Hey everyone, it is Tuesday, October the 26th, 2010, and you are listening to the giant bomb cast. I'm Ryan Davis joined by Vinnie Caravella. Hey, man. How are your shoulders? How's your back?

0:44.3

How's your face? I have undone all the good that was done. I went for my first massage today. Nice. And it's something I've been talking about for about five years.

0:53.3

And so you had about 45 minutes of feeling good. And now you're just all back up. I feel like I did. Yeah, I was a bummer. Let's see if we can work that out with the help of Jeff Gersterman. Hello, I'm a licensed chiropractor. And I'm ready to help you lay on the table. Please, sir. And Brad Shoemaker. I brought my magic fingers. Ah, great. I didn't know your fingers were magic. Oh, you'll find out later. Ooh. Was that an exciting episode? Shatsu or tissue? Yeah, I've never seen you.

1:23.3

You're supposed to like hurt like afterwards, right? That's supposed to be there. Isn't that the Russian stuff you're supposed to hurt for a while? Well, I mean, is that the one where ladies and high heels walk on your back? Massage is, I mean, different than chiropractor. That's, I know, but a deep. I was just talking to somebody. I got a deep. Yeah, I felt like sick afterwards because of all the toxins that were released. That's what I heard too. I was kind of hoping for that. But you grasped crystal crystals. Well, this is being done. I think that's when it's supposed to. Yeah. She did say I might be sore, but you know, I am now.

1:53.3

Judging all massages by this one person who gave me a massage. Oh, that's what a massage is. Okay. So we hold on. You should your wife just gave you a quick little shoulder rub down. She just punched me in the kidneys. That's what a massage is. Send me on the way. Yeah. Happy Monday. It felt great for a while. And once I stopped being blood after the shock wore off. No, it was an hour long, which sounds like a really long time, but it time flies by when you're thinking about all the weird things with your body that this person is now exploring.

2:23.3

I've never even touched that part. Yeah, you don't need to far avoid that part. Just move on. It's a detour sign right there. Like, oh, it feels good, but I still feel shame. Yeah, that's just, oh, nobody's been there. They're the wild. Yeah, it was cool. But I actually did want like thinking back. I want one of those like crazy. You just manhandled me. This is a huge dude. I want you to roll me into a ball and get in the white polo shirt. No, no shirt. Just like.

2:53.3

Like, Zangief style. Like, dude, Natal. That's what it goes. Hey. Yeah. No, it doesn't even speak English. Like, dog. Like, just start punching me in the back. The only words you know is like, lay down. Yeah. Okay. All right. Like a Turkish bath. Just kind of like pound the crap out of me. Because like, when she was in there, I mean, there are parts that actually hurt. And like, you know, I'm not going to be like, stop. Those felt the best after she stopped. You know, like at least the pressures.

3:23.3

So I kind of like want more of that. Maybe I'm just masochistic. I don't know. Just learning things about that. I played Super Meat Boy. That was great. That pain really came on. Anyway, enough about my massage. Never enough about your massages. I, you know, I, I may I'll go back someday. It's one of like, it's after every trip I've ever been on, like working and working around out here in California. Yeah. Crazy California with your hippie weed. Right. Uh, I've always been like, yeah, I should go for a massage after that because my shoulders are killing me and everything. I never went.

3:53.3

So I felt like this was, you know, four years built up. Mm-hmm. I thought it was just going to spill out of my mouth or something. That's how to start throwing up in the middle of. Oh, that's TGS 2009. Oh, yeah. There goes that for to interview. What? Jeff, how you doing? I'm doing all right. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know. How was your weekend? That's okay. I went out for pancakes. I ate pancakes at a firehouse. You went to a pancake?

4:23.3

How much were pancake feet? Oh, where was the pancake feet? Point razor at the firehouse. Yeah, firehouse. What is that? It was like a fundraiser. Yeah. Yeah. No, never heard of that. Like six bucks on the, you know, it's like they got. It's going to be a pancake. Hang out and have a fireman survey of pancakes and eggs and sausage and stuff. Like flapjacks. They were giving kids. They were giving kids rides and fire trucks. I thought about hanging out trying to have a bucket truck, but they were raining out. So no, that the plate sounds like a weekend. Ender anyway. And that was Sunday.

4:53.3

Good morning. So the rest of Sunday, just went straight out the window. We were just like, God's nap time. I like the smell of a firehouse. Like there's like a weird plastic rub. There's a rubber smell to everything that I really enjoy. I think I could identify the smell of the firehouse. There's more of a breakfast smell. Yeah, all the other foods there. So it wasn't really they had all the trucks outside. You know, it's like people eating where the trucks are normally parked to go smell the trucks. I did not smell the trucks. It was raining. It was raining really hard. So it's a bummer. Yeah, the smell of the trucks probably wouldn't want to walk.

5:23.3

It was washed off in the rain. That new truck smell. My dad was a volunteer fireman. So I used to go and smell the trucks. Ah, a lot. Was that in the foods ball table? Was that his job? Well, that foods ball table smell like the smell of the truck. Was he a truck smeller? No, but they had they had clean up every week or they had just washed the trucks every week. So we'd go hang out. Fire has to have awesome bars. I don't know if you got to see the bar or the firehouse. I feel like that's like in the stipulation. Like the fireman's bar awesome bar like in the firehouse. Yeah, I don't know. I didn't see any of that. I kind of crazy.

5:53.3

People have bars in the workplace. Yeah, it seems wildly guys have to put out fires, you know. If you're going to if you're going to be putting out a firemise, we'll have one or two in you. That's a good point. I see some holes in logic, but I'm going to let it. I totally felt like when I was growing up, it's like, yeah, fuck yeah, like you got especially volunteer fireman back. Like you're like, oh, finally, I'm doing this. Like, I'm just like, I'm not even getting paid. I got to put out some fires. Risking out a couple of shots. Oh, fuck yeah, it's the least you could do. Yeah, I just make a good

6:23.3

braver plus they can like blow fireballs. Well, like, I don't know, try to dig the flask out of their suit when they're just like, no, I got to get there. They're fun guys at that firehouse. They were bunch of fun. Man, they could drink. They could probably help. Yeah, I'm a big huge barbecue. Yeah, totally. They're great bunch of chilly. Firehouse, chilly. Yeah. Great Christmas parties. You know, pancake feeds at the firehouse. Pretty regularly. Yeah, this is the first time I've ever been to a pancake feed. It was just like the word feed. Just

6:53.3

brings to mind like a trough. You know, I could have gone back up and gotten more. I opted not to. It's like for each would do it. Yeah, the, you know, and yeah,

7:03.3

the Kwanis club. Yeah, the Kwanis would do would do a pancake feed guys that would wear a fizz and think about civics. What was what was the

7:12.0

Shriders, right? Yep. What was your, what was your like charity fundraiser food event of your youth? I don't know what that means. Clearly, there has to be like,

7:21.4

I've got to have some kind of like, you know, waffle a waffle. Um, I don't think I've actually feed or like plenty of stuff like that around,

7:29.2

but I have literally never ever been to one. You're even at least aware of that stuff. Yeah, I think we did more, we did more distributed fund raising,

7:36.2
