00:01:10
Speaker
webcams that have lights on them. I know people at home like um ah I need to be seen as pale as I truly am. And I'm kind of in like I was going to say I look fine right now. The lighting in my room isn't as good as I would like it to be.
00:01:22
Speaker
um hey you know, at least you don't have like this evil half light going on. I tried to make that happen, actually. But I have a little lamp back there that's probably not doing as much work as I thought it was doing. But it's it's ah it's a placebo thing for me. But um anyway, are we live? Are we ready?
00:01:40

Reddit Questions and Humorous Rants
00:02:10
Speaker
And if you don't know what that means, it means that Dan and Dadom take your questions from the internet and answer them as if anybody cares, but sometimes they do. And that's the beauty of What we do, baby, is sometimes people do ask us questions every once in a while. Every once in a while.
00:02:27
Speaker
But other times people have no fucking idea that we're even doing it or that we even care to answer their question because I'm not answering questions on Reddit. What am i like go fucking what do What we look like? Look at his hands. What is a Reddit?
00:02:43
Speaker
That's crazy. That's absolutely. bor So anyway, we have questions from Reddit. Yeah, so I have questions from Reddit today, um but I want to share a quick, interesting out-of-body experience I had. and And it's not like this real big thing. I just had like a moment where I glanced into another universe, Danny, and I want to tell you about it because I laughed about it for a solid 10 minutes last night.
Humorous Stories and Technical Difficulties
00:03:05
Speaker
Okay, hang on one second. something My stream labs is falling apart. Oh, no, the stream is frozen. I can see it. Yeah. oh Oh, oh, Danny broke it. Oh, I'm trying. This is something that happens sometimes when you try to stream. Danny was early.
00:03:23
Speaker
He had his coffee. He's all showered. We were all set. We were all set. We were ready to go. That just goes to show that the best laid plans of Dan's and dad's often go awry. And I thats ah no do oh oh The best thing you can do is to, ah you know, improvise, be malleable, be flexible in your plans.
00:03:49
Speaker
um That's really, you know, what, what, what this is all about. um I think we're back. No, are we? Cause on my screen, it's just us laughing.
00:04:00
Speaker
I refreshed it and then it we died again. and um'm I'm trying to get the question up. That's what's breaking everything. Oh, no. It's not even like a hard thing I'm trying to do.
00:04:11
Speaker
Wow. Wowzers. Well, hey, listen, well, I'm going to tell my story anyway, and just the the people on the video are just going to miss the story. No, that's fine. They don't need it.
00:04:21
Speaker
So the audio people, you were here first, so you deserve the story. And so i had a moment. Yes. So my feet have been really sore. I ran a leg of a marathon. It was only like six and a half miles a couple of weeks ago.
00:04:35
Speaker
And it's not something I trained hard for. My body is not used to it. My shins are still a little sore now, if I'm being honest. My feet have been really sore, like more sore than usual when I run. And so I was worried that I did some real damage to it. So I've been like taking some precautions um to like try to make them feel better because like planter's fasciitis can be a thing.
00:04:55
Speaker
um So I'm trying to do, I learned the tennis ball trick. Boy, I tell you, you want a nice way to really massage your feet. I've never done it before, but I'm a Senate, put a, putting a tennis ball into your foot and just rolling
Foot Pain Remedies and Tie-Dye Adventures
00:05:06
Speaker
it around.
00:05:07
Speaker
Woo. Oh, wow. little Has actual like feet massager things that are like tennis balls, but they have, um, bumps on them, like ribs on it. Right. I've seen those. Yeah.
00:05:19
Speaker
Yeah. I haven't made any purchases yet, but after getting that, I might, uh, I could be convinced, you know, to, to do that. Um, so anyway, like I've been just kind of feeling it. Like I don't run enough to kind of develop those like quote unquote calluses.
00:05:34
Speaker
Um, um Oh, talking to the Louboutin right now. You need to get the show if you're going to keep showing up on the side. ah She really does love to have just like a little baby entrance onto the show.
00:05:47
Speaker
She really just does. now she just She's just like a third character of the show. The peanut gallery over there. yeah i Honestly, I'm here for it. I think it's great. i love that she's just like, I yelling from the other room.
00:06:01
Speaker
yeah I think it's fucking fantastic. She inches ever so closely to being on the show for real. Can't wait. Maybe one day. Now I'm just going to sit here and not be on the podcast. You can watch you could watch our stream be broken.
00:06:14
Speaker
Yeah, the stream got broken. Dude, we might actually have to restart. It's royally scuffed. Well, if you need to reset up the stream, that's fine. But I mean, the audio recording is the way what it is. It doesn't have to restart. These guys are great. The audio people love this kind of shit.
00:06:29
Speaker
Yeah. They've been getting it for two years. Audio people, you can keep listening. Video people, you're going to a second stream. The stream's already stopped on my end. I can't see it anymore. it is. It is totally foobar.
00:06:41
Speaker
its Yeah. Everything's frozen. Fucked up beyond all repair. um So anyway, so the the reason I tell the story about my feet is because ah my heel especially has been incredibly sore.
00:06:58
Speaker
um And the back heel of my right foot has been like... Oh, so tender. And i heard it. I went for a run in preparation for the marathon. And then when I was mowing up my big fucking slanted hill, um the like a week after I ran, i pulled something in my heel. And it's been like really sensitive ever since.
00:07:18
Speaker
And so I've been worried I'm going to tear something. So when yesterday, i mentioned this because yesterday I was sitting on my chair as I like to do the one I'm in right now. And Hitch was talking to me.
00:07:30
Speaker
from the hallway and I turned to face
Singing Joys, Misheard Lyrics, and Childhood Songs
00:07:33
Speaker
them and I kicked my feet up. And then as my foot came back down, my heel hit, one of the legs of the, like the feet of the chair. And I had, but you know, Danny, how like when you hurt, when you bump your arm or your leg or your foot and you're not really hurt, but sometimes you'll say ow anyway, you ever do that? Like you're not really hurt. You're more so offended that you, you know, you're surprised.
00:07:53
Speaker
you he Right. Like I had a moment like that, but this is when I saw into another universe. This was like why I was laughing so hard. I hit my heel, like the sense, well, actually wasn't even the sensitive one. It was the other heel. But my brain told me that I hurt the bad one.
00:08:10
Speaker
So I kicked my chair and I made this really funny, like, ah, you fucking idiot. And when I said you fucking idiot, I thought I was talking to myself, but I was talking to myself in a different universe. And I saw me in different clothing, sitting on my chair as if I'm on camera. but in different clothes, hitting his foot.
00:08:31
Speaker
And I pointed at him and I said, you fucking an idiot. And then... And I just started laughing, not only because of the sound I made, but I was laughing because for a brief moment, I was laughing at alternate universe Adam. And I don't know what happened there, but I like to think that right after I did that, alternate universe me was like, the fuck I do. You know?
00:08:50
Speaker
Fuck you too, me. All right. I was laughing, crying. Hitch was laughing, crying. And I was like i just like, ah, fucking idiot. And like I wasn't talking to me. I was talking to other me. Okay. And I think for a brief moment, everybody, I saw into a different plane.
00:09:06
Speaker
And it wasn't because I was in a lot of pain. I imagined that I was and thus teleported myself into a different plane of existence to escape pain that I wasn't feeling.
00:09:17
Speaker
And i don't know how to explain it, but it was such a funny phenomenon that I and and I think it was Giggle 30. I was very tired that evening. i was not giggle thirty again i was already kind of loopy. So I think that didn't help. But i for a brief moment, I swear to God.
00:09:32
Speaker
I've never had a moment like this where I actually looked and saw me that wasn't me. And I thought I was talking to a third person and I talked to that person and they were up into my wall. and looking right where I'm at now. You can't see it on audio, but I'm looking right to my left.
00:09:46
Speaker
There's a, there's the door over there straight ahead of me. And then to the right of the door, i looked at my wall and I saw a another person, which I identified as me after I said, you fucking idiot. And then they disappeared as quickly as that. And I just giggled for like 10 solid minutes.
