[Music] welcome to best friends back all right the show where two High School best friends try the best friend thing again I’m Stevie Wynn Levine and I’m naking homafed and today we’re playing a good old classic game of would you rather with maybe some not so classic questions but before we do that um how is your how was your Thanksgiving break Thanksgiving was a lot of fun this year all of the kids you know my siblings were around with their significant others plus kids and we were home for like five six days which for me was like okay you’re starting to push the boundaries yeah after three days of like you know there’s gonna be a fight that breaks out someone’s gonna someone’s gonna just not sleep the night before ruin everything ruin everything for everyone but it didn’t happen and I think it has to do with the significant others being there oh oh that’s nice I don’t know everyone was on really good behavior and we did something we’ve never done before which was play wiffle ball I don’t know what I was expecting uh surely was not Wiffle ball sure yeah okay what do you how do you play Wiffle ball isn’t it just baseball but with a plastic ball yeah oh classic ball that has has holes in it so you could get competitive with it and but we played with like you know you you hit the ball you have three shots to hit it and then you have to three shots yeah that’s what they call it and then you have to run three bases uh-huh and that’s it and you can stay on any base okay what do you mean four there are only three bases in home run I mean yeah like that that would be the next that would be because you have the first base you have the second base you have the third base and then you have home base so okay we want to call home base home base is fine we called it gold so did you go to a park you went to a field from no we did this in our backyard like next to the hill okay no this is the new house girl okay we’re playing on flat land my mom and dad were the surprise champions of this game okay oh basically the way we played it was one person The Hitter against everybody which made it super fun but like yeah I was so surprised my dad is very cocky when it comes to any kind of competitive game um but it’s really cocky for the fun of it he doesn’t necessarily win but he just is all talk and he ended up hitting a few home runs wow and just doing it and my mom she managed to to to do a really great job too she didn’t run to the right bases but she ran all the way around that’s not what counts yeah right yeah guys looking good looking good beautiful ball and I’m I’m gonna say do physical activity on family vacations it makes a difference that is the lesson I learned well so I I took you to do some physical activity right yeah well a different kind of physical activity I took two like mini trips during the break I went to um big bear with Cassie and Ringo and a friend joined us halfway through for a few days and then I also went to Vegas was Big Bear what kind of trip was yeah it’s cabin there’s there was snow on the ground it wasn’t a like skiing type of trip it was more like a hiking trip and then also I believe it was the first time Ringo’s ever been in the snow he’s certainly the walk exhibited that um yeah there was a hesitancy like when you put dogs in Boots um he also encountered uh do you know those Billy the bass uh fish that are mounted on the wall yes that was his big Discovery and they somehow never shut the [ ] up either well he believed I I think that there was a real live fish mounted to this cabin’s wall and he freaked the [ ] out and I told you last time he took a trip he met a a real a toad in real life this time he’s thinking this thing’s real on the wall Billy the best and a little song I wrote he’s like um and he guarded Billy the bass for the remainder of the 24 hours that we were there because he okay I don’t know if he was afraid of uh Billy the bass like getting yeah or he wanted to protect Billy the Bass from other people but um I I appreciated that reaction that was the most uh fun part of Big Bear other than the fact that down the street Big Bear is an interesting place Jason and down the street from us there was a cabin uh flying a Confederate flag which made me feel safe uh made me feel like you know what they’re intelligent people here surrounding me who love who I am oh is that is the is are the demographics of Big Bear I think it’s a little similar to the Virginia yes little hillbilly it’s a little okay uh redneck I didn’t know that yeah wow that’s okay we we um we stayed inside with Billy the bass and had our little artisanal chicken pot pies and all the other lesbian things that we do um so you guys when you go on these trips you’re going to the grocery store and you have a menu yeah oh well up there because it’s not like I wanna yeah you don’t want to go to the restaurant fair in that in that particular way and then um and then yeah I hit up hit up Vegas uh with the parents and yeah what was that like that you end up going to see Magic Mike uh we did not we did see a Cirque show huh uh we saw um love the The Beatles show which was I mean the production value of any of those shows is just absolutely insane like the entire day I’m thinking about the director and the stage managers and how everything is off perfect you know at the right time and like it was more of a dance forward show than a stunt circus forward show uh but I still really enjoyed it and then we saw um saw Chris Angel Mind free okay that’s like Chris Angel to me I love all the memes that like make fun of him because he’s just an easy person to mimic oh I haven’t I haven’t seen these memes I don’t know what I was thinking I was I was like you know what it’d be fun to see a magic show in Vegas because that’s you know that’s the home of of magic shows and uh and he’s you know he’s someone I’m familiar with um but I wasn’t I didn’t really I didn’t calculate a little shorts uh get the surround like him his his whole shtick his like tight leather pants his yeah you know 2005 Hot Topic Ed Hardy I feel like a senior citizen crowd huh well and I will say you know pork not poor guy I don’t mean and I I thought about this I was like do I want to talk about on the podcast because I don’t want to be mean to Chris Angel you know Chris Angel doesn’t deserve it but I just I couldn’t help but feel that like um you know the posters of him have the the eight pack with the eyeliner and he’s like oh really it’s very and then he gets out there and he has an age-appropriate body type you know like he has like um no there’s there’s no longer a six-pack there you know like the tight leather pants are still tight leather pants but um but the top part is uh is looking different you know and I just Googled a picture of this poster Chris Angel Mind Freak and that’s the other thing is that like the self hype within the show I couldn’t take like it’s like now it’s time for my number one signature best voted everyone loved it the most for 15 years trick and you’re like oh God and then um okay I’m not gonna lie yeah it’s kind of hot oh did you look up a picture of today yeah okay great Hey listen everyone else was loving it he’s got a hot look but he’s sure his hair situation is it does he have the bangs he has long hair now um he has long hair and you know there’s a bit where he’s like I need four ladies from the crowd to join me in the