- 2:44picture the the hottest girl you know that girl is now ugly yeah and not live but if you know me
- 2:55don't picture me and then now i'm ugly this is only if you don't already know me oh this is just
- 3:01like that it's like when you try to explain how to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich to like
- 3:05someone who doesn't know what any object is oh and you have to do like you give you like pull out
- 3:10the bread and then like where are they pulling it from right and the teacher's like what's bread
- 3:13and you're like oh come on yeah maybe just eat the damn thing and don't ask how it's made shut up
- 3:20that reminds me of being in elementary school no middle school is that um eighth grade is that
- 3:28middle school middle school is six seventh eighth i think oh that's a nice nugget of knowledge
- 3:34You're welcome.
- 3:35Thank you.
- 3:36I'm a middle school expert.
- 3:38Okay, that's on earth.
- 3:39I should have known it.
- 3:40I know.
- 3:41I was thinking how I had this teacher who, this is going to sound benign, but it really
- 3:48bugged me.
- 3:49Was that your word?
- 3:51Was benign your word?
- 3:52No.
- 3:53Okay.
- 3:54Before, I should explain, folks.
- 3:56We do a little something on the pod.
- 3:57Our producer gives each of us a secret word to say during the podcast.
- 4:02And if we can catch the other one saying their secret word, we get a prize that is yet to be determined.
- 4:10But if you're wrong.
- 4:11I die.
- 4:12No, no, no.
- 4:13Let's start lighter than that.
- 4:14Okay.
- 4:15All right.
- 4:15Okay.
- 4:16I'm going to choke her.
- 4:18Make choking noises.
- 4:21I'm done.
- 4:23Do better.
- 4:25I enjoyed that, actually.
- 4:26Okay.
- 4:28Here's Joe with today's secret words.
- 4:30jenna's secret word is honed francis's secret word is kidnappers back to the pod
- 4:40so i i thought benign might have been francis's word it's not uh so i am punished anyway so
- 4:50sorry is your word punished no i thought you were trying to slip it in my ass oh no i gotta choke
- 4:55you know no harder do better okay sorry go back to your story the teacher yes um she had exposed
- 5:08toes okay the way you said that made it sound like it was some kind of deformity or something
- 5:18or like some kind of like something but you're just me she wore like sandals that's exactly what
- 5:24i mean and like there was nothing wrong with her feet but i feel like when toes are in the room
- 5:32that's where your eye just goes goes to toes yeah and um it just i found it very distracting
- 5:41just my science teacher toes are in the room
- 5:47um my middle school i should just tell you that i was not um i was an odd child of course
- 5:55and i used to laugh uncontrollably um i would start laughing and i couldn't stop and i'd have
- 6:01to be like removed a lot in math because i would i didn't understand math so i would like zone out
- 6:07think of something funny laugh and be kicked out and um a girl in my class had pigtails braids
- 6:15and I remember like sliding pencils into her braids slowly so that she didn't know.
- 6:23And then she started like flicking her hair like casually.
- 6:27And so the pencils were like flying around.
- 6:29And then I lost, I just lost it.
- 6:32And my teacher like did the like Tommy boy like loud sigh, slow turn,
- 6:41and just like get out.
- 6:45so that's would be funny that would be funny for anyone i think yeah that's legitimate let me laugh
- 6:52yeah rhymes with math goes to toes
- 6:57sounds like you're italian talking about ghost toes
- 7:02ghost toes
- 7:05oh i like the idea that only a specific part of your body can haunt
- 7:14can come back and haunt you.
- 7:17The rest of you is still alive.
- 7:19Oh, so some...
- 7:19Okay, so...
- 7:21It's like if you get...
- 7:22What's the health thing
- 7:23when you have, like, frostbite or something?
- 7:26Oh.
- 7:27When your, like, toes are dead?
- 7:28Like, gangrene or something?
- 7:29Oh, yeah.
- 7:30And so you...
- 7:31Yeah.
- 7:32Now you've got...
- 7:32Coast to toes.
- 7:33Look out.
- 7:34I'm telling you.
- 7:35If you had to pick one part of your body,
- 7:37like, if you died,
- 7:38your whole body died.
- 7:40You mean when?
- 7:41Go on.
- 7:42No, if.
