**Chip** (00:00:00:00 - 00:00:03:20):
I'm not going to say the name of the place. Let's just say it was a government style building.
**Thomas** (00:00:03:20 - 00:00:04:14):
FBI. Yes.
**Chip** (00:00:04:16 - 00:00:04:23):
This is.
**Thomas** (00:00:04:23 - 00:00:10:15):
So wild. I've been talking about McConaughey and Princess Cruises Collabing for a long time.
**Chip** (00:00:10:16 - 00:00:13:12):
I think Big Brother is just big for.
**Thomas** (00:00:13:14 - 00:00:23:00):
The most part. Readers and eight hours ever. Fish of the week. Fish of the week. Our hero of the deep. The fish of the week. Do you think they were salt in the ribs?
**Chip** (00:00:23:02 - 00:00:49:00):
They were sort of a lot of stuff. I don't know. Them home. All right. It's a brownie base. Yeah. And then a layer of peanut butter. Okay, then a layer of Tollhouse cookie. Yeah. Neapolitan ice cream on top of that. And to your liking, drizzled with chocolate, caramel, toffee, a Kahlua base. And then you have whipped cream and a cherry, and then you just stick this three sleeping pills anywhere in the peanut butter.
**Thomas** (00:00:49:00 - 00:00:53:03):
And you can go to any comedy club and just ask for the The Cosby Crisp.
**Chip** (00:00:53:03 - 00:00:54:22):
Exactly. Yeah. It's delicious.
**Thomas** (00:00:55:01 - 00:01:10:20):
Oh, wow. All right. Well, to actually Chip, we just started. Man. The cameras are rolling. What up everybody? This is the sunburnt podcast where we talk about comedy and tropical travel. To my right, as always. You know him from Netflix, from his stand up special move Closer. It's Philadelphia's own chip chantry.
**Chip** (00:01:10:22 - 00:01:19:18):
And over here to my left is Emmy award winning producer writer. He puts the women in women's ice hockey. Mister Thomas O'Brien.
**Thomas** (00:01:19:19 - 00:01:30:23):
I. I love a sport I don't understand at all. From a gender. I also don't understand at all. It really is a confusion cyclone that I find a delightful.
**Chip** (00:01:31:04 - 00:01:34:20):
It's, Tonight, honey, we're going to watch Olympic hat on a hat.
That's what you're saying.
**Thomas** (00:01:36:21 - 00:01:45:13):
Can you imagine if there was an Olympic for, a gold for hat on a hat? I think we know a couple of comedy writers who would be in the running for that bad boy.
**Chip** (00:01:45:14 - 00:01:52:22):
Gold medalists all over the place. Are you not a, you're not an ice hockey guy? This is a tropical podcast.
**Thomas** (00:01:52:22 - 00:01:53:21):
It's a tropical podcast.
**Chip** (00:01:53:21 - 00:01:56:04):
So I don't expect you to, but you're not. Not an ice hockey guy.
**Thomas** (00:01:56:06 - 00:02:07:16):
The only time we've ever brought up ice hockey on the program was famously, the world record set for the most Hawaiian shirts ever worn. One place, which was at a minor league hockey game, I believe.
**Chip** (00:02:07:17 - 00:02:08:18):
Very ironically.
**Thomas** (00:02:08:18 - 00:02:31:22):
It's not that I have anything against it. Probably, I haven't seen a lot of it, but probably my favorite sport to see live compared to on television. Like you just you can't tell what's going on on the TV. The pucks move in, like, way faster than you think. The guys are way bigger and quicker, and you think they're hitting each other hard and you think and you get there in real life, you're like, this is insane, dude.
**Chip** (00:02:31:23 - 00:02:36:15):
To see live ice hockey is is it's yeah. In person is the is the way to watch it.
**Thomas** (00:02:36:15 - 00:02:40:03):
It's so much fun because there's a little heat on that ice, baby.
**Chip** (00:02:40:08 - 00:02:41:18):
Yeah, yeah. There is.
**Thomas** (00:02:41:20 - 00:02:44:05):
A heated rivalry. Some might say. Yeah.
**Chip** (00:02:44:07 - 00:02:47:21):
And just, they shave that I sometimes too.
**Thomas** (00:02:47:23 - 00:02:49:02):
You gotta shave it. You like.
**Chip** (00:02:49:02 - 00:02:49:13):
About it?
**Thomas** (00:02:49:15 - 00:03:02:22):
Yeah, it gotta shave it. If you want the rivalry to be that heated. I think. Right. Well, let's get into the rundown, everybody. We had a just, hot a burning hot episode coming up.
**Chip** (00:03:03:00 - 00:03:05:08):
Hot, hot hot and cold cold cold.
**Thomas** (00:03:05:10 - 00:03:33:05):
We're going to talk about travel, tech and trends. We're taking a little trip to the hypochondriac corner. We got, beauty of a fish of the week. We're getting the good book, some world records, and then, we're going to give you an opportunity to call in to the Trouble in Paradise hotline. That number is (310) 845-6038. Leave us a voicemail of the worst trip story you have.
We want to hear the dirt. The grittiest, the grimy best.
**Chip** (00:03:37:00 - 00:03:39:14):
It could also be the funniest or the most embarrassing.
**Thomas** (00:03:39:14 - 00:03:49:00):
And if we choose to use it here on the podcast, we will email you a, tub of Hawaiian Tropic sunscreen.
**Chip** (00:03:49:01 - 00:03:51:05):
Why tropic? I put some on right now.
**Thomas** (00:03:51:05 - 00:03:57:16):
Yeah, let's do it, dude. Let's get that old fashioned slather going. I'm rockin SPF 50.
**Chip** (00:03:57:18 - 00:04:09:19):
Do I not need this today, buddy? It is, 30 to 30 degrees in Philadelphia. I'm talking to you under 14in of snow that we received Sunday into yesterday.
**Thomas** (00:04:09:19 - 00:04:10:13):
Oh, my goodness.
**Chip** (00:04:10:13 - 00:04:17:07):
14in of snow. Lie above me on the streets of Philadelphia. And, it is, it's frigid out.
**Thomas** (00:04:17:07 - 00:04:19:09):
Dude. That's chilly. It's a nor'easter.
**Chip** (00:04:19:09 - 00:04:24:07):
They say it is. It is. I'm ready for a southwest air, I'll tell you that.
**Thomas** (00:04:24:09 - 00:04:31:04):
Well, as much as you might not need the sunscreen physically, I think mentally. Ooh, mentally.
**Chip** (00:04:31:04 - 00:04:32:02):
Emotionally, it.
**Thomas** (00:04:32:05 - 00:04:34:20):
I'm already transported getting that hit in the nostrils.
**Chip** (00:04:34:20 - 00:04:37:01):
It's like Mister Rogers putting on the sweater.
**Thomas** (00:04:37:01 - 00:04:40:00):
Except without bringing comfort to millions of children.
**Chip** (00:04:40:00 - 00:04:40:16):
Exactly.
**Thomas** (00:04:40:17 - 00:05:04:15):
It's the opposite. That just makes, hundreds of adults feel a little weird. And I look a little shiny. And I love it all. Baby, I've taken this small journey. A little mini vacation with your buds, Chip and Thomas. This is the sunburn podcast where we talking about Covid and Tropic Travel. If you think those two things should go together, if in your mind that's a good time, stay tuned.
Front desk.
**Chip** (00:05:05:09 - 00:05:09:18):
Hi, this is Mr. Chantry in room 308. Could you set up a dozen steamers?
