100%
Cheers.
Hey everybody and welcome to the winter beers.
Look at us.
Wow.
Wow.
We thought they were phoning it in in the summer.
Yes.
But this is the next level, folks.
Get ready.
Tom is just in the room over there.
Yes.
He's just over there having coffee.
Then we want to be clear, we will never do this show full time.
Never.
Never.
It's not going to happen.
And we did, we thought we were doing a horrible job last time.
You are in for four of the most phoned in episodes you have ever experienced in your lives.
And we don't give a fuck.
That's the beauty of this.
This is like, okay, last episode, last, the last summer, it was like when your parents have a work trip.
So they have to get a babysitter to watch you.
This is just, now your parents are on benzos in the pool and they've just hired a maid to look at you.
We're just like a babysitter because your parents are sick of looking you in the face.
100% two things, and I'm speaking for you, Stavi, but I believe that you'll agree with me.
Two things I'll never do in my life.
This podcast full-time or Bert Kreacher's comedy cruise.
Listen, yeah, the cruise is tough.
I got an offer for it and the answer is resounding no and it always will be.
I'm not getting on a boat with Burrude.
Kreischer. I don't want to be in international waters with Bert's biggest super fans. I don't
want to need, I don't need to be in international waters close to his bare nipples. No thanks.
I'll be on a tour bus with his nips. Yeah, sure. I like the tour bus. Yeah, I'm not. I need to be
on dry land. 100%. I need to know, so I could bail out and I could fucking, yeah, hitchhike to the,
to the nearest buckies and get home if something goes wrong. Now, they're holding on to this show,
to this network. The same reason why parents hold on, you know, they're trying. You know, they're
trying to get make sure they're you know we want to stay together till our kids are 18
right then we'll go on they're holding on because they have a contract with hello fresh
so we're here to sell pre-portion chicken cordon blues and that's all we're here for the money
was given up front and so between that and better help and whatever lightning strike
bullshit drink that they sell yeah all that stuff then we were like advertising like a financial
services whatever you remember that that was a hundred percent yeah
Tom is doing season two of its Netflix show
coming up with New Ways to shit his pants
and Byrd has a multicam sitcom on that
it's I don't know what's gonna happen with that
So that's just crazy
They're trying to you know that's true
They have they have found their ladders out
They're trying to climb out of podcasting
With sitcoms and movies
Yes and basically we're keeping the seat warm
In case those both fail
Exactly if those shows are successful
This show is done and you guys know it
Now we're gonna act
What we're going to try to actively do
over the next four weeks
is try not to get invited back
for spring bears.
But,
so we're going to do what we can here.
Will it be possible? I don't know.
I don't know. We're going to try.
We're going to try. You know, joke world
will do what he can to interview us
and tell the fans it's a good thing.
And, you know, and so, but the honest God is
we're trying here. We're here with the winter bears.
Now, what I do like about this,
What is positive about this is you and I, we don't see each other much.
We don't. This is a great opportunity to catch up.
A chance for us to hang, you know?
We were both talking about having our breakfast and we're both talking about how we need to
really, you know, get our health together.
You got a lot of, you have a lot of stuff coming up.
And I was like, I want to get my health together from my kids as we're both eating
bacon, egg and cheeses in their left hand and muffins with our right.
No, it's actually worse than that because what we did was I, particularly me, you, to be fair,
we're happy to be a little slut while we're here.
Yes.
You would have, whatever Benson's Spood, he's in the booth,
we're on Benson's home turf,
whatever he had brought us,
whatever like, if he poured caramel into a trough,
you would have had that for breakfast.
100%.
You love to pretend it's out of your hands, right?
Because in your heart, you are a fat piece of shit.
I just work out a little.
Exactly.
And so when it's out of your circumstance,
when the circumstances force you to have treats,
so last time you basically told Benson Spoon
to bring us donuts and desserts.
muffins.
And I was like, hey, man, I'm trying to get it together.
Don't do that this time.
So he had egg white sandwiches.
And then I just pulled the absolute fat guy move where shout out to Josh.
He also got just an extra breakfast platter.
So even though I ordered an egg white sandwich with like spinach and avocado, I took the
bacon from the breakfast platter and put it on to an egg white sandwich, which is worse than
just a regular egg sandwich.
And let's be honest.
You forget I was standing right next to you.
You also put the home fries in the sandwiches.
I use home fries as a condiment.
I use fried potatoes as a topping.
If I don't eat it with a fork,
I don't consider it that I've even had hash browns.
That's part of the sand, which is far as I'm concerned.
So, you know, and then, of course, yes, I had some muffin.
I'm the same way.
Right.
It's tough.
And yesterday, I was crushing Pepto-Bismos,
so they might not only pay us to do these shows,
but I might completely wreck the plumbing at YMA studio.
With the weird pepto.
There's a weird fucked up green pepto shit in my intestines.
That's that bacon from the morning in the muffin is just pounding it from the back right now.
It's going to rock it out.
Yeah, man.
I fully, it's one of those things where I also, I went to Houston last night and I ate, I decided to.
What do we have?
See, here's the thing.
I had a really good day, right?
And then I decided, I said, I really want pizza.
And then I looked at the menu at the Houston punchline.
and I noticed they had cauliflower-crust pizza
which I'm thinking, oh, this is healthier
and less carbs, so I got a pepperoni
cauliflower crust pizza. A cauliflower
crust comedy club pizza in Texas.
Yeah, dude. I mean, listen
to those back. Listen to those words back.
It felt, it was disgusting. It was like I was
eating a UFC fighter's ear.
Just a nice cauliflower ear pizza.
And it was, and I woke up in the middle of the night
at like 3 o'clock in the morning. I was supposed to come
here last night and be in all.
