this was a big hit this is a big hit i'm glad to see it i i you know it's it's something i feel to be true i at first was not sure that this would be like the right thing for a subway take because i know it can be kind of specific but i ran two by you if you remember one of them was this one which is sort of the first one that came to mind because i'm 40 you know i grew up
in the 90s under the influence of all kinds of toxic media. And, you know, now I've like gone to therapy. I went through the pandemic, right? And I sort of like introspected, worked on myself, whatever, started exercising. I feel like a lot of people have been on that journey. And if you're a man,
you know, some of us come to this realization sort of that our habits are part of like this really toxic pattern. You know what I mean? That goes back many generations. And the other one was we should make farting socially acceptable so we can deal with it as a society. And you were like, that one's already been done.
Yeah, yeah.
Oh, yeah? Do you remember who did it?
Yeah, yeah. Farting is a real, like, it's a bummer. You know what I mean? It's the constant, like, you know, it's universal, and it'll never go away. If you're married to someone, if you spend a lot of time with someone, you're going to smell their fart eventually, right? But, I mean, you know, I think that... You know, just to elaborate on the take that I didn't end up doing. Right.
If we accept it as a society, say like, look, this this shit is happening. Right. And we need to come up with socially acceptable products or, you know, like products. Yeah.
Can you imagine the hell of that bag, like, accidentally ripping open? Leaking. Leaking. It's like cat litter. OK, so I use a thing called a litter genie. We're also a two cat household as you are. And there's a thing called the litter genie. You scoop the poop and it keeps the smell off. But like sometimes the bag runs out and then you're like, why does it smell like?
And one of our cats, Frank, his shits are like he doesn't cover them because he's such a. Oh, no, he's a boy. He's a savage. Right. And they're the stinkiest poops. So, you know, and the thing is, look, there is a, we've accepted that that's a part of life here. And so we came up with a solution and it's a literal fart bag for your cat shit and piss, right?
And it's like, you know, you figure it out, right? You're like, it's happening. It's a bummer, but it's happening. Let's deal with it, right? Same thing with farts.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yo, mad respect. There was the Portlandia sketch about mad respect. These are the things I respect. You know, about the fart patio, which I think is if you eat a lot of vegan food or whatever, which I feel like people do, right? There's a patio you can go. I've actually never seen the sketch, but my wife told me about it.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yes. But, but, but, but I, I do think, yes, I ran it by, you know, my wife, I ran it by, admittedly, I also ran it by the deli boys writers. Okay. I had, I had an advantage that I had a few other subway takes guests have, which is I have a writer's room, the deli boys writers room, very powerful writer's room. Uh, and I just texted the chain and was like, Hey guys, uh,
you know what do you think of these takes and and there was a bunch of people um you know specifically women seemed to respond and they were like that's a good take right and that it's meaning that it would open up interesting conversation i think that there's a degree of like Fear I had of sounding like, you know, whatever, like douchebag a little bit, right? With a take like that.
But I literally am like, I'm not even trying to denigrate being a man or whatever. Like, I think it's important to...
represent and say oh i can be a man and still be admit my faults or whatever right um without trying to sound like you're like lecturing you know what i mean in a sense but i i think that you are a very talented host and you know specifically in watching i've watched a lot i've always watched the show but i've like re-watched a lot more in succession since i was on right
And I got to say that you really do hold the tone of the show in your pattern of conversation. Oh, thanks, man.
Dude, I literally, I would laugh, but I literally spent like a decade of my career trying to do exactly that.
I was horizontal, yes.
But back then, like, you know, horizontal ain't shit compared to vertical. Come on, man. Look at the amount of people who watch vertical.
