0:00 Want more Treehouse, check out our YouTube exclusive shows at YouTube dot com. Slash at Treehouse on air. Aha, you sucking. I'm sorry, but that'll never get old to me. It happens just enough, and I get this, I get to call it out. It makes me happy. So thank you, Trey. Wrong bank, right button, wrong bank. The stuff we the stuff we do, the stuff we trip over in our in our professional lives. All right, this is how do I normally do this?

0:42 You threw me off with the wrong bank. Oh it is time to leave your words outside and laugh with us here inside the Treehouse at a number of things, including sometimes you just sometimes you hit the wrong goddamn sound effect. That's okay, thank you, Trey. Coming up in Oh yeah, I'm Daniel Malley. He's trade trendholme. We've got Rebecca Black in here today, laughing at me. It's like an omen for the day already. It's okay, we're gonna get on track. It's all good. Coming up today. I've got something special for you, Rebecca. I have a feeling you will be standing in line to get into Overnight Horror Camp. Okay, yeah, all also millennials and minivans. I'm not expanding any further at the moment.

1:33 Just let that wash over you for a moment. Birthdays, of course, and gen Z wants our hand me downs. That's all coming up probably today inside the treehouse. Before we get to any of that, I need you guys to help me. I need your help to settle a debate I'm having inside my home. Tears right, I agree? How dare you both? I gotta stick with my girl. You haven't even heard the scenario. If she's right. Just shut up. I really think I'm right on this one. I need you to hear me out, and please God, you're just not gonna listen, all.

2:23 Right, So here's what I'm going to do. Then, since the two of you have clearly already decided which way you're voting on this, Dan. I will I will be objected, I will listen objectively, and I'll give you an honest answer. Well, seeing is how you both have revealed yourselves to be straight ticket voters, I'm now going to remove details out of this and just give you the situation is that I for my purposes, yes, this is the only way where I feel like I can get some truly unbiased opinions out of you. Two on this specific situation. So I'm going to give you the situation. I'm not going to tell you where I fell on this and where Tara fell on this. You just give me what you think is the correct answer. If I was to tell you I'm going to give you the business or I'm gonna show you the business, what do you think that means?

3:20 Give you the business? Is like I'm gonna give you a fistful of this, buddy. Yeah, uh huh yeah. And then what would you say is I'm going to show. You the business. I don't think I want to know. M Trey, which real quick. I love how you're like twirling your hair on that one. He's like, I don't business. All right, Trey, show him the business versus give him the business? Um your interpretation? Please, If you're gonna give him the business, I think you're gonna screw them. If you're gonna show him the business, yeah, flash them.

4:04 Okay. They're both essentially a threat right of some sort one coming from. Dan like I'll show you. Okay, So now the full context. A couple of weeks ago, uh, when we got Stateside Bella, our little Chihuahba mixed dog, right, Uh one of the things we do when we go stateside is we get her a new chew toy. So we got her this new, uh like crinkle squirrel chew toy that's also got a little squeaky inside of it. So when she's really excited in the morning, like she's ready to go outside or she's ready to eat breakfast, she gets after that squirrel.

4:50 And and it always, it always puts a smile on our faces because it's really cute. And Tara one day sees Bella getting after this plush squirrel and she says, you get it, Belly, you show it the business. And I just started cracking up. She's like, what are you laughing at? I said, we don't show them the business. She's given them the business. I said, if you're showing them the business, I kind of feel like it's like you're a flasher. Yeah yeah, see. You yeah, look at that. But I had I had to explain it so you would be on my side. Good thing, it's inconsequential, like if it was a real something or another, I'm definitely gonna have to side with Tara.

5:32 This means nothing in the game of your relationship. So I'm fine with siding with you on this one tiny thing. Shit, I didn't think about that since it really doesn't matter. It really doesn't matter, so it's a hollow victory on my department. Totally is she still gets sat. What's that tray? She still gets Saintthood. I know this isn't right because well, technically you guys said she's wrong. It's still super adorable. So like I can absolutely picture her being like, oh, you're showing him the business, like that's so cute.

6:17 Whereas if I say it, then I'm in jail. Yes, creep alert. Creep of the week, Dan showing him the business call the popo? Oh God help me, Okay. I mean we tried, we tried to support you. You're welcome, and when she shows you the business that's for play. Yeah, then I'm all for it. Yeah right, it's good for you at that point. Really, you just couldn't help yourself. Yeah, I dare you to say that to Terra's face? What what her getting on all fours? Is that what you just said?