00:10:01
Speaker
It was one of the funniest, stupidest things I've ever done in my life. And hitchhiking. Didn't have like an out of body experience. I don't know what, i I mean, maybe, but I, wasn't wearing the same clothes.
00:10:12
Speaker
So like. Yeah. Yeah, I thought it might have been an out-of-body. I think for a moment I learned how to jump either out of my body and maybe hallucinated new clothes or I saw a different version of me into another reality. Either way, it was trippy as shit, dude. um And um I would highly recommend i recommend
00:10:38
Speaker
Rose high on life. Yeah, I would 1000% recommend doing it again. um Well, I have some good news. The stream is back up and everything is fixed.
00:10:52
Speaker
I just looked in our I just looked in our discord and Dixon was like the stream froze. He said, i want to share quick out of body and then it froze unloading. Oh, no, you didn't. Oh, oh a sorry I'm so sorry, Nixon.
00:11:10
Speaker
Good thing you listen to the audio version, buddy. um You're going to laugh so hard when you get to this part. It's going to be nothing but a funny memory. I cannot believe how fucking how much of a ride. Well, no, this is great because now we can tell him like, hey, we fixed the stream. You can come back. We could be like, man, that was such a funny story you told. It's true. um Also, for the people at the stream, since you got to hear that, i don't know if you can see this. It's kind of a tough look where I am because we're kind of small. But I have this shirt that is a raccoon riding a goose with a Molotov cocktail in his hand.
00:11:48
Speaker
a And underneath it, it says become ungovernable on it, which I really love. And I think that's the kind of energy we just need right now. But I wore the shit out of it for the past few months that it faded very quickly because I just washed it all the time.
00:12:01
Speaker
So I tie dyed a shirt well for the first time i without it turning gray. I went to a colleague's house and she showed me because she owns so much tie dye stuff that she showed me how to tie dye my shirt.
00:12:11
Speaker
And so I gave it this new life. It looks more vibrant and fun and interesting and it goes really well with the theme. Um, so the shirt is kind of like pink on one side, purple in the middle, and like this, like really nice cyan color on the um on the other side. So my boobs are two different colors. And then my wo my ah clavicle and chest piece is ah purple.
00:12:33
Speaker
We have friends that have a party every year and they do like different ah games. And one of them was a competition to tie dye shirts. And the idea was we tie dyed them there, took them home. And the next day you were supposed to open it up, send a picture in and she declared the winner.
00:12:54
Speaker
I'm not opening mine. It's been a year and we forgot all about it. And you saying this reminded me it exists. I'm like, I'm not. at it I'm not opening that after a year.
00:13:06
Speaker
Why? Where is it? don't even know. You got to find it yeop We tie dyed the shirt and then just like after the party, we just went on and crashed and just forgot all about it.
00:13:19
Speaker
Wow. I'm very curious. Oh, man. Oh, well, I bet you it was cool looking. Well, I would have liked to have like guides on like how to twist the shirt, the shirt to get different designs and stuff.
00:13:34
Speaker
Yeah, I would love to see that because like there's so many ways to do it. Like I did the method where like you roll it up kind of like a.
00:13:42
Speaker
I don't know. You just roll it up long ways and then I just kind of like put some rubber bands on it and just kind of did like five sections. um I think I did one world where you like grab the metal and twist and then. Yeah, that's how you make like the little kind of spiral one. Yeah, I failed at that. I have like kind of like that polyester cotton fiber blend for my marathon shirt and it did not stick very well onto that. So I think i need like a more concentrated dye.
00:14:08
Speaker
But this one turned out really nicely. Uh, any other, I learned cause I've only ever tie dyed shirts at my sister's house that you're supposed to wet the shirt. And there's even kind of like the stuff you can soak it in that allows the dye to set better.
00:14:22
Speaker
And I didn't know that we've always just been tie dyeing dry shirts at my sister's house. Oh no. Cause then it it all feeds off. Doesn't it it all runs? It does. It all runs together and it turns gray. and I've always had bad experiences cause everything I've ever tried to tie dye turns gray.
00:14:35
Speaker
And now I know It's because the moment someone said, well, you're supposed to wet it. i was like, of course, of course you are. Why would I not? yeah Like, yeah oh, no.
00:14:46
Speaker
What? Wait. No, because the last time they had the party, it was warm when they had it. And when we did the tie dye shirts, it was freezing. It's two years ago.
00:14:59
Speaker
Did you at least wash them? No, we haven't even on on rubber banded it. It's still like... Oh, I'm so interested to know what that that even looks like. And you did it wet? It must stink to high heaven.
00:15:11
Speaker
It probably does. That's why I don't want to open it. Oh my god. That's probably the next pandemic shit in there if you open that up. We're going to open it and it's just going to be mold colored. It's going to be tie-dye flu.
00:15:26
Speaker
everyone's Everyone's got to like breathe in rainbow colored mold and fucking mutate. Taste the rainbow. Oh, my God. Yeah. Rainbow mold. But I remember distinctly because we knew you had to wet the shirts first. So the the woman hosting it came out with these tubs of water that we could soak them in.
00:15:46
Speaker
And it was hot water and it was freezing outside. So like 20 people are just huddled around this tub of water with our hands in it because it was warm water and everything else was freezing. Right.
00:15:57
Speaker
Oh, man, what a time to do. When we did it, it was cold, too. we did it most recently on, well, not this one, but the one we tried before at my sister's house. We did it. It was for Easter, but it was on cold-ass Easter. It was like 38 degrees.
00:16:10
Speaker
You're like, let's go out in the cold-ass garage and tie-dye shirts. I'm like, no. Yeah, let's not. don't want to do that. That sucks. Um... Yeah, anyway, Danny, I derailed us long enough. Plus the stream died.
00:16:24
Speaker
We have questions. Do you want to answer? have two questions today. we have two We don't have to answer both. um But I just gave us two just in case you know we needed something to something else to whet the palate.
00:16:38
Speaker
um But okay, I have a question here. it's on the It's been on the stream for some time for those you watching ah later. so Danny, shall I read the question? Please do, sir. All right. So this one is from Light to Lad on the advice Reddit.
00:16:55
Speaker
And they ask, they say, the guy I like can't sing. OK, I need to know if I'm being dramatic or if someone else is second and or someone else gets secondhand embarrassment from this.
00:17:08
Speaker
There's this guy I really like. He's sweet, attractive, thoughtful, but there's one problem. He keeps sending me voice notes of him singing. And it's not even that he's terrible.
00:17:19
Speaker
I guess he can sing. But people singing directly to me makes me physically cringe for some reason. Every time he sends one, I panic, and I immediately shift the conversation to something else because I genuinely don't know how to react without sounding mean.
00:17:33
Speaker
Like, am
Singing Challenges and Surprises
00:17:34
Speaker
I supposed to clap? Cry? Now, I'm low-key nervous because if we actually start dating, what if this man starts singing to my face in person? Like, imagine maintaining eye contact while someone serenades you.
00:17:47
Speaker
I think I'd evaporate. How do I make him stop? Danny, how do we help this person who that likes a guy who keeps sending them voice messages but that are singing?
00:17:58
Speaker
What if he does sing to their face? what yeah would How would you react if Mel started, if Umbeluga started singing to you?
00:18:08
Speaker
I'd probably start laughing because Umbeluga would probably get self-conscious and it it wouldn't go well.
00:18:19
Speaker
um But i I feel half physically attacked by this one. Really? I cannot drive without singing in the car.
00:18:31
Speaker
cannot drive without singing? Yeah. Or you cannot sing without driving? Nope. Every time we're in the car. Well, all right. Basically, I can't be in a car without some music playing. And if I'm driving, I'm probably singing along because it just it occupies that part of my brain that keeps it from getting bored of the road. Helps me keep my focus. Or at least that's what I tell myself.
