seem to have something. Oh, like, if you wanted to, like, I could take pictures of, like, all the chickens and, like, do, yeah, like, a picture show, I guess, and show, like, who's...

who's in the flock, I guess. Yeah, and I would also do like kind of old school font to make it look like a 1930s circus thing. Put it like, make it look a little vintage and a little randy. Well, you could also, you could do little portraits for each one that crosses. Yes, that's fun. Like meet Xavier. Yes. He's the spicy chicken. You know what they do? They do that at the zoo where they're like, this is, you know,

This is Winston blah, blah, blah. Winston is 33 years old. Yeah. I think that's a really... Like a Tinder profile. Yeah. I can definitely do that. They do have names. So, Ginger, I would say do that, and you're building up to the people seeing the signs slowing down and looking for the place where the original joke first started in 1927. Yes. The more you make it feel like... That's exactly right. And I think the more that you make it feel like it is...

A tourist trap? Yes. The more that people will be respectful of what's coming. Honestly, if I'm on a road trip. You don't want to kill it. No. If I'm on a road trip going through and I see it and I'm with my kids, I'll go like, hey, take a photo with the chickens. Yeah. You're not mad about stopping. You're thrilled. You'll be more respectful. I think that's good. So what, Ginger, what did you think of that idea? And is that something that you could actually do? Because I think we can get a win here. I agree.

And I think this could work. And I think it could make your neighbors have fun. It could be a little bit community building and it's ridiculous. What do you think? Are you going to do it? I think I'm definitely going to do that. I like that a lot better than like just the regular chicken crossing sign. And then at least it makes it funny. I think so too. And then we require pictures of these signs leading up a video from the POV of a passenger driving. Yes. I think of the pictures leading up and then pretending it's a big tourist thing that can be fun.

This could end in merch. This could end in merch for you. Ginger, let's take the win on this. Will you do those signs and will you take photos and send to us? Absolutely. My husband's going to love this new task that we got to do. I love it. I think it's really fun. Thank you so much, guys. Appreciate it. Happy 100th. Take care. Bye.

Hey everyone, producer Kevin here. The original call from this next follow-up aired on July 15th. It's called Your Fourth Favorite Spider-Man, and it's the third call in the episode. So if you'd like to listen as a quick refresher, go for it. Enjoy! Hi, yes. How are you? What is your name, your age, and where you're calling from, and...

How about your favorite band? There we go. Well, my name's Angelica. I'm calling from Frederick. And I was hoping to talk to Big Fat Baby and Ginger Picknick. All right. Hold on. First of all... By the way, you are. By the way...

Just saying Frederick is not enough for me. It's shocking. You didn't say New York City. Isn't that St. Louis? Where is Frederick? You're right, Kara. Frederick, Maryland. Frederick, Maryland. We didn't know that. But I do like that you just said Frederick. I'm obviously from Frederick. Oh, that's a Frederick. Oh, Maryland. We love Maryland. I love Frederick. Okay. And you want to talk to Ginger Picnic and Big Fat Baby. And Big Fat Baby.

Is this, is there a... Why do you need them? Don't you take our, what is your problem? No, I just, I wanted to update you guys. So you helped me with that awesome video. Oh, wait, wait, wait. Wait, wait, you are the doll holder. You have the doll. Oh, great. Holy, I gotta tell you. How are you? Everything okay? Yay!

How are you? We're back. I love Frederick. Now mom sleeps with us. Can we sleep in the room with you? We can move plants with our minds. My neck hurts. My neck's killing me. So tell us what's happening. We passed away. We passed away 103 years ago, but we come out every night. And we live here forever.

Ever. Ever. So what's happening? What's our problem? We're very into this one. But wait, I got to tell you, the amount of people, like people fucking loved looking at the pictures of your doll set up. And everyone's reaction was just like ours, even though ours was pretty horrified. Some were mixed. But everyone was like, oh my God. Also, some people were saying that's worth some real money, and that's the camp I'm in.

That's the camp I'm in. I think you got something with those dolls. But what's going on? Where are they living? What was it, the music room? It was the basement. It's in the basement, but you wanted to move it up into a room. Can you do a quick refresher for new people in the chat? Call her just a little bit.