6:58 Oh? So are you not? Are you not wise to the Dan strap On jokes? I mean I think we vaguely have referenced them, but I immediately went. To sorry, I get it. No, Trey skips over that step and goes right to role reversal. Correct. Okay, because because the easy thing would be that, yes, Cray just shoots way past it and then it's me on all fours and it's a pegging joke. Gotcha. There's nothing fun about There's nothing funny about making fun of Tara. That's why I was like, whoa dude, that's. A little harm. He'll he will bust me all day every day. Yeah, damn it, I walked right into that.

7:47 I set you up on that. That was completely unintentional. God damn it. Okay, I need to I need to get off this. That one was that one was on purpose. Thank you very much. All right, jin thank you for settling the debate, which ultimately gets me nowhere. But thank you. So gen Z apparently wants our hand me downs. Last week, I saw the story where a sweatshirt at Costco was such a throwback that the kids today had to have. It is Spree. Yeah, the clothing brand from back in the day is Spree. It was just a sweatshirt at Costco, and gen Z went absolutely nuts for it and bought all of them. It's just a cream colored sweatshirt with the multicolor is Spree letters across the chest, and they just went eight for it and bought them all. Now, look, I understand the Stalgia is really big right now, and I don't know really why, unless it's just, you know, trends are cyclical. But I don't really know why gen Z is so big on eighties and nineties stuff.

8:58 It's like I can't think of anything on their own. They have to steal our stuff. Well, they have no no creativity. They brought back the mullet. I mean, and I say this having worked in the kind of the secondhand clothing world for a bit, you have to understand they affliction is popular again. What ed hardie is popular again? Oh? Please God, so spond Dutch. Every everything we hated we was douchey twenty years ago. They they love everything that was douchey over the last fifty years.

9:41 They seem to love. Yeah, because like the mullets and the mustaches. Whenever I see the kids today like that, it just it takes me back to when my sisters started dating and all these all these guys today look like all my sister's ex boyfriends. When she was like fourteen, I would even lay the face. I'm gonna lay the facial hair thing more millennial that that seemed. I feel like maybe it was gen Z. I don't know that that's a. Trend that I can't speak to because I can't grow on the sash up. I was about to say, can you even grow one? That's always that always seems the reason for the hatred of facial hair is because you can't actually grow anything yourself.

10:22 It's jealousy. I get it, look like I looked like for me. I don't know if this holds true, but it's a very basic theory and I have not thought a lot about it. But Trey kind of falls into this, which is most guys today, almost no matter what their age, but older, especially millennials gen X men, almost all have facial hair. For those that can grow good facial hair, it seems like they do, whereas those that can't kind of just understand it and go the tray route, which is I'm not a beard guy, so I'm just going old school. I am clean shaven, and I'm gonna work out and have an awesome square jaw, unlike the neck beards.

11:08 Am I wrong? No? No, nailed it. Yeah, like I shave once a week. I mean, that's just I'm so jealous of that. I don't think you even understand. Is this is three days. It looks like you have nothing there. I don't. I literally and. Half of what it's gray anyways, but I literally, I mean I'm not. I'm just not a hairy person. I have very little arm hair, leg hair or anything. But I cannot uh, but it takes me two weeks to grow what a lot of guys can do in three days.

11:50 I can't believe I'm looking at you with a three day old shadow that is barely a shadow like it. It looks like the after of someone who just got a shave. Yes, I would agree with that. All right, most guys, most guys have a five o'clock shadow that for me would be three or four days without shaving. Jesus Christ. Not fair, not fair. So yeah, I kind of feel like the guys that can grow really big, kick ass beards. They do, and more power to them. I think I'm kind of in between. I've never tried to go like the big bushy beard thing because to me, it just seems inconvenient and I don't want to sleep on it and it smushes off my face and get food in it.

12:31 Really, I have nothing against mustaches and beards. What grosses me out, though, is when you watch someone with a mustache, a really big thick mustache or bear eat and then they get shit in it. It's gross disgusting. Nobody wants that, literally, no one. I will say this though, and I am well on the record of it as having said this, if you are going to go the mustache route, it better be good. And I don't mean it needs to have a flourish on it that looks like you're a boxer from the nineteen teens or anything like that, putting your fisticuffs up where it twirls and things. I'm just saying, if you are going to grow a mustache, it.

