Hello, and welcome back to SourceFedNERD with the daily
edition of Table Talk, where we talk about your questions
and your topics that you post on Twitter using the hashtag
#tabletalk or reddit.com/r/sourcefed.
My name is Philip DeFranco.
I'm Steve Zaragoza.
And I'm Trisha Hershberger.
I'm gonna jump in.
I have energy for the first time ever
because I wasn't a lazy piece of *** over the weekend.
Good.
I like that you guys think that's a laugh.
We did the Radiolab.
Ah ha ha!
Going on threes.
Going on threes.
Going on fours.
You were doing that when--
We got traffic at the top of the hour.
We got the 405 freeway.
I'm having a stroke.
And now let's listen to some Michael Jackson.
We have Perez coming in-- hey, hey, uh-- stuff happened,
and I was like, what?
And then--
And that was your daily gossip.
Gossip on the nines.
What?
Michael MacDonald says, if someone
handing you a billion dollars, what
is the first thing you would buy?
*** me.
A bill-- I don't know what happens after a billion.
I've had the conversation of how much would you just
be like, good for the rest of your life.
Like, you could live in luxury.
And also, would you want to spend the billion
dollars on you, or would you want to set it up
so you could have, like, a family empire that you
know eventually-- like eight generations in-- it's gone.
They're just gonna squander.
Yeah.
Well I guess the first thing you'd do is like you invest,
right?
Right away.
Like buy some real estate.
Something like that.
Well investing is always good.
Because then you're making money on your money.
And if you've gotten that much money you can invest in stuff
that conceivably will make you even more money.
Because like you can invest a lowest common denominator
and be like, I'm all right.
I'm scraping by.
But if you invest with like-- you have a billion dollars,
and you investment in something worth a little less than that,
you're like, good, right?
I mean there's no way to lose when you invest
a shitload of money in something that you like--
Well, you can always lose money.
Right, right.
And money could also lose value.
You know.
I think that's a big thing.
But rich people, for the most part,
can stay rich, whether they go into the stock market
or they go into low-risk-- you could make 1%.
If you have $100 million, you just put your money somewhere
where you make 1%, and you're like I
guess I could live on $1 million a year.
I guess.
I mean, I don't really know.
Scraping by.
When I was growing up I worked at a call center for a bank.
And percentage rates were much better than they are today.
But still, you could-- Adam Sandler also
went through my bank.
I want to say that.
No way!
That's funny.
I was really pumped about that.
Did he call and be like, doopity-doo!
Uh, could you please put money in my account?
No, when you get that rich, you have a money manager.
Someone that literally, they just go--
so what are we gonna do with Sandler's money?
Yeah, but you-- it has to be someone you *** trust, man.
Well, you pay them for--
Yeah, but there's only so much money
you can give someone and pay for their trust, right?
Because who knows?
If you're paying for their trust,
they're probably sneaky people already, right?
Well doesn't that usually work like they make a percentage
off the money they make you?
So it's in their best interest to make you money?
That's the whole point of incentivizing people.
Because yeah.
Most people receive a base and then they get a percentage.
So that they actually have value.
I just feel like there's always some guy
on the side who's like, I'll double it.
Or triple it.
Well that's where you have the Bernie May ***.
Oh, there you go.
Where *** what's-his-face that's on "The Killing,"
he's doing TV.
Kevin Bacon's doing TV because-- a lot of people don't know,
but he lost a *** ton of money during that whole Bernie
Madoff-- sorry, Bernie Madoff fiasco.
I didn't know that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Wow.
I didn't know that either.
I'm so sorry, Kevin Bacon.
A lot of people lost a ton of money.
Because you hear I can make you twice the money.
And you're like, you can make me twice the money,
and all my friends are in on it?
Yeah, but Kevin Bacon's rolling in that "Tremors" money.
It's just coming in.
Oh, is that what's happening?
That's what's happening?
He's like, it's on Netflix, ***!
That's right.
And you can't forget the Bacon Brothers.
I mean, he's on tour.
Oh, yeah.
Dude, I saw the Bacon Brothers at Comic-Con last year.
Was it awesome?
Yeah.
It was me and Lee and Joe.
And we're all hanging out.
And then all of a sudden-- for some reason
we just ended up-- because music,
and you walk towards sounds happening.
Of course.
And there's big crowds.
