Hey, everybody out there, and welcome back to everybody's favorite podcast.
This is R U Garbage.
Oh, yeah.
It's that little show we sit there with your favorite comedians,
and we find that it's good to be classy.
Yeah.
But they're just a big old piece of trash.
Trash, trash, trash.
I'm your host, H. Foley, coming at you on a beautiful day.
We're out back here at Tootie's in the new edition.
She just picked up a new mountain bike.
Okay.
She's been riding around the neighborhood, knocking over people's trash cans.
All right.
She's got the Gagliardi house about 4 o'clock this morning.
Fair enough.
Michael is coming at you right next to me.
He is the CEO of R U Garbage.
He is an international businessman and my best pal in the whole wide world.
Give it up for KJ, Kevin James Ryan, everybody.
What up, gang?

You go over there, you get all that bonus content, gang.
And gang, we couldn't be more excited to have our incredibly, and I mean
incredibly, special guest back with us again today.
One of Tootie's favorites in the studio.
Bit of a heartthrob.
Yeah, he's the Greek god of aftershave.
You can hear him every week on the Giannis Papas side.
We're giving it up for Giannis Papas, everybody.
There he is.
Always good to be back in Tootie's in the heart of Philly.
Cherry Hill.
The edition never changes, but Foley's watches do.
Oh, yeah.
That was a gift, I believe, right?
Seiko, yeah, a gift.
Oh, it's Seiko?
Yeah, it's a Seiko.
I like that.
Before the show, you take your Rolex off, you put your Seiko on for the show.
I don't trust you bums as far as I can tell you.
Tootie's on new medication, that's the problem.
I tuck my chain in when somebody comes in.
I pull it out.
You're a silver guy.
I know how to dress up a t-shirt.
You do?
Is that supposed to be like that?
No, it always falls backwards, but then I ended up liking it backwards.
The way it hangs.
Yeah, and I figured should I get across, but I feel like that's too much of a
strong statement.
This kid screwballs.
I like it.
Is there an agnostic symbol you can put on your chain?
Chains drop hard.
Just a guy going like this?
Yeah, just a guy going, what do you think?
I had a dragon at one point.
Did you have a dragon?
Seventh grade charm.
We called them charms.
Jeans.
And a charms hit big.
Shout out DMX.
Yeah, your level of fucking scum, gum on the bottom of my shoe, Philly trash,
that shows
up in your photos.
I can smell your photos.
You walked right into it, Yanni.
We got a couple for you.
I have a couple.
I've been posting these throwback Thursday pictures of me as a younger dirt bag.
Yeah.
Yanni's first one in.
Yeah.
All the time.
Yeah.
So I have a couple in the hopper that I haven't posted yet.
Can't wait.
Right?
Because you're a bit of a fashionable guy.
Well, I mean, stylish kid.
If you consider a t-shirt with chain out fashionable, yeah.
With a broken chain hanging.
When did you get your first pair of Jordans?
Were you rocking Jordans back in the day?
Yeah, since I was a little kid.
Yeah.
But I am the type of guy that when an event comes up, family or otherwise, I
have to take
a trip to Banana Republic.
You got to go get the knock around.
I got to go get the one thing that I need to wear.
Fresh.
I don't own it.
And any time I get one, it only lasts about a year before my body changes out
of it.
Sure.
You're familiar.
It's really-
It gets a week, dude.
No, yeah.
The body doesn't have time to catch up.
It's always stains that get me.
Oh, it's the stains that get me.
Oh, that goddamn olive oil.
Yeah.
That Marcella sauce sticks.
I'll tell you that.
You can't get the olive oil out, and it's frustrating because it technically is
translucent, kind
of transparent, but it's just thicker.
It jams me up, man.
It's not good.
Every shirt.
Every time I go out to dinner, I wear a new shirt.
I count that into the cost of the dinner because I know the shirt.
My waistline jams me up.
I'm surprised you're-
You're pretty thin today, though.
You're walking low.
It fluctuates.
You don't hang on to them when you get back down?
I do, but by that time, they got a couple mothball holes.
The bell bottoms aren't in anymore.
Yeah, bell bottoms aren't in.
Mothball holes?
Where are you living?
I got the wrong season.
You know, I got like a beige, but I'm in January.
I got a christening.
Do you know about-
I'm sorry.
Do you know about all that?
Do you know when to wear what as far as colors?
Yeah, I think you go darker in the winter.
Uh-huh.
And I think you go pink when you get-
Don't wear red in LA either.
And some of it is locational.
Sure.
Yeah.
Philly, don't matter.
Don't matter.
Don't matter in Philly.
As long as you got-
Sweats and a blazer.
Put a McNabb jersey on and you're good to go.
I went to a one-year-old birthday party of my wife's friend this weekend in the
encompassed
area of Philly, which is Jersey.
Sure.
They're very Philly cultured.
It was a Philly-themed one-year-old birthday party-
Oh, shit.
For a kid that I could clearly tell is going to grow up to be-
It's the father's-
It was the father's wish, pushing it on him.
Really?
Baseball cookies.
Oh, he's really throwing-
He's pulling out all the stops.
Yeah.
Big league chew, grab bags, and everyone was wearing Philly jerseys.
Yeah.
We love it.
What did you wear to that?
I wore-
I might be wearing the same outfit.
Yeah, I might be in the same outfit.
I was kind of shorts in it.
I was kind of on's, the new comfortable on's.
Oh, yeah.
All the clouds or something.
They're Swedish or Norwegian or something.
Okay.
Yeah.
And an unhappy look on my face.
Sure.
No, you didn't go Jersey.
You stepped out of it.
