**Chris Black** (0:18)
Close the windows, How Long Gone. It's a muggy Sunday here in New York City. I just got back. Jason, I know you've been pumping, you're spying on the neighbors like a good suburban homeowner.
It sounds like the perfect Sunday from where I'm sitting, Chief.

**Jason Stewart** (0:32)
That's right, yeah. It's 11, 14 a.m. on Sunday, God's Day. I've already pumped, and I'm already kind of opening the slats of the blinds in my office and peering out to see what's going on across there. Yeah, it looks like there's a hoarder dump going on, and it's been loud.

**Chris Black** (0:50)
You're going Wilson mode. You're going Wilson mode Sunday morning, peering over, and you're seeing, now have they brought in, this is when you know it's serious. Have they rented a dumpster?

**Jason Stewart** (1:01)
They have two dumpsters and they have a truck.

**Chris Black** (1:05)
Oh shit.
Shit. Okay. Two dumpsters and a truck. Do we want to get this thing off market? Should we go over there and kind of see what they want?

**Jason Stewart** (1:13)
I think it's day three of the dump. So it's really gone. I think they really are hoarders, but they're cool people. They're like, the lady is like Austrian or something. She's probably 80 now, but she was a scuba diver in the sixties, and she has all this badass gear and cool stuff. And you could tell she used to be with it and cool and athletic and fun. And now she's old and it's depressing. It's gonna happen to you, Chris.

**Chris Black** (1:41)
Age comes for all of us. Yeah, I know, bitch. You don't have to tell me.

**Jason Stewart** (1:43)
I've seen how good your dad looks though. Nevermind. It's not gonna come for you.

**Chris Black** (1:47)
My parents do look pretty good, but I still think I could, I've done more damage to my body than they ever did. Like there's no, they couldn't catch up if they started now. You know what I mean?

**Jason Stewart** (1:57)
Yeah, but you also have done so much more, you know, therapy, group therapy, other, you know, you've done so much more for the mental that you've expanded the black brain.

**Chris Black** (2:07)
That's right, yes. Yeah, I've expanded the black brain famously.

**Jason Stewart** (2:09)
Yeah, but this is the last night of Home Alone nut hangery going on. So it's bittersweet over here. Party's over. Yeah, yesterday I was like, what am I going to wear around the house today?
Pyrex, Tiers, Shorts. Pyrex, Tiers, Shorts on at this point.

**Chris Black** (2:30)
Okay, so you got the Pyrex, Tiers, Shorts on at this point. You're the AC's on 68

**Jason Stewart** (2:37)
It's really the yin and to the yang of the Hanover green basketball short. You know, similar material, similar drawstring.
I don't know who did what first, but it seems like there's a little bit of a copycat thing going on. What do you say, Chris? Will you comment from the Hanover Corp?

**Chris Black** (2:57)
We all probably copied it from Champion, so I'll give them.

**Jason Stewart** (3:01)
I'll write that down. Champion, that's with a CH?

**Chris Black** (3:04)
Yeah, a CH, yeah, yeah, yeah. Like a victory.

**Jason Stewart** (3:06)
I think it's pretty clear that you guys ripped off Pyrex.

**Chris Black** (3:09)
I would love to rip off. I don't have any OG. Tim's the only person I know with original Pyrex, but you're saying you have the Pyrex on ice.

**Jason Stewart** (3:17)
Yeah, and I'm not afraid to really wear it out. I guess wear it.
I am literally afraid to wear it out. I won't wear it to Starbucks for crying out loud.

**Chris Black** (3:24)
I was about to say, you are scared to wear it out.

**Jason Stewart** (3:26)
Actually, if I walk around with my Pyrex tear shorts around my neighborhood, the amount of 13-year-olds who are going to finally respect me, they're like, bro, we thought you were gay this whole time.

**Chris Black** (3:36)
That's actually true. Yeah, you got the pink Erica manuals for Monday, but today it's the Pyrex.
You got to get your short rotation right to impress these teens. They're checking.

**Jason Stewart** (3:47)
I throw them off. I'm walking around with my burnt orange Eckhaus shorts, and they're like, yeah, that's pretty much what I thought. Confirmed.

**Chris Black** (3:55)
And then you're able to switch up on them.

**Jason Stewart** (3:58)
Yeah, we collect it. I guess also speaking of fashion, I was listening to Joe Budden, Joe Budden's podcast, and much like whatever it might be, Xanax or peptides, you have to cycle in and out of the Joe Budden podcast I found.