Oh, yeah. Sorry. I had asked Jake and Gareth if they could help me convince my husband to hang up my case of baby dolls that my dad found inside of a wall of a condemned home. And

So my husband didn't want me to put them up anywhere because they were really freaking him out. And for years, I've been trying to convince him to hang them up and display them in our home. And so Jake and Gareth were very helpful. And they made a video that I showed my husband. Oh, you did?

okay yes i did so that was the setup we and we basically were our advice to you was basically it was originally going to be there was a room upstairs yes that we that's where you wanted it yes hunk is drunk good comment hunk is drunk hunk is for sure drunk so we want it and you were going to show it to him please please tell us what happened yeah so first

First of all, I got it at like 6 o'clock in the morning, the email. So I woke him up. And then I said, you got to watch this. You got to watch this. It's really important. 6 a.m. Waking him up. That's shocking. Scary. Yeah, we would not have signed up. Those are the tactics of a woman who has a weird thing of dolls. Wake up. Wake up at 6 a.m. Watch this video. Two guys made a weird video of our dolls. He's like, I'm literally in the middle of a dream. The worst time to do this. Okay, so you wake up this poor man.

And you show him the video and what's he thinking? Well, he obviously was pretty sleepy, but then he started laughing really hard and he asked a bunch of questions and thought it was fake at first. And then he realized that I actually caught him to the podcast and actually talked to you guys. Excellent. And so he was finally convinced and he hung up the babies. Great. In what room? In Gia's room. And so you're happy. You got exactly what you wanted.

Oh yeah, absolutely. I can't, I am shocked. It's a nice win. Oh my Lord. Oh God. I'm actually having, I do have PTSD. Can you try to make it bigger? Kev? No, no, we're good at that size. Oh, they,

They really look like they came off the Titanic. And what do they do look like? They came off the Titanic. They look like waterlogged. Yeah. And so what did you, what's the vibe now that they're up? How long until her husband calls? Yeah. Jesus. Look at Ginger Baby. I mean, Ginger Baby looks like it was exhumed. How are you feeling with it up? Where are you at?

I'm feeling really good about it. I feel like it brings a lot of character. Sure does. That's true. I actually moved my desk in there as well, so I can have it as my office. Let's get the close-up shot of the cat. Now we got your cat in the foreground. By the way, I think it looks good up there. And you would want to see my cat? Yeah. I actually think, I'm not even making a joke here, I'm not trying to do a positive slant, I think it looks great on that wall. I

And I'll be totally honest with how I feel. It's crazy. I just would be like, this is crazy. I would be fired up if I was staying in like a... Fired up? Can I finish? If I was in a vintage hotel and on the wall that was there, I would be fired up. I don't know how I would feel. My question is, how close is your husband to where you are right now? Great question. He's actually sitting right next to me. May we have a word with him quickly? That's right.

Oh, of course. What's his name? Hey, fellas. How's it going? Hey, Austin. Hey, Austin. Austin, how are you? Hey, great. Pleasure to meet y'all. Pleasure to meet you. So, Austin, will you tell us a little bit how you're feeling about having these dolls on the wall? Where are you at? So, you know, it's been a talking point for a while. Sure. And...

You know, I'm a big fan of the pod. So it kind of felt unfair, you know, to have that video. Cause he just knew I had to put them up. Yeah. It's true. But now that they're up, I, you know, I've made sure I tightened up all the screws and the plexiglass. Um, it,

This way, you know, it's almost better because I can see them walking downstairs every day and know they're all still there in the cage. By the way, if one of those doll heads goes missing one day when you walk by it, just run. But I got to now say to you, I got to say to you too for a second.

This wasn't your wish, Austin, but it does seem like a happy ending that was really helped by the pod. Shocking. Right? Am I out of line here? No, you're right. I'm just shocked. But this, it's up on the wall. The couple's happy. Yeah. They're both saying like, you know what? This works. It is. Our caller called in with a very weird problem. Very weird. And this is a very happy ending. Am I wrong? Well, for now it is. It could be part of a Netflix sixth season.

you know, when you guys both end up murdering, if eventually you guys like somehow, you know, but let's cross that bridge later. I agree. And that's only going to help the show. So I'm going to also say a hundred percent win. So guys, we appreciate, we loved this call. Love the call. Your cat looks awesome. Uh, and if something else happens with those weird dolls, please call us back. Yep, absolutely. And if we're ever in Frederick, um, we'd love to come by and, uh, sign a couple of those heads.

Hell yeah, that'd be great. It's going to happen. Look at Jake. He's fired up. What are you talking about? You're not going to go there. Thank you guys so much. I'll see you in Frederick. Thank you. Do you really want to take away the value of these dolls by writing our markers on these shanties? You have antique roadshowed these things in your mind in a way that is crazy. I think she could get $35,000 to $5,000. $35,000 to $5,000. Yes.