**Thomas** (00:05:09:20 - 00:05:13:19):
A dozen steamers, Mr. Chantry, how much laundry are you doing?
**Chip** (00:05:13:21 - 00:05:20:13):
Oh, no, I'm shooting my America's Got Talent submission video. And one of the goats bit through the wire on the smoke machine.
**Thomas** (00:05:20:15 - 00:05:22:05):
Sending them right up.
**Chip** (00:05:22:07 - 00:05:24:04):
Okeydokey, champ. Thomas.
**Thomas** (00:05:24:05 - 00:05:31:05):
What up, buddy? Episode 51 of the sunburnt podcast. Dude, we are coming dangerously close to that one year mark.
**Chip** (00:05:31:05 - 00:05:31:17):
Here we are.
**Thomas** (00:05:31:17 - 00:05:36:03):
I believe we started on March 6th last year in the wild.
**Chip** (00:05:36:05 - 00:05:39:00):
And we got in 51 episodes and see. Okay. Yeah. This makes.
**Thomas** (00:05:39:01 - 00:05:43:04):
Yeah, we doubled up in a couple of weeks. A couple of weeks we took off.
**Chip** (00:05:43:05 - 00:05:47:09):
But. And then we're almost done. February. It feels like we just started it, but, Yeah.
**Thomas** (00:05:47:14 - 00:05:55:00):
Well, that's that short months. That's that short month. Dude, if you were a month, wouldn't you like to be February? You do less work than all the other month.
**Chip** (00:05:55:00 - 00:05:56:16):
You get a couple vacations in there. Yeah.
**Thomas** (00:05:56:16 - 00:06:00:19):
Sometimes you get an extra day. Yeah. You're the only month that has any kind of variety.
**Chip** (00:06:00:19 - 00:06:09:17):
It really is. And then, I mean, I mean, can you imagine being March coming in like a lion, going out with a lamb just the amount of just the amount of hair. Care for.
**Thomas** (00:06:09:17 - 00:06:22:08):
That? An April? You're mostly getting showered for May's flowers. You know, it's easy to feel swept under the rug when you're just, you know, the the opening act, a perennial. Exactly. Okay, why don't we get into the show up?
00:06:22:10 – 00:06:24:05 UNRESOLVED – Yes.
All right. It's time for a for the algo.
**Chip** (00:06:27:15 - 00:06:28:18):
For the algo, baby.
00:06:28:19 – 00:06:29:16 UNRESOLVED –
**Thomas** (00:06:29:18 - 00:06:35:05):
A segment where we talk about things that tries to get computers to like us in this podcast.
**Chip** (00:06:35:05 - 00:06:37:17):
We are the A in AI.
**Thomas** (00:06:37:19 - 00:07:03:21):
Yeah, we're awesome and we're informative. That's why we talk about this information. First we're going to a little travel tech news. TSA announced that touchless ID, where you can be identified without any physical contact ever, is expanding to 30 more airports this spring. Whoa. That is in addition to the 28 airports and most marriages where the program has already been working successfully.
**Chip** (00:07:03:22 - 00:07:22:05):
Exactly. Okay, I dealt with this recently. I'm not going to say the name of the place, but let's just say it was a government style building. Yeah, okay. I was doing some work. FBI at. Yes. And I walk in. What if that's what it took to break me? I can't say the name of it is governor. Do you like me?
I'm like, yes, sure, sure. Yeah. Okay. Yeah, fine, fine. So I go in and you got to give your driver's license ID, and then you do the thing on the iPad. That's like hanging out there like John five, you know, and it's like, all right, you know, look at the thing. Press a button, it'll take a picture.
Yeah. And then it generates a little sticker, a little ID badge, you know. Yeah. So I'm like, okay. And then I went back two weeks later to a different building in that same sort of. It's even it was like five miles away, but like in the same, organization. Yeah. And it like I just walked in and they're like, oh, yeah, I need your stuff.
And then I hit the button. They're like, oh, yeah, you don't need anything. It just it's like, welcome, Mr. Chantry. It was just I was so in like ten miles away. Different building, same system, but like. And I just glanced at it and they knew exactly who I was. Yeah. Either this is the new reality that we live in, and computers are really taking over and will be able to follow us.
And whoever the powers that be have that ability to track our every move. Or or that computer is a big comedy fan.
**Thomas** (00:08:31:00 - 00:08:40:19):
I was going to say, like, maybe the computer just saw move closer. You're on the tip of. It's a little computer tongue. Yeah. And it's just like, a seagull stole my funnel cake.
**Chip** (00:08:40:21 - 00:08:43:18):
Right? I was like, that's the guy. You were the guy?
**Thomas** (00:08:43:19 - 00:08:44:13):
That's the guy?
**Chip** (00:08:44:13 - 00:08:45:12):
Yes, that's what it is.
**Thomas** (00:08:45:12 - 00:08:52:06):
I know maybe that maybe that, computer system just went to Wildwood and just really resonated with the material chip.
**Chip** (00:08:52:08 - 00:08:57:02):
And I, that's what I'm going to go with, I think. Big brother. Yeah, he's just a big fan.
**Thomas** (00:08:57:05 - 00:09:03:23):
Yeah, big brother's big fan. It's good to be in big company.
**Chip** (00:09:04:00 - 00:09:05:03):
Yeah it is, yeah it is.
**Thomas** (00:09:05:05 - 00:09:07:13):
There's nothing artificial about that fandom that I'll tell you that.
**Chip** (00:09:07:13 - 00:09:11:20):
So do you think it's going to make it easier? Like, are you going to go through TSA faster now? I mean.
**Thomas** (00:09:11:20 - 00:09:29:11):
That's what they're saying I think I think it could, but like what what's the trade off. We have no idea. We have no idea what we're actually signing away. Like they had that thing with the ring cameras. Do you see that Super Bowl ad about the ring cameras and then being able to, like, connect to all the ring cameras in your neighborhood to find, like, lost pets and stuff.
**Chip** (00:09:29:13 - 00:09:30:02):
Right.
**Thomas** (00:09:30:04 - 00:09:51:23):
So that was actually them introducing a program. From my understanding, I could be wrong. I'm a moron. But, from the dark web blogs I read, it said that was them introducing a program that was like they're saying, like it's for dogs, but it's really for police and all the agencies to take over everybody's ring cams for whatever they want.
**Chip** (00:09:52:00 - 00:10:18:05):
The amount of petty crimes that I have not committed for that very reason, for me being just paranoid for the last few years is astounding. The the, the the minor vengeance is that I hold and the just the disdain for some of the people in that, that live around me, that I was like, oh, I could do something very funny to make their house look very embarrassing.
Like nothing super. I'm not talking about destruction of property necessarily, anything like that. But just like we're.
**Thomas** (00:10:23:00 - 00:10:26:00):
Pantsing some, some elves. Right?
**Chip** (00:10:26:03 - 00:10:44:08):
Exactly. I'm not doing because I'm like, oh, everybody has a ring doorbell. Yeah. We do. We do not have one. We just have a let's just say we hire a man that we found on the internet. Yeah. And he just sits motionless in our front window. And he just watches.
**Thomas** (00:10:44:09 - 00:10:46:02):
Security, Ric.
**Chip** (00:10:46:04 - 00:10:46:13):
Security.
00:10:46:13 – 00:10:48:10 UNRESOLVED – Ric.
**Thomas** (00:10:48:12 - 00:10:55:22):
Security. Ric. A Chantry household classic. Speaking of, you know, Ric loves to watch. He's a watcher.
