Who Is Your Choppleganger? | Thursday 01.15.26

We start off today discussing women's farts and if they're worse and if they have benefits.  Then, we are introduced to the word Choppleganger and find out if we have one, and we meet a woman who has been praying to the wrong God.

It is time to believe your worries outside and laugh with

10
00:00:32.159 --> 00:00:37.399
us inside the Treehouse. I'm Daniel Maley along with Trey

11
00:00:37.399 --> 00:00:43.079
Trenholm and Jerry Caldwell and Raj Sharma. Raj, I saved

12
00:00:43.079 --> 00:00:45.880
you for last because apparently you didn't get the blue

13
00:00:45.880 --> 00:00:52.320
shirt memo. I did not this. This is completely by accident.

14
00:00:52.439 --> 00:00:56.200
We didn't plan this. It just kind of sometimes happens. Women,

15
00:00:56.880 --> 00:00:59.399
if they spend enough time together, can sync up on

16
00:00:59.719 --> 00:01:03.679
their periods. Apparently, with us inside the treehouse, we'll sync

17
00:01:03.759 --> 00:01:07.319
up on colors of shirt. Light blue is the theme

18
00:01:07.359 --> 00:01:09.480
of the day. Apparently except for you, Raj, you got

19
00:01:09.480 --> 00:01:15.959
the black hoodie. Yes again not intentional, but here we

20
00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:17.200
are like minded.

21
00:01:17.239 --> 00:01:18.599
I guess.

22
00:01:19.879 --> 00:01:21.719
We are going to start today with something we have

23
00:01:21.799 --> 00:01:25.239
not done in just a little while, and.

24
00:01:25.200 --> 00:01:25.760
That is.

25
00:01:46.560 --> 00:01:49.959
Total side note. I just saw that. I think CBS

26
00:01:49.959 --> 00:01:52.799
said they we're going to have that reboot. I was

27
00:01:52.840 --> 00:01:53.760
just about late this year.

28
00:01:54.400 --> 00:01:57.120
Really, the last thing I saw was that there was

29
00:01:57.879 --> 00:02:02.079
it was a dead show and it didn't have any hope.

30
00:02:02.480 --> 00:02:04.200
So that's good news, thank you, Trey.

31
00:02:04.640 --> 00:02:07.640
The pilot didn't get picked up because they had changed

32
00:02:07.640 --> 00:02:11.400
it to where it was a girl that was, But

33
00:02:11.439 --> 00:02:15.039
now they've gone back to the original format and looks

34
00:02:15.080 --> 00:02:15.759
like it's happening.

35
00:02:18.560 --> 00:02:22.360
All right, brown girl, No, is it a white guy? Yes,

36
00:02:22.840 --> 00:02:27.560
there you go, Hollywood back in back in traditional form. No,

37
00:02:28.000 --> 00:02:30.639
So that's unrelated to the story I'm going to share

38
00:02:30.680 --> 00:02:32.759
with you, and you have to guess about whether or

39
00:02:32.879 --> 00:02:35.800
not you believe it. But believe it or not coming back,

40
00:02:35.840 --> 00:02:38.840
I think the time is right for it. It was

41
00:02:38.919 --> 00:02:41.120
it was a fun show back in the day. It

42
00:02:41.120 --> 00:02:44.159
can be a fun show today, especially with all the

43
00:02:44.159 --> 00:02:46.199
superhero stuff you can make fun of, which is what

44
00:02:46.240 --> 00:02:48.039
the whole point of the show was in the first place.

45
00:02:48.639 --> 00:02:54.520
So yay, good news. All right, believe it or not,

46
00:02:55.400 --> 00:03:00.520
science has finally proved that girl farts are worse than guys.

47
00:03:00.840 --> 00:03:10.439
Do you believe it or not? Trey, We'll start with you, Uh,

48
00:03:10.919 --> 00:03:14.800
don't believe it? Okay, Jerry, do you believe it or

49
00:03:14.840 --> 00:03:19.360
not believe it? Believe it? And Raj do you believe

50
00:03:19.520 --> 00:03:26.520
that girl farts are worse than men according to science? Uh?

51
00:03:26.599 --> 00:03:27.120
I'll go with.

52
00:03:27.159 --> 00:03:34.400
Yes, Trey, you are wrong. According to science, women's farts

53
00:03:34.479 --> 00:03:37.879
really do tend to smell worse than men's, and there's

54
00:03:37.919 --> 00:03:43.199
a reason behind it. According to research, women's farts contain

55
00:03:43.319 --> 00:03:52.599
higher concentrations of hydrogen sulfide and superiority complex. The superiority

56
00:03:52.639 --> 00:03:53.280
thing was my.

57
00:03:53.319 --> 00:03:56.240
Addition that was, where was this research done?

58
00:03:57.680 --> 00:03:59.080
I haven't gotten to that yet.

59
00:03:59.240 --> 00:03:59.639
Okay.

60
00:04:00.159 --> 00:04:04.120
Stuck on the headline, science proves girl farts are worse,

61
00:04:04.199 --> 00:04:06.840
I'm like, yes, it is. This is a classic case

62
00:04:06.879 --> 00:04:09.919
of confirmation bias. I have long since believed that girl

63
00:04:10.000 --> 00:04:13.719
farts are way worse than men's and science has now

64
00:04:13.759 --> 00:04:16.240
proven it, and I saw a headline that backed it up,

65
00:04:16.360 --> 00:04:18.439
So I'm going to stay with that. I'll try to

66
00:04:18.439 --> 00:04:21.759
give you a little more info here. According to research,

67
00:04:21.800 --> 00:04:26.120
women's flatulence contains higher concentrations of hydrogen sulfide. The sulfur

68
00:04:26.160 --> 00:04:30.240
based compound behind the classic rotten egg smell, which makes

69
00:04:30.279 --> 00:04:33.839
it smell stronger even if they pass gas less often

70
00:04:34.079 --> 00:04:38.240
than dudes. But here's the twist. That smell of your

71
00:04:38.319 --> 00:04:42.959
gas might not be all bad. Oh god, seriously, they

72
00:04:42.959 --> 00:04:46.240
get to be right even when they fart. This isn't right.