- 7:42science will catch up
- 7:44and you
- 7:47can only have one part of your body come
- 7:49back and you can't
- 7:51say your genitals I wouldn't
- 7:53I'm ready for those to go
- 7:54those have served their purpose
- 7:59they're done now
- 8:00those are needed in heaven what part
- 8:03of your body would you come back to be the
- 8:04haunting part
- 8:05well what are they capable of like people just see
- 8:09this disembodied yeah like whatever
- 8:11ghosts do in life
- 8:14now like
- 8:14if a ghost was in the room right now it'd be the same thing
- 8:18except it would be like just one part of the
- 8:20body. I guess I would pick my eyes.
- 8:22That's a good answer.
- 8:24You have nice eyes. I wasn't trying
- 8:26to please people. I was
- 8:28trying to unsettle them.
- 8:29That would be a good answer. As someone
- 8:32who will be haunted by
- 8:34your eyes. I'm happy
- 8:36about that. And what would you pick?
- 8:39I don't
- 8:40know um maybe fingers but not the palm of my hand just fingers do you think you would know it was
- 8:51fingers if they were just like floating yeah because they're not those yeah that still looks
- 9:00like a finger you wouldn't think it was like a worm or like a no my nails will still be painted
- 9:05Oh, yeah.
- 9:07My nails will still be painted.
- 9:08Oh, and I'd know those hands anywhere.
- 9:09For the audience at home Jenna has really nice gorgeous model hands For the audience at home Francis has an inflated view of my hands I don know why he likes my hands so much
- 9:21She's humble, too.
- 9:23I just remembered I had a dream the other night that my dad was drinking a Diet Coke,
- 9:28which he does not drink, and there was something in it,
- 9:32and I was like, what if it's a human finger?
- 9:34It's like, you could sue Coke and get so much money
- 9:37because there was like something in the can.
- 9:40And then I opened up the can and it was pills that were in the can.
- 9:44It wasn't a human finger.
- 9:45I feel like you could sue for that too.
- 9:46I know.
- 9:47And I was surprised that they hadn't disintegrated
- 9:49because they were like the capsule pills.
- 9:51And it was like in the Coke, it didn't disintegrate yet.
- 9:53See, Coke's safe.
- 9:55That's, yep.
- 9:57The Earth expert.
- 9:58Oh, this was a dream?
- 9:59This was a dream.
- 10:00Oh, I was, okay.
- 10:02Oh, no, otherwise you would have heard about this on the news.
- 10:04We already would have sued Coke.
- 10:06Would you have given me any money?
- 10:07Well, in this case, I guess it would be my dad.
- 10:09But if it was me, yeah, I'd keep you on retainer.
- 10:13I appreciate that.
- 10:14Like an entourage or something.
- 10:15I'd pay you to be my friend.
- 10:17Oh, my God.
- 10:17I would do it for free, but it's like a tip.
- 10:19Yeah, kind of.
- 10:21Thank you.
- 10:22Yeah.
- 10:24Friends like us.
- 10:24Friends like us.
- 10:27Let's move to our first segment.
- 10:32Let's open up the invention of the week.
- 10:35Oh, you're going to love this.
- 10:37inventions.
- 10:43The invention of the week
- 10:45is a...
- 10:49Maybe you won't like it.
- 10:51Okay, here's a different one.
- 10:53It is...
- 10:55How many times have you been
- 10:56out at a restaurant?
- 10:58Has this ever happened to you?
- 11:00Exactly.
- 11:00You know what I'm talking about.
- 11:02Where you're with your friends
- 11:04and it's a loud environment.
- 11:05You can't hear anybody.
- 11:06at least I can
- 11:08it's like god I wish I knew what they were saying
- 11:10I don't want to ask them to repeat themselves
- 11:11so instead you just smile
- 11:14and
- 11:14my invention is
- 11:18a
- 11:20it's a
- 11:22collar it's a metal
- 11:24telescoping collar so it goes
- 11:26around you like
- 11:27like old fashioned like Edwardian
- 11:30collar okay and
- 11:32you can telescope out
- 11:34the
- 11:36like wings and your friends all have one too and it keeps the conversation
- 11:43acoustically present stops it from like going out so other people can't overhear you
- 11:51you mean the main intention is that you hear you okay but then so but okay so acoustically
- 12:04you hear yourself
- 12:05you look like
- 12:10you're like
- 12:11how are you not getting this
- 12:12you idiot
- 12:14I said a warden collar
- 12:16and it keeps the present
- 12:18conversation down
- 12:19so you do get it
- 12:20yeah it keeps the conversation
- 12:22in your ring of friendship
- 12:24so everyone's
- 12:25everyone's wearing like a dog
- 12:27neck collar
- 12:29your words
- 12:29and please don't poison those
- 12:31with dog collar
- 12:32alright
- 12:33It's all that people need to hear and they're not going to buy it.