club you know it’s like that type of vibe where you’re like Cassie’s like Yay oh my God and now the other thing is like Cassie’s like laughing the whole time Meanwhile we’re surrounded by people who are like very into this I’m like please they’re interesting they will they will bounce bounce on us that’s not what I meant to say they were pounce on us uh for your laughter we also um I you know I I made sure that we had good tickets for everything and uh we made sure that our moms had the best seats out of the row that we got so like we pushed them towards the middle yeah not realizing that like it was a very intense show so like almost right from the bat his appearance like there’s just fire everywhere and you’re feeling like the Heat and then like all of a sudden this like big like plume of smoke with like all this like trash is like as he’s trying to get out of this straight jacket like everything’s just blowing around the whole area no it sounds like a mess we yeah we peer over at our moms who are there like just after our steak dinner like in their little Cardigans and just like [ ] like jizz is like all over their face and we’re like oh God you know I’m sorry we thought those were the best seats they’re like oh and he’s like mine freak and they’re like oh God um because they’re British and it was just uh a time it was a time but you know I I will say it was the best time I’ve ever had in Vegas uh because it was I mean there’s uh yeah I can’t I we gotta move on because I feel I feel bad I feel bad but you know there’s it just the show opens with like a five minute reel of every time Chris Angel’s been mentioned in any kind of TV show or movie yeah okay so this is the end for him this is the end if he’s doing memorials for himself yeah he’s alive it’s not right I just I’m like obviously he’s a talented dude like some of the tricks were like were mine freakish but like just everything else are just like it’s just like let’s can we can we wipe away that bit and can we just stick where the where you levitate into the air and appear in different places and like can you just [ ] fly and shut up wow well I I wish we had a magic show in Greensboro North Carolina to go to well it sounds like you did with your dad who was a magic with the whistle ball you know yeah well we had to come up with our own kind of entertainment like the physical like the Wiffle ball but we also played this this game of would you rather I’ve never played this game with my family before who who prompted this did you did you suggest it definitely okay did you use the same questions that we’re going to be using today did you see in prep for this uh and you’re coming in with much better answers than I have is that what you’re gonna say no no I mean there were some of these questions we we did do but this website Logan what’s the name of this website let’s give credit where credit is due I think it’s an embarrassing website I think it’s like yeah 100 parade yeah parade.com okay there you go go guys but there are 250 there are like hundreds of questions here so we did a few of them and it was a very very uh interesting to hear the multi-general generational response to some of the processing and yeah yeah my mom had I am a hard time answering hypothetical questions to start like she was like upset with the premise of the question yeah and would try to answer it differently like no you have two options which one do you want yeah we got into it you know there was some fun stuff I have a would you rather question because this is also something I experienced in Vegas the hotel the hotel was really nice that we stayed at and the bathroom lighting um they cared you know there was like that that makeup mirror that’s uh magnifying that has the built-in lighting there’s like the lighting around the um mirror the glove and um and the glow and I was just like really taken aback by never seeing my face that close up before and oh you can see little detail every little wrinkle every little blemish and I was thinking to myself um you know do I need where’s that medicine I see this yeah seriously and so yeah so my would you rather question is would you rather have would you rather see yourself in in lighting and magnified and every little detail before you go out every morning or would you rather live in what I call lesbian lighting which is my house which is like very dim spots of light where you can’t fully see what you look like so you have like more confidence before you go out but you’re also not seeing yourself uh properly which one do you choose would you rather I’d rather feel like I look good than them and not see and not see the details yeah okay it’s like those skinny mirrors you know the mirror there’s some mirrors that just look better than others a little tighter yeah you’d rather have that me too I’d like a good tight mirror because ultimately my the image I have of myself is usually just the one ice like that stays with me more than the random glances that I get during the day glance because who doesn’t walk by a reflection and look at themselves because right then today I have [ ] all over my face and I’m like damn it I forgot again I forgot that you’re supposed to look in the mirror and make sure you don’t have Kool-Aid lips I don’t know I haven’t had Kool-Aid in a long time but okay you know what I’m talking about that like I know that Ring The Ring The Ring yeah but that always confused me because I’m like what kind of animal are you that you’re drinking this Kool-Aid with your lip fully submerged which then means your nose is close to the liquid like I think it’s more you know what I think I’m thinking of um is did you have that kid in elementary school who licked their lips because they like and then they got really chapped and then like all around their lips is like chapped red I think that’s that’s the Kool-Aid lips that I’m thinking about okay and you’re just like Aquaphor baby Aquaphor yeah yeah anyway okay shall we ask some other yeah or other questions Logan you’re gonna you’re gonna take us through right yeah I’m gonna take you guys through take us all right first question is would you rather be Roy royalty one thousand years ago or an average person today this is a very obvious answer for me oh excuse excuse me are you watching the season of the crown is what I was gonna say I’m not do you watch the crown I’ve seen the I saw the first two seasons okay it’s a slow burn it’s like a it’s like a Madness Slow Burn I’m into it though it took me a minute uh yeah to creep in but there’s you know they kind of [ ] on royalty a lot I just want you I just want to let you know though that just I don’t know if this was clear to you when you were watching it the crown is like from this last century yeah okay I knew you were going to say that yes yes yes well we yeah you’ve already said that that’s like one of your three places that you would time no no you traveled even further back than a thousand years for royalty but my answer is average person today really 100 why years ago your life expectancy was so low it was dirty as hell you live in Fast and large baby I feel like the way that oh it was just it seemed so scary scary and dirty okay yeah I see that I think the average person today has a much nicer life than yeah you’re not gonna have a couple jewels and a fur you know and I’m not I’ve never been into jewelry I’m not