00:18:56
Speaker
Sure. but Yeah, i I have to sing when I'm driving. I do. I've only been in the car with you a couple of times when Luga is with me. i do it quietly when other people are in the car.
00:19:09
Speaker
But you've heard us. We sing in the car. Yeah, we're doing you're doing a lot of like star bomb shit and. um It's not usually that. Demon Hunters movie.
00:19:20
Speaker
That's stupid. Like, we when other people are around, we'll play sillier songs and stuff. But even the more serious stuff, I have to. i have to. I just do. Yeah, I do some karaoke as well because that's how I practice like voice stuff.
00:19:35
Speaker
So I try to do a full song and like a character or something just to kind of see. It helps me to kind of figure out how long I can hold a certain tone. like The one that hurts me the most is like what I call my Gomer Pyle voice.
00:19:46
Speaker
It's really hard to do. um It doesn't sound that hard, but man, it just everything feels like it's filled up and inflated when I do it. So I try to practice... like Just a small town girl. You know, like kind of like how like a country music singer would sing. But it's that's hard to maintain, dude. That hurts. That's that's actually pretty like close for Kermit. You should work on your voice a little bit.
00:20:08
Speaker
It's a little bit. There you go. It's more to the front of the mouth. But when I do that, I have to do it from back here. Like back here. Dude, it's hard to maintain like the throat stress. ah stress Kermit the Frog is mostly in the front of the the throat and mouth.
00:20:25
Speaker
at least how I do it, but I can't, I cannot do it. So sometimes when i'm in the car, I try to like practice these things to see how long can I go before I'm just like, Oh, well, the worst is sometimes whatever song we're listening to. And I, I know it happens.
00:20:42
Speaker
They go higher than I can reach. Sure. But damn it. I still try. Go for it. And every time I'm like, I know. Beluga is just sitting there and I'm like,
00:20:53
Speaker
I hope she doesn't care because you try to go it's just she's to have to deal. You try to go like Idina Menzel and just try to hit her notes like flying so hard, flying gravity.
00:21:06
Speaker
and you're like, nope. I have yet to find- then when I'm alone, I just belt. Oh, for sure. Everything. sure. And then when I fuck up, I'll just swear a bunch. I also exaggerate my coughs because I go, you know, because then it makes me feel less shitty about fucking up. There you go. I just make myself laugh.
00:21:32
Speaker
the Sometimes I'm really trying. The best is when I'm not really paying attention to the song. I'm just absentmindedly singing as I'm driving and I'll sing a line and then Mblog be like,
00:21:43
Speaker
ah The line is actually this. Don't you correct me? Yeah. Like, are you sure? Because I've always heard it this way. No, Dan, they're saying for fun, not faux fun or whatever. like You know, it's a yeah funny thing about that.
00:22:03
Speaker
You know, that song. think it's called Here I Go Again by Whitesnake. Hmm. Here I go again on my own. So there's a part in that song, because I've heard different renditions where he says, like a hobo, I was born to walk alone.
00:22:20
Speaker
And like a drifter, I was born to walk alone. I've always heard drifter. Drifter is the more popular one because that's what he changed it to when he re-released the song. um But originally it was like a hobo, I was born to walk alone.
00:22:34
Speaker
Um, and there's some, none know there's theory online. One of is that he changed it to drifter because he thought drifter sounded cooler and then it would like be a better,
00:22:45
Speaker
um a better hit with audiences. But then somebody, there's another rumor that he changed it to from hobo to drifter because he was afraid that people would hear homo when they were listening to the song.
00:22:58
Speaker
So he didn't want, he didn't want people to get the wrong idea. you know that's fair And so he was worried that they would say like a homo I was born on. And I don't know if there's truth to it, but it's a very funny theory.
00:23:11
Speaker
um But that's another one of those things where like, I thought the lyric was this. And then you go back and actually there's two versions of it And you're like, oh, well, shit, I wasn't wrong. But I, you know.
00:23:22
Speaker
Yeah, I'm trying to think. There was one song that I think it was a Nickelback song. I was just singing back to myself. And Mbelook is like,
00:23:36
Speaker
why are you singing the non-explicit version? I was just like, there's a, there's an explicit version. I had just never heard it. I got the Walmart CD and like, it cuts all the bad stuff out. Yeah.
00:23:50
Speaker
That happened to me with disturbed. When I heard the uncut version of down with the sickness, i was like, where the fuck did this whole rant come from at the end? What? tweet Oh my God. Wait, wait, wait.
00:24:03
Speaker
No, mommy, don't do it again. Like, what the hell? So when when I listen to the song, and this just happens to be the version I have on YouTube that shows up, mine has the rant.
00:24:16
Speaker
Mbeluga listens to it without the rant. Right. Either version is fine. They're both amazing.
00:24:22
Speaker
When we went to go visit my parents this year. Oh, no. Oh, no. We were making fun of my mom because she keeps playing music from like, The 60s. We're like, these yeah. And Beluga and I are both like, we don't even know these songs. Like they sound nothing like music today. You know, we both like hard to rock and and metal and stuff.
00:24:48
Speaker
So. my dad was like, fine, put on something you want to listen to. So you chose down with a sickness. Oh, just to get to my mom, we put on down with the sickness.
00:25:03
Speaker
Well, we we had first put on sound of silence by. Okay. Disturbed. That's a good entry. And that's great. It's such a great song. Yeah. um And then we're like, yeah, but that's not what they're really like. And my dad's like, oh, what are they really like?
00:25:17
Speaker
And my my mom's like, no, please don't. So we put on down with the sickness and I didn't realize it was the one with Oh no. That whole middle bit where he's going, no mommy, please don't do it again. Don't be a good boy. And the whole time I'm just sitting there like, yeah yeah yes you don't need to hear this. Dude. I was going to say, that's a rough one. Yeah.
00:25:41
Speaker
I never forget, dude. I was in high school and my friend Brittany lent me her CD. And when I was just letting that play one day, i was just like, what the fuck? Because I had only ever gotten a CD from Walmart and they're non-explicit versions.
00:25:53
Speaker
And even their explicit versions aren't always the full rendition. So I don't know where she got hers from. But the first time I heard that, I was like, is this new? Did they redo the song? and she And she was just like, what the fuck? you No. Like, what are you talking about? No, you you listen to the baby versions. And then I realized, like, man, all of my so like songs, are like they're all the baby versions. Like, shit, I had no idea. Because some of them say explicit on it, but they're not even that bad.
00:26:18
Speaker
When we were at the house later, she had the we were playing board game together, and she had music playing my mom. And it was mostly that stuff, right? But we we had convinced her to at least put on, like, eighty s ninety s stuff.
00:26:35
Speaker
And I heard immediately, I heard the iconic laugh of crazy train. And I saw my mom reach for the ram remote and I'm like, don't you dare put that down. She's like, how do you even know this song? I'm like, cause I have taste. You put the remote down.
00:26:50
Speaker
Yeah. I'm curious what what what Terry and Gabe listen to, because I mean, I like some oldies. There's some shit on there. Like, I don't know who sings a lot of the songs that I know, but like, I remember I grew up with a lot of those because my parents also. I'm sure when this episode comes out, I'll hear about it in about a week.
00:27:07
Speaker
There was one that goes like, my baby just wrote me a letter. And it's about a guy who's like, my baby wrote me a letter, so I have to find a way to get back to her. So he's like talking about taking a bus in an airplane. man it's a good jam. There's one called My Baby does Loves the Hanky Panky.
00:27:22
Speaker
It's either there loves the Hanky Panky or does the Hanky Panky. I can't remember. i need to know if anybody else knows this song because Mbeluga never heard it. But I remember it distinctly from my childhood.
00:27:34
Speaker
As being like the. Weirdest and like the dirtiest song from my childhood in like a creepy kind of way.
00:27:46
Speaker
it was called i Want to Be Your Underwear. I want to be. Do you know that? Yeah. I want to be. ban anin or nain or Now your underwear. bo boun mr brown brown m You'll have to look it up later.