**Chip** (00:10:55:23 - 00:10:58:01):
You're preaching to the choir. Maybe.
**Thomas** (00:10:58:03 - 00:11:15:07):
Let's talk about a new vein of travel. Hobbies, chap. Oh, this is on the up. This is a real thing. Hushed hobbies, baby. More travelers are booking slow trips centered around quiet activities like moth watching, foraging or birdwatching.
**Chip** (00:11:15:07 - 00:11:38:15):
Okay, that also just sounds like the economy's going down. And, do you want to go to a five star resort? Yeah. In Cancun. Yeah. Or do you wanna go look at moths for a week? And they're like, well, it's the mall, I think. I think it's really intrinsically the moths. Not that we can't afford any of this, so we're just going to go look at look at bugs.
I think I not even but not even butterflies.
**Thomas** (00:11:41:21 - 00:11:45:17):
Thomas I know it's a butterflies ugly cousin.
**Chip** (00:11:45:19 - 00:11:49:02):
That is an echelon a little out of my pay grade.
**Thomas** (00:11:49:02 - 00:11:54:16):
It's a meet and greet with Brad Pitt's brother.
But I do think interests do vary, and some people just might like a little bit of a slower pace. I actually, you know, I've, we've been in this, like, tourism marketing type of vertical for a while, and I had an idea of actually putting together a hobby style trip here to Los Angeles. Okay, just see here how this tickles you.
**Chip** (00:12:15:23 - 00:12:17:23):
Hey, by the. By the way, are you saying hushed hobby?
**Thomas** (00:12:17:23 - 00:12:19:14):
Hushed, hushed hobby.
**Chip** (00:12:19:14 - 00:12:21:01):
Okay. Hushed hobby. Okay.
**Thomas** (00:12:21:03 - 00:12:55:09):
If you're looking for a hushed hobby trip like no other and you don't mind salty air or language, this March or early April, you can book a trip to beautiful Los Angeles and watch me do my taxes. Okay, this semi tropical escape is especially exciting because every time I sell a ticket, you get to watch me get excited, get a little confused, and then grow frustrated as I slowly realize this new financial activity means I may have to start my taxes over.
**Chip** (00:12:55:09 - 00:12:55:22):
I like it.
**Thomas** (00:12:55:22 - 00:13:10:08):
Tickets start at $10,000. Kirkland Cold Brew coffee in a can is provided. One can per ticket for you to enjoy while you watch me curse at my computer and I hit a bunch of space bars in back spaces.
**Chip** (00:13:10:12 - 00:13:12:22):
You are the Mothman of Culver City, is what you're saying.
**Thomas** (00:13:12:22 - 00:13:33:21):
My eyes have nothing on me doing my taxes. Oh, it gets fiery. There's emotion, there's confusion. There is me being like, why doesn't this just work? Why didn't it come over straight from the bank into this program like it said it would after I gave it all of my banking information? What gives? Why does the government hate me?
Why do I have to do this? And then I truly get confused. Especially when I get to the investments portion. Chip.
**Chip** (00:13:43:08 - 00:13:56:19):
Oh, that's the worst I had to. I did do some paperwork for some, for an acting job I did recently, and, man was there screaming and cursing. Just a little bit of crying. I saw a little bit of crying.
**Thomas** (00:13:57:00 - 00:13:58:07):
It is challenging.
**Chip** (00:13:58:07 - 00:14:06:17):
I will say, I will say this. I am not a man of fancy stature. You know me, I don't. I'm a yeah, meat potatoes kind of guy.
**Thomas** (00:14:06:23 - 00:14:10:19):
Yeah. You're a ball cap in a Hawaiian shirt in a basement type of guy.
**Chip** (00:14:10:21 - 00:14:13:21):
Exactly. I mean, you nailed me.
**Thomas** (00:14:13:23 - 00:14:16:08):
Not yet, but I will.
**Chip** (00:14:16:10 - 00:14:35:11):
My my father used to have his own business, and and, like, nothing fancy, but, you know, he owned his a he was in business for himself. And so he was told, and like, rightfully so, he he from that time on, always paid an accountant to do his taxes. Yeah. And I just I've carried that on my entire adult life.
I've never once done my taxes by myself because I wouldn't be able to. And like, I consider myself a fairly I'm pretty good with numbers. Yeah. I'm a, I think I'm a fairly intelligent person. I can follow directions, I can read, and the amount of despair that it would cost me is like, here's, here's a little bit of money.
Just take care of it. And then this very nice man in a tie and short sleeves, does my taxes. And two weeks later he calls me, says, come sign them and I sign them, and I don't even look. And it's all over there is there was an episode, you know, people talk about the very special episodes of sitcoms back in the 80s and 90s, which was.
**Thomas** (00:15:14:20 - 00:15:17:09):
Code for somebody sick or somebody dying. Right?
**Chip** (00:15:17:09 - 00:15:21:16):
Yeah. Or or somebody getting, let's just say, so, so,
**Thomas** (00:15:21:18 - 00:15:22:13):
Bullet.
**Chip** (00:15:22:15 - 00:15:27:07):
Boy, you're saying in a very nice way somebody is getting touched in their bathing suit area. Oh, that was another big one.
**Thomas** (00:15:27:08 - 00:15:28:15):
Oh, yeah.
**Chip** (00:15:28:17 - 00:15:33:01):
That was it. That was a that was a big one. Boy, all of a sudden it's like hijinx stops and and it's this week.
**Thomas** (00:15:33:05 - 00:15:45:02):
Nope. That's some Epstein Island stuff. Calling that a very special episode instead of a very horrific episode. Yes. It's like that was that was Hollywood conditioning. All of us be like, that's kind of special.
**Chip** (00:15:45:03 - 00:15:51:20):
It's kind of special. It's sort of it's sort of special. Here's Christopher, you talking directly to camera now for seconds. It's a little.
**Thomas** (00:15:51:20 - 00:15:53:03):
Silly.
**Chip** (00:15:53:05 - 00:16:15:07):
It's just goofy and extra. But one of the episodes of television of my childhood that still to this day haunts me was just. And it's so random, but it's it's there's little things that bother you. Yeah. It was an episode of Roseanne, okay, where Dan was trying to do the taxes. And just the stress of, like, they don't have a lot of money.
**Thomas** (00:16:15:07 - 00:16:15:21):
Yeah.
**Chip** (00:16:15:23 - 00:16:31:16):
Plus, it's due the next day. Yeah, he doesn't understand it. He's kind of yelling at everybody because he's stressed out. Yeah, and it's just like that visceral moment. And then I think the end of the episode, he finally goes down to like the post office or whatever, and then just files for an extension.
00:16:31:18 – 00:16:32:13 UNRESOLVED – Like, that's.
That's what. And it's just to this day it gives me anxiety.
**Thomas** (00:16:36:15 - 00:16:42:02):
Dude. So you think big accounting might have been behind the whole Roseanne program?
**Chip** (00:16:42:04 - 00:16:45:17):
H&R block, maybe this week, sponsored by H&R block.
**Thomas** (00:16:45:18 - 00:16:51:05):
Maybe it's all leading to taking a young chip Chantry and making him an accountant customer for life.
**Chip** (00:16:51:05 - 00:16:54:18):
Yeah, 100%. All right. That was that was big accounting doing that. And they.
**Thomas** (00:16:54:18 - 00:17:10:17):
Won. I hate to point it out, but I think you might be my target customer. Chip. Okay. Not only is it, the exhilarating slow, hushed hobby pace of me doing my taxes, but it's like literally a road you've never walked before.
