**Thomas** (00:00:00:01 - 00:00:14:04):
We could talk about tropical travel and comedy all day. That's why we're here on the sunburnt podcast. My co-host to my right, you know him from Netflix and his amazing stand of special. Move closer. It's Chip Chantry, everybody.
**Chip** (00:00:14:06 - 00:00:22:19):
And over here to my left is Emmy award winning writer producer. A man who is no longer legally allowed to buy tapioca pudding in the state of California, Mr. Thomas O'Brien.
**Thomas** (00:00:22:20 - 00:00:28:02):
you can put food in places. That makes it a legal chip. Did you know that?
**Chip** (00:00:28:02 - 00:00:29:23):
I learned it from the deposition.
**Thomas** (00:00:30:00 - 00:00:35:05):
I hate it. Like I feel like they're out there just making up rules to get me in trouble.
**Chip** (00:00:35:05 - 00:00:38:22):
They're just trying to trip you up, buddy. But we're not tripping up on this episode.
**Thomas** (00:00:39:04 - 00:00:55:21):
We not be tripping. We have so much fun stuff to talk about today, Chip. We're talking summer goals today. We're talking and movies that will ruin your vacation. Yes, and we are gonna let the sweet beats hit because we're talking about sunburnt tunes. Chip.
**Chip** (00:00:55:22 - 00:00:58:09):
Yeah, we got a playlist ready for you guys.
**Thomas** (00:00:58:09 - 00:01:00:05):
And I got a question for you. Chip. Are you one?
**Chip** (00:01:00:06 - 00:01:18:10):
I'm one, buddy. Let's put it on. I was one this weekend. I was outside in the sun. In the sun. Slather in this stuff on. And it felt. And it smelled amazing, I'll say that. Let's just say, this is no tapioca pudding. I can put this on legally, anywhere I want to go.
**Thomas** (00:01:19:10 - 00:01:29:10):
Yeah. Yeah. And I will say this, like, just because we do this. Oh, I don't know, every day. Doesn't make it any less special when you actually put it on for a purpose.
**Chip** (00:01:29:11 - 00:01:30:15):
It's the ritual.
**Thomas** (00:01:30:16 - 00:01:32:13):
God damn. Do I love that smell, chip.
**Chip** (00:01:32:16 - 00:01:37:19):
Love it, love it, love it. I love it as much as these guys are going to love this episode.
**Thomas** (00:01:37:21 - 00:01:41:01):
All right, stay tuned. Front desk.
**Chip** (00:01:41:02 - 00:01:48:09):
Hi, this is Mr. Chantry in room 308. Could you please quickly send up about two dozen towels, some hot water, and about a gallon and a half of milk?
**Thomas** (00:01:48:13 - 00:01:51:21):
This is another strange request. What's going on in the room, Mr. Gentry?
**Chip** (00:01:51:23 - 00:01:55:10):
Oh, not much, by the way. Would you care for any free kittens?
**Thomas** (00:01:55:12 - 00:01:56:15):
Free kittens?
**Chip** (00:01:56:17 - 00:01:57:20):
We got about a dozen of them here.
**Thomas** (00:01:58:01 - 00:02:04:07):
Oh, then. Yeah. Chip. Episode 14. We are burning up the tropical charts here.
**Chip** (00:02:04:07 - 00:02:05:08):
The caterer. Say, baby.
**Thomas** (00:02:05:08 - 00:02:10:05):
Have you ever done anything in your life that, I don't know, caught fire like this before?
**Chip** (00:02:11:10 - 00:02:14:08):
My first home when I was a child. And let's not talk about it.
**Thomas** (00:02:14:08 - 00:02:15:12):
But that's how you got ghost.
**Chip** (00:02:15:12 - 00:02:22:04):
Mommy at that. That is right. And it's the. It's the screenplay that's gonna make us millions.
**Thomas** (00:02:22:08 - 00:02:38:15):
Oh, my God, if we learn how to, you know, get to the next scene like there's some buttons you have to press on the computer, and then it makes it bold. You can say if it's inside or outside. If we get to that point in the software ghost, mommy's gonna be a hat dude, I promise you.
**Chip** (00:02:38:17 - 00:02:44:05):
It's going to be hilarious. It's going to be the next Leonard Part six.
**Thomas** (00:02:44:07 - 00:02:52:18):
I can't wait for that chip. Episode 14 that we are 189 days away from chat. Thanksgiving and Paradise.
**Chip** (00:02:52:20 - 00:03:08:10):
That countdown. I'm just getting sad. I had a dream about it last night. You had one last week. I think I'm just excited to get out. We're going to Hawaii. We're going to Waikiki. I'm doing the Blue Note Jazz Club in Waikiki the night before Thanksgiving. You guys are coming with us. Come to Hawaii? I've never been. I'm so excited.
**Thomas** (00:03:08:10 - 00:03:16:02):
Theoretically, you have a day or two off that week already? For. For a lot of people. Anyways. Just come out. Why are you with us?
**Chip** (00:03:16:02 - 00:03:16:21):
Yeah. Why not?
**Thomas** (00:03:16:23 - 00:03:25:04):
There's really not a great reason not to. But let's keep it rocking and rolling. Chip. Yeah. What you get into this week, man, it was.
**Chip** (00:03:25:04 - 00:03:33:22):
A fun week, man. I had, the weather is breaking. Although it got a little cooler today in Philly, which is nice and brisk. I like that, but this dude fun in the sun.
**Thomas** (00:03:34:02 - 00:03:35:16):
Ooh, I found this.
**Chip** (00:03:35:16 - 00:03:41:12):
First of all, I think I told you about last week. Last this past Thursday, I saw Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass.
**Thomas** (00:03:41:22 - 00:03:43:05):
That must have been a hurt dead.
**Chip** (00:03:43:06 - 00:03:47:14):
At the Miller Theater. Me and my buddy Christian, we went, oh, man, what a bunch of burnt ones there.
**Thomas** (00:03:47:17 - 00:03:48:16):
Oh, I can imagine.
**Chip** (00:03:48:16 - 00:04:15:13):
A bunch of dudes in their 60s and 70s rockin, rocking some Hawaiian shirts, some printed shirts. There was some animals on there. There was a man. It was. They were just loving life. Herb Alpert, 90 years old, still rocking that trumpet. It it was great though. So it's his theater show. He's 90. He still doing a nice job, but then he he would, you know, do some banter in between the songs, but he kept it loose.
And again, he for a 90 year old man, he's pretty sharp. I will say that. That's what he's also a 90 year old man.
**Thomas** (00:04:21:16 - 00:04:22:16):
Yeah.
**Chip** (00:04:22:17 - 00:04:38:09):
So he would like tell us he, they play a song and he's like clapping their luck. I mean, they were loving him and then he'd be like, so, you know, that was from whatever. And you tell a story. But then he was like, he did the crazy yeast thing I think I've ever seen an actor do in a theater.
I'm going to call it. I'm going to guess 2000 people, 2000 basically boomers in a room. He just opened the floor and was just like, so anybody got any questions? A little Q&A, it's just a room full of 70 year old dudes that just starts screaming stuff that they just want to. I love you from there. Or this year.
Tell us about that. Just screams like what you say, what you say. And he's like kind of doing some loose crowd work, right? Between his hit songs from the 60s and 70s. Well, so.
**Thomas** (00:05:11:18 - 00:05:14:22):
So herb herb was up there and he kept saying, clip that, clip.
**Chip** (00:05:14:22 - 00:05:31:08):
It, clip it. That's a new. Yeah, that is another crowd work clip that I'm going to do here. Yeah. I don't know if Herb Alpert has ever heard of the Instagram, but if he did, man, there was some. But that people were great. I mean somehow he it was it was chaos, but it was organized chaos. And it was a great show.
It was it was a lot of fun. We, we had a good time.
**Thomas** (00:05:33:11 - 00:05:37:14):
Unbelievable. Like, is there a question that you regret not asking Chip.
**Chip** (00:05:37:16 - 00:05:58:19):
At one point? I will say this at people. And of course, like people were sometimes phrasing questions, but people were just yelling things, like the general Hospital because he had this, like, hit song in the late 70s that they played on General Hospital lot, or people were just yelling, you know, like the names of songs or just, you know, this show, you know, whatever.
Ed Sullivan, the Smothers Brothers, you know, and I just wanted to like, non-sequitur just to see what he or anybody else would do. I just wanted to yell RoboCop! As far as I know, he was not affiliated with the film RoboCop at all, but, I just wanted to see if he would have any.
**Thomas** (00:06:16:09 - 00:06:22:20):
Yeah, see what it sparks. Maybe he was. You never know with these instrumental guys, did their stuff get ended up anywhere?
**Chip** (00:06:23:01 - 00:06:28:07):
You you do not. So yeah, I was it was a good show. And then this weekend, man. Italian market festival.
**Thomas** (00:06:28:13 - 00:06:30:23):
Oh I saw some pics on an Instagram trip.
**Chip** (00:06:31:04 - 00:06:40:15):
Yeah. You saw daddy with some pineapples, drinking out some pineapples. This Sunday, Kim and I were at. We're drinking some macho margaritas, some machismo, macho Margaret.
**Thomas** (00:06:40:15 - 00:06:41:05):
What's that?
**Chip** (00:06:41:10 - 00:06:59:04):
Two to get a little spice in. A lot of spice. A little kick in it, some. Some jalapeno in there. So it's like you are just you're getting assaulted and in the best way possible. So yeah, we're the margs, from Blue Corn, which is great Mexican restaurant in Philadelphia, just right along the market, just drinking out of those pineapples on a Sunday morning.
There's there is something to be said. I don't want it. Okay. We are a vacation podcast to a certain extent. Yeah. I don't want to show my hand as a general. I'm not a big drinker by any stretch. Yeah. I like I enjoy some cocktails. I enjoy some drinks every once in a while. But there is something about day drinking, morning drinking, even that is just.
It feels so good.
**Thomas** (00:07:23:04 - 00:07:24:23):
It's. It's the complete release.
**Chip** (00:07:24:23 - 00:07:44:08):
Dead eggs. Exactly. It's like, hey, this is we're going to. And I'm like, I'm not. See? And I think when people think of day drinking, they think of sad or angry drinking like, tailgating before the game or like sneak in drinks before work. Like, I'm not talking about, like, crushing beers and like, just getting passed out before the sun goes down.