00:28:04
Speaker
It's it's such a weird song. Like, i don't know that one.
00:28:10
Speaker
want to. It's all about this guy's like. you know I want to be the shoes when you go clubbing. I want to be this. I want to be your towel when you're sweating. I want to be... oh it's it's so weird. I'm it up. to one them sings it yeah And as a kid... i mean adams That's a Bryan Adams song?
00:28:31
Speaker
As a kid, i only half understood like what the song was really about. 1996. Yeah, that sounds about right. And later I listened to it again and I was like,
00:28:42
Speaker
My mother, what the hell was my mom listening to? I'm playing it now. You probably heard the Planet Fitness ad just now. No, I don't hear any of it.
00:28:57
Speaker
yeah No, I definitely haven't heard this before. I just want hear- Oh, you're in for a ride. That's a Bryan Adams song. Wow. in for a hell of a ride.
00:29:08
Speaker
Incredible. No, I don't know that one. Um, there's an old country song that I learned. The first CD that I ever owned was a song or a CD called, um, country funnies.
00:29:23
Speaker
And it was just a bunch of random, like kind of country twang style songs. Ray Stevens was also on there. Roger Miller was on there. And there was this random song called may the bird of paradise fly up your nose. My, I know that song. Well, my mother played it a lot, dude, that song. I have it on my playlist now. It's still fucking slabs. If you want a good a good funny song, listen to
Animal Behavior and Vocal Techniques
00:29:47
Speaker
the Mermaid song by...
00:29:50
Speaker
Big, real big C real big C or real big fish or whatever it is. Nevermind. You know that song already. Funny enough. I think Shel Silverstein either wrote that or he is one of the earliest performers of it.
00:30:03
Speaker
Oh really? Yeah. It's about, it's a guy about ah who sees a mermaid and at the very end, at the bottom part's a girl. he taught The wife yeah or the sister of the mermaid. Yeah. yeah I fucking love that song.
00:30:16
Speaker
Like that was one of those songs that Shel Silverstein performed that was like a far cry from like when he performed for adults, it was real raunchy shit. And when he wrote for kids, it was really clean, very silly, very wild.
00:30:28
Speaker
But like, I never knew about the side of him that like, but he i don't know if he wrote that song or if he just performed it. Oh, I love that song. I typed in. What's the other one that's really good about like tying a ribbon or around your finger?
00:30:45
Speaker
Tying a ribbon around your foot? It's about a woman who meets a sailor and she is the innkeeper's daughter. And.
00:30:58
Speaker
how did it go? She told him she'll tie ah a ribbon around her or he should come back and she'll have a ribbon around her finger and he goes back and that's all she has on is the ribbon around her finger.
00:31:10
Speaker
Hmm.
00:31:13
Speaker
I don't know. I'd have to hear that. not doing these songs justice. That sounds familiar. Also, Shel Silverstein did write that song. He had on an album that he, it's called I'm So Good That I Don't Have to Brag in 1965. In 1966, The Mermaid was published in Playboy magazine while while Silverstein was a regular contributor.
00:31:31
Speaker
Oh my God. Yeah. That's crazy. I fucking love that song. It's so good. Her upper part was an ugly fish with a bottom part. The bottom part was a girl. Fucking dude, it's such a good song.
00:31:48
Speaker
If you haven't heard This is why we have a bromance. You're the only person that I know that's ever heard that song. Who sings it? Is it Real Big Sea? It's Real Big sea Fish or Real Big Sea? Real Big Fish is a skull band. but Great Big Sea?

Engaging the Reddit Community and Funny Calls
00:34:00
Speaker
i would just fucking i just talk to we did hear Just talk to him.
00:34:07
Speaker
tell Look, I don't mind that you like to sing. i love it. In fact, it's expression. Your way of expressing yourself. But please just don't sing to me. I find it incredibly awkward.
00:34:19
Speaker
i don't think that's weird. I wouldn't like to be sung at. I know Mbeluga doesn't like to be sung at. Nobody likes to be serenaded. Because, yeah, what do you do? You just like sit there. Nobody likes to be sung at when it's their birthday.
00:34:32
Speaker
Nobody likes it when everybody does happy birthday. It's the same true. Yeah. If you're there and go like, well, now what do I smile? Yeah. If you're at a concert of one, that must be tough. Even if it's somebody that like a celebrity that you love that sings directly to you, that must be hard to just know. what Like, it's kind of like, you know, that whole meme of like, i don't know what to do with my hands. yeah Like what? I don't know what to with face, with my body.
00:34:55
Speaker
I, you know, I remember that thing that makes you look more relatable. Like I remember when like I crashed with my brother for a little while in North Carolina and his wife at the time made just a comment. We're at a mall and she saw that you could hire like a barbershop quartet to sing.
00:35:14
Speaker
And she's like, oh, that's neat. And my brother took that. I like, she must want that for our anniversary. And so he and again, he ordered it. They showed up and and they were very they were very sweet. It was really not. It was cool to hear. But I could not go down there and watch them because it's just weird to just stare at four guys in your room.
00:35:30
Speaker
doorway singing like wow and so she just kind of stood there and went you know real fast claps afterwards and i was like what do you do in that like situation like i'd rather than perform for like a group did you see i think it's it's probably a tiktok thing but there's a guy that will order like kids party entertainers like clowns yeah or like spider man and he'll just be there alone and he's just like go ahead That must be so awkward. I'm like, I gotta own my money. And it's just him sitting on the couch. Like, they're just eating snacks together talking about life. Yeah. As long as they're getting their money, go for a dog. Oh, that's fantastic. Yeah, if you if you like the... Well, here's the thing. You're not dating the guy, but you like him.
00:36:16
Speaker
And if this is, like, the only thing you can tell so far that's, like, his yellow flag, then communicate with him to see if it's a red flag. Just like you said. Like, just... You know, I just feel like, Hey man, you know what? I really love that you like to sing. I appreciate that you send me these things. It sounds like that's a way that you show affection.
00:36:35
Speaker
Uh, but just like, you know, if we hang out in person, i have a hard time with that. I have a lot of anxiety around that kind of thing. Like, you know, I'd be, you know, cool.
00:36:47
Speaker
Um, you know, if you want to write me a song, that's a little different, but if you just want to sing at me, cause you want some, but if it turns into like a, he just needs like that, ah validation that like someone's paying attention to my singing.
00:37:00
Speaker
You know, it's like somebody who wants you to watch their whole slideshow of their vacation, or they want to show you all the pictures of their kids. And you're like, ah, I mean, I want to be supportive, but also like ah you're trying to, you're like, you're, um,
00:37:14
Speaker
ah you're buttonholing me right now, you know, um that's kind of right. See, um I don't like that. So, yeah, I think if you just say, hey, I have some anxiety around that. I still want to support you. i love that you love to sing. I think it's great. Your voice is great.
00:37:30
Speaker
But I just have a hard time when I'm being sung, too. Yeah. um So it's it's harder when it's like, oh, it's weird to me that it's a voice message thing. You know, like it's one thing if it's in person, I could definitely understand.
00:37:46
Speaker
But it it feels weird to me to do it as a voice message for him to do it. Yeah. I don't know ah Like that just makes it even more awkward to me. Like, I think I'd find that even more awkward than really.
00:37:59
Speaker
i don't know. Well, because some of you was written un prompted if it was in person, I think I'd lean into it and make it sillier. As long as it's not like a love ballad or something. But if he's singing to me, I'll just start singing to like. Right. Like if he starts singing Nickelback, I'll sing with you. But if you're trying to say like, if you're like, hey, I wrote this for you.
00:38:21
Speaker
Like I was saying before, I sing when I drive. Sometimes Beluga will sing with me and I love it when that happens. Yeah. It's like that guy who carries his guitar everywhere and just can't wait for a reason to use it at the party. Right. So anyway, here's Wonderwall.
