(upbeat music) - Beam me up, Babaloo. It's time for another episode of Pod Is My Co-Pilot with Taylor the Latte Boy. Taffy Carlisle Huffington and Rodan. Take it away, kids. - Hi, this is Taylor the Latte Boy and welcome to episode 88 of Pod Is My Co-Pilot. We're back, bitches. - Woo-hoo. - I said we were you waiting for a-- - Hey. - Hey. - I am your, the first of three co-host, Taylor the Latte Boy and I am joined as always by Taffy Carlisle Huffington and Rodan. - You have to put yourself as first, huh? - Huh? - I almost said I am joined you are tonight. I am your host and thought that would not go over while since that's why I changed it mid sentence. I am one of three co-hosts. - I am the first. Well, I'm just busting your ball. - I know. Speaking of which, I'm having an issue with my right ball. (laughing) - Really? - We're going head first. (laughing) - Is this another bloody stick story? - No, this is not, this is not bloody, but apparently I jumped in my car a little too fast the other day and I guess like landed on my ball. - Oh. - And every once in a while. - It gets a little sore. Like all of a sudden I'm like, oh God, oh God. I was driving to public today and was beat to sweat running down my forehead. It was horrible. - Yes, I have a sexual issue to discuss with you as well, but I'm actually going to do it not on the podcast. (laughing) - Well, it's not a sexual issue. It's a biological one. It's not gross. It's just, I have a, it's just, every once in a while it has a dull ache. - So you had your own self-cockball torture? - Yes, I'm involved in my own CVT. (laughing) - Don't they have special devices made for that? - I'm sure, but apparently I'm so good that I can do it by myself and don't necessarily need anybody assisting me. - Apparently Drum Rollie was not the only one with low hangers. - Jesus. - I wouldn't say his were low hanging. We just said they were big. - Oh, good point. That's a good point. - Yeah, he had a couple of papayas held close. (laughing) Close to that. - Oh, look, it has a mango. (laughing) It's never too early for designing women reference. Come on. - There you go. - That may be the title, the first title episode 88. Why look, it has a mango. - Look, it has mango. - Yeah, you're-- - So within the first two minutes we've talked about mine and Drum Rollie Kahoos balls. - Wow. - Yay. - Rodan, how are yours? - They're good. (beeping) - Has big low hanging balls too. - Who does? - Excellent. - God damn it. (laughing) - What? (laughing) - Lucky has big low hanging balls too. - He's a little rusty. - Remember less editing for me this year. That was the plan. (laughing) - What part of the plan did you not understand, Rodan? (laughing) - Placid. - Placid. (laughing) What movie's that from? Taffy, what movie's that from? - That's what I say, I know. (laughing) - I wanna say clue and I know that's not right. - No, same vein, but not the right movie. - Oh, no, no, no, no. I know what it is. Meryl Streep says it. Damn it, what is the name of that? Oh, don't say it 'cause I know it. Meryl Streep, Goldie Hahn, Bruce Willis. Death becomes her. Is that right? - Yup. - No, not, I'm just sitting here replaying that scene where she goes, does Placid, yes. That's a great movie. - Would you like to talk about anything today? I'd like to talk about-- - Wait for it? - Math. (screaming) (laughing) - There are several members of my extended family that she reminds me of in that scene with the frosting. Yeah. (laughing) - Oh, wow, I know exactly what you're talking about. - Thank you, yes. - Yeah, that's one of those early '90s gems that kind of gets forgotten about with the exception of the gay community. Much like one of my all-time favorite movie soap dish. - Yes. - Because it's so warming. We must say that at least once a week. I don't know why, but we can do it. - I do too, I do too, and people look at me like, what? - And you. - And you, it wasn't my idea, it was all his. And you! (laughing) - Oh, I would say they say break fluid. - Break, break, break, break, break, break. - Break fever? - Break fever? (laughing) - For those of you who haven't watched soap dish, you really are missing out. It's one of those, and it really is a horrible movie. - It is, it is. - So ridiculously fun, Milton Morehead from Siaaset, Long Island. - Hello. (laughing) - All right, well enough about early '90s Meryl Streep films. (laughing) - Since we've recorded, we've all three been together. - Yeah. - Yes. - And did nothing like a video podcast already where we're all in the same room. Once again, second year in a row, we've done that. - Yeah, and it was hard as hell to even get a picture of the three of us. - Yeah, we just have the one. - Because Bob Blue stole your camera. - Yeah. (laughing) - Well, he is Cuban. (laughing) I'm lucky it wasn't my hubcaps, I'm gonna tell you this. (laughing) - Oh, wow. Yeah, thank you for that. Now I'm gonna be able to hear about that for 20 minutes after he listens to the podcast. - Oh, please, you're the one that taught me all that. (laughing) - And I'm the one who actually said that to him. 