Austin early this morning so we could get this started, but I literally was having like explosive
diarrhea in like I couldn't leave the confines of the hotel because of that cauliflower pizza
and I just started to feel better and then I immediately ate the food that Benson's spoon
has provided for us. So I'm with you and maybe what we can do is for episode two. We can really
just mail it in and actually have them set up cameras live look into the stalls and us do a podcast
while we have battleshits. Mike up the bowl.
mic it up. I mean, that's pretty much
what Tom and Bert do on a weekly basis. That is
true. Yeah, the verbal equivalent. Yeah,
and I could feel there is no, I mean, the energy in here
sucks. You guys are only seeing it this way, but
we're looking over here, and it looks bad.
I mean, dude, it looks like Ukraine out there.
Yeah. Yeah. But over here,
like, ooh. Yeah. But, you know,
I think that I'm happy
to do this. I am happy to be back. Look, all
joking aside, it is fun. I love Tom
and Bert. It is fun to be here,
and it is fun to just do a podcast that doesn't
affect us at all. Zero.
That's the, we're, you know what I mean?
Yeah.
There's no, there's no stakes for us.
It's just a good time.
We just happen to both be in Texas at the same time and they hit us up, so.
Yeah, the only thing I have to deal with is, uh, Janus is watching this with a gun in his mouth.
He's like, if you start another podcast with someone else, I'll fucking kill you on your family.
You just start a podcast with a different Greek.
Yes.
You know, you really are.
It is, he is watching.
And it's like, by the end of this, you go to back.
Back to history Aheena's talking about how much you love Mom Dani.
Yes.
You really are just the idiot bellwether that's blown between two Greeks.
100%.
One Republican fucking...
Now, Yanis has become a suburban Republican father.
Sure.
And then one fucking degenerate socialist, you know, single city dweller.
Yeah, the freaking whole revolution.
And then I'm just doing...
I'm just climbing the ladder of Greeks.
You know, the Janis, Stavi.
And then eventually I am trying to get back on Fuller House with John Stamos.
Just trying to get back.
in there and then you... Fuller house.
Fuller or her.
Yeah.
No, but history hyenas is safe.
We're having a good time over there at the history hyenas.
And let me be clear, it's my choice that it's safe, Yon.
You actually...
This is basically like a Jolene...
Yannes is basically singing Jolene to me.
He's like, please don't take my man.
It's like, I'm good, man.
I just want to fuck him a couple times.
You can keep him.
Yeah.
It's the Chris Rock truck of like, where he was like,
was like men will because women want to take your
take your husband like the joke is like women want to take your husband
men don't want to take your wife they want to fuck your wife
but they don't want to take her no great joke off of tambourine
great special uh and that's how i feel about our relationship you know we come in we
cheat on our eldest is out here he's getting cucked harder than yannis
he has to watch this he's watching this from closed circuit tv yeah he's watching
and he's just sitting out there with the guys who opened for me just asking him a million
questions about his camera equipment and he's just sit there two and a half hours talking about
lenses. And Eldis thinks he looks like you too. That's the other funny thing. Eldis has like
hilarious Albanian self-esteem where he thinks he's so much hotter than he is. Right. He's
looking at this. He's like, what the hell? Why am I a producer? I should be on the mic.
Yes, Eldis looks like me if he was born in Hiroshima in 1945. If his dad's balls were just
in nuclear goo. Yes, we were born in Chernobyl.
Chernobyl's it. Absolutely. Yeah. So, no, but
I think that, yeah, it's, our relationship is, you know, we come and do this podcast,
so we have sex, we have hot, gorgeous sex, but then we both go back to our committed
relationship, from Stavi's world to history hyenas, and everybody wins. We are kind of like,
we're like a legal affair here. We can have an affair with each other, we can be good,
and everybody's winning. We're podcast polyamorous. Exactly what we are, dude, exactly what we
come in, we fuck, we come into Bert and Tom's house and fuck each other, so our wives don't know where we are.
Exactly. Yeah, and then Bert and Tom can go do whatever they need to, and then they can come back, and everything's good. We've kept the seats warm. That's right. And this is what it is. We've kept the seats covered, immersed in jizz, basically. Yes. They haven't dried out. And this would be good, I think, moving forward for relationships in general, because everyone always says the same thing. Like, oh, I would never cheat on my wife if she would just allow me to have sex with other women. It would be better for us if you let me have sex for the women. Everyone says that. It's not your internal monologue you're talking about right now.
It's like, you know, this well-known thing that everybody says, I should be able to fuck
when I'm on the road.
Everyone thinks that.
Everyone thinks that.
As long as I'm a time zone away, it's like a time zone and an ethnicity away.
Yeah.
The further the time zone, the closer you can get to fucking a Latina.
Yeah.
The entire borough of Staten Island is agreeing with me right now.
They're like, yes.
But it's like people make this argument.
Oh, if I could step out, it would make things better.
Now, who knows if it's true or not?
I would never try.
I love my family.
But I will say that for podcasting, this works.
You and I said, we were like, you know, because they said,
oh, we want you and Stavi to do a show for YMH.
And we said we can't, we're not doing this shit long term.
Yeah.
But coming in, seasonal, and hitting them with the feel, this works.
Yeah, when they have to hire extra hands that Target on Christmas.
You know what I mean?
To really stock all the toys, that's what we're here for.
Yeah, where the two guys with Down syndrome that come and help out the big markets like Walmart and Target.

