Full house on this week’s old school with Cenk, Ben, Mark, & Steve. They talk ShopTYT promos, New York traffic, diner bathrooms, Michael Shure’s love of honking, Cenk’s fight with a little person, Hugh Grant’s career, revisiting Cenk’s angry USA Today rant, the great splinting, and Roy Moore being Chester the Molester.

  1. – Urinal etiquette is actually a thing, it’s called “toiletiquette”.
    There are even videos on Youtube explaining the rules.

    – Deliberate slow walking on pavements:
    psychological studies have found
    that people using phone booths talk longer when someone is waiting behind them than when they are all alone.
    Ppl feel the need to mark their territory.

  5. Thanks for listening to our feedback and reverting to the original old school recipe. You know what they say, “if it ain’t broke”…

  6. No u r just a beta she with shitty parents who heard the story and didn’t like my words. Fuck you and bless ur incompetent parents to raise such s weak human being

  8. Catalan is much different from Spanish (aka Castilian) than most casual speakers of Spanish would guess. Not only are they obviously different languages, but they’re in different subgroups of Romance languages. Spanish is an Iberian Romance language, in the same group as Portuguese, Galician, and others on the Iberian Peninsula. Catalan is a Gallo Romance language, in the same group as French and particularly the old dialects of southern France. Eg, the word for apple in Catalan is poma. That’s much more similar to the French word pomme than the Spanish word manzana.

  9. Great chat about traffic and honking. My issue is to do with highway driving. I grew up with rural driving, my route into the city has many big gravel trucks as well as regular vehicles. I find that most drivers in my rural area drive as though it was the city and they misjudge speeds and the time it takes to cross highway intersections. I’ve learned to be extra careful and never assume someone isn’t going to cross an intersection in front of you while your doing 110km/hr! This morning driving to work I honked at someone in a tadem gravel truck as I had to dramatically slow down in icy/snowy conditions to avoid them on-coming, crossing traffic to turn off the highway. Its so dangerous, and all I can tell is people don’t want to wait till oncoming traffic passes before they cross.

  10. So funny. It isn’t often a podcast makes me lol at work.
    I agree with the others, it is now absolutely mandatory that Bora makes an appearance on this show.

  11. Agree with Ben,…”when a guy is banned from a Mall?”
    That’s, when even a Bubble-Headed god-squader supporter might take a pause and think: Damn son, how bad does it gotta get: to get banned from a Mall? I say he loses by a wide margin…I will be so very sad for Alabama to be wrong;-[

  13. To join the EU, you need unanimous approval from all member states. Any newly independent state would have to apply for membership. Staying in the EU would not be up to them, it would be up to every one else in the EU. The member states would not want to reward this type of non-consensual succession.

  14. FYI I hear the ladies’ bathrooms in Japan pipe down sounds of rushing toilet water so that no one need fear being exposed for what they are doing, nor shamed – far beyond potpourri it seems there are yet finer bastions of civility! Fair brethren, forge on in unity through the jungles of Norms. We of the potpourri sex stand not near you, no, perhaps many purse lengths away but know that we feel your pain and are advancing washrooms on your behalf. We shall return for you. But don’t lose any sleep over it.

  15. This show is literally why I’m a member. You 4 are hilarious! I was laughing so hard that my dog got up at least 4 separate times to come make sure I was ok.

    I would LOVE to see Cenks friend Borat (did he say Borat?) on a future show!

    Somehow I have made it through life without knowing what a urinal cake was, and although I look up EVERYTHING I just can’t bring myself to look for this. In my mind (since he said it was pink) I’m picturing the deodorizer that hangs in toilets which I hope hangs somewhere on the TOP of the urinal. That’s gross enough for me and I’m going to leave it at that. Ahhhh nope – too curious! I’m going to have to look it up in a minute. Pleeeease don’t let it be something squishy that sits at the bottom!

    2. This isn’t the first time Ben has sounded much quieter than the rest. For a “broadcast professional” he really needs to do a better job with his lav.

  19. Cenk, Ben, Mark, Steve! This is why I pay to be a member. Keep it up! Old School is my escape and it was troublesome the last month.

  21. Great show. A few thoughts:

    I disagree that Wonder Woman was a hit for the DC franchise. I was excited for it even though I’m not really into superhero movies of any kind. But the twisty twist for who was really Aries was handled really poorly. That German general dude literally crushed a pistol into dust with his bare hands and you’re telling me he was just a normal dude with no supernatural power? I hate plot twists that brazenly mislead you like that, it’s not clever or satisfying to watch. The portrayal of WW was naive to the point of stupidity and it really detracted from the feeling of awe you should have for her. The american spy guy was basically the main character and focus of the movie. He drove basically the entire plot, again detracting from what should have been an awesome WW movie. That and the hamfisted, awkward sexual jokes really broke the immersion. It felt like a movie cobbled together from many parts that lacked identity and purpose. Just my opinion though. If you enjoyed it I’m glad.

    Regarding the story about Cenk waiting in line, I have to agree with Danny Woodburn. If you get out of that line for any reason, you’re not getting back in. If you don’t have your shit together and ready to go you have no business standing in that line.