73
00:04:48.160 --> 00:04:51.360
Small amounts of hydrogen sulfide have been linked in studies

74
00:04:51.399 --> 00:04:55.639
to potential brain protective effects, including helping nerve cells communicate

75
00:04:55.680 --> 00:05:00.639
and possibly reducing risks associated with aging and Alzheimer's. Oh god,

76
00:05:00.680 --> 00:05:03.519
no one showed my wife this story, because if this

77
00:05:03.680 --> 00:05:05.680
is true, that means the more she farts, the more

78
00:05:05.720 --> 00:05:08.720
I remember, and we can't have that. Well, that also

79
00:05:08.839 --> 00:05:13.959
justifies us for all those times we gave them Dutch evans. Well,

80
00:05:14.000 --> 00:05:16.519
see the difference there is. We're doing it just to

81
00:05:16.519 --> 00:05:20.199
be funny or crude. Now if they start doing it's

82
00:05:20.240 --> 00:05:22.879
because they're trying to change us and make us better.

83
00:05:23.360 --> 00:05:25.480
So we've just given them another way to do that.

84
00:05:26.600 --> 00:05:29.160
This is actually bad news. I now hate this story.

85
00:05:30.240 --> 00:05:35.240
It prevents them from getting Alzheimer's, not us, I don't know.

86
00:05:35.879 --> 00:05:38.920
Small amounts of hydrogen sulfide LinkedIn studies to potential brain

87
00:05:39.000 --> 00:05:42.120
protective effects, including helping nerve cells communicate and possibly reducing

88
00:05:42.160 --> 00:05:47.600
risk associated with aging and Alzheimer's. It doesn't specify there

89
00:05:48.079 --> 00:05:51.839
if it's your own gas or if taking in somebody

90
00:05:51.839 --> 00:05:57.839
else's does it or does it even matter? I mean

91
00:05:58.199 --> 00:06:04.879
gas is gas, right, well it is. But there is

92
00:06:04.959 --> 00:06:09.600
definitely a difference between smelling your own fart and somebody

93
00:06:09.639 --> 00:06:12.199
else's because I'm pretty sure I've seen this somewhere that

94
00:06:12.279 --> 00:06:17.079
science has also proven that the smell of your own

95
00:06:17.160 --> 00:06:22.079
farts is not bad to you. It's not as bad

96
00:06:22.120 --> 00:06:25.759
to you as it is compared to somebody else's because

97
00:06:25.800 --> 00:06:28.160
it's your smell and for some reason, you don't mind

98
00:06:28.199 --> 00:06:31.040
it as much. But if it's somebody else, you're like,

99
00:06:31.120 --> 00:06:32.120
oh my god, what is that.

100
00:06:35.800 --> 00:06:40.879
I've I've I've I've farted before, like I shouldn't be alive,

101
00:06:41.160 --> 00:06:45.720
Like it's this is terrible. Uh yeah, yeah.

102
00:06:45.600 --> 00:06:47.680
It doesn't happen often, but there have been a couple

103
00:06:47.759 --> 00:06:52.319
of times where I've also let one go and thought,

104
00:06:52.360 --> 00:06:55.480
oh god, what what if I been eating? Like it's

105
00:06:55.480 --> 00:06:59.519
a it's a frightening thing when you fart and it

106
00:06:59.560 --> 00:07:03.160
actually smells like somebody else. It's like, that's not someone

107
00:07:03.319 --> 00:07:05.399
like just sneak in here like that that doesn't smell

108
00:07:05.439 --> 00:07:07.759
like one of mine. You stret looking around because they're

109
00:07:07.759 --> 00:07:12.040
an intruder, and that's when you know you're like, Okay,

110
00:07:12.199 --> 00:07:14.040
something needs to change. I need to go to the doctor,

111
00:07:14.160 --> 00:07:16.800
need to change my diet. Something doesn't happen often, but

112
00:07:16.839 --> 00:07:18.759
when it does, it is kind of alarming. As you

113
00:07:18.800 --> 00:07:23.160
just pointed out, right, yeah, I've had one more or

114
00:07:23.240 --> 00:07:25.839
I was like, I need to go to the hospital.

115
00:07:26.399 --> 00:07:28.959
There's something dead inside me.

116
00:07:29.560 --> 00:07:32.319
What just happened. I don't need to know now if

117
00:07:32.360 --> 00:07:34.319
there's a if there's an easier way to get it

118
00:07:34.360 --> 00:07:39.759
out of me than it bursting through my chest. Also,

119
00:07:39.800 --> 00:07:46.560
I need to stop eating cabbage like that. I mean,

120
00:07:46.600 --> 00:07:49.160
so yeah, so I don't. I don't technically know if

121
00:07:50.079 --> 00:07:54.920
if the girl smoke, if if that makes her brain

122
00:07:55.879 --> 00:07:59.120
protected from Alzheimer's, or if she's just every time she

123
00:07:59.199 --> 00:08:03.160
lets one go protecting everyone that inhales it. I don't

124
00:08:03.160 --> 00:08:03.600
know that part.

125
00:08:03.759 --> 00:08:05.360
I mean, you make it sound like if if it

126
00:08:05.439 --> 00:08:07.639
was protecting you, that you would all of a sudden

127
00:08:07.639 --> 00:08:09.240
be able to remember your birth.

128
00:08:12.079 --> 00:08:13.839
Well, I guess it depends on the fart.