I'm talking about just creating a nice little buzz for the for a day that I don't need to accomplish much. Right? Yeah. So you get those days, and I just had a couple of drinks in the morning. We're walking around this gigantic street festival, and you're just feeling good when the sun's out. We went home, we took a little nap, got back up, and then, like, we, we got stuff done the rest of the day.
It was. It was great. I had the the pineapple marks. My wife had some Peroni, ice cold Peroni. Big thing. The beer. Yeah. And and then I was drinking Fishtown iced teas. Thomas.
**Thomas** (00:08:20:01 - 00:08:21:10):
I don't know what that is.
**Chip** (00:08:21:12 - 00:08:23:14):
Yeah. The world's going to find out what a Fishtown iced.
**Thomas** (00:08:23:14 - 00:08:25:03):
Tea is for. It is.
**Chip** (00:08:25:05 - 00:08:48:16):
For. It's, Fishtown iced teas. You don't say they're like Long Island iced teas, because the people there will scream at you and they tell you you're wrong. But if I had to make a comparison, think Long Island iced tea. But it's a Fishtown iced tea. It comes in. I don't know if this is a West Coast thing at all, but in the East Coast, you know, like those little personal milk carton kind of situations that you would get as a child at the cafeteria, right?
**Thomas** (00:08:48:16 - 00:08:49:05):
Yeah.
**Chip** (00:08:49:07 - 00:09:08:20):
So you can also get other beverages, orange drink chocolate milk. Iced tea. Right. You know, so it's this I want to say it's about a maybe a pint or two I don't know of, you know, it's it's a nice sized little carton, personal carton of iced tea. But they open it up, they put ice in it, and then it's a little bit of iced tea.
Okay. And then it's vodka, tequila, triple sick and rum.
**Thomas** (00:09:15:04 - 00:09:15:14):
Oh my.
**Chip** (00:09:15:14 - 00:09:27:20):
God. Mixing it all up. Mix it up with a little iced tea. And man, what a beverage to walk around with thousands of your best friends on ninth Street in South Philadelphia at 1030 on a Sunday morning.
**Thomas** (00:09:28:01 - 00:09:48:22):
That sounds like an Italian market festival. Must. Yeah, I think, like, I just hear that combination of liquids together, and I think whoever's drinking that is going to turn up their volume ten decibels on accident, like it is just a shouters beverage. It's a shouters delight.
**Chip** (00:09:49:00 - 00:10:00:17):
It it is I that's trademark that shouters delight would be a great great name for that beverage at 110. And by the way we're already in the Italian market in South Philly. Everybody is a shouters delight.
**Thomas** (00:10:00:23 - 00:10:13:08):
Oh, and a chip. I completely independent of you. Just just, you know, living on the internet as we all do. I saw I saw some, video of the greased pole climbing.
**Chip** (00:10:13:10 - 00:10:14:03):
Oh, yeah.
**Thomas** (00:10:14:05 - 00:10:22:13):
Yeah, I mean, that's that's a thing that happens in the first world. I was like, yeah, they greased the pole and they climb right up it.
**Chip** (00:10:22:15 - 00:10:45:14):
Yeah. So that was lit. We used to live in the tight. We're still in South Philly, but we used to live a block away from this, from the time marketing, from the festival. It was a less than a block from our home. It's there 305 days a year. There's just they've erected this thing for this one purpose, and it just stays up all year in this parking lot that it's turned into sort of like a little piazza, well, hangout area.
And it's just a gigantic fat metal pole that's a couple of storeys high, like think like big fat flagpole, basically. But it's probably about a foot in diameter and it's metal. And what they do once a year, it's a, it's a big thing. They grease it up. So they literally had a guy. We watched it like on a cherry picker on like one of those things.
And they take grease like animal fat. I don't know what it is and they grease it all up. So it's all slippery and.
**Thomas** (00:11:15:14 - 00:11:16:19):
It's all glistening.
**Chip** (00:11:16:20 - 00:11:33:13):
It's all glistening. And then they have these teams of people who try to like they stand on each other's shoulders and they push each other up. And then some guy will try to shimmy all the way to the top to grab one of the prizes at the top of this giant greased pole.
**Thomas** (00:11:33:18 - 00:11:35:00):
Oh there's prizes.
**Chip** (00:11:35:00 - 00:11:36:18):
Yeah. Those prizes. Do you know those prizes are.
**Thomas** (00:11:36:22 - 00:11:37:02):
No.
**Chip** (00:11:37:05 - 00:11:40:00):
Meats, meats and cheeses?
**Thomas** (00:11:40:00 - 00:11:42:00):
Oh, delicious deli items.
**Chip** (00:11:42:03 - 00:12:00:23):
Delicious deli items that have been hanging out in the summertime all day. And they can reach up. I think there are some envelopes to maybe some cash prizes. Some like that, but they try to get all the way up and they try to reach one of the, the prizes. And thousands of people gather around this pole and watch people try to climb up.
I saw, and this is just Philadelphia, by the way. I saw last year. I saw a child. They had a child trying it at the top. The child failed, and 2000 people booed this child. I mean, it was one of my favorite moments, on earth. So. Yeah. So that's that's Italian market. That's one. Oh, and then so it's Saturday and Sunday.
Yeah. They're both days with some friends walking around and on Sunday. So it's it's loosely linked to the Catholic churches in the neighborhood. There are two and so every Sunday, the Sunday of the Italian Market festival, they have the procession of the saints. The saints literally go marching in and they start at the one church. They come right up through ninth Street, right, right through the festival.
And then they end up at the other church with it's these people and they somebody sings Ave Maria. There's a little stage and they do a blessing or whatever. I'm not Catholic, so I'm like, I'm just sort of taking this in, you know, trying to figure it all out. Yeah. But they have these basically sort of little floats there, these carts where they push these statues of these saints through the street and everybody watches it.
There's a brass band plays. And what you can do is if your favorite saint comes past, you give one of the people a dollar and they'll give you a baseball card, basically of your favorite saint, like the mass card of the Saint, basically. And Thomas right here, my Hawaiian. I got my favorite saint right here.
**Thomas** (00:13:33:00 - 00:13:34:08):
Jeff, what do we got here?
**Chip** (00:13:34:09 - 00:13:37:21):
All right, this is my eye. Okay. Again, I'm not Catholic. I don't I don't know much about saints.
**Thomas** (00:13:37:22 - 00:13:42:08):
I do know 2025. This is not a rookie card.
**Chip** (00:13:42:10 - 00:14:00:16):
This is not a rookie card. He has been around for a while. This is Saint Rocco. Ooh. I mean, come on, it's Saint Rocco. It's like it was just a funny name to me. And I was like, he's my guy. Sometimes he's wearing a hat. He does have a Jesus vibe, the look to him, but he,
**Thomas** (00:14:00:18 - 00:14:03:12):
You want that in your saints? A nice Jesus vibe.
**Chip** (00:14:03:14 - 00:14:08:23):
Yeah. He's also, the patron saint of dogs, which I think is cool. Love dogs.
**Thomas** (00:14:09:01 - 00:14:10:07):
Right. You love dogs?
**Chip** (00:14:10:09 - 00:14:29:05):
Of course. But here I did a little more research on Saint Rocco. And so I get a Saint Rocco card. Every year I give a dollar and I get a Saint Rocco card every year. It's like my favorite thing. Okay. He is the patron saint of you. Ready for this, Thomas? Yeah. Plagues, contagious diseases and dogs.
**Thomas** (00:14:29:07 - 00:14:30:16):
Wow.
**Chip** (00:14:30:17 - 00:14:33:14):
I mean, that's that's a lot of fun right there, right?
**Thomas** (00:14:33:20 - 00:14:49:02):
I mean, I, I don't I don't know what being the patron saint of anything actually means, right? But if he has, like, a positive influence on the things he's a patron saint of, like, gets rid of these plagues, gets rid of these diseases.
**Chip** (00:14:49:05 - 00:14:50:10):
Yeah.
**Thomas** (00:14:50:11 - 00:14:56:14):
Adds a healthy sheen to the coat of. I'm not. What, what a top notch saint.
**Chip** (00:14:56:16 - 00:15:22:13):
What, what an og burnt one right there. Yeah, yeah. So, Saint Rocco, by the way, this is one of my favorite things to do in photos and in the statues. He he, you know, it's Saint Rocco because he'll be pulling up his robe or his toga or whatever the garb is that he's wearing. Yeah. And and literally not even just showing, but a lot of times pointing to an open sore on his knee.
On his leg. Oh, he's just got an open saw and he's like, here it is like just for the camera. Like, here's my open sore. And, shows that he's, I guess, working to make that sore feel better. But so he is the he is the patron. And then you do a little more research. He's the patron saint.
And I think it's like against obviously to ward off against these things, specifically cholera epidemics.
**Thomas** (00:15:45:14 - 00:15:45:17):
Yeah.
**Chip** (00:15:45:19 - 00:15:47:00):
The problems.
**Thomas** (00:15:47:01 - 00:15:47:05):
Yeah.
**Chip** (00:15:47:05 - 00:15:54:00):
Is it just knee problems in general plague, plague and skin disorders okay.
**Thomas** (00:15:54:04 - 00:15:55:20):
And now we're talking okay.
**Chip** (00:15:55:20 - 00:16:17:02):
And he's the patron saint of you. Ready. If any of you burnt ones out there fall into these category. Saint Rocco's guy bachelors. Okay. Used cattle, dogs, falsely accused people. Okay. Invalids. I don't even know you can use that word anymore. But invalids.
**Thomas** (00:16:17:08 - 00:16:18:19):
Okay. Yeah.
**Chip** (00:16:18:21 - 00:16:51:05):
Istanbul. The city of Istanbul. This dude is the patron saying if he looks over surgeons. Okay. Tile makers, grave diggers, second hand dealers. And, pilgrims. And, the last one I'm looking here. It is, and, pilgrims, I think there's there's there's one more that is. But it's just like, that's.
**Thomas** (00:16:51:06 - 00:16:52:10):
In poor handwriting.