00:38:35
Speaker
Right. So it's like, okay, exactly. It's like, that's not you. That's because you want that attention and that's how you get it. But I understand you want to flex that. That's how you express yourself. Like maybe that's how you try to make friends.
00:38:49
Speaker
Not everybody knows how to do that. But in this case, if, the if, if, you know, you don't want to lead the guy on and have to sit there and be critch or you don't want to freak out on him. If he does start hanging out with you and he does want to sing to you in person, then like, Oh, so yeah, I think, you know, just say, just say, Hey man, you know, i love that you do this, but just like, Hey, just don't do it in person. Okay. Like, yeah I think it's okay just to say you have anxiety around it, make it about you, like make it about how you're feeling, not judgmental towards him.
00:39:19
Speaker
you know, I appreciate that you do this, but just so you know, if we're ever hanging out and you feel like singing, I have a really hard time with that. It's not about you. It's about me. I just, i struggle with very bad anxiety.
00:39:30
Speaker
um so if you want to make me a mixtape, cool. Yeah, there you go. Like I do that, I guess. One last thing. Cause I kind of understand. This is so bad.
00:39:45
Speaker
I once dated a girl who would perform for like on in theater and stuff. She had a beautiful singing voice.
00:39:59
Speaker
And we went out one day, it was me and her and a couple of her friends who I didn't really know. And we're in public. And she starts singing real loud.
00:40:09
Speaker
And it's really good. And she finishes up her song and random people start clapping. Well, then her friends turned to me and go, how about you? Can you sing? Yeah, you should sing. I was like, no, I can't sing. No.
00:40:26
Speaker
yo You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch. New York. Yeah. Either you just like stick to something real talky or you just go way out of your range and just say, fuck it. You know, like going to go for it. Concrete, jungle, green leaf, tomato. So anyway, so anyway, here's, ah here's I will always love you by Whitney Houston. And ah, get that breath in there halfway through. Yeah.
00:41:00
Speaker
Yeah, that's that's that's awkward. That's awkward. Yeah, it was bad. I was just like, hey, everybody, I'm not going to do that. Yeah. And like, I get how those things happen. Like, I get how you just want to flex that or you enjoy it or.
00:41:14
Speaker
But like, yeah there's a time and a place and sometimes it's like. You know, like we're in the middle of a conversation. You just start like strumming on your guitar. i'm like, I'm sorry. Yeah. Yeah.
00:41:25
Speaker
Like you can say, hey, do you want to hear a song? And if I go, yeah, sure. You know, but if they're like, oh, well, you know, one. OK. And then, all right, put it away. put it away I was actually um told all of my life I can't sing. Like all of my friends were like, you you can't hold a note. You can't, you know, you're tone deaf. You can't sing at all.
00:41:42
Speaker
And I used to be on the play crew for high school. So I'd hear the same five songs every time they did the play. You know, I was there.
00:41:53
Speaker
And then one day i was just feeling kind of silly. And I just kicked open the door to the locker room as we were like, everybody was getting ready. And I just belted out one of the songs.
00:42:04
Speaker
And people were coming around the corner like, was that you? That was actually really good. And i was like, oh, now I don't know what to do. Because that was the first time anybody ever said my singing was good. Mm-hmm.
00:42:17
Speaker
See, it's not that you can't sing. It's just that, you know, you're not trained. But I've I don't think I don't think there's many people in the world that can't sing like. Well, yeah, I mean, you can't sing. need to find the right songs for you.
00:42:34
Speaker
You know, yeah if you're technically you can say, I don't think there's many people in the world that would. It's impossible for them to not sound good. Or it's impossible for them to sound good, I should say. right it's It's hard for... like Something I'm still trying to find is like my register. Because like some things... like like When you're singing a song, you want to do it to the tone that they're doing it. But sometimes you're trying to match their pitch. not that you know like I don't know all the terms for singing. But sometimes it's like... like The ones I find the the hardest to sing are like, like an example would be like My December by Linkin Park. Like he sings that so softly.
00:43:10
Speaker
You think that'd be easy, but I fucking struggle to hit that low of a note to sound like him. But I'm also like, why am I trying to sing like Chester when like I don't have Chester's voice? There's ways sing in key, but not the same register. or One of the things I only figured out and like I used to be really badly tone deaf. I've gotten a lot better.
00:43:31
Speaker
And one of the things that really helped it that was finally giving up on trying to match the tone of the song and singing in my octave, ah which is usually an octave lower than whatever they're singing.
00:43:43
Speaker
Right. And was it helped tremendously. And but it's. It feels so weird to do until like it clicks, if that makes sense.
00:43:53
Speaker
It's like a piano because like there you can do the same notes or the same chords on different parts of the piano. Right. But like some are high and some are low, and but they're the same notes.
00:44:06
Speaker
Um, so yeah, that's something I've been trying to figure out and that's why I've been fucking around with voices. But like, well, if I were this guy, could he do that? Would it sound different if he sang my December versus like me?
00:44:20
Speaker
then it kind of helps me. It kind of helps me realize like what my voice can do. You know, what's funny is I'm learning what my voice sounds like when I sing and it sounds closer to what my real voice is, which is not, shouldn't be a surprise, but like, cause my voice is a bit naslier than I realize it is sometimes.
00:44:36
Speaker
And so I always feel like I'm a a lot more like. um Squeaky is not the word. I don't know how to ah almost character. I don't know if you ever heard like um they might be giant sing like, you know, particle man, particle man. Like that voice there is pretty much where I live is like how they say. I was going to say like very Maroon 5-y.
00:45:00
Speaker
It kind of has that ah to it. Yeah, there's like an and I was like, I can hold like an for a really long time. And I was like, that might be my actual singing voice. Maybe depending on like what song I'm trying to sing. So that's kind of a weird thing. It's like I can I can I can bang out Dr. Worm like you wouldn't believe. It's so weird to me, like how different your voice sounds to you.
00:45:24
Speaker
Right. Like my voice sounds so different to me. yeah I'm always well, not anymore so much, but I was always so surprised when I heard it. It was so much deeper and.
00:45:39
Speaker
Braspier or smokier than i Realized. Hmm. don't know exactly how to put it, but I definitely have like a
00:45:52
Speaker
Yeah, I guess like a smokiness to it. A smokiness. Do you mean like a like a smoker or you like a smoker? But like it's. It's got more of like this kind of feel to it. Oh, I don't hear that at all when I listen to you talk.
00:46:09
Speaker
Oh, no, maybe that's just me then. But it it makes voice acting hard because I can always pick it out of my own voices. I can be like, yeah, I can hear my actual voice. You have more of a. ah um Like, ah I don't know what they call it, but like because I like that I can do it like in this register that I'm talking in.
00:46:29
Speaker
But like, I can't maintain it if I'm trying to like sing, which upsets me because I like how it sounds. But like, there's like a vibration, like there's more of of a vibration in your throat when you talk. no I noticed that i'm thinking of.
00:46:41
Speaker
Yeah, there's like, well, you know what I can't do? You know what like I can't do very well? Vocal fry. My voice, I don't even know how to start.
00:46:53
Speaker
Yeah, it's like that thing where you go like, that's the best I'm going to get. But some people can do like the grudge. Right. Like I can kind of do that, but I can't project it, which is what I want to learn how to do. i want to be able to like do that to the back of the room, but I don't know how to do it. Like I can only do it to the back of the room. or Yeah.
00:47:12
Speaker
Both because like you could I mean, kind of how Chester Bennington would sing was like that, but on like an extreme level. That's how he could get like that. yeah I don't know how you're supposed to do that, like not hurt himself. Like, I don't know how to do that without just how do I belt without breaking myself? You know, um but yeah, ah all that to say, you know, communication goes a long way.
00:47:36
Speaker
Just tell the guy, you know, just say, hey, I appreciate these. But hey, you know what? Cause you better not sing in front of me because I get real awkward. Yeah. Look, I'm sorry. I know you enjoy singing. i know that, you know, and I respect that is how you express yourself. If you want to sing together, you know, in the car or whatever, be goofy about it.