13:12 Needs to be full and manly. It's like, basically, if you can't get at least in the same ballpark with a Tom Seleck, then don't even bother. I agree with that. If you resemble more seventies creepy porn star, then just. Don't do that at all. But if you can go you know, the cell it wrap by god rocket all right. So gen Z wants our hand me downs. They want the Aespri sweatshirt that sold out. What is something that you would like to give gen Z. I'll start with clothing, because if they want all of our old stuff, they want the Apri sweatshirt they want, I swear to God, the same rebox that my dad wore in nineteen eighty eight are now popular.

14:07 It's the old school white rebox with the green lettering and the Union Jack flag on it. I saw that at DSW the other day and I was like, oh my god, they're there. Yep. If I wanted to, I could cause play my father. So it's a very weird thing. So I started thinking about, Okay, fine, if gen Z wants all of our old hand me downs, I know one thing that they would I would love to see them wear and look really really stupid. Get some old Cavalcci's. Put those on. Walk around no one. No one looked cool in those. We thought we did, but no going back and looking at those, hell no.

14:48 The z Cavalicci's were the ones with the label right down the crosh right and it was like a white long label, so it always looked like your fly was open. Yes, And we thought that was awesome. In the eighties, like I had a They were purple, and I thought they were totally kick ass. I had and I looked like the underwear we're hanging out all day I had. I had a black pair, but because I couldn't afford the z Cavalrici's. It was some off brand, but. It was the same style where it was like the sort of the parachute ish thigh portion and then it tapers at the knee, so it's it's like a less flashy version of hammer pants, you know. But yeah, where those?

15:30 Because if you want to look stupid, we'll make you look stupid. So wait, is that the point of this, what we're passing down is to make them look stupid? Yeah, oh man, they do, But I want them to go full stupid like the z cava Ricci's. The uh, they're already doing it with the Jinkos. Some they like mullets. What what what else are you gonna fucking do to them that's gonna make them look dumber? I mean, you give them a book and say read out loud. They don't know how to read.

16:11 I went actually something else, a little more abstract, although very tangible. I would give them some of my blood. The reason why is because I'm warm blooded, and all the Gen Z and the Genalpha kids these days are constantly wearing sweatshirts everywhere they go. It's like there's it's like they're chihuahuas. If they take it off, they just start shaking and crying or something. I saw some. Teenage girls walking around yesterday, all of them in hoodies. Yeah, it was one hundred and two. Yep. That's the look right now. And it's got to be an oversized hoodie where you can't see the short so it looks like you don't have pants on.

16:55 Look, I do that on my own. But you really don't have pants on. I assume I don't. That's because I'm telling terror. I'm gonna show you the business.

17:35 This segment of the Treehouse is brought to you by COOKDFW Roofing and Restoration for your free roof inspection and property review eight three three Cook DFW eight three three Cook DFW, the website cookdfw dot com. And I do believe this is Rebecca's first appearance back inside the Treehouse post Cook dfwroof job that is correct. Yeah, I didn't you guys. I called them and I got my roof fixed. There's no more hole in the roof. Yeah. And you didn't have to get a hole, brit I am. I'm proud and and I'm a little surprised. Thanks took me long enough.

18:16 Yeah. Uh. And the good news was, like you were worried about, they didn't come at you with saying, oh, you have to get a whole new roof. They're like, no, we can fix that. No. They were awesome every step of the way. And I wish I could remember the guy who actually came out to fix the hole, because he was freaking phenomenal. And after he was done, he comes back down to the front door and he literally showing me pictures of the work that he did, step by step, and I'm like I've never had anybody do that. That was freaking phenomenal. If you want that same treatment, if you want the Rebecca Black treatment from Cook DFW Roofing and Restoration, you call them right now eight three three Cook d FW or again that website COOKDFW dot com. They'll show you some fun photos of things you never thought you wanted or needed to know. But there it is, all right, speaking of things that you never thought you needed or wanted to know. So I gave you a couple of my suggestions on handby downs for gen Z.