'Cause he accidentally, all of a sudden we realized that we had Taffy, we took a picture of the three of us with Taffy's camera and then Rodan and Bob Blue and I all got in the car and all of a sudden we realized we had Taffy's camera and he swore he didn't take it. And we said, well, it's no big deal if you accidentally had it. We just have to get it back to it. He's like, no, I swear I didn't take it. To which I said, well, of course we're gonna say it was you, you're Cuban. (laughing) Which I thought was funny and Rodan thought was funny. Bob Blue failed to find the humor in that. - Well, I can't imagine why. - He actually, he did laugh. But then he kept saying, I really didn't take it. I'm like, it's really not that big a deal. (laughing) - But we really know you did. But it's okay, okay. (laughing) - But we had, we had a wonderful, I had a wonderful holiday. I don't know about everybody else. - It was, but it's a fun. - It was very relaxing. I definitely needed the relaxingness. - The relaxingness. - Right, grammar God. (laughing) - I could talk. - I'm going to make up new words. (laughing) (laughing) - No, it was, I loved being able to see you guys again. So every time I get down to, anytime I can't get down to Florida is a nice treat. - And so was the 90 degree weather on Christmas Day. - Oh. - Thank you. - I still can't quite get used to the weather here back in Louisiana now. After being in Florida for a week. Because it's 30 degrees one day, 70 degrees the next, 30 degrees one day, 70 degrees the next. - It's the only thing that not everybody there has pneumonia. - Oh. - That would suck, I must say. Even though the consistent heat is ridiculous, but I'm, you, it's ridiculous when, you know, people listen to us and hear it complain, but you don't understand that it's the first week of, you know, first second week in January and the high today was 75. - Yeah. - Yeah, it's, it's, it really is hard to kind of wrap your brain around that. But on a daily basis, it does get a little old. - Especially when you consider that usually we don't get our, what you would call cold weather until January or February. And we had a, we had a area in like late October, early November where we were getting days in like the low to mid 50s. - Yeah. - And it was sweater and jacket weather. And you were like, oh my God, this is gonna be it. It must be El Nino. And, you know, I thought this is gonna be it. You know, we're gonna have sweaters for Christmas and I was opening presents and shorts and a t-shirt. - Isn't that one of like Jennifer Lopez's twins? - El Nino. - Something stupid like that, I don't know. - I don't know why I thought that, I don't know why. I think that really is one of the names because I'm thinking equally as stupid. I don't know what it is. - Is that the segue into us talking more about pop culture stuff? - I know, I know, I have no idea. I have no idea. - Oh, one of the, one of the big events that we should have pod, video taped was us playing guitar hero. Oh my gosh. Cause it was nothing but me like hitting the wrong thing on the drums for like an hour. - Bro Dan, I have video of Bobaloo, Tank, Taylor, Michael and Kevin from New Cast. - Oh yeah, that's what you guys are gonna do that. - Yes. - Yeah, I brought the guitar hero up and it was, it was a lot of fun. - And I took a picture that should be the cover art for their future CD release. That should actually be posted because the picture is ridiculous. - Yeah, we were all a little crazy. So, and how great was the meal that Kevin prepared? - Jesus, he made braised short ribs. - Oh. - I'm not above blowing him because of that. (laughing) - Of course the brownies were, the brownies are now legend in our house. I mean, there's actually been a battle over the last three or four. And the braised short ribs, they were ridiculous. I mean, they were ridiculous. And then he made his own blue cheese, like crustini, little crutani crackers. Jesus, it was ridiculous. - The episode that he got that from was just on this morning. They had a barefoot contestant marathon and I was like, "Oh, those are the crackers that Kevin made." - Oh, I thought he got him from his Aunt Ina or something. - No, Ina Garten is the barefoot contestant you'd win. (laughing) - I thought they were from his Aunt Ina. - No, he said they're from Aunt Ina and the gays in the room all knew what he meant. (laughing) - Don't know. - You turn in your honorary bag-head card by the end of business tomorrow. - I'm telling you, I'm sorry, Kevin. I'll try another. I'll try another. - Speaking of the barefoot contestant, I made a roast chicken that was a barefoot contestant recipe today, which is possibly one of the easiest things that you can possibly make, apparently. - How did it turn out though? - It turned out amazing. - Did you get a new chicken? - It was absolutely amazing. - Yes, yes, I opened up the chicken that I had apparently bought earlier in the week and it cinged the nostrils. - Yeah, we do it there. - Oh. - Yeah, so I called Taffy and said, "This is what's going on." And she's like, "You need to get that chicken "at your house immediately." She goes, "There's something wrong with it." So I went to Publix and bought a new one and I threw in the, I fisted that turkey with that chicken with more lemons and garlic than I knew what to do with it. - But lemons and garlic are the answer. - That it was awesome and then you've melt a little butter and you put that on top and then you salt and pepper it and you throw it in for an hour and a half and it was great. And there's pictures of them on the blog. I made pumpkin chocolate chip muffins tonight. - Mm, that sounds good. - And it is literally the easiest thing I've ever made in my entire life. It is a box of spice mix, a can of pumpkin and chocolate chips. - Yeah. - That's it. You mix it all together, put it in muffin tin, throw it in the oven for 20 minutes. - Is there no eggs or anything? - No, no, because the pumpkin, apparently, is what makes, it's the binding agent and it's all the wet ingredients and everything and they are really good. Between killing zombies, Bob gave me the thumbs up. - Yeah. - And that's not a euphemism. Now, next time you double fist bobble-loo, you can do it with garlic and lemon. - Oh. - There you go. There you go. And he'll smell so much better. - That's right. (laughing) - Yeah, he is playing this game Dead Space, which is pretty much where you're on a spaceship and you're shooting zombies and you have to cut off their arms and legs 'cause they come back to life if you don't. - Tank is playing Eve and he's on a spaceship too. I don't think he's killing zombies or anything, but