129
00:08:13.920 --> 00:08:19.639
I mean, I mean, well, you you don't you Uhara

130
00:08:19.680 --> 00:08:20.680
in a good light in this one.

131
00:08:23.600 --> 00:08:27.199
Well, they do say with great power, it comes great responsibility.

132
00:08:29.519 --> 00:08:31.240
I mean, you could freak out a lot of people

133
00:08:31.240 --> 00:08:34.039
if you just start crop dusting everyone you come across

134
00:08:34.279 --> 00:08:36.799
and they all all of a sudden remember their birth.

135
00:08:36.840 --> 00:08:41.279
That would be traumatic and hysterical. If you're the one doing.

136
00:08:41.080 --> 00:08:47.440
It, you're going to turn into rain Man. At one point.

137
00:08:48.440 --> 00:08:50.919
You're just gonna start counting cards in Vegas.

138
00:08:51.080 --> 00:08:56.480
Like if I'm around someone that a female that farts

139
00:08:56.600 --> 00:09:03.240
enough and I've got an identic memory, or if you'll

140
00:09:03.279 --> 00:09:05.879
ever get enough of them together and you inhale it,

141
00:09:05.960 --> 00:09:08.200
then you can play out your own version of Back

142
00:09:08.240 --> 00:09:12.120
to the Future too where you're biff. I think there's

143
00:09:12.279 --> 00:09:18.039
a category on Pornhub by the way, spelling parts. Yeah, oh,

144
00:09:18.080 --> 00:09:19.519
I'm sure of course it is.

145
00:09:20.440 --> 00:09:21.879
I feel like at some point you're gonna be able

146
00:09:21.960 --> 00:09:24.039
to identify the second gunman on the grassy note.

147
00:09:29.360 --> 00:09:29.639
Yeah.

148
00:09:29.720 --> 00:09:31.639
I can't wait to see the look on the CIA

149
00:09:31.679 --> 00:09:33.320
agent's face when I come forwards.

150
00:09:36.600 --> 00:09:44.840
You're in the visit us online a treehouseonair dot Com.

151
00:09:45.320 --> 00:09:48.679
Let's get Daniel Cook from COOKDFW Roofing and Restoration into

152
00:09:48.759 --> 00:09:52.559
the treehouse for your free roof inspection and property review.

153
00:09:52.559 --> 00:09:55.399
That's free as well. Eight three three cook DFW the

154
00:09:55.399 --> 00:09:58.960
website cookdfw dot com. It's sort of a new service

155
00:09:58.960 --> 00:10:02.879
that you're offering, Daniel, the property review, and it's a

156
00:10:02.919 --> 00:10:05.679
great one because, I mean, other roofing companies will offer

157
00:10:05.679 --> 00:10:07.759
a free roof inspection, but I don't know of any

158
00:10:07.879 --> 00:10:10.559
company that, when they're there to do that, will walk

159
00:10:10.600 --> 00:10:13.720
around the rest of their property and point out any

160
00:10:13.840 --> 00:10:17.320
issues you may have and potentially saving you a ton

161
00:10:17.360 --> 00:10:17.720
of money.

162
00:10:17.799 --> 00:10:22.200
Dan, It's amazing by no other contractors really focus on that.

163
00:10:22.240 --> 00:10:25.759
But our whole goal is to help the homeowner protect

164
00:10:25.759 --> 00:10:28.519
their home, protect their family, make sure they don't have

165
00:10:28.759 --> 00:10:31.559
really costly mistakes down the road. And so yeah, if

166
00:10:31.600 --> 00:10:33.720
we come out, you can ask us to do the

167
00:10:33.799 --> 00:10:37.480
roof inspection. Absolutely, that's our primary concern. Everything starts at

168
00:10:37.480 --> 00:10:39.840
the top. But you'll be amazed when you start walking

169
00:10:39.840 --> 00:10:42.559
around your property what you will see and water some

170
00:10:42.600 --> 00:10:44.759
items that could be failing around your home that will

171
00:10:44.799 --> 00:10:48.120
literally cost you hundreds, if not thousands of dollars if

172
00:10:48.120 --> 00:10:50.360
you let them go. So yeah, call us out, let

173
00:10:50.399 --> 00:10:53.279
us come around. We have a nice little checklist. We

174
00:10:53.279 --> 00:10:55.480
can walk around the property. We invite you to walk

175
00:10:55.480 --> 00:10:57.679
around with us. We love to educate you. There's a

176
00:10:57.679 --> 00:10:59.600
lot of first time home buyers out there that have

177
00:10:59.639 --> 00:11:01.600
had a home for a couple of years, or maybe

178
00:11:01.639 --> 00:11:04.159
they bought a pre owned home and around the area,

179
00:11:04.960 --> 00:11:07.639
and those homes need some maintenance and they need some TLC.

180
00:11:07.960 --> 00:11:10.440
And just like a good woman, if you don't give

181
00:11:10.440 --> 00:11:13.039
her enough TLC, some bad things are gonna happen down

182
00:11:13.080 --> 00:11:15.159
the line, So make sure you don't do that.

183
00:11:15.960 --> 00:11:18.519
Yeah, make sure your house doesn't turn into a poltergeist

184
00:11:19.039 --> 00:11:21.679
like some of Trey's ex'es have. Eight three three Cook

193
00:12:05.440 --> 00:12:10.399
girl farts are worse than ours. We have a new

194
00:12:10.440 --> 00:12:15.159
word alert I believe this one is attributed to Jin Alpha.

195
00:12:16.320 --> 00:12:16.759
No Boy.

196
00:12:17.360 --> 00:12:22.320
Teens have officially found a new way to throw shade,

197
00:12:22.480 --> 00:12:25.200
and parents are actually kind of loving how funny it is.