- 12:35No, Edwardian acoustic collar.
- 12:38Okay.
- 12:39And so it makes it...
- 12:41So does it block...
- 12:43It doesn't block out the outside noise.
- 12:45In a way it does because by amplifying the conversation happening around you,
- 12:49it means that you're listening to the other stuff less.
- 12:52All right.
- 12:54So I think you've invented walls.
- 12:57I think the walls that you wear.
- 13:00I find that reductive.
- 13:01But yeah, but it would help.
- 13:05But does it help stop other people from listening to your conversations?
- 13:10I feel like that's really important to you.
- 13:12Well, I mean, that's kind of more that's more important, I think, than because.
- 13:19OK, if we're at the point where a group of friends is all deliberately wearing Edwardian
- 13:28callers specifically so they can hear each other better wouldn't then couldn't you just then be
- 13:34like let's all just talk a little louder i don't know if i feel comfortable asking that you would
- 13:42be comfortable asking that everyone wear an eduardian color don't think of it as something
- 13:46you bring from home think of it as something the bar has that you can borrow okay like a booster
- 13:53seat okay or parmesan cheese you give back the parmesan cheese you don't have to
- 14:01anyway um stew on it uh okay what is this invention called hear me roar
- 14:11i would buy it for the name alone uh but i feel like okay so you're saying to be clear because it
- 14:29seems like you're getting angry at me for asking this you don't want it to stop other people from
- 14:34hearing you you just want it so that your friends hear you we can have a upgrade model
- 14:44we're on the back of the collar it's putting out
- 14:47you know yeah like a frequency so it does obscure if that's something that would help you invest
- 14:57if that helps you
- 15:00uh yeah because again if everyone's just wearing these things why not just be a little bit louder
- 15:11the reason to not be a little bit louder is because you don't want other people to overhear
- 15:14you well the the original idea for this was different but because it was so similar to
- 15:21last week's invention i didn't want to say it but it was basically a table umbrella
- 15:26you know you put it in the middle of the table and you open it up and it's like a little umbrella
- 15:34around the whole table and it keeps the conversation in but i like that actually
- 15:38i have a new name okay how do you speak at night
- 15:44oh somehow better than hear me roar
- 15:52I feel like you really
- 15:56honed your naming
- 15:58craft. Good job.
- 16:00Thank you. Sugar crush.
- 16:05Was your word craft?
- 16:07It was not
- 16:08Oh, nice try.
- 16:10It was not my word.
- 16:12Do you want to make a slapping noise?
- 16:17Do better.
- 16:18Okay.
- 16:20I don't know if this is
- 16:21an invest for me i'm gonna be honest if if you add if you add some kind of noise canceling thing
- 16:27so that other people can't hear you i'm on board but i know that bastardizes your original invention
- 16:33that's not what you wanted that's not your vision okay so you're saying i brought that to you that's
- 16:39my shark take and i don't have it's not on that one you're saying no and i'm going home to cry
- 16:49myself to sleep yes yeah so it's up to you are you a purist do you keep the vision i'm a money man
- 16:57okay all right well then if you add that feature i'll invest and our audience can check it out on
- 17:02our website friendslikeuspod.com forward slash how do you sleep at night how do you speak
- 17:10my bad i went right to the pun source oh no you pulled back the curtain on how the joke was made
- 17:19burn back the collar burn back the collar wow
- 17:23all right i think it might be time to close the invention of the week all right
- 17:31uh okay let's move on to our next segment uh seance
- 17:40She blinded me with seance.
- 17:47Ooh.