he's on a spaceship. - Yeah, this game, the game is beautiful. I will say this, I saw a message from Bjorn on our Facebook page saying he wants the game at a PS3. It's totally worth the PS3 'cause the graphics in are beautiful, but that's the bad part of a game like this. The graphics are so detailed that you can make out the pulsing- - Perfect. - Vains in their heads and all that sort of stuff. Oh my God, last night I was standing. I was standing, 'cause it's always one of these where, he knows I don't like watching it because then I wake up the middle night screaming and a cold sweat and punch him in the face and he doesn't even care for that. But it's one of these where he's like, "Oh my God, you have to see this." And I come out and I watch it for a few seconds. And I go, "Oh, okay, that's great." But before something jumps out, I'm going to leave. Well, I'm standing there watching him last night and it's something where all of these aliens are kind of on this other ledge on the other side of this big tube thing that he's shooting at them. Well, one of them drops down from the ceiling and lands on the edge of where this guy is standing. I literally threw my hands up at the air, went, "Oh my God, it's written and ran into the office." - Aw. - Like the big bottom girl that I am. - That's gonna say, that's a charming story. - Yeah. - Well, is it, I mean, 'cause watching you guys play, or watching him play that game when I was there, I was like, "I was getting vertigo, just watching it." - He seems to have, well, obviously, he's figured out the controls. I mean, he plays it every night for a couple of hours and I'm, and I'm playing Animal Crossing every night. So while he's shooting zombies, I'm fishing and, you know, shaking trees to get pears and, you know, catching different butterflies and all that sort of stuff on the way. So, which is a lot of fun, and I have a Wii Speak and one of our listeners has sent me her Wii number, her Animal Crossing number, and I have her programmed in, Jenna, one of our listeners, and I am always accepting more Animal Crossing numbers, because I would love to actually travel to other people's little lands and chick-change fruit and all that sort of stuff. Taffy has no idea what I'm talking about. - That just sounded dirty. - It did sound dirty. - I wanna exchange fruit with all of our listeners. - I could eat a peach for day. - I could eat a peach for hours. - Hours, I don't know, I've never seen the-- - Thank you, Nicholas Cage, that's a great movie. Actually, it's a horrible movie, it just has actually really good acting, but it is a horrible movie. Nothing else exciting going on. Actually, there is something exciting, you have to take me shopping. - Well, who, I do? - Yes, because you owe me. - Oh, well. - Okay. - I believe you owe me not one, not two, but 13, Lennon napkins. - Oh! (laughing) - Okay. - Okay, can I tell the story? - Oh yes, please, since we were talking about Christmas break, I will just segue with that story because you are gonna buy me my 13 wedding gift. - I know, and you know what, that you are absolutely right. Okay, okay, I need to start off the story by saying that Babaloo came in this house with many wonderful things. - Is that what we're calling your ass out? - No, and he has a few prized possessions, one of which is a Santa hat that he got working at Starbucks from a couple of years ago when he worked at Starbucks, 'cause of course, obviously he's a huge Starbucks fan and all that, and it's a green, like a Santa hat, but it's green instead of red, and there's an embroidered Starbucks logo on the front of it. So he goes to see his family for Christmas Eve and then he's coming home Christmas day. - No wait, you also have to tell him that I have been forbidden to touch it. - Yes, yes, and it's one of these where he knows that if Taffy comes in the house, she's going to, you know, and she knows how much he cares about this, she's going to take it and then, you know, take pictures of herself with it and send it to him an email like his rants of notes as a joke, all that sort of thing. So he's constantly saying, you know, when she was coming to the house, make sure she doesn't touch it, make sure she doesn't take it. I said, it'll be fine, it'll be fine, it'll be fine. So with a few times that she was in the house over Christmas, I said, you can't even go near it, you just look at it new and you leave. Christmas Eve comes, I'm planning on spending the whole day by myself. I go to a meeting in the morning. I, you know, 'cause I had to work and then I come home and I decided I made chicken bog the night before, so I'm going to heat up some chicken bog and I've got my ginger ale, 'cause again, ginger all makes me feel fancy and I'm going to play video games and I'm fine and everything's great. So when I get home from work, I decide I'm going to light a candle. The candle that our listener Mandy sent us, actually. - Oh, which, by the way, I finally got my Mandy candle. Yay. - Yes, yes, and we appreciate Mandy. - Yes. - Yeah, they're fabulous. - Yes, yes. So I got my beautiful red country apple candle that comes in its little glass container and the red candle smells wonderful and I light the red candle and I am, you know, wandering around the house and the house smells great, all that sort of stuff. And now the candle is up on a ledge. The red candle is up on a ledge. - Wait, is the candle red? - Yes, the candle's right, shut up. And the hat is sitting on display on the bookshelf directly below this, like, I don't know what you would call it, like a mantle type thing that we have, that drum actually built before he left, well, me. (both laughing) - Happy holidays, everybody! - So, my birthday shelf, I mean, it's built onto the wall. - Yeah, I mean, this thing is, and it's beautiful, he did amazing work with it. The candle's been burning all