**Chip** (00:16:52:15 - 00:17:17:01):
And poor handwriting. I think it is. I wrote it that way. It is it it is. I can and I think it is people with bad handwriting because I can't read that last thing I said, what I wrote there, but, like, it's just it's the most ridiculous bachelors disease, cattle, dogs, falsely accused people, invalids, Istanbul surgeons, tile makers, grave diggers.
**Thomas** (00:17:17:04 - 00:17:19:19):
This guy's got a wide tent.
**Chip** (00:17:19:21 - 00:17:31:20):
I mean, he's bringing everybody. That's kind of like saying that. Be like, oh, yeah, I'm the patron saint of plumbers, ventriloquists, scuba divers, magic markers, pie eating contest runners up. You know, like, you know what I mean?
**Thomas** (00:17:31:20 - 00:17:33:15):
These guys could do this.
**Chip** (00:17:33:17 - 00:17:40:20):
Yeah. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. Husbands who leave the seat up. Breakdancers and actress Susan Sarandon.
**Thomas** (00:17:41:10 - 00:17:42:11):
Ooh.
**Chip** (00:17:42:11 - 00:17:44:02):
Sues Susie.
**Thomas** (00:17:44:12 - 00:17:59:06):
Yeah. You know, she'd have a good patron. Dude, what, What a wild guy. I just, I just love the idea of, like, pointing to the thing that's wrong, like, what's up? It's just like, I love it. He's got the the.
**Chip** (00:17:59:06 - 00:18:01:22):
Oh, it's a power move. It is a power move.
**Thomas** (00:18:02:00 - 00:18:10:19):
The open wound on his knee. He's pointing to that with his other hand. A map of instant ball. Yeah. It's just like these things are all festering, baby.
**Chip** (00:18:10:21 - 00:18:13:15):
Boom. And. And here's my dog Bowser. Yeah.
**Thomas** (00:18:14:05 - 00:18:32:18):
That's. So that's such a. I think I think we need to normalize that for, for a lot of reasons, pointing to things that you wouldn't normally point to in a photo like, I, I'm running out of things to do in photos. You know, I just turned 40. I, I've taken all the photos I'm going to take in my life.
Right. I think I need to start incorporating some direction, you know, pointing at different things.
**Chip** (00:18:39:19 - 00:18:43:03):
Yeah. Like, hey, here's a mole that looks a little suspicious.
**Thomas** (00:18:43:05 - 00:18:50:07):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. It's like, this is where I didn't shave correctly and cut myself.
**Chip** (00:18:50:09 - 00:18:56:04):
Here's my second chin. Like, just let let the world see it. That's what I'm saying. It's just like.
**Thomas** (00:18:56:05 - 00:19:00:03):
This is my third and fourth nipple.
**Chip** (00:19:00:05 - 00:19:05:10):
And there's a fifth on the way around back. So, yeah.
**Thomas** (00:19:05:12 - 00:19:08:18):
I've got so many nips. I'm starting to come around back. Chip.
**Chip** (00:19:08:20 - 00:19:20:15):
They are. They are slipping. I will say that it's it's hard not to have a nip slip at this point. I mean, it's just, you know, see where it at? Unless you were in a Moomoo, the world is going to see one of those 19 nips.
**Thomas** (00:19:20:17 - 00:19:26:00):
Who says these GMOs are doing any harm? You know? Exactly.
**Chip** (00:19:26:02 - 00:19:38:03):
Say the world's got to have those nips. Yeah. So, so that is Saint Rocco, I think a burnt one for the Catholic Church. Again, I don't know a lot about saints, but. Yeah, Rocco's my guy.
**Thomas** (00:19:38:05 - 00:19:42:23):
I, I love I do just the grab bag of saints. Or maybe they all have, like, a laundry list.
**Chip** (00:19:43:03 - 00:20:12:22):
I think a lot of them do. And, like, I don't know, exactly. Like how it's decided, but they just throw, like, grave diggers. Like, now that's just one, you know, grave diggers, pilgrims, invalids and falsely accused people. You know, it's just. Yeah, it is a mishmash. It's a by the way, if this Thanksgiving, if we went to Hawaii, we had a group of people come with us and we had some grave diggers, tile makers, falsely accused people and pilgrims.
I'm in. I'm 100% in.
**Thomas** (00:20:14:17 - 00:20:23:20):
Oh, I think the, saint, the Saint Rocco set as we've been calling them. Yeah. The grave diggers, they gravely ill.
**Chip** (00:20:23:22 - 00:20:25:20):
Yeah. Dogs.
**Thomas** (00:20:25:22 - 00:20:33:18):
The dogs, I think. I think they're going to be a really powerful group within the larger sunburnt, hierarchy.
**Chip** (00:20:33:20 - 00:20:35:21):
100%, 100% me.
**Thomas** (00:20:36:02 - 00:20:42:17):
So you're welcome. Come on with us. Tickets at Blue Note hawaii.com. Yeah. November 26th.
**Chip** (00:20:42:22 - 00:20:47:15):
Backslash. Saint Rocco. How was your week?
**Thomas** (00:20:47:17 - 00:20:51:23):
Oh, dude. Unbelievable week. Last time we talked, I was just about to go see friendship champ.
**Chip** (00:20:52:01 - 00:20:53:00):
Yes. Tell me.
**Thomas** (00:20:53:11 - 00:20:58:12):
Dude, it was a really fun experience for me.
**Chip** (00:20:58:16 - 00:21:02:14):
First time back at the theater for years. Just. Just for you.
**Thomas** (00:21:02:16 - 00:21:11:04):
First time back at the theater now, my wife, I mean, we were crying, literally crying, laughing in the first five minutes of this thing.
**Chip** (00:21:11:09 - 00:21:12:04):
Amazing.
**Thomas** (00:21:12:20 - 00:21:24:21):
It's not going to be for everybody. It's outside. There. If you think or if you've seen, I think you should leave. Like, you kind of know what you're getting into. I think they did a really good job of pacing out that style of humor over a feature length.
**Chip** (00:21:25:02 - 00:21:25:09):
Yeah.
**Thomas** (00:21:25:18 - 00:21:26:08):
With a.
**Chip** (00:21:26:08 - 00:21:32:11):
Cuz that's a tough that's a tough thing to do. I mean, you know, like go jumping from, like, let's just say like an SNL sketch.
**Thomas** (00:21:32:13 - 00:21:32:19):
Yeah.
**Chip** (00:21:32:19 - 00:21:41:16):
To Wayne's World, the movie is not an easy lift as as we've seen many times. It's like, yeah, this is funny for three minutes. Yeah. How do we do it for 90?
**Thomas** (00:21:41:18 - 00:21:57:11):
And especially with like, such a specific comedic voice and Tim Robinson, like, he really, I'm sure that he can do a lot of things and he does a lot of things within it. But the sketch show he does really gets you moving from idea to idea with a similar take.
**Chip** (00:21:57:11 - 00:22:02:04):
And, and those shows, those shows aren't even 30 minutes. They're like 17 minutes.
**Thomas** (00:22:02:23 - 00:22:08:18):
And they're just, they're, they're, they're so delightful. They go down so smooth. So you wonder what the movie's going to be.
**Chip** (00:22:08:18 - 00:22:15:02):
I'm putting you on the spot right now, putting you on the spot. Favorite Tim Robinson sketch all time. I have one.
**Thomas** (00:22:15:11 - 00:22:16:22):
Cough and flop.
**Chip** (00:22:17:00 - 00:22:24:10):
Yeah, cough a lot. Yeah. That is man, that that once you hit of cough and flop and the, the old man, the,
**Thomas** (00:22:24:12 - 00:22:26:02):
Like. Yeah.
**Chip** (00:22:26:03 - 00:22:47:03):
Those, those are both in my top five, like just. Yeah. I think my favorite one of his is from his Netflix. The characters. The first okay he did is Morley, the limousine guy when he's in the office. And they, they pull pranks on him. It's the funniest and saddest sketch, I think. And it's a perfect blend.
**Thomas** (00:22:47:05 - 00:22:54:13):
I'm not. I can't pull it. I'll have to go rewatch. I, from that one. I remember the, the The Pointer Brothers, though.
**Chip** (00:22:54:13 - 00:22:59:03):
It's the one right before the Pointer Brothers. Yeah, the Pointer Brothers again. That's probably a top five for me. Yeah.
**Thomas** (00:22:59:05 - 00:23:28:05):
It's so stupid, I love it. Yeah. But, I will say in the theater it was me and my wife, and then every row for, like, probably for in front of us three behind us, there was just one guy who came by himself and sat directly in the center. We were single file, and it was me and my wife, and everybody else was ticket for one.
I'm going to go see this movie about male friendship by myself.
And, everybody was die, dude. It was like it was the right crowd. And we we talk about, like, it's one of those things where if this movie was a slightly more mainstream, and each one of those guys brought a girlfriend that didn't want to be there, or a wife or, you know, a friend, like, sure, every buddy there wanted to be there.
**Chip** (00:23:57:02 - 00:23:58:17):
And that's a beautiful thing.
**Thomas** (00:23:58:17 - 00:24:05:02):
It was a beautiful thing. No cell phones out? No. None of them had anybody to talk to, so they didn't talk at all?
**Chip** (00:24:05:02 - 00:24:17:01):
No, no. That's one of my biggest pet peeves of going to the movies. Why I don't go as much anymore is because they to talk in the theater. But if you are just a dude by yourself, who you got to talk to you.
**Thomas** (00:24:17:04 - 00:24:40:08):
Oh it's unbelievable. Like my favorite. They are. Our careers have largely gave us flexibility and schedule. Yeah. And, I do it for for the longest time. What's better than going to see a matinee? You see the first movie of the day? You drink a coffee, you're sharp. You're watching it, and you're in a largely empty theater that AC is blasting.
I, I really cherish that. So, replicating that feeling feels amazing. And you kind of, But, you know, you do lose out on, a big audience response. It is fun, like a horror movie or like I just remember seeing something about Mary back in the day at the theater.
**Chip** (00:24:58:07 - 00:24:58:18):
Yeah.
**Thomas** (00:24:58:19 - 00:25:10:11):
And just have the the whole theater was rolling. Dude, I can't you can't really replicate that in a theater these days. I haven't seen a comedy in the theater in a long time, and I definitely haven't seen it with a hot crowd.