**Chip** (00:17:10:20 - 00:17:21:00):
I can live vicariously through you. It's almost like. It's almost like a adult fantasy camp. Yeah. It's like, oh, this is what a functioning adult is like. Yeah, I can watch this for three hours.
**Thomas** (00:17:21:00 - 00:17:39:06):
And I mean, I can't tell you enough like I have a fridge full of these baddies. Right. So yeah, you only get one for free or one included. It's not for free. The tickets, $10,000. Sure. You get to come down here and see real life confusion, about the American financial system and my place in it.
**Chip** (00:17:39:12 - 00:17:42:19):
Okay. I'm sold. I'm sold. I'm in. Morpheus. Be damned.
00:17:43:00 – 00:17:44:09 UNRESOLVED –
**Thomas** (00:17:44:11 - 00:17:55:05):
Or or I'm taking down those mice. All right, everybody, that's it for, for the algo. Now we're moving on to hypochondriac corner here.
**Chip** (00:17:55:05 - 00:18:02:02):
We, we're in the corner, and, boy, is it stuffy in here in this corner because I don't think I'm breathing. Right.
**Thomas** (00:18:02:04 - 00:18:03:19):
It could be. It's possible.
**Chip** (00:18:03:19 - 00:18:15:20):
That's how much of a hypochondriac I am. So I have something for hypochondriac corner this week. You and I both, noted, well documented, well respected. I would say, in our fields.
**Thomas** (00:18:15:21 - 00:18:23:23):
Well, I would say we are well disrespected in our assumptions about our personal health. Well respected as hypochondriacs.
**Chip** (00:18:23:23 - 00:18:45:04):
So, like I said, we are covered in a little over a foot of snow. Okay. Yeah. Sunday night into Monday morning. And so, that I will say my adult thing. I love to shovel snow. I will go out there and shovel for hours. Yeah, I love it. It's, it's a I feel like it's a good workout.
**Thomas** (00:18:45:04 - 00:18:47:13):
You're the old man from home alone.
**Chip** (00:18:47:14 - 00:18:53:21):
I am the I am, I'm just salting and smiling and murdering my family.
**Thomas** (00:18:53:23 - 00:18:57:04):
Is that what people call you, the sultan of Philadelphia?
**Chip** (00:18:57:06 - 00:18:57:17):
Yes, they.
00:18:57:18 – 00:18:58:08 UNRESOLVED – Yes, they do.
The salt. The salt in the South Philly is what they call me. And, so I go out there, I have to, because, you know, so I live in a row house, so there's no driveway, but you have to your stoop all of the. So it goes relatively quickly.
**Thomas** (00:19:10:17 - 00:19:14:12):
But you're responsible for that, though. That's your domain. You take care of business.
**Chip** (00:19:14:12 - 00:19:20:15):
The stoop the stairs, the the width of the sidewalk.
**Thomas** (00:19:20:15 - 00:19:23:11):
Stoop, stairs, sidewalk. The three asses.
**Chip** (00:19:23:11 - 00:19:40:05):
Stoop, stair, sidewalk. Yes. And then, I, I like to go we have, we some, some pretty good neighbors and we just generally help each other out. Yeah. There is a lady that's about 3 or 4 doors down. You know, she's a little bit older. She, you know, we we look out for them. We'll just take care of her thing.
Yeah. So then I'll just go to the right, out of my place. I'll do my place. And then the neighbor, the next neighbor. And sometimes they'll come out, too. But then I just go down to her house to do that. So it's it takes a little while, it's great. And then you have to dig your car out.
**Thomas** (00:19:53:09 - 00:19:53:17):
Yeah.
**Chip** (00:19:53:18 - 00:20:11:09):
So my car's across the street. Got dig that. All that takes about the good, good part of an hour? Yeah. Depending on the amount of snow. But it was feeling good about it. And then Thomas just came in and just the the chest just started getting getting to. I was like, oh, is this am I going to be that?
I'm the youngest person, maybe, who's ever going to get a heart attack from shoveling snow, like they said? And you know, I'm getting to the age now where it's like it's not out of the athlete realm of possibilities. It's it's it would be very rare, but it's still like we're teetering. So, for the rest of the day.
And then I had to go out a couple more times because it kept snowing. So I was like, you know, trying to do a little by little. And each time I came in, I was like, yeah, I think this is just muscular. But, you know, I'm I'm gonna I'm going to check the pulse a couple of times, put that little put that a little finger beeper.
Do you have the little finger beeper thing, Thomas.
**Thomas** (00:20:46:05 - 00:20:52:00):
No, I don't have the finger before I have the cuff. Do I have the full on, full on blood pressure?
**Chip** (00:20:52:02 - 00:20:52:22):
That's right.
**Thomas** (00:20:52:22 - 00:21:04:10):
The blood pressure, the, the pulse taking calf like I can get everything that a, medical assistant at an urgent care can tell you your boy can do at home.
**Chip** (00:21:04:12 - 00:21:22:12):
You are Cameron Fry. That's right. Yeah. So, yeah, I have the little. I think it's the oximeter. Maybe it's got it. It's just like it does your pulse. It does your. The oxygen level does something else that I don't understand, but, Yeah. So I then I was fine. And then, I think it was just, muscular and then just a little bit of heartburn.
**Thomas** (00:21:22:12 - 00:21:38:01):
Maybe that's a nice combo. That's a nice combo for a hypochondriac. There. And I don't know, it's the distance between realizing I just did physical activity I haven't done in a while. And something around my chest or arm hurts.
**Chip** (00:21:38:03 - 00:21:38:09):
Yep.
**Thomas** (00:21:38:14 - 00:21:59:17):
There is that space between where you're just like this is it. That's this is, that's the big one. There was, there was one time I ended up in an ER and it was I just could not explain it like I had this, this, this pain in my chest. And, after a day of, like, freaking out and then finally going to the E.R., I went there.
They're like, everything's fine. You're good. You might be insane. See you next time, Mr. O'Brien. You're right.
**Chip** (00:22:08:05 - 00:22:09:05):
You fast pass.
**Thomas** (00:22:09:05 - 00:22:22:07):
I realized that, like, in my house, we've got, like, kind of a how do I explain it? It's, it's a ladder that folds down from the attic to climb up into the attic. Sure. Yeah. And it's like a rickety.
**Chip** (00:22:22:08 - 00:22:23:19):
I've seen Christmas vacation.
**Thomas** (00:22:23:19 - 00:22:45:21):
Yes, exactly. It's a but it's like a narrow ladder. And the opening into the ceiling's not very big. You have this little, like, key that kind of turns it, you pull it down, you bring it up. And I had loaded for big, like, 50 gallon tubs, like those big Costco black with the yellow LED tubs full of winter clothes and other crap into the attic.
And the only way you can do it is you get halfway up the stairs, you prop it right here, and then you have to hoist it up and push it over. And like I was like repeatedly, I set a very heavy thing right here and then did an awkward, like, pack movement that I haven't done and then like, shuffled everything around the attic.
It was like a very heavy, very uncomfortable, very unusual movement that I did for repeatedly for like half an hour. And then within 15 minutes I completely forgot I did it and I was like, why does this feel weird? Why is my chest feel weird?
**Chip** (00:23:22:17 - 00:23:29:08):
And then you just you just did you just did three dozen attic hoists. You can't that's, that's exactly what it is.
**Thomas** (00:23:29:10 - 00:23:38:19):
Heavy heavy Adekoya and then I hadn't been doing that of course, but I know it was like. And then I thought about, I was like, exactly where that would hurt is where this hurts.