Are you ever going to get these appraised? Are you interested in buying them, Jake? No, he's not. No. I'm interested in being. Trust me, his wife would not let these near his shit. You know what I'm interested in being? I'm interested in being the Barbara to these and helping you because you've got a great product, but you need me to help get them out. I know what to do with these lobster rolls. I'm going to put a doll in everybody's hand. I would say this.

If you ever want to do a third follow-up or a third interaction, the move would be to actually get them appraised. I totally would. I would be very curious what the actual value of these Titanic doll heads are. I would consider buying these. That's a shocking start to anything. If you could convince the other shark, Robert. No, no. If we... Gareth, what if we bought them and we took them to an appraisal? If we put them in here... Yes. Oh, my God.

Caller, what grade would you give Jake and Gareth for their performance in this call? A plus. 100%. Thank you. Gold stars. We appreciate the call, guys. Thank you so much. Thank you so much. Truly a great work. Appreciate it, Angelica and Austin. Love you. Love you. Miss you. Bye. I don't know the reality of how we're going to do it. I know we're trying to do that painting. This is already crazy.

I know we're going to do that painting. What? We're getting the guy, getting an 80-year-old man to do a painting. I want to start. This is crazy already. What do you think I want to say? I think you're talking about how do we do more like merchandise or something like that. And buy stuff together. But invest in. As Robert and Barbara. Yeah, but they make good investments. What is your upside? We make bad ones, but we do it for the show. That's not a good business model. Here's what I think would be funny. Okay.

If somebody's got something like this, we go in as two sharks. It's crazy. And then they could have equity in it. So let's say that. What are you eating? But listen, here's what I'm saying. Barbara and Robert making deals. I like it. Losing money. I like it for the content. Yeah. So I like it for the, as far as an, if we weren't entertaining, it would be the worst idea ever. Well, we are entertaining. Okay. But in that moment. We start incorporating. Then we start going, I'm willing to do this, but I need another shark.

And guess what? Kevin's another shark. Two keys got a turn. I'm a shark. But you'd be like Ashton Kutcher, the sometimes visiting shark. I'm a shark, just because he's wet right now. I'm a shark. Just because he's drunk as a fish. I'm a shark. I'm a shark. Sharks never say, I'm a shark. He said that and it got glossed over so fast. Kevin can be in two. I'm a shark.

Hello. No notebook. I haven't been doing that. I know. How are you? You're like the waiter who like now just squats down. And now you're copying me with no notebook. I left it over there. You're such a little brother. Oh, for God's sake. Hi, caller. You're on. We're here to help. And now you're using the notebook. You're on with Jake and Gareth. Can we get your name, age, and where you're calling from, please?

Hi, this is Rebecca. I'm 29 years old calling from Alabama. All right. Rebecca from Alabama. Jake's writing it down because he likes to copy me. What what can we help you with today?

So I've been dating my boyfriend for almost two years now, and we just moved in together about two or three weeks ago. I've known this about him that he loves milk. And I've known this just because most places that if we're traveling somewhere, he likes to have a gallon of milk while we're there. We visit my parents. What kind of milk? He's a big milk guy. Whole, 2%? What are we talking about? He's a 2%-er. Okay. So he's a...

He's a two percenter. He apparently used to be whole milk and he's cut back to two percent. Now that we live together, I'm realizing that he consumes it quite a bit to the point where it's almost like feels like two gallons a week. And while I don't want to like his yuck, his yum. I mean, I love that, you know, he loves what he loves. But consistently, this seems like a large quantity of milk is

over time and I'm just curious and want to know what's a good way to kind of approach this politely or do I have a milk intervention just on how much he's consuming it's a lot like a lot of milk there's a lot of milk this is a this is uh Rebecca

What I like to refer to as wheelhouse. Yeah, this is right where we need you. Your problem. We never say this. But you've come to the right place. Your problem is that you're, is it a boyfriend or a husband? I can't remember. Boyfriend. Your boyfriend drinks a lot of milk. Yeah, your boyfriend consumes way too much milk. This feels like the example I would give to somebody. Yes. What kind of calls does your show get? It kind of has nothing. Stupid stuff. Like a girl in Alabama moves in with a guy and he drinks too much milk.

Yeah.