198
00:12:25.720 --> 00:12:29.600
The new word is chopel ganger. This is the latest

199
00:12:29.600 --> 00:12:33.720
slang taking over middle school classrooms. But what does it mean?

200
00:12:33.879 --> 00:12:39.799
Does anyone know? Right now? Do you know it yet? No?

201
00:12:39.879 --> 00:12:41.039
I know actual words?

202
00:12:42.799 --> 00:12:45.440
Man if I may, I would like to take this

203
00:12:45.519 --> 00:12:51.919
opportunity to quote Thor in Avengers Infinity War when he

204
00:12:52.000 --> 00:12:58.759
said all words are made up. It really is one

205
00:12:58.799 --> 00:13:02.559
of the most brilliant lines in cinema history, and it

206
00:13:02.679 --> 00:13:04.879
was sort of a throwaway in the middle of that

207
00:13:05.000 --> 00:13:08.200
epic saga. And it really was Thors on the spaceship

208
00:13:08.399 --> 00:13:11.240
with the Guardians of the Galaxy and they're like, you

209
00:13:11.360 --> 00:13:13.039
just made that up. All the words it made up,

210
00:13:13.279 --> 00:13:15.360
and then right into the next line, and he was right,

211
00:13:15.440 --> 00:13:20.440
because they are. Choppel Ganger is the new term from teenagers,

212
00:13:21.200 --> 00:13:26.159
and it's meaning it's pretty damn good. Actually, choppel Ganger

213
00:13:26.320 --> 00:13:29.600
is a noun and it describes someone who looks like

214
00:13:29.759 --> 00:13:34.919
another person, except they're the downgraded off brand version. Think

215
00:13:35.039 --> 00:13:40.360
t MoU doppelganger. That is choppel ganger. It is a

216
00:13:40.399 --> 00:13:45.200
mashup of two words, chopped and doppelganger. I guess chopped

217
00:13:45.320 --> 00:13:50.559
is a gin alpha term for I guess like a

218
00:13:50.720 --> 00:13:53.399
cutoff version, a chopped up version of the real thing

219
00:13:53.440 --> 00:13:55.559
that that word. I don't exactly know, but I had

220
00:13:55.559 --> 00:13:58.000
the definition here for choppel ganger, and that's what they say.

221
00:13:59.240 --> 00:14:06.840
I mean, Gary Busey. Gary Busey is the poor man's nicky.

222
00:14:10.679 --> 00:14:12.399
Nicky is the poor man's ripped horn.

223
00:14:18.720 --> 00:14:20.519
And two of those gave us two of the best

224
00:14:20.600 --> 00:14:26.679
mugshots of all freaking time. Absolutely, does Gary Busey not

225
00:14:26.720 --> 00:14:30.080
have a mugshot. He's got to have one somewhere. I

226
00:14:30.120 --> 00:14:32.039
don't think buy is a mug shot.

227
00:14:33.480 --> 00:14:35.159
I don't think the camera takes his picture.

228
00:14:35.279 --> 00:14:42.440
No that if it does, it does so silently because

229
00:14:42.480 --> 00:14:43.480
it knows what's good for it.

230
00:14:48.000 --> 00:14:52.639
Mugshots aside, that was always you know, Gary Busey, you

231
00:14:52.639 --> 00:14:55.440
know you're the poor man's nick nolty, You're a knockoff.

232
00:14:56.600 --> 00:14:59.000
Wow. Yeah, I never really thought about that, but I

233
00:14:59.000 --> 00:15:01.240
guess you're right. I guess they look similar. I just

234
00:15:01.279 --> 00:15:03.279
did a quick search. I don't see I just oh,

235
00:15:03.320 --> 00:15:05.720
I did Gary mugshot? No wonder I got some weird results.

236
00:15:07.080 --> 00:15:11.639
Me tried Gary Busey instead, But yeah, Rip Torn and

237
00:15:11.799 --> 00:15:16.000
Nick Nolty had two of the most classic mug shots

238
00:15:16.039 --> 00:15:19.279
in history. There's no doubt about that. But here I'm

239
00:15:19.279 --> 00:15:25.480
trying to see I don't see a Gary Busey mugshot. Interestingly, though,

240
00:15:25.639 --> 00:15:28.919
when you type in Gary Busey mugshot and look up

241
00:15:28.919 --> 00:15:35.639
an image result, you get the Nick Nolty mugshot. That's

242
00:15:35.679 --> 00:15:38.000
how good of a mugshot. Nick Nolty's was back in

243
00:15:38.039 --> 00:15:40.120
the day. Not only is it his, but he also

244
00:15:40.159 --> 00:15:42.840
gets attributed for Gary Busey, who doesn't even have one.

245
00:15:43.720 --> 00:15:47.159
Go back and compare their their late eighties pictures. There

246
00:15:49.840 --> 00:15:51.360
there's strikingly similar.

247
00:15:51.879 --> 00:15:57.200
Yeah, I will say this. Does everyone know who mel

248
00:15:57.279 --> 00:16:00.840
Kiper is? The NFL draft expert on his for years?

249
00:16:01.360 --> 00:16:06.399
Mm hmm, Well, Jerry, he's the NFL draft expert for years,

250
00:16:06.879 --> 00:16:11.360
And for those that don't know who he is, I'm

251
00:16:11.399 --> 00:16:12.679
going to show you what he looks like.

252
00:16:13.919 --> 00:16:17.320
He's responsible for the business of the NFL draft the

253
00:16:17.440 --> 00:16:18.279
entertainment side.