**Chip** (00:23:38:20 - 00:23:43:08):
All we have to do is just a little physical activity, and it just feels like we're crumbling on the inside.
**Thomas** (00:23:43:08 - 00:23:45:06):
And it's just it's the spiraling baby.
**Chip** (00:23:45:06 - 00:24:04:11):
Oh, and like, by the way, I think we talked about this too. But like when it comes to like physical activity or whatever, my hypochondria is about like being sick, like, you know, getting sick, you know, or whatever. Yeah. Or like internal organs, kind of that type thing. Right? My heart's going. My liver's going. Whatever. Yeah, it's I could, like, break my finger.
Yeah. And just be like, all right. And I just have a broken like. And I just go about my day for the like that doesn't that type of stuff doesn't bother me at all.
**Thomas** (00:24:12:01 - 00:24:13:19):
It's because you understand it.
**Chip** (00:24:13:21 - 00:24:23:09):
Yeah. It's like okay. And it's also not necessarily going to kill me. Like I can see it. It's like, oh yeah, I just broke a finger. I'll just wrap in some tape and somebody like, you should really go to the doctor. I'm like, I'm fine.
**Thomas** (00:24:23:09 - 00:24:23:22):
It's like you're.
**Chip** (00:24:23:22 - 00:24:30:07):
Also bleeding everywhere. It's totally cool. And I just go about my business. Yeah, but if it's like, interior.
**Thomas** (00:24:30:08 - 00:24:30:20):
**Chip** (00:24:30:21 - 00:24:31:03):
Can't.
**Thomas** (00:24:31:03 - 00:24:37:21):
Handle your fingers bleeding and you're just like. Do you think that's because I used to drink in college?
**Chip** (00:24:37:23 - 00:24:39:09):
Yeah, exactly. Yeah.
**Thomas** (00:24:39:09 - 00:24:51:17):
And then you zoom back and it's like, nope. It's because I fell off that skateboard. Yeah. Daddy can't Ollie. But he's also not going to be in that box in the ground anytime soon. Were you.
**Chip** (00:24:51:17 - 00:24:52:15):
A skateboard kid.
**Thomas** (00:24:52:15 - 00:25:13:00):
At all? I was a skateboard pretender. I was, I like, I, I got, I got a nice board. I was ready to shred and, you know, I tried it, and it was scary to me. And I could see how I could hurt myself. And I didn't have anybody to teach me either. It was kind of like me just figuring it out.
**Chip** (00:25:13:00 - 00:25:15:14):
Like you need those kids in the neighborhood that are.
**Thomas** (00:25:15:14 - 00:25:32:13):
Yeah, exactly. And we didn't have those kids in the neighborhood, and there was no YouTube to, like, teach me how to do it. I just kind of knew that, like, Tony Hawk could do a half pipe, and I've got one of these boards and I'm on a sidewalk and don't know what to do, and, when I hit that first crack, I fell off and hurt my wrist.
00:25:32:15 – 00:25:33:05 UNRESOLVED – Yeah.
**Chip** (00:25:33:07 - 00:25:33:21):
**Thomas** (00:25:34:09 - 00:25:56:17):
And I do remember I brought it to a little photo shoot. I was getting some, headshots done when I was, like probably 12 or something like that. And, and I brought a skateboard and I remember, like, being like, I'll probably just stand next to this thing, like, maybe, crank it up on the old arm there.
And the, photographer was like, oh, dude, cool. You skate like, let's take some shots with you, do something like this. And he let God on there and just started like kickflip and and zooming around. And I was just like, I, I have to come clean. I can't even ride that thing. That was like he was like, okay, well, some of the colors on the board to work with the shirt.
Let's go for it.
**Chip** (00:26:20:06 - 00:26:29:17):
Yeah, just this loser. Just take some shame shots of you. Yeah. That is one of my favorite things to watch when, like, especially like like a child or a teen actor.
**Thomas** (00:26:29:17 - 00:26:30:14):
Yeah.
**Chip** (00:26:30:16 - 00:26:39:10):
In a sitcom. And you've known that actor for, like, quite, quite a while through that TV show. Yeah. And then they have to play a sport, on camera.
**Thomas** (00:26:39:16 - 00:26:40:03):
Yeah.
**Chip** (00:26:40:03 - 00:27:00:01):
And like, I won't mention it necessarily, but there was a, he was a teen at the time. Probably. But, like, you watched him grow up on this show. And then he was like, on his, like, eighth grade soccer team. And so then there was footage of him playing soccer and, man, he could not play soccer. Yeah, like you just try to cut around him, sort of, you know.
Oh, yeah. Oh but man it's I was like, wow, you've been acting since the age of four.
**Thomas** (00:27:05:22 - 00:27:06:15):
Yeah.
**Chip** (00:27:06:17 - 00:27:08:10):
You haven't been on any travel teams.
**Thomas** (00:27:08:10 - 00:27:08:19):
No.
**Chip** (00:27:08:22 - 00:27:10:11):
There's anything wrong with that. But yeah.
**Thomas** (00:27:10:12 - 00:27:12:18):
No, no real boy skills.
**Chip** (00:27:12:20 - 00:27:14:00):
Yeah.
**Thomas** (00:27:14:02 - 00:27:24:16):
Yeah, I, I, I pick up on that pretty well at basketball. Like, you can just tell like they get the classic like and just like dribble it twice. Go from here to there and you're like, this kid's never touched the ball in his life.
**Chip** (00:27:24:18 - 00:27:31:11):
No, no, not at all. Woo! But I, by the way, I'm feeling great today. No chest pains. I'm alive.
**Thomas** (00:27:31:13 - 00:27:57:23):
Beautiful and. Well, we're we're here bright and early. Make it rain. We got our slather going. We're in a tropical state of mind. We, we've appeased the algorithm. Dude, we're on fire. And now we're stepping out a hypochondriac corner. Everybody, it is time for the fish of the week. Fish of the week. Every week we single out one saltwater superstar to be our sunburnt fish of the week.
Our hero of the deep, the fish of the week. I am just itching and twitching to find out who's our fish of the week.
**Chip** (00:28:05:19 - 00:28:11:12):
This is a big one. I'm very excited about this guy. This guy is Rick, the long nose hawk fish.
**Thomas** (00:28:11:12 - 00:28:13:12):
Oh come on Rick.
**Chip** (00:28:13:14 - 00:28:19:05):
Take a look at him. Just beautiful and nerdy, and I just. I just love him.
**Thomas** (00:28:19:05 - 00:28:20:18):
He's a high fashion fish.
**Chip** (00:28:20:19 - 00:28:22:18):
He is a high fashion fish. Look at that.
**Thomas** (00:28:22:18 - 00:28:23:11):
Print, baby.
**Chip** (00:28:23:11 - 00:28:44:07):
Ricky, he's only going to grow to be about five inches long. Wow. The long nose hawk fish. They do have those giant snouts. And just look at that sweet, sweet bob, though, Thomas. I mean, just look at it. He's kind of the whitish base. Yeah, with the red horizontal and vertical stripes. How many fish do you know that are plaid, Thomas?
**Thomas** (00:28:44:07 - 00:28:45:19):
I don't know any.
**Chip** (00:28:45:20 - 00:28:48:06):
He looks good in plaid. Just that checkered.
**Thomas** (00:28:48:06 - 00:28:52:18):
Color. He does. He's just got that 90s alt rocker look.
**Chip** (00:28:52:18 - 00:28:57:07):
Yeah, a little flannel with with a little like dad energy going on there. You know, Kurt.