00:47:56
Speaker
Cool. Right. That's the best place to do it. Please don't send me voice messages. If you singing, I just find it awkward. It's just not for me. Don't, Make sure you don't use any accusatory language. Don't say you need to stop. Say it's just not for me.
00:48:11
Speaker
I would like it if you didn't send me those. Right. Or just recognize that maybe this isn't the guy to like, you know, if this is something that's really important to him and he loves to sing and that's how he shows love to people and that's not how you receive it, then, hey, man, it's cool to like those qualities about a dude. But maybe that's not like boyfriend material, but maybe they're sending them right back to him.
00:48:34
Speaker
The same thing when he sends you a voice clip of him singing. respond with that same voice clip back and be like, yeah, how do you like it? Yeah. Yeah. Just say, this is you. This is you. This is what you sound like. Hello. Just a small.
00:48:51
Speaker
Yeah. Like, I think as long as I think the exception is that if he's like writing songs for you to sing, like, I think there's a different way to communicate where you're like, Hey,
00:49:03
Speaker
I really love that you think of me like this. I, I don't know how to respond to these things, but it really makes me feel good. Do you think of me like this? But is there, there's a better way to do it, you know? But like, if he's just singing like, Oh, Hey, this is unprompted. He's just like, you know, singing a little shop of horrors or some shit. And you're like, cool, man. you yes That's cool.
00:49:27
Speaker
I mean, and
00:49:30
Speaker
I get where the guy is coming from. Cause I also i sing a lot. I do to myself. You know, I'll do it while I'm doing the dishes or something. I'll sing to myself in the car when I'm driving. I sing or I belt it out like I really sing that.
00:49:44
Speaker
ah So I understand where he's coming from as a way to just express yourself. It's what I like to do. I don't think I would ever send it as a voice message, though. That's.
00:49:58
Speaker
Especially unprompted. Like, yeah, like I don't. If it's just a voice clip and it's just like you singing. don't think it's a red flag. i barely even think it's a yellow flag, but it is certainly a quirk that I would be like, hey, man, I respect your quirk. I I get that this is what you want to do.
00:50:15
Speaker
It's just not for me, dog. Mm hmm. And I don't think if I were that guy, I'd be insulted by that. I'd just be like, yeah but I think that's how you determine if there is a greater flag is how does this person respond when you say, hey, I appreciate that you do this, but that's not like how I receive affection. Yeah. If he starts to get all nice guy about it, then.
00:50:37
Speaker
Right. If he gets like real prima donna about that shit, then it's like, OK, like, oh, well, this is how I express my love to you. Right. You don't but want came to hear it. It sounds to me like what you want is validation in an audience. And i don't want to be that, you know? Yeah.
00:50:52
Speaker
But again, you're not even in a relationship. It's just someone that you like, who you're friends with, who is saying these things to you. Is he sending them to other people? Because then you say like, hey, if they like it, keep sending them to them, dude. If you're in the same social circle, ask them like, hey, does is Brian send you songs of him singing I Want to Be Your Underwear? yeah know like I'm just curious if Mr. Adams has sent that to you as well.
00:51:19
Speaker
Or shower when you swim. I want to be the boba to your face. That's not in the song. that um Anyway, I think we've good and gathered up answers for this one. do you I think we did eventually answer the question, yeah.
00:51:35
Speaker
Yeah. How are you feeling about dragging the other question onto the screen? Like that? Do you think you'll break it? Did you do it already? Sorry, there's a there's a delay. so I don't know. I do have to. I'm just going resize the window. But yeah.
00:51:50
Speaker
Oh, yeah. Just we do have one more question, listeners, just because I thought it's like, oh, I wasn't sure. i honestly did not know that we wouldve gone on a tangent that we did. I knew we'd go on a tangent, but I didn't know what the ride was going to look like. There's no way you would have known this, but there's a lot of like singing stuff in my life. You know, I do it a lot. I had a lot to say about it.
00:52:12
Speaker
Yeah, there's there's Danny is a very passionate man. Apparently, I really like to to sing. For better or worse. Speaking of which, do you remember that old owl cartoon from Looney Tunes of the little owl that says that song like i love to sing a about? Oh, yeah, yeah. And it's for God.
00:52:29
Speaker
I was just watching that the other day. I think I said this on the last episode, actually. I can't remember. But God, it's a fucking good one. We spent the next hour and a half after last week's episode just watching those. I dragged Mbeluga into the living room and I was like, sit down. We're watching these.
00:52:45
Speaker
I sent Danny like so a playlist and like some other clips of like old school cartoon cartoons, like talking to each other and like their old little groovies they used to play in the mornings and stuff.
00:52:57
Speaker
Man, I went been down a rabbit hole. Yeah, my best friend's playing. I've been jamming to Circles for... Circles is great. Jabberjaw is great. Jabberjaw is my favorite. song Josie and the Pussycats, when they go through like all the different themes. yes. That one's so fucking good.
00:53:15
Speaker
i love it. ah The one Powerpuff Girl song that sounds like the Beatles. I'm a Supergirl. ah Superpower. Power, super, super power. Oh, yeah. forgot about that one. The Fish guy. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:53:29
Speaker
Fucking love that one. um That's a great one. Speaking of the beetle. But anyway. Yeah, yeah. Anyway, the question. I have a question. Question. This one is from the No Stupid Questions. Petrichor Pendragon. Remember Petrichor?
00:53:43
Speaker
That word we learned? or I do. you Remember what Petrichor means? No. You don't remember Petrichor means? No. Petrichor is, if I recall the definition as close as I can, it's like that kind of dewy scent, like in the morning, the petrichor. Oh, that's right. That's right.
00:54:00
Speaker
Kind of. That's like the smell of rain. Rain. Like was either that or cut grass. I don't think it's cut grass. I'm allergic to that shit. Let me see.
00:54:12
Speaker
Petrichor is an earthy, fresh and slightly musky scent released when rain falls on dry soil. Yeah, that's what I said. I told you it's not when you cut grass, dummy. It's wet grass it's it's wet soil with grass, maybe.
00:54:25
Speaker
ah Anyway, so this question is from Petrichor Pendragon, and he they ask, if wolves are chasing you and you start awooing, will they... I haven't read it out loud yet. I only read it in my head. and it just Okay. Okay.
00:54:45
Speaker
if ahhah If wolves are chasing you and you start a wooing. Don't laugh. I see it starting. I can see it. Nope, I see it Shit. oh I'm a hard man. Let's go. I'm Vegeta. If wolves are chasing you and you start a-wooing, will they have to stop and a-woo with you?
00:55:14
Speaker
What about regular dogs? o really If wolves are chasing you and you start a-wooing, will they have to stop and a-woo with you? What about regular dogs?
00:55:25
Speaker
That's the question.
00:55:32
Speaker
just You know what we should do, Danny, is you should sign into TOQ on Reddit and just say, we answered this on our podcast. Thank you for the question. Oh, that's a really good idea. Just like see if we can just like advertise by just responding and like earning those points on Reddit while we do it. That's actually a really good idea. We answered this on the podcast. Thank you so much. This was hilarious. Hey, just so you know, we have a podcast. We answered your question on it.
00:55:59
Speaker
I think you just, you don't even say like watch on the pod. You say, Hey, we answered this on our podcast. It was hilarious. Thank you. And then let them seek us out. That way we're not violating any rules. We're not like posting links. We're just like, they'll just see our logo and that's it.
00:56:12
Speaker
And then they'll maybe they'll look for us or something. And then they can click on our profile and it'll say podcast. That's our cue. Listen here. know, you know that's how That's actually a really good idea. i like that. Yeah, man. That's how we do it. That's how we do it. Hey, listen, if you're a listener and you're also on ah Reddit and you can find the questions that we answer, please let them know. Oh my God. They just answered this on my favorite podcast. That's our cue.
