PKN 513. How you guys doing?
0:03
Oh, I'm doing good. You're
0:06
making you're back into cooking again, Kyle.
0:08
You're texting the Italian beef. I'm
0:11
always cooking. I cook
0:13
probably three, four nights
0:16
a week at least, you know, something, whether
0:18
I'm making like a frittata or some eggs
0:20
or some. I did
0:22
a I made a Crunchwrap Supreme last night. Those
0:24
were fucking delicious. I'm an expert at
0:26
that, but I've been watching that
0:28
show on Hulu called The Bear. And
0:31
it's about a this kid who used to work
0:33
20 something used to work in the
0:35
best restaurant in the world, like
0:37
the number one rated restaurant. And
0:40
his brother kills himself. His
0:42
brother owns like a Italian sausage
0:45
restaurant, like like sandwich, Italian sandwich
0:47
restaurant, both cooks. Yeah,
0:50
no, no, one of them is a
0:52
master chef. And the other thought it'd
0:54
be a fun idea to buy an
0:56
Italian beef sandwich shop. So
0:58
very much not both chefs, but
1:00
the sandwich shop owner blows his
1:02
brains out and leaves it
1:05
to his master chef brother, who
1:07
then has to pick up pieces
1:09
in a poorly ran, filthy, deep
1:12
in deeply in debt. You say pick up
1:14
pieces. Is it brain matter? Yeah,
1:17
no, not not literal pieces, figurative pieces. Is
1:19
this telling you that you're going to you're
1:21
going to kill yourself? It's how
1:23
I'm letting you know. Yes, this is
1:25
it. I'm going to start referencing lots of
1:27
programs with suicide now. And I hope
1:29
you get the message soon. It's to cry for help. We
1:33
burnt through the whole first season last night.
1:36
Granted, it's eight 30 minute episodes. So it's
1:38
not like watching, you know, I mean, still,
1:40
it's a lot, but not that crazy. And
1:43
I liked it a lot. I liked it a lot. If
1:46
you can, if you don't get bothered by
1:48
a show with lots of tension, like they
1:50
built like there'll be two characters arguing, screaming
1:52
at each other's faces, and they'll cut over
1:54
to like the mixer that's going way too
1:56
fast. And they'll cut over to the pan
1:58
that's burning over a little bit. And
2:00
like everything is going wrong in this moment.
2:02
And there's people outside screaming and nobody's happy.
2:04
And you're just like, God, break the tension.
2:06
Stop it. It's too. It just builds, builds,
2:08
builds, builds, builds, builds. But I mean, it
2:10
is like an FX TV show. So
2:13
it's like low stake tension. Oh,
2:16
my God, the beef burned. What are we going
2:18
to do? Calm down. I'm actually with
2:20
Kyle. Like if two people are screaming and then they
2:22
cut to the mixer and then they cut to the
2:24
boiling over like it's just now
2:26
it's this. Now it's that soon. There's dogs
2:28
fighting outside. Like all of these things are
2:31
low stakes, like you said, but they always
2:33
kind of watch these people die every day
2:35
as this is higher content.
2:37
And he's like once a day,
2:39
you sweet stomach is over whipping.
2:43
No, it is. I'm thinking they're going, my goodness, I'm really
2:45
going to handle this quandary. It's
2:47
ridiculous. And then you do. You
2:50
anyway, you're a good boy. They're
2:52
so deeply in debt, not only just to
2:54
the to a mobster, they're in debt to a mobster,
2:57
$300,000 for this place. And
2:59
on top of that, but he's a family friend, so he's not going
3:01
to break any legs. But still, they know this man, the money. But
3:04
also, they're so behind with their vendors. They
3:06
can't he clears the quarters out of the
3:08
arcade machines to buy meat like
3:10
on the in the first episode because they're that
3:12
broke and the vendors have cut them off. So
3:15
one bad service really does kind of make a
3:17
make everything fail. And all these people are going
3:19
to lose their jobs. And you come to like
3:21
these people. There's a big, big burly black guy
3:24
and he wants to be a baker. He's
3:26
he's obsessing over these donuts in the
3:28
back. He's buying every he's buying gourmet
3:30
donuts from around town and examining them,
3:33
trying to figure out the perfect doughnut,
3:35
the motivation. So you just watched so
3:37
many sandwiches be made in the show.
3:39
You're like, I'm going to make an Italian beef.
