Show notes

Cary’s birthday is here, and Robb celebrates with T-bones, a professionally engineered bread pudding, a freshly detailed car, and one tire-pressure light that has apparently been living its own private life. Mike gets serious about a disturbing immigration video before the boys return to the safer waters of presidential documentaries, fun First Ladies, and the unexpectedly useful phrase “Pat Nixon.” Then an airline nightmare gives that phrase a whole new meaning—and makes a free upgrade to first class seem like the bare minimum. Mike’s snake tastes freedom, a finger monkey becomes the pet nobody needs, and Florida neighborhood paranoia reaches beautifully antisocial new heights. Plus, Robb prepares for eye surgery by dating every medical form with Cary’s 1968 birthday and placing his future vision in the capable digital hands of a scheduling app named Robert.

[SPEAKER_07]: I'm going to hold up something really nasty right now and I'm not trying to flip everybody off, but I want to see if you can see oh my my my cuticle. [SPEAKER_08]: Oh, you know what, from a distance out of focus, it looks like a firecracker burn. [SPEAKER_08]: You ever bring my fingernails? [SPEAKER_08]: There we go.

[SPEAKER_07]: uh... gets uh... gets irritated and i'm supposed to go to the dermatologist and get it fixed uh... i'd like to win it it's like when these to show close-ups of letterman's hands it's not a part of that and here i am doing it but i i just uh... uh... uh... the shop can have anything good in your drawers of your desk because you're also seated at a desk no i mean i've got chapstick [SPEAKER_06]: Uh-huh. [SPEAKER_06]: I have, uh-huh. [SPEAKER_06]: Ben's. [SPEAKER_06]: I have, uh-huh. [SPEAKER_06]: Koozy. [SPEAKER_07]: By the way, I should point out this is the beginning of the show. [SPEAKER_08]: Right. [SPEAKER_07]: So just imagine how good the show is going to be today when we're going through our desks, uh, and doing that. [SPEAKER_07]: Right. [SPEAKER_07]: We totally changed that. [SPEAKER_07]: You know, this is all because he wanted to do that. [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_07]: All to bring out that knife. [SPEAKER_08]: No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, [SPEAKER_07]: I know such her in turn it and the only he would do blade up and hold it like that. [SPEAKER_07]: Okay, there we go. [SPEAKER_07]: Now a little bit more level so we can see the shape of the blade. [SPEAKER_07]: Now everything I'm seeing appears to be a legitimate weapon of some kind. [SPEAKER_08]: Yeah, it was a gift to that my, my aunt Peggy, her husband worked for the State Department and they did some years in Greece. [SPEAKER_08]: And this, yeah, she brought this back from Greece. [SPEAKER_07]: you know you keep his memory alive for anybody online you truly do you know he's still his occasional cameo pop up and it's always pretty not wonderful the real quality there um so welcome to the micro marriage show after all that and uh it seems as though uh things have come down um you know only the last one last minute phone call and uh i lost track of time I said what happened now and i was just my wife [SPEAKER_07]: collecting my son at school and they're going to work out. [SPEAKER_07]: My kid given thumbs up asked him how his math test that he was so nervous about was he said easy. [SPEAKER_07]: Something I never did. [SPEAKER_07]: There's another thing I never said. [SPEAKER_07]: I never took a math anything that had to do with mathematics and said easy. [SPEAKER_08]: You know, and that's funny about math tests. [SPEAKER_08]: You can come away from them and say they're easy. [SPEAKER_08]: If it's like an essay test for English, you never know how it's going to come out because it's so subjective. [SPEAKER_08]: But I look at math in just numbers. [SPEAKER_07]: I look at the comments from, [SPEAKER_07]: And I know that people want something for me dug, trought, uh, dart out for the year old news. [SPEAKER_07]: I already knew he was out for the year. [SPEAKER_07]: It's just somebody wants me to have that reaction. [SPEAKER_08]: I like that they've reminded you, yeah. [SPEAKER_08]: Yeah, I think certain people enjoyed your energy yesterday, it's because it was definitely altered by the way that giants were playing. [SPEAKER_07]: But top of the food chain today, we must take pause and wish Rob's wife Carrie a very, very happy birthday. [SPEAKER_07]: It is her birthday today. [SPEAKER_07]: Would you like to guess? [SPEAKER_08]: Would you like to guess her age? [SPEAKER_07]: uh... she knows she's