Joshua (00:34.905)

Joshua (04:03.664)

See, I'm like, yeah.

Joshua (04:09.293)

Hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe

Joshua (04:14.989)

Horse and wagon, you know smoke signals Yeah, I'm still I'm still in that age. I haven't caught up to the digital world yet when it comes to work

Sean (04:16.654)

I'm out.

Joshua (04:26.473)

Yeah, I'm pretty behind. But it'll be fine though. I mean, my three day weekend's gonna be nice. So we'll figure something out. Maybe go to the movies, the beach, depending on the weather.

Sean (04:31.164)

But no...

Sean (04:35.157)

Yeah.

There you go, see?

Sean (04:42.078)

But as far as, yeah, we didn't really do anything. Like we haven't done anything, just working, man. Always working. Oh, and then I got this cold right now, like just getting over a cold, so it's like, ugh. But it's like the second time in a row I've been like sick, like week after week. It's very annoying.

Joshua (04:50.163)

out.

Joshua (05:01.209)

Do you think it's a cold or allergies because a ton of people down here have allergies or not everybody's sniffling people are just the dry eyes

Sean (05:09.628)

Mm-hmm. It's weird because I have never had allergies, and I know you can develop them like later on, but I don't know. For me it feels like a cold because I have a cough too, so...

Who knows? Maybe I'm just dying.

Joshua (05:24.951)

Yeah. Yeah, a bunch of people are getting allergies down here right now. So I don't, I don't know. I rarely ever get sick. It's pretty rare. So sometimes I don't know if it's allergies or it's a cold or I don't know, but

Yeah.

Sean (05:45.046)

What can you do man? Just use that uh, use them days off.

Sean (05:56.382)

Um, all right, Joshua, let's, let's talk about our topic today.

Joshua (06:01.776)

I know you gave me homework

Sean (06:03.886)

so excited. So if all goes right, this should come out the first week of October. Hopefully, we'll find out. But because of that, you know, it's Halloween season, Joshua, it's spooky time. So I was gonna do a brief history of Halloween, but I think a lot of people already kind of know the gist of where it came from and stuff.

Joshua (06:29.591)

I don't.

Sean (06:31.934)

Okay, all right, let's get to it then. So the Halloween holiday, Joshua, has its roots in ancient Celtic, oh in the ancient Celtic festival of Samharan, and it is pronounced Sah-hwin. Oh interesting.

Joshua (06:56.481)

I think you fucked that up.

Sean (06:58.066)

Oh, I totally fucked that up, you know, but I'm going to continue reading anyway. Uh, it is a pagan religious celebration to welcome the harvest at the end of summer. Uh, when people light bonfires and wear costumes to ward off ghosts. So that is an excerpt from the library of Congress. So that is a legitimate source. All right. So if I fucked up, they fucked up. All right. Just saying.

Joshua (07:24.897)

So how do we adopt that here though? I get it, so how did all of a sudden handing out candy and so how did that make its way over here?

Sean (07:34.694)

I can answer that. The custom of Halloween came to America in the 1840s with Irish immigrants fleeing a potato famine. At the time, the favorite pranks in New England included tipping over outhouses and unhinging fence gates. Um, hang on, I will read more as soon as I find out where this came from.

Joshua (07:53.35)

Shit.

Sean (08:03.662)

because you know, all of the facts come from Google. Everything on the internet is 100% factual. All right. As I continue here, the custom of trick or treating is thought to have Irish origins, possibly from a practice going door to door to collect money and cake or any other custom begging for soul cakes or offerings for one's dead relatives.

Joshua (08:07.887)

Because everything on the internet is true, right? We've established that.

Sean (08:34.358)

failure to supply a tree would result in a practical joke.

Sean (08:41.106)

So it really...

Sean (08:47.133)

I'm trying to see if it has anywhere where...

Sean (08:52.844)

Um, here's a fun fact. In the United States, the first official citywide Halloween celebration occurred in Arcana, Minnesota in 1921, Joshua.

Joshua (09:03.057)

It's actually not that old then. Yeah.

Sean (09:05.546)

Not that old at all. Yeah. So it's actually pretty cool.

Sean (09:14.434)

there is stuff on jack-o-lanterns but not all see this might be one of those things where it's been going on for a while and nobody kind of knows the origins of it

Sean (09:28.31)

see because that says right

Joshua (09:28.749)

So, so the Halloween, so we got Halloween, right? So where do all the stories come from? Like the Headless Horseman and, you know, like all of those types of Halloween stories. So those derive from around the 1800s or did that show up around the 1920s? Or like how old are these stories? Because the Headless Horseman, isn't that a Halloween story?

Sean (09:47.394)

That's a great question. I would assume it's a Halloween story. I mean, it feels like a Halloween story.

Joshua (09:56.321)

Cause doesn't he ride around with a jack-o-lantern as his head? Or did that just kind of like transition to Halloween as Halloween became a jack-o-lantern thing?

Sean (10:01.196)

I mean that

Sean (10:07.886)

Mm-hmm. See, that's the way I know him. Like, um, so...

Sean (10:19.502)

Okay, well, according to Free Range American. dot us. Although the headless horseman is often trumpeted as America's first ghost story, the tale borrows heavily from several European storytelling traditions. Traditional folklore is actually swarming with decapitated writers. So apparently there is a lot, but it is connected to the

collection of fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm. So those guys wrote a lot of things and It seems to have some origin in that so there you go, so If you want to put an age on it

Sean (11:07.123)

gotta be pretty old.

Sean (11:11.982)

Let's see.

Sean (11:16.258)

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say like, older than you and I, Joshua. Like by like three.

Joshua (11:20.788)

Mm-hmm.

I want to know statistically, since like, was there a rise in cavities after candy and all, like, is this one of those things where like dentists secretly created this holiday like, yes, if we create this thing where the bunch of candy is going to be handed out, there's going to be a spike in cavities, dental health. Is there a conspiracy there? Theory there? Can we look, you know, can we look into that?

Sean (11:33.388)

That's a good one.

Sean (11:48.142)

Thanks for watching.

Sean (11:52.17)

you know what there probably is a conspiracy let's see the question is asked do cavities increase after Halloween and the answer

Sean (12:05.014)

marketing reports indicate that nearly 25% of annual candy sales are generated during the season following right and Dentists to report an abnormally high number of dental decay and cavities immediately after Halloween Which just makes sense right like you can't have candy and not You know get a cavity it just happens. It's just gonna happen

Joshua (12:17.424)

See?