  23. I’d like to know where you see these bathrooms. I have found in my 71 years that ladies rooms are generally disgusting. Woman are slobs when it comes to public restrooms. I can’t imagine that men’s rooms are worse. Just remembering some of the things I have seen makes me want to cry. I avoid public restrooms as much as possible. Maybe next time I will try the men’s room. LOL

    1. I agree! Male here but I used to work at Burger King in high school. Usually, both sexes bathrooms were gross but every so often (without getting graphic) the women’s bathroom was gross x100!

  26. awesome old school! my favorite thing on a hungover Saturday, could watch all-day :D

    (and it is chocolate chip cookie, because “chocolate chip” or the combination of it with cookie, are not a thing in other countries as much as pizza, hence it is more American)

  28. I agree… I literally laughed out loud watching this this am when Steve Oh told that urinal cake story….people walking by thought I was nuts laughing out loud that hard at 730 am while waiting dwntn 4the bus. What a great start to my day, and in these times.. I think a lot of us need that! I LOVE these4, and def miss Michael Shure to round it out. I too have been watching OS since EP #1. I think I have to say I look forward to OS being posted more than just about anything else. If I need a quick mood pick me up, I’ll pull this up and watch at least the first 20 mins. Too great! ? Thx guys… Keep it up. Much luv from here in Austin!

  29. Nasty restaurant bathrooms means no one cleans them. That means people cooking / serving are more likely to have clean hands and no nasty stuff under fingernails.
    :)

  30. What was that Bora story from Old School a few years back? I think he texted Cenk and said that he’s going to Vegas with friends to let loose. The next day he writes back: “We’re fucked. Please help.”

  33. I’m new mom of a 3 week old so saying that I’m tired and sleep deprived is an understatement. This past week has been especially stressful. I’ve been listening/watching old school since the fist episode and I️ love when the OGs host. I️ was literally laughing out loud watching this episode and it was exactly the destressor I️ needed. Thank you and I️ hope you keep Old Schools like this one coming!

  34. A – Thank god we are back to how Old School should be.
    2 – My adoration of Ben increased significantly with the knowledge that he really liked Notting Hill.
    Thrice – I wish I could remember when OS is filmed so I could watch live.
    IV – Next time Bora is in town, he must make an appearance on OS!

    2. They posted a new filming schedule on the member’s live stream page the other day and it says OS @ 9pm EST on Wednesdays. :]

  37. what a legendary return of Old School! This was great! This is exactly how it should be!
    There is a format to Old School that it’s not recognizable but if you go off that format you will find out something is wrong. From a viewer point of view, it looks like any fun conversation but Cenk somehow manages to add a unique flow to the conversation that makes it incredibly fun. definitely the best show in TYT by a lot!

  38. re: waiting in lines, courtesy, civility

    I live in China and have for several years. Highly recommend you all visit sometime if you haven’t. There are very different ideas here than what we tend to have in America. It’s pretty eye-opening and sometimes horrifying. Bathrooms here can be really galling. Also, people here will just shoulder you out of a line without even acknowledging your existence. Pretty wild. In crowded places it’s incredibly frustrating and upsetting.

    PS, love you all – I show your conversations and reporting to my students.

  40. Heard accusations against Jordan . Cenk please find a way to prove he’s innocent if there S no court evidence. This is a smear by ppl who begrudges Jordan who has standards and work ethics that is hard to be met by Any random journalist. This woman walks in the same room gets naked sleeps in the same bed and dares to talk bad about Jordan. Sorry if u r drunk and go into ppl s rooms u will need some proof of rape. At this point I’d vote for a progressive who is tough in taxes and social programs but loose on gun control etc. as long as they r anti sjw. U fuckers in comfy chairs don’t realize we slip into a fascist new world with no regard for dual process. And all the old women in comment section go fucking die already this is our, millennials world now andbwe don’t want your period distupio. If we don’t stand up for justice in the face of zero proofs and feelings we deserve what is coming to us. Just put urself in Jordan s shoes and make empathy. I think if u accuse someone with zero proofs you should go to jail. Jordan we love u buddy, keep fighting the good fight. We ll take care of these scum.

    1. I’m a couple days late with this reply so I doubt you’ll read it. Also, I’m unaware of this story about Jordan. But I feel pretty safe in saying you can go fuck yourself, you sound like a horrible human being. Good luck in life.

  41. Hilarious OS!! These four are terrific together. So. Why is the adjective for Thompson “Thompsonesque” rather than “Thompsonian” like “Jacksonian” for Jackson? What’s the rule (if there indeed is one) governing the suffix of the name/quality associated with it?
    Curious minds are awaiting an answer…

  43. This is the best Old School in ages!! Although I am sure I laugh every week, the bathroom stories are frigging hilarious! But DUDES – it isn’t Maine and Vermont’s fault the rest of the country are a bunch of wankers – you can’t secede without us. Also, I have a guess about Steve Oh’s religion – Methodist or Presbyterian?? Cenk’s not Muslim is he?? I thought he was an Agnostic Humanist

  44. AWESOME old school :))))….. i laughed SO fucking hard continuously (reminds me of Seinfeld comment from Elaine “I don’t know how you guys walk around with those things”). Cenk, you are right, if guys don’t learn how to keep it clean, women will DEFINITELY ban your nasty asses , no shared beautiful bathrooms for you! Hysterically funny bathroom realities…thanks for the good laughing expedition!