**Thomas** (00:28:57:07 - 00:29:01:11):
Cobain and Rick hanging out at the Viper Club in 92.
**Chip** (00:29:01:15 - 00:29:17:01):
Man, could you imagine? Just come on. Just being under the bridge there in Aberdeen. I mean, wow, so long. Those hogfish like Rick are they're generally monogamous pairs. So like they find a mrs..
**Thomas** (00:29:17:01 - 00:29:17:20):
Yeah.
**Chip** (00:29:17:22 - 00:29:26:21):
They attract him with that beautiful, beautiful plaid, And they, they generally stay together for life. That's good. That's kind of a thing which, you know, happens with some fish.
**Thomas** (00:29:27:00 - 00:29:27:08):
Yeah.
**Chip** (00:29:27:14 - 00:29:32:02):
But they are, I believe, pelagic spawners.
**Thomas** (00:29:32:02 - 00:29:32:23):
What's that mean?
**Chip** (00:29:33:02 - 00:29:46:13):
That means Rick's wife. They do the deed, and then she just sort of, like, openly spreads her eggs, like thousands of them. Maybe millions of them over the years. Yeah. Just shoots out eggs all over the ocean. It just, like, lets them go.
**Thomas** (00:29:46:13 - 00:29:47:17):
Decorate in the neighborhood.
**Chip** (00:29:47:17 - 00:30:00:18):
It's a high mortality rate, but it's like it's a high hit rate. You know, she's just letting those eggs go, and then they go, you know. So, that's why that's why Rick only has 15,000 kids that he knows of.
**Thomas** (00:30:00:20 - 00:30:03:07):
Come on, Rick, you dog, you dog.
**Chip** (00:30:03:07 - 00:30:17:16):
Rick, when Rick is not just doing the suburban thing, just sort of like mowing the lawn, trimming the hedges in his plaid shirt. You can find Rick at the Indian and Pacific Ocean. Ooh. From, from the Red sea all the way to the Galapagos.
**Thomas** (00:30:17:17 - 00:30:19:12):
Wow, that's a lot of area, dude.
**Chip** (00:30:19:12 - 00:30:42:02):
He also likes. He's a chill guy, though. Like I said, he kind of is the suburban dad. Like, he, you know, he's, he likes to chill out and tend to 100m deep. Whoa. That's pretty deep for, Yeah, for just a little checkered fish like that. So, he likes perched on the deep coral. He's pretty docile, but he is territorial a little bit sometimes.
Not too.
**Thomas** (00:30:42:09 - 00:30:43:15):
Much. Don't you mess with Rick.
**Chip** (00:30:43:15 - 00:30:51:14):
Sounds so. He wears plaid. He's got a wife. He lives in the coral suburbs. But you know what? Stay off Rick's lawn.
**Thomas** (00:30:51:16 - 00:30:55:12):
Oh, man. Rick can turn into a Karen real quick, real quickly.
**Chip** (00:30:55:12 - 00:31:00:15):
And, that is your fish of the week. Oh, Rick the long nose hawk fish.
**Thomas** (00:31:00:17 - 00:31:17:02):
Damn it, Rick, you beautiful son of a gun. Oh, Rick. Congratulations on being this week's fish of the way issue of the week. Our hero of the jeep. God, I'm so fascinated about Rick. I just want to know what he's doing right now.
**Chip** (00:31:17:04 - 00:31:24:00):
I know he's probably, in the Galapagos right now. Yeah, perching on some coral, just kind of chilling out.
**Thomas** (00:31:24:00 - 00:31:28:17):
And he stands deep. He's not. He's not getting pounded by the sun.
**Chip** (00:31:28:17 - 00:31:30:01):
He's reading some Nietzsche.
**Thomas** (00:31:30:02 - 00:31:36:05):
Oh, yeah. Yeah. There's nothing surface level. No popcorn filler for Rick. That's a deep son of a gun.
**Chip** (00:31:36:07 - 00:31:36:13):
Yep.
**Thomas** (00:31:36:14 - 00:31:38:18):
Oh, what a what a star dude.
**Chip** (00:31:38:18 - 00:31:39:21):
Superstar and Platt.
**Thomas** (00:31:40:00 - 00:31:51:17):
Well, fish of the week is over, chip. You know what that means? It means it is time for us to crack open the good book. The good book. It is time for world records, baby.
**Chip** (00:31:51:17 - 00:31:54:17):
Thomas, what is your world record this week? Chip?
**Thomas** (00:31:54:18 - 00:32:06:19):
You're going to have to make a decision now, man. What's your preference? Shredded pork or when pork shreds baby? Because this week I found the fastest pig on a skateboard.
**Chip** (00:32:06:21 - 00:32:14:18):
What? Speaking of skateboards, speaking of pigs on skate, I want to see a pork shred.
**Thomas** (00:32:14:18 - 00:32:38:17):
So bad. Human skateboarding. I don't give a crap dog skateboarding. If you go to a park and play with your fleas, you want to work here? Show me a 175 pound pig named Norbit bombing a hill on a board chip, how fast do you think the fastest hog on a skateboard went?
**Chip** (00:32:38:19 - 00:32:40:16):
I'm going to say seven miles an hour.
**Thomas** (00:32:40:21 - 00:32:55:01):
I think that's a very good gas chip. Let me give you a little rundown. Norbert completed a ten meter trip in 11.32 seconds. Do you care to change your miles per hour?
**Chip** (00:32:55:01 - 00:33:01:02):
Guess I have. I can't do any of the math on that. Okay? I'm not doing the taxes on that one.
**Thomas** (00:33:01:04 - 00:33:24:05):
Okay, that makes sense. Well, it's a blistering nearly two miles per hour chip. Can you imagine that Norbert just flying down on the board? And then here's a little bit rundown. This is featured in the brand new 2026 edition chip. This is actual verified straight from the Good Book.
**Chip** (00:33:24:07 - 00:33:26:22):
New edition.
**Thomas** (00:33:27:00 - 00:33:42:09):
Norbert had a solid technique. He used his back feet to push while keeping his hand. Hooves on the board. Had hooves in the northeast skating culture, this is called skating chantry style.
**Chip** (00:33:42:11 - 00:33:43:05):
That sounds about right.
**Thomas** (00:33:43:08 - 00:33:59:16):
He was drawn past the finish line by a big, juicy banana covered in peanut butter. Chip baited him right to that little tree. Hasn't been in the northeast. Eating a banana like that is called eating it Chantry style.
**Chip** (00:33:59:18 - 00:34:00:16):
Yes it is.
**Thomas** (00:34:00:16 - 00:34:12:23):
Norbert has a classic pink skin, plump body look in the northeast that is known as being, healthy, happy little piggy.
**Chip** (00:34:13:01 - 00:34:13:15):
That sounds great.
**Thomas** (00:34:13:15 - 00:34:26:04):
So here we go. This is to Norbert. May, we get to share a sunset? My tie on a tropical beach someday. But don't drink it too fast. Speed demon. That my ties are strong.
**Chip** (00:34:26:06 - 00:34:30:23):
Norbert, get out there and do some sausage rolls. Proud of you, bud.
**Thomas** (00:34:31:01 - 00:34:32:00):
Dude. Norbert. I mean.
**Chip** (00:34:32:01 - 00:34:33:12):
A bake, a bacon fakey.
**Thomas** (00:34:33:12 - 00:34:43:00):
A bacon fat. I mean, first we have Rick, who's just heating the ocean. He might be the cause of global warming. That's a hot fish, baby.
