I'm gonna get real weird with it. That's getting weird. Let's get where? Where getting where?

Are you ready to get weird? With Hoodie and Erica listening already? Because you're listening to the hundred and thirty ain't episode of Let's Get Weird? And it's not Star Wars Day, but Hoodie, it is Star Stars Week, baby, And you know what I'm heaving. Did I send you that TikTok? Sorry TikTok? Did I send you that one that I that I saw the other day? Or no? Was it the one with the one I was telling you about how I saw the shirt? And I want to know.

I want it and I can't find it. I'm gonna pivot and you know what I'm gonna have a game right off the bat for us to play. Can you name the character Kevin, You're not Kevin, You're Eric's all right, No, I can't name the character. I can name the characters. The characters, all right. We'll get to that in a little bit. But my name's somebody. My name is Eric. And every week we

come together to give you the weird stars from our lives. The world, Montgomery County, the universe is specifically Montgomery County, the universe, the skies above, and we have a good old time. Last week, you know, we had a good time just talking about the lives, talking about me giving up the Funko chase. Have you though? I think so. I'm not gonna lie. I went to an antique shop though this weekend. Wait, and I was very tempted to buy a fun Wait wait, wait wait.

I saw one on TikTok. I don't know if it was real old or new. M uh Amazon, Yeah, have you seen this one? The funkom was on exclusive of Asoka. Oh yeah, that one's been that's been a thing goes in and out. Yeah, it's Asoka Tano from Star Wars Rebels. I would bring you, brought you back into It looks nice, though the so on look is probably the nicest, Like Funco to like animation to live action, it's had um. But so I was at a

wedding this weekend. More I was like in the wedding, so like for five hours, I had random free time in in Cold Pepper area to myself. So I went Antiqui and they had a Harry Potter Funco Pop that was him in the sorting hat. It was cool, it was cute, and I was like, that was a perfect Halloween thing. I bought it and I was like, you know, and I said to myself, we said this week we weren't buying any more Funco pop. So I did put it back that close, So that why did you put it back? Because I

was like, I'm gonna be hyper hyper hypocrite, hypocrite, hypocrite. Come here on, let's get weird this Tuesday talking about how I got a Harry Potter Funcle Pop. Are you going to be hypocrite orre you just gonna you'd be like Eric, like I want to get the too. I mean, you're not wrong, You're not wrong. And you know what I forgot today because I was so tired I forgot the Super Mario Bros. Movie to bring

it. So, Eric, did you get delivered both our copies of the Super Wait, super Mario Bros. The movie, which is the different is the one from the nineties. The Super Mario Bros. Movie is the one from this with John Nickazamo and who is Mario with Bob Hoskins. Bob Hoskins, who's also in Who Frame Roger Rob Me oh Sis. He's in a bunch of other movies too. But yeah, and it came earlier than was supposed to say on Amazon. It just showed up on a Friday. But

it's not like surprised. You're like, oh, yeah, I'll be here in two weeks. And it comes here like two days, Like what happened? And I totally forgot about two people canceled the orders? What the hell? You know what I'm saying. I found there's a store in Culpepper, Maryland that is an Amazon. There's a Culpepper, Maryland too. Yes, Maryland and Virginia just copied each other. Yeah right, I don't know.

But there's like an Amazon. You know those those Amazon stores where they have all those boxes returned items and you just go and bins and go that's weird. Yeah, there's one around here. We should go do it. Like how far is that? I don't like? I find it again because there's again another tik tach. You could do that next week if I love these tic tachs, man, that'll be fun. Because but here's the thing, Like you see what's in the boxes, you just grab whatever the boxes and

you can't open the box. Is one of those things where like it's line and you're racing against the Yes, I don't know like that. I don't like that. They're rushed. Then you get stuff you don't want. But everything's eight bucks no matter what the size of the boxes. And the girl and the one video that they they've got a pair of um air pods, actual AirPods, actual AirPods. Well the box, look at actual air pods. Know what it was? Could be like a third party, could be

cocaine, for all we know, cocaine. Cocaine made it look like air pods. Here's the thing. I only know what cocaine looks like thanks to secession. They barely does it all season two. You know, I'll catch it up season two. I got through the I'm trying to make the episode of Holly Hunter from the mom from Alasta Girl, the voice of Alasta Girl. Yeah, and that was an episode where they're in the lockdown. M I was like, oh, I was skeptical of that security guard that was

