They riff on Venice Beach's aging bodybuilders who seem to have lifted their way out of AIDS, then Brendan recounts growing up there and running a childhood business selling fake Rolexes to other kids.
- Venice's Muscle Beach is full of gay guys who've cured themselves of AIDS by lifting weights, many of whom should have died in 1993.
- Brendan grew up in Venice during summers when his uncle lived there and he'd work out at Gold's Gym.
- His dad gave him weekly allowance to buy fake Rolexes on the Venice Boardwalk, then he'd sell them to kids back home for way more money.