Joshua (12:32.521)

I wonder if I could become a seasonal dentist Yeah Exactly like a base off of that statistic I'm gonna be like I'm gonna be a dentist between these months cuz I know I'm just gonna have a bunch of work you know, but on my garage do some like bad male practice and just Pull out that Dewalt drill I bought at the freaking flea market like come on You know, let's work on your little

Sean (12:36.907)

like seasonal workers who work at the Spirit Halloween

Sean (12:47.406)

Ha ha

Sean (13:01.787)

Alright, let me fill in that cavity for you, buddy. Come on down. Ha ha ha.

Joshua (13:04.533)

Yeah, this little JB Weld.

Joshua (13:09.301)

You know, it's what's...

Sean (13:10.798)

You got 1500 pounds of pressure that you can put on that molar now.

Joshua (13:16.049)

I know I got I got a crown put in and I'm actually really nervous about it.

Sean (13:20.05)

What you're getting a crown put in here? You're you have it. Oh, you have a crown inside there already. Oh, how recent? Are we talking like yesterday?

Joshua (13:21.341)

No, no, I have one. I have a crown. I got I got one put in recently. Yeah.

Mmm, no. Three months old, three months, something like that. Yeah, three or four more. It's it's pretty new, but because I've never had them before, I'm actually fairly nervous about it. You know, like what I can and cannot true chew. Because it's not real. It's like it's fake, too, you know, like.

Sean (13:35.002)

Oh, so pretty recent.

Sean (13:44.611)

Why though?

Oh, got it, got it, okay. Well, your real tooth's still underneath there. It's just they put that cap over it. So I guess that part is fake. Yeah, you're right.

Joshua (13:54.775)

Yes.

Sean (14:02.206)

They didn't tell you anything? They didn't tell you like no Halloween candy?

Joshua (14:06.793)

No, no, I mean I I've never been one for Halloween candy, which is I guess a decent segue to like favorite Halloween candy I don't I mean is there I was trying to I was thinking about this Is there such thing as a as Halloween specific candy, you know, like I know in easter time They come out those nasty ass marshmallow Rabbits, I still don't know who eats those things

Sean (14:17.506)

Yeah, look at you on the segways.

Sean (14:34.114)

candy corn. Psychopaths.

Joshua (14:36.673)

Honestly, the shelves are always full whenever I go by. Like there's always a clearance sale after, you know? Like nobody wants those damn things. Like who's making those? But I mean, I guess one of those things a little, you probably know what they are, the things that are shaped like little candy corn, yeah.

Sean (14:44.412)

Yeah.

Sean (14:52.834)

candy corn yeah candy corn would probably be the ultimate like this is a Halloween specific like candy

Oh, and then those like, fucking rubber lips, like the rubber lips that look like vampires. Those are specifically Halloween.

Joshua (15:17.377)

Do you eat those though? Are those actually a candy or are those just like a wax thing? It's more for like a cosplay type shit.

Sean (15:21.458)

up people eat them people eat them i'm telling you it's the same people who are eating the peeps those are the people who are eating those

Joshua (15:31.073)

Hehehehe

Joshua (15:35.337)

I'm actually writing down candy corn. Um, cause I, like, I have this little list over here. I'm like, what is Halloween candy? And I want to write this down.

Sean (15:47.422)

Oh, actually, Joshua, let me throw a curveball at you. And now that we went over some of the, you know, the Googled Halloween facts and some worst brief history of Halloween ever, do you have any memory of like a costume that you wore as a child?

Joshua (16:07.069)

Yes, I do. I do. Mm hmm. I do. So so as a child, I didn't we didn't really have a whole lot of money. We weren't really like I wouldn't say poor. But when you have five kids, you know, your dad works as a butcher. Your mom just kind of does accounting, you know, back in the day, we didn't really have a whole lot of money. So we had to get creative. So.

Sean (16:08.534)

Do you? Oh, now I'm intrigued.

Joshua (16:32.993)

One of my fun costumes was I played baseball regularly, like every season as a kid, T-ball, far, I always played baseball. So we got creative one year and I used my own baseball team outfit, you know, like what I would wear every Saturday and Sunday to go play games. We basically threw fake blood all over it and put blood all over my face and they walked around the neighborhood with a bat just like.

Sean (16:48.439)

Mm.

Sean (16:51.905)

Yeah.

Oh no, nice.

Sean (16:59.408)

Hmm. Ha ha ha!

Joshua (17:01.857)

You know, just looking like a bloody baseball player. Yeah, so that was pretty creative, I thought, like where we didn't really already had the outfit. You know, I already had the costume, I guess you could say. So that was, yeah, that, you know, walking around with a real bat too, it was pretty, it was fun. It was kind of a little shit back then. Yeah, and I would actually hit shit. Like I'd walk around and hit things with it.

Sean (17:05.346)

Good.

Sean (17:15.959)

That's pretty cool. That's a good one.

Sean (17:25.545)

People give you weird looks.

Sean (17:29.634)

Oh my god. Of course you would.

Joshua (17:32.929)

Yeah, so like mailboxes and shit. They're like dude this kid's a terror like take the bat away from the kid So that one was fun the other one that we got really creative with again when I was super young was We just had a birthday. I forget whose birthday was it's like my brother's or somebody like so we had a bunch of leftover balloons So what we ended up doing is we blew up a bunch of balloons and we taped them completely around my entire body

Sean (17:35.774)

Hahaha

Sean (17:39.526)

Oh my god, Joshua.

Joshua (18:02.621)

So I was like a walking balloon bag. Like if you could imagine just like just balloons covering my body. But one of the funny things about it is as I was walking around, the fucking balloons were popping all over the place. So, so I remember this one time specifically walked underneath this tree. It was one of those pine needle trees.

Sean (18:14.547)

Thank you.

Joshua (18:27.901)

And as I walked under this tree, I kid you not, like half of the balloons on my fucking costume just blew up. So half of my body like had balloons and the other half of my body had all these deflated looking fucking rubber things just hanging off my body. Yeah, so by the end of the night it was kind of like, what is this? It's still like a costume regardless because I just look like, you know, but that was probably two of my most creative.

Sean (18:31.65)

Hahaha

Sean (18:50.43)

Yeah, yeah. Yeah.

Sean (18:57.607)

Oh, that's amazing.

Joshua (18:58.129)

um costumes and then a third one if you want to if you want a third one um i don't know if you remember the movie uh dead presidents do you remember that one bank robbers dead presidents yeah and so you remember how they dressed up um they did the you know the black and white face you know right before they robbed the banks

Sean (19:01.614)

That's great.

Sean (19:10.618)

I do. Oh yeah, I do. Yeah.

Sean (19:21.942)

Yes.