And then all of a sudden it's like, the Bacon Brothers.
Did you freak out?
Well no, I was like-- I didn't know what it was.
So I was like, this is gonna *** hilarious.
Who calls themselves the Bacon Brothers?
This is gonna be funny!
We are jumping all over the place.
But didn't you see Jeff Goldblum play at--
Yeah, I saw Jeff Goldblum play some live jazz.
That's amazing.
It was amazing.
Did he like--
No.
He 100%--
[INTERPOSING VOICES]
Did he really?!
Yeah.
And he was just pulling people up
from the audience, and giving hugs, and--
So here's the question, though.
Was he good, or was he good because he
was Jeff Goldblum doing jazz.
Yeah.
Good point.
A mix of both.
Ah.
He was good because you could tell he just enjoyed immensely.
Did he go, like-- did he tickle the ivories and then go,
this next track is called Like Finds a Way.
No, he was playing and doing what he wanted to do.
And his buddies were up there jamming with him.
It was like watching a jam session in their garage.
You could just tell they were having-- you're just
paying to see them have fun.
He's just like this is what I do in my free time for funsies.
And he was going.
And then he rubbed up on all the ladies in between every,
like, four-- he was like, of course
I'll take a picture with you, as he massages
your shoulder on the other side.
Oh yeah.
He was doing that.
I never know how to take a picture with a girl.
Right?
Because at E3-- no, here's the deal, though.
Because I am a weird person.
I start getting self-conscious about stuff.
So when I would take a picture with someone,
I'd be like-- so it would be a girl, and I'd go shoulder.
Yeah.
And then I started over thinking it and I was like,
is that weird?
So then I did, like, hip--
Hip's weirder.
But then in one picture I went too far.
I didn't realize--
Butt.
No, not butt.
Like here.
Oh.
That's like a little girlfriendy.
It was weird.
And I looked at the picture, I was like--
That's midsection.
I don't know if I have the guts for hip.
I'm not-- I don't have the confidence for it.
So I always say take two pictures.
One normal.
Right?
And then-- well, no, sorry.
No.
One normal, and then one--
The don't touch just in case.
But it's a funny hover hands.
No, and then-- and this is really
gonna make you guys paranoid now.
Sometimes when you go for shoulder
you could accidentally get ***.
Ooh.
That's not an accident.
With you.
With you.
But I mean, that's happened.
If it happens it's not an accident.
I'm sure of it.
Or you can go hip, and then on the way out
you accidentally graze the ***.
I've heard from a lot of people, a lot of women,
that that happens a lot.
But it's a lot on purpose.
Oh yeah.
The ***?
A lot on purpose.
The go for the ***?
Yeah.
Well there was that video--
You go for the ***?
You go for the ***?
There's the picture, you know, they
put their arms-- like if there's a lady on either side.
Put the arms around their hips.
And then just on the way out you just do a little graze.
And if it's a little graze and a squeeze,
that's not on accident.
A squeeze.
There's a video on the channel that went up
this weekend of the zombie thing.
I think it's a zombie thing.
Or it might be bloopers--
Did you touch a zombie ***?
No, no.
It's either bloopers or zombie.
I can't remember.
I'm sorry.
But Meg got-- Luigi touches Meg's butt.
Oh, Luigi totally pulled a butt-graze.
Which one was it?
Was it bloopers?
Luigi touched my butt.
Because he full-on touched her hiney.
And then he did this.
And then he went--
First of all I'm thinking, OK, so it's Meg, so--
and it's a guy in a costume.
So he's like, I'm gonna go for it.
He might not have been able to see.
To be fair.
See, they give Luigi a few games to himself and he just starts--
So he's got a big head?
Yeah.
No, back to the question.
Act like we answered the question.
After investing, I would just travel.
That's a thing.
I'm not really-- like, I like material things, just
like the next guy.
But for me, at this point in my life,
it's all about the experiences.
So I'd probably just travel a bunch.
I wouldn't stay at hostels like I normally do.
My girlfriend loves that.
She's like, it's the real experience.
I'm like, I don't need the real experience.
I'll just stay at a really nice place and [INAUDIBLE]
and go out into the world.
I won't go on the tours.
And I'll meet real people.
But I'm not staying at a *** hostel,
because I hate sharing rooms with people.
Because I have a fear of being stabbed.
I get that.
