Let's have a boundaries conversation.
Oh, God.
Before we proceed.
I prefer physical touch. Me too. I'm loud in that way. Do you have a place here? No, I just came for this. Why are you in that sweet Panamera? I wanted one and I never got it. So I just rented it.
Oh, you rented it? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Great move. I definitely approve of that. Thank you very much.
Are you going to buy one now?
Let me buy you one. Yes, Dax, please. Dax will buy you one. If this goes to 15 million views, I'll buy you one.
I like that. This is a cool little room you got here.
Thank you. I got to tell you something, right? You got to be warned for something.
Okay.
I made my daughter promise she would not come before the interview, but she was in her bedroom watching you get out of the car. And she said, he's got two bags from Marshall's. When I told her yesterday we were interviewing you, she started bawling. Oh my God. She's so cute. So cute.
Okay, she said we shouldn't talk about her.
No, she just said they couldn't call her dumb names or something. A pig? Like, why would we ever do that? I know, I'm like, have you ever heard me talk about you?
She said, don't talk about me. And we were like, well, and he was like, just don't call me a pig. And we were like, why would we do that?
Like, have you ever heard me say anything? This couch is not for my height, I will say. What would you like to do? It's not for anyone. We have a pillow there. Do you want to? It's okay. I just don't want to put my feet on your table.
No, you can definitely. You could literally throw a knife in there.
You can do anything here. We just want you to be so comfortable.
Marcello, welcome.
I brought you guys stuff. You did? I brought you stuff. What? Do you want to do it now? Get it out of the way?
Yeah, let's do a gifting. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's always good to start with gifts.
I was just on the way. Yeah, and you swung by Marshalls. I was on the way and I did it now.
Are you sponsored by Marshalls?
No, I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. But I think we're all sponsored by Marshalls. Yeah. So I got you some stuff. Oh, okay. Great. We're going to start with you. So I got you this. I think you might like it. Okay. It's just Christmas. I left the tag on. Look at that.
Isn't that nice? It's really nice.
I felt like your vibe. It's you. It's just you. It's really nice. I got you this as well. Try that. Tell me what you think of that. Okay. Open that up. Look at that. Okay. That's not for me. No, that's not.
Yes, it is.
Because it looks like driving.
The automotive aspect is definitely for me. Right. Good job. Toyota Supra. Toyota. But the style of shirt with the collar. You don't see me in a lot of collared shirts.
I think you should try it.
Okay.
Yeah.
I think it might be a good one. And then I got you this. This is a big finish here. I got you this. Check this out. A ton of random. Look at that. Now that is something, isn't it? This. Because who doesn't love that? This is incredible.
For the listener, it's an elf thing.
What is it? A sweatshirt? It's an elf thing. It's an elf draping. Because it's a good movie, isn't it? It's a great movie.
And it was at Marshalls, and I grabbed it, and I thought you would like it. I was down in New Zealand shooting a movie when it came out and we all went to the theater and saw it. And it was the greatest moment.
What unsponsored gift selections does Marcello share?
Like two rows behind me, I hear this little voice go, oh my God, I love him.