one for no jewelry no what about fur well uh for large amounts of land what about do you want land no I think that um the the dirty thing if you yeah I think it’s really like how can you no because as a royal you’re not living in dirty dirty land okay yes they are yes they are no no no I’m talking like most pampered like most powerful most rich person in the entire you know World situation you’re living fine but everyone else is living in literal [ ] and so then you smell that very bad yeah yeah no but I’m not saying like smell like I’m fine with smelling [ ] uh but I’m not fine with like everyone around me playing and [ ] and I’m not playing in [ ] you know like I’d like to also be playing in in the [ ] so yes I would pick today as well and then if I want to play and [ ] I can you know I have those options I went to Vegas you know so yes I I agree I would rather be a normal person now boy this is fun average what would your dad average yeah my dad would be like why are we even talking about living as other people why shouldn’t we be talking about living on the moon and what that’s like [ ] egg this is why you didn’t have a lot of friends growing up oh I’m talking about [Laughter] I feel like this should have been like a drinking game of some kind right that would have been fun so then you have to pick like which one you have to drink right now like there’s a right and a wrong answer nope it’s actually royalty from a thousand years take a shot okay would you rather have to hunt and gather all of your food or eat McDonald’s for every meal well I’m trying to I think my issue with this game is I might over analyze the logic like the like the practicality of it you know like but because like let’s say tomorrow you said Stevie it’s now it’s time to hunt and gather your own food like what would I do I’d be like all right I’ll see if I can move around my meetings my shoots my recordings and didn’t I’ll just pop into Griffith Park for a moment and try and like get started you know but if you’re saying like Okay tomorrow lifestyle you can’t yeah you have to Everything’s changed you have to move out into the Wilderness and you know there’s no capitalism isn’t really a thing however you need to get yourself there to answer this hypothetical question is totally accurate it’s totally accurate well because I McDonald’s makes me feel like [ ] I gotta be honest fast food makes me feel really really bad every single time and so I think I would Hunt and Gather I’m just saying I’m thinking to the practicality of it like yeah that’s my problem with the question is that like you know you’re eating at McDonald’s McDonald’s exists you’re you’re somewhere where McDonald’s exists or you’re in the forest you know I think I total I want to be the person I really want to be that person that’s like I’m gonna hunt and I’m gonna gather and I’m mostly vegetarian yeah I think I’m mostly Gap like I’m gonna mostly gather yeah I would love to be that woman but I’m not you pick McDonald’s I would pick McDonald’s because there are a few things on that menu that I think could keep me healthy okay you’d be creative you’d be creative with it okay so you’re like taking the ingredients and you’re trying to yeah yeah I can see that I’m gonna treat McDonald’s like a little Buffet like a little little thing and and I gotta say something this would be like my not my every Day breakfast but a once a week breakfast that McGriddle sandwich have you had that you know this recently came up I think on Good Mythical More that I don’t believe I have and I always get the biscuit and apparently I’m wrong take a shot the McGriddle well don’t feel so badly I had it for the first time this year oh and I’ve heard it’s great it was wonderful the perfect combination of sweet and savory so you’d have just like a McGriddle every day is what you’re saying McGriddle once a week salads and Grilled Chicken the rest of it okay yeah I think if back to the hunt and gather I’m thinking like you know yeah we we’re off the grid we have a big Garden you know you’re you’re you’re you’re what is it called like homesteading I could do that I’m not gonna be killing anything so I would be just a vegetarian um but a lot of bees and green beans and greens yeah a lot of beans I’m gonna be eating a lot of bees foreign thinks is an idiot or an idiot everyone thinks is a genius man I already I feel like there are a lot of people that fall into both of these categories that fall into the category of idiots that people think are geniuses yeah and they seem to be doing great they seem to be yeah nice life but I don’t know if they have that awareness dude that’s what I was gonna say like I hate to like break down the question that way but like yeah are you are you are you in a position where you’re like I know I’m an idiot I don’t know what the answer to this next thing is oh I’m gonna wing it this time again like I always do because I’m a [ ] and hopefully people still buy it or are you yeah no I’m a genius I’m a genius I feel like we should assume for this question that you know what you are you know you’re an idiot but I know I’m a genius or that I’m an idiot yeah it’s just other people’s perceptions of you are what’s different I think you would be really hard to be a genius and have people think you’re an idiot I feel like that would be a really lonely life yeah and the other one would not be a lonely life like to be an idiot that people think are a genius like he will have people around you and is that ultimate is not being a lonely ultimately better well and also like what comes from that like like I’m thinking not that I’m saying that Elon Musk is an idiot per se but you know you know you’re you’re perceived as a genius therefore you have all this wealth and power and friendship and like people who are surrounding you yeah versus the opposite support exactly that doesn’t happen people think you’re an idiot right I picked that I’d pick a an idiot who people think is a genius yeah you’re right got dark got really dark take a shot a little bit sad it’s a little bit sad and Logan’s letting us kind of steep in this sadness I’m gonna just sick sit with our thoughts okay would you rather have a personal maid or a personal chef oh personal made is that like a Butler though or they really mean like would you rather have someone clean for you or cook for you yeah yeah I think that’s what they mean or have somebody open the door for you because Butler that’s a great call maybe you’re somebody that [ ] somebody to open the door opening doors my God my God definitely I would love to have a personal masseuse that’s what I would love to do yeah I got a deep tissue recently I almost cried right there on the table really it was a personal challenge for me I was like how much of this can I take and I knew she was like let that titty fall out let me see those titties made for sure really really because you really hate cleaning cleaning takes so much more time so from a Time perspective I’d rather have that covered and though I don’t love cooking I like it yeah and I feel like if that doesn’t bother me as much as cleaning I have noticed about myself especially like in my relationship that I um I like things very organized I like surfaces that are clean in the sense that like they you know their everything is in the right place when you walk into my house like I don’t like you know the dogs