19:08 So I need to ask. You, guys, what you would like to give gen Z because they want our handy downs. I'm more than happy to give them because I know you both pretty well. I'm gonna start with you, Rebecca, okay. So I was looking at it as something that I want to hand down to them so that when they're making these products, I too can participate and wear and buy. And I am going with the super duper low rise gene. I'm talking the Britney Spears gene. They're the most comfortable things on the planet. Yes, they look caught on women, but they're also comfortable as hell. Gen Z is doing it wrong with the high waisted garbage.

19:50 Yes, yes, yes, you show some thong. Yes, I don't care. I don't need to see the thong. I just whatever. Yeah, no, it's it's right here. Only thing missing from that was you standing on top of the pulpit and hand hands. There. There is not a guy that is listening to this going that is disagreeing with you. We all hate the mom jeans. We want the low cut, you know, bring it, bring it all back. I love that you guys are into it for the hotness level. The ladies are just into it for the comfort level. That's it. I don't need stuff digging in in places that it doesn't need to dig into, and the low rise prevents that problem.

20:34 So let's bring back those Britney spears low rise. Yeah, amen, sister. Yes, you get something that we don't hand out often inside the treehouse rebeca, that is a treehouse. Salute ah first, thank you? Yes, all right, Trey, what what would you love to hand hand down to gen Z? I would like to hand down to gen Z. In the late eighties early nineties, Coca Cola came out with a clothing line. Now this was not you know, it's like yes. It was sold at Sam's and Walmart. And this was not you know the retro the retro shirts, the cool t shirts or anything else.

21:15 This was stuff like this. Okay, I love that shirt. It was I would wear that. It was scarring. There was a sweater and it's scarring. It's like Donald's coke. This was. This was actually like I searched images high and low. This was actually a decent one. I couldn't find the really ugly ship that they actually had that my dad bought for me. But that is what I would I would give them is let them, you know, enjoy the uh Sam's Club Coca Cola sweaters. So I had if I one of these days, I need to rummage through some of the old photos that I know my mom has somewhere, and maybe I'll just tell her to do it and we'll give her something to do.

21:59 She'll probably appreciate the project. I too. Trey was subjected to the eighties Coca Cola product clothing line. I know for a fact there is a photo of me. Either eighty five or eighty eight, either nineteen eighty five or nineteen eighty eight, one of those two. It's a photo at Disney World. It's a family photo, which means, of course it's me, my mom, and my sister, because dads take the photos back then. So it's a family photo. And I am wearing I got the shoes, the socks pulled up, sweet shorts, of course, a COCAA, a red Coca Cola T shirt with the it's red and white, so it's a red shirt and white Coca Cola logo across the.

22:51 Chest and the three stars underneath it. And for a hat I am wearing because it's Disney World, a goofy hat with the floppy ears. And my sister's wearing something not all dissimilar because she's doing the girl version of it with the tight roll jeans, and also a coke shirt. And it's one of the most eighties photos there is. Oh god, Trey, what did you just pull up? I see something off of someone speaking of old pictures of you. Someone sent me this yesterday. Oh no, oh, no, oh my I didn't even recognize you, Dan, I did that looks like a whole different person.

23:32 What is that shirt I'm wearing? I remember that shirt? I don't know. Hey, look who is in the background. It's Trey. You can actually see Trey over the girl. Fat me. We all have a fat me. That's okay, Well, you know that's that's skinny alive, r Us alive. For us hell, which is the more important skinny alive. Uh, they kind of go hand in hand. I think they really did. Was that was that was Russ who actually cared about his appearance. It was very different from drunken, bloated Russ. Uh, new skinny Russ.

24:13 He's very skinny now, in fact, he's powder. Just boom. I honestly, I don't remember that, Like, I don't remember that shirt at all. But that was that would have been probably oh four somewhere, and that. It looks like a tire track of sorts across. I don't even recognize that logo. To I don't either m at something. Yeah, I beats the hell out of me. All right, anything else you would like to give to gen Z. Big giant helping him shut the fuck up.

24:57 I'm okay with that, Yeah, sure, ye, all right. Well let's take this opportunity then, to segue ever so casually into birthdays. Today is Wednesday, January January Jesus. I went with it. I was like, yeah, it's January. It's one hundred thousand degrees outside. But sure, maybe it's more wishful thinking. All right, Today is Wednesday, July twenty ninth, twenty twenty six. Let's celebrate today with some birthdays in the land of perpetual summer and heat advisories. Okay, here we go, birthdays today. Martina McBride is sixty country music superstar known for hits like Independence Day, A Broken Wing, and This One's for the Girls. Best known as Ted Mosby On How I Met Your Mother, Josh Radner is fifty two.