**Chip** (00:25:10:16 - 00:25:20:17):
I still remember seeing with one of my buddies. I went to see There's Something About Mary, just like, loved it so much. And then we brought a bunch of our other friends. Yeah, kind of got to watch them watch.
**Thomas** (00:25:21:00 - 00:25:22:02):
Something about. Oh, that's great.
**Chip** (00:25:22:07 - 00:25:41:04):
And just the the prom scene. Baseball. And just when he just flips out and just starts wrestling him is the funny, is the funniest. And she's like tears and and again, just to watch somebody watch that is is my favorite thing.
**Thomas** (00:25:41:06 - 00:25:59:21):
I remember seeing yeah. The first time I saw it, I saw it with my uncle. He brought me and my little brother, which my parents would have never allowed, of course, at the time. And he. Just to see that man who laughed maybe three other times in his whole life, laughing till he cried. What a what a special.
What a special moment.
**Chip** (00:26:01:12 - 00:26:01:22):
Yeah.
**Thomas** (00:26:02:07 - 00:26:20:11):
Let's do a back there. But yeah, we had we had the most fun. It was, amazing just to go do with my wife. And she had a great time, great attitude. She really likes. I think you should leave anyways. Yeah. A very good sense of humor on that last. And, Yeah. Dude, it was an amazing time.
And then we we got back and and had a wonderful evening with, with the baby.
**Chip** (00:26:24:21 - 00:26:42:18):
Because it's the matinee. You still have the day ahead of you that that's. It's the same thing with day drink, day drinking, matinees. You do a little bit. You get it out of the way, and then you have the rest of your day. There's nothing like coming out of a cold, dark movie theater to that bright sunlight where you're just like, okay, I'm back in reality now.
It's a it's a warm hug from from the world.
**Thomas** (00:26:45:14 - 00:26:52:06):
It really is just flipping that switch of like, I actually am turning off all my problems.
**Chip** (00:26:52:08 - 00:26:59:00):
It, that's really what it is. It again? Yeah. It's not again. Do what you do. But it's not binge drinking. It's not just like.
**Thomas** (00:26:59:02 - 00:27:01:15):
No, I hear what you're saying. I mean, there is that version of it.
**Chip** (00:27:01:19 - 00:27:14:00):
There is that version of it which there's a time and place, but like, it's just a cocktail or two where you just like today's today is going to be smooth sailing again. I'm on vacation even in my mind for a day. Let's just have some fun.
**Thomas** (00:27:14:02 - 00:27:29:03):
Now that was a that's like, like Vegas day drinking and like your 20s is the version where you're getting messed up, ruining your whole time in your 30s. It's like, I know how to pace this bad boy out where I'm never going to be hammered.
**Chip** (00:27:29:05 - 00:27:29:20):
Yeah.
**Thomas** (00:27:30:09 - 00:27:46:19):
I'm probably going to take a nice nap in the afternoon, but right now, I mean, me and my buds are just laying out by the pool and literally have no problems we could even possibly solve. Right? We're living in a place where our problems do not.
**Chip** (00:27:46:21 - 00:28:02:18):
Yeah, I see I don't know. We we talked about this podcast, but this is a something where like I have I have a niece and nephew who are in their teens now. They're they're going to be college age soon. Wow. And I, we binge drank in college because that's what I thought you were supposed to do. I didn't drink in high school.
You go to college. And then it was just like, well, you got to throw it because those are the stories you hear. It's like, we had a kegger and it was wild. We just crushed two cases of Busch Light and we just went nuts, right?
**Thomas** (00:28:13:03 - 00:28:13:19):
Yeah.
**Chip** (00:28:13:21 - 00:28:28:20):
We need to make moderation cool again. Like I want to I think we should tell these kids, like, tell those fun stories. Like me and my wife each had a White Claw and watched a Netflix doc. It was off the hook.
**Thomas** (00:28:28:22 - 00:28:29:05):
Yeah.
**Chip** (00:28:29:06 - 00:28:30:05):
Make it fun.
**Thomas** (00:28:30:07 - 00:28:31:13):
Yeah, make it fun.
**Chip** (00:28:31:14 - 00:28:32:12):
Sound fun?
**Thomas** (00:28:32:14 - 00:28:43:08):
I think the kids today, from what I've been reading, I haven't talked to a child, you know, since I was one, basically. But I think they'd be like, you guys are still drinking.
**Chip** (00:28:43:10 - 00:28:43:20):
Yeah.
**Thomas** (00:28:43:23 - 00:28:46:01):
Don't you know that's poison?
**Chip** (00:28:46:02 - 00:28:51:02):
Yeah. Like we're just going to vape a little bit and just be on an even keel for the rest of our life.
**Thomas** (00:28:51:02 - 00:28:54:03):
Yeah, we're snorting Adderall, but we're not drinking.
**Chip** (00:28:54:05 - 00:28:56:23):
We're not drinking. Gross, guys. Gross.
**Thomas** (00:28:57:07 - 00:29:10:11):
Very gross, very gross. The rest of the weekend was baby stuff. Dude. It was, a wonderful baby stuff. A little ally. We take her to a gym where we pay a lot of money.
**Chip** (00:29:10:16 - 00:29:15:08):
She just does some squat. A personal trainer does some squats, throw those little elbows.
**Thomas** (00:29:15:08 - 00:29:18:22):
They literally have people there. They call them their coaches.
**Chip** (00:29:19:00 - 00:29:19:18):
Okay.
**Thomas** (00:29:20:04 - 00:29:34:10):
You call them coach, and they come around and, like, I don't know, she can't stand. What kind of workout is she going to do? Yeah, but I will say that, it's, you know, it's the fittest babies we run into during the week.
**Chip** (00:29:34:12 - 00:29:35:16):
Yeah, just these.
**Thomas** (00:29:35:16 - 00:29:44:20):
Kids, their parents have all put a focus on getting shredded as babies, and it's working out. And then. Yeah, you know, just,
**Chip** (00:29:44:22 - 00:29:47:05):
What is this kid? What is the coach doing?
**Thomas** (00:29:47:07 - 00:30:02:21):
The coach, talking like they're just really good at talking to babies. Like they know how to do it. Like, I'm. I'm a dad. I have one. Sure. I don't know what to say to a baby sometimes. Yeah. It's like we we we're happy, and I take care of it and we play and whatever, but, like, I don't know what to say.
They got the words Chip. They can really get in there and say like, things.
**Chip** (00:30:06:15 - 00:30:10:04):
To be like a baby treadmill, like, like a baby hamster wheel or something like.
**Thomas** (00:30:10:04 - 00:30:16:11):
That. It's like, so it's they really have to, like, work to make it make sense. So there's always a theme.
**Chip** (00:30:16:13 - 00:30:21:09):
Being because if there's something that a baby and an infant loves, it's a theme.
**Thomas** (00:30:21:09 - 00:30:39:00):
So there's like a muscle focus. That's something they always do. It's going to be a muscle focus. A lot of times it's grip strength. They have the baby holding on to something and like, you know, on a swing. Yeah. That was the that was, the movement. I forget what they call it. It's like a movement portion of it.
And they have this like a little, little swing wrecking ball style, like the Miley Cyrus video where they put the baby on it and somebody holds them. They have them hold on to the rope in the center, and they swing and back and forth, and then they kind of launch them into some foam blocks and knock them over.
And the kids either love it or they hate it, but either way, they're getting a big reaction. It's kind of like your comedy chip.
**Chip** (00:31:01:19 - 00:31:06:15):
It really is. Yeah. Most yeah, most people love it or hate it. There's there's very few in between.
**Thomas** (00:31:06:15 - 00:31:15:12):
You elicit strong reactions and you need that from, audiences and babies. If you're going to keep paying huge rates to bring them back to that gym.
**Chip** (00:31:15:12 - 00:31:32:16):
My favorite thing is when they teach babies to swim, I think, are they called water babies where they just like to throw them in the pool? Nirvana? Never mind style. Like, all right, you're going to learn now. Boom. And then they just like. Like babies have the instinct. They know how to swim it out. That's that's a that is that's my thing.
My wife did that when she, as an infant. Like, really she learned if I was a parent. I don't know if that's what I would do, but like I don't know if it's still do that if that's a thing, but I.
**Thomas** (00:31:42:04 - 00:31:46:04):
Think it's still a thing. But like it wasn't recommended by our pediatrician.
**Chip** (00:31:46:05 - 00:31:49:16):
Yeah. That's right. It's probably good to stay with. She was like, it's just wild to see it. Yeah.
**Thomas** (00:31:49:17 - 00:32:01:07):
Let them get a little older. But like, I get you know, that's the weird thing is like, I had a lot of comfort when I figured out that the baby doesn't want to die just as much as you don't want the baby to die.
**Chip** (00:32:01:11 - 00:32:01:16):
Yeah.
**Thomas** (00:32:01:16 - 00:32:21:03):
That's true. They've got a lot of instincts. It's like they're less likely to roll off that changing table. Even though they don't know why, they're just not going to do it, for a long time. They don't try and jump out of your arms like they understand they're being carried. They don't I don't know. Yeah. Now she just she wants to kick me and punch me.
And yeah, he's doing her best to jump off something high or launch yourself off. Mom or dad? A lot of those better instincts have gone by the wayside. But, regardless, we have fun. We have fun at the gym. At the gym. And we do think about it because, like, we one of the best times of my life is like, you know, we took her to Hawaii, you know, last fall.
And just, like, splashing around and, like, those big resort pools, we were in a lazy river. Dude, she we thought she might hate it. She loved it. That's. She's just got, like, a little inner tube, her little bathing suit. She is covered in. So much sunscreen, you can't even really tell. Like, what, what race she is.
She's just. It's just, like, kind of looking like powder a little bit. Yeah, yeah. But, Yeah. Dude, it's. I'm, We got to figure out what water safety ultimately looks like, because right now it is just like dad 100% of the time holding her and a little floaty raft. And, it's the best.
**Chip** (00:33:25:08 - 00:33:28:03):
That's great. I love it, I love it, I love it.
**Thomas** (00:33:28:05 - 00:33:32:13):
Yeah. So that was, the big weekend there, man.
**Chip** (00:33:32:15 - 00:33:32:21):
Yeah.