whatever being out and shoes being out and the stack of papers being out all those things like that’s my if if those things are out I it feels like things are not in order for me and like there’s like a mental connection there I’m not great at like the cleaning part though I’m very great at the this goes heidiness part you’re very tidy not necessarily very or you’re probably clean but you’re I’m clean enough um yeah but uh and then Cassie if you leave Cassie in the house all day like the tornado that she and she recognizes it about herself but she will do the thing where it’s like I will eat this I will open a package and I will leave the package out and I will leave the cabinet door open and I will leave three glasses here and then also she leaves the cabinet doors open I mean that not as much as as the like you basically you could narrate her day you could follow her around yeah yeah yeah now she’s gotten really good at then going back and like you know yes yeah um because she gets very annoyed when I do that when I walk in the house but I will say she’s better at like the cleaning part okay than I am which is it’s an interesting Dynamic totally I kind of I guess I agree I think the argument for personal chef is more like health related like wouldn’t it be nice to have breakfast lunch and dinner with the exact right nutrients and calories and it was delicious and like it was always there for you right but yeah cleaning cleaning is just not fun you can make cooking fun you can’t make cleaning what really unless yeah you hate it my girlfriend Cooks so I clean that’s our compromise oh okay okay because I cannot cook and she’s a really good cook but I don’t like cleaning either but I have to do it yeah so you’d rather not do either one Logan’s a lazy [ ] maybe you need to be in a thrupple okay would you rather get away with a terrible crime but live in fear of someone discovering it or go to prison for three years for a crime you didn’t commit oh wow this is a very hard question oh going to prison is really scary I don’t think I’m made for prison I think it would be really hard I think I would make friends okay let’s let’s think about this I I think I would make a strong effort to make alliances but but kind of make them based on friendship and kindness try to build community um maybe have like a little book club but with it when it comes to any kind of like physical altercations I’m out like I I will I will what do you call like samurai sword yourself rather than like threaten get the threat of somebody hurting you could play you could play dead though just possum it you know yeah I think that um I would lose not that I have a lot of faith in the system but I would lose even more faith in the system and in life if I was in prison for three years for something that I didn’t do and I think it would I don’t know how it would come out of that route yeah like because you would imagine those three like you’re not just gonna be like oh that’s three years you’re gonna you’re gonna you know appeal be fighting you know trying to you know uh while still in jail while in jail and then also like the fact that it would have on your family members who are also like what the [ ] she didn’t do okay very interesting who knows what they would do and then like what other cushions would come of it because you were labeled you know whatever and wow so then the rest of your life you know I just don’t think it’s that clean I don’t think it’s as clean as like serving your time and then and then being out of there that’s a really great point I did not think about the effect it would have on my family they would be devastated and what if the crime that you committed that no one knows about actually was for a good reason you know okay Robin Hood yes what if it was around what if it was a Dexter situation you know okay and and there’s no rules in this game saying that you that I can’t say that so so I win okay okay all right that’s what I would choose you’re going with the book club in jail no okay no I I really like uh I I like your reasoning thank you um I think the I think living with the fear of being found out yeah would be really [ ] hard for me yeah it’s hard to like so I think I would still pick jail okay um and just see my family every week at visiting time okay and just let them know let them clean the house yeah yeah that’s hey that’s true you get that personal uh chef would you rather go backstage with your favorite band or be an extra on your favorite TV show oh the crown yeah that is not my favorite TV show am I the only one um and she was like ma’am you’re an extra please do not do not improv in the scene with the queen what is my favorite TV show do you have a favorite TV show I’m really enjoying White Lotus right now oh I haven’t I haven’t picked up that new the new season yet there’s a lot of things that I want to see that I haven’t started because the crown is so long I want to see you as an extra in A League of Their Own oh oh can we bump can I just like to be more than an extra you know this is why I would choose backstage with a band yeah because uh yeah because it’s like boring being an extra yeah it’s like a long day of not talking and I’m sure it can be cool and fun to see it all happen but once you’re an extra on a show yeah you can’t be you can’t have like a larger or different role so for me that would just be cannibalizing yeah yeah yeah no that is a really good point is like the experience for for the day like what is that like you go backstage in a show that’s really fun you just saw or you’re going to see a really awesome show from a different perspective yeah the different perspective that you see the TV show from is not not the best as an extra I would I would imagine that’s a very good point what show would you go to oh what show oh my God that’s a great one although I would want to see her from the front oh you know because it’s such a I think seeing her well you’re not an actor you’re not actually like watching the backs of them by the way I mean we need to go I stage initial oh my God this is just proving that I haven’t been backstage at any show I’m such a loser you’re like it’s so weird how I don’t see any of the people back in the stage watching her back from where I’m sitting no here’s the show I would go to I would go to any Heim show in which Taylor Swift is going to make a surprise appearance that’s the show I would go backstage for and then just yes bump into all of them like oh you want would you like to also wear the leather pants with my top off and be with you yeah okay we can do that I don’t mind watching your back what I came with this what I came it’s just like a change Logan what extra would you be which or what show would you see I can see oh you’re trying to put Logan on a show Road Rules real world oh God extras in that now they do I could see you killing that oh thank you I think is that a good thing it means you’re a backstabbing person I’m just kidding I’m kidding that was a joke okay would you rather fall down in public or fart in public do you think this is in this question this is an audible fart It’s gotta be it’s Gotta Be an audible fart definitely audible false and fall I have fallen down so many times in public it’s so funny really yeah oh my God I when I went to um Tokyo most recently we were um I had read about like oh there’s these cute cafes in