raids may vary what is going on with you chrissey it's been a while you know how's the fam how's the
you've moved fully into your new home now i've moved fully into my new home and what's interesting
is i've moved fully into my new home and then as soon as i closed i'm talking about day two the
insurance company told me i need a new roof so i now am actively trying to get uh out of the house
so i just are you serious yeah because i'm like this thing needs a new roof i didn't know it
crazy but here's my thing
how much is the fucking roof cost
I know I should get a new fucking roof stay
I know your kids are gonna be fucking
they're gonna have like fucking PTSD I know I want to
get one of them Tesla roofs
so but what our kids are having
you somehow your kids are growing up
upper middle class but they have the
like the mentality of a
war torn refugee yeah yeah my kids are growing
up that's why they're pro Palestine
and and so
and so but I'm
not I am if I would
I'd be lying if I said it hasn't crossed my mind to sell my house.
Of course.
It absolutely has.
Of course.
I'm not going to do it.
And here, okay, but if I do do it, if I do it, if I do it, if I did it.
Here's the big difference, which I think this is because thinking about the kids first,
I would not move out of the town that I'm in.
So I won't change their schools.
Right.
You already sent pies to the police officers.
Yes.
You've already tried to bribe the police with a sweet potato pie.
I'm in. Oh, yeah, dude. And they have also been invited to the house for Thanksgiving.
So I, I, but I have been thinking about it. And I notice what happens with me. You're addicted to moving, bro. I know. You're addicted to Zillow. Yes. You love fucking moving. That's who my sponsor. You love boxing shit up. I know. And I, and the thing is, too, is like, I don't even do it. Like, I try to hire companies to do the moving for me because I don't want to do it. I think I'm addicted to being overwhelmed. You ever think about that? Like, I think I'm addicted to just.
having some type of constant chaos, overwhelming issue in my life.
I get that because if you have that, you can't actually sit and be with your thoughts
and your actual deficiencies.
You can't, you don't want to be faced with the fact that you desperately want to cheat
every moment of the day.
All you want is a muffin and strange pussy.
That's it.
You've been having egg whites and been in a committed relationship.
So if you're constantly boxing up your things and worried about new schools, you can't
let your natural Italian mind wander.
Wander, yeah.
And then for me to top all that off, I'm gay.
Even the furthest, even that is like a red herring from the real issue.
Yes.
Yes.
Every time, every single time I come up for air and start to meditate, I just see my face
on Vito in the parking lot coming up giving the blowjob in the Sopranos.
That's so funny.
You try and meditate and you just,
Within three minutes, you're looking at your thing about vivid gay sex.
Just right away, right away.
To the point where there'll be times where, like, we're just watching a show in bed,
like, Jazz and I, and she's like, it's okay if you're gay.
In fact, that's actually such a best case scenario.
Oh, my God, because she knows we would always, I would always, I'd always,
they're my family for life.
I'll always take care of them as long as I have things, they have things.
But then she wouldn't have to deal with the pain of, like, moving on with another woman.
She'd be like, oh, he's just, you know, he's just, you know, he's just,
in a committed relationship with a guy now.
Now, you think if you were gay, you wouldn't have,
because gay guys, they love.
They have, to them, cheating isn't even a concept.
Right.
You know what I mean?
It's like how certain, certain, like,
different people can't see different colors.
Right.
Or like, you know, coyotes,
dogs can only see in certain colors.
Gay guys don't even,
or certain languages don't have concepts, you know?
Like, they don't have the concept of cheating in the gay vernacular.
Yeah, it's like, it's, I think in French society, too,
I think it's okay to cheat.
Right?
I've heard that French guys, the way it works in France is,
is you can cheat on your spouse.
That's allowed.
You just can't fall in love.
Right.
But you can bang and have sex.
That's a natural urge, okay?
It's my right as a Christian man to be able to do that.
Yeah.
And you even have your, you set your mistress up in a pitaire.
A little petita.
A little, and I've actually tried to get that.
and pulled it off as, like, as a studio for the history I mean is.
But I've been denied, the petiater.
But Yannis and I both have asked our wives, is it possible to just have a little
petiaterre, and the answer is a resounding no.
Really?
It's a resounding no.
I mean, you, I get, Janus, though?
Yeah, no.
Yannis seems like he's over even getting pushy.
Oh, yeah, dude, Janus is 50 years old.
He doesn't, he wants to pontificate.
That's it.
And not nut anymore.
100%.
He wants to hang out with Ethan Hawke.
He just wants to talk about Ethan Hawk poems.
and movies all day
Listen, I respect that, Ethan Hawke
I can't wait to see the new one
What is it called, blue something?
Oh yes, yeah, I've seen ads for it
Yeah, he, he, like before midnight, before sunrise
All those movies, Ethan Hawk, next level
An insane fucking actor
Oh yeah
Fuck, the Paul Schrader movie
What the fuck was that called?
It's so good, he's the priest who like fucking
Anyway, great actor
I saw, here's a funny thing, well not funny,
just a random thing about Ethan Hawk
is I one time was getting on a
Reformed. Oh, first reformed. Great fucking movie. I was getting on a flight on an American Airlines flight
with Ethan and Ethan Hawke was there and we were boarding and I sat like I was sitting like right
across from him. And so like I would, you know, go to the bathroom, whatever and like just give him like little
pounds. And I did it probably two or three times. Like I was, I was being an idiot. Yeah, and he was cool
about it. He was like, yeah, what up? You know, like, whatever. He was very cool. And then he was probably
like, I'm happy. Like, that guy was annoying. And I, rightfully so. And then I stayed in L.A. for like a
week and a half and then on my flight from LA back to JFK I was sitting in the same aisle as him and he said I
swear to God dude and I respect it for this he took off his headphones seriously it was like hey man I just
are you following me wow and I said and I know how this looks and it was one of those things I was like
so profound I was like Mr. Hawk I was like I am not I was like this is random I was like I've been
thinking all week I know I bothered you a little bit I apologize and I remember that I believe it was
the San Antonio Spurs
when the NBA championship
at that time.
Yeah, it was like a few years ago.
This is a long time.