That makes sense.
I have to travel with electronics,
so I can't do the hostel.
Because I'm like, don't take my things.
If I had a billion dollars I would buy an island
and build everything I like on it.
So I would make my own amusement park on it.
I would have my own, like, beach resort section of it.
Put a island right across from Richard Branson's island,
and then fight.
Just have a war.
Just have cannons constantly shooting across.
The smallest war.
It's an ongoing tower defense game.
And then slowly brings in, like, Britain,
and it slowly brings in the United States
and we start the next world war.
No, no.
No war.
It's a peaceful island.
First of all, I'd clear all my damn debt.
Not like I have that much.
But I'd clear the damn debt instantly.
Second of all I would probably set my family up.
My mom and dad, at least.
Totally.
Like, instantly.
I'd be like, I'm living OK, I'm living comfortably.
My parents-- we grew up in a house in Oxnard.
Not the greatest part of town.
Lots of crime.
They took care of you, you take care of them.
Yes, they way took care of me.
So I'd take care of them.
And then after that I would do, like, *** video games
and arcade-- I'd probably build my own arcade.
Right?
For me.
Just for me.
Yeah.
Just for you.
And then I would buy it and put it on my island.
OK.
And then we can hang out all the time.
Perfect.
Let's try and get a second question.
Holy ***.
And that's it for Table Talk.
Thank you so much for watching.
OK, just really fast.
So former-- well, former part-time editor at Bowman--
I saw a picture that Kevin [INAUDIBLE]
posted of his house, which, one, featured Bowman in a thong.
Was he in a Speedo?
I heard about this.
Yeah.
But across the street you see a gang literally tagging a wall.
And I was like, ***.
I've lived in the suburbs now too long.
Because I grew up in *** places in New York.
I've been in the suburbs too long, because I
was like, white-guy-terrified.
I was like, no.
I wouldn't even visit you.
Well, see, I've got white-guy-- I'm white-guy-terrified, too.
But like, my dad's car got stray bullets in it
back when there was a gang.
Wha-- Oxnard?
Yeah.
On my street.
Right in front of-- in fact, right
in front of my bedroom window.
What was your childhood?
Girls are getting, like, abortions at school--
Oh, dude.
Kids were having sex in the confessionals in the church.
Yeah.
It was crazy.
Well that's a thing that happens.
OK.
Let's go.
That was not a thing that happened
where I was growing up.
At least, if it happened, I wasn't aware of it.
Can I tell you guys this?
The cops would come through our house
into our backyard to go to the house next door.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
All the time.
Terrifying.
Terrifying.
Let's see what we got.
That is terrifying.
Childhood.
All right.
Karen Pennell says best worst exercise you've ever done,
and how hard do you think coaches should
push their athletes at all levels?
Oh.
I don't know.
So I'm trying to get back in shape again.
That's been a thing for like two, three weeks.
And I feel better already.
Good for you.
My way of breaking into it was Lindsay took me to this thing
where you do something for like--
Circuit training.
Yeah.
So you're supposed to do it for 90 seconds.
But they have a weird sadistic thing about it,
that instead of 90 seconds, we're
going to do it until the people on the rowers
get to a certain thing.
And the class I went to had a lot of first-timers like me.
So I busted my ***, because I'm terrified of people judging.
OK.
Just random strangers in real life.
Internet I can deal with.
That's something [INAUDIBLE].
People in real life, I'm like, I don't
want you looking at my fat *** while I'm in this room.
So I bust ***.
But then this little girl-- like,
she has the right to be there, but I'm
like, let's do 90 seconds, because the little girl
is just like-- she's trying to huff it.
But she's a tiny person, and she's weak.
And so there I am, I'm like giving her the *** death
stare while I'm doing-- I have, like-- what the *** is it?
Bells-- not dumbbells, but-- kettle bells.
I have kettle bells, doing squats.
Oh!
And I haven't worked out in forever.
And my ***-- just, everything feels broken.
I do it for like 15 minutes, and I just stumble out of the room.
And I have to lay down.
And I literally-- I pass out for five minutes.
Oh my god, Phil.
I was like, this is the worst thing.
Oh my god.
But it got my-- it got me right back into it.
But I could totally see people being overworked.
You hear, like, people-- especially
when it's hot-- dying from heatstroke.
Stuff like that.