3:41
I'll be honest, they didn't make that many sandwiches,
3:43
but occasionally they made a sandwich. And I was
3:45
like, damn, that looks good. And I remember my
3:47
times in Chicago where I always get like hot,
3:49
hot and sweet Italian beef sandwich
3:51
and they're fucking delicious. I love that shit. And it's
3:54
cheap and easy to make, too. It's not that big
3:56
of a deal. Do you make it
3:58
in the con? I haven't made it yet. hero.
44:00
That conflict is all they're good at
44:02
it when they're just like,
44:04
also in a wall. I don't need that. Like out
44:07
of his league doesn't tell the whole story.
44:10
Right. That guy is below mid. Well, I
44:12
feel like he's glow up. It'd be like,
44:14
if he, it'd be like if that guy
44:16
was a regular schmo who looked like that
44:18
and his girlfriend was Taylor Swift. She's the
44:21
Taylor Swift of almost of their, of their
44:23
universe. Like, like she's that level popularity, I
44:25
would say. Yeah. And that guy
44:27
is a below average looking person with no
44:30
career prospects. I don't think he has a
44:32
house. I don't think he has a home
44:34
to live in. Right. He's just right. One
44:36
step above home. He might live in that
44:39
office there. Yeah. And,
44:41
and he's dating Taylor Swift inexplicably, but
44:44
it's fun to see. And he had like all this
44:46
insecurity about whether or not she's going
44:48
to, you know, he's going to lose her or whatever. And
44:50
I don't know. She's white trash
44:52
too, just like Taylor Swift. So maybe it does
44:54
make sense. But she, no, she's from
44:57
Pennsylvania. She faked the whole Southern thing. What?
45:00
No, I don't care. Yeah. I've been reckoning. So
45:02
I don't, I didn't seek this out yet. You
45:04
know, you know, that sort of thing is on
45:06
the internet when you're not looking for it, but
45:08
you stumble upon it, you know, of course, you're
45:10
talking about that. No, it's not
45:12
that, not that, not that. It's
45:17
a Taylor Swift hate subreddit called Travis
45:19
and Taylor. I'm sure there's one called
45:21
Taylor and Travis, but this is Travis
45:24
and Taylor. Do they love Travis, but
45:26
hate Taylor? They never bring him up.
45:28
Really? They just shoot it on her
45:30
at every single post. And they'll, they
45:32
have these four minute career montages of
45:35
her like being ugly or, you know,
45:37
singing poorly. Um, like instances of
45:39
her lip syncing and instances are her not lip
45:41
syncing and how bad her voice is. They have
45:43
one of her, like, and look, we're
45:45
he we're all human beings. We all get some snot
45:47
boogers, but she's like doing one of those huge stage
45:50
shows and she like blows this snot booger in her
45:52
hand. It's like, hope by her side
45:54
is dripping and like, I don't care about that,
45:56
but it was funny that one of them was
45:58
like, look at this. She has snot on her
46:00
hand. And on top of everything,
46:02
I bet she pees when we're
46:04
not looking. Probably, man.
46:07
Well, at least to that, Reddit forum is,
46:09
you know, speaking truth to power. That's what
46:11
you got to do
46:13
during these dark days. Yeah.
46:16
Well, I will not be watching the boys.
46:19
I lost interest in it. I think three
46:21
episodes into season one. I wouldn't recommend it
46:23
to you. Yeah. It's like a bad version
46:25
of what you don't already like. How is
46:27
it going to work out? Like a super
46:29
a movie or show, if it's about superheroes,
46:32
has to be so fucking good for me
46:34
to enjoy it at all. Like
46:36
like like Batman, the Nolan
46:38
Batman. I liked those. Yeah.
46:41
And even then, the the third one
46:44
was really cool up until a couple.
46:46
Actually, it was cool because I like
46:48
Tom Hardy a lot. And I was
46:50
like wanting to like his
46:53
character more. Really, honestly,
46:55
we like the second one in
46:57
that series is excellent. The
47:00
first one's fine. And the first one's grounded.
47:02
The first one feels like real life as
47:04
far as I can remember. I don't remember
47:06
any like crazy off the wall shit, I
47:08
think. Yeah. And that one
47:10
like, I mean, there's this unrealistic thing is that
47:12
Liam Neeson isn't pissing his pants. Yes.
47:15
Well, he's spotting. He's spotting. I've
47:19
heard that called spotting. But the third
47:21
one, the third one, you know, and
47:24
I love Tom Hardy. And at first it was
47:26
great. There's that scene where it all about me
47:28
beats the shit out and breaks his back. And
47:30
even the very first scene where they do that
47:32
stunt, where they're in the private jet and they
47:34
have it falls away. They get that from girls
47:37
in there. Yeah. Little fingers in there. But
47:39
when Tom Hardy had a
47:41
big bomb, I thought that was stupid.