Whenever the last time they made the finals,
it was then.
I mean, dude, we're talking
when they, when they're against the heat?
Yeah, when's the last time the Spurs made,
it was during that time.
And I remember, we were all watching
the game on the way home.
And I think he was rooting for the Spurs.
He might be from Texas because he was definitely
rooting for the Spurs.
And I remember, like, I like,
you know, was like, oh, like,
score it.
And then he looked at me and gave me a pound.
Wow.
I was like, okay.
So he's a cool guy.
He's cool.
I don't know that he would ever remember that.
No, let me tell you something.
No, he wouldn't.
And if he did, it's because he's like, has your, he has your face.
He has like a picture of a, and you're on a list of like, don't let these guys near the property.
You know?
Two things are probably true.
He doesn't remember me, and it wasn't Ethan Hawke.
Just some guy with a beard.
Some guy with a beard.
It was just some woman.
Yeah.
I don't know.
Now, what about you, dude?
What's been going on with you?
You got a lot of stuff going on.
You know, movie, which is cool,
Begonia, go see it.
It's still in theaters.
That's going out.
That's out there.
I basically have just,
I am just trying,
this is the story of my life,
just not trying to get a little less fat.
That's what it is.
I found out that I'm on,
so I'm on fat guy medicine.
I'm on, not Ozzympic, Zep bound.
What's the difference?
I think it's just a difference.
different, you know, peptide type shit.
But it's a GLP.
It's a GLP one.
That's the main one.
And, and I, so I just went to a doctor who's not a doctor.
He's a nurse practitioner that would just kind of.
Okay, it's Dr. Drew.
He would be, yeah, he basically, it's literally just a guy.
You know what's funny?
What's funny about him is he kind of dresses like a doctor.
And then you look at his card and there's no MD to be found anywhere.
Yeah.
It's just a nurse practitioner, which is fine.
Respect to nurse practitioners.
Yeah, you're looking at him.
You're like, you know, he's, he's very smart, but I saw him on Kill Tony.
Yeah, dude, if my doctor's a bucket pull, no, that's no good.
So what was he saying?
Well, he just was not, it turns out I was, and then I talked to a doctor who specializes
in fat guy medicine.
And I should have been going up in dose.
I was eating through the, there's like a 2.5, a 5, 7.5, 10, all the way up to 15.
I was at 5 for like four months.
and you're supposed to go up in dose
when it stops kind of being effective.
So basically, I would take the shot
and it would work like one day
and then I would just...
Point five is no match
for like when I really want to fucking...
I was eating a lot of pizza.
I was getting a lot of sushi.
Not cauliflower crust, either.
The real stuff.
Not cauliflower crust, the good shit.
Yeah.
Actually, shout out to the...
If we're talking about...
Since we're talking about Comedy Club pizzas,
the Greensboro Comedy Zone.
Okay, never been.
Where I did do a show
so shockingly good pizza.
Really?
Yeah.
It was like,
it kind of tastes like
the best version
of Chuckie cheese pizza.
Interesting.
You ever get nostalgic for that old,
like kind of buttery crispy bottom?
The other day,
the other day I ate in Elyos pizza.
Oh wow.
It just heated one of those puppies up.
Wow.
You're reminding,
you're remembering your latch key kid days in Brooklyn.
Yes.
Just fucking heating up in Elyos,
sleeping, jacking off in your mom's bed.
100%.
After school.
Yeah.
The old, the old Chrissy D. move.
100%.
Yeah.
You know,
trying to,
join the army to defend this country from the 9-11 hijackers.
Yeah, beating up an Indian guy because you thought he was from fucking Iraq.
Yeah, calling every person who's a shade darker than me, Muhammad Atta.
Fis-fighting Dominicans.
And then planting a Quran on them to make it look like a hate crime.
Yeah, and then go and practicing my free throws.
So, yeah, so what happened?
So anyway, I'm just, so now I'm on the new dose.
I'm looking good.
Yeah.
I'm not.
it's it actually works because it dude there's there's nothing more depressing than thinking like
oh i'm going to beat this medicine right i am going to fucking the the miracle cure that the fattest
fat people the most classically a man whose name is fat joe got skinny off this medicine yes
and it's like i am going to lose to this like i'm going to beat it there's nothing i can do
i'm going to just be fattish it like there were some depressing days and i realized like oh i just
wasn't on the right dosage.
And now I'm pretty good.
Now you feel good and you're feeling good.
I'm feeling good.
There were days where my brain hadn't matched.
I was still fighting the 7.5.
Like I ate a fucking pint of ice cream over like two and a half hour hours.
Oh yeah.
Because it hurt my stomach.
But I was like, you're not going to beat me, you fucking pussy.
I'm stronger than you medicine.
Yeah.
And then I woke up the next day diary.
I was like, why did I do that?
How do I start my morning every day?
Well, I started with the beautiful, gorgeous morning dump.
Why? Because I'm drinking AG1. Okay? That keeps me flowing. That keeps me healthy. Ag1. My asshole is my whole body just runs good. I feel clean on the inside.

makes you not hungry yeah it kind of regulates your yeah exactly right in theory people who are
fat and i i really do believe this because i can just eat so fucking much and then it's just like
you're just your chemistry is just wrong your internal shit is fucked up yeah so you don't
regulate hunger the way normal motherfuckers like you actually that button that tells me i'm full
doesn't happen for it really doesn't dude like i i have to be in pain to stop eating right you know what i
i have to be i have to and i've figured out i mean it's so fucked up where i there have been times
where i like know how to trick my body like i'll drink water yeah i'll drink a bunch of water like
balloon up the stomach and then i'll just fill it up real fast with meats before it has it has time
to realize it's not water it's meat that's in there and then as soon as my body realized i have
the most horrific diary. Like, one Thanksgiving, it was the pandemic, right? And so me and my brothers
used to do Korean barbecue Thanksgiving. Nice. Very American of you. It's very, yeah.