254
00:16:19.240 --> 00:16:27.000
Yes, yes, that is that is very, very accurate. I'm

255
00:16:27.000 --> 00:16:28.679
trying to get a photo pulled up of him here,

256
00:16:29.879 --> 00:16:35.440
but it is true. Trey has a choppel ganger, a

257
00:16:35.559 --> 00:16:39.919
less good looking version of him, and it actually is

258
00:16:40.039 --> 00:16:45.320
mel Kiper, the NFL draft expert from ESPN. I stand

259
00:16:45.360 --> 00:16:51.639
by that wholeheartedly, Raj, you know what I'm talking about

260
00:16:51.720 --> 00:16:55.200
right now that you said it. Yes, I didn't know

261
00:16:55.240 --> 00:17:01.000
his name, but yes, so quick, look here you go.

262
00:17:02.080 --> 00:17:14.759
This is mel Kiper. That's Trey right here. So here's

263
00:17:14.799 --> 00:17:25.119
Trey and we've sorry, now I'm just playing with buttons.

264
00:17:25.279 --> 00:17:28.200
So Trey and mel Kiper and I and I mean

265
00:17:28.279 --> 00:17:31.279
this as a compliment to you. Trey, mel Kiper is

266
00:17:31.319 --> 00:17:36.039
your chappel ganger. You are there better looking version. Yes, yes,

267
00:17:36.599 --> 00:17:37.119
there's the.

268
00:17:38.599 --> 00:17:38.880
Ganger.

269
00:17:39.519 --> 00:17:41.720
I'll take that over the one most people say so,

270
00:17:42.279 --> 00:17:43.680
which is head Cruz.

271
00:17:46.119 --> 00:17:46.599
Oh.

272
00:17:46.720 --> 00:17:47.799
Oh that's not right.

273
00:17:50.160 --> 00:17:55.839
I mean that kind of is.

274
00:17:58.039 --> 00:18:01.680
No. No, I'm no, I'm not gonna do it to you, Trey.

275
00:18:01.720 --> 00:18:04.960
I'm not. Oh. On the other hand, hang on, let

276
00:18:04.960 --> 00:18:12.119
me go old school, yeah, before the beard. Yeah, ship,

277
00:18:12.200 --> 00:18:23.640
I'm sorry, Trey. You know what, Let's just stay with

278
00:18:23.680 --> 00:18:24.720
mel Kiper. How about that?

279
00:18:24.920 --> 00:18:25.920
Yeah, let's do that.

280
00:18:26.279 --> 00:18:29.119
But again again, actually, you know what, there's there's still

281
00:18:29.160 --> 00:18:31.240
there's still a positive angle to keep in mind on

282
00:18:31.240 --> 00:18:36.519
this I'm gonna I'm gonna pull that up in a second.

283
00:18:37.000 --> 00:18:41.000
But it's still true. You are still the better looking

284
00:18:41.160 --> 00:18:45.680
version of you and the Ted Cruz doppelganger thing. So

285
00:18:45.920 --> 00:18:50.599
I still I still believe that you are Trey Prime

286
00:18:51.119 --> 00:18:54.480
and your chappel gangers happened to be mel Kiper from

287
00:18:54.640 --> 00:18:59.839
the NFL draft and Ted Cruz, us Senator for our

288
00:19:00.200 --> 00:19:05.960
state of Texas. And you're right, there is a third

289
00:19:07.400 --> 00:19:09.559
that wouldn't it? This is not it.

290
00:19:10.880 --> 00:19:11.839
You're such a dick.

291
00:19:15.720 --> 00:19:20.920
I thought that was it. That was a dick move. Look,

292
00:19:20.960 --> 00:19:22.880
I just see it as Trey has a built in

293
00:19:23.039 --> 00:19:26.400
easy Halloween costume year in, year out. If he so chooses,

294
00:19:26.440 --> 00:19:36.200
just go as Grandpa Munster. That's fucked up, Trey. Who's

295
00:19:35.960 --> 00:19:37.720
who is your third?

296
00:19:38.839 --> 00:19:40.759
I said, I people have said it, and I don't

297
00:19:40.759 --> 00:19:41.799
see it at John Cusack.

298
00:19:42.720 --> 00:19:43.839
Oh yeah, I can see that.

299
00:19:44.319 --> 00:19:50.000
Okay, Uh all right, Oh you know what that's That's

300
00:19:50.000 --> 00:19:53.599
not bad Trey. I feel like that's a loose, a

301
00:19:53.640 --> 00:19:56.839
looser interpretation, but I could see that. I see the resemblance.

302
00:19:57.319 --> 00:20:03.079
Yeah, no, much to my I just absolutely disdain Ted

303
00:20:03.160 --> 00:20:05.599
Cruz is the one that just cuts me.

304
00:20:06.079 --> 00:20:08.559
Okay, So that was going to be my next question

305
00:20:08.759 --> 00:20:14.200
of your four possible chapel gangers being mel Kiper, John Cusack,

306
00:20:14.799 --> 00:20:17.839
Senator Ted Cruz, and Grandpa Munster. Which is the one

307
00:20:17.920 --> 00:20:19.200
that angers you the most?

308
00:20:22.000 --> 00:20:24.119
It angers him so much he flies to Mexico when

309
00:20:24.160 --> 00:20:24.680
it gets cold.

310
00:20:26.400 --> 00:20:30.880
And keep in mind Trey is an ardent conservative, so

311
00:20:30.920 --> 00:20:32.200
it might hurt him in two ways.

312
00:20:32.920 --> 00:20:38.559
Yeah. And if you ever freestyle rap, Trey Prime is

313
00:20:38.599 --> 00:20:39.160
your name, bro.

314
00:20:42.920 --> 00:20:45.079
And now, so this is one of those gin alpha

315
00:20:45.160 --> 00:20:47.640
terms that I think all of us are actually like, Okay,

316
00:20:47.680 --> 00:20:49.519
this is one we can kind of get on board with.