I feel like we need a milkman. You married one. So to get deep on this, what are we calling this milk guy? Suds. We'll call him Chris. Chris. So your issue with his milk consumption, let's get right to the bottom of it. Let's get to the truth. Let's cut out all bullshit. What is the issue with it? I guess it's really like, I'm worried it's going to be a long-term two-gallon-a-milk issue that we're always going to have to have

a gallon in the fridge or there's gonna be a panic. - By the way. - Yeah, but hold on. - Yeah. - Who cares? Who cares if there's two gallons of milk in the fridge, Rebecca? - You know, answer Jake's question and then I'll defend you, I'll defend why. - Okay, first, who cares, Gareth? Why is this bad? - Two reasons. - Okay. - One, I'm just like, I don't love, like, in a lover's mouth to be like, watch that kind of white film live there for extra long. - That's gross. - Second, shelf space in the fridge.

If you're talking two gallons of milk, you're talking half of the top shelf is gone. You're talking also travel hotels filled with milk. The idea that when you got to land, you got to figure out some milk logistics. Like milk or cigarettes. Yeah. Like, you know, I need my milk. Yeah. So is that- Could get him a milk fridge. So Rebecca is part- I need like a milk cooler. So the issue is, is it-

The space? I'm trying to just... It's the quantity. It's the quantity. Okay, I'm just trying to really nail... It kind of grosses you out. It's the quantity. Yeah. Is it that you find it disgusting? Is it the fridge space? I think it's the constant concern that we don't have enough. I get it. He's weird with milk. You know, it seems like it's so such a necessary

Yeah, it's just such a necessity. And he's 32 years old. So can we curb back on the milk a little bit? So what do you think? Is this like a baby's baba kind of thing? Where did the milk come from? I'll bet he thinks it's just super healthy. Yeah, he probably thinks it's great for his bones. Rebecca, why does, what do we call this character again? Chris? Why does Chris like milk so much? It can't just be for the taste.

I think it's just something he's grown up with. He's always been. It's been a milk household. He said that growing up, they had to go every other day to get a gallon of milk. And I think that's where my future concern becomes. You're going to have a bunch of kids just drink. Everyone's got their own two gallon milk. Housing milk. You're going to be the milk family. Yeah. The milk. Yeah. Honestly. And I do find that I get being grossed out by that.

So then the question is, is how do we curb a man's addiction to milk that he's been addicted to his whole life? It sounds like she wants to figure out the way to have a tough conversation. I have a pitch that leads us in a direction of sabotage. Hmm.

So I don't know if you want this one. Let's hear it. Let's hear it. This is what I would pitch. I would pitch you low-key grab, and this is fucked up, but I want to create a situation where he has what I'll call milk backs, flashbacks to this moment where he thinks. You gross out his milk. You're going to gross out his milk. Here's what you're going to do. You're going to go to the store.

Whatever you buy his gallon of milk that he wants you're also gonna buy two extra gallons of milk that he's not gonna know about You're gonna put those two gallons of milk in the closet and hide them and in 15 days You're gonna replace whatever milk he has in the fridge with that gallon when he goes there to get it It's gonna come out chunky stinky And he's gonna yeah And then you do it with the second gallon of milk that you bought like a week later and be like I actually I read something about how milk was getting weird lately. I don't know pitch

So, Rebecca, when you hear that, what are your thoughts? Besides thinking I have a problematic mind, what do you think? Well, here's what's interesting about it before you answer.

If you eat something that really almost makes you barf, it changes the way you look at it. Yes. I won't eat Malaysian food based on one experience. I had one bad experience with gin. Yes. And you throw them out. I'm like, I'll never have gin again. Yes, you throw them out. Because I decided to drink a bottle of it in eight minutes. I'm holding you accountable, gin. It's not my consumption. Your industry did this. So the idea of it is-

Maybe you take his milk and you fill it halfway up with rotten milk Well, you just leave a gallon in the fucking closet and then when he's in there Just get rid of that gallon and put that and fucking shady what we're hoping for is he takes one sip and goes one? one swig whatever and he's like What are your thoughts? Yeah that I?

He's running on, you know, years and years of a love and devotion to milk. My concern is that he's just going to I'm going to be demoted of taking up milk ever again, which is totally fine. Yeah, honestly with me, but

I think it probably would just continue. But hold on. I just want to say my pitch is not that this is the fresh gallon you put in. What you're going to do is you're going to do the Indiana Jones bag of sand for the idle swap. He's going to be halfway through that gallon. Then you're going to get the same amount. You're going to put it in there and he's going to go like, this milk turned fast or something like that. But we might be dealing with too long of a problem. It's a pitch. So here's another thought.