**Thomas** (00:33:35:05 - 00:33:49:00):
Dude, is it time? Are we going to talk about the beautiful creatures? We're going to make ourselves through very specific, measurable, achievable goals this summer.
**Chip** (00:33:49:02 - 00:34:01:20):
I think this we're using this pocket. This is the only reason we're doing this podcast, is just to motivate ourselves to get out of the basement, to get up into the sun and make ourselves functional human beings.
**Thomas** (00:34:01:22 - 00:34:04:17):
We're going to be big, beautiful creatures.
**Chip** (00:34:05:11 - 00:34:08:15):
We're actually going to that little, little bit smaller, beautiful creatures, hopefully.
**Thomas** (00:34:08:19 - 00:34:34:17):
Oh yeah, a little bit slimmer, a little bit slimmer. So let's let's get into it, dude. Like we've always talked about it like one of our favorite things is using the motivation of an upcoming trip to make improvements in our lives. So we are really putting it out there, and we're letting the world know. We're letting all of, you know, that we have set some goals for ourselves to accomplish by the end of the summer.
And, we're just going to talk about those right now to keep each other honest and to, hopefully get you guys thinking about what, you know, what goals you might want to implement in your life for the next coming months. Heading up to Chip Chantry, Thanksgiving in Paradise. November 26th in Honolulu, Hawaii.
**Chip** (00:34:54:01 - 00:35:13:00):
It's the perfect time to because it's the beginning of summer. We have a memorial day coming up this weekend, so it's the kickoff to summer. Like the Hold Steady said, we're going to build something. The summer. We're gonna have a constructive summer. And it's we're basically almost exactly six months out from the, the Thanksgiving in Paradise.
So it's like we have we have six months. If you have something to look forward to. Six months. That's a nice onramp of time to be like, I could be a better person in six months from now.
**Thomas** (00:35:21:01 - 00:35:41:06):
Yeah, you could really change a lot. That's like one eighth of a college degree. Yeah. It is, you know, I mean, right there, like, you can make some pretty significant physical changes. Some mental changes. Learn a skill, change a job. Like there's a lot of good stuff you can do if, you know, you sit down, you've got the motivation, you're consistent.
So, Chip, let's, Let's get into it, man. What what are you, what's your first goal?
**Chip** (00:35:47:20 - 00:36:06:19):
So is again, is just to lose about I want to lose about ten jobs, but then also put on a couple of muscle, you know, like, make it just, like, feeling good. And one of my big goals is, is just to feel more like a younger version of myself. I just need to get more flexible. So daddy's going to be stretching.
He's going to be stretching it out. That's like the big thing that I want to do, just because that makes everything else possible. It's like I want to be running. So I'm going to run a couple races this year. I will get back into that, which I haven't done in a couple of years. But in order to do that, I got to be Mr. Plastic.
Like I got to flex it out. Yeah, I got it because I'm I'm so tight right now.
**Thomas** (00:36:25:09 - 00:36:28:16):
Let's talk about that. Yeah.
**Chip** (00:36:29:05 - 00:36:46:21):
I'll show you on the doll where I'm tight because, I, it would be the entire doll because I am just. But the the hammies, the back, the quad. It's just everything is like I get into some, like, I've been a little bit better with, like, not getting plantar fasciitis, but, like, just, stretching out those calves, that Achilles just.
But then it's like, even, like, I, I am so tight right now, like, do you ever wake up? And it's like, oh, I think my wall is tight right now. Like literally because every muscle is connected and it's like my back is tight. So therefore my neck is tight. So therefore my head is tight, which means my jaw is too.
I'm like, I hate that I can't open my mouth all the way because that's how much my muscles are contracted. And it's like, I need the I need. It's like I need to stretch before I start yoga. Like, I'm not ready. I'm not ready for beginners yoga right now. I need I need about a month on ramp to start yoga is is what I got to do.
It's pre it's kind of like pre-algebra. But it's just it's free. Yoga is what I'm. That's the state. I'm in right.
**Thomas** (00:37:31:17 - 00:37:41:22):
Now. Pre-Algebra was a great, a great exercise as a young person realizing that you can be bad at the pre thing. Yeah. Just just in time to be bad at the real thing.
**Chip** (00:37:41:22 - 00:38:07:13):
I learned, that I was bad at the real thing right away because I was a pretty good student. But I was definitely more humanities, English, history, not the science and math as much, but I was in the, I was in the advanced class, growing up in the honors class. And so they put the in eighth grade, everybody took out for a ninth grade in eighth grade, they took that one class and gave us honors algebra.
So we started algebra early, and then we're just on the fast track. Yeah. Chip wasn't ready for that.
**Thomas** (00:38:14:13 - 00:38:15:15):
**Chip** (00:38:15:17 - 00:38:34:19):
Barely got through algebra. Like I ended up with, like, a C minus, average, which isn't terrible, but it's, like, way lower than what I was getting all my other classes. And luckily, God bless the algebra teacher told my parents I was like, look, he can go into honors geometry next year. He's going to be way behind, just like he is now.
He's just going to get his ass kicked. Or he could just he could retake algebra just with the regular dummies. And, he's not behind. He's going to take it. And then I took it again in ninth grade and just went into the regular algebra and like, first of all, aced it because I knew, you know, I already got a leg up like I did this before.
Yeah. And I had it. I had a newfound love of algebra, and it was a great algebra and then great in geometry, aced it and then took algebra two and Trig in 11th grade. And man did I fall apart again. I was like, I want no parts of this. This is just not up my alley at all.
**Thomas** (00:39:14:02 - 00:39:18:01):
That's so funny, dude. Retaking things is such a power move.
**Chip** (00:39:18:01 - 00:39:19:04):
Yeah, it really is. Yeah.
**Thomas** (00:39:19:05 - 00:39:39:10):
Nobody else knows. Nobody knows. Everybody thinks you're on even footing. You've done it before. I mean, it's a character flaw to want to return to that, right? But if you need a little pep in your step, if you need a little wind in your sails, take a class. A beginner's class on something you're an expert at.
**Chip** (00:39:39:12 - 00:39:51:09):
It is the. It's the greatest move in the world. Yeah. It's just you just. You feel like Zeus is a ninth grader. It's the. It's the only time is a freshman in high school. You feel like Zeus?
**Thomas** (00:39:51:17 - 00:39:53:17):
It's beautiful dude. Well, I've got,
**Chip** (00:39:53:19 - 00:39:55:17):
Yeah. What? What do you got? What's one of your one of your goals?
**Thomas** (00:39:55:21 - 00:40:02:04):
Well, I'll get to my goals in a second, but I just want to let you know I do have a yoga routine that I do.
**Chip** (00:40:02:06 - 00:40:02:12):
Okay.
**Thomas** (00:40:02:13 - 00:40:25:07):
Do. And it is, there's a lot of them out there. I just do the one over and over again. It's a big getting yoga, routine that focuses on the hamstrings. And I found out that was like. That was my whole body's problem was I had tight hamstrings, and there was nothing, nothing I could do.
**Chip** (00:40:25:07 - 00:40:28:20):
I would say my hammies are probably about two inches long right now.
**Thomas** (00:40:28:22 - 00:40:31:08):
I mean, that's a short hammy. Yeah.
**Chip** (00:40:31:10 - 00:40:36:06):
So, where did you find this? This is on, like, online on the, on the YouTubes or,
**Thomas** (00:40:36:21 - 00:40:37:10):
Or.
**Chip** (00:40:37:13 - 00:40:40:19):
Is it from a did you do you also have a baby, coach?
**Thomas** (00:40:42:05 - 00:40:59:16):
I do have a baby coach. They hope they push me on the swings, and then they tell me to bend over and touch them toes. Yeah, it's called the die. Die change is the big move. It really stretches out the hammies. Yeah, and makes you feel vulnerable. But no, I'll send you the video.
**Chip** (00:40:59:18 - 00:41:05:23):
Oh, I'm so excited about that. Oh, that's the one I forgot. Saint Rocco, patron saint of tight hammies.
**Thomas** (00:41:06:01 - 00:41:12:01):
Ooh. Okay. That's somebody that's a I don't know. They're not a deity. You pray to the saints, though, right?
**Chip** (00:41:12:04 - 00:41:26:22):
Yeah, sure. Why not? Right, I guess. All right. And it's like if you lose your car keys or whatever is. I think it's Saint Anthony. I don't know, it's like Saint Rocco's literally, like, with one hand, he's pointing to the open sore on his knee with the other one, he's just pointing. He's just like grabbing the back of his thigh.
**Thomas** (00:41:27:00 - 00:41:28:23):
I love it. God, these these, a pointed pointing at something that's not not a positive. That's.
**Chip** (00:41:38:07 - 00:41:55:15):
I love it. Like, here's a stain on my shirt, but. Oh, by the way, during the Italian market festival, there's all these food trucks, all these booths set up, like, with great food. And it's not just Italian, so it's like Italian, but there's, like, lots of Mexican restaurants on there, too. There's Asian restaurants. It's so good. And there is.
Have you ever had Tibetan food? Thomas from Tibet I from there.
**Thomas** (00:42:00:05 - 00:42:03:07):
No, I've had it. I've had Himalayan food similar.
**Chip** (00:42:03:07 - 00:42:04:02):
Yeah. Yes.
**Thomas** (00:42:04:07 - 00:42:06:05):
Like very close to Indian food. Right.
**Chip** (00:42:06:14 - 00:42:17:10):
Yeah. Sort of. Yeah. Yeah. There's I think there's some similarities. Yeah. Because it's in between China and, and and China, China and India right there. There's something called a momo.
**Thomas** (00:42:17:12 - 00:42:22:20):
It's, Yeah. It's like, it's like a, pot sticker, kind of, but a lot. Yeah.
**Chip** (00:42:23:00 - 00:42:41:21):
Yeah, it's it's like a little, like picture, like a meatball, wrapped in, delicious breading. You know, it's like. It's like a little, what's the word I'm looking for? Like a, like a, not a one time, but, like a pot sticker. Pot sticker? Yeah, yeah, yeah. And it's just these little. And it's. You can get it with, like, chicken or beef.
I think beef is like the, the most standard one. And then they have like a vegetarian one and my wife likes it's like spinach and and potatoes like it's great. And it's, it's these little like dough balls with it. And I bit it. So we grab some and they're like, they're so good. And we're standing there and I bit into my first one.
