28.899 - 51.248 Frank Alvarez

There's actually a movie that just came out a couple weeks ago that it's like the origin of Scar and Mufasa. Mufasa was adopted by Scar's family, but his name isn't Scar. It's something else. And then he just called him Scar, like a slur. Fucking Mufasa. Oh, so then it stuck? I guess so. He was like, oh, you got a scar. Scar. Bitch. Nerd. Yeah, basically.

51.268 - 56.993 Frank Alvarez

It's like, now we're just going to call you that. Yeah. It's a cool name, though. I got to admit. I always wanted a scar when I was younger.

57.053 - 57.653 Joey

Open my eye.

0

57.993 - 76.489 Frank Alvarez

I mean, people bring it up all the time. I didn't think it was going to become that popular of a quote from our show, but my legs are mostly scars. Right, yeah. I do have a scar on my eyebrow. You do, don't you? Yeah, I do. I believe it's this one right around like right here. Yeah, I can see it. And it's from when I was a baby. Not a baby.

76.509 - 100.586 Frank Alvarez

I was like a toddler and I ran into the wall, like the corner of the wall and cut me up. Dumbass. You know what's funny is I made a vow to myself on the way here. Like, I am going to open the show. And be nice. And be very nice and joyous and calm and happy. I feel like we're doing that, though. You just called me a dumbass. Yeah, but, like, we weren't yelling.

Chapter 2: How did Frank get his eyebrow scar?

101.486 - 108.032 Frank Alvarez

So if I don't yell my insults at you, it's not mean? I mean, it's better. It's a step forward for sure. You're a white devil.

0

108.132 - 117.459 Joey

Okay, you were going to say fish. You have a gold flake. Oh, this fucking... The other way, other way, other way. Other cheek. Is it gone? Is it gone? Look at me, look at me. Move your face.

0

117.519 - 140.935 Frank Alvarez

Oh, you have one on your face. No, I don't. Where is it? You have one right here. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Frankie gave me this fucking wrapping paper that has dust all over it. My beautiful wife. She likes pixie dust. She knows. She knows, like, I hate glitter. So after she, and I asked, I was like, did you wrap my gifts in this? She's like, yeah. And I was like, thank you. Big mistake, though.

0

141.116 - 165.06 Frank Alvarez

Me and Frank exchanged Christmas gifts in the parking lot. Yeah, like a drug deal. It was like, all right, put this in your trunk. Put it in my trunk. It's so weird. Why do we do that? Becca, we made and we got and made like a cute little thing for you and also for Greg and Brittany. And I pick it up and it falls out the bottom and just falls onto the ground. Porcelain chipped it hard.

0

165.22 - 183.421 Frank Alvarez

But it's just a chip. Chip. Chip. Chip. And it's underneath. Yeah, who cares? Color it in. Honestly, bitch, color it in. It adds some, like, flavor. I don't know if coloring it in is a good idea because then if they use it to bake, then, like, the fumes of whatever you're coloring. Is that a baking dish? Yeah, they're baking safe. Ceramic, babe. Yeah, I didn't know that. Well, I gave you.

183.461 - 202.703 Frank Alvarez

You can bake in that shit. Yeah, but what would I bake in it? Oh, bread, maybe. I mean, I'm not baking bread, dude. What am I, Betty Crocker? I mean, it's 2025. You have the opportunity. The opportunities are endless. You can do anything you want. You can pick up a new hobby tomorrow, and knowing you, be very good at it within 10 years.

206.517 - 232.519 Frank Alvarez

yeah no but like dude maybe this is the year of joey bread bowl boy i don't joey the bread bread boy okay see see we're highlighting why not the weakness that you have this is the thing that coming up with name this is the this is the thing that big celebrities are doing now is they're getting into like food establishments bradley cooper just opened a philly cheesesteak place that bread looked exceptional the cheesesteak

232.659 - 247.034 Frank Alvarez

That looked okay. It did. It didn't look that great. I was like, this could use more cheese. Yeah. Less steak, more cheese. Yeah, there's a lot of steak. But... This could be the year of Joey getting into the venture of restaurants. Of breads? Restaurateur.