Exactly what Squanto wanted. I think you would have, yeah, I think you would have liked that,
you know? Yeah, yeah. And so, but usually you go to a restaurant, you can't overeat at a restaurant.
No, it's tough. But it's the pandemic, everything's close. So we just go to a H-Mart,
load up on meats and shit
and I just have a tin
like a big ass fucking tin
full of fucking short rib
and I'm just eating it
No kimchi, nothing healthy
A little kimchi
A little kimchi little rice
A little soy
A little sesame oil and salt
A little fucking bean
bean paste
Yep
Great great shit
And dude I just
I almost
It was like I was eating it on a schedule
Where it was like
My timer would go off
So I would have just enough time
For my body to think I stopped eating
and then I would fucking eat some real quick.
It was like when actresses talk,
like when, what's her face, Hillary Swank
had to get, to be a million-dollar baby.
She would, like, wake up in the middle of the night
to have, like, protein chips.
I was every, like, hour waking up
and just eating fucking short ribs.
And I gave birth.
Like, I should, like, literally, I don't know if,
I don't know how my ass is snapped back from that.
But it was like a, it was like a grapefruit
of just, like, Korean scented shit, like, just hard.
And honestly,
smelled kind of good.
I didn't have time to really digest.
I was eating it so much that the fragrant herbs
overpowered the shit.
And it was like, I was kind of like, ooh.
Maybe I should eat this.
If I walked into a restaurant and it smelled like that,
I'd be like, hey, what's that?
Can I have something like that?
Dude, well, Koreans have an enzyme in their body
where their sweat doesn't smell.
So maybe they're, you cannot get a Korean person's armpits
to smell like B.O.
It's not possible.
And you've tried.
Yes, exactly.
I've captured a couple of,
of them, just put them in the sauna.
You're tickling their armpits with feathers.
I'm like, come on.
And nothing, so maybe there's something in the food.
That is interesting.
And by the way, let me tell you, I know, I worked with Fat Joe in 2014.
We did the show on MLB called an MTV2 called Off the Bat that nobody watched.
Basically, MLB was like, oh, we want to make baseball available for like a younger audience.
Right.
So they make it cool.
Yeah, so they put it on Sundays at 11 a.m.
I was like, the perfect time slot.
Let's get Fat Joe and the first guy from Guy Code that replies yes.
And you happen to be looking at your email before Schultz?
And the job was yours.
Yes, I beat him to it.
And so...
Yeah, you beat John Gabris and Schultz and you got to do it.
Yeah.
And so Fat Joe was like, you know, the other host.
And Sway from Sway in the morning was there in Melanie and Glacius.
And it was a great show.
But Fat Joe, he had lost all that weight back then in 2014.
Oh, really?
You know, this was years before a Zempick.
What was you doing?
was you on go ahead no so i'm sitting with them right and we're in the green room wow look at that oh look at
oh wow you really looked way more like a fucking brooklyn guino there like a puffy fat you have that
fat fucking gumba face there dude you look so much better now yeah i just dude i was you know what that was
me like i was eating a lot but that was drinking that was i still drink a little bit but that was
like serious like drinking drinks drinking beers like everyday beers with fucking pat finnegut at o'neals
you know what i mean that was me that was me and mass
Spith Queens, just throwing back bruise.
I love it.
And so, but Fat Joe, we're sitting in the green room one day before the show.
And I'm like, dude, like, you know, because I was feeling fat and puffy.
I was like, what do you lose all this way?
He goes, yo, man, you know what the secret is?
One thing, baby.
All I had to do, I still eat the way I eat, but now every single day I make sure I have
a black cherry seltzer.
And I said, and I said, what?
He was like, black cherry seltzes, baby.
That's the only thing that I change, man.
And he goes, Joey crack.
He goes, and I changed my whole life, black cherry seltzes.
And I was like, oh, no way that's true.
No way that's true.
Yeah.
So that, but that was his claim.
I mean, Black Cherry Sells.
And the thing with Fat Joe, dude, he's such a funny guy.
He would tell the best stories.
Like, I remember one time he was telling the story.
And he had, like, the whole, like, room, like, riveted, right?
Because he was in front of a live audience.
So he's telling us this amazing story once where he's like, yeah.
He's like, you know, it's like 1994 or whatever.
Him and Big Pond, when Big Pum was still alive, the tunnel, the famous club in New York City,
nightclub in New York City is closed now.
but he was like, you know, we were going into the tunnel one night.
He was like, and there were drug, there were gang members
that were robbing rappers' chains
or like athletes' chains going into the tunnel, right?
So he said, one day, me and Big Pun,
you know, they're hardcore dudes from the Bronx.
Yeah, of course.
So they walk into the tunnel, and the gang members are right there
with guns at, like, right at their chest.
So he's like, yo, run your chains.
And him and Big Pun are like, you know,
he's like, as much as we want to fight,
these mother, they got the guns in our chest.
So, like, you know, what are we going to do?
He goes, and it was like this moment that like felt, you know, like an eternity,
but it was five, ten seconds, or all of a sudden, out of nowhere, they hear,
yo, who got a gun to my man?
Who got a gun at my man?
Now this is like 1990, 95, it's fucking Mike Tyson.
Wow.
So Mike Tyson, they said, walks into the tunnel.
He has like four chains on, no shirt on.
This is heavyweight champion, Mike Tyson, and he looks at the gang bands.
He goes, y'all going to have to go through me.
Wow.
And he said the guys literally put the guns back, just like in the beltbox of their pants
and walked out.
Sorry, Mr. Tyson.
Sorry, Mr. Tyson.
On arms.