I was so excited for my first mobile forever. Eat in the most inappropriate. Like, if anybody saw it move like it was so disgusting. I even just just I bit into it. And just the liquid that shot out of this thing.
**Thomas** (00:43:17:23 - 00:43:19:04):
**Chip** (00:43:19:06 - 00:43:40:15):
A pornographic amount of liquid shot out, like my wife is three feet away from me, and it landed all over her t shirt and shorts. Just a spray of just momo juice. And, I think I ruined her shirt. She's trying to get the stains out, but, Delicious. Delicious. Momo, just.
**Thomas** (00:43:40:15 - 00:43:53:14):
Mama is. That's. Well, and I this might be dicey territory because I literally don't know. But I do know that Momo is a derogatory slang for some type or group of people.
**Chip** (00:43:53:19 - 00:43:57:17):
I mean, it might be. Yeah. I mean, so apologies all around, but that's so weird. Things are called.
**Thomas** (00:43:57:23 - 00:43:59:15):
Like.
With all sincerity, I mean, no disrespect, but I've definitely heard Joey Diaz call people. Bobo's.
**Chip** (00:44:06:11 - 00:44:08:10):
Okay. All right. It's interesting.
**Thomas** (00:44:08:15 - 00:44:12:16):
I don't know what it means, but we're talking about the the appropriate name for a yes.
**Chip** (00:44:12:22 - 00:44:19:07):
For for this Himalayan food, which are delicious, by the way. It is one. Yeah. Favorite, favorite things in the world? Yeah.
**Thomas** (00:44:19:14 - 00:44:28:00):
Dude, that is very tasty. Well, a my goals, first are about this podcast.
**Chip** (00:44:28:01 - 00:44:30:00):
Yep. That's that's another one of mine, too. Yeah.
**Thomas** (00:44:30:00 - 00:44:49:01):
We're we're getting these that we're getting this up off the ground. Episode 14. Yeah. We're we're growing, but we want to grow more, and we want to put in the effort to do the right things to do that. Yeah. So the projects that are currently in work is like, you know, developing a website for the podcast for SEO reasons.
You're supposed to put every episode up on, kind of like a blog style website, right? Put the transcript up there so it can be discoverable for what's actually in there. And yeah, you link it back and forth. So we're going to be doing that. We're going to start running some tasteful ads.
**Chip** (00:45:05:05 - 00:45:05:17):
Here we are.
**Thomas** (00:45:05:20 - 00:45:20:21):
Yeah. Promoting certain clips. And then we've also been doing the shorts game. Right. Clipping up the podcast, getting it into the algorithmic things just to get your beautiful face. In front of the people so they know we're here and what we're doing.
**Chip** (00:45:20:22 - 00:45:23:09):
And to get your beautiful hamstrings in front of the world.
**Thomas** (00:45:23:10 - 00:45:40:15):
Yeah, I do, I do do hamstring photography after every episode and before every episode. Yeah. If you want those before and after, follow us on Instagram at Sunburnt Pod. For tied up, close ups on some tight, hairy, hammies.
**Chip** (00:45:40:17 - 00:45:43:11):
Tight hairy Hammies dawg.
**Thomas** (00:45:45:03 - 00:45:46:03):
Dot biz.
**Chip** (00:45:46:08 - 00:45:46:14):
That.
**Thomas** (00:45:48:02 - 00:45:56:17):
Yeah. So that's like, that's a big thing I've got, you know, got a big software project that I've been working on.
**Chip** (00:45:56:21 - 00:45:58:11):
Company, which I'm excited about.
**Thomas** (00:45:58:11 - 00:46:21:15):
Yeah, it's very exciting. It'll be coming out soon. So just getting to the finish line with that, doing some testing on it at the moment. That'll be that'll be great to, to get off the plate and on to the next one there. We're going to work on some fitness specifically, like we're kind of in the same place, going to try and and drop that 10 pounds.
**Chip** (00:46:21:15 - 00:46:22:08):
Yeah.
**Thomas** (00:46:23:08 - 00:46:43:04):
Moving forward to that. And, I want to do that before for me and my good buddy Chip Chantry reunite, in New York City this summer. One of the goals was to get together, and we we put our heads together, found a time that worked, and we are going to be rumbling. And New York City in June.
Chip.
**Chip** (00:46:43:18 - 00:46:59:01):
Should we tell him where we're going? Yeah. Tell that so yeah. So and again not let's let's pull the, the curtain back here. I think we at Tommy and I have a good rapport. We've been friends for a decade now, which is crazy coming up on a decade. How we talk to each other every day. We do this thing.
I think it feels like we are always in the same room because it. Just with the magic of the internet, it feels like we're there, but, you know. Yeah, he's in LA, I'm in Philly. So as much as we talk and hang out, we're not in the same room together. I think the last time we were you were in Philly in October of last year, right.
So like, yeah, like a year and a half ago is when we physically high fived for the last time. And, but, yeah, we're you're going to be in, New York City, in just over a month. I'm. And it just so happens, like, I was going to come up and see you anyway, or you were coming from here.
It just so happens I'm going to be in New York. So we my first time, I think, in New York since the pandemic, it just so happens I'll be at the same time, I'm up there with some buddies. We're going to see a concert, my first concert at Madison Square Garden. We're going to see the band goose, which is okay, let's just say it.
It's a jam band. Okay? Let's just rip the Band-Aid off right there. Yes it is. Yeah, I bet I was a fish head fish kid growing up in college and stuff. Love that. And I begrudgingly, I kind of got away from the jam. I think I begrudgingly went to go see the band goose with my buddy Brian this, last year, and, just fell in love with it.
Me and my other buddy went sort of dragging our heel. We're just like, do we really want to go see this again? Is blown away by goose. They're this amazing band. They're great. They're very accessible jam band. So if you're if you're like, I can't they're they're great. It's a little more mainstream, really good stuff. And we're going to see them.
It just so happens it's the weekend that you're going to be up there and, you're going to come out and see goose for the first time with us.
**Thomas** (00:48:32:12 - 00:48:54:02):
Yeah, they're they couldn't work out any better. I'm really excited about it. Thanks to my wife, who has agreed to just watch the baby by herself in a foreign land. So daddy can go out and have an appropriate amount of drinks to watch a jam band. I'm fired up about it, man. I've heard nothing but great things about that band, and I just can't wait to hang in, to, to hang with your crew to it.
It'll be great.
**Chip** (00:48:54:21 - 00:49:06:16):
And I'm going to say right now, Madison Square Garden will be holding up 20 less pounds of human weight between the two of us in just over a month time. That is my that's my goal.
**Thomas** (00:49:06:16 - 00:49:09:19):
Yeah. The load bearing supports on that stadium. You're going to thank us?
**Chip** (00:49:10:00 - 00:49:12:05):
Yeah. Penn Station will be safe.
**Thomas** (00:49:12:14 - 00:49:18:06):
Speaking of a band we've talked about before, the first concert I saw at Madison Square Garden was Death Cab for cutie.
**Chip** (00:49:18:08 - 00:49:20:08):
Nice, nice. Yeah.
**Thomas** (00:49:20:10 - 00:49:22:00):
And then I've, I've also seen.
**Chip** (00:49:22:01 - 00:49:25:11):
Was that during your. Was at it during your time of the TV show that we were on?
**Thomas** (00:49:25:13 - 00:49:35:01):
It was during. Yeah, it was during the time of the TV show we were on. It yeah, it actually I was supposed to go with our boss.
**Chip** (00:49:35:03 - 00:49:35:16):
**Thomas** (00:49:35:18 - 00:49:46:04):
He canceled on me. And, I got to ask the woman who I had gone on one date with. It was like kind of our second date. My, who's currently my wife.
**Chip** (00:49:46:06 - 00:49:47:01):
Nice.
**Thomas** (00:49:47:07 - 00:50:06:00):
Oh that's. Yeah. We went saw that. And I've also seen, Burr sell that place out. Bill Burr unbelievable. Yeah. And, yeah, I saw I saw John Mulaney there, too. That last time I was in New York, we went and saw, similarly at the, Madison. I can't believe comedians are selling out these stadiums.
**Chip** (00:50:06:00 - 00:50:14:08):
Arenas. It's wild. It's. Yeah, it's it is. It's crazy. I haven't seen an arena standup show before. It's it's got to be an experience.
**Thomas** (00:50:14:10 - 00:50:19:00):
Yeah. I mean, I think soon enough you'll just be doing one check horse.
**Chip** (00:50:19:02 - 00:50:20:16):
Of course I will be.
**Thomas** (00:50:20:16 - 00:50:38:03):
Yeah, but yeah, it it's one of those things. It's just like I at a certain point, like, you've got to understand what's going on. But for me, for me, the bigger the venue I was in, the stronger the lights. And, like, the less I could see anything past the second row.
**Chip** (00:50:38:05 - 00:50:39:02):
Right?
**Thomas** (00:50:39:04 - 00:50:43:10):
Yeah. Unless they turn the house lights on, then I would just. That would. That would freak me out.
**Chip** (00:50:43:10 - 00:51:05:18):
It doesn't matter. Yeah, I actually I mean I prefer I mean an arena is a is a different situation which brings its own issues I think. But like I like a bigger venue as far as, like a, as long as it's set up like an again, a sports arena is a tough place for comedy. But if I'm doing like a again, a 40 seat comedy club, like a tiny little room or a seat or even a 300 seat.
But if I'm doing like a 2000 seater, like an, like an old opera hall or something like that. Yeah. People think you're like, are you more nervous for that? I'm like, no, I'm less nervous because it's all the attention is on me. There's not waitstaff walking around. Everybody's sitting in the dark. They've paid good money. They're all facing forward.
They're ready, they're ready to go. And that's yeah, I love a nice big room. Yeah, but an arena that's a that is a different that's a different list. I think you have to do it. There's a different pacing to it I think.
**Thomas** (00:51:32:00 - 00:51:37:03):
Yeah. Because it's like the people in the back are hearing it at a different time than you're saying.
**Chip** (00:51:37:03 - 00:51:47:13):
And there's a lot more movement. It's not the theater opera hall kind of thing where it's like, right. It's like people are in and out, they're getting drinks, they're more drunk, probably. There's it's.