What are you thinking? Kevin brought it up about getting a under $200 milk fridge for the garage, a weird closet and saying, keep your milk in there. It's kind of getting a little bit much for me and it's grossing me out. Can we make a little separation between church and state? The milk is your thing. Yeah. It's too much milk.

Your milk is grossing me out. I will say my wife has a few things that she's been allowed to say where she'll say like, that's pretty gross. And as the other part of that relationship, you're like, I don't want this gross thing to get any bigger.

Uh-huh. She's let you know you're on thin ice. I don't like. And you walk back to land. I don't like this path. Yeah, you can do whatever you want. See, that's what that because I was initially going to say the second milk fridge doesn't really solve the problem. But it is a nice way to say I'm not asking you to stop, but I am letting you know that I don't love it. What about also finding another drink, something with electrolytes?

and you make a, you get a big jug. You get one of those like two gallon bottles, which I've drank out of before where you can buy on Amazon for 30 bucks. And you get some like kind of sweet tasting electrolyte and you fill it with like, you cut lemons in it and you go, Hey honey,

you can have as much as you want from this. Let's just drink it together because it's really hydrating. And you can go, and I read it's way more hydrating than milk because milk, although it's got, you go, milk has calcium in it, but it's actually not hydrating. So will you do me if he's about to grab a thing of milk where you go, and I do this with my kids if they want like, you know, juice, I'll go, you can have that juice, but you got to chug a water first.

Yeah. So you could say, do me a favor, drink a glass of this electrolyte water and then have your milk. And I'll tell you what's going to happen. You're going to change his addiction. I hope so. The more I think about this problem, the more I am like it. There's no time in my life where I'd be like, I could go for a glass of milk. Yeah, same.

But what do you think of that idea? I like that. Just creating a thing that you're asking him to do has nothing to do with the goddamn milk. Because if you're trying to get a heroin addict to stop doing heroin, you don't cut out heroin. You give him another addiction. What a great... I don't know if that comp... But they do. Have a little meth, my man. No, but all these guys, they get... What is it? Methadone. Yeah, they're all on methadone. Yeah.

Yeah. And it's better than the other drugs. I like that pitch. What do you think of that? An electrolyte drink that you say to him, hey, I just heard this stupid podcast, but they're talking about how it's like one of these, you know, live forever podcast. And they're talking about how milk really like dries you out. Are you? Oh, here's what you go with.

You heard a podcast, and it's called the Piggly and Mo Show. I was just going to ask if we're doing Piggly and Mo. And they're talking about how milk and the dairy industry, they're putting so much hormones into everything that unless you're around the goddamn cow- You've got to go to the farm. Unless you're at the farm, do not drink the milk. All right, are we ready for Piggly and Mo? I'll say-

He's big on the longevity and listening to podcasts about living as long as possible. You're going to say you found a clip from the Pigliammo show and they were talking about the benefits of electrolytes and the downside to drinking too much milk and why. Would you send this to him? Is there a chance this would work?

I think so. I mean, I think that he's really big into living as long as possible and longevity and especially what people on podcasts may say. So I would definitely. Here's what we can maybe do, Gareth. Piggly and Moe would be funnier, but I don't think it'd be effective.

Here's what I think could be effective. We send an audio only where it's a serious podcast like Huberman or all these guys where one of us is the milk expert or the dairy expert and the other one is hosting the show. And it's a clip. Now, why don't we do a nod to Piggly and Moe where the host will be John Piggly and the doctor will be Dr. Moe Swazin. Perfect. Okay. So you're going to get. Who do you want to be? Okay.

I mean, obviously I'll be Moe and you'll be Bigley. But who are you? Doctor? Are you the, are you the, I'll be the scientist. Okay. Okay. Okay. So you're going to get this clip and you're going to send it to him. Um, wheelhouse as, as just its own clip to hear what he comes up with.

Does that make sense? Yes. Okay. And then, uh, doctor, you start the pod. It's not the beginning of the pod. She's just sending a clip from the pod. Okay. And you're not, you're the milk guy. I'm the, uh, dairy expert. All right. And this is your pod. Yep. Uh, another thing that I was reading about recently, and I know you've studied a lot into this, uh, Dr. Moment is, um, uh,

The effects of milk. I think when people think about milk today, we still think of milk as we did when we were kids. You drink milk with your lunch and... Oh, because that's how it used to be. And you sort of frame that as a bit of indoctrination. You say...