Chapter 3: What are some funny gift exchange stories?

247.835 - 248.375 Joey

I don't think so.

0

248.395 - 270.91 Frank Alvarez

Joey the bread boy. Where it's a restaurant, it's just bread? Ooh, bakery. I'll tell you what. Every day, every dish. Those are called bakeries, Joe. Every dish has bread infused in some capacity. How about this? No plates, only bread bowls. I don't give a fuck what we serve. Listen, yes. Cider fries? Bread bowl. It would be a little expensive, though, to have that many bread bowls.

0

271.03 - 271.891 Frank Alvarez

Is bread expensive?

0

272.331 - 295.165 Frank Alvarez

uh no no but like for the person to like consume it like the idea of getting a whole loaf of bread is crazy and you'd be in you'd be going up against panera and you and panera that's a fight you don't know if you'll win yeah no i mean i i've definitely lost before i had it one time i've only had panera one time diarrhea didn't go back swear to god i thought i was like can i ask you a

0

299.995 - 305.697 Frank Alvarez

Food establishments have given you diarrhea. I don't even know how to answer that. This was over 10 years ago.

306.037 - 306.757 Joey

It wasn't 10 years ago.

Chapter 4: Why is Joey interested in starting a bread-based restaurant?

306.777 - 315.119 Frank Alvarez

It doesn't matter. I used to crush Panera, and I will tomorrow if I wanted to, bitch. I don't know. Someone was asking me that, and I feel like this has gotten blown out of proportion.

0

315.179 - 318.82 Joey

I feel like you always get food poisoning. I get food poisoning once every three years.

0

319.161 - 337.585 Frank Alvarez

Joey, I have gotten food poisoning zero times in my entire life. I'm pretty adventurous. With food? You didn't get it from a fucking cupboard under the stairs restaurant. You went to a jazz club and got a burger, Joey. Yeah. That's not adventure.

0

337.625 - 347.372 Joey

Well, I'm saying adventurous in the sense of I probably am at a higher risk of getting food poisoning if I'm going out to restaurants.

0

347.392 - 354.697 Frank Alvarez

But you're going to well-regarded restaurants that— People make mistakes. People do make mistakes, but they don't make mistakes at that level. Clearly.

355.637 - 361.502 Joey

Well, that place is also like a nice place that I went to. There was an E. coli outbreak. You know, don't eat the fucking carrots and stuff.

361.522 - 386.884 Frank Alvarez

Maybe that's what it was. Maybe it was E. coli. I think it was E. coli. So you got coli'd. I got coli'd in my E. Yeah. Yeah. That's crazy. But yeah, I think. Hear me out. You know I'm in the business of really having great ideas lately. I don't know that, but go ahead. You, just you, Greg, when Greg hears this, he's going to be fully on board. Just get into being a restaurateur.

387.224 - 416.163 Frank Alvarez

You have the hot sauces. Right. One of them has already been released, but one of them, I don't know when the release for that one is officially. Yeah, me neither. But you have your own line of hot sauces. You have a keen eye to become a sommelier. You're on your way, baby steps. You could be the hot sauce provider, sommelier, and bread boy for Joe's big bread boy business.

419.464 - 437.721 Frank Alvarez

I mean, the ideas are just unbelievable coming out of you over there. And I really appreciate the faith that you have in me, but that's not going to happen. I mean, why not? Because why? Restaurants are a really difficult avenue to get into in terms of making money.

Chapter 5: What is the connection between Limp Bizkit and wrestling?

988.436 - 1011.854 Frank Alvarez

No, Roland. Roland. I have a very strong connection to the song Roland by Limp Bizkit, mainly because of The Undertaker. That was The Undertaker's theme song for, oh man, what seems like the better part of two, three years. So anytime The Undertaker came out. I heard Roland, and it was sick. And don't even fuck with me.