**Thomas** (00:51:47:13 - 00:51:48:00):
Right.
**Chip** (00:51:48:01 - 00:51:54:20):
It's like literally monster trucks perform in the same arena as this. Comedians performing.
**Thomas** (00:51:54:22 - 00:52:05:18):
I think there is something about those nice theaters or opera houses like, yeah, the the niceness of the environment convinces you you should act like a grown up.
**Chip** (00:52:05:21 - 00:52:12:08):
And that's a big thing. And I think with the arena, it's like, yeah, I've seen ice hockey games here. Yeah, I can be wild, you know?
**Thomas** (00:52:12:09 - 00:52:22:10):
No. Yeah. It's like when you're going to go pee in a trough full of ice. Yeah. You're going to act a little bit different than, when, you know, the butler's going to hand you a white towel on your way.
**Chip** (00:52:22:10 - 00:52:24:14):
Out and getting that mint exact.
**Thomas** (00:52:24:16 - 00:52:25:01):
Right.
**Chip** (00:52:25:03 - 00:52:28:01):
There's a there's a little bit of classiness into it. Yeah.
**Thomas** (00:52:28:03 - 00:52:44:03):
I love that. Dude. I'm so excited. I'm so excited to hang out. We're going to hang out beforehand. We've got like, a Friday Saturday situation where we're the boys are cleared to be the boys. Dude, dude, I'm so I'm so excited about it. That's coming up in just a month, man.
**Chip** (00:52:44:04 - 00:53:02:02):
Yeah. Oh, and speaking of that, so we got our goals and I, by the way, my one other goal this summer is just to keep putting this hour together again. I have six months until, until the, the, the Thanksgiving in Paradise. It's just too I'm just just trying to get get on the road as much as I can do bunch shows.
I'm doing a show. I'm going up to, Portland, Maine this summer with, with my wife. We're going to take a little mini vacation, but I'm doing a show up in Portland. So if you're in the area. I love a little.
**Thomas** (00:53:11:05 - 00:53:12:07):
Organization, dude.
**Chip** (00:53:12:07 - 00:53:20:01):
Yeah. So. Yeah. So it's just like building this. Oh, I'm also going to Nebraska this summer. Beautiful. Nebraska.
**Thomas** (00:53:20:04 - 00:53:20:20):
Yeah.
**Chip** (00:53:20:22 - 00:53:39:04):
In a exactly a month. I think I'll be there, for the Great American Comedy Fest. So I got asked to do the Great American Comedy Festival in this little town in Nebraska that is Johnny Carson's hometown. So I'll be doing some time there. And, I'm, I'm really excited about that. Yeah, but speaking of goose and, getting our music on.
**Thomas** (00:53:39:08 - 00:53:40:04):
Yeah.
**Chip** (00:53:40:11 - 00:53:44:13):
We have a little present for the listeners.
**Thomas** (00:53:44:15 - 00:53:46:02):
Just a little ear candy chip.
**Chip** (00:53:46:05 - 00:54:08:20):
Just a little. I mean, we give them the eye candy all the time. Yeah. Now we're going to go, to a little ear candy. We have put together. We've started to put together because this is a work in progress. We have started to assemble a sunburnt 2025 playlist, the island playlist. Yeah. And when you're out on the beach, whether it's a tropical beach or at the Jersey shore, wherever you are.
Or maybe you just want to the beach in your mind, you are working. It's a cold, long December as the county crows said, but you want to feel like you're at the beach. We've started to put together a playlist. It's now available on Apple Music. Just sunburnt 2025. I've made it shareable. I think you're going to put the same one up on Spotify, so it'll be up on Spotify.
**Thomas** (00:54:31:16 - 00:54:38:08):
When I figure out how to how to do that on Spotify. Oh, it's going up and I'm sure it'll race straight to the top of the charts. Yep.
**Chip** (00:54:38:10 - 00:55:00:03):
100%. Yeah, absolutely. So some of it I got some I got some surf music on there. I figured like that would be good, a little perfect, some ventures, some Dick Dale, you know, some of that great stuff. We got some Marley got to have some Marley on there. Obviously, some the the original burnt one.
Jimmy Buffett. We got some. We got some Buffett playing there.
**Thomas** (00:55:02:08 - 00:55:03:13):
The man dead.
**Chip** (00:55:04:02 - 00:55:20:15):
Exactly I but then I mixed it up, I wanted to make a little bit more modern, bring it into the the 90s into the 2000. So I got some Pixies playing Pixies. If we got that that surf rock kind of feel. I do have some goose to really make it a little bit more, more fun.
We got some, got some goose in there, but again, it got some Beach Boys. Maybe a little bit of Jack Johnson. It's I, it's just a fun. Is this the, the greatest, most cutting edge, musically intricate playlist of all time? No. Is this the playlist that you want to just have some fun getting a vibe, feel good, smile on your face, get a little sunshine, slather on some of that sunblock.
This is the yes, this is the playlist that you want. So sunburnt 2025 look it up. Yeah, I think it's. But again, it's a work in progress. So if you have any suggestions, if you have any fun beach or summertime music that you think we're missing on this, let us know. Because, I want to add it to it, make it a robust playlist.
**Thomas** (00:56:09:08 - 00:56:26:07):
Yeah. And it sounds like there's a ton of great music out there. It's it's kind of fun as a community just to know that, like, there's some other people who are listening to the same tunes in the same order, like we used to just be able to listen to albums and know that, like, there's a lot of other people that are having this experience to listen to these songs in this order.
I, I miss that. I don't I do not like things that are engineered just for me.
**Chip** (00:56:31:16 - 00:56:49:13):
It has to be. That's why also that's why I loved A weekend. I came from the the video store generation. Yeah. Of like you would go you get I thing. But you knew other people were buying these things just like oh did you rent Howard the Duck? Yes, I rented Howard the Duck were all what even were in our living rooms.
We know that other people are watching it around the same time. It's the big new movie out at the video store. There's. There's something about that. That collection, that, that I think is that that is sort of, tailored to a group of people. And it's like, no, these are my people. This is yeah, this is this is what I, you know, we're we're all we're all viewing this together on Spotify.
**Thomas** (00:57:14:10 - 00:57:30:13):
Like, I found this out recently. A lot of the playlists that they kind of show you or that you search are made specifically for you with AI based off of what you listened to before. Yeah. And it's sometimes it's great, like there's some good tunes on there and it keeps you hearing new music that you wouldn't have heard of before.
**Chip** (00:57:30:15 - 00:57:31:07):
**Thomas** (00:57:31:09 - 00:57:41:09):
But it is one step removed from a shared experience or a human curated playlist. Like somebody thought this would be good in the right order. It's really split. And again.
**Chip** (00:57:41:11 - 00:57:57:16):
Going back to that video sort of thing, or like when you go to the record store to like buy CDs. Yeah, it's like it was curated because there was that guy behind the counter that was about 15 years older than you. He's been working this place for a while. He knows what you like, but he also know, like, hey, this is what I like.
You need to check out this band that you've never heard of. And then you're like, oh, this is it. But then it's like, you find other people that like that stuff. Yeah. But again, it is there needs to be more of a community to it rather than here are Chip Chantry, this is your your video or your, track that you should listen to.
**Thomas** (00:58:13:13 - 00:58:16:08):
Thanks so much for putting that together. Check it out.
**Chip** (00:58:16:08 - 00:58:18:06):
Everybody sunburnt 2025.
**Thomas** (00:58:18:06 - 00:58:40:00):
Summer 2025 and Apple Music and soon to be had Spotify. When I can get my act together. Yeah. Well, Chip, we've got one more big thing to cover today. Yeah. And, I'm excited about it. We are going to be sharing the the worst movies you can watch on a plane ride to a tropical vacation.
**Chip** (00:58:40:06 - 00:58:49:08):
So we just shared with you a playlist of some of the best music to listen to on vacation. Yeah, we are. We are going 180 degrees the other way.
**Thomas** (00:58:49:10 - 00:58:59:07):
So, Chip and I each picked three. So ultimately this is going to be the top six movies that are guaranteed to ruin your tropical vacation.
**Chip** (00:58:59:08 - 00:59:05:06):
These are the worst movies to watch on a plane while flying to your tropical destination.
**Thomas** (00:59:05:08 - 00:59:06:11):
So I'm going to start my number three, or I guess this will be number six, the number six worst movie to watch on the way to your tropical vacation. I'm coming in hot with something we've already talked about today. There's something about Mary.
**Chip** (00:59:22:22 - 00:59:23:13):
Really?
**Thomas** (00:59:24:03 - 00:59:24:08):
Yeah.
**Chip** (00:59:24:08 - 00:59:31:09):
Absolutely. Okay, that wouldn't surprise me. It. Great movie. Oh, my favorites, but terrible to watch on the way to a travel vacation.
**Thomas** (00:59:31:14 - 00:59:39:12):
And it is just boiling down to one specific character. Mary's next door neighbor, Magda.
**Chip** (00:59:40:04 - 00:59:41:04):
Yeah.
**Thomas** (00:59:41:06 - 01:00:07:08):
This woman looks like an old catcher's mitt. She is an example of what prolongs that exposure in the worst possible case can lead to just a leathery or wrinkly tough, tough, tough, tough skin. There's even a scene where she's sitting there. She's got the reflector interface, and she is just a burning. What's left of the elasticity out of her skin.
And I think just with all the fun you want to have in the sun for a reasonable amount of time, covered with, the right skin protection. I think checking out Magda and something about Mary is going to put just a cancerous thought cycle, into, into your trip.
**Chip** (01:00:29:13 - 01:00:36:18):
Yeah. The I now I'm seeing it that way. I 100% agree. Not a good one to pop on on the way to a trip.
**Thomas** (01:00:37:03 - 01:00:39:02):
Chip, give us number five.
**Chip** (01:00:39:04 - 01:00:43:06):
All right. Number five, midsummer.
**Thomas** (01:00:43:14 - 01:00:44:10):
Okay.
No.
**Chip** (01:00:45:07 - 01:00:46:08):
Great movie.
**Thomas** (01:00:46:13 - 01:00:47:04):
Yeah.
