KB (0:44)

Episode 520

Nick (0:47)

Not bad. Milestone.

Sohrab Forouzesh (0:49)

You guys have done 520 episodes?

Nick (0:51)

No, we started on like 200, but with us still done-

Sohrab Forouzesh (0:54)

Still 300 episodes?

KB (0:55)

I know.

Nick (0:56)

Yeah, I guess so.

Sohrab Forouzesh (0:57)

That's crazy.

Nick (0:59)

Yeah, that's too many.

KB (1:00)

I guess we are pretty crazy.

Nick (1:02)

Yeah, we're fucking nuts for doing this.

Sohrab Forouzesh (1:04)

We're kind of badass. Yeah, we're bad boys.

Nick (1:05)

How many years has this been going on? Six.

KB (1:08)

Six years.

Nick (1:09)

Holy shit.

Owen Roeder (1:10)

Yikes.

Sohrab Forouzesh (1:11)

You guys are Star Trek, man. Star Trek's got like... I don't know about Star Trek. I actually truly don't.

Nick (1:19)

I don't know anything about Star Trek.

Owen Roeder (1:20)

Me neither.

Nick (1:21)

Oh, we're here with Sohrab.

Owen Roeder (1:22)

Oh, hi.

Sohrab Forouzesh (1:23)

Are we recording? Yes. Are we live?

Nick (1:24)

Yeah, we're live.

KB (1:25)

We are live.

Sohrab Forouzesh (1:25)

Remember that sign that almost killed you?

KB (1:27)

Yes.

Nick (1:27)

Right before this, if Kyle seems a bit skittish, we had a brush with disaster, the very sharp anus metal sign came down. It was almost like a final destination kind of thing.

I almost got your neck.

KB (1:38)

It almost sliced my face and neck off.

Nick (1:39)

Yeah. That would suck if you lost your neck.

KB (1:42)

That's all I have, or all I want to have.

Nick (1:45)

He's been working out his neck. He wants wide neck.

Sohrab Forouzesh (1:48)

Wait, are you serious?

KB (1:48)

Yeah.

Sohrab Forouzesh (1:49)

Have you been attaching the weights to it and doing this? Yes.

KB (1:52)

I've been neck-pilled.

Sohrab Forouzesh (1:55)

So you just want a thick neck, nothing else?

Nick (1:57)

You've been neck-pilled for about three years.

Sohrab Forouzesh (1:58)

I want it all.

KB (1:59)

I want everything.

Nick (2:01)

You just want to be wide.

KB (2:02)

I want to be wider, yes. I have a thin frame. I want to be wider.

Sohrab Forouzesh (2:06)

But for why? What's the end game? To what end?

Nick (2:10)

Yeah, why do you want to be wide?

Sohrab Forouzesh (2:11)

I've never asked why.

Owen Roeder (2:12)

I guess probably because width is the one thing you have control of.

Sohrab Forouzesh (2:14)

I don't know.

KB (2:15)

I have the lifestyle habits of somebody who actually does things.

Nick (2:20)

What do you mean by that?

KB (2:21)

Well, I don't do things. But I dress and lift like I'm going to be out in public, but I'm just a gentle recluse.

Nick (2:32)

You are a gentle recluse.

Owen Roeder (2:33)

Like a spider?

Sohrab Forouzesh (2:34)

Like a spider?

Nick (2:34)

I was going to say spider.

KB (2:35)

No, like a hermit.

Nick (2:36)

But you're still a freak.

KB (2:38)

I am a freak, undeniably.

Sohrab Forouzesh (2:41)

Sexually?

KB (2:42)

No.

Sohrab Forouzesh (2:43)

No, no, no.

KB (2:44)

What else is it?

Sohrab Forouzesh (2:46)

What else could you be a freak in if it's not sexual? In the kitchen?

Nick (2:50)

No.

Sohrab Forouzesh (2:50)

No.

Nick (2:51)

You have freak habits.

KB (2:52)

I have freak habits.

Sohrab Forouzesh (2:53)

Like what?

KB (2:55)

I'm like, I'm socially like a-

Sohrab Forouzesh (2:59)

You're socially freaky. He's a social freak. Like a Buddhist forest monk. You're choking people when they're trying to talk to you.

Nick (3:03)

He...

KB (3:05)

Yes.

Yes. I'm a...

Nick (3:08)

You try. God bless your soul.

KB (3:09)

I like to touch necks. I like to choke. And, um...

Nick (3:16)

If a Barstool fan is photographing Kyle, Kyle chokes him. He'll put his hand around their neck and give them a little squeeze.

Sohrab Forouzesh (3:21)

Yeah. You're like a conversational David Carradine. That's crazy.

Nick (3:24)

Oh, my God. Yeah. God rest his soul, too.

Owen Roeder (3:26)

You know who else does the choke thing in photos is Chris Brown.

Nick (3:29)

Does he?

Sohrab Forouzesh (3:29)

Oh, yeah, he does. It's patch wild for a guy with allegations. Yeah, that's right. Yeah.

Nick (3:34)

Are they allegations at this point?