25:50 The worst part of that show. It's interesting how a lot of like ensemble shows have sort of someone like that. Yeah, and even though he was the main focus it, he got work, but the character just kind of grated on you after a while, didn't it. Yeah, he was the absolute worst. He was so desperate to like get married and have a family. And I'm like, so, then do it. Stop dumping everybody, Just do it the Uh. It's interesting. I saw a story a couple of weeks ago about How I Met Your Mother and someone called it like one of the best sitcoms of all time, And clearly that's it. That's an opinion I would not rank it as one of the best sitcoms of all time. But I will say it's one that I thoroughly enjoyed whenever I watched it, and it has some really memorable stuff, not the least of which is Neil Patrick Harris as a womanizing Manhattan knight despite the fact in real life he's gay, and that, to me just kind of added to it because he's It showed how good of an actor he is one and two how funny it was just to kind of know all of that and still watch it and buy in.

26:59 Okay, But question which came first the Harold and Kumar movie where they made Neil Patrick Harris like the uber like ladies man or whatever, or did How I Met your Mother take that and run with it because that's how I knew of Harold and. Yeah, right, that's what I thought. Yeah, So basically the show just kind of ran with that. Yeah, I think, Yeah, I think you're right, Trey. The I just rewatched that show, by the way, so it does. Not hold up oh the show or or Harold and Kumar. No, the show How I Met I disagree. I don't think.

27:39 I watched it two. I probably a year and a half. Two years ago. All the way through, I liked it. There was part of the story. Part of the story I read a couple of weeks ago was that and this is no shocker, because you know, we all did our time working for large media companies. Some of the executives at CBS didn't get the slap bet. The slap bet inside How I Met Your Mother was one of the great running gags. I will like it's to me. How I Met Your Mother's not one of the greatest shows of all time, but it has one of the greatest running gags of all time in a show which is every so often they would revisit the slap bet and there were five slaps. I think it was that Marshall got to dole out to Barney and they were so much fun to build up the tension, the payoff, all of it. And apparently the executives at CBS didn't want them to do it because they didn't get it.

28:37 And then and it. Just seems so fitting for idiot media executives going like, I don't get it. Well, of course you don't. You're you're you're in a hole in a c suite office. Yeah, you don't like it because you're Barney. But I love that gag. I love the whole slap bet thing. It's so brilliant. Yeah. So other birthdays today, Josh Radner is fifty two. Will Wheaton another classic, He is fifty four today. Jesus Christ, we are all old yep, star of stand By Me, Star Trek the Next Generation, which is one of Trey's favorites and a beloved staple in geek culture. So big as as. Will Wheaton was so big on Star Trek the Next Generation that it turned into a recurring character as himself on The Big Bang Theory.

29:35 Yeah, which he nearly didn't I was reading, which that is one of my all time favorite fitcoms, and he nearly didn't take that role. He had to have someone. Yeah, he wasn't gonna do it, and he had to have someone. It was like. Yeah and yeah, I mean yeah, he's had a whole nother career just based off that character. Yeah, and the their new spinoff show I think just started airing on HBO Max, the one where Stewart Saves the World or whatever. I haven't watched it yet, but it's actually gotten pretty solid reviews. I'm very curious how that one plays out because it's like you're coming from that three camera world into an HBO series, So like, does this does the comedy translate like it should?

30:19 If that makes sense? I know absolutely watched. I don't think I done it if it didn't. Yeah, when Trey and I watched the trailer a couple of months ago, we were like, I don't know, but I'm intrigued. So yeah, Uh Will Wheaton fifty four today and going back to like him, you know, and stand by me. And one of the other random movies that I remember him from where he gets killed is Toy Soldiers. It was Will Wheaton. Any any excuse I get to bring up a random movie. Uh, this was back in the nineties when you had these random I don't know why. I don't know why the nineties were so obsessed with prep school movies because.

31:00 In Texas that is not a thing. We don't understand it. Maybe that's part of the reason why Trey's doing his vulcan eyebrow. Uh, it's like a Northeast thing with the prep schools or you send your kid away. Those are military schools. Some are military. You've never gotten threat with Harlingen. No, I didn't I didn't not get threatened with that. But I mean, if you think about, like Toy Soldiers is one of those movies in the nineties you had Will Wheaton as is one of the stars. You had Sean Aston as one of the as the star of it. It's these kids at a prep school and it gets taken over by drug dealers. As you do, it happens and then they fight back. But so Toy Soldiers random movie also co starring Lucas at Junior. So that movie Prep School, Dead Poet Society Boys prep school school.