47:43
Like his plot didn't make much sense.
47:46
We spent a good budget on one
47:48
bomb. Yeah. And then and
47:50
that's the thing. That's what I'm getting at.
47:52
He has like a thermonuclear weapon, apparently, but
47:54
nobody's got a handgun, you know, like.
47:58
I don't know what's still on the ground. He's. other
52:00
about where there's rising air and what the best way to
52:02
go places is and stuff. And on day one, they
52:05
got the better of them. On day two,
52:07
he single handedly beat all 16 of these
52:09
fuckers working together. He is a world class
52:11
pilot. He's really, really good. Anyway,
52:13
this weekend, at
52:16
the edge of the lake, there's not a
52:18
gradual beach. It's one of those lakes where
52:21
the where the water meets the land is like
52:23
a three foot vertical rise. And
52:25
a swoop landing is when you kind of
52:27
like, I
52:29
wish I could describe it, but like you you
52:31
swing in and then it like comes down, if
52:33
that makes sense. You aim at the ground like
52:35
a nut on a string, and then
52:37
you flatten out and you go really far. The
52:40
guy before him did it. And it worked well,
52:43
but he landed a little far to where he
52:45
almost like got in the water. So
52:47
Cohen is like, All right, note to self, come
52:49
in a little lower than you think so that
52:52
you don't get wet by overshooting the small patch
52:54
of grass we have to land on. And
52:57
so like a nut on a string,
52:59
he swings down and he slams into
53:02
that three foot rise where the water
53:04
meets the land. And
53:06
Cohen is just one of those guys
53:08
that doesn't break, you know, he's like
53:11
real strong and like wiry and light
53:14
and whatever. I don't know, he crashed a motorcycle five
53:16
times in a day and he just bounces up like,
53:18
I'm okay. And not
53:20
this time, man, he
53:22
spent an hour before he stood up. His
53:24
friends had to load his gear into his
53:26
car for him. Probably should have gone to
53:28
a hospital. I probably did. I
53:30
think it's an hour to get up. Yeah, I'm
53:33
trying to picture that now. Like I've been laying
53:35
here for 45 minutes unable to stand. I
53:37
don't know, maybe I'll wait it out.
53:39
Yeah. And let me try and get
53:41
up real quick. Like
53:44
other people packed his gear and put it first in
53:46
the car for him. And I assume they handled all
53:49
the boat and everything else. Like he wasn't able to
53:51
do anything. So he got hurt and I, I
53:55
try not to lecture him, but I have a
53:57
different like risk mitigation mindset. People
54:01
act like they see me flying. They're like, what are you going
54:03
to kill yourself? All right, cool. But like
54:07
I have two parachutes and I do this
54:09
stuff way up high where I have opportunity
54:11
to fix stuff. Low acro hurts. That's where
54:13
you make a mistake and you slam into
54:15
the ground. Like you like it just so
54:17
that video where the guy practice pelvis. It's
54:20
like I told him boring launches, boring landings,
54:22
exciting flights. Do it that way. But the
54:24
guy's got to go for exciting landings. I
54:26
would too. I would want to. All right,
54:29
let me say this. I see the appeal
54:31
in that, right? Like,
54:34
I was like, when the Blues Brothers would
54:36
pull in and park somewhere, they'd come in
54:38
and like, like hit the brakes and spin
54:40
the car 360 degrees and
54:42
it would slide in parallel park like
54:44
I like that. I
54:47
kind of want to like do the version of that when
54:49
I land because they didn't see all that shit I did
54:51
up there. I mean, I know I did it, but like,
54:55
yeah, I want to land on a motorcycle and like
54:57
cut my parachute away and just ride off to the
54:59
lead. I have like a hard
55:01
rules on that that I don't allow to
55:03
erode or change. Like I don't do acro
55:05
for other people. Like when I do it
55:07
at fly ins and stuff, I see other
55:09
people right over the launch and landing area
55:11
where all the people are doing their acros
55:13
so they can be watched. You
55:16
get the fuck out of here. One, your acro
55:18
is shit to your only you tried to get
55:20
us to all be like, wow, he's so good.
55:22
Get the fuck out of here. Like the
55:25
fact that he's doing it for praise makes me
55:28
think less of him. Go do it for yourself.
