Pimping Podcast Producers

Chris Distefano (0:05)

What's up, everybody? Welcome back to another episode of Winter Bears. I am Chris Distefano. This is Stavi Baby. We are taking over for Tom and Bert. Once again, we did the Summer Bears. We are reluctantly, begrudgingly doing it. We're trying to get the show off the rails.

Stavros Halkias (0:24)

Yeah. No, no. I'm doing it with a smile on my face. I'm just not trying at all.

Chris Distefano (0:28)

Yes.

Stavros Halkias (0:28)

And people didn't really think we were trying by the end of last time. This will be worse. This is worse. Yes. We have maybe four talking points. We didn't prepare. It's early.

Chris Distefano (0:37)

Yeah.

Stavros Halkias (0:38)

I haven't had anything to eat. And then I had just more sugar. I'm literally crashing.

Chris Distefano (0:43)

Right.

Stavros Halkias (0:43)

I might just have a di... I might fall into a diabetic coma.

Chris Distefano (0:45)

Yes. The Jets are currently beating the Ravens 7 to nothing in the moment right now.

Stavros Halkias (0:50)

Yeah. That's going to be really funny when this comes out in like six months. They just have these in like a bank of like... If Bert has a heart attack, they'll put one of these out. These aren't even anchored to any time. They're just like, whatever, man. We just need back... You never know when we might need a substitute episode.

Chris Distefano (1:07)

Yeah, yeah. Just, you know, Bert's been dead for a year. And Leanne's just trying to get the money because she realized Bert screwed up the willy.

Stavros Halkias (1:16)

Yeah, they're trying to make it seem like... They're not trying to announce his death until they can backdate really a huge life insurance policy on Bert.

Chris Distefano (1:23)

Yeah, yeah, Bert's...

Stavros Halkias (1:25)

Actually, for real, I would be shocked if YMH is not working on just AI podcasting, where they can just plug all the stories Bert and Tom have told. They're not even going to need us.

Chris Distefano (1:36)

You have no idea how low on the priority list.

Stavros Halkias (1:39)

I respect that.

Chris Distefano (1:40)

This podcast is for Tom and Bert. I mean, literally, Tom opened up a croissant shop called like Gio Bamba something, La La Bamba. It means fat little boy in Italian. He said, I'd rather bake croissants than do the podcast.

Stavros Halkias (1:57)

Something he has no expertise in.

Chris Distefano (1:58)

No, which is actually, I mean, it's here, it's in Venice, it's in Austin, so go check it out. But it is one of those-

Stavros Halkias (2:04)

When did this start? Is he, I'm sorry, he lost weight and then got into pastries? That doesn't even make sense.

Chris Distefano (2:10)

Yeah, I know. And here's another one. He lost weight without Ozempic, I believe.

Stavros Halkias (2:14)

I don't know that that's true.

Chris Distefano (2:15)

That's true, maybe it's not. That's true.

Stavros Halkias (2:18)

He did, if he didn't do Ozempic, he like, he's on like adrenochrome. Tom is on some shit that like only rich people know about for sure. He just has an IV attached to a baby. He's getting stem cells directly from a baby. It's actually going into a pregnant lady's fucking pussy. He's just getting the stem cells. There's having a slow motion abortion into his bloodstream.

Chris Distefano (2:38)

Yeah. I mean, it is fascinating how this podcast has just become, I mean, what literally he's like, I'll do anything else. And maybe Christina was like, what about opening up a croissant shop? Like she did it as a bit. And he's like, you know what? Done.

Stavros Halkias (2:53)

He's like, let's do it.

Chris Distefano (2:54)

Yes, done.

Stavros Halkias (2:55)

Just croissants, is that all they do? I'm interested in this.

Chris Distefano (2:57)

I think it's baked goods. They says right now they're at their Fairground Food Hall below the Wells Fargo building. So if you guys are looking for a lot of, you know, I know you podcast fans are Focaccia too. Oh, Focaccia.

Stavros Halkias (3:08)

I'm a big Focaccia guy.

Chris Distefano (3:09)

Yes, if you guys are looking for a assassination attempt, you can want to go to the Wells Fargo building and go to the Fairground Food Hall and just look for the guy in the poor Osos merch and the other guy with has no shirt on who looks like a croissant.

Stavros Halkias (3:24)

I love Focaccia.

Chris Distefano (3:26)

Ah, it's the best.

Stavros Halkias (3:26)

If I had to rank my breads, we're going Focaccia. Focaccia is probably number one. And then a nice sourdough, a crusty sourdough.
