Highlights
The mobile-vs-PC gripe.
CEELOS's real frustration wasn't personal — it was a new sticker activation that only worked on desktop. "In 2026, if you're putting out any type of product, you need to make sure... it works on both PC and mobile," he said, admitting he threw a quiet "temper tantrum as a grown ass man over digital stickers" while the gold packs sold out.
RIP the Chemex.
Rushing out the door, he clipped his water kettle and cracked the Chemex he'd brewed on for over a decade — his first broken one in 23 years of coffee. "It's not about the money, it's more about the sentiment," he said, dreading tomorrow morning's coffee routine.
Baked, licensed therapist.
After the venting, Baked deadpanned, "You are in therapy, sir," and CEELOS ran with it — picturing Baked virtually beside him in a La-Z-Boy, notepad out, leg crossed, "bifurcals" on.
A tender Wayback moment.
CEELOS shared why he was heading home early: a late-night conversation with his wife had stirred up hard childhood memories for both of them. He spoke warmly and openly about growing up around gangs, stepping into an older-brother role, and the friends who didn't make it — "maybe in a different timeline I didn't make it, but in this timeline, I'm here."
"OnlyFans at home."
Asked if he has AC, CEELOS: "Hell no... we have only fan only fans. We got OnlyFans at home, bro." Baked's follow-up — "when your mom says they got OnlyFans at home" — sealed the bit.
Cat diplomacy.
Both compared spoiled, food-obsessed cats — Baked's staging elaborate meows over a half-full bowl, CEELOS pretend-nudging his heat-flattened cat just to confirm it's still breathing.
The 204 revelation.
CEELOS explained he's the heaviest he's ever been — but only because his last job underpaid and overheated him into one meal a day for 20 years. Now "properly compensated" and eating normally, the scale read 204: "I thought the scale was broken."
SLICK RIC checks in.
He arrived fresh off work in the heat with his own saga — a freak wave at the Santa Cruz boardwalk ripped his shoulder out of socket, ballooning him to 225 on a 5'8" frame, plus a right-side back surgery coming Monday. Baked, who spent a year in a full-body cast after slipping a vertebra in middle school, agreed you have to stay active to heal 49:02.
Getaway sticks.
Riffing on a strong-legged "one-legged monster" who out-deadlifts everyone, CEELOS defended his skater legs: he's got no "getaway sticks" — "even though I have used them to get away many a time."
"I'm waiting for you at the front door."
CEELOS savored the small stuff — his son sprinting to him at school pickup, and his 16-year-old telling him she was waiting at the door "like I used to do when I was a baby" — a reminder that "you never know when is the last time that's gonna happen."
The great sock debates.
A long, fond tangent on first-day-of-school flexes: Nike Elite socks color-coordinated so no two friends matched, DVS shoe call-dibs, Janoskis that hurt but let you "feel the board," and CEELOS's rule — "the higher the socks, the downer the fool."
"I chose the NFTs."
Baked revealed his ex helped cure his hoarding — and when it came down to his NFT stuff or her, he chose the NFTs. CEELOS, meanwhile, confessed to keeping project box tape, tissue paper, and stickers in a dedicated closet shrine 1:07:11.

Notable quotes
In 2026, if you're putting out any type of product... it needs to work on both PC and mobile.
You're dealing with it emotionally. You know? You are in therapy, sir.
Maybe in a different timeline I didn't make it, but in this timeline, I'm here.
Hell no... we have only fan only fans. We got OnlyFans at home, bro.
I don't got no getaway sticks. Even though I have used them to get away many a time.
And I chose the NFTs.
Who said what
- CEELOS (@CEELOSFIGG, host) — Carried the episode as chief venter: broken Chemex, mobile-drop gripe, coffee-roasting craft, LA heat, skating, fatherhood, and collectibles hoarding. Warm and reflective throughout.
- Baked (@Bakedmetax, co-host) — The steady sounding board and comic foil; shared his own HVAC-work wear-and-tear, back-cast recovery, cat antics, and ran the closing announcements.
- SLICK RIC (@richj530) — Dropped in mid-show with injury and weight-gain stories and news of Monday's back surgery, before heading off to grab his kids.
Worth a full listen
- 12:01–20:12 CEELOS's unguarded reflection on his and his wife's childhoods, the friends he's lost, and stepping into a role he didn't ask for. The recap can flag it, but the tone is the point.
- 46:56–51:31 The three-way injury-and-recovery exchange once SLICK RIC arrives lands somewhere between commiseration and locker-room ribbing, capped by the "getaway sticks" bit.
- 56:20–1:02:55 The full nostalgia run on first-day-of-school photos, DVS dibs, and color-coded Elite socks is a warm, funny time capsule best heard in full.