31:59 Yeah it is. Yeah, yeah, Saint Mark's jesuit. Yeah, but those kids got to go home. Really, just those are just private schools. I knew. I knew a bunch of living Like some people live there the entire semester. There's a girls school that's like that too in Dallas. Yeah that you can you can either live there or go home. It's their sister school. Yeah yeah, gotcha. Yeah. So I didn't know that they had living quarters at those schools. I just thought they were just straight private schools. School ties with Brendan Fraser were dealt with religious discrimination because he was Jewish. But really kiss and Football, yeah, which by the way the bad guy in that movie, Uh, Matt Damon. I had totally forgotten about that. Really, go back and watch School Ties. It's got Matt Damon, Ben Affleck.

32:53 What's his name? Who plays Rip in Yellowstone which, by the way, they're all through the cole Houser Thinking, which by the way, they're all in Goodwill Hunting. Tara and I just rewatched that the other day. That holds up. Love that movie. Good movie. And then then you know Casey Affleck as well. But yeah, all those prep school movies. I don't know what it was with the nineties and boys prep schools. It was so foreign to me, and like all these parents like to ship their kids off to live away. It's like that seems so weird. But whatever made for interesting movies. All right. My favorite birthday for today, saving for last Stephen Dorf, is fifty three. Rebecca. I'm going to apologize to you right now as a disclaimer. Okay, but because of the Avengers doomsday trailer last week and the Deadpool appearance over the weekend at d twenty three Comic Con. Whatever, with the Avenger stuff, it's been on our mind a lot lately. Yeah, and Stephen dorf is in that world because he was the bad guy in the very first Blade movie starring Wesley Snipes, which was Yeah, which was actually one of Marvel's first movies. Yeah, and that movie still hits hard.

34:07 I've never seen it. I've definitely seen it. I just got chills, Tray, you need to see Blade. I've seen multiple Blade movies. Isn't there one with Ryan Reynolds in it, like the second or third one? Yeah, and then Jessica Bieles and another one. Yeah, I've seen all those. They're both in the third one. Yeah, so the one with have you seen any of these movies? Trey? Okay? So like in in Deadpool and Wolverine, when Wesley Snipe shows up as Blade, when there's that banter between Ryan Reynolds, Deadpool and Wesley Snipes, I mean that goes back to Blade three. Right now. I understood all that, but I've never seen all of the movies.

34:48 And it's interesting because Ryan Reynolds in that character in Blade three was very much the beginnings of Deadpool, that style character where it's someone who like an action badass, but he's foul mouthed and whatever, like at one point because he's a vampire Hunter. He's chained to a floor. This is the first time he got in ridiculous shape. That was when he hit the Men't health Cover because this was right after Van Wilder. He's chained to a floor and he's telling this vampires. He's talking to her, He's talking, he's talking all this shit and he and he refers to her as Rebecca your muffs. He refers to her as a thundercunt.

35:32 That's a compliment, though. I guess it could be. So that's a powerful name. You can call PC all day because I can. Bring the thunder, I can bring the I'm not saying that. But oh my god. I didn't think we'd come up with your Halloween costume today, but or a spinoff of ThunderCats. Oh god. This segment of the tree House is brought to you by our Patreon.

She's Rebecca all right, this one's special for you, Rebecca Black. Here we Go. Southern California is getting a twelve hour overnight horror camp. I'm in sold done. I knew it. I knew you would be.

36:57 Camp Coffin Creek is a twelve our immersive horror camping experience featuring roaming slashers, three haunted attractions, survival games, scavenger hunts, outdoor horror movies, and overnight tenth camping. Oh wait, the tent in cabin. Maybe maybe that'll be an upgrade? Is that the VIP section? Please? You're more into the glamping? Yeah, I guess. Performers may physically interact with guests throughout the experience. It's in Chino, California. It's actually happening in about three weeks.