But I think you always have to push, I think-- well,
I'm trying to push until exhaustion.
But like, if you stay hydrated, and-- obviously,
if you see spots, that's a whole different thing.
But like literally doing it-- not going to 10,
but going until, like--
See, I don't think I'll push myself exercise-wise until I
see spots, but I'll definitely game until I see spots.
That does not count as exercise.
Well, but it's fatigue.
It's fatigue.
And have you ever heard of e-sports?
Uh, it's a thing.
It's a thing, all right?
They're newer--
Hey, Steve, I would love to jump on that bandwagon.
Because then I would be a great athlete as well.
I know, right?
So what do you do?
I was gonna say, I think you're a great person
to ask about this one, because you're always
striving to be more healthy.
I go in and out.
I have moments where I'll go through like a six month chunk
where I'm like, yeah, I'm gonna go to the gym every day,
and I'm gonna juice, and I'm gonna do this.
And then I just get lazy for a while.
See, but you get lazy and you don't
eat a million pounds of chocolate.
That's my thing.
I eat like-- so right before the RNC
I had been losing a ton of weight.
I think I was like 205.
I was actually able to wear a medium-size shirt.
And I was like the most pumped I've ever been.
Yeah!
But when we went to the RNC/DNC, I just started eating terribly.
Ooh.
And you guys were eating at restaurants all the time,
right?
Yeah.
Which is horrible for you.
There was a night we literally ordered, like,
burgers and a hundred chicken wings.
I mean, it sounds delightful.
Sounds like a Friday night.
It was fantastic, because you needed something
to handle all the beers we were drinking, too.
So I was just like, I'm on the road, nothing counts.
And I came back like eight pounds heavier.
And then I started just eating.
Depression.
On the road is the worst.
Yeah.
So when I don't feel like exercising,
I just watch what I eat.
So I'll cook at home a lot.
Or like, on the road, I make a rule for myself.
Because I've traveled so much for work and shoots and stuff.
On the road I make a rule that two meals out of my three
everyday have to be salads.
I don't care what they serve at that restaurant that
looks amazing.
I have one meal that I can get what I want.
But the other two have to be salads.
Because it's too easy to be like, oh,
biscuits and gravy for breakfast,
and a burger for lunch, and then this big pasta dish for dinner.
And if you do that every day you're gonna be in trouble.
So my thing is-- so I've lost a ton of weight.
Yeah.
So, really fast, if you look back on old-school Source Fed
videos--
Yes.
You're like a different person.
Steve, dude.
You know which one is the one that
makes-- thank you very much.
The one that is crazy--
I have to do that.
Negative reinforcement.
*** you, bro!
No one will ever love you!
You'll never be good enough!
No!
So then you just imagine me saying
that while you're working out.
You're like, *** you, Phil.
And then I also hear you're the best-- around!
I don't know what this workout is, though.
It's this one.
I know which one you're talking about.
There's a machine for that.
It's the club.
And then you put on the steering wheel and it's just doing this.
And a one, and a two-- OK, go.
If you actually see my one-on-one with Watsky,
I like start to tear up.
Because I was like-- it looks like you just plopped down
a giant clay version of me in the seat.
Stephen!
So, George Watsky-- let me have a bagel.
That's not what it looks like.
You are so mean to yourself.
I know, I know.
For the most part, like, I never see it until after, right?
Nobody does.
So my buddy from back in the day, Shaycarl, right?
When I look back at his old videos
I'm like, that *** was massive.
And then he lost the weight.
And it weirded me out at first, because he
looked like a completely different person.
But it's like, oh my god, you're actually healthy.
And then I looked back and I didn't even
realize how unhealthy you were.
Yeah.
See, what do you do as a friend when you-- because you're
right.
You don't see it until there's a huge drastic change.
Like, I feel like I want to go over
to my friends who are kind of letting themselves go
and just be like, dude, look, like, I-- I changed my life,
and I feel so much better.
Like, they say it.
It's such a cliche.
But I do feel so much better.
I feel like I get better sleep, and I just--
You have more energy.
Yeah, exactly.
I mean, you were always an energetic dude.
But now you're like--
I know.
Which is so strange, too.
But all I did was-- it was zero exercise, actually.
And this is what I tell people.
All I did was I cut all my portions.
And, like Trisha said, like all week
if I just eat for lunch a salad-- breakfast I'll
have an apple, or a Pop-Tart, or you know-- it's crazy.