Yeah.
God, he was, yeah.
And I'm even forget, because he told me so long, I'm even forgetting, like, better parts of that story.
But he told, and we, the way, he had us, like, in the palm of his hand.
Yeah, dude.
And I was like, dude, you should come, you should come do stand up comedy with me.
I was doing a show at Caroline's that weekend.
I was like, you have, like, a natural gifter.
You can rap and you can, you know, tell these stories like, yeah, I'm going to do it.
and then he showed up and absolutely bombed.
Yeah, I mean, you're an idiot for that.
I'm a dumb shit.
I just needed extra ticket sales.
It was 2014, so I put up on my Facebook wall.
Fat Joe is coming.
You have had the most hilarious, fakesest.
Every TV show you've been a part of feels fake.
Fake, yeah.
And it has had no impact, no cultural impact whatsoever.
Gets canceled immediately after one season or mid-season.
Let's run through it.
You had that?
I didn't even know about that one.
MLB, I've also been.
a part of eight pilots, not one
so I'm 0 for eight with my own
show ideas. One of my pilots
I illegally put up on my YouTube, my
CBS sitcom pilot, so you can go
to Chris DeStefano CBS pilot
on my Christie Comedy YouTube and you'll see that.
You were hoping for like a internet
groundswell. Yeah. We got to get
this on and just no one even watched it on YouTube.
I got a cease and desist letter from CBS
that I violated a major part of the contract.
So that's what happened there.
And then, and I've been a
part of guy code and girl code on MTV and MTV.
Arguably the most lasting.
Those are the most culturally impactful.
However, they drop, MTV dropped the ball on monetizing it on a tour.
Like the impractical, at that time, the impractical jokers and guy code and girl code
were getting similar views.
But the impractal jokers, you know, obviously their show is iconic show, but they were
able to captivate, they were able to generate into like a tour.
Is that really what you want your life to be?
No.
On a fucking bus with the rest of guy code and girl code.
On a bus with, yeah, with Andrew Schultz and Mer.
No, I, guy code and girl code at that time.
You want to be 40 being like, if your girl's got a body count and nine, she's, take that
bitch to the gutter.
You know what I mean?
You want to be a grown man to like slut-shaming teenagers?
Well, dude, even when I wasn't, even when I was like in my late 20s, when I was doing
guy code, I was still a physical therapist.
I was a pediatric physical therapist
working with like mentally and physically handicapped children.
Like that's what I did simultaneously
while I was doing guy code and girl code
before I could transition to a career in comedy.
And the principal of the school, I remember, comes...
This is before the internet.
Like they had seen it on TV.
They come in and they're like, oh...
It wasn't before the internet, by the way.
What?
Well, actually, you're right, it wasn't.
It wasn't.
But I'm saying it wasn't like as rampant.
It wasn't like social media.
Before the internet.
He went to the library and looked up
and got a VCR tape
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Somebody sent me a slide.
And, no, but my principal of the school was like, this is before I had kids or anything,
she was like, you know, we understand that you're moonlighting as a comedian.
And it's been brought to our attention that you were recently appeared on an episode of a show
called Guy Code. And I said, yeah, I said, you know, it's this and now. They're like,
that's fine. They were like, but, you know, you do work with children here.
And some of the parents of these children watch the show. And you just put it on an episode with
You're the featured of, and then the name of it is Guy Coe to hiding your boner.
I swear to God.
To hiding your boner.
And it was like a whole, we did 20 minutes on that.
And they were like, we just don't think that's not appropriate as you're working with children
because they are seeing it.
And now, you know, the parents have said they're trying to do some of the tips that you've said.
Of course.
It's borderline.
The children are trying to hide their boners guy code.
Yes.
By following guy code.
Yeah.
They don't want to be in violation.
of international guy code.
So let's open that.
This is a rich vein of discussion.
Yes.
What are the, what is the, what, what's, where did you land on the guy code dying your
boner?
So I said the guy coat tied in your boner depends what part of your life you're in.
I said if you're in school, it's very easy.
You just wear your book bag in the front.
Oh, that's all right.
When Archbishop Maloy High School, all boy Catholic high school shouted out.
Interesting.
That's that where you were getting boners.
Yes.
You were getting bono.
You were not a woman in sight.
Zero.
It was just, it was just, you know, guys in cacks.
Yeah. And so I remember if you had your book bag on in the front and you were walking through the hallway changing classes, the whole school would just go boner. Even the teachers were getting involved. Like, yeah, dude, Patty, we know you got a boner. And so that, and then the obvious classic move is hide it in your waistband. Wasteband is the way to go. And then I forgot there was other ways, like I would do patterns pants and things like that. But the main thing is. Patterns pants, an optical illusion to hide your heart dig. Right, exactly. If you want to get scientific with it.
So it depends on a swirl, like the hypnosis, your pants.
Yeah, or like one of those, like, lollipops and just come lick it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And so I remember, I remember that my principal goes, you know,
and you have to kind of choose right now because this is inappropriate.
And I remember, like, I had this moment where I was like, you know,
my mom, I said I had my mom on one shoulder saying, you have a doctor degree in physical
therapy, you have health insurance, you're making money, okay, not great money, but you're
you need to stay in this job and then I had my dad on the other side being like
yo go live your life yeah yeah nobody can hide that boner baby you go live your life
quit it yeah quit that show quit that quit that quit that job and go do comedy even though I had
no path at the time to comedy and I just as always chose my dad you listen to your dad
I listen my the man who made you hide out an Amish country as a child yes the man whose life decisions
made you wanted in Ridgewood Queens.
The man who caused me and my mom to get very familiar
with the Amtrak schedule out of Penn Station
in 1989.
And that's what I remember, I chose that.
And dude, for like the first week, I had like,
I remember I had like $240 in my bank account.