317
00:20:49.640 --> 00:20:54.039
It's funny. It's not something stupid like a lot of

318
00:20:54.079 --> 00:20:56.759
their terms are. I mean, it was only a couple

319
00:20:56.759 --> 00:21:00.759
of months ago that I learned the actual horse word,

320
00:21:00.960 --> 00:21:04.599
the origin word for riz. Do you guys know what

321
00:21:04.640 --> 00:21:08.680
that is? Yeah, charisma, Trey got it.

322
00:21:08.799 --> 00:21:09.000
Yeah.

323
00:21:09.680 --> 00:21:13.440
Uh it took me forever to figure that out. And

324
00:21:14.119 --> 00:21:15.640
to be there, someone had to tell me.

325
00:21:15.880 --> 00:21:18.480
Figure out the source word for fucking skivity And then

326
00:21:18.480 --> 00:21:20.559
you let me know there is one for that.

327
00:21:20.640 --> 00:21:24.640
I just word for that is marijuana.

328
00:21:26.200 --> 00:21:30.039
Laced with some stuff. Yeah. Uh so, Trey, We've that's

329
00:21:30.039 --> 00:21:31.799
so funnyt your expense and I appreciate it, and I

330
00:21:31.839 --> 00:21:33.680
mean that in a good way at your expense. But

331
00:21:34.039 --> 00:21:35.960
you're the easy mark in here when it comes to

332
00:21:36.079 --> 00:21:39.480
finding celebrity lookalikes. Like there's right there, there's four and

333
00:21:39.519 --> 00:21:41.559
I only knew of three, so you gave me the fourth.

334
00:21:41.559 --> 00:21:45.240
And again, apologies to cruise. Look like contest winnings that

335
00:21:45.279 --> 00:21:47.960
you could get if somebody ever threw that party. Uh

336
00:21:48.000 --> 00:21:52.079
do the rest of us have famous lookalikes at all? Like,

337
00:21:52.200 --> 00:21:54.880
I don't think I do. Raj, I'm not sure if

338
00:21:54.920 --> 00:21:57.880
you do. And Jerry is Jerry, so I have no idea.

339
00:21:57.920 --> 00:22:02.279
I mean, right now, Terry looks more like Kurt Cobain

340
00:22:02.400 --> 00:22:03.960
at the moment with his current look with the long

341
00:22:03.960 --> 00:22:04.559
hair and goatee.

342
00:22:05.279 --> 00:22:08.039
Uh, Jerry looks like Chad Croger from Nickelback.

343
00:22:08.640 --> 00:22:12.039
Uh, that's it, Yes, all right, you pulled this up?

344
00:22:12.839 --> 00:22:14.960
Or if he shaved and put on a suit, you know,

345
00:22:15.160 --> 00:22:17.319
Buffalo Bill from the Silence of the Lambs.

346
00:22:17.839 --> 00:22:20.240
That is one that we've that's a yeah, that's a

347
00:22:20.240 --> 00:22:23.200
comparison we've We've drawn quite a bit.

348
00:22:24.079 --> 00:22:27.960
Mine would be the worst one. I can't remember the

349
00:22:28.279 --> 00:22:32.759
guy that killed the kid in Florida.

350
00:22:36.160 --> 00:22:37.839
I'm sorry you're gonna have to narrow that down.

351
00:22:39.400 --> 00:22:44.799
The standard ground the first Oh this is.

352
00:22:46.640 --> 00:22:54.759
Oh gosh, he lives in now Oh.

353
00:22:54.880 --> 00:22:57.160
I got that a lot a couple of times when

354
00:22:57.200 --> 00:23:00.519
I was on stage at the Laugh Factory, George Zimmerman. Yes,

355
00:23:01.119 --> 00:23:05.680
that's what I'm you can when I was a lot heavier,

356
00:23:05.960 --> 00:23:08.640
when my beard was all black and I was a

357
00:23:08.680 --> 00:23:13.240
little heavier, I got him a lot. They would post

358
00:23:13.240 --> 00:23:16.880
my videos on the Love Factory website. I would get

359
00:23:16.880 --> 00:23:17.680
that quite a bit.

360
00:23:20.039 --> 00:23:28.799
When he first said that, I was like, Casey Anthony, that.

361
00:23:31.559 --> 00:23:32.720
Would be an interesting one.

362
00:23:33.640 --> 00:23:36.160
Yeah, So I got that quite a bit. So I

363
00:23:36.200 --> 00:23:43.279
think mine's the worst of all of us.

364
00:23:41.000 --> 00:23:43.160
Being George Zimmerman. I would have to agree with you

365
00:23:43.799 --> 00:23:47.279
as far as who it is. And so yeah, my

366
00:23:47.680 --> 00:23:48.759
apologies there.

367
00:23:52.079 --> 00:23:54.279
At least George Zimmerman's gone away. Ted Cruise is a

368
00:23:55.240 --> 00:23:59.160
hangs hang upon me for years.

369
00:24:00.680 --> 00:24:05.680
He's he's a he's a hangnail on your side. Uh,

370
00:24:05.920 --> 00:24:07.559
let me see here if I can pull this up.

371
00:24:09.799 --> 00:24:16.319
So here's Jerry as Chad Kreeger. Okay, yep, currently pretty solid. Yep,

372
00:24:16.839 --> 00:24:19.960
all right, Jerry, you your chappel Ganger is Chad Kreeger.

373
00:24:20.119 --> 00:24:23.160
This is again this is good news because I would say,

374
00:24:23.400 --> 00:24:26.319
as that straight guy, you are the better looking version

375
00:24:26.480 --> 00:24:29.640
of him. So congratulations, he is your chapel ganger, you

376
00:24:29.680 --> 00:24:34.319
are not his. And then, Raj, this really does just

377
00:24:34.599 --> 00:24:40.960
suck for you because yes, yep, I told you. Sorry

378
00:24:41.440 --> 00:24:43.960
there it is that that that laughs not for you Russia.