this area where everyone eats outside and I was like let’s let’s go to this place I fell off the curb I fell off the curb in front of sitting you were patrons no no I walked I I walked off the curb uh and like twisted my ankle onto the thing and then and you know there’s no recovery no there’s no recovery so okay you saw you felt the shame and then I farted what the fart have been worse I feel like the fart is worse I think somehow the fart is worse I don’t know I don’t know if I ever been I don’t know if I’ve ever um witnessed that I think I feel like I’ve witnessed a lot of fallings not a lot of farting have I ever witnessed a loud audible fart from someone who didn’t like and I feel like if I have it’s been like a dude who’s like you know like you’re like yeah he makes it more funny you know I feel like the what’s wrong with the fart is that it is negatively impacting others in a way that the fall is not to fall as positively impacting others yeah right it’s entertainment only you were hurt the fart is you’re embarrassed but you’ve also you know just yeah intoxicated the environment for some reason I have to agree with you yeah I don’t know for some reason it’s called good logic but I think there are a lot of people that would I think people some people would do the fart because they’re like it would be funny well you could also maybe get away with it depending on like where you were and you know you do a little like you could blame you Can’t Blame a fall yeah have you ever have you ever blamed somebody else for your fart no oh I definitely have really no I wouldn’t I put that on someone else maybe I’ve been like I would ah who is that was that you no it’s it’s you know what does that smell but I wouldn’t be like you farted person all right I’ll say something different next time I do it okay we’re gonna get a little sad here no oh great thanks Logan would you rather lose your long-term memory or your short-term memory oh okay oh that’s not as sad as I thought oh yeah um Alzheimer’s dementia no that’s pretty sad well we didn’t need to take take it there basically would you rather not remember what you had for dinner which I already don’t really remember yeah yeah or like what you’re you know partner’s name is because the short term can be very frustrating it’s like losing your keys you know and I think it’s very common right yeah like don’t focus on it although we could make something of the long term it could also be like well you don’t remember you know fifth grade it doesn’t have to mean like yeah you know you don’t remember the first part of your life or something necessarily we have a neighbor um here in DC who I think has like early signs of memory loss and it is very uh what I I don’t know if it’s just an age thing like oh you know you start forgetting things if that’s the short-term part of it or if it’s the beginnings of a serious like Dementia or something yeah yeah but and it’s exacerbated when she drinks so if she’s had like a couple wines and she comes over I kid you not this woman told me the same very detailed story six times that was really sad yeah with the with the memory part that’s really sad I’ve had that happen to me with a dude who drank way too much and it was the weirdest experience ever where he told me a story with the same like beats intonations everything was drink had had like only not only but it had a six pack or you know something like that and was still drinking and then like there was a beat of Silence and then he proceeded to tell me the exact same thing again and I just was like I don’t know how to I don’t know I guess I’m just gonna pretend like you didn’t just tell me every single thing that you just it was the weirdest [ ] thing that’s the weirdest [ ] thing we also have a neighbor that has dementia and he is so nice but he um always says the same greeting and I can’t remember exactly what it is but it’s something like pretty nice day for an old guy you know something like that and he’s he takes his dog on a walk every day around the same time and he says almost the same thing every single day and I’m like you know what he seems like a happy dude though like you know yeah it seems like a happy dude living in Bliss so I don’t know what what would your answer be I think I would prefer to have my long-term memories because I think that would mean I would have more like access to my relationships with people yeah so like I would preserve that and then and then short term would be like the stuff that doesn’t matter as much like losing your keys or what you had for dinner the problem is that this the short term would mean that that would make my daily life difficult yeah and or the like Zach’s life difficult yeah you know what I mean it’s like exactly she forgot her keys again I feel like Zach already has short-term memory loss yeah I feel like I do too yeah I think I agree with you though just because of that because I already feel like I have a little bit of short-term memory loss yeah right yeah oh like you can employ people to help you with the short-term memory thing sure like if you have a personal maid a personal chef yeah these people can take care of that stuff all right let’s go back to happy let’s go back I was gonna just question keep it sad for just no 20 more seconds okay I just have it I was thinking about this in Colorado okay you’re you’re adding on to this yeah okay with Chris Hemsworth the stuff that’s going on with him what’s going on with him I’m sorry I don’t know I don’t typically don’t Logan is tearing up right now guys she’s really it’s about to be sad and we’re about to be [ ] no so okay so he he found out that he’s at a high risk of developing Alzheimer’s okay would you both want to know early that you’re at high risk so that you can try to prevent it or would you not want to know I am already so I mean I’m hoping that there’s I mean there’s there’s some kind of genetic or yeah it’s genetic so uh you know they’re they’re trying to develop cures I donate to the Alzheimer’s cure whatever it’s called going to the right place yeah uh the cure Alzheimer’s fund I think that’s what it is okay uh they also like you know there’s books about like eat This Not That like it’s a lot of like don’t eat processed things don’t eat McDonald’s go hunt and gather so but it’s also like you know what are you gonna yeah do yeah you know what were you thinking Logan I don’t think I’d yeah I don’t think I’d rather not know but there’s those tests that like you know you can find out your risk for all this stuff and I’m like I would not want to know any of that stuff I kind of agree it’s like the the questions of I’m sure there’s one on this list about like wanting to know the day you die or like yes yeah or whatever like I don’t know yeah I don’t want to go at all I don’t want to know I’d rather be an idiot that everyone thinks is a genius to that question I would want to know yeah the day okay I died and not at the how oh okay I think the how would be really it could be troubling and if I know when then I can work my way back and be like okay well this is the amount of time I have to do there’s something nice about that yeah yeah and as a planner yeah you just fit into my well I’m dying on Thursday lifestyle so we could have lunch on Monday this accent is giving me you think I’m gonna die when I’m old which I love yeah yeah why would like notice such a