🔥Hot takes include:

• Lightsaber-free combat over canon

• Snoke’s surprise death — bold move or betrayal?

Are we dreaming… or is reality just glitching?

In this mind-bending episode of Outtakes with Matt & Dan, we dive headfirst into the weird world of lucid dreams, childhood nightmares, Freud’s mommy issues, and the growing fear that AI might be dreaming, too.

Along the way:

• Inception breakdowns & personal dream confessions

• A terrifying spaghetti-filled Cabbage Patch Doll vision

• Dream-threesome drama with Dan?!

• AI deepfakes vs. dream logic—who does weird better?

• Existential dread, Requiem for a Dream misquotes, and bedtime paranoia

It’s philosophical. It’s ridiculous. It’s dream-fueled chaos.

Subscribe, scream into your pillow, and let’s get unconscious.

What do Batman, Howie Mandel, Steve Jobs, and your high school cologne all have in common? In this episode of Outtakes, Matt and Dan dive into the wild world of hygiene—from Gotham’s streets to middle school mall hacks.

What kind of man shaves his head voluntarily for hygiene? (Hi, Howie.)

They explore obsessive cleanliness, awkward teen rituals, and what it really means to be clean. Plus, a naked fight scene breakdown, a throwback to oily faces, and why Eminem might be the real Mr. Clean. It's part pop culture, part philosophy, and all absurd.00:00 The Messiah Arrives00:34 Introduction to the Show01:09 Cold Open: Batman and Hygiene07:44 Defining Hygiene08:29 Hygiene in History and Immunity10:13 Pro-Vaccine Stance16:00 Doctors and Personal Hygiene17:32 Teenage Grooming Stories21:38 The Dan Collar Method25:02 The Shiny Face Fear32:07 Customer Hygiene Horror Stories39:03 Accutane and Autoimmune Hepatitis40:12 Hygiene Preferences and Shower Habits41:54 Historical Hygiene: A Look Back44:59 Steve Jobs and Extreme Hygiene50:02 Hygiene Icons: Mr. Clean or Dirt Bag?01:03:48 Verbal and Spiritual Hygiene01:14:05 Concluding Thoughts on Hygiene