00:56:35
Speaker
Oh my God. Have you heard about these two idiots that answer questions? Yeah. hey yeah Have you heard about this? good It just occurred to me. I haven't thought of a fucking answer or a title to this question yet. To this ah podcast episode.
00:56:49
Speaker
Anywho.
00:56:52
Speaker
Uh, so funny story about why I'm laughing at Awu because, um, the song Werewolves of London, you know, he does that, ahhoo where you know, um, for the longest time we had, I had a friend, his name was, um,
00:57:09
Speaker
Andrew. And when he was little, he had this high pitch squeaky voice, but he shot up to be like six and a half feet tall, but real skinny beanpole. But the deepest motherfucking voice I've ever heard from anyone I've ever met.
00:57:23
Speaker
And, yeah and I used to quote him because like, he fell in love with like this one couch that I had. He was like, he's like the most comfortable couch ever been on to the point where like, he came to, he came to my house one day and he's says, hello, old friend. And he just like gives it a big hug. And just like that phrase, we just nicknamed the couch, the old friend, because he said that.
00:57:41
Speaker
Um, and so we started, Justin and I, when we were still pal, we were roommates many years ago and when that song would come on, we would like mimic our buddy Andrew's voice. And so and sort of we'd go, ah, whoa, werewolves of London. yeah who And so even though we'd sing the rest of a song, when it got them, we'd go, ah, whoa, ah, whoa. We're just going to get caught in like a silly loop of just saying a woo and like the deepest voice that we possibly could.
00:58:12
Speaker
And so like I was just hearing you like if if wolves are chasing you and they start a wooing, like what? Let's stop an a woo with you. Like was just I was just hearing my own dumb voice and Andrew's voice saying those words. So that's why I was laughing because like the the word a woo it holds a special spot in my heart.
00:58:31
Speaker
um And so I hope that when you hear werewolves of London, you you too will sing it that way when it comes on. Can you please put ah in the comments just a woo in the comments? Yeah, find this episode of the podcast love wherever you listen to it and just like type in a woo in the comments.
00:58:54
Speaker
That'd be really funny. That'd be really funny. Oh my God. Anyway, Danny, like, do the wolves, are they obligated? Do they have to stop and I will with you? And if so, do I think, I think this is actually a really good way to get your face eaten.
00:59:10
Speaker
If you just stop and you go, I will. Yeah. I think I think that's a really good way to have the wolves just catch up to you and and and you go down. And then after you're dead and done and, you know, maybe they tear you apart a little bit.
00:59:24
Speaker
They'll look up to the moon and go. oh whoo I like I have heard of stories of. Like if you hear a wolf howling in the distance or a coyote like yipping or like some other kind of creature that kind of makes it like even some birds like when they do calls.
00:59:45
Speaker
If you like how the right way, if you yip the right way, if you screech the right way, whatever that call may be, sometimes they'll respond to it. But like. I don't know what it means, but like they'll sound different, but like they'll they'll kind of call back.
01:00:00
Speaker
Yep. But like, they're probably not convinced that you're a wolf, but they're like, what the fuck are you? Well, it's kind of like people with huskies. Teaching, especially the puppies, teaching them to howl.
01:00:12
Speaker
Right. You know, by going a woo and then husky goes. Yeah. Yeah. It's like. So like if you, if you don't think it would work, I don't.
01:00:26
Speaker
Well, because I think, i think it means something. It's like wolves trying to find each other or announcing their presence and they know, like they, they see you. I think if you were to do it and they can't see you and it sounds convincing enough, maybe, but I think if they're already chasing you down, i think it's too late.
01:00:46
Speaker
Yeah, I think, As much as I like the idea that it's like that, like he's this person says it as if it's a rule, like, will they have to stop?
01:00:57
Speaker
Yeah, like I love I love the idea of it. I just don't think of it it or like like just like nature declares that if someone I woos, you have to at least acknowledge it before you continue whatever it is that you're doing.
01:01:10
Speaker
You know, like like like, you know, like Daryl Wolf was like, how? and then like he just hears a call he's like fuck yes i hear you and he goes all right yeah like oh my god dave please every night with this shit we know you're lonely the moon's not coming back yeah like we agreed that we're all gonna howl at nine it's 8 54.
01:01:37
Speaker
The moon has not yet reached its zenith. Yeah, I love the idea that just like they have to. This is like a written law that just animals have to. Vampires can't cross the threshold without being invited in. Wolves can't deny a howl once they hear it. You know, just the laws of the land. It's just how it works.
01:01:59
Speaker
Yeah. Oh, I think I got a title. I think it's... Oh, yeah. I think it's, Awu, is this thing on? Oh, very nice.
01:02:10
Speaker
Because of the guy singing. Awu? Awu, is this thing on? Awu. Awu? Awu. The moment I read that, I was like, fuck. Man, I can't hear it outside of Andrew's voice. Like, Awu. Awu.
01:02:26
Speaker
ah funny Anyway, um i will say, though, if you're being chased, yeah, you're probably unless you get real like wild, like a few stops, start wooing and like. Start throwing snow and brush or whatever it is up in the air and you're just trying to like create a thing.
01:02:43
Speaker
Maybe that'll confuse them. But like you'd have to make it real big, real fast because they're gaining on you. They're probably just going to jump. Yeah. um But I will say if you're in a situation where you're surrounded by wolves, at least you have some like in front of you and they have yet to come after you, like you're kind of in like a what do I do situation.
01:03:03
Speaker
You could just try howling and see what they do, because like a lot of predators, like when you run like they want you to run. Yeah. So like they can, you know, then like they can use their tactics to get you like most predators don't want to be confronted because then they're oh, the problem. The problem with wolves as pack on theirs is if you have a wolf in front of you kind of doing the standoff.
01:03:26
Speaker
There's like two behind you coming at you. Right. Right. So you kind of have to just you have to make a stand quick. It's like when you see a bear, if he's already charging at you, it's tough to do anything about that. But if like the bear just like you got to get big and you got to scream at it. Right. He's like trying to feel you out.
01:03:42
Speaker
then like you have to, you know, so like if the wolves are trying to feel you out and you're just trying you they' like, well, I'm about to get fucking eaten anyway. So you just have to get big to get big and just start howling like crazy anyway, because maybe they'll be confused and they'll run because they're like, oh, this thing isn't running from me. It's actually might be a threat to me.
01:03:58
Speaker
It won't always work, but most predators aren't used to fighting because they're just used to being the one that's kicking ass. So like, you know, that's why most of the time, like a bear, even though they would absolutely beat you in a fight. yeah Animals,
01:04:11
Speaker
are like bullies. True. if If you let them, they will tear you apart. They'll take your money. job let's be Yeah, they'll take your lunch money. ah Like Adam did to our friend's kid.
01:04:26
Speaker
Yeah. But if you stand up to them, they won't know what to do. And they might even start crying for their mom. And then you'll be the talk of the town, of the animal kingdom.
01:04:38
Speaker
There's a smaller chance of getting your ass beat. like There's always a chance that like even if you stand on your ground, you're you're still going to fucking get got. But at that point, like what do you like especially when it comes to an animal, like if if you got nowhere to run and they're already within closing distance, like you're not going outrun a wolf. Sorry. you know like If you got nowhere to go, I mean, like if you're like... but A couple of feet from the door and you can make it to the door and go for it. But like if you're in the fucking woods and you can't climb a tree. The number one rule with dealing with an animal is, you know, always be wary of it a cornered animal.
01:05:15
Speaker
It's the same for people. If you're stuck in a corner and you have nowhere else to go, you might as well try. ah can go out with a bang. Yeah. You'll probably get your ass beat and die. But I mean, like you got it anyway, if you got a belt, you know, like fold it up and snap it, do it, you know, do what you need to do to make some loud ass, like do it slowly.
01:05:34
Speaker
Like sudden moves will make things attack. So like, sure. Try ah wooing to confuse them, but like do it before the chase happens. Not after. Hitch is calling me. Should I answer the phone while we're on the street? Absolutely.