- 22:02I know
- 22:03okay
- 22:04well as long as you're on board
- 22:05yeah
- 22:06I tweeted her once
- 22:07but a lot of stuff
- 22:08was going on politically
- 22:08and she ignored me
- 22:10that's probably the only reason
- 22:11yeah
- 22:12um he was in that movie what else was he in oh um brown hair brown hair
- 22:21no i just don't know his name um okay it's fine well he said he wasn't hot i was thinking maybe
- 22:27john ritter but john ritter is attractive if you're thinking of robin williams who's in the
- 22:35movie nine months yes robin williams already i wasn't thinking no it's the guy with the glasses
- 22:39the guy who beats up the Barney lookalike
- 22:41death smoochie
- 22:44Tom Arnold

- 23:01into the future estate of Tom Arnold
- 23:03I apologize and I think he's attractive too
- 23:06and thank you for leaving us all your money
- 23:07of course
- 23:09I think everyone's hot actually
- 23:11so this is tough for me
- 23:12wasn't it you that asked the question?
- 23:19you asked a question that doesn't
- 23:21narrow it down at all
- 23:23I say
- 23:26let's wrap this up
- 23:28let's get three more questions and then we each have a guest
- 23:30okay but now I'm feeling really inadequate
- 23:32with my questions
- 23:33they're an actor, a comedic
- 23:38actor he died in the 21st century no i not a comedic actor you said was he is he funny and i
- 23:44said yes oh i'd like to clarify the nuance we're not this the nuance of the seance is he a dramatic
- 23:53actor yes did he die after the age of 50 yes
- 24:00we always lose the old ones
- 24:06I know
- 24:08they died so old
- 24:10he was too old
- 24:13too old to die
- 24:15was it Sean Connery
- 24:18ooh
- 24:19so it wasn't Sean Connery
- 24:22it wasn't anyone else we guessed
- 24:23wasn't known for being hot
- 24:27he was funny
- 24:28I almost just said Ted Danson.
- 24:30He's alive right now.
- 24:31I know.
- 24:31I'm so sorry.
- 24:32Ted, I know you're listening, and I apologize.
- 24:34I didn't mean it.
- 24:35I just thought of a...
- 24:36But you were also a comedic actor, so that was just stupid on multiple levels by me.
- 24:40Francis, make a slap noise.
- 24:44Do better.
- 24:47Sugar crush.
- 24:48Okay, so let's each make a guess, and then whoever's closer gets the point.
- 24:53However Joe defines closer.
- 24:55I will say Sean Connery is a closer guest than any of your prior guesses.
- 25:00Okay.
- 25:01I can't picture anyone ever dying.
- 25:03See, what's funny is in real life, not in seance when I'm on the spot,
- 25:09I assume everyone's dead.
- 25:11I'm like, didn't they die?
- 25:13But now it's like, no, they're all alive.
- 25:15I can't remember anyone dying.
- 25:17I know who it is.
- 25:20What is James Gandolfini?
- 25:21that oh that's his get okay i'm not gonna say i want to show you guys uh
- 25:28tony sirico it's tony sir
- 25:32oh
- 25:33james gandalfini is six feet tall oh two inches walnuts oh my god rest in peace wow yeah oh my
- 25:43god wow oh my god and ghost of toes because the does italian oh full circle that was fun for us
- 25:50I have a feeling not a great listen.
- 25:54Whatever.
- 25:55As long as Tom and Ted are still listening, which I know they are.
- 25:59Tom Arnold, Ted Danson, thank you for listening to Seance.
- 26:05All right, let's move on to the main event.
- 26:08The big question.
- 26:11The question is very big.
- 26:16Oh, the question.
- 26:17I have it for you.
- 26:18Sorry.
- 26:18Francis, do you have a big question for me?
- 26:20Huge question.
- 26:21All right, I'm ready.
- 26:22Yeah.
- 26:24The question is, let's say you have a genie, and the genie can grant you wishes.
- 26:29Okay.
- 26:29Now, no loopholes, okay?
- 26:32You can't wish for a million wishes or anything like that.
- 26:33Right, and once you hear the catch, you can't wish to undo it.
- 26:35Nothing like that.
- 26:36Okay.
- 26:37If every time you made a wish, you lost a quarter of an inch off all of your fingers, including the thumbs, how many wishes would you make?
- 26:48A quarter of an inch.
- 26:50Including your thumbs.
- 26:52Yeah, it's not good.
- 26:54I mean, I would only get four.