day, everything's great. I sit down on the couch in my living room and I'm just sort of taking in the day and the sun is setting and the Christmas lights are going and I've got my, you know, cup of hot chocolate and I happen to look over at the mantle and I think, what is that stuff all around the candle? And I look over and apparently I let the candle burn too long and it cracked the glass and the red candle wax came out of the side of the candle holder and poured down the mantle onto the bookshelf where the green hat was sitting. - Ooh. - I have been forbidden to touch 'cause I will do something to it. - Yes, so I do the, the only thing I can remember is I just went, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, like the damage had been done but I got up and looked at it and I swear to God, it had formed a pool and then apparently dripped down the side. It looked like somebody broke into a Starbucks or somebody was robbing a Starbucks on Christmas Eve and then shot the employee execution style because it looked like a bullet hole and then the blood just dripping on the back of this hat. - To say I was a howler monkey when I called Taffy would be the understatement of the year. - I answered the phone. Now it is literally like 3/30 on Christmas Eve. You know, we've got 14 people going 14 different directions. We're getting ready to go up to the widow Carliles. We are doing last minute wrapping, last minute baking, last minute cooking, yada, yada, yada. This one calls me with the (screams) I said, what is going on? I don't even know how to tell you what just happened. I said, are you okay? But I just, I said, okay, just tell me what happened. Go ahead. - I don't even remember what I said. I just remember going, the candle, the candle. And it fell down and Babaloo's hat. And I don't know what to do. And she just went, you're kidding. And I'm like, I would not joke about something like this. - I said, you have a very limited amount of time. You can either listen to me very carefully or get it over here. Now Taylor lives about, well, the way he drives, he lives about 10, 15 minutes from my house. The way I drive, it was a good 20. - I was going to say, I drive about 20 minutes from your house. I think I got to her house in seven. - I think I was actually still talking to him at the doorbell ring, because he was a lawyer. - And I did the whole thing where I ran outside. And it was like I was cradling baby Jessica when they pulled her out of the way. (laughing) As I ran in my car, I was doing the whole way I had it in my, I was like, I had it swaddled in my arms and I'm like running to the car. And I'm just like, oh my God, oh my God. I was like, you know, the key shaking in my hand 'cause I'm trying to get it in the ignition. - I got to tell you. - Because I knew he was going to come home and I was going to have to explain to him what happened. So I get it to Tappy's. And the first thing Tappy says is she goes, go in the other room, you can't be standing next to me while I'm working on this. And I'm like, but I don't, I have to know. You have to see, she's like, you need to go in the other room. So she, apparently I was babysat by the little us Huffington who also needed, so we babysat each other because we apparently both had nervous energy. So it was Christmas Eve and she's 12, yes. - Yeah, she's 12, I'm 36, but apparently there's nobody babysat me. - So Tank is still in the last, you know, final half hour of his, you know, cooking, baking, making candy. So that's what we said, we said we have the, what was it, the cooker, the baker and the candlestick maker? - Yeah. - You heard, so this hat, honestly though, it had to have had two or three full ounces of liquid paraffin wax. - Oh. - I'm talking on the green fur, on the white fur. Thank God it wasn't on the embroidered patch. - Yeah, that's the one saving grace in all of this that it was not, that that would have, he would have come home and all of my stuff would have been gone. And I would have just said here, I've signed the mortgage over to you. (laughing) - So yeah, he wasn't allowed to watch me or be near me or to help me or to assist me in any way. 'Cause I just said, I said, you have to look at it this way. It's either ruined, so no matter what I'm going to do and I'm not going to ruin it more, or it will be better. It's either going to be one of those two things. You just have to look at it that way. So it ended up being okay. - It was better than okay, 'cause I saw it when I came over. It was a lot better than okay. - But the way you had to do it was, the only thing that I had that would fit in it that was the size I needed and the coarseness I needed to wear as my linen table napkins and for anyone who has wax on anything, all you have to do is put brown paper bags on top of it and a linen napkin underneath it. And when you put an iron to it, it releases the wax. The oil from the wax goes into the brown paper bag and the colored part of it goes down into the napkin. Well, it took 13 napkins, that's how much wax was in it. It took 13 full, 18 inch by 18 inch napkins to get it all out and it was a chore, not a difficult chore, but it was just, you had to just sit and just be patient and work it out. But it did eventually, I mean, it came out to the point where unless you knew what had happened, I don't really think you would have ever known what had happened. And I asked him at one point, I said, "Are you gonna tell him?" And he goes, "I'm gonna have to tell him." He goes, "Just because it's gonna be a good story, I'm gonna have to tell him." I'm like, you have to-- - That's not why I said that. I just said I could've lived with no room that this was going on without, that's-- - He was like, "I cannot tell the people of the podcast." - Exactly. - And so I pretty much, you know, Tappy says, well, if you want, you know, she had gotten