0

1012.235 - 1035.7 Frank Alvarez

Listen, I know there's jokes about Limp Bizkit and their audience and kind of who they were at that time of their popularity. But listen to that song and tell me it doesn't fucking smoke your shit. You know what I'm saying? Move in or move out. Hands up or hands down. Back up. Back up. Because there's a dance to it, which I remember from the video. Dude, you got to see. I forgot.

0

1035.78 - 1039.924 Frank Alvarez

I think it was a wedding that this song came on. Why was it not at a wedding?

0

1040.284 - 1055.635 Joey

No, but I don't know if it was a wedding, but it was a party that I was at with you where it was like there was a lot of people around on a dance floor. And this song comes on, and you should have seen the look in Frankie's eyes. I legitimately got started to get scared. And then when the chorus hits, and it's like, move in and move out.

0

1055.675 - 1077.174 Frank Alvarez

This kid's throwing his body around. And then he's like, back up, back up. And he's pushing people out of the way. And I'm like, yo, we need to get out of here before Frankie flips out. Well, the spirit of Fred Durst. When inside of me... You're the biscuit. I am the limpest biscuit you can find, dude. Dude, he's the limpest biscuit. I am a limp biscuit. Yeah, you are. Bizkit, by the way.

Chapter 6: What does 'Nookie' mean in Limp Bizkit's song?

1077.194 - 1099.944 Frank Alvarez

Yeah, not biscuit. Not biscuit. Bizkit. Although I would love a biscuit. Ooh, a very limp one, meaning a very buttery. Soft. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But... When that song comes on, you need to move in and move out. Your hands up and hands down. And then back up. You need to fucking make some space. Make some space. And then roll and roll and roll and roll. There's only one way to go.

0

1100.765 - 1129.737 Frank Alvarez

To this day, I am not even kidding when I say this. One of the greatest pieces of produced media I've ever seen is the WrestleMania 17 promo package between The Rock and Stone Cold. Over the Song My Way by Limp Bizkit. I'm going to do things my way. Yeah, that's exceptional. Check out my melody. You don't remember that part? I thought you were speaking a different language.

0

1129.757 - 1151.929 Frank Alvarez

Stone Cold and The Rock are talking, and Stone Cold's like, it's my title. You ain't having it. And The Rock is like, I will do anything. And then finally they start punching, and it's just like, this time I'm going to let it all come out. And then with the beat, they're hitting stunners and rock puns. I'm so excited. He loves Limp Bizkit. Dude, do me a favor. Jokes aside.

0

1151.989 - 1159.076 Frank Alvarez

Everyone here, go fucking watch that. I know what you're talking about. And it is so good. And it's like five minutes long.

0

1159.096 - 1162.079 Joey

Is 17 the one that we used to go to David's house and watch all the time?

1162.099 - 1167.245 Frank Alvarez

Yes. You'd watch it at my house before school with the TLC man. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, dude. You know?

1167.805 - 1168.266 Joey

It's a good one.

1168.526 - 1173.871 Frank Alvarez

All those wrestling pay-per-views, like the songs that were associated with them, were unbelievable.

1174.211 - 1194.269 Joey

I watched WrestleMania 17 probably like six years ago. Yeah. When I was in Long Island City. Did you hear it? Yeah. When I was in Long Island City, I legit went on the WWE app and made an account just so I could watch that whole pay-per-view.

Chapter 7: How does Frank feel about his love for Limp Bizkit?

1212.105 - 1213.466 Frank Alvarez

You don't remember that at all? Oh, man.

0

1213.646 - 1214.647 Joey

TLC, I remember.

0

1214.667 - 1236.182 Frank Alvarez

TLC. Then you had Chyna versus Ivory for the women's title. Chyna versus Ivory. You had The Undertaker and Triple H in a match. Oh, man. No, I know. It's crazy. Then you had Stone Cold and The Rock. We had Stone Cold and The Rock. But then you also had Vince versus Shane McMahon. Do you remember the whole storyline? He kicked him in the face?