Joshua (19:24.469)

So it was around the time I rode BMX. And so we basically like blacked our faces out and did like our half white, half black, we just, yeah. And we rode around town again with baseball bats. There was a theme with bats and just, yeah. So that was from childhood to men as teenager to adults, three hole punch gym, you know, the, the whole.

Sean (19:29.976)

Oh no.

Sean (19:36.291)

Oh my god, Josh, you're a menace.

Sean (19:45.87)

Jeez.

Sean (19:49.934)

Yeah, at least you're creative about it. I mean, three great creative costumes. I mean, who? That's awesome. That's awesome.

Joshua (19:56.117)

Yeah.

Joshua (20:01.037)

Yeah, that's pretty good. And not having any money. I mean, you got to get creative like around the house. Like what, what do you do? You know,

Sean (20:04.522)

Yeah, oh yeah.

See, like for me, it was like, I mean, it's kind of same idea, right? We didn't have a lot of money growing up. But my birthday is the day before Halloween. So for me, it was like, we'd have a party like every time and it would always be a Halloween party. And the ones that I can remember the most were two specifically. One was when I was like, probably, I wanna say like six or five, five or six.

Um, and we, I was dressed as Casper, um, with like this, like, like just like dollar store, like Casper suit, like it was like felt. And I just remember it being really itchy and getting put into a costume contest and like not winning and just being like, why, why am I here? Like I don't remember ever asking for this. I don't remember like wanting to join this costume contest.

Joshua (20:41.953)

Hehehe...

Joshua (20:58.989)

No idea.

Sean (21:08.278)

It was one of those things where like you're a kid and your mom just kind of does this for you. So it's like, yeah, good luck. Let's see what happens. And so I remember that one. And then I remember, um, like at the age of like, I think it was probably, I was older than I was older. I was probably like nine or 10. And this is like, it still haunts me to this day. So it was like a party. I don't remember what I was specifically, but the only reason I remember this was because I was in a garbage bag.

for my costume. I don't remember what it was, but I remember bobbing for apples in our garage for like my birthday. And like my head is underwater and I'm bobbing for these apples. And the only thought that comes into my head is I'm going to die soon. Like I'm older and I'm going to die. And I'm bobbing for apples right now. And I just had that realization. And then I like took my head out of the water. And I was like, I think I'm good now. I think I'm just going to sit here.

and like just wait for everybody to leave. Yeah, I was like, yep. I was like, I think I was 10 years old. And there you go, that was my most memorable Halloween moments.

Joshua (22:22.063)

It's funny how growing up like thinking back at it, you're like, did your parents really think that you were going to love that? Did they really think you were going to enjoy that? You know?

Sean (22:32.522)

Wow, they probably, knowing my parents, they probably did. They probably did think I was enjoying that.

Joshua (22:37.653)

Shit man, cause it's... Like I know I had fun, like when I was in Mike Austin's and I was in it, like I genuinely had fun doing that. Getting candy and going around and... Man, I can't imagine like... Not... Enjoying it. You know, feeling that pressure of like, I gotta dress up, I gotta go somewhere, this is uncomfortable. You know, like... Ugh.

Sean (22:39.042)

Hehehe

Sean (22:54.881)

Hehehehehehe

Sean (23:00.351)

Mm-hmm. Yeah. And that's why who I, that's who I am now. That's exactly the reason why right there. You know, you grew up too quickly because you were bobbing for apples.

Joshua (23:11.281)

But you like dressing up now though, don't you? Don't you enjoy that process? Yeah.

Sean (23:13.458)

Oh, I love it. I love it. I do love it. I do love it. And I think probably next week, we'll talk about it because I want to talk because we have a Disney trip planned for October for Halloween, because you know, keeping the tradition alive, celebrating my birthday, doing a Halloween party going down to Disneyland. But we're dressing up for that. And so we'll talk I'll talk about it next week. Give no spoilers.

Joshua (23:26.667)

Mm-hmm.

Joshua (23:36.725)

Yeah, it's funny. My mom just told me she's planning on going to Disney in October. Yeah, I guess she's getting a, I guess she's getting like a two bedroom too. She's, she's planning it right now. Yeah. So she's like, do you guys want to go? Because she has that, you know, the also sketchy timeshares that, yeah, so she's got that. So she's in one of those, but yeah, so she's going to go. I don't know the dates yet, but who knows?

Sean (23:41.718)

What? When? Am I gonna go hang out with your mom?

Sean (23:48.193)

Sheesh!

Sean (23:52.718)

Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Sean (24:04.238)

Damn it. Well, shoot. Finally, that's your new homework. Find out next week when Josh from Saman is going to go to Disneyland.

Joshua (24:12.99)

Yeah, because with the time share, I guess it's already paid for and all that.

Sean (24:17.215)

I'm even better.

Joshua (24:18.709)

Yeah, it'll be nice to, it would be. I've never been to Disneyland or on Halloween. Do you guys go to both sides? Do you go to California, do you guys do both sides? Where you go?

Sean (24:26.622)

Mm hmm. I think you're Oh yeah, for sure. And we'll do like we have a whole itinerary going on right now. But yeah, we'll do DCA and then we'll do Disneyland. And now they're serving controversial topic right now, Joshua. They're serving alcohol and some of the restaurants in Disneyland. And so now it's like you can kind of drink, not around the like around the park, but it's like you can drink at different restaurants.

So it's like, we can get kind of sloshed now.

Joshua (24:58.981)

Yeah, yeah. Hmm. A bunch of drunk adults around a bunch of kids. Should be fun.

Sean (25:05.518)

That's what I'm saying buddy. I'm saying if their feet touch the ground, they're prime for kicking, okay?

Sean (25:20.41)

Anyways, Joshua, give me your top three Halloween candies if you thought about it.

Joshua (25:20.647)

That's hilarious.

Joshua (25:26.257)

I didn't. I have candy corn. That's what I wrote down as my third worst because I would never eat candy corn.

Sean (25:34.112)

No, I want your top three, your good candies, not your bad ones.

Joshua (25:37.15)

But that's the thing is what is a Halloween candy? Like I don't know what a Halloween candy is.

Sean (25:42.29)

So I did have this discussion with some of the coworkers here, because I was asking them their top three candies and stuff. And so the question was asked, what is a Halloween candy? And the definition I have for Halloween candy is anything that you were looking forward to when you went trick-or-treating and you opened up your little candy bag.

Joshua (26:05.633)

Got it. Okay.

Sean (26:08.782)

So I'll let you think about it. I'll tell you my top three. So I'll start with the bottom. So my number three is gonna be the caramel apple pops. Do you know these things? So they are a lollipop that have caramel or caramel. And in the middle of that is like a tart green, just lollipop, like apple flavored lollipop.