substantially older than me and i'm fifty five you said substantially older i always have said that to piss her off it's not really uh... one year older yeah right she's like a year older than you they may be maybe out two two big deal three she's so she ain't she's the thirdy yeah let me feel that makes me feel really old that's a happy [SPEAKER_07]: Well, I'm sure she's really happy that you're popping off with her, right? [SPEAKER_07]: That's like what I need. [SPEAKER_07]: Oh, thank you. [SPEAKER_08]: Thank God she doesn't listen ever, so it won't be a problem. [SPEAKER_06]: Did you remind her how much younger you are before or after you said happy birthday? [SPEAKER_08]: Um, I believe the first thing I said to her this morning as I rolled out of bed as I looked at her and I just birthday. [SPEAKER_08]: I didn't say happy. [SPEAKER_08]: I just said birthday. [SPEAKER_07]: Let me ask you as we all planned for the future to where we're going forward and Rob and Josh will be doing a show that they have named still talking. [SPEAKER_07]: How does a Mrs. Spiewak has anything changed with her enthusiasm level? [SPEAKER_08]: I just am looking at his face when I already knew he is. [SPEAKER_08]: Not a lot. [SPEAKER_08]: No, let me change. [SPEAKER_08]: You know what? [SPEAKER_08]: I said that to be funny. [SPEAKER_08]: Let me give you the truth. [SPEAKER_08]: Not at all. [SPEAKER_08]: She doesn't care, she doesn't care, but you know what? [SPEAKER_07]: Does she, does she feel as though, yes, this is a good thing for you. [SPEAKER_07]: Does she feel like she's supportive of, well, these are the wrong questions. [SPEAKER_08]: A good thing for me would be a good thing for the family. [SPEAKER_08]: And so let's put it this way. [SPEAKER_08]: I won't say she's optimistic, but I will say she's excited to see what happens. [SPEAKER_08]: Now, my kids have been very excited and enthusiastic. [SPEAKER_08]: Of course, you know what they like what you do and my mom who has really gotten to a point where she stops down her day and watches us on YouTube. [SPEAKER_07]: I don't know why I even ask, I try, I always think I'm going to get some kind of different answer when it comes to your wife and I never do, you know. [SPEAKER_08]: Fired of everything, I think. [SPEAKER_08]: I mean, let's say you, Mike, just for fun, just for fear, there's nothing she's 50. [SPEAKER_08]: Let's, let's say you had stayed with a single woman for 30 years, which is be my wedding anniversary. [SPEAKER_08]: Congratulations. [SPEAKER_07]: That's wonderful. [SPEAKER_08]: Do you think that that spouse that 30 years spouse wouldn't be tired of all the [SPEAKER_07]: If I had stayed with the same woman for 30 years, yeah, I've been incidentally. [SPEAKER_07]: I have been with the same woman for over 20 years. [SPEAKER_07]: So I no longer. [SPEAKER_08]: But Mike did a set up again where you say if you had stayed with the same woman if I had stayed with the same woman for 30 years. [SPEAKER_07]: It is I am living proof that it doesn't buy happiness. [SPEAKER_08]: Yeah, you're right. [SPEAKER_07]: You don't buy happiness by, you know, hold onto what you had because you didn't get divorced. [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_07]: The person I was married to, I don't know. [SPEAKER_06]: I think it brings a lot of pain to send that money every month. [SPEAKER_07]: it does. [SPEAKER_07]: But but do you when you think about your breakup and your alimony and your child support, do you feel as though you would want to get that back into your bank account and be with the same person? [SPEAKER_07]: Uh, no, I would just like that second house I'm paying for. [SPEAKER_08]: But it's what they always have said. [SPEAKER_08]: Why is divorce so expensive and you're fresh out of it than I was. [SPEAKER_07]: And I remember how I was when I was going through what you're going through. [SPEAKER_07]: And it is terrible. [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_07]: And the laws are terrible. [SPEAKER_07]: And if the laws were to, but I have to also say this that the laws are terrible. [SPEAKER_07]: And they're not fair, but at the same time, [SPEAKER_07]: If you forced, if the laws were so difficult that they forced people to stay together, right, that shouldn't stay together, that would be bad too. [SPEAKER_06]: So I don't know, it's a lose lose. [SPEAKER_06]: Right. [SPEAKER_06]: It's also, yeah, and it's anti-man. [SPEAKER_06]: but also because there's so many horrible men out there that you have to have at anti-men to protect the women you do. [SPEAKER_0