379
00:24:44.359 --> 00:24:46.119
I know, man, if they do the biopic, I know

380
00:24:46.160 --> 00:24:48.920
I'm getting the I know I'm getting the part. There's

381
00:24:48.960 --> 00:24:50.039
nobody else getting it.

382
00:24:51.799 --> 00:24:57.279
I mean again, you're the better looking version. At least

383
00:24:57.279 --> 00:25:00.640
you're not at least people don't see you as George

384
00:25:00.720 --> 00:25:02.599
Zimmerman's chopolganger.

385
00:25:04.279 --> 00:25:12.880
He's a murderer like you guys, star television star, senator,

386
00:25:13.240 --> 00:25:14.559
Uh you know job.

387
00:25:14.680 --> 00:25:17.599
Yeah, but George Zimmerman's more well like than Ted Cruz.

388
00:25:18.599 --> 00:25:30.119
God jail. You may actually be right.

or we want to get to here inside the treehouse today.

397
00:26:02.279 --> 00:26:03.880
But I did want to you know, make sure I

398
00:26:03.920 --> 00:26:06.960
open this up for the possibility of you guys being

399
00:26:07.000 --> 00:26:11.880
able to run me through the ringer here, because look,

400
00:26:12.079 --> 00:26:16.559
when it comes to chapel gangers, I please tell me

401
00:26:16.599 --> 00:26:19.599
if I've got one, because I spent all morning trying

402
00:26:19.640 --> 00:26:26.039
to think. Okay, Trey was easy with you know, with

403
00:26:26.119 --> 00:26:29.839
mel Kiper I didn't realize the Ted Cruz thing. Again. Apologies,

404
00:26:30.920 --> 00:26:35.240
Jerry absolutely is Chad. Chad Kreeger from Nickelback is his

405
00:26:35.400 --> 00:26:40.000
chapel ganger Kroger. I think it's Kreeger.

406
00:26:40.480 --> 00:26:41.119
It's Kroger.

407
00:26:43.160 --> 00:26:47.920
I'll let him assume me uh. And then Raj yours

408
00:26:47.920 --> 00:26:50.640
being George Zimmerman, I think, you know, might be the

409
00:26:50.640 --> 00:26:53.519
worst of all of us. Do I have one?

410
00:26:53.839 --> 00:26:54.119
Do I?

411
00:26:54.240 --> 00:26:59.200
Because you know, is there any semi semi Is there

412
00:26:59.200 --> 00:27:01.680
any semi fan this person that I look like that

413
00:27:01.720 --> 00:27:04.319
you could be like you're the uglier version of this

414
00:27:04.359 --> 00:27:10.640
person or vice versa. Not that I can just bring

415
00:27:10.720 --> 00:27:12.680
up to mind, but I am sure there is an

416
00:27:12.720 --> 00:27:17.599
app for that. So yeah, I thought about putting my

417
00:27:17.799 --> 00:27:20.720
like putting a photo into pat GPT and saying, Hey,

418
00:27:20.960 --> 00:27:23.160
who's who's my celebrity lookalike? And I haven't had a

419
00:27:23.240 --> 00:27:27.880
chance to do that yet, Yeah, I don't see one. Yeah,

420
00:27:28.240 --> 00:27:31.720
like like even our buddy Asher, because I'm just like,

421
00:27:32.359 --> 00:27:34.759
he looks like Matt Damon. Uh, so many of our

422
00:27:34.799 --> 00:27:37.279
friends that you'd be like, ah, this person looks like that,

423
00:27:37.359 --> 00:27:40.079
Like my wife looks a little bit like Sandra Bullock,

424
00:27:41.039 --> 00:27:43.720
and so most people have if you do like the

425
00:27:43.759 --> 00:27:47.400
side by side, like, okay, yeah, I can see similarities here.

426
00:27:47.440 --> 00:27:52.079
I don't have one, not even a female one. I

427
00:27:52.079 --> 00:27:52.480
don't think.

428
00:27:54.759 --> 00:27:57.480
Yeah, I don't. I don't. I don't see it.

429
00:27:57.880 --> 00:28:00.119
Yeah, okay, I just just in case I wanted to

430
00:28:00.160 --> 00:28:06.279
be fair. But let me get back to you. You're

431
00:28:06.279 --> 00:28:08.559
gonna do something really, really bad. I can feel it

432
00:28:12.200 --> 00:28:14.559
if you think a one, let me know. In the meantime,

433
00:28:18.640 --> 00:28:22.000
speaking of not being able to tell one thing from another,

434
00:28:24.680 --> 00:28:27.920
a Filipino woman was worshiping a green statue for four

435
00:28:28.000 --> 00:28:36.240
years thinking it was Buddha. Turns out it's Shrek. Talk

436
00:28:36.240 --> 00:28:51.240
about a chapel ganger, And to be fair, like a

437
00:28:51.279 --> 00:28:55.880
little green statue of Shrek that's made to look sort

438
00:28:55.880 --> 00:28:59.400
of like the Buddha does look like the Buddha except

439
00:28:59.400 --> 00:29:06.240
for the you know, very shrek ogre like ears. You guys,

440
00:29:06.240 --> 00:29:09.720
can't see that right there, can you? All right, well,

441
00:29:09.920 --> 00:29:17.680
just believe me there for a moment. Yeah, just look

442
00:29:17.680 --> 00:29:22.000
it up on your phone. Just imagine your head, little

443
00:29:22.000 --> 00:29:24.400
fat green Shrek as boot to boom. So this I'll

444
00:29:24.400 --> 00:29:27.640
start over. The Filipino woman was worshiping a green statue