Joshua (26:36.821)

I know what that is. I do, those are really good. Those are good.

Sean (26:38.146)

Delicious, delicious. I love them. Awesome, beautiful. The only problem, they get stuck to your teeth. And if you're old like me, you have some fillings that may be loose. And so eating them now is an adrenaline rush. So. Where are you? Yeah. Is today the day I'm gonna lose on my fillings? I don't know. We'll find out.

Joshua (26:45.901)

Hmm.

Joshua (26:56.941)

It's like Russian roulette with your teeth.

Joshua (27:04.877)

That's always fun, you're chewing on a piece of gum, like what's that hard thing you pull out the gum and you see a piece of silver in you, like you think you fucking just found treasure, and it's really your tooth?

Sean (27:08.118)

Oh, yep. You're freaking filling falling out. Jesus. So you know, that's the road I'm on right now, Joshua. So I'll be there shortly. So my number two candy is this the top two that I have were ones that I had to think about for a little bit. So I finally came down.

Joshua (27:15.478)

Yeah. That was me before I got my crown.

Joshua (27:24.531)

Hahahaha

Sean (27:35.67)

to the wire and I was like, you know what, if I had to choose, my second one is going to be KitKats. I love a KitKat. Like I love a KitKat just in general. Like I will make love to a KitKat. Like they are, they are delicious. And it was one that if I ever saw it in my bag, I was like, all right, I will trade my brother or sister for all of their KitKats. So.

Joshua (27:49.506)

Yeah.

Joshua (28:05.925)

gonna throw out that if you're gonna make love to anything it might as well your Reese's because you could poke a damn hole right through the middle of that thing just go to town

Sean (28:12.687)

No, see for me it's all about the sandpaper finish, Joshua. That's what I like. You know, I like that. I like the texture that rough and raw, you know? Really getting it.

Joshua (28:16.445)

Oh, you like the texture.

Joshua (28:23.849)

Yeah.

Sean (28:27.443)

And my number one Halloween candy is the Twix bar. You can't go wrong with a simple Twix, you know? Caramel, chocolate, cookie. I am more of a left Twix guy myself, but I will take right Twix, you know?

Joshua (28:51.109)

I've heard this debate the left or the right. It's similar to the debate with Snickers. It's like ice cream Snickers or not ice cream Snickers. Yeah.

Sean (28:58.918)

Oh ice cream snickers all the way Joshua on a hot day nothing beats an ice cream snickers delicious

Joshua (29:04.333)

I just, we just bought some of those too.

Sean (29:07.79)

No, go ahead and send me some, just send it through the screen, I'll take them.

Joshua (29:09.029)

ice cream. They're gone now. They're completely gone.

Sean (29:15.667)

Alright, well I guess I can eat it from the other end.

Joshua (29:19.113)

I'm cheating. I'm cheating right now. Yeah, I'm cheating. Well, because I... Yeah, I'm cheating.

Sean (29:21.666)

Are you looking are you looking up some candies right now? Trying to get an idea?

It's hard, man. I had to think about it for like a good, solid week. Like after we left the last episode, I had to think about what. What it was, what, what my tops were.

Joshua (29:39.917)

So a hundred Halloween candies. Like the candy challenge. Like I know what candies I like.

Sean (29:47.863)

Mm.

Joshua (29:49.377)

It's just, I just, I'm just trying to determine.

What is, yeah, I overanalyze, like, I mean, you know me, I overanalyze everything, like, it's not that difficult to really, you know, figure it out. Because according to this, the top 10 candies in America, according to candystore.com, yeah, I know, right? I've never even heard of them. It was, I don't know, is Eminem's Starburst.

Sean (30:06.658)

You just gotta...

Sean (30:14.611)

reputable.

Sean (30:23.79)

Okay, interesting.

Joshua (30:25.833)

would never thought this one the hot tamales, sour patch kids, Hershey kisses, snickers, tootsie pops, and the very last one is candy corn.

Sean (30:29.346)

Hot tamales!

Sean (30:35.122)

Okay.

Sean (30:39.246)

Ew. How is candy corn still on? The only... I think the only reason candy corn's still on there is just because they use it as decoration and you need a lot of it. You know what I mean? You're not eating that shit.

Joshua (30:50.685)

Yeah, I mean according to candystore.com.

Sean (30:52.234)

And if you are eating that shit, please put that in the comments that you're eating. You're eating candy corn and there is nothing wrong with you.

Joshua (31:00.061)

I don't know how many people really are going to be eating that. I would be, I would be surprised to hear somebody actually eats them and enjoys them. There, cause there's a difference. Like, you know how you eat your mom's food, but you don't really enjoy it. Like when you go over to grandma's house and she loves candy corn, she hears honey. And she has a bowl of it and she puts it in your face. Like grandma's candy corn, even though it's three years old, cause nobody ever eats it. And how many hands have been in that? There's probably just

Sean (31:10.077)

Yeah.

Sean (31:13.475)

Yes, yes

Sean (31:19.574)

Ugh.

Joshua (31:29.193)

It's old, right? So you're you have some of grandma's candy. Nobody's eating it. But I don't. Nobody's eating that. I'll be very surprised. So if I'm going with mine. I.

Sean (31:43.31)

Mm-hmm.

Joshua (31:47.177)

my top three. I love I mean as my first one would probably be Snickers just because I love Snickers and the bite-sized one I mean that yeah Snickers is always pretty good. Reese's is a sugary treat I would probably rock there I'd go with the Reese's.

Sean (31:54.002)

Okay, solid choice.

Sean (31:58.263)

Mm-hmm.

Sean (32:05.678)

Okay, alright.

Joshua (32:07.557)

Um, and then, so Snickers, Reese's.

Sean (32:14.826)

And you can also fuck the recess as you stated earlier.

Joshua (32:19.636)

Who hasn't licked the center out of a fucking Reese's? You know what I mean? This nasty little kid just sucking the peanut butter right out of the middle of that thing, you know?

Sean (32:21.664)

Hahahaha

Sean (32:28.458)

You know, I always tried to get all the chocolate off of the Reese's, like, as a child, and I still kind of do, but I know that it's impossible now. But you know, have you ever tried to, like, take off the chocolate? Yeah. Yeah, it was always a fun pastime.

Joshua (32:38.293)

Yeah, chew around it. Yeah.

Joshua (32:43.681)

I do that with the snickers too. Sometimes I'll eat around it like that Mm-hmm. Yeah No, it is it is

Sean (32:49.558)

Really? That seems more difficult. I'm impressed.