the majority of it out and looked great. She goes, "I could possibly work on a little bit more tonight, but that means it needs to stay here," which I'm like, find if there was a chance that, you know, you could fix this then absolutely. So I go home, there's the story on the blog of my evening with, apparently, I spent it with Roxy Hart and Velma Kelly in the same person and-- - Again, where was your flip camera? - Yeah. - Maybe to see that, that was a, what an asshole. And the next day, Babaloo gets home. Babaloo is literally not in the house 1.3 seconds, and he says, "Where's my hat?" (laughing) Not Merry Christmas, not, "I'm so glad to be home, not I missed you, where's my hat?" To which I just said, "Well, hi, how are you?" And the next thing in his mouth was, "No, really, where's my hat?" And I just said, "Well, we'll talk about that in a minute." And he said, "No, we will talk about it now. "Where's my fucking hat?" - Aww. - So I pretty much, that was like the first thing out of my, out of my mouth when he came in is I had to tell him what happened. And he was like, "Oh, but she's fixing it, right?" And I said, "Yeah, she's fixing it." - No, it was, it was humorous, but you still owe me my napkins. - Yes, I will cash you, I keep forgetting, and I will, I will take you, I am all for the next three weeks from work, so I will, I will definitely, I'm sure at some point we will see each other. - Wait, what are you? - Wait, what are you? - Yeah, you think? - Please, you're taking the next three weeks off, so you can hand and wait on Miss Taffy-Carla Huffington hand and foot. - And I'm still in the chair. - Exactly. - But tomorrow, tomorrow is the 12th, the day I've been waiting for, because tomorrow is when I've decided I'm going to give an ultimatum to my doctor. The ultimatum is gonna be this. - Good luck with that. - You either put me in a fucking walking cast, an official walking cast, or Tank is cutting it off. Tank is cutting off the cast. That's gonna be his only options. I either get off. - Why, okay, first of all, that's asinine. Second of all, why don't you tell everybody what your doctor did to you on last Monday. - So this boot that I have that has the little Velcro straps across it? - Yeah. - Which is supposed to be helping to, you know, support things, but technically you weren't allowed to walk on and all this other crap. - Which you did plenty of limping around, even when I was there. I'm really not as bad as it right makes it out to be. I do use my chair a lot. - No, she was actually really good for those three weeks, which he put this on what, a week before Christmas? - No, this one on, yeah, the 19th. So, yeah. - Yeah, so a week before. Okay, yeah, so. - So I was doing really well, and I still use my chair for most of everything, but you know, when it takes you six minutes to do a three-point turn to, you know, be able to close the refrigerator door, sometimes it is just easier to get up and do it, and just suck it up. - So, I go to the doctor, we're talking, and I'm like, what am I gonna actually get, you know, a walking cast? Well, that is a walking cast. (laughing) Yeah, what you have on, that's a walking cast, but if we had told you you could have walked and that you'd have been walking for the last three weeks. (laughing) Two weeks, two other things. - I was thinking that when I saw it, I was like, that looks just like my walking cast. - Do you know how good that is for you? (laughing) - Shut up. - So, because anytime anybody else has something where things don't necessarily go their way, she goes, ah, that's good for you. - It's good for you. - She's stronger, she's stronger. - No, character. - So, and now this is one of these where she possibly could have been walking around in this for the last three weeks, and her doctor tricked her, and she fell for it, hook, line, and sink her. - Wait, did Ronvian just say he thought that when he saw it? - Yeah, I did, 'cause it looked a lot like my walking cast, and I was gonna say something. - Why would you have said that out loud? (laughing) - It'll be a punishment. - Oh my god. - So, yes, that is, and I will say that, you know, the little Tuffington's leg warmers have come quite handy, because I had, this is the new cast, this is my fourth cast, and this cast was done in red for Christmas, so it looked like Santa's boot, but you know, red on a daily basis, when I wear black on a normal basis, it was not happening, so her leg warmers have come in quite handy, because they also let my toes hang out too, which is, I think, kind of cool. It's the 80s, the 80s are back, leg warmers, y'all. Next I'm gonna try to put my hair on a sad ponytail. (laughing) - Jesus. - And wear my flash dance sweatshirt. - So now, explain to me why you are going to go in and give your doctor who knows what's best for you, and all to me and him that you are going to decide that you have suddenly had years of medical school training, and are going to just sort of take this over. - I, it was, it was, it was fun. It was a novelty, the fun and novelty of it is bearing off. It is time, I have, I have, I have not complained. It has been since November the 17th. I've done fine with that, but at this point now, when I walk, I don't have any pain when I'm walking, what's causing me pain is the cast sitting against the incision. And that's going to, that's going to be what I tell him. I'm gonna say, you know what, I'm standing on it. It doesn't hurt me to stand on it. What hurts me is the cast against the incision. And I had a port, I had a port on the side of my leg, which is no longer there, but where the port was, obviously there are fresh stitches. And when I, the cast, you know, the padding inside the cast wears down after so many days. So now it's really just fiberglass sitting on top of an incision, which is no bueno. So it has to just, it just has to go