- 26:59I would probably get six wishes max without losing a thumb completely.
- 27:04But then also, who wants that last quarter inch of thumb?
- 27:09Someone who doesn't have it.
- 27:12Well, no, I mean, I think I'd rather be completely thumbless than have a thumb.
- 27:15I am on that way, too.
- 27:16It's all or nothing with me.
- 27:17Okay.
- 27:18Okay, so not like lose a finger for every wish.
- 27:22They just keep getting smaller.
- 27:23All of your fingers get shorter.
- 27:25Yeah.
- 27:26Turning your arms into bats.
- 27:28How much time do I have to make?
- 27:33Yes.
- 27:35What was the question?
- 27:37Sorry.
- 27:38Turning your arms into bats.
- 27:40So, close to toes.
- 27:45How much time do I have to make the wishes like is it throughout my whole life yeah yeah it not like I don have to come up it not like I out of work okay so I can really think about the wishes
- 27:54yeah rub the lamp I'm gonna come back later
- 27:56okay
- 27:56but no loopholes
- 27:57what do you mean by a loophole now
- 27:59like
- 28:00like you can't get out of the finger thing
- 28:01oh okay
- 28:01so no matter what that's happening
- 28:03once you say
- 28:04Jeannie I officially declare a wish
- 28:06you don't even have to say it like that
- 28:07but yeah
- 28:08okay
- 28:08well I don't want to accidentally activate a wish
- 28:10but use his name
- 28:10Gordon
- 28:12stop calling me genie i'm using an official wish right now i don't want to accidentally activate a
- 28:19wish um because then i'm what if like i'm like god i wish this restaurant had jalapeno poppers
- 28:27and then it's like well quarter of my fingers or quarter inch my fingers is gone um not a bad wish
- 28:32i honestly don't even know why i said that i've never had all we should get those you've never
- 28:36had them never had a jalapeno popper close the laptop genie i wish for jalapeno poppers
- 28:41What happened to your hands?
- 28:43Oh, Gordon, no, that wasn't a real wish.
- 28:46Ghost of fingers.
- 28:49And it wouldn't be like a situation with needful things like that.
- 28:58Or like the Rick and Morty episode when Satan has the shop that he'll sell you anything.
- 29:05but it's like oh yeah you can speak any language but you live in a box for the rest of your life
- 29:14no no you're not getting bedazzled here you're these are nice yes clean wishes they just come
- 29:19at a very high cost okay so it's not there's i don't have to like properly phrase it just so
- 29:25to avoid any kind of like trickery so i could just like truly think about what do i really wish for
- 29:31how many wishes would I make.
- 29:34I'm worried that once I made one wish and it came true,
- 29:37I'd become addicted to wishes.
- 29:39Oh, yeah, until you try tying your shoes.
- 29:43Velcro, baby.
- 29:45Yeah, until your husband asks you to pinch something and you can't.
- 29:48Damn, that happens all the time.
- 29:52Well, I guess you'd still...
- 29:52I didn't clarify.
- 29:54Maybe I should say your fingers are getting shorter.
- 29:55You're not losing...
- 29:56Like, you still have tips of your fingers.
- 29:58You're not losing functionality.
- 29:59So it's like cutting from the middle.
- 30:01Your hands are almost getting smaller.
- 30:02They're getting smaller.
- 30:03Yeah, cutting from the middle.
- 30:03I like that.
- 30:05Yeah.
- 30:06So your palms stay the same size?
- 30:08Yeah, it's just like little tiny finger kidnappers.
- 30:11Okay.
- 30:15I'd probably make two, maybe three at the most.
- 30:24Your hands would be so cute.
- 30:28I had three wishes.
- 30:29oh my god teddy fingers
- 30:32I would want your hands in every picture
- 30:35oh Dan would want it too
- 30:39I don't know what that means
- 30:42you know the optics
- 30:44okay so
- 30:48alright
- 30:49this episode
- 30:59brought to you by
- 31:01who's sponsoring us?
- 31:04Halliburton.
- 31:06Marie Callender's, the restaurant.
- 31:09Who's in the mood for pie?
- 31:11Marie Callender's.
- 31:13Rocco's real world or whatever.
- 31:15Rocco's modern life.
- 31:16Rocco's modern life.
- 31:18Rocco's real world?