Drinking milk on that level is not something you recommend or you suggest. Thank you for asking. Well, the dairy industry has just changed so dramatically. Right. So those of us who were raised on milk, I was personally raised on milk myself, it's a totally different product. Yeah. So milk from the farm, milk from an actual animal is wonderful. It is beneficial. It's got vitamin C. But what you're buying in the store now is... You're just drinking processed nothingness.

So do you even feel like there are any benefits to store-bought milk or anything? The milk that people are consuming right now based off the grocery stores they're getting, I'm even including the Whole Foods and the quote-unquote healthy markets, this is not actually milk. Is it detrimental? Is there a downside to drinking that? We have not seen that there's actual evidence to show that, but we do see that it builds mucus in the lungs. It is not good for the body, but there's nothing beneficial. You're not getting calcium from it. See, I think that would fascinate most people. I find it utterly fascinating, but the problem is you can't get that. Utterly? Utterly.

Is that intentional? It's very funny. I picked up on it. But what you can't do... Go ahead. Don't get emotional. Go ahead and say what you want to say. Stop. What? We had it. We had it. We'll cut this part out. Okay. Keep going. This is for him. Because then I wanted to respond. I can't be emotional. What I have found in my research is...

If you're looking for the hydration, if you're looking for the calcium, you should do an electrolyte-based drink. Okay. There's plenty of them on the market. These have not been tapped. The problem with the messaging about what's happening with big dairy is that we can't get that message out because of the lobbyists. So my message to anyone listening to this is please curb your milk intake. Please curb your...

your cheese intake. It is not good for your longevity. Okay, well, so move to the electrolytes. We have to take a quick ad break, but the Piggly Hour will be right back. I want to thank again Dr. Momin for coming in, and we'll pick up more after this quick break. From ZocDoc. Please don't jump in. By the way, Rebecca. Great job, boys. Your thoughts.

I thought that was fantastic. Right. I really was buying into it. And we could send you, we'll cut out our bits. We'll keep it for our show, but for your purposes. But if you just say that, Tim, and you could do it via an email, what if you say, hey, just got sent, is there somebody in your life who could send it to you? That's great.

We can. But who? Your friend Gareth? Sure. But Rebecca, is there somebody that you could tell your husband? My blank sent this to me that you could tell them about it. Yeah, I think my brother. So have your brother send it to you and then you forward it to Chris. And then just say like, hey, FYI, this is pretty crazy stuff, but it's not getting out there because it's hard to push anything real past the media. And he'll go like, that's crazy about milk.

And you could say like, I know like the Hubermans and all them, they're all really anti-milk. Pigglies. I like it. This is a win. Okay, good. Thanks for saying it that way. Ring the goddamn bell. So then do us a favor and keep us updated. Send us a screen grab of the email. We'll block out everybody's name, his response. And if he has a rebuttal, we'll make another clip rebutting what he's saying.

But I think this, I think we will die for this cause. We can get you out of this situation. It just might take a couple of follow-ups. Sure. I appreciate it, you guys. All right. Well, we're here to help. We're here to help. I mean, this is what we do. All right. Thank you, Rebecca. Thank you. Thank you. Bye-bye. Oh, shark in the garf, man. Ooh, wait a second. Do we all, can we just call him Shark? Shark.

Can we get, I mean, obviously, Gardetto shark, the fucking shark. Someone tagged me today with a holding Gardettos and said, thinking of you. Those were so, I forgot how good Gardettos are. Yeah, they're awesome. Uh,

Thank you guys for sticking with us for this. This was the hundredth episode. We're doing a little outro to say thanks. Yep. Shark, what do you got? I want to thank our amazing crew who makes the show possible. AJ, John, Josh, Caitlin, Leah has been extremely helpful.

with all the merch and the website and everything. And my buddy Wes, who you guys met at the last second, was helping set up all the video and the lighting and the camera, made the stream all possible. Couldn't have done it without him. And yeah, it was a ton of fun. And my buddy Eli, who officiated the wedding, who built that custom desk that you guys were seated at, built it all from scratch. The studio literally did not exist a month ago. It was just a plot of land. So it's been a crazy month.

Yeah. And so I'm super grateful to everyone who helped me put it together and our crew that made the live stream and all 100 episodes. Fantastic. So and a big thank you to every single person who has called into our show. Absolutely. And taken the chance and dealt with what's happened in your real life and the anxiety of being on the call with us. You guys make this show great.

So, you know, here's to 100 and the next 100. Let's see what we can do and see if we can improve the show and have even more fun. Yep. Agreed. We're going to do more of those. So it's very exciting. So thank you again.