away. - Well, and you're eight weeks in at this point. So I mean, I was on crutches, like continuously, after about four, five. - Well, and I'm gonna tell him either, if he wants to take this cast off, again, this is the fourth one. If he wants to take this one off and put a new one on, I don't care as long as it has more padding, but I can't, or unless they want to pad where the incision is, but they just, they have to do something because it's just, it's not fun. And I don't choose to do a whole lot. - Well, it's not supposed to be fun. - But it can be fun. It can be fun. Let me tell you something. Let me tell you my, one of my favorite moments from Christmas break. Shall I tell you this? And it's quick. We were at the church that is affiliated with our daughter's school for their Christmas program. And Tank's mom. - You told this story already. - Yeah. - I did. When I went flying down the ramp. - Yeah. - Yes, this is the kind of thing you're supposed to do in a wheelchair. These are the kind of things that you're supposed to do. So there is an element of fun to this. There's no question. You go to Disney World, you're in a wheelchair. You get a, you know, people are nice to you. You get a couple of front of the line access. It's not a lot, but a few. So for the most part, you can, you can make this a good situation. As long as you know, the pain medicine is still working. - Yeah, all you kids with debilitating diseases, you got it lucky. Life's fun for you. - Shut up. But no, I, at this point, I'm just, I'm kind of done with it. And if he doesn't want me to walk. - Little Sally's paralyzed from the legs damp from the waist down. - Shut up. - Life's a fucking dream. (laughing) - Let me tell you something though. I have talked about potentially having extra skin and stuff taken off because I didn't like it. I think that being in a wheelchair for a very, very teeny, tiny, short amount of time is making me appreciate my body and the fact that it works. I might not ever, ever, ever want to purposely put myself in the situation of having to be incapacitated ever. - Yeah, you'll get in a sling. - Yeah. (laughing) - I told you I had a, a sexual story. I had to discuss with you off of the podcast. (laughing) - Oh, nice. - So, but no, I, I just, yeah, it's, we're done. And seen, we're done with the camera. - Yeah. - I'm deciding I'm going to have a party though. I'm going to have a castaway party. (laughing) - Jesus, oh Lord. - I am, I'm going to have a castaway party where, you know, it's playing in the background and we all grow out beards and, you know, eat uncooked fish. I have no idea. (laughing) Do something. - John Goodman will be there. (laughing) - Oh. - Can you imagine John Goodman in the movie castaway, what that would look like five years later? Really, really. - She'd have her own dress because she would just have the skin. - Oh, no, no, no, no. - Oh, no, no, no, no, no. - That's right, that's right, that's right. - Yes, we make fun of fat people all the time on the show. - Oh, it's true. - You know, myself who's, you know. - Just a hair under. - 700 pounds. (laughing) - Wow. - Wow. - Yeah. - People are assholes. (laughing) - People are entitled to their opinion after, but, you know, they're entitled to their opinion. - No. - Unless they're playing fucking games and then they can go fucking die. (laughing) - Well, and I think that's what this is. - Wow. - So, but. - But no one tears bitter. - I mean, I'm really not bitter. I mean, if it's a game, then that's shitty. If it's someone really voicing their opinion, that's how they feel, that's how they feel. I mean, we can't change that. - Yeah. So. - For those of you wondering, we got another one star review. - Look at the family. - From somebody who's hit multiple other podcasts recently. And that's really all I wanna say about it. I don't know, I shouldn't have brought it up. It's my fault. - That's all right. - So, and I don't mean to interrupt anybody because, manly, I interrupt all of you all the time. - God, Taylor. - Yeah, whatever. So, Rodin, what's new with you? (laughing) - Sorry, I was just thinking about that whole interrupting cow thing. - Noo, noo. (laughing) - Yeah. - I love brat and bretta. (laughing) Completely on call of words. - Sorry. (laughing) - I don't know why I had that in my head all of a sudden. So, not my, I mean, you know, I was off the whole week after I got back from Florida and just really did nothing and it was wonderful. - I was gonna say, but wasn't that good? - I was gonna say, that's great for you because you're constantly happen to be on the go-go-go. - Yeah, no, I mean, it was wonderful and lucky came over a couple times for a couple days and it was, that was really, really good and you know, we're thinking about moving in together pretty soon. - Oh! - Oh, whoa, whoa, what? - Back up! (laughing) - What? - You know what? I give you a credit for trying to slip that in but you don't really think that we were gonna let that go. (laughing) - Well, it's been three months that we've been officially boyfriends. So, not that, you know, three months is a big deal but I mean, it's, I don't know. We've been talked about it for a while and we don't have a date yet. I mean, lucky has to find a job up this way 'cause unfortunately, the whole kicker for this is that he lives about an hour and a half away. - So would he move to you or would you move? Well, you can move to him though, can you? - No, so it'd pretty much be him moving up this way. So, well, I mean, we'll see. I mean, it may take some time given the current, you know, economy. So, but whenever he finds a job up this way, he's gonna move up. - So you're gonna be shacking up, nice. - Yes, living in sin. - Nice. - Well, there you go. It's fun, it's fun. I enjoy very much living in sin. - Yeah. - Me too. - I feel like Bobaloo and I, Bobaloo and I have decided, did I tell