- 31:21Oh, what if Rocco was on the real world?
- 31:24That MTV TV show.
- 31:26I think as
- 31:27as far as like characters go who are animated
- 31:30he actually has some riz
- 31:32Rocco like I think Rocco's like
- 31:37he'd do okay
- 31:38he could ask me out on a cartoon date
- 31:40I also like like
- 31:42the idea of him just like
- 31:44losing his shit because there's one
- 31:47housemate that like won't do dishes
- 31:49or something like
- 31:50like you know like
- 31:52because in the real world they would just like
- 31:55they'd all like hate each other
- 31:56I was thinking of the cartoon.
- 31:57I'm like, I don't remember that episode.
- 31:58I know.
- 31:58Yeah.
- 31:59No, like in the real world house.
- 32:01Yeah.
- 32:01And he's actually like a bro.
- 32:03And I don't like him anymore.
- 32:05Yeah.
- 32:05He goes on the challenge.
- 32:07Well, the audience probably doesn't know this about me.
- 32:08I'm a total softy lover boy.
- 32:13Yep.
- 32:14Not into games.
- 32:18Finds everyone attractive.
- 32:19Everyone's hot and alive to me.
- 32:23Tiny fingers are your thing.
- 32:24come as you are okay so that's my answer i'd probably i don't know three wishes unless i
- 32:33got addicted to the wishes well just make sure one of them is someone to grab things for you
- 32:39yeah that would be my last wish yeah my final wish all right how many would you do
- 32:44um my hands are small enough one max whoa yeah and when i say small i mean huge
- 32:52but yeah i think i could do one one wish and i would probably just be like give me a lot of money
- 32:58give me so much money it doesn't matter my hands look weird now
- 33:01okay so by which you you mean that doesn't matter that my hands look weird now
- 33:09so like you could just pay people to be your friend yeah yeah i think i would put a number
- 33:15on it i think i would say i want a hundred billion dollars after taxes like the genies
- 33:22the government still gets their cut it comes with a letter from the irs that says we don't want
- 33:27anything we like this for you this is actually a gift and not in the traditional sense where you
- 33:37know something no no uh uncle sam missed all those birthdays all right so just yeah i feel
- 33:44with a lot of money you could make anything happen so you can make anything happen with a lot of
- 33:49money yeah this episode's brought to you by money give us some uh oh all right i think that's uh
- 33:59that answers the big question of the week i'd at most do three maybe two you do one yeah because
- 34:08you want to keep your hands i'm not greedy i just want 100 i just want all the money in all the world
- 34:13the big question all right folks well uh let us know what you'd do if you had a genie that cut a
- 34:21quarter inch of your fingers off we want to hear from you you know what really sucks about this
- 34:25huh everyone has different size hands so some people can get away with like a piano player
- 34:29could be like i don't care 10 because they have super long fingers well then they wouldn't be
- 34:34able to play the piano anymore a small price to pay yeah but also your fingers are all different
- 34:41sizes too so at some point you're gonna run out of at some point it's just like well i only have
- 34:46the middle finger left anyway like i'll just keep going in this world hey oh nobody drive near
- 34:53francis you can see a stubby middle finger speaking of that i mentioned to my therapist
- 34:59that i had road rage one time yeah and every time after that she asked about my road rage i'm like
- 35:04it was supposed to be something we laughed at yeah like it wasn't real it was just like focused
- 35:09on the word rage.
- 35:10Yeah.
- 35:11And I came in,
- 35:11she's like,

- 35:37And you were close
- 35:38when you guessed.
- 35:38You were close to my word when you guessed.
- 35:41Because you guessed the word was craft.
- 35:44And it wasn't.
- 35:46It was honed.
- 35:48I said you've really honed.
- 35:51Damn.
- 35:52Yeah.
- 35:53Wow.

- 36:00Kidnappers.
- 36:01I didn't know how I was going to get it in there.
- 36:04I forgot what you said.
- 36:05Oh, really?
- 36:06I remember you said, just imagine little kidnappers taking a quarter.
- 36:21What does it say about, Francis, what does it say about you that that didn't raise any
- 36:27reflex at all?
- 36:28Yeah, this is how Francis speaks.
- 36:30I like to think I'm just a really cool customer.
- 36:33Yeah.