mean thing if I was like no I think you’re gonna die next year you’re gonna die take on a modern young woman’s accent yeah [Music] I’m gonna throw one in here it’s gonna be a happy one uh we’ll see okay it’s a it’s a weird take on the idiot genius one okay you guys might hate answering this but I’m gonna ask it anyway great would you rather have sex with a goat [Music] again I hate it already I hate this already and no one know or not have sex with a goat but everybody think you did this is a Black Mirror episode I would rather not have sex hey people think that like if people think that I’ve had sex with a goat I’ll just play into it like that’s right no it wasn’t bad no you won’t you’ll be crucified you’ll be people are not cool with animal human sex it’s just there are lots of examples where people are not sure listen your incredibility they would have to I would I would be the first person canceled for having sex with a goat even though I didn’t have sex with a girl yeah but you know what I’ve been canceled for things that I haven’t done before uh and still here I am so Rhett and Link would have to vouch for me not having sex with a goat um and I would not like to have sex so that’s firmly my answer wow I I was assuming in this question that like now everyone’s gonna all I don’t have there’s no recourse there’s no PR scheme that’s going to be able to prove me in a scent and this and this hypothetical I’m assuming that tilled my deathbed when I’m an old lady people will be like oh yeah making home my fat goat [ ] I thought you were saying in the case that you had sex with a goat and no one knew that there was no then that then it’s totally fine because no one knows and so they’re afraid to have sex with the the goat I thought that’s what is that that’s kind of what yours kind of what I’m saying is that I’d oh my God would you rather have sex with a goat and this cannot be the clip that was used oh my God she wants to have sex with a goat well it depends on what’s a dog knocks on the studio is everything okay sexually this is definitely the clip making because now everyone needs to know that you want to have sex with Nadine wants to have sex with a girl naked and the Goat sitting in the tree f-u-c-k-i-n-g um rated R version of the song I think that I think that there are multiple definitions for sex and so we’re gonna just have you’re gonna like get it off with your hand like what are you saying this is gonna be like you have to be a [ ] like what is happening I’m just saying you’re gonna give a goat a [ ] is what you’re saying I just don’t want people to think that I’ve had sex with a goat and believe it I don’t want that to be my reputation so therefore you will have sex with a goat yeah I need you to say it yay yay Logan Logan you would do it too I’d be in a goat trouble that takes hunting and Gathering to a whole new level yes you’re gonna be you’re gonna be at McDonald’s you’re gonna be having your salads and [ ] a goat great it’s gonna be a little consensual loving relationship it’s not gonna be like that I do I do like the goat as the purple no the goat can’t clean so two goats and one me no no no two no no no no no no no the goat can’t be in there yeah oh [Applause] that’s what she said just now okay hey Logan remember that question that you said we were gonna hate you for I do I know I knew you might need your McDonald’s salad all right can I ask a question that I found really fun in here oh retaliation yeah would you rather be in jail for five years back to jail or be in a coma for a decade I like that I like the Cinematic Narrative of a coma I do I do um there’s okay I think I would pick coma and the other reason is that like talk about time traveling you know it’s like and then you have you know Andy is sure there’s some stuff you have you’re 10 years older you’re probably have jelly legs also like you know your partner could have left you in that time um you know people could have died in that time you’re waking up to a new uh world it’s not great neither one of these situations is great which is why it’s a good question I think yeah but but to the to the jail part I’ll go back to my previous answer which is like five years in jail isn’t just five years in jail it’s it changes changes your entire life changes everything so does the comet coma just said that like your whole family’s Gonna Leave You you abandoned you in some way yeah yeah I guess one situation you kind of leave maybe like some like jacked and then the other situation yeah favorite was my so my family answered this question oh this was my favorite question because Zach was on the side of he’s like yeah jail he’s like we’ll make friends he’s like you leave in great shape why did he use the Royal Wii we’ll make friends he said oh maybe he was thinking about us in jail together oh I don’t know he’s a nut he’s a good man okay I’m by his side uh and my mom was like without missing a beat she was like coma this is what we’re all sitting around the table she’s like I just wanna rest you’re like this is fantastic we your whole family is here and you just can’t wait for us to leave so well she actually she would also be in a good place for a coma you know like her partner is not gonna be leaving her family’s gonna be around translation you’re like her partner has no other prospects at his age well if he keeps winning Wiffle ball the way that he’s been winning it yeah but yeah you know there’s a comfortability there you know she’s good she’s good uh she’s good with the coma I get her answer and with a coma you were in ostensibly like the best medical care you’re being yeah you’re being monitored you’re safe yeah you’re getting that Soylent You’re Not Safe in jail uh true why so would you pick coma coma yeah I’m too scared of jail five years yeah you’d make friends like you said in a coma yeah but the thing is five years is a long long time you know hey but if we’re all living in the simulation you know you can still get some stuff done in a coma uh you can live you can live at 10 years in a in in in a in a coma you know at 10 different years what I don’t know what do you mean I’m not sure goat [ ] disgusting all right okay would you rather never be able to keep anyone else’s Secrets or have someone tell all of your secrets okay so would you rather be a blabber mouth right or would you rather be a like complete open book or like have no privacy I would just I would I would be a blabbermouth but I would tell people don’t tell me don’t tell me your secrets I’m gonna blabber them don’t don’t I would I would uh do that thing where you put your fingers in your ears don’t I know I look trustworthy so then you will you would create the situation where people avoid you yeah yeah I want to be avoided okay great that works out I think I would rather have my secrets be told I don’t know which is such a surprising it’s a really surprising answer it’s more it’s not Noble it’s it’s for my self-interest oh but what about that time that you [ ] that goat yeah oh no I hate myself I hate myself [Music] everyone’s gonna know I wanna know how many other goat [ ] there are out there you let me know okay guys tweet at us tweet only tweet only at Stevie win Levine she wants to know me don’t tell anyone else but Stevie okay we may have touched on this a little briefly in a previous episode but I don’t think we definitively said but would you