you about the whole way we see our relationship? - No. - He's the best, he's the best of multiple worlds for me because I get to be with somebody who obviously, I love very much, but I torment him constantly. So, I get to have the little brother that I never had 'cause he's younger than I am. And I also get to have somebody who's like a best friend because he and I have a lot of the same interests. So, I have a little brother who I like to talk about comic books with and occasionally will suck me off. - And pound your ass into oblivion. - That is truly one of the best ways to describe, I think a good relationship. I agree 100%. People all the time used to think that Tank and I were brother and sister. We actually had a waitress once at a restaurant when we were acting stupid with one another and she was just like, "Oh, I think it's so nice that you can spend time with your sister or you can spend time with your brother." And I said, "Yeah, we get to have sex too." And she gave us the strangest advice. (laughing) I mean, it's very fun to have somebody to play with and be stupid with and yet someone who will pick on you and make sure that you're brought down to earth a little bit. And, you know. But I think that means that I'm supposed to be having sex with you then. (laughing) - Yeah, right? - I wish. (laughing) - Well, and Taylor takes it to a whole new level with Babaloo. - He does torment him to death. But, you know, I think there's a little bit of him that likes to act. - I was shocked because, you know, if I do that to Taylor, Taylor is over it in like five minutes flat. - No, no, no, no, no. Taylor didn't say Babaloo could torment Taylor. Taylor said she could do it to torment Babaloo. There's a big difference there. (laughing) - And, you know what, there's occasionally Babaloo. Babaloo doesn't necessarily do it as much in front of everybody. Babaloo gets in his tormenting around here as well. - He did in the car one night. I think on the way home from Christmas night dinner. And I think he zoned you once. And he was something like he said, "That's enough." And Taylor went, "That's enough. That's enough." And I turned around and looked at Babaloo and Babaloo and was like, "That's right. That's right. I can sass. I can sass." I was like, "I think I'm going to be just a little more." Well, yeah, but it'd be like the three of us in the car for like three days. And I would be, maybe talking about something. I'd be like, "Well, didn't you just say Taylor that?" Yeah, I was making it worse the whole time. - Yeah. Yeah, thank you, Mr. Eggen at on. - He's there to stir the pot though. That's okay. - Yeah. - We had pot. - Yeah. (laughing) - Where the hell was I? I don't remember that, or maybe that's it. Maybe I smoked it. - That's why I don't remember that's why I don't remember. - I'm gonna tell you something. The picture I took of you boys playing guitar hero, there was some 420 going on somewhere because you all laid out. (laughing) You completely granged. (laughing) 'Cause anybody been watching the Golden Globes tonight? - Boba Lou's been watching them. Actually, that's not true, Boba Lou. - He's been killing zombies. - And I watched a little bit of the pre-show and I hate Ryan Seacrest with a passion. - Yeah, I don't care about him. - I can't watch this anymore. He turned on his dead zombie game and I came in here and listened to, I listened to the "That's What She Said" podcast. I've caught up on all the episodes. It's very funny and they apparently listen to us. - Which podcast? - That's what she said. - That's what she said. - That's what she said. - It's friends of, there were originally friends of Ricky from "Felmunkies" who, which by the way, he sent us an email tonight wanting to remind listeners that "Felmunkies" is back. They just posted a new episode today. They had been gone for like a month and a half, but they had their first episode. So make sure you go and listen to their show. And they're very, very funny. They're extremely funny. I posted a video on our blog or a link to a video. - I didn't know I'd go and watch it yet because I was going to and then something happened and we were using the computer for something else. But I definitely want to see this because apparently it's something that's going to repulse me. So yes, if I repulse you, you're going to be fascinated by it. That's all I'm gonna say. - Oh, okay. Should I watch it now? - Where are the girls? - Oh, they're in bed. It's a school night. - Okay, then go watch it now. (laughing) - All right, well, hold on a second. Is this something, I'm not gonna punch you in the face, I think. - Probably. (gasps) - What the hell? Should I play it? - Wait, do I have to listen to it? 'Cause I have my sound turned off. - Yeah, listen to it. - I think Tanka listening to this too. (laughing) Apparently she was listening to this and turning that. - That's like a year's Tanka. What the hell is that? - Oh my. What the, why do you want me to watch someone peeing? (laughing) - She's not peeing. She's a- (laughing) - What the hell is this? - She, that's not pee. - No. - Then she has a problem. (laughing) - I have an issue. She might want to, yeah. She's a bit rid of that. - The best part of that is here at Tanka. What are you doing? - I know. That was good. - So anyway, that's what she said. It's a very funny podcast. It's a very funny podcast. Check 'em out. - Why does it say sorry Ricky, sorry, Nessa? - Because that's their blog was, it's called sorry Ricky, 'cause they make fun of Ricky on every episode. (laughing) - Ricky helped smell balls with me, so you can't pick on him too much. - Well, that's true. - Yes. - I knew that I could go there for free porn. Well, hell. (laughing) - No, it's not fun porn. - No, that wasn't fun. That porn made me a little concerned, actually. - Well, we've only got a couple more minutes, so do we want to talk