And I remember, like, I had quit, right?
And my dad was like, you can stay with me,
like live in my basement, don't tell your mother
that you quit, and I didn't.
and then yeah and I remember that they the for like a week maybe two weeks like no money like what am I going to do here I was trying to get any gig I could and then MTV came and gave me like an overall deal which basically like was my physical therapy salary maybe even more to like do comedy but then I was an MTV I belonged to MTV so that's when Carson Daly got to fuck your ass whenever he wanted to 100% that's how I warmed up for TRL yeah you have you had to you have a
had to fluff him. Oh, yeah, do it. And then they started putting me on every MTV show
because I were just paying for me and I was on some shows that you've never heard of like
Little Duval's Making in America. You know, I was doing this show and that show. I mean, I was just
bomb after bomb. Yeah, a bunch. And then you had a weird home improvement show for a while.
Yes, I had a weird home improvement show. Backyard Bar Wars, which was a great show. And then I was
on, what was it, true TV during the pandemic. Yeah. And then I did that and I just, you know,
they wanted to do season two
and I just didn't show up
I was like I just don't want to go
I don't want to go leave my family again
and so that was a problem
and then it was on a show on IFC
called Benders that was a hockey show
that actually Schultz was on
me and Schultz did that
That's a fun show that was early
That was a fun show
And that was an actual attempt at art
Instead of like MTV Schlock bullshit
You at least tried to be in a sitcom
Yes I tried to do that
And so that got one season eight episodes
And I had another show on Comedy Central
called Stupid Questions
that was like a
you know
it was like an early days
podcast
that's basically what it was
and then I have shows
that I remember this
yeah that I forgot about
like I don't
I've been a part of so many things
in the TV side
that never have seen
the light of day
or have actually been on
then I hosted a show on Vi
I forgot about this
it was called the Super Maximum Retro show
and I hosted that two years ago
and that the highest views
that one got was 10,000 views
So, yeah, I swear to God, dude.
10,000 for a TV show.
Bert and Tom got more views than me.
That's fucking hilarious.
Yeah, so that one I bombed.
And now I have another sitcom in development, so we'll see what happens.
What do you do?
You are getting ran through by these guys, you know,
these executives are just tagging your ass left and right.
They love it, dude, because they know that I'm just a good little network company boy.
But you know what the difference is now?
What I am thankful for, like with the internet illness, is like, now I really can and will just say no if I don't like the idea. Because I'm like, I have what I want. I have, you know, I have the podcast. You'll definitely see.
Oh, yeah. I will. You'll say, just no one's asking right now. So you're pretending you're taking a principled stance. When it's like, hey, we want to do, the Discovery Network wants to do, shave my dog's ball wars. Who can shave their dog's balls closer? And who can get it closer to the skin?
We need a host.
Yeah, I'm like, jazz, I got to get it out there.
We need the new roof.
You know, like, you want a new tits.
I got it.
This is what we got to do, babe.
I love you.
I love my family.
Yeah.
Yeah, I just, I'm just whatever Jimmy Kimmel wants me to do, I'm doing.
Yeah.
Well, that one was, actually, that was a good TV appearance I had when I hosted his show.
I guess hosted a show.
That's, oh, we haven't seen you since then, I don't think.
Really?
I don't know, actually, but I did guess, did we?
We did.
Oh, I'm an asshole.
Yeah.
We definitely talk about it.
And I think you told one of these stories already, but that's fine, dude.
Like I said, we are here to do a bad job.
We didn't do a bad enough job last time, and we've learned our lesson.
Yes.
We have learned our lesson, and we are not going to say anything funny for the next 20 minutes until the show is over.
Well, that's what's happened to me now this deep into my comedy careers.
I've realized I've made up enough stories about my father that I have nothing left to say.
Yeah.
All the ones that I've lied about now, they just, I just have to kind of, what I'm doing now is just going back for specials and saying, I'll do those stories.
because there's probably new fans
half these people are dead
they gave up on me
so now like let's do the bits
I did that last night
at the Houston Punchline
I just was running out of steam
and my new stuff
I was happy with my new stuff
but I was like okay
now I don't want to
and I said you know what
don't do anything from the last special
I went back to my Comedy Central
half hour
and started doing that clothes
and that felt good
I was like I got a different spin on it
and then I started to justify
it to the other comics in the green room
I was like hey you know what man
it's bullshit
that we can't do our old stuff
Let's do it.
This is what the fans want.
It was just because I've been lazy writing.
They're like, yeah, they all work for you.
They're like, yeah, Chris.
No, you're making a really good point.
Yeah, yeah, you're not lazy.
No.
You haven't taken it for granted.
You're just putting an artistic spin on it.
Yes.
I was like, you know, you have saying things like Marcus Aurelius said.
I'm like, you never step in the same river twice.
Yeah, yeah.
And you were seeing these jokes downstream.
Have you, have you, what's your new thing?
You always have a new thing you're obsessed with.
What's going on now?
Finance.
Finance.
finance. Now I'm a big guy. Crypto guy now? No, not crypto. Now I'm going back old school. Now I'm all
about financial advisors and the 1% fees and getting away from them and doing it yourself
and really working on that, simultaneously that and the Revolutionary War.
Oh, interesting. Watching Ken Burns' Revolutionary War just going deep diving about what this
country really means. Yeah, and the Native Americans and learning that. But mainly
over the last week and a half. It's been mostly financed to the point where
Jasmine actually said, hey, Chris, like, I noticed you've been really, like, going crazy, like, with the finance stuff.