01:05:49
Speaker
Hang I'm going to. Should I answer the phone? Hello, Hitch. You're on the air with Adam and Danny. Hi, Hitch. Hello, Adam. You've locked me out of the house.
01:06:01
Speaker
What? The door down the door off the porch is locked. i't lock the door ah lock the basement door but I didn't lock the the the porch door. double-checked that it was not locked whenever I left. Are you sure you didn't lock yourself? I definitely locked the basement. Oh, shit.
01:06:26
Speaker
Oh, my God. i love Well, thank you for your question. Danny, what should we do? that The caller wants to know what to do. Hitch, you're more than welcome to to come hang out of my place.

01:06:55
Speaker
He said if I don't appreciate having you around, he will. Aww. Anyway, so yeah, it sounds like the roommate should probably come and let you in. What an awful roommate.
01:07:07
Speaker
you think the roommate should let this person in there? feel like the roommate should probably do the halfway decent thing and, you know, pause the stream or get up for a second to go let their roommate in. That's the funniest fucking way you could have answered the phone. Oh my god.
01:07:26
Speaker
All right, well, I will be right now. All right. I'll be there. I'll be there. Thanks for calling in, caller. Thank you. Jesus Christ. Go get it right now. ah Oh, my God.
01:07:41
Speaker
See, if they had just gotten on the stream in the audience instead of dicking around outside, they could have messaged me on here and told me that. i No, that's not as funny as this was. Yeah, this was a way better way. I hope it comes through on the audio clean enough.
01:07:53
Speaker
I mean, I heard it clear as day. Okay, very good. all right, Danny, we'll start winding down the episode while I go and let Hitch in the house. I will do that. Well, everybody, holy shit, that was a thing that just happened, hey?
01:08:06

Thank you. We appreciate you. This is a dream come true. This is something I've always wanted to do. Just sit around with my friend and just bullshit and talk and have people, you know, laugh at us. Oh, oh, look who's back. Oh, gee, it's it's the lockout guy.
01:09:07
Speaker
Turns out it wasn't me. It was just the fault in the lock. Oh my God. The lock, like it was the door. it was the knob lock. And like, you know how it's like, there's like a little button that turns left or right, like horizontal or perpendicular or vertical.
01:09:23
Speaker
I don't know how it happened, but I guess when they shut the door, like the ah little button thing was like turned like slightly diagonally. And I guess that yeah somehow. Right. did I haven't been down there. i only went in the basement. I have no idea. It was the last one in the house. Yeah. Right. Well, they went outside to have a phone call and with their mom and decided to go fuck around in the yard where they were doing it.
01:09:44
Speaker
so Because I went down in the basement and heard noises and I said, hey, what's going on? i said, do you want me to lock this door? And I said, yeah, i'm going to come in through the porch. And i was like, cool. So then I just came upstairs and started the podcast. I don't know what happened. That was crazy. Yeah, crazy.
01:09:58
Speaker
Something tells me that Hitch just wanted attention and wanted to have an excuse to be on the show. Hitch deserves attention. Hitch is a good one. Hey, hey, this is a private conversation. Hitch, you're more than welcome.
01:10:09
Speaker
To see your way out before D. You're more than welcome. the just What did you say? and I said Hitch is more than welcome. No, Hitch isn't camera ready.
01:10:21
Speaker
That's fair. It takes a lot to to put yourself out there. ah Yeah, and the makeup. God, I was in the makeup chair for two hours. Oh, dude, know. Gosh.
01:10:32
Speaker
The eyeshadow I'm wearing. Like I said, you can see how much darker it's gotten because like now the lights are really casting like a weird glow on um That's why I need to wipe my head. My head is getting shiny.
01:10:43
Speaker
Ooh, shiny head. Anyway, what were you saying? interrupted I've been doing the whole... We love you. Dream come true. we do ah tell them where they can get the merch because that's the one I forgot where to go.
01:10:54
Speaker
I did fun and sellers. Now we got is if we have a ah store, i only has one item on it right now because i'm still working on it. Whenever this comes out on audio, I might have more on there by then. It'll be a couple of weeks.
01:11:08
Speaker
um But. You it's on Etsy, just fun and sellers network. Etsy dot com slash, you know, Funds Allers Network. Just go there. Right now, we currently have up our. um ah What color is this shirt?
01:11:24
Speaker
Merch. um So if you want a shirt, this is an orange shirt. I've had several people at my place of business who are very excited about that shirt. I should get one so we can wear it on stream.
01:11:36
Speaker
Yeah, hang on. I might advocate i be in my dirty clothes. Hang on a second. Instead of this silly Dan the man shirt. so I don't forget who I am.
01:11:47
Speaker
This is a dirty version. This is for the people on who and the stream. You shirt, you. shirt that says orange shirt. Ooh, it's so dirty. And I've had so many people who are excited that they had that I had this. And they're like, where the fuck did you get that? Yeah, I need one of them.
01:12:07
Speaker
Yeah. So get your favorite color shirt on the Fundament Seller's Network store on Etsy. Again, I'm still learning how Etsy works. I know it's not as pretty as other stores yet. And frankly, i don't even know if I cared to make it that pretty.
01:12:19
Speaker
I kind of like the simplicity of it. Yeah, like I don't um I don't need to do these lifestyle pictures. Like I want our audience to find these things and to share it with people like with the merch that they wear.
01:12:31
Speaker
They always do. this Oh, lifestyle pictures are the best ways to get new merch, new fires and whatever. I was like, I'm not going because they want you to order a fuck ton of your own stuff and then wear it or like take pictures of it like in your house to make it look prettier.
01:12:45
Speaker
And it's like, i'm not going to do that. No, let's not do that. It's like I'm trying to make money. I'm not trying to spend like $6,000 on my own merchandise. But I did order this because I wanted to see what the material was like. And the material is very soft. It's very durable. I was worried about like the um the writing, but the writing holds up in the wash quite nicely.
01:13:03
Speaker
So I'm really happy with it for what I
Merchandise Goals and Community Support
01:13:05
Speaker
paid for it. I'm pretty – I think they're $20 on Etsy. Um, and they're only 20 bucks cause you have to cover certain costs. And so I think that pops us at about like $5, maybe a little bit less when you buy one, but Hey, have a bunch of people buy even like 30, 40 shirts over the next couple of months.
01:13:21
Speaker
That'd be awesome. Cause then that it kind of helps us fund the new business that we're trying to launch to help pay, uh, other small creators to live their dream a little bit more and supplement their income. And so, That's the goal for this particular, this new store coming up. So if you want to get a, this is my, what color is this shirt? shirt We have red, blue, yellow, green, black, white, and pink, I believe.
01:13:45
Speaker
um And orange, of course. And purple. Oh, there's purple because Hitch has a purple one that says purple shirt on. And I'm currently working on the bucket shirt. I've gotten requests for bucket. I'm working on bucket.
01:13:56
Speaker
um We're also making greeting cards that say congratulations on your ADHD diagnosis. So if you know anybody who you maybe you're a little. I like that one.
01:14:09
Speaker
if you're a little If you know anybody who's gotten that diagnosis for many years but never got a greeting card, boy, do we have something coming up for you. We also have one for autism. So if somebody is a late bloomer or if they've always known they never got a card for it, we're making a card for you. that's ah And Hitch designed it.
01:14:25
Speaker
So it's very exciting. And they made one for their friend who recently got a diagnosis for autism and ADHD. And they made that for them. And it really made their fucking day. So... Look forward to those as well. They say you should specialize, but we're fucking not because we're goddamn fun installers. And that's not what we do. We try to cover bases for everybody.
01:14:44
Speaker
So eat shit, stupid algorithm. I'm going do whatever the fuck I want. Anyway, that's where the store is. Fun Installers Network on Etsy. More stuff to come, but eventually it'll be
Closing Remarks and Positive Outlook
01:14:55
Speaker