in that room with them, right. I was like, I got all right, I don't know that guy. He might be a bad guy. Good time. I was like, we're getting some degrassy level issue right here at Secession. Can I can I say something I brought a Secession. I don't want to finish it, like I don't want to apisode, but I don't want to finish it like I don't want to watch the new episodes that end the series because I love the show so much that I don't want it

to end. I had someone podcast I listened to made a reference to Secession. I was like, I get these now, I understand what they're talking about. I love it, um, But yeah, Secession has been good. I watched three episodes that and ANTIQUI all waiting to go to the Sucked In and Succession. It's also a good show to like, you don't need to that's it. You can one hundred percent pay attention. But I was like doing something at the same time and you still understand what's going on because

it's not like action. It's just talking, right, But it's also like it's a it's a modern day Game of Thrones. We're like, you know, what's Romulus Roman? What do you want? And the guy from Oh you didn't watch that show number which show? Uh not? It's not shrinking? Yeah, but you know what's his face is also in that Matthew McConaughey movie was guy Ritchie what the gentleman Kendall Kendall. Yeah, he's the he's the mean guy Frog Might hisstic guys or whatever. Adams Severance, the guy

one of the guys from Severance is, uh, what's Severance? Where is this guy? Oh? The HBO movie TV show one of the like sidekicks. I guess you could say on that he's on secession, like, oh, this is the path he got to like get in a side like a main side character role. Yeah. Yeah, it's good, good times, good time. You know, it's also good times. We might live with

each other, not with each other, but next to each other. So Eric has really tempted me, mainly to get more to convince her to live next to Eric and his complex, and so yesterday I brought the packets tomorrow of info and it's on the docket. But she needs to tour the place first. That's fine, I'll give you a tour. Here's the thing. I was like, Oh, we could just go to Eric's place and you're because I mean you live there, yeah, and go inside, and she's

like, no, but I want to see the place. I'm like, but we just need we don't need to do a tour. Tour apartment. Go check it out, Go check it out. Be neighbors, come on by. The only problem is there's no pool, which at this point like it's like, but we got a pool. Oh, yes, we did. We do have access, and I'm friends with them now exactly, so we got something. You're just going, Hey, I'm going over to so

and So's house. You gonna come with Yeah, like we live with each other, it's fine, So could we carp I don't want to carp it with you in the morning because I want to get to get her earlier. Yeah, I don't want to get her earlier, or I'd get here later. And then the showing, the showing cops on. So the only thing we're debating now is price versus location. So it's interesting dilemma we're doing. Now, Yeah, go out farther to live cheaper. Yep, does that

think? Well, it's really gonna like Potomac Yards area right now, there's Potomac Yards like Arlington, Alexandria, that area. I don't know what that area is spread by, like Reagan, sort of by Reagan, but on Crystal City is but the oh the Virginia's why they called Potomac Yards. That's what the the properties called blank Potomac Yards. That's so dumb. I think, did it not called Crystal City anymore? Then? I think that.

I think that's like the neighborhood of Crystal Crystal City has got isn't it getting changed when they build the Amazon thing? Thought some more kind of wants to move into that place before Amazon. I mean, I don't know if Amazon's fully they're not at this they're building that. It seems like it's been forever since the Amazon was going to Crystal City. Um, there's I don't really

need to know. With a strip closed city. It's right there by the highway, right, So we're looking at that that one bedroom in a den is the same price as a two bedroom and within your complex, so square footage, mora, you're gonna have more space, but it's right by Reagan and more like flies a lot for work. They're saying, yeah, it takes thirty minutes to get for Reagan from my place. True, that is

true. If I did tell more of this too, because she's a United gal, I was like, so you can't go to Dollars if we're like in Crystal City, that's like an extra twenty five minute. I know, because she's like because she has points on United, like girl, and she's like, I'm gonna make that sacrifice. And that's a long sacrifice. That is a whole man. It's like, we live closer to a Dullas right now, but if we moved in, like they're not going to Dullas anywhere.