Well, it wasn't-
No, you don't wear a jersey.
No, I'm not.
I wasn't close enough to the crew.
Gotcha.
Yeah.
And plus, I would have shown up in a Yankee jersey, would have started a brawl-
Fist fight.
Fist fight at a one-year-old birthday party.
Top show up.
You're beating up a five-year-old.
I'm talking about baseball cake.
Uh-huh.
He hit the baseball cake with the bat.
Sure.
It was full Philly.
I don't think anyone there had a passport, to be honest with you.
How was the grub?
How was the spread?
The grub was good.
It was good?
Yeah.
It's an Italian family, so the grub was excellent.
Nice house?
It was in a banquet hall.
Oh.
It was in a banquet hall.
I can smell that place.
Yes.
A banquet hall that needed a reno.
A lot of them do out there.
A banquet hall.
Yeah.
Banquet halls.
They got chafing dishes that are about 45 years old.
Yeah.
I mean, this place, I mean, it looked like Tootie's.
It was a little, like a lot of plank wood.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
I don't think they changed it since the 80s.
The sternos are just zippos.
Yeah.
Just running.
We went into the game room, and they had the basketball shoot, but it was a
carpenter
made it, so it was like built out of wood and painted black, and one of the rims
was
down.
Yeah.
Somebody dunked on it.
Somebody.
Yeah.
The kids were crawling all over it.
Chain net.
Yeah.
They had a Star Wars video game.
Video game.
Really?
It was a really, I don't think it's changed since the 80s.
I'm always amazed with those places.
All of a sudden, the kitchen is just there, and the kitchen looks like no one
has ever cooked
in it since the 50s.
Well, because their business is so sporadic in a banquet hall, right?
Yeah.
It's so seasonal.
You're doing what?
You're doing proms.
You got, yeah.
Proms, christening, Easter.
We do our Christmas parties out.
My family's so big, we have to have one.
We rent one out in Philly, and our Christmas party's there.
It's a real middle class, like, jamboree.
Yeah.
Get to get a banquet hall.
Oh, yeah.
Because you can't really bring people over to the home, because then you got to
take
the seats off the covers.
Oh, you can't be taking a plastic off the couch, the whole nine yards.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
People wearing their dirty shoes in your rec room.
It's like having a party on a basketball court.
It is, yeah.
You know what I mean?
Sometimes even, like, the basketball net's, like, raised up to the ceiling,
like, it's
a gym.
Yeah, yeah.
But before we get into it, what were some, because you grew up, you know, you
were of
age in the 80s, right?
You were a teenager in the 80s?
90s.
90s.
Jesus Christ.
I'm sorry?
From my 50s?
I'm close, though.
Yeah, I wasn't, I didn't say the 60s.
You weren't off, yeah.
You weren't off in that place.
Walking around in a zoot suit, listening to Cab Calloway.
You're flashing.
You make the scene, right, Yanni?
Yeah, my first appearance was at Night at the Improv on fucking.
Who books that, by the way?
He's not alive, whoever it is.
Looking back, what was one choice where you were, like, that, like, because
specifically
at that time, fashion choices were very, they were big swings.
Huge swings.
Huge, like, the fucking Z Cavalier, something.
Like, what was the, where you look back, like, damn, that was a tough one.
I think I was part of the generation that made the switch from shoe to sneaker,
where
sneaker became socially acceptable.
On a suit, like?
Suit, just any, no, not on a suit yet.
That came later.
That came 2000s.
That was, that was, that was hip hop did that.
Yeah, that was 2000s.
Once Jay-Z started wearing suits and, like, button ups.
But sneakers, like, all the time, you know, like, going to school in sneakers.
A lot of schools, you weren't supposed to wear shoes.
Really?
Yeah, but, like, then the sneaker, I was.
You weren't supposed to wear shoes.
Yeah, like, my family would always give me a hard time about sneakers.
To put on a sneaker, you're going out.
It was like a civil rights movement for sneakers, and I was part of it.
Yeah.
They were at the sit-ins?
What, you only wore your sneakers when you got to gym class?
You'd throw your Chuck Taylors on or whatever they were.
Well, jeez, you guys are making me in the 50s again.
He's shooting underhanded and shit.
Ooh-ah, ooh-ah, ooh-ah.
I got my draft card.
God damn it.
They pulled my number.
They sent me to Vietnam.
Ba-ba-da-ba-boom.
Great era of music.
Oh, the best.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I was talking to one of my cousins.
We were asking the kids last weekend when I was home.
I was like, what are you guys listening to?
People would ask people that.
The one kid was like, I want to listen to 60s and 70s all classic rock.
I'm like, you're going to be all right.
I think I do that, too.
I always put on, like, 70s rock.
It's a great era.
It's good.
It's easy.
Easy listening.
Timeless, too.
It's nice.
Real timeless.
Yeah.
I realize we're getting older because I saw Seinfeld last night was on TV Land.
Whoa.
That's it.
Yeah.
I'm a big Me TV guy.
Do you know what that is?
No.
What?
Me TV?
Me TV.
It's real old school stuff.
Gilligan's Island, All in the Family, MASH.
It's running all day.
It's okay.
Yeah.
Once you start watching those, I think you're officially older.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Once you start doing nostalgia watching.
They don't make them up.
I watched an episode of the Jetsons the other day.
Whoa.
Yeah.
It was on.
It was available.
I think they have them, like, on Hulu or whatever.
I went down.
They predicted a lot of stuff, right?
They really did, dude.
They really think about it.
Sure.
Yeah.
She's got, like, automatic buttons everywhere.
Dishwasher and stuff like that.
D