rather be stuck in space or at the bottom of the ocean oh yeah because these are both negan’s fears right in a way wait is it so sorry is you’re stuck in either one say it again permanently yeah what is it well I change it up a little bit so this one says would you rather visit the International Space Station for a week or spend a week in a hotel at the bottom of the ocean I want a nicer question to make it a little bit more more that is a much nicer question okay fine we’ll do that one we’ll do that one because we don’t have to imagine our looming death yes seriously okay we’ll do that one yeah I mean yeah in your version of the question either way you die almost immediately there’s not being stuck there I also love the idea that this is it’s an Excursion like it’s an Airbnb experience that takes you to the International Space Station or at the depths of the ocean yeah which one okay so as as the your fears being both being lost in the ocean or space yeah but which one would you want to visit if you like there’s safety involved and like sure you know both of these options not Logan’s version I think the bottom of the ocean really because well it’s primarily a safety thing which is the chances of I think like there are so many more failed attempts to go to this International like going to really going I don’t know those stats then going I feel like there’s so many submarines there’s so many things that go down and that’s like an old technology that’s just been like I don’t know if it’s perfected but I’m not hearing a lot about drownings yeah but I hear a lot about like rock I don’t know rocking so I feel like I feel like my delivery delivery to the bottom of the ocean would be safer um but it’s going to be so goddamn dark yeah yeah there’s no goats down there either so would you be okay yeah yeah that’s a great Point Logan I didn’t think about that the space goats are nice and Light it’s gonna be so hard to engage in any kind of affection when there’s no gravity uh what would you do I would definitely go to space definitely because like you can sure fine take a [ ] submarine we could book one tomorrow I love the confidence because I kind of would believe you if you want a submarine I feel like you could book it yeah let’s do our next episode um but like not many people get to go up into space to the International Space Station and listen like I’m not doing anything risky up there you know I’m clinging you know it’s my thing I have the same philosophy when I fly like people are scared of flying I’m like if I die then like why am I worried about it like I’m just gonna die so like I would have the same mentality on the on the rocket that you always hear so much about that how can you have that mentality when all of your answers to these other like [ ] coma jail questions was like but what about my family and the people who would be affected and you’re just gonna go die on them well no Cassie’s gonna be good yes okay yeah it’s both of you it’s all or nothing you see how I got a family yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah okay so you’re down in the ocean with the safe safe submarines and I’m up in space okay that’s fair your view is going to be uh a lot better listen both dark yeah both both are dark both are dark okay this is a good one would you rather be trapped in a romantic comedy with your enemies or trapped in a horror movie with your friends inside inside like you’re in the story you’re living the story yeah would you rather your life be a rom-com with your enemy or a horror with your friends I would say rom-com with Eminem Andy’s the horror the horror with your friends is like uh what’s that I Know What You Did Last Summer yeah yeah or like Cabin in the Woods that’s so scary that’s so yeah I mean like your anxiety level would just I mean my exciting levels all is there Xanax in the world in our world if there were Xanax let me just say that as soon as you’re in that horror like life or death situation your friendships are dissolving very Oh I thought you’re gonna say the opposite because you you um you there’s like a trauma Bond until one of you dies and then it becomes about how can you protect yourself and it becomes clear that it’s a zero-sum game what who has thought about this not me romantic comedy with your could you imagine being in a rom-com with popular girl number two yeah your arch hell yeah yeah well I guess it would be romantic yeah absolutely it’s like a enemies to lovers story okay so you would have a happy birthday to enemies to lovers in a rom-com yeah there’s always a happy 100 yeah did you know that at the end of like it’s either the Hallmark ones or the lifetime I think it’s Hallmark movies the kiss is not allowed to happen until the very last moment is it also a rule in those movies that someone has to have a terminal illness while living in a small town yeah it’s small town yeah okay one more one more would you would you rather poop in the only toilet at a party knowing that you’ll clog it or poop in the bushes in the backyard oh my gosh at the party yeah yeah bushes in the backyard well okay if it’s a big house party there’s a lot of people there you poop in the toilet and you run but what if there’s a line at the door which I’m assuming if it’s a wonderful when you run and all the movies show one listen is anyone gonna talk about like oh my God she no one cares that you poop Everyone Poops you could poop and you can clog listen is it gonna be a pleasant experience no it’s no one you don’t want anyone to walk in on your poop just like clog in the toilet but if you’re the girl who poops in the bushes and then and then that’s what you’re known for is like oh my God that’s the girl who pooped in the bush that’s people will talk about that people are not going to talk about you pooping in the toilet people are not gonna talk about the fact that you clog your [ ] clogged the toilet okay put yourself in that conversation is that what you so you would come back to a group and you would go oh my God I can’t believe Stevie hooped in the toilet can you it’s a much more interesting to say Stevie shot in the bushes yeah okay yeah okay well yeah you would want it to and then you also would feel like kind of a bad person coming back and be like you won’t believe it Stevie pooped in the toilet and it was and it it ain’t clogged it’s like okay [ ] versus like if you saw me pooping in the bush you better [ ] go back and tell your friends that I was pooping in a bush like why else did I do it yeah there was this girl in first grade her name I will not say okay but I know the first and last name I still remember it because we went to the bathroom and she managed to poop and it got smeared everywhere I’m talking toilet seat and bathroom like stall walls it was the most strange thing I have ever experienced because how did the poop get there why like she how wait this was a situation where you walked in after after her it was like in between classes because there was a lot of us in in the bathroom stall and everybody remembered this girl first name and last name for years into Summerfield as the girl that shot all over the bathroom stall well so if you had walked in and the poop had been in the toilet you wouldn’t remember her first and last night would never yeah no and that’s yeah but it was smeared and that’s the lesson and that is a lesson do not smear your