Joshua (32:56.745)

So for a third one though, what would I pick for a third one? I think I would have to go with you on the Twix. Twix is a pretty solid candy choice. Yeah, I'll go for that.

Sean (33:04.558)

Okay. Yeah, another solid choice. Yeah. All right, there you go. Very nice. Now this leads to the next discussion, Joshua. What about the top three worst candies?

Joshua (33:13.793)

Those would be my three.

Joshua (33:23.069)

Ooh, candy corn.

Sean (33:24.854)

Definitely candy corn. It's up there. Candy corn is garbaggio. We've already shed on candy corn a lot. Ha ha.

Joshua (33:26.217)

Yeah.

Joshua (33:32.761)

Candy corn is not making the cut if they could make a candy corn. That's good Like maybe they dust it with some sour, you know powder or they do

Sean (33:35.054)

No.

Sean (33:40.822)

You think that's what's safe in it? You think sour like, what is that? A fucking citric acid. You think that's the difference maker?

Joshua (33:49.933)

Mm-hmm either that or you dust it with some chamoy, you know some freaking if anybody knows what chamoy is, you know You know, but you throw some chamoy on it you uh Like maybe dusting hot Cheetos. I don't know

Sean (33:53.806)

Oh, sheesh. A spicy treat.

Sean (34:05.788)

I don't know if that would be make I don't know if that would make it better hot cheeto dust on that

Joshua (34:11.762)

Yeah, like how do you make a candy corn better? I'd have to really

Sean (34:16.666)

I mean, you'd have to maybe like you put it in a brownie. See, like you can't you can't have, you know, you can't just have candy corn on itself, you have to put it with something in order for it to like mask its candy corn flavor.

Joshua (34:20.525)

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Joshua (34:33.009)

I gotta be honest with you, all this talk about candy corn, I don't even remember what it tastes like. Am I just being b-

Sean (34:38.03)

That's because it's suppressed. It's your memories. They don't want you to ever remember that, that trauma that happened to you the first time you ate a candy corn.

Joshua (34:45.93)

What does it taste like?

Sean (34:48.096)

shit

Joshua (34:50.937)

Is it like buttery? Is it like... What is the flavor?

Sean (34:54.139)

You want me to describe the taste of a candy corn to you?

Joshua (34:57.749)

Yeah, what is? I mean, I could Google that too, but like, yeah, how do you describe that? I don't know.

Sean (34:59.947)

I got out of it.

Sean (35:04.83)

I will tell you right now. Give me a second, all right? Just give me a moment. Okay, candy corn is a wonderful blend of creamy, fondant, rich marshmallow, and warm vanilla notes. When these flavors combine, they create the distinctive candy corn flavor.

Joshua (35:19.379)

Oh god.

Joshua (35:31.861)

Yeah. They built that thing of like it was a super hero, some shit.

Sean (35:32.01)

There you go. I think it tastes like shit.

Sean (35:40.674)

really, really selling that candy corn flavor to you, buddy.

Joshua (35:44.058)

Yeah, like when all the Power Rangers come together and it just made that ultimate Power Ranger bot like that was not no wax coke bottles.

Sean (35:53.659)

I think realistically candy. Oh, wax coke bottles.

Joshua (35:58.365)

worst Halloween candy wax coke bottles I remember those

Sean (36:02.842)

Yeah, you know what, put that on the list. That is definitely a terrible one. That is gross. I just have a memory of like just eating, like pulling off the top from that and then like just having this nasty wax filled mouth flavor. Candy corn and wax Coke bottles. There you go. It's fucking two of them.

Joshua (36:06.285)

wax coke bottles. I forgot about those.

Joshua (36:24.803)

Ehhhh...

Joshua (36:30.17)

Are those teeth? I was like, oh, those are the teeth right there. There's a 41 count you can buy on Amazon.

Sean (36:33.999)

See, I still...

get some teeth right now. 41 of them.

Joshua (36:41.243)

Yeah, you can get a 41 count of the waxed teeth.

Sean (36:47.143)

Nasty.

Joshua (36:48.897)

You got me looking up candy now. Hmm.

Sean (36:50.75)

See, this is gonna be an experiment, Joshua. You gotta order some teeth. Let us know how they taste. Get some candy corn.

Joshua (37:00.261)

Oh, random tangent. Have you ever tried Death Wish coffee?

Sean (37:04.225)

I don't drink coffee Joshua, you know that, so no. But remember we had a coworker back home who would drink that stuff religiously.

Joshua (37:05.597)

Oh, that's right, you know.

Joshua (37:14.665)

Yeah, it's actually I just bought some. It really is intense. It's good. It's good, though, but I've had to

Sean (37:23.922)

Is that what's keeping you up tonight? Like drinking all that coffee?

Joshua (37:28.561)

Yeah, I'll probably have some before I go to work. I got a Red Bull, I got some Death Wish coffee, I'll probably do a cold brew. But man, it's got a lot of caffeine in it. It's pretty, anybody who really needs to pick me up, Death Wish coffee and your coffee drinker probably just try it because it may be a game changer for you.

Sean (37:38.259)

You're gonna be shaking.

Sean (37:56.358)

Not sponsored by the way, so if you guys want to sponsor us, go ahead and shoot me an email. Is it good though? Does it taste good is the question.

Joshua (38:01.125)

Yeah, yeah. That are. Yeah, I tried the was it the vanilla? It's a blueberry vanilla, something like that. It comes in a blue bag. It's it's actually pretty tasty for grocery. Al had it, so I thought I'd try it.

Sean (38:19.318)

Oh, not bad. Okay. Grocery outlet. I love grocery outlet, man. Like, you can always find some cool stuff. Yeah, it goes straight through me. Like, it's a problem. So, and I know, like, it goes straight through a lot of people, but it's like, if you build your tolerance, it's supposed to help you and whatnot, but I was like, eh, I'm not a fan.

Joshua (38:22.441)

Yeah. Why don't you drink coffee? It just is it hard on the bowels? Are you not?

Joshua (38:41.929)

Not even the cold brew? You haven't even tried it like as a different form? You know?

Sean (38:46.81)

I've tried it in a few different forms and there's not one that I'm still like this is the way it should be kind of thing.

I don't know, maybe one day when I'm in like, I don't know, France or somewhere where they have like real high, like high quality beans or something. I'll give it a shot. But I mean, I guess you could say that I'm in Seattle. What is it the cow like coffee connoisseurs come all the way over here to have Starbucks coffee and I still don't care for it. And I've been to like the roast like the roast house they have out here. So just not a fan.