Yeah, because United, it's Delta and American mostly Flatt of Reagan and Southwest after blow. Yeah, it's all the cheaper ones. Well, because it's a small runway, that's why. And then if you want to go internationally, get to go. Yeah, oh my god, don't don't don't do this to me because if you know, it is in considered. So we have like a list now and so it's that one our old place. Legit, our old apartment is up like someone moved is moving out when we

would want to move in again the one you just left. Really but it's so it's now like the same, like twenty three hundred instead of twenty four hundred. And as if we could go back, we know how to live in that apartment style. We're good to go. But you have so much more room with my place. You've got a den, you've got two bedrooms, You've got two We agreed we didn't need the dens. We did get, but the den could be your podcast area. But why would I need

the second bedroom one? Because in the second bedroom could be her area for when people come over, as just her second bedroom for friends. You gotta play like this. Probably listen to me. Listen to me, because living with a woman, they want to have um an area that they can create and make for like people to come over. So you've got now your podcast room is your second bedroom. The first thing you see is the podcast room. We know there's a door. There's a door. You can keep the

door were clothes and you can cover the windows in. You can close it off, or you can make it make it be spectacular, whatever you want. But she then now has another room to make her own for that her friends that came over and feel comfortable. I've learned this with my sister, with my mom, with my brother's wife, With almost every girlfriend I've had, they always want to have like a room that they can have. Trust me, you know, we want a man den or a man cave or

whatever. Women want a women wing or what was that one thing they called him that commercial, the guy State farm commercial or the thing cut on fire and the guy had to rebuild it. Whatever she shed. Yeah, there you go. They want a she room just saying I'm just saying, we'll photo back with her. But it's in the top five rings. So you made it to the top five. Oh my god, will you make it to the final four? We'll find out, you know. And also too,

you've got you've got area to walk the dog. Got a lot of areas let them go poop and pee for Teddy. There's a lot of dogs in the neighborhood can hang out with you. You can hang out with me. There's a great dog parking cat been John Park. You can if you and Max can essentially just have Teddy essentially is half chihuahua. Right, Yeah, there you go. You guys just get to watch Teddy. Yeah, but it's not me, buppy, it's you trying to coax the white feet.

It is just saying that you as a as a as a built in dog sitter slash, take away the watcher as its benefits. M hm. And you got a great deck. You can leave Teddy on and hang out and put a little kennel out there for him. Don't do that, baby, he's inside. He needs that boogie, he needs that cop well, he needs that that rug. I need to get a new rug. Speaking of rugs, Jesus, I need to get a new floor foot to the area rug or whatever. My john used to look white. Now it's like

getting a little How long have you had that nine years? Well that makes sense. Yeah, we're already our rug thing that goes under a couch for like, yeah, we need to get a new one. This is like it's not as soft as it used to be. It's flat, it's lost all of its plush. Yeah, that's a problem that too, man. This is making me so happy now. I was in a bad mood today, woke up on the wrong side of the bed, didn't get enough sleep. But now talking to my heads, potentially, but again not more.

If you're listening to this, you can do whatever you want. I won't be upset. I appreciate you and Andrew, but thank you for considering me. And I'm just saying you can have your she room downstairs. But do you get a referral if we do anything? You know about that? I have no idea. Probably that's what we did with Camden. But when we lived in our old place, More convinced her two sorority sisters to move in and we got five hundred dollars each they moved in, so that was a

great off. Frind Right, No, we probably we probably do get our electric. Our maintenance guy just lit the it's like the exterminator in that's cool. Sorry, you any exterminator for your place? Yeah? They have, they have bugs. They have come on like every six months to make sure everything for that that's with your apartment, that's part of your apartment fees.

Like last week they came to change the fire extinguishers. Yeah, and then he checked the you know they change the fire signatures and then they twas before that they checked the what are they called fire alarms. Thank you. The only downside is we'd have to change all of our licenses. Do you have to? I don't think you do. I think if you commute you're fine. But right, but I'm in Maryland and then working in Maryland. All right, because in the Maryland taxes are better than Virginia taxes on that.

Yeah, you can checked that out. Because Maryland taxes are a little better when it for work. Yeah, because we don't have like three of the taxes that you pay. The car tax is gone and something else is gone. The Commonwealth tax is a Commonwealth taxes. They just taking my money. You know what I'm saying. You know what I'm saying. You live in Virginia. I know I'm saying. By commonweal if we can't even get married by my grandpa, Come on, Maryland, you could. That's stupid.

Anyway, Going from something stupid is something fun. Yes, random Amazon generator. We're playing Amazon Roulette where every product I see. We found this game last week. We're gonna do it today.