about the new stuff? - Sure. - Okay. - Well, late pop's getting breast implants? No, I'm sitting here. (laughing) Do not send me letters. (laughing) - Do not send me letters. - Do not send me letters. - Well, we, you might've been looking at your clock going, it's only been 40 minutes. What are they talking about that we need to wrap things up? We are, like many other podcasts apparently, making some slight changes to the show. We are still doing the same pretty much over, we talk about our lives and all that sort of stuff, but we actually are gonna be adding some things as well. It's a little soon to talk about it, but we have some new segments. And we're gonna be tweaking pot as my copie a little bit. It's pretty much gonna be a lot of the same, but with some new stuff that we hope you like as well. - One of the segments is going to be called The Inside Look at an adolescent boy's mind with Taffy Carla Huffington. - And that's all you need to say about it. - Okay. - That's, that's, let's, let's, let's, let's just, let's, let's, a little room in it on that. Yeah, a little teaser. Rodan has a segment. - Just a tip, just to see how it feels. - Yeah. (laughing) Rodan has a segment that's coming up that Taffy came up with a great title for us. - Yes. - That we are gonna be talking about, and hopefully we're gonna be doing more video shows and all that sort of thing. The big thing that is probably gonna be the most different is that we've decided that we are going to limit ourselves to a 45 minute show a week. - We're implementing the Michael Rule. - Yeah, yeah. Because ultimately it comes right down to, if Michael doesn't listen. - Really? - We're not doing the show. Now I'm just kidding. (laughing) I was about to say. - I also agree with that, but okay. - No, I am totally kidding on that. - You just wanna impress Papa Michael. Because. (laughing) Because since we are still off. - You've expressed, Rodan, are not exactly a compliment. - And somebody on the show just lost a friend on Facebook. (laughing) - Yeah, no, we decided that it's, we've all got a lot going on. One thing that we definitely enjoy doing is the show. And I really looked forward to coming back together with you guys tonight and taping. My schedule has become a lot crazier. And actually that's part of the reason I'm taking a few weeks off from work. And I decided that I won a, one goal that I have is to get the show out a little bit more regularly. And those of you who are long time listeners of the show probably recognize that I was having difficulty keeping up, you know, things were getting a little late. - We blame Bobaloo, Bobaloo really. That's what we were like. - Ultimately, it is his fault because again, he's Cuban. (laughing) I would like to get the show out a little bit on a little bit more regular schedule. And in order to do that, we have moved back to taping on Sunday nights. It's out of Monday nights. And that gives me time to edit and get the shows out on Mondays. So that's the plan for now. We would love to hear what everybody has to say about it, whether you like it or not. Not whether you like it or not, 'cause that's the end of the day. You know, but I meant, you know, we would like to hear if you like the ideas, if you don't like the ideas, and pretty much what you would like to see us do to make pot as my co-pilot more enjoyable to you. I'll be going to make those changes. Who knows? (laughing) - I'll be right. - But you know what? We're always up for hearing ideas. - And you know, apparently watching girls. - Squirt. (laughing) - Squirt. - He's gonna make me squirt. - Oh. - Oh. - Thank you for that. - Thank you. Now I'm gonna have that whole image in my head all night. (laughing) - All righty. Well, we are at 45, and you are going to have to edit some of this. So in true fashion, pot as my co-pilot will stay, will keep its word. - Yes. - Sort of. - Well, by the time we edit this out, it'll actually probably be about 40 minutes, but that's okay. As always, you can go to our blog, which is potasmycopilot.com. You can email us at potasmycopilot@gmail.com. Leave us a voice mail at 206-202-5165. Be our friend at MySpace@myspace.com/potasmycopilot, which by the way, we got a new friend today on MySpace, which was the first time in forever. - Yay. - So Chris, a listener from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Hello, Chris. - Hi, Chris. - And also join our, hi, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt you guys. Forgive me. - Gotcha. - And I put, again, I'm not bitter. Also, be our friend and join our group. Okay, so I love potasmycopilot on Facebook. - Which, by the way, one of my New Year's resolutions, Taylor had helped me accomplish by December 28th. - Yes, yes. And she's on there all the time now. So-- - No, I'm not. - I'm on there more than I thought I would be. How's that? - Okay, yeah. - You're on enough to where you update your status. - Yes. - I get your status updates all the time. - Yes, I do. I have been, I have been known to update the status at least once or twice a day. - Yeah, so sit on Taffy's Facebook. - Sit on my, sit on my Facebook with Taffy Carla Huffington. And be sure to check out the podcast art this week. Yeah, because it's a picture of, because we're episode 88, and Taffy graduated from high school in 1888. We have her picture up. - Nice, in 1888, suck me. - Nice. - Yes. - Showing off her pom-poms. - I'm showing off her pom-poms, so to speak. - So everybody have a great week. We will be back next Monday with some new segments and some potasmycopilot that hopefully you all enjoy, so thank you all very much. This is Taylor. - And Taffy. - And Rodan. - Have a good week, everybody. Bye-bye. - Bye-bye. (upbeat music) - You've been listening to "Hog Is My Copilot" with Taylor the Latte boy, Taffy Carlisle Huffington, and Rodan. Aren't you glad you did? See you next time.