Joshua (39:26.481)

Yeah, the very what the very first Starbucks?

Sean (39:29.543)

Yeah, very for Starbucks, and then they also have the like big roast places like the reserves. That's what they come a reserve Starbucks reserves

I like the smell of coffee. Smells good.

Joshua (39:45.318)

I mean, I, I love coffee. I just Yeah.

Sean (39:50.626)

You're thinking about it right now, aren't you?

Joshua (39:52.997)

No, I'm actually thinking about the overnight I have to do tonight right now. In the back of my mind, I'm like, Jesus Christ, I don't want to. So I because I have the option side and the obviously. Yeah. But yeah, I can go in at nine or go in at seven. So obviously, I'm going to go in at seven. I'm not going to go in at nine. Yeah, I took a half get off at three thirty.

Sean (39:56.185)

Oh no.

Sean (40:04.878)

I did it. Yeah.

Sean (40:12.514)

Oh hell yeah dude, going at seven. Yeah, that's the way to do it. Fuck yeah, if that's the option, that's always the better choice. I mean, we were on the same departments here and it's like, what the fuck are you gonna be doing? What are you gonna do? Like, do you have a bunch of stuff in? Oh, did you? Did you really? Did you have a bunch of shit? Okay, you got doors coming in and stuff.

Joshua (40:21.473)

Yeah, I'm not.

Joshua (40:27.993)

I went hard last night. Yeah, I went hard. I probably work like nine pallets of doors.

just interior though those are just interior so tonight i'm gonna work x yeah no everything the six panel the shaker the everything flush everything yeah that was yeah tonight is

Sean (40:39.762)

Oh just interior damn solid cores solid cores you're working solid cores All right, damn I envy that

Sean (40:54.19)

All right, third, we need a third candy, Joshua. A third shitty candy. What's on that list? Yeah, third shit candy. We have candy corn. We have wax coax, both of which apparently we just dislike the taste of wax. There we go, I can speak.

Joshua (40:59.434)

A third shit candy?

Joshua (41:16.141)

Okay, we're gonna find out right now. What is the most disliked candy?

Sean (41:24.654)

It's gotta be something weird. It's gotta be something like, or maybe it's like peanut candy. Like, you know, cause people have like allergies to peanuts and stuff.

Joshua (41:24.83)

Citra.

Joshua (41:34.413)

So I didn't even know this was a thing, but there's one. There's one here. It says citrus peanuts.

Sean (41:42.734)

citrus peanuts. Wait, are you talking about circus peanuts?

Joshua (41:44.605)

I don't know what citrus-

Joshua (41:49.769)

I can't read. Yeah. Yeah, I can't read. Circus Euth.

Sean (41:53.666)

Circus peanuts are the devil. You are correct. That is a terrible candy. But I wouldn't describe that as a Halloween candy though. You know, you don't get circus peanuts as like, I mean, if you do you?

Joshua (42:04.261)

Citrus where there's not even a tea in there. What am I seeing citrus? Holy shit Joshua

Sean (42:10.734)

citrus, citrus peanuts.

Joshua (42:13.249)

There's not even a T in there. Where do I get citrus? I gotta put this monitor on the other. I gotta put this monitor over here. Because looking to my right is not... not it. I gotta look over this to the... yeah, this... I might have to... I might have to change the setup here. Put this monitor on the other side. Oh, what is the most unhealthy candy ever?

Sean (42:19.915)

Hahahaha

Sean (42:24.765)

Clearly that right eye needs glasses.

Sean (42:39.559)

Unhealthy is different though.

Joshua (42:41.258)

I know, yeah, I just saw that as a Google thing. I was like, what is it?

Sean (42:44.014)

Now you're down the rabbit hole, now I gotta know, people gotta know what is the most unhealthy candy.

Joshua (42:49.917)

Um, two X bars.

Sean (42:53.106)

Oh. That would explain a lot.

Sean (42:58.89)

Hahahaha

Joshua (43:00.031)

yeah it says just one fun size twix contains 250 calories 17 grams of sugar and 14 grams of total fat

Sean (43:13.046)

Yeah. All right. Well, yeah, that's, that's like not even a full size candy bar. That is a nibble of a Twix bar.

Joshua (43:16.141)

It's in a fun size too, that's a little one. That's not even.

Joshua (43:27.373)

highest ranked. What is the highest ranked? No, we don't want the highest ranked.

Sean (43:33.346)

That is another great question though. What is the highest rank candy? Is it still hot tamales?

Joshua (43:40.625)

Oh, my mom loves hot tamales. By the way, she loves those things. Yeah, she loves hot tamales.

Sean (43:44.398)

Really? Alright. If I see her in Disneyland, I will give her some hot tamales.

Joshua (43:53.361)

Yeah, waxed coke bottles is like candy corn. Circus peanuts, not citrus, Joshua.

Sean (44:03.065)

Circus Penis, yeah.

I'd still say Peeps is probably up there for the third, like, because realistically, because they do make, like, the Halloween themed, like, Peeps, you know? And I have seen people get those in their candy bags.

Joshua (44:21.877)

What are, what are neco waffles? N-E-C-C-O, oh wafers. Naco wafers? Naco, you know what those are?

Sean (44:26.806)

Are they like the...

Sean (44:32.074)

Oh, an echo wafers. Okay. I think they're like the little dot things.

Joshua (44:41.653)

Yeah, they almost look like

Sean (44:41.874)

Neko Wafers. You want me to describe the taste to you?

Joshua (44:48.632)

Please do.

Sean (44:49.93)

I will. All right. The Neko wafer, a truly unique flavor and texture. Some call it chalky, others say it's creamy. With licorice, lime, lemon, orange, clove, cinnamon, chocolate, and winter green flavors, the Neko wafer is truly a traditional candy. It is like a gross-ass version of a Smartie. That's exactly what it looks like.

Joshua (45:14.506)

No, but...

Joshua (45:19.026)

Nobody's eating that either.

Sean (45:19.198)

except nobody's eating this shit. This shit is someone you give your enemy.

Joshua (45:27.61)

How would that be mean if you just like at a party where all you did was put out this shitty candy Like every year just like you invited all your besties over and just always put out shit candy and And just from across the room you just you just looked at everybody like it was almost like a trolling moment You just observed everybody look at your table

Sean (45:33.695)

Shit candy

Sean (45:42.62)

That's awesome.

Sean (45:48.545)

Just watch them.

Joshua (45:54.437)

as they look at each other like who's gonna eat this shit yeah who loves the taste of chalk

Sean (45:58.37)

Who's got that Neko wafer right there?