37:41 You got August twenty first, twenty second, twenty eighth, and the twenty ninth. It's seven pm to seven am. Tickets are required ages thirteen and older. Guests ages thirteen to fifteen do require an adult chaperone. Sure Tickets and official information are available through Nightmare Rising Hunt, Hunted Attraction, and part of their camp. Part of their marketing says, do you think you could survive an entire night inside of a slasher movie? Here's the problem, Oh. Boy, It says the actors may be physically, you know, interactive with the guests. The problem is the first guest that's gonna knock the fuck out of the actor.

38:25 Yeah, that's very that's a very real. Camp. Coffin Creek is a twelve hour immersive horror camping experience the roaming Slashers, Haunted Attractions, Rival Games, cavit Hunts, outdoor horror movies, and overnight tint camping. This sounds like one of those great ideas, like you just pointed out, Trey, that could go bad quickly. I don't know how they regulate that though when it comes to because I've never I've never done a haunted house or anything where the actors are allowed to somewhat physically interact with you. I've always been to the ones where it's like, you know, they're not gonna touch you. Yeah, at the worst, they might tickle your leg as you walk by, but they're not going to like tackle you.

39:15 Yeah, because don't you usually. Have to sign like a waiver for that to happen, for you to be able to be touched or whatever. Yeah, but one of the problems is, and why you don't see him that often is, you know, you scare the crap out of somebody, you don't know what they're gonna do, and sometimes they will kick, scream, punch whatever. M hm. So one of my favorite innet one of my favorite internet videos of all time is the one in a school where a guy's wearing a horror mask pops up out of a trash can to scare his buddy, and his buddy cold cox him right back into the can. I mean, that's it right there. You don't know how someone's going to respond. Yeah, there's also that thing.

39:55 There was a social media trend where like the wives were hiding in the shower behind the curtain and making noises while their husbands were peeing, and their husbands punched them literally in the face. And what do you think is gonna happen? Yeah? Uh, careful what you do because sometimes there there are unintended or unexpected consequences for sure. And I've always been go. Ahead, if you're one of the actors, I would go like the Jason route and at least have or no who was. Hockey mask Jason? Yeah, yeah, I would go that, except I would update my hockey mask for more of the the full head one.

40:36 Like a helmet, like a full blown moment, just in case somebody tries. To give you a concussion. Someone is I mean, yeah, tracks if you're really going to scare the crap out of somebody, and especially it's not like you're talking about a haunted house where you're talking about three to four minutes and the person going in there knows you're talking about twelve hours. And I'm assuming they're going to pop out it at various spots where you're not expecting it, so people will start swinging. Yeah, I would need to wear that like the dog attack suit. We're nice and thick, so if somebody is to punch me, it's not gonna hurt as bad. Oh that makes more sense. I thought you were saying that's what you would wear as a as one of the guests.

41:17 Oh No, if I worked there, I would be like, give me that attack suit so that I can't be harmed. That actually makes sense. The because you're not gonna be able to run very good in that. Not at all. It's just slow burn. You're gonna look like the kid in Christmas Story. You fall down and you're just stuck. You just you just look like a scared turtle. The uh. I can't remember what it's called or where it is, but I'm sure we've all heard of it. We've talked about it on various forms of radio or whatever. The haunted house that exists where no one has ever finished it. Basically, yeah, it's it's a comp and it's as like part competition, and it's apparently so horrific the things that they actually do to you that I don't think anyone's ever actually completed it and stayed and gone through the whole thing.

42:13 But it involves things like basically being bound in late text up against a wall so you're breathing through a straw kind of a thing, and just other really horrific things that I'm not even sure if they're allowed to talk about, maybe because of nondisclosure agreements, but that's the one I'm most fascinated by. I have absolutely zero interest in doing it because you're basically just signing over any sort of consent and you're just saying, like Yeah, you get to torture me a bunch. Yeah that's weird. You're paying somebody else to torture you. Like that's a thing. Apparently, Like that's not so much a haunted house. You're just a member of Congress, right Like if you go to like the ball stomping Emporium kind of a thing. Yeah, that doesn't that doesn't sound so much like horror as it is just weirdos getting off on stuff.

43:07 Maybe that's what it's about. Then maybe we missed the memo. Maybe it is. I don't know. I just assume that's like a Friday night for you. Dan, there it is. Thank you, Trey. What's your weapon of choice? Dan? The business? I was gonna say, ballgag. Good luck keeping me quiet. I will chew through that. Thank you for hanging out with us inside the Treehouse today.