**Chip** (01:00:47:06 - 01:01:10:17):
When you're getting on a plane to go to a destination that you're not familiar with, maybe not the best idea. It starts out wonderful for for the first half of the movie, everything's going great. Yeah. It's fun. It's literally in the middle of summer. There is a festival happening. It's not exactly in a tropical location, but it's outdoors, it's beautiful, it's vibrant, and then things go very wrong quickly.
It's it's in the same vein of like watching, like taken or hostile.
**Thomas** (01:01:16:00 - 01:01:16:15):
Yeah.
**Chip** (01:01:16:17 - 01:01:34:19):
Or human caterpillar. Human human skeleton. Caterpillar. Human centipede. You don't want to watch these things on the way to a destination where you don't know all I will say without giving anything away, cliff diving is great in Acapulco. Maybe not in northern Europe.
**Thomas** (01:01:35:11 - 01:01:40:15):
No. They can have very different ramifications when there's no water chip. Well.
**Chip** (01:01:40:17 - 01:01:42:09):
Let's let's just say let's.
**Thomas** (01:01:42:09 - 01:02:11:22):
Just say, in a similar vein, number four for me is, Tori, Easter's all right. Yeah, I it's just like, it's it's an organ harvesting horror movie where somebody is trying to tip the scales of economic justice by stealing rich people's organs. People can afford to go on vacations, and they are taking their organs. And I just think it will really sour your trip.
If every person, every new stranger you come into contact, you're like, what's the probability that this person's trying to harvest mine or a loved one's organs? You gotta keep that thought process out of your head, or else you could spoil that whole trip. Yes, it's like you can't feed into the paranoia. I already have a little bit of it to begin with, but you watch that on the plane ride to Acapulco.
Yeah, it's gotta be a bad trip.
**Chip** (01:02:38:13 - 01:02:59:23):
Yes. Yeah, yeah, I agree, I agree. My next one, I think this is number three is Waterworld. Okay, the Kevin Costner overloaded classic. If I'm flying on an airplane, let's say to Hawaii looking out the window, it does nothing but water.
**Thomas** (01:03:00:05 - 01:03:00:17):
Yeah.
**Chip** (01:03:00:19 - 01:03:10:04):
I don't need a a film to tell me what it would be like if that land that I left was not going to be there when I tried to land.
**Thomas** (01:03:10:05 - 01:03:11:07):
Yeah.
**Chip** (01:03:11:09 - 01:03:31:15):
It's just it's, like I don't need the the the flight attendant to tell me about the oxygen mask that drops down. And also have to think about, is there a device on this plane that turns urine into potable water? I don't need it. I don't need.
**Thomas** (01:03:31:17 - 01:03:51:05):
You don't need that. I also think it's a great one to have on the list, because it was one of the notable, like, the biggest bombs in Hollywood history, for the amount of money that was spent to what was recouped. And on your way to a big, you know. Right. It's going to be a big expenditure to go on one of these vacations.
You don't want to have the idea that you can spend a lot of money on something and get an absolute piece of garbage in return.
**Chip** (01:03:58:04 - 01:04:00:05):
Just a big old dud.
**Thomas** (01:04:00:07 - 01:04:15:09):
Just a big old tat. And you don't want to have that in your mind on your trip, or you're going to be buying $20 drinks, $40 meals, $2 billion worth of hotel fees, and you can just have a bad time.
**Chip** (01:04:15:11 - 01:04:16:08):
Yeah.
**Thomas** (01:04:16:10 - 01:04:24:21):
No. Come on. I think Waterworld. That's a perfect one. As is my number two, the Shining.
**Chip** (01:04:24:23 - 01:04:27:07):
Talk about talk about destinations gone bad.
**Thomas** (01:04:27:13 - 01:04:42:15):
Destinations gone bad. But like, I, you do not want to miss the idea that elevated, elevated alcohol consumption and historic places can really come together to form a terrifying mix.
**Chip** (01:04:42:17 - 01:04:43:09):
That.
**Thomas** (01:04:43:10 - 01:05:07:21):
You want your elevated alcohol consumption and your historic hotel to be the the best time you've ever had in your life. I think that brings friends and family together. A time where you can forget about your problems. A time where you can be the relaxed person you always wanted to be. You do not want to be thinking that all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.
**Chip** (01:05:07:23 - 01:05:09:22):
No, not not at all.
**Thomas** (01:05:11:05 - 01:05:15:14):
No. What's the number one chip? Hit us with the number one,
**Chip** (01:05:15:16 - 01:05:42:07):
The worst movie to watch on a plane on the way to your tropical destination is jaws. Wait for it. The revenge. Okay, okay. Jaws. Okay. For obvious reasons, we don't need a shark. Remind us what's under the water. Okay, here's the thing. I will say this. I remember the first time I saw the movie jaws. The original. Yeah.
Steven Spielberg classic film. It is to this day, my favorite movie of all time. I watched it when I was eight years old, the night before we went to the Jersey shore for vacation, and it just motivate. It gave me a little charge where I was like, all right, I'm going to be afraid in this water. But it's a challenge.
Ladies and gentlemen, it is a challenge. Let's do this. And I loved it. First of all, jaws the revenge is just a terrible movie. It is sacrilege. It is an awful film if anybody. So here's the thing. I don't want people to. I don't want the people sitting next to me or behind me on the plane to know I am watching this God awful film.
**Thomas** (01:06:21:04 - 01:06:23:13):
Yeah. You want to think you have a little more taste than that.
**Chip** (01:06:23:15 - 01:06:44:07):
Right? If if somebody is being eaten by an underwater giant, at least there is some cinematic credibility. But if it's just a bunch of kids in, I think the Bahamas that are just on one of those banana boats and they get eaten in the silliest way possible, as does Mario Van Peebles.
**Thomas** (01:06:44:09 - 01:06:45:16):
**Chip** (01:06:45:18 - 01:06:57:11):
I don't need Mario Van Peebles on my screen getting eaten in on my way to a tropical Paradise. There's there's no reason to doubt.
**Thomas** (01:06:58:01 - 01:07:01:00):
And, And Mario.
**Chip** (01:07:01:02 - 01:07:01:23):
Yeah.
**Thomas** (01:07:02:01 - 01:07:05:14):
Is that a choice you're making, or is that how you say, Mario?
**Chip** (01:07:06:00 - 01:07:09:05):
Is it's, It's not Luigi. I will say that.
**Thomas** (01:07:09:09 - 01:07:10:22):
It's definitely not Luigi.
**Chip** (01:07:10:23 - 01:07:17:05):
No, Mario. Mario, whatever it is, don't watch this movie on. Right.
**Thomas** (01:07:17:07 - 01:07:19:11):
All right. Yeah. I think all these movies would.
**Chip** (01:07:19:11 - 01:07:26:13):
Like was Michael Caine in that, too. I forget, I, I have such a I think it's Michael Caine in the movie. Or am I getting that wrong? I, I.
**Thomas** (01:07:26:13 - 01:07:29:14):
Can't even picture him in it. If he is, I forget.
**Chip** (01:07:29:20 - 01:07:53:19):
He has a, it is a is an elderly, I would say elderly an older British man who is on this and I think he, he plays the part of hoagie. The name is hoagie, but I think it is it is Michael Caine. And, it's it's just, all around. It just makes my heart. It makes my heart just sad.
**Thomas** (01:07:53:20 - 01:08:00:05):
It's a real piece of garbage. It's a hot piece of crap. And it gets you thinking about sharks in the water.
**Chip** (01:08:00:05 - 01:08:10:02):
By the way. It is. It is Michael Caine. It is Michael Caine in there. And it is, he is a, just I mean, good for him. I mean, God bless Michael Caine, but, yeah, I also.
**Thomas** (01:08:10:02 - 01:08:11:19):
Work for Michael Caine.
**Chip** (01:08:11:21 - 01:08:12:12):
Yeah.
**Thomas** (01:08:12:14 - 01:08:13:17):
Like Michael Michael Caine.
**Chip** (01:08:13:19 - 01:08:25:22):
Michael Michael Chang is a, was also around that same time an American tennis player who did very, very well. But luckily, Michael Chang was not in just the revenge.
**Thomas** (01:08:26:01 - 01:08:28:03):
He was too busy having a real job. Chip.
**Chip** (01:08:28:09 - 01:08:47:20):
Yeah, I will say there are some redeeming moments. There are some nice shots down in the Caribbean, wherever they are. There are some fun Caribbean scenes with some, some beach bar scenes where they drink. And I think Bahama mamas, I think that's what they're drinking. And, so, yeah, so there are some redeeming scenes, but most of it is just trash on an airplane.
I don't need the people around me to see that I'm. I'm viewing.
**Thomas** (01:08:50:16 - 01:09:09:18):
This. Yeah. You got to be smart. That what you watching? That flight can dictate your whole trip where your mind state is at, what your expectations are, what kind of time you're going to have. So be smart, everybody. Yeah. And be careful with what you watch on that airplane. Well, we're running out of time here. Yeah.
**Chip** (01:09:09:19 - 01:09:10:02):
We are.
**Thomas** (01:09:10:04 - 01:09:12:14):
Yeah, we got to, Is that. Is there anything you want to plug.
**Chip** (01:09:12:16 - 01:09:20:20):
That sunburnt pod? Find a subscribe. It would be great. Like us. And, also at Chip Chantry on all of the socials.
**Thomas** (01:09:20:22 - 01:09:26:22):
Yes. Sunbird pod everywhere. And, if you feel so inclined, drop a little comment.
**Chip** (01:09:27:00 - 01:09:41:01):
Yeah, yeah, let us know. Let us, let us know what one of your worst movies to watch on the way to vacation is. What's a song that should be on the playlist? Maybe that we didn't include? Make sure you, by the way, make sure you find that, sunburn 2025 on Apple Music, coming soon to Spotify.
**Thomas** (01:09:41:03 - 01:09:43:17):
And until next time, stay burnt.
**Chip** (01:09:45:03 - 01:09:54:14):
Front desk. Hi, this is Mr. Chantry in room 308. Could you please quickly send up about two dozen towels, some hot water and about a gallon and a half a milk?
**Thomas** (01:09:55:02 - 01:09:58:23):
Mr. Chantry, this is another unusual request. What? What's going on in the room?
**Chip** (01:09:58:23 - 01:10:02:07):
Oh, nothing. By the way, would you care for some baby kittens?