You can still eat ***.
Pop-Tarts are no good for you.
But see-- I know they're not good for you.
But that's what I'm saying.
You can still eat ***, as long
as you take those portions down.
Especially you were someone like me
that was throwing down bacon western cheeseburgers
with the large fries or the *** fried zucchini
and the big giant Dr. Pepper.
Yeah.
Do you still drink soda?
Ah, see-- every once in a while.
Every once in a while.
I can't stay away from it.
The thing is, if you treat it like a treat, right--
Exactly.
Totally.
It's a treat.
It's not at every meal.
And that's the thing.
I don't buy soda for my home anymore.
Every once in a while I'll get one at lunch.
But then I'll drink like a ***-ton of water
to balance it out.
And I bought the soda stream.
You know the soda stream?
Dude, I *** love it.
Lindsay likes it more than I do, though.
It's amazing.
Because I'll drink just my carbonated water, and that
gives me my soda fix.
It really does.
Yeah.
And you have a lot of those-- what
are those peach things you drink?
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
Oh, no, I love my orange Pellegrino.
Yeah, that's what I'm talking about.
Oh, San Pellegrino.
Real quick, I was gonna say, exercise-wise,
"Dance Dance Revolution" is a great, fun exercise that
doesn't feel like exercise.
Any of the Dance Central games.
But I like DDR better, because it makes you move faster
I feel like.
Is that Wii?
No, also, drumming. "Rock Band" drumming.
Like, if you drum enough, you work up a sweat, man.
That's good.
Yeah.
Like, beach and stuff-- I can't be in a gym
and stay running in the same place for 45 minutes
and feel like that's a workout.
It just doesn't work for me.
I know a lot of people it's a stress relief.
But yeah.
Beach, Frisbee-throwing, or football-throwing, or hiking--
I think what you're essentially saying is be active.
Yeah.
Doing fun stuff.
I think they say be active 15 to 30 minutes a day, minimum.
Which I think-- like, we need to break out the basketball hoop
and *** like that again.
Yeah, yeah.
I miss those.
I never joined in because of how big of a--
but now that I have, like, my energy, I'd probably join in.
No, when we had a million interns--
Yeah.
We would have full five-on-five games in the parking lot.
Well, guys, that has been our tangent-filled Table Talk
for today.
For sure.
I enjoyed it.
I don't care what you guys thought.
I don't care.
Because I had a good time.
That's what the internet's about.
Yeah.
Also we talked about health and fitness,
even though you're the only person that
looks really, really good.
Yep, yep.
Absolutely.
That was a thing that happened.
What?
What does that mean?
I think--
It means *** you, Trisha.
I think you guys are hot.
Hold on a second.
Between you and the two of us, I think
there's no competition though.
Obviously.
Can I say I think you guys are hot without HR?
I don't know.
Oh, we have HR now.
We have HR now.
I'm gonna take that and put it in my girnal.
Your girnal?
Is that your--
Today Trisha Hershberger said I was hot.
No, it would have to be girl journal.
That doesn't even make sense.
Your girl journal.
What girls say to him?
It's actually a super obscure--
A girl said something nice to me today.
I don't feel like putting a gun in my mouth.
She looked at me one second longer than was normal.
That actually sounds like my high school days.
It's OK.
When a girl looks at me I'm like,
she either recognizes me or I have *** on my face.
Literally ***.
*** on my face.
But guys, that has been it for Table Talk.
Of course, always recommend things using the hashtag
or going to Reddit.
My name is Philip DeFranco.
I'm Steve Zaragoza.
I'm Trisha Hershberger.
And, you know, sometimes we might actually
get to more than two of your things.
Don't ever call out.
Hey, if it rolls-- ***, I wish I had an end to that.
Was that a drug reference?
We roll with the punches.
Roll?
Yeah.
I'm not cool enough to be like, we rolled.
See, now, I'm not cool enough, because that was probably
a drug reference from, like, the 80s.
Nah, people say rolled.
OK.
I think it's, uh-- with-- a Molly.
I don't know what that even means.
Popping Mollies?
It's ecstasy, but not with, uh--
Not with the other stuff mixed in?
It's ecstasy dipped in--
It's the only other thing I want to try.
--batter and fried.
And then wrapped in bacon.