poop on things people will remember your full name just poop in the toilet there’s nothing to talk about you know um well well that that can transition us into our awkward story of the week yes okay so this story didn’t happen to me but I thought it was a ripe for a conversation especially in our would you rather um episode so Cassie uh was hanging out with uh some friends and uh two there were two lesbian couples in the in the group hanging out and somehow the topic of farting came up like farting in front of your partner and I actually meant to bring this up on the episode where I was talking about like inheriting things from your parents because I think it’s one of those things where like you’re either a farting family or you’re not like you establish farting rules it also is adjacent to um like nakedness in a family you know like you’re either in a family where your mom’s just always you’re just always seeing your mom naked uh or like you never see anyone naked at all but anyway in this conversation one of the couples has been together for like six years one for three and then Cassie and I for 11. yeah anyway and so the one couple that had been together for three years they were like oh we don’t we do not fart in front of each other we do not fart in front of each other we made we made that rule and Cassie was like okay and I immediately was like when she was telling me all this I was like okay there they have been in relationships in the past where they have felt like they’ve gotten too comfortable with each other and that’s like ruined the romance or something and so like they clearly like set rules for themselves and I will say one of the women in that couple is a little bit older like I think she’s in her bib okay it could be generated and so I think it’s that I think it’s like okay that person is has been in a multitude of relationships and like they’re starting again with someone and like they’re laying some ground rules but the interesting thing was the couple that had been together that were close with for six plus years maybe even eight years who are not I mean one of the people in the couple is like one of the most vulgar friends that I have like really like nothing’s off the table like in fact we were hanging out um the other day that’s why she has some rules well she’s like we were hanging out the other day and one of our close friends is this gay dude and she’s like I bet you have a beautiful butthole and he was like I do have a beautiful butthole and they made a bet and then he lost the bet and he showed her his butthole like oh my God I was I looked away yeah yeah they don’t fart in front of each other and I was like that is so odd and it’s not like Cassie and I like are like you know but like I don’t know like the way a human body were Works you’re living with someone you’re sleeping in the same bed with someone you’re with someone who you’re not close to like this is the person you’re closest to in the whole world I don’t know I just don’t know how to like how my body would function in a relationship where that can’t happen I’ll tell you how well and I want to know about you if you’re comfortable too because you’re in a heterosexual relationship which I think is different in many ways I’ve done alpha alpha heterosexual couples I know fart in front of each other okay of Our Generation yeah I don’t know about the older one yeah I grew up in a household where you would not fart in front of him and if you did like if it was like an act that did it ever happen where like someone accidentally accidentally and then what was the like mood excuse me okay it was just like it was okay we wouldn’t dwell on it for too long but it was like no if you need to do that go into another yeah yeah like just don’t infect the the room with your smell it was a like yeah the the commons over over the individual yeah but now I’m in a relationship where for the beginning I definitely the start of a relationship like yeah yeah yeah and now we’re comfortable yeah we’re comfortable doing it but when we go back home like if I’m back in North Carolina with him I’m like I know that I have to like remember I’m like oh yep hold it together Nikki and you’re not you’re not in the same space I think I’m in a very similar spot like I didn’t have a family you know there’s families where like farting is like a joke like yeah you know and I did not have a family like that but at the same time like you know mostly my dad if my dad’s gonna like you know accidentally let one go it’s like the whole like oh stepped on a frog thing where it’s like it’s not an embarrass like no one’s like oh I’m overly embarrassed for you like that atmosphere seems like very horrible for people did you grow up in a family where yeah they were free there was free party okay yes um the the opposite like Cassie said to me that she thought that she had never ever heard her mom fart like her mom just did not ever fart growing up and she remembers talking to her dad uh growing up and him and I was like I think your memory is you know skewed but like him saying like no your mom doesn’t fart and like it’s just so it’s so weird to me and those relationships are so weird to me I mean yes but still like truthfully I just don’t understand I I don’t I wouldn’t be able to do that I wouldn’t be able to live my life comfortably I’d have to have some kind of organ removed I think you know my mom wasn’t like that like she would fart in front of me on accident and then she’d be like don’t tell your dad okay so there was something there was something that’s really like heterosexual relationship like thing I don’t think that’s a heterosexual thing well I think it’s having a partner maybe like of the time like like this idea that women don’t fart women don’t poop like that that’s like an older school yeah like right idea so what about what do you think is happening in like a older lesbian couple like where both people are in their 60s do you think they’re just like they’re like women don’t poop just like no idea I think they’re like ripping it that was shot to me to and then yeah and then I felt like wow my God are we weird like is that a weird thing but now I feel good now now that I’m in a room full of farters um that doesn’t feel as awkward anymore for all you know I’ve been ripping them all the time that’s true that’s true I have no idea ripping them and dipping them right in the go okay do you think do you think that the the yeah for sure since they do you think the people that are farting in a relationship are farting in like a meeting room or amongst their colleagues that they’re close to no I feel like there’s a lot of farting farting at mythical no uh no I mean I can I remember like comedic effect no but I can remember specific times where Rhett like have farted accidentally uh either in front of me or like on stage in the middle of something oh my God where it’s it has been very funny but not like purposefully like we’re gonna fight right now we’re gonna fight um but I do know for a fact they fart in front of each other loudly without saying anything to each other and that’s how I have a couple times where like oh you know mostly I think it I mean not throw them under the bus but probably link forgot that I was I was also there so this brings me to the question of would you rather be ignored or criticized yeah yeah and that’s in on that note oh