55:30
This is like a Rick and Morty nihilism kind
55:32
of thing. He's only doing that for praise. It's
55:34
not the joy in his heart like me. She's
55:39
not giving up the love of the game. He's not
55:41
for the love of the game. He's not. He's trying
55:43
to get me to think he's cool. Maybe he's trying
55:45
to get some arrow pussy. Is that exists or are
55:47
there? Are there are
55:50
there pair of bunnies? There's so much
55:52
of hotties over there. There's like a
55:54
girl, any girls at a paramotor event,
55:56
their wives who would drag their little
55:58
dikey, maybe if they do. You're
1:00:01
not cats.
1:00:04
Murphy. You're watching me.
1:00:07
I'm like, I'll come out of this.
1:00:10
And it was a while. I don't know how long I was laying
1:00:12
there. Not how long does it
1:00:14
hurt? Like, so we are very intense pain,
1:00:16
but a week. See, I'm in a different
1:00:18
spot. I feel like what you described
1:00:20
is more severe than what I get. I'll
1:00:23
do something wrong. One time I
1:00:25
lifted empty cardboard boxes, but like
1:00:27
kind of crooked and like lean
1:00:29
over sideways and for like
1:00:32
six weeks, eight weeks, my back
1:00:34
hurt. And when
1:00:37
weightlifting, I almost am always
1:00:39
like in this balancing
1:00:41
act between getting in good lifts
1:00:44
and making sure that my back is
1:00:46
healthy enough so that I can get in good lifts the next
1:00:48
day. And I've never had a
1:00:50
back issue, but I'm getting to to that age
1:00:52
that we'll see the first time I was 20.
1:00:54
Right. Oh, really? Yeah.
1:00:56
The first time I was 20. I
1:00:59
remember like specifically like being being
1:01:01
like, I'm stuck here. Like
1:01:04
one of my friends through to relax. Like this
1:01:06
is literally like one month ago. One
1:01:08
of my my other buddies was having a
1:01:10
big get together at his house. Big grill
1:01:12
and chill party. Everybody's going over there and
1:01:14
we're going to play later
1:01:16
on in the evening. That game, Secret Hitler, which
1:01:18
is a very fun board game. And
1:01:21
the my buddy, also the
1:01:24
Marine buddy I've talked about many times. Shout out to
1:01:26
him. He came over. He was he was texting us
1:01:28
for he's like, I'm sorry, I'm late. I just man,
1:01:31
I don't know what I did, but I really threw my
1:01:33
back out. I can't sit down. I just
1:01:35
got back from a standing visit to the hospital
1:01:37
and they gave me some some pills to take. So
1:01:40
I'm going to take these and then have my brother
1:01:42
drop me off. And, you know, I'm going to hang
1:01:44
out for a while. And he hung out for like
1:01:46
two hours and he's like, I can't sit. If
1:01:49
I sit in a narcotic and up, it was
1:01:51
a very mild like pain killer. He wasn't like
1:01:53
fucked up at all or anything. He was just
1:01:55
like, it's making it so I can walk around.
1:01:58
And I kept asking him, I'm like. So
1:02:00
what like it just out of nowhere. He's like, yeah, I
1:02:02
don't even know what caused it And I asked him again
1:02:04
later like I saw him a little I'm
1:02:06
a little scared So I'm like man, this doesn't better shape than
1:02:08
me. We're the same age Like
1:02:11
he's very physically active physically fit like so
1:02:13
nothing was happening. He's like built as He's
1:02:17
strong. He's a strong guy like
1:02:20
a healthy weight strong guy fly So Kyle
1:02:22
is like real V shaped But
1:02:24
he's not like super big in the core
1:02:26
like he doesn't look like Brock Lesnar Who's this
1:02:28
guy's big in the core like he's and
1:02:30
he still hurt wrong guy. Yeah, and he makes
1:02:33
my theory I was he's probably like five
1:02:35
nine So not a
1:02:37
super tall guy but just built and
1:02:39
he's like, yeah, I don't know what would
1:02:42
have caused it It happens right after I
1:02:44
finished teaching a kickboxing class I
1:02:54
teach kickboxing all the time. I'm like, yeah, well, this
1:02:56
is clearly what it was. You've never done it this
1:02:58
old I'm
1:03:05
like, ah, so it wasn't you know, Age
1:03:08
of Empires were good Yeah,
1:03:15
well that breaks my fear I thought like a Brock
1:03:17
Lesnar build would have a back that was Indestructible
1:03:21
and an Evander Holyfield I don't know if you know what
1:03:23
he looks like He's a real narrow waist guy would have
1:03:25
a back that was more easy to get hurt, but it
1:03:27
doesn't seem to be true Anyway,
1:03:32
I guess we should wrap up there. I'm so I
1:03:34
got hungry in like the last three minutes. I
1:03:37
had dinner I'll go eat our dinner PKN