**Chip** (00:34:43:02 - 00:34:43:08):
It is.
**Thomas** (00:34:43:09 - 00:35:02:15):
And then we go to Norbert, who's just shredding on his board. Unbelievable, man. A Chicago native to, I believe the Windy City, just continues to give to the world in terms of world records. But, Chip, this is, I'd be remiss if I didn't ask you. What is your world record this week, buddy?
**Chip** (00:35:02:18 - 00:35:09:04):
Well, Thomas, the good book. Dropped a new record just last week.
**Thomas** (00:35:09:04 - 00:35:10:06):
A breaking record.
**Chip** (00:35:10:06 - 00:35:26:08):
A breaking record. Hot off the presses and cool in your belly. Ooh, congrats to the Regal Princess cruise ship for setting the record for the most margaritas sold in eight hours.
**Thomas** (00:35:26:08 - 00:35:31:15):
Get out of here. That's a full shift, baby. That's awful shit. The most margaritas and eight hours ever, I think.
**Chip** (00:35:31:15 - 00:35:37:16):
Anywhere. Not even just on a cruise ship. Just the most amount of margs sold in an eight hour span.
**Thomas** (00:35:37:16 - 00:35:39:05):
Do you think they were salting the rims?
**Chip** (00:35:39:06 - 00:35:45:08):
Yeah, they were selling a lot of stuff. I can't tell you that. Come on. So apparently Princess cruise ships.
**Thomas** (00:35:45:08 - 00:35:46:03):
Yeah.
**Chip** (00:35:46:05 - 00:36:10:15):
The company has, they were they hit a milestone of selling 1 million of their signature 24 karat gold margaritas. What, as they call them. Okay, now to celebrate, on February 17th, just last Tuesday. So this isn't even printed in the good book. This came via the interwebs. This is hot, hot news.
**Thomas** (00:36:10:15 - 00:36:13:11):
A million margaritas in eight hours.
**Chip** (00:36:13:13 - 00:36:31:11):
Well, no no no no no no no no no. That's on one ship. That's like of all time. They're their signature. So they have this signature they call the 24, karat gold margarita. Yeah, there's like Cointreau. I think there's some grandma money and Grant wood. Grandma? Yeah. Grand mariner, the grand mariner.
**Thomas** (00:36:31:13 - 00:36:32:00):
That's that's.
**Chip** (00:36:32:05 - 00:36:44:01):
And its big ingredient. Yeah. Is it's the 24 karat gold margarita on the princess cruise lines is generally made with petulance. Organic tequila.
**Thomas** (00:36:44:02 - 00:36:46:22):
Ooh, I like organic.
**Chip** (00:36:47:00 - 00:36:51:23):
Do you know who, who is co-founder of Pantalones organic tequila?
**Thomas** (00:36:51:23 - 00:36:53:19):
I'm not going to lie. I have zero clue, chip.
**Chip** (00:36:53:19 - 00:36:57:01):
That's all right. All right, all right.
**Thomas** (00:36:57:01 - 00:36:59:09):
Oh, get out of here. Matthew McConaughey.
**Chip** (00:36:59:11 - 00:37:06:13):
Matthew McConaughey and his wife, Camilla. Oh, yeah. They are they are co-founders. So congrats to them. This is.
**Thomas** (00:37:06:13 - 00:37:12:11):
So wild. I've been talking about McConaughey and Princess Cruises collab, and for a long time.
**Chip** (00:37:12:13 - 00:37:14:06):
You've been talking about since episode one.
**Thomas** (00:37:14:06 - 00:37:17:22):
I've been clamoring for it. I've been banging my skateboard on the side of the pool.
**Chip** (00:37:17:22 - 00:37:33:05):
Bang bang bang babies. Yeah, well, he's a step ahead of you. So to celebrate last week to celebrate their millionth sold. Yeah. This ship, this one specific ship, I served 3410 marks in eight hours.
**Thomas** (00:37:33:07 - 00:37:34:00):
Oh, my God.
**Chip** (00:37:34:01 - 00:37:40:18):
While they were docked off of Cosmo Mexico. Yeah, they just think. All right, we're docking and everybody's getting loaded up.
**Thomas** (00:37:40:18 - 00:37:41:10):
That's the place to.
**Chip** (00:37:41:10 - 00:37:56:16):
Do it with. In an eight hour period, they served 3410 margaritas. I mean, that is a feat. So congratulations to Princess Cruise Lines and apparently to Thomas's aunt Barb, who is apparently on vacation in Cozumel right now.
**Thomas** (00:37:56:16 - 00:37:59:15):
I've been getting some drunk texts from Barb. DOH!
**Chip** (00:37:59:16 - 00:38:12:02):
Yeah, and I will say this I know there has been some unrest in Mexico, lately. Yeah, I'm pretty sure a cruise ship that just served 3400 margs in eight hours had something to do with it.
**Thomas** (00:38:12:02 - 00:38:26:18):
Yeah, I haven't been following the news. I have heard there's some unrest. And, my hope for the world is that it was something as, fun as people getting a little rowdy after having 1 to 3000 plus margaritas serving.
**Chip** (00:38:26:20 - 00:38:36:21):
Oh, over 3400 margaritas on one cruise ship in eight hours so they can just salt the rim of the ship at that point. But people go hog wild. I mean, that's all it is. I mean, do we.
**Thomas** (00:38:36:21 - 00:38:41:16):
Know how many people were, consuming? Do we have any of those kind of numbers?
**Chip** (00:38:41:17 - 00:38:46:08):
Besides your aunt Barb? No. So I don't know the exact numbers on that. I just know that right.
**Thomas** (00:38:46:08 - 00:38:49:03):
Now it's just one, maybe one, maybe more than one.
**Chip** (00:38:49:05 - 00:38:53:15):
What? Isaac and the rest of the bartenders served 3400.
**Thomas** (00:38:53:17 - 00:38:55:19):
You're going to need a real nice blender for that chip.
**Chip** (00:38:55:19 - 00:38:57:10):
Yeah, you're going to need a bigger boat. It's what?
00:38:57:11 – 00:38:59:10 UNRESOLVED – Say.
By the way, f as the, 3410 marks were sold. Yeah, there's eight hours. That ship also set another record. What, for the most amount of 50 year old ladies demanding to speak to the captain?
**Thomas** (00:39:15:04 - 00:39:28:14):
Yeah. So some of those were probably pleasant demands. Some of those were probably unpleasant demands. I'm very, 5050, because when you get that tequila going, you go one of two ways. It's like I'm everybody's best friend, or I'm going to punch you.
00:39:28:15 – 00:39:29:09 UNRESOLVED – There's a little.
**Chip** (00:39:29:09 - 00:39:48:16):
Rascal. I will say, I know we have talked a bit, I have, I have certain drinks that are my favorite drinks. Yeah. I'm a pretty, basic guy, I think seven and seven. Because I'm an old man in a bar. Yeah, seven and seven, a little whiskey. That's a secret love head. Yes, I do love me some some tequila.
I, I will say, I mean, come on, big. Might I convert as of as of more recently. Like, just love the my tie. Yeah. I I'm from my money. There's no better. There's no better drunk than a mark drunk.
**Thomas** (00:40:04:17 - 00:40:06:18):
It's pretty good chat.
**Chip** (00:40:06:20 - 00:40:13:03):
There's something about it that's a little salty. Yeah, a little bit. And I don't usually get salt on the rim, I generally don't, I don't either.
**Thomas** (00:40:13:03 - 00:40:17:15):
I think we are, we're a bear rim twins, baby.