0

1236.342 - 1253.627 Frank Alvarez

Well, he did the coast-to-coast, but then the whole storyline where fucking Linda McMahon was like, A vegetable, basically. And, like, Vince was making out and, like, sucking on Trish Stratus' titties in front of her and shit. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then she stood up and kicked him in the nuts and the place went apeshit. I remember that. Do you know what I'm saying? What a pay-per-view.

0

1253.827 - 1277.538 Frank Alvarez

What a time to be alive. Did you think there was going to be five minutes of WrestleMania 17 on this episode? I bet you didn't. And whatever this is going to add to the Limp Bizkit talk, the song is about an old girlfriend of Fred Durst's who betrayed him. We've all been there. Classic story. Hey, Mr. Durst. We've all been there. We've all been betrayed. Okay?

1277.638 - 1299.706 Frank Alvarez

One day you think you're doing it all for the nookie, and then you get betrayed. And then suddenly it's all for the cookie. And shove it up your ass. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Are you still close to the Durst family? Or that was just Robert Durst? When... The serial killer? Yeah, yeah. When Durst was getting his career started in Los Angeles, he was sending money home to his girlfriend to pay the bills.

1299.826 - 1328.722 Frank Alvarez

Instead, she used the money to treat her and another man to drugs in hotel rooms. That sounds crazy. In this song, Durst explains that he knew what was going on, but stayed with her for the sex. That's the nookie. He's like, I did it for the nookie. Wow. I mean, can I say this? No, he didn't. No one would make that decision. I mean, kind of. He was writing from a place of pain and anguish.

1328.742 - 1355.479 Frank Alvarez

But Mr. Biscuit. Betrayal. You could find another woman in that Los Angeles. I'm sure he had access to other nookies. I don't mean to use that as a terminology to just completely dehumanize women to just being a nookie. A nookie. You did. No, no. Mr. Durst did. Okay? We're reporting. Frederick Durst. You know he's like a movie director now? Is he? Yeah. He's got the whole white beard look.

1355.539 - 1386.025 Frank Alvarez

It looks cool. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Hey, man. Maybe it's time to throw on some Creed, Limp Bizkit, Puddle of Mud. Just throw them on. Who are you? Just who are you? Let the body sit the floor. Let the body sit the floor. Let the body sit the... Dude, it still fucking hits. Yeah, you love that. Yeah. I didn't hate that song either, but... You shouldn't. Yeah. You know what?

Chapter 8: What challenges do surgeons face according to the conversation?

1987.66 - 1999.826 Frank Alvarez

Because there are mouth jackers, Joey. There are. That's like mouth jacks. You seem very aware of the jack mouthers. Because I have eyes that have seen past my own human experiences, Joey. Maybe that's something you should understand.

0

2000.206 - 2007.693 Joey

Yeah, no, it's fine. It happened to someone else, a friend of mine. You were about to say you got jacked.

0

2007.853 - 2008.173 Frank Alvarez

No.

0

2008.554 - 2027.055 Joey

We have sponsors, the first one being, hello, how you doing, Stitch Fix. Stitch Fix, you know, it's a great invention, okay? Because if you're someone like me, I don't like going into the store to go shopping, honestly.

0

2027.075 - 2044.022 Joey

I like doing online shopping. I also like having, like, two or three people around. I like second and third opinions or something like that. If you're that type of shopper, then Stitch Fix is for you because – also, if you're not, it's still for you because – You go into their website, and you fill out their style quiz.

You tell them your size, style, your budget preference, what kind of clothes you wear, what kind of things you don't wear, what kind of fit you like, and stuff like that. And a shopper will just kind of get to it and pick a bunch of stuff from you, and they'll send it to your house. And you only pay for the stuff that you keep.

2061.974 - 2079.624 Joey

So if you get everything and you're like, wow, all this stuff is cool, you keep the whole box. If you're like, all right, well, I like this and this, but I don't like that, I'm going to send that back. Free returns every time, all right? So it's a great way to keep your wardrobe nice and fresh. And lovely, okay? So Stitch Fix makes style easy.