445
00:29:27.680 --> 00:29:30.400
for four years and she found out recently it's just

446
00:29:30.720 --> 00:29:34.480
the animated character Shrek, and she treated the green ogre

447
00:29:34.559 --> 00:29:38.039
figure with great reverence, saying she will continue to worship

448
00:29:38.559 --> 00:29:42.279
the kind hearted cartoon statue. I feel like this is

449
00:29:44.119 --> 00:29:47.599
an indictment on society as a whole, where a lot

450
00:29:47.640 --> 00:29:51.200
of us these days are backed into a corner and

451
00:29:51.240 --> 00:29:53.839
feel like, instead of admitting we were wrong about something,

452
00:29:53.960 --> 00:29:56.839
more than doubling and tripling down on it. So like

453
00:29:56.880 --> 00:30:00.519
in this lady's case, she's been praying to this little

454
00:30:00.559 --> 00:30:04.519
green statue of Shrek thinking it was Buddha. But she

455
00:30:04.720 --> 00:30:08.880
feels better overall, so does it really matter. I mean,

456
00:30:08.880 --> 00:30:12.640
at the end of the day, it's sort of a

457
00:30:12.680 --> 00:30:17.319
cathartic process for prayer, reflection, meditation, whatever, you know, whatever

458
00:30:17.359 --> 00:30:21.319
you do, And if she feels better praying to little

459
00:30:21.359 --> 00:30:26.160
Green Shrek, then I guess more power to her.

460
00:30:26.920 --> 00:30:29.039
Yeah, I mean at least it wasn't. At least it wasn't.

461
00:30:28.880 --> 00:30:41.480
Donkey, and I wouldn't expect any miracles. Yeah, but yeah,

462
00:30:41.519 --> 00:30:43.839
if you're just like sharing some stuff with a little

463
00:30:43.839 --> 00:30:46.880
green statue or whatever, then that makes you feel better. Fine.

464
00:30:46.880 --> 00:30:48.720
But yeah, like a lot of people pray to Jesus

465
00:30:49.039 --> 00:30:52.519
and say, you know, can you change my luck? Can

466
00:30:52.559 --> 00:30:55.519
I you know, please protect this sick fame remember, or

467
00:30:55.519 --> 00:30:57.920
something like that, and maybe it works. Sometimes it does,

468
00:30:58.079 --> 00:31:01.839
sometimes it doesn't. You don't really know. But in this case,

469
00:31:01.920 --> 00:31:03.839
you can pray to the little green Shrek and he's

470
00:31:03.880 --> 00:31:07.000
not going to cure your cat's cancer because it's Shrek.

471
00:31:08.480 --> 00:31:10.519
No, but he he would eat the cat.

472
00:31:12.440 --> 00:31:19.799
That's the problem if he was real. The woman's misplaced faith,

473
00:31:19.880 --> 00:31:22.920
of course, sparked amusement across social media. The story actually

474
00:31:22.960 --> 00:31:26.200
began four years ago when the unidentified woman from Manila

475
00:31:26.920 --> 00:31:29.720
bought a Buddhist statue from a local shop. With its

476
00:31:29.799 --> 00:31:32.599
round shape and gentle expression, she believed it to be

477
00:31:32.640 --> 00:31:37.839
a depiction of Buddha and treated it with great, great reverence.

478
00:31:39.319 --> 00:31:41.440
She placed it in a prominent spot in her home

479
00:31:41.599 --> 00:31:45.440
altar and began worshiping it daily, offering incense and praying

480
00:31:45.960 --> 00:31:49.359
in the hope of receiving blessings. However, a visiting friend

481
00:31:49.440 --> 00:31:51.799
noticed that the color and facial features of the statue

482
00:31:51.839 --> 00:31:55.079
looked quite different from a typical Buddha. Upon closer inspection,

483
00:31:55.160 --> 00:31:57.799
they discovered that the figure she had been devoutly worshiping

484
00:31:58.359 --> 00:32:01.160
was actually a three D print model of Shrek, the

485
00:32:01.200 --> 00:32:04.519
fictional green ogre from the animated film Shrek, known for

486
00:32:04.559 --> 00:32:09.079
his intimidating appearance but kind heart. On learning the truth,

487
00:32:09.079 --> 00:32:12.839
the woman was both amused and speechless, and rather than

488
00:32:12.839 --> 00:32:15.759
feeling embarrassed or upset, she laughed and said that what

489
00:32:15.880 --> 00:32:19.279
truly mattered was the sincerity of her prayers, not the

490
00:32:19.279 --> 00:32:23.039
figure itself. She added that faith with good intentions mattered

491
00:32:23.079 --> 00:32:25.680
more than appearances. Is she right?

492
00:32:27.079 --> 00:32:29.319
Well, I mean she should have known, you know, when

493
00:32:29.319 --> 00:32:31.200
she was praying that, you know, when it was answering

494
00:32:31.240 --> 00:32:33.440
back that Buddha's not Scottish.

495
00:32:34.200 --> 00:32:41.000
Uh, that's the statue doesn't talk. I don't think, Like,

496
00:32:41.079 --> 00:32:42.799
how amazing would it be if had a poll string

497
00:32:42.839 --> 00:32:46.119
and you know, to talk to her, right? That would

498
00:32:46.160 --> 00:32:47.519
have been the other clue I believe.

499
00:32:49.440 --> 00:32:53.720
Don't care if your buddhast statue has a pull string.

500
00:32:53.759 --> 00:32:54.599
We got a problem.

501
00:32:58.279 --> 00:33:00.359
We'd at least know what Mike Myers is doing for

502
00:33:00.400 --> 00:33:01.440
the last five years.

503
00:33:09.799 --> 00:33:18.279
Staying creative but just cashing those royalty checks for all

504
00:33:18.319 --> 00:33:22.440