Sean (46:03.254)

Hehehehe

Joshua (46:06.493)

Who wants a wax coke? You thirsty?

Sean (46:08.812)

Oh, dude. Oh, nasty. I would love that though. That would be like the ultimate like, you guys are my best friends. Like I want you to eat these candies with me. Like, you know, just a sign of like friendship.

Joshua (46:21.217)

put yeah just putting out shit like fun fact because you know

Joshua (46:34.405)

My sister keeps you know, they come over a lot, right? And needless to say, her best friend is either the couch or the toilet. So we stopped putting the best toilet paper in the door and downstairs.

Sean (46:38.118)

Mm-hmm, as they do, yeah.

Sean (46:48.959)

Oh no...

Oh no, Joshua. Have you gotten any complaints yet?

Joshua (46:56.859)

Is that okay? I guess that's a question. Is that is that rude to put in? You know the shitty one applied for your guest bathroom And put the good stuff in your master is that rude

Sean (47:10.715)

No.

Sean (47:14.158)

I don't think it is. I mean, they're not, I mean, yeah, they're over all the time. And they're not giving you any money for any of this, you know, like they ain't paying for the toilet paper. You're paying for the toilet paper. So if you want to put cheap ass toilet paper in there, I would say I'm all for it. You know, save yourself some money.

Joshua (47:26.487)

It's that.

Joshua (47:30.913)

It's like... Yeah, like, well, okay, so this is gonna be another thing. Is now that we've been doing that, I'm gonna pay attention to it if they're like, I'm gonna use the one upstairs now. I'm gonna use that one instead. I know you guys got three bathrooms in your house. This one down here, just, you know, I'm gonna pay attention to it. You know.

Sean (47:34.99)

Yeah.

Sean (47:43.342)

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

Sean (47:51.878)

see? Yeah, see? And then you got to start like, you just got to put it like you got to hide the good stuff now. You know, like, it's on a limited supply basis. It's a COVID run here, right? Like, you know, you don't get the good stuff anymore.

Joshua (48:07.965)

That is so, we were thinking about that. It was again, where we went to grocery outlet. It was just like, we saw it on the shelf. We're like, should we? You know, it was that moment of like, should we get this stuff? Because everybody hates shitty toilet paper, right? Nobody, unless you have to buy it.

Sean (48:10.039)

Hehehe

Sean (48:22.758)

Yeah, it breaks easy, goes through your fingers. Yeah.

Joshua (48:27.057)

You know, like nobody's really buying that stuff. And we did. And now it's in our guest bathroom. Just like the shitty candy on the table, you're gonna, this is gonna be an experiment. You know, will they continue to want to use the restroom as many times as normal? Or will they go, oh, I gotta go home.

Sean (48:34.254)

Hehehehe

Sean (48:42.318)

Hehehehehehe

Sean (48:46.298)

Oh, that's great. See, but you had to do the pre work first. Like, do you know how many times they use the restroom before you set out this toilet paper? You know?

Joshua (48:54.299)

Yeah, to me.

Sean (49:01.674)

Well, yeah, let me know how it goes. Follow up next week. We'll see. We'll see if there's a drop in a drop induces.

Joshua (49:09.097)

I mean, I feel like an asshole for admitting that. I feel like a dick. Like I on purpose, I might as well carve my sister in law just putting in the shitty.

Sean (49:17.942)

Hey, it's your house, all right? It's your house, you pay the mortgage. They don't pay for any of that, all right? You buy what you want.

Sean (49:29.513)

Just saying.

Joshua (49:31.373)

Yeah, I'm an asshole. It's okay. It's okay. Yeah.

Sean (49:34.9)

Maybe a little bit, yeah. Just a tiny bit.

Joshua (49:39.405)

But but to my defense I do have at the I Do have the consent of her sister. So She's totally on board with totally on board with the shitty telepapery down there. So not alone in this decision Literally they're gonna have to with that one ply We're gonna go from

Sean (49:48.614)

Okay, even better, see?

Sean (49:53.423)

There you go. Hey, you can wipe your hands clean. Alright, that's it. You're good.

Sean (50:04.386)

Yes, yes they are.

Joshua (50:08.085)

Shorted it to now the soaps always empty in the because it just got poo finger

Sean (50:13.908)

You have to trade one thing for another. Oh man, that's great, Joshua. That's fucking great. Listen, I don't want to go for too long. We're at 50 minutes here. We're almost at a goddamn hour. Can you believe that? A solid hour. I am utterly amazed that we can do this for so long and it did not feel that way.

Joshua (50:25.514)

Yeah.

Mm-hmm. I can.

Joshua (50:37.845)

Yeah, we just, I think we should start off running, you know? Like we have that build up and we just start off running instead of the slow trickle.

Sean (50:42.238)

Mm-hmm. Agreed.

Sean (50:50.346)

I like it. I do very much like it. You know, I was even like thinking to myself the other day at work. I was like, I Look forward to Tuesdays like now. Okay. I just want to talk to Joshua for a while. Like it's really nice Yeah Yeah, like it's great it's great you can't even like you can have a little bit of structure and like then all of a sudden it's like I

Joshua (51:04.853)

Cuz there's always gonna be a gym. There's always gonna be something in here that just gonna jump out at us

Sean (51:20.398)

That's great.

Joshua (51:21.819)

No.

Sean (51:25.682)

So, but before I let you go, Joshua, we'll go for about an hour here. Before I let you go, I wanna talk about the green texts, right? I found some that I wanted to read. I have two in particular. Let me load them up real quick.

Alright, I forgot what the title of this one was, Jesper, but I'm gonna read it to you.

Joshua (51:48.653)

These are fun boys and girls and they thems on Reddit.

Sean (51:54.09)

I think one of them is they them. Oh wait, I do have the title of this one. This one is called The Catalyst for Change. Alright. Here we go.

Joshua (52:05.825)

myself.

Sean (52:08.463)

Recently moved out. Kind of living in the ghetto, but it's okay because of cheap rent. Lots of crackheads are out at night being loud. Idea. Buy a drone with a speaker. Pay a voice actor on Fiverr to record a few lines. Fly the drone by the crackheads. Drone says, we've been monitoring you. Leave the restricted area immediately. Crackheads disperse.

Do this for a month straight. No more loud crackheads at night. Just renewed my rent. It's gone up by 30%.

Sean (52:48.13)

They solved the one problem to now have another problem. Joshua, how do you, how does that make you feel? Was that a smart idea? Did, should have done it differently.

Joshua (52:48.429)

Thanks for watching!