**Chip** (00:40:17:17 - 00:40:22:22):
We're bear rim twins. And here's the thing. We're we're basic. Here's the thing about a mark.
**Thomas** (00:40:23:00 - 00:40:23:20):
Yeah.
**Chip** (00:40:23:22 - 00:40:42:04):
A mark can't be too sweet. Sometimes people like this, they like sweet. It's. You got to stay basic. Yeah. And you can have all these different flavors of Mark's. You have the 24 karat gold one with the gold. How are you all that stuff? But, like, you can have, you know, passionfruit margaritas, strawberry margaritas, do all this, whatever.
I just like your basic mark. Or maybe a macho mark. You know, the one that that throws a little zip in it. Maybe a little pepper, a little little heat. Yeah. Like that. But it's got to be. It can't be too sweet. And then you could drink a whole lot of it. Yeah. And then you're just you're just feeling.
You're just feeling fine.
**Thomas** (00:41:01:19 - 00:41:12:14):
Especially on a princess cruise type environment. If you can pass them out where it's like they're coming. I like a blended mark. I'll take a blended mark pretty much any day of the week. It's a slow sip.
**Chip** (00:41:12:16 - 00:41:16:11):
Okay. See, I will say this. This is where we differ. I'm a I'm an on the rocks guy.
**Thomas** (00:41:16:13 - 00:41:18:11):
I mean, like an all right, I'll take it on the rocks.
**Chip** (00:41:18:15 - 00:41:22:04):
I mean, I mean, there's nothing wrong with the blended. I'll take a blended. You hand me a blended. I'm going to drink it.
**Thomas** (00:41:22:08 - 00:41:40:21):
Yeah, no, I gotcha I think I think just for what I'm the experience I'm talking about is like, you're at a resort, you're on a cruise, you've committed to having, a couple of beverages throughout the day. I just find the blended one helps me moderate speed. It goes. Yeah, that's a little more reasonable.
**Chip** (00:41:40:21 - 00:41:42:11):
Don't you get that brain freeze?
**Thomas** (00:41:42:13 - 00:41:46:17):
Oh, you can definitely get the brain freeze, but that's your body's saying, like, slow down on the mark.
**Chip** (00:41:46:17 - 00:41:47:04):
Slow down.
**Thomas** (00:41:47:04 - 00:41:56:16):
Baby. You're trying to have a whole afternoon. You you don't want to be stumbling around the pool deck or bumping into people. No, it's my little built in moderation secret, and I love it very much.
**Chip** (00:41:56:16 - 00:42:21:13):
That does make me nervous that we've talked about this before, but just the idea of a cruise ship, we're they're it's they're setting a world record and getting people drown. I mean, that's the bottom line. You're just stuck on that cruise ship with hundreds, if not thousands of people who are drunk on marks. Like, is that is that a place you want to be, like when we're in Hawaii?
Yeah. If stuff got a little too real, Thomas, we could walk out on the beach, take a hike, we could walk down the block. We could go to a different neighborhood. Yeah. Head up to Diamondhead. You can't head to Diamond Head when you're on a on a cruise ship.
**Thomas** (00:42:33:16 - 00:42:37:08):
I think the internet amplifies things, right? So wait wait.
**Chip** (00:42:37:08 - 00:42:41:22):
Wait wait wait wait. Whoa whoa whoa. What? You're saying is that the internet isn't totally real, is what you're saying.
**Thomas** (00:42:41:22 - 00:42:51:01):
I think the internet is, designed to create a bias of reality. All right. In terms of algorithm driven videos, because.
**Chip** (00:42:51:03 - 00:42:54:09):
The the the algorithm is going to get you is what you're saying.
**Thomas** (00:42:54:11 - 00:42:59:18):
To, to borrow a term for from Letterkenny bad gas travels fast.
**Chip** (00:42:59:20 - 00:43:01:04):
Travels fast. Yeah.
**Thomas** (00:43:01:04 - 00:43:22:17):
For every video I've seen of somebody having an amazing cruise or trip on a boat, I've seen 1 to 2 videos of a horrific fight breaking out on the dance floor and, also, for every documentary that's been made about cruise ships, 100% of them are horrifying.
**Chip** (00:43:22:19 - 00:43:26:06):
Yeah, nobody makes a documentary about a great time on a cruise ship.
**Thomas** (00:43:26:06 - 00:43:36:11):
No, that's called a vacation film. And you're not even allowed to show those to good friends because they don't care. It's that for me. Yep. You know me. I'm a sucker. I am not the average person.
**Chip** (00:43:36:15 - 00:43:37:10):
Those.
**Thomas** (00:43:37:12 - 00:43:54:10):
I will talk to anybody about their vacation and I will look at all your pictures. That is a good time for me to bring it on. Maybe you want to. You want to share your vacation with somebody? Have you documented it and want to talk through the whole trip? Let's go. We'll book an hour, call the number.
**Chip** (00:43:54:10 - 00:43:55:05):
Give them the number.
**Thomas** (00:43:55:05 - 00:44:13:15):
Thomas, (310) 845-6038. You can tell us your worst vacation story, if we use it on the podcast in our Trouble in Paradise segment, we'll send you a bottle of Hawaiian Tropic. If,
**Chip** (00:44:13:17 - 00:44:14:02):
And if you.
**Thomas** (00:44:14:02 - 00:44:25:20):
Just want to talk to me about your vacation specifically, we can set up a zoom. You can walk me through your photos, and I'll, I'll be as happy as Norbert with a big old, banana chantry style, you know what I mean?
**Chip** (00:44:25:21 - 00:44:29:17):
Maybe that's the Patreon that we do.
00:44:29:19 – 00:44:30:11 UNRESOLVED – Yeah.
For, like, five bucks a month, they get a little extra content, and then whenever they go on vacation, they have a zoom with us where they get to go through the slideshow of all of their photos.
**Thomas** (00:44:39:13 - 00:44:57:06):
I would do it in a heartbeat. Yeah, well, Chip, dude, we work through it all, man. I had an amazing time. We talked about Rick. We talked about Norbert. We talked about masks. We talked about, touchless ID, we talked about hobbies.
**Chip** (00:44:57:07 - 00:44:59:17):
Your, illustrious skateboarding career.
**Thomas** (00:44:59:20 - 00:45:23:19):
My skateboarding career. We talked about my aunt Barb getting friggin ripped in Mexico. Dude, I had a great little tropical trip with you, buddy. This was amazing. I know you're under snow. I know the world can be a little cloudy at times, but here on the sunburn podcast, it's always sunshine. And my ties. This is the sunburn podcast.
We talk about comedy and tropical travel.
**Chip** (00:45:26:11 - 00:45:30:00):
Make my ties, our ties.
00:45:30:02 – 00:45:31:17 UNRESOLVED –
**Thomas** (00:45:31:19 - 00:45:35:13):
Until next time, stay burnt. Front desk.
**Chip** (00:45:35:13 - 00:45:39:23):
Hi, this is Mr. Chantry in room 308. Could you set up a dozen steamers?
**Thomas** (00:45:40:00 - 00:45:43:23):
A dozen steamers, Mr. Chantry, how much laundry are you doing?
**Chip** (00:45:44:01 - 00:45:50:17):
Oh, no, I'm shooting my America's Got Talent submission video. And one of the goats bit through the wire on the smoke machine.
**Thomas** (00:45:50:19 - 00:45:52:08):
Sending them right up.
**Chip** (00:45:52:10 - 00:45:53:00):
Okie dokie.