Joshua (52:57.421)

I say bring the crackheads back. Bring them back. You know, growing up, we as a kid, maybe bums are different now, or crackheads are different now, but we used to actually hang out with these people and you'd be surprised. You know, if you can connect with a crackhead or a homeless person and just, you know, vibe and chat with them, you might actually, they could be good for the neighborhood, you know, low rent.

Sean (53:01.522)

Yeah.

Sean (53:08.79)

I'm sorry.

Sean (53:27.166)

Okay, all right. I'm hearing the benefits. Let's go low rent. I'm a forward so far. Yeah

Joshua (53:30.578)

You know, you know, and it's actually is a form of security as well. There's always somebody awake. There's always somebody walking around. So, you know.

Sean (53:40.11)

I'll be somebody awake.

Joshua (53:46.454)

You have to befriend you have to befriend the night walkers I say befriend them

Sean (53:46.942)

Yes.

Sean (53:52.022)

You know, I-

Sean (53:57.507)

I mean, I agree with you on this because I feel like back before I lived.

Sean (54:07.702)

Like when I used to live in Salinas, there was just a regular homeless man who would live by the park. And because we lived by the park and we'd see him every day, we'd always say hi to him. Never caused no trouble, but he was homeless. And it's like, I see your points. Your points are valid. All right, he was probably up all night.

Joshua (54:31.797)

But there's two sides. You know, there's two sides of it, because you can have the real shady ones as well. So, just like neighbors, you got good neighbors, bad neighbors.

Sean (54:38.606)

True, very true. The ones who steal your catalytic converters.

Joshua (54:48.265)

So I ultimately I'm going to go, I'm going to give the homeless people as long as they're not breaking into things, as long as they're not, you know, shitting on your sidewalk and feeding weird things to your dog. Yeah. You got, you got, you got to respect them. Maybe help them. Maybe give them some food. Maybe all they need is a little hello. Every once in a while, you know,

Sean (54:59.194)

Yeah, respectfully, respectful homeless people. Yeah, I get it.

Sean (55:07.902)

Mm-hmm. Yeah, no, I feel you. I'm with you on that one. You know, like mental health is a big thing with homeless people. And it's like, sometimes you don't have the resources as a city to, you know, handle that correctly. So, kind of sucks that you fucking had them moved. I mean, I guess you didn't move them by force really. You know, like you didn't call the cops every day and like get them.

kicked out of their area they kind of just left on their own which is nice or like a nicer way of doing that but still good luck with your 30% rent raise

Joshua (55:46.657)

Ouch, you know, 30% is a lot. That is significant.

Sean (55:49.006)

Yeah, that is Jesus.

Sean (55:53.955)

Goddamn.

Joshua (55:56.417)

Bring him back.

Sean (55:58.396)

Uh, bring him back.

Sean (56:08.558)

Give me one second, I will find the other one.

Joshua (56:14.545)

I will say that we used to drink with homeless people back in the day. And yeah, yeah. Thinking about it now, I'm like, holy shit, we put there, we put our mouth on the same bottle that homeless guy did. Who knows what he was doing, you know, thinking about it now. We used to share bottles with it. Yeah.

Sean (56:20.579)

Really?

Sean (56:33.742)

Jesus. I am surprised you are still alive.

Joshua (56:39.421)

There was a few wall because they would buy it for us. So it's like you got to. Sorry. It's like you got to let him have a drink, right? We have a cover like, you know, like, gosh, they think it had all kinds of stuff, man. And we're just staring at the bottle with them. My goodness.

Sean (56:58.358)

Jesus. But I mean, see, case in point, you befriended him. He never hurt you. You know? Only respected you.

Joshua (57:06.173)

Yes. We actually had bums or I shouldn't say bums, you know, people who didn't have houses, homeless people, um, defend us when we would be out skateboarding on property and then like the security guards would come out. So we had a few homeless guys come up and be like, leave the fucking kids alone. They're just trying to have fun. You know, so here we are like kids having fun and we got this homeless dude in the security guard almost going to blows for us. So

Sean (57:20.967)

Really?

Joshua (57:31.781)

Again, there's a possibility to befriend and mutual respect.

Sean (57:38.974)

see that you know yeah I mean some of them yeah some of them just went through some hard times you know like maybe it's not all mental health issues maybe it's just like they probably just had a series of unfortunate events so respect the homeless unless they're being assholes then you know what fight fire with fire

Joshua (57:39.765)

with the community, it can be worked out.

Joshua (57:56.268)

Agreed.

Yeah. Our fight feces with feces.

Sean (58:04.45)

feces with feces baby. You know, there's a reason why stuff comes out of you. It's meant for throwing.

Alright, Joshua, this is the last one. I'm just gonna read it to you. Um... I'm not gonna read the title of it, because it'll spoil it. So I'm just gonna... I'm just gonna read it, and uh... Heh heh heh. Um, here we go. Be me. Take a shower. Use a shower gel that smells like mint. Decide to wash my balls. I can taste the mint through my balls. The taste is stronger in the area where the balls meet the asshole.

I have taste buds on my balls. Maybe this is due to a mutation. Am I an X-Men?

Sean (58:55.062)

Joshua, is he an X-Man? Have you had this experience? Have you ever had the taste of menthol come through your undercarriage?

Joshua (59:00.186)

I think he went.

Joshua (59:08.173)

It's not coming through unless you touch your balls and then you touch your mouth. I'm just gonna do that.

Sean (59:18.103)

100% facts.

Joshua (59:19.393)

Yeah, you're not you're not tasting what's on your balls if you're if you're not putting it back in your mouth, I promise you

Sean (59:27.407)

So you don't believe him then. You don't believe that this man has superpowers where he can taste through his taint essentially.

Joshua (59:35.289)

No, I think he just forgets the fact that he had his hand on his junk and then he goes puts his thumb on a piece of peanut butter and freaking puts it in his mouth or something.

Joshua (59:49.213)

I think this guy eats peanut butter with his fingers, man. I think he's... I think he's doing more with the... yeah. He's touching his nuts and then touching his mouth. There's no way around it. Yeah. Oh yeah.

Sean (01:00:02.415)

Okay, alright, we don't believe you. Sorry, you are not the X-Man, alright?

Sean (01:00:13.094)

Well there you go, Joshua. Episode 1 in the books. Next week we'll talk about our favorite movies for Halloween season. Top 3.

Sean (01:00:24.35)

Joshua will do a follow up with his mother to find out when she's going to Disneyland so we can deliver her the Redhuts.

Joshua (01:00:28.678)

Yeah, dizzy one.

Red hot and get some candy corn from grandma

Sean (01:00:36.099)

That's awesome. All right, thank you everybody for listening. We'll see you next week.