She's like, why don't we just set a time once every two weeks? Maybe you and I can, like, go into the backyard or something and just talk about the finances because you're getting, like, a little obsessed. Like, she was like, you know, my daughter, Violet is forced. She was like, you know, you were talking to Violet about bonds. And she doesn't know, like, what that means. And it's just like, I don't think you understand. And I was like, well, I just want her to be absorbing it now and understand what the treasury bond is. She was like, I get that. But she just.
wants to watch Miss Rachel and we just got a puppy oh we got a puppy that's the new thing
that's a new thing I puppy's good yeah I said what is what how can I make my life how can I put the
treadmill to the highest incline and I said let's get a six week old Siberian husky puppy a husky dude
you're stupid stupid the most energetic dog that sheds they're like dickheads too they're like mean yeah
yeah that needs to be walked all the time it's not gonna be hot as fuck hot as fuck shedding it's around
Puerto Rican family who needs it you know who's always like my my the Jasmine is like constantly
constantly constantly freezing when it's like 90 degrees so now it's like you have this dog
that it needs to be 20 degrees at all time so I've messed that. Why did you do why did you pick
Siberian Husky? In fairness in fairness we were getting worn down by our daughters to get a dog
when I didn't want to get one I was resisting and I was like you know what I want these kids to be
happy so I said to jazz let's get like we're not going to stay in a house for four
months, but we will get a dog.
We'll make it even more annoying to move in the future.
Yes.
Yeah, and now we're not be able to do anything.
And I said to myself, I kept saying to her, if we're going to get a dog, then we're
going to go with the best breed.
We're going to go with the master, the one who knows what to do, and that's Adolf Hitler's
Dobermans.
So I said, Dobermans are, that is the dog.
They don't shed.
They are guard dogs, but they also are good with families.
This is the breed to get.
and then she has a friend who got a litter of Siberian husky puppies
and sent Jasmine a photo of them
and then Jasmine said I'm in love now with that one
and next thing you know this dog is on a plane from L.A.
L.A. You flew the dog out? Yeah. Yeah. All of a sudden in my credit card
I thought somebody stole my info in Philly two weeks ago because I'm seeing these pet nannies
that it's I'm getting all these hits and they're on American Airlines. I said what
the hell's going on? I was like oh yeah the I'm flying the dog in. I was like
what the hell and then we didn't really look into it but now we have this dog now the whole family's
attached to this dog and we see that it sheds it needs to be walked four to five miles a day it's not
good with families and and it's and the main reason why i said you know what if we can get a dog
it has to be this way when i'm on the road at least we have you know an extra layer of security
whatever for my family you know and now we come to find out these dogs are called alert dogs
and they're negotiators so they are not going to what they will alert you that's
is breaking into the house but they will do nothing to stop it and as a matter of fact they will
make a decision when the burglar comes in and they might actually leave with them because they
negotiate what's better for me so i got the one of the biggest piece of shit dogs you could possibly
maybe did that is the worst kind of dog possible yes unless you're fucking riding the iditarod
trail or whatever yeah there was and and as a proud 1776 red white and blue american i got
an enemy Russian dog oh yeah it's a Russian dog Siberia
You're right, the Siberian Husky, wow.
Yeah, so now I really just absolutely messed up.
And I actually said to, because she, you know,
the dog is shitting and pissing all over the house.
It's seven weeks old.
So it literally is a seven week old puppy.
You're so fucking stupid.
So dumb.
You love ruining your life, man.
You really love it.
So I found another way to get myself just entrenched in it.
But I did say, because my daughter's now, especially my older one,
she's been like, you know, I want this dog, I want this dog.
And now we're like, you know, you have to kind of.
responsibility for it and so far she's been pretty good but if she goes a few days with zero
responsibility i'm going to take that as an opportunity to say we mean what we say you weren't
responsible for these last two days so now we're giving the dog away no second chances that's it
and you just fucking shoot it in the back of the head you're right there a yellow a healthy puppy
yeah but i will say that so far i was very not and i'm not anti animals i like animals but i was like
I got kids.
I don't want to deal with a dog.
But even though it's a nuisance,
shitting and pissing everywhere,
I actually am very connected to the dog.
There's something in a human,
like we're connected to them in a way
that I don't think science,
or maybe science can explain,
I just haven't gotten to that phase
of being obsessed with it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Right now I'm just busy about the Iroquois.
Of course, of course.
Yeah, I don't know.
Dogs are fucking awesome,
but I just,
it's too much fucking work for me.
Yeah.
I mean, someday I've talked about it,
I really want a fucking fat bulldog.
Oh, yeah.
I just want,
Because, like in 101 Dalmatians
where, you know, they have all the owners
look exactly like their dogs.
Yeah.
I want that.
Fat bulldog with a little fucking little trash suit.
I had a Dalmatian, too, when I was a kid.
Wow.
For three months in a tiny apartment in Brooklyn.
And this is actually when my dad started.
This is the very first time I ever heard my father
asked my mother if he thought I was gay
because my mother let me name the dog, the Dalmatian.
And like, if you had a Dalmatian...
You named it RuPaul?
I named it Cruella.
Crewella, which is like a, you know, like a gay kind of thing to do.
Cuella is a gay icon, exactly, Glenn Close, Crewella.
And I heard my dad say like, oh, who named Crewella?
And she was like, oh, your son, like, you know, because my parents were divorced.
My dad would come get me on the weekends.
And he was like, he named a Crewella?
And then I said, yeah.
And then he didn't know that I had a small apartment.
And he was like, Lynn, you think he's gay?
And she was like, tell me.
Stop it.
He's 11.
And then she was like, yes, I do.
I do.
Well, no, I just remember thinking, oh, it's a Dalmatian.
Like, I could have, you know.
Yeah, yeah.
It's like, no, I'm not gay.
I'm stupid.
Yes.
I just, I named it after the thing
that was trying to kill it in the movie.
Yeah.
It's like, Ruella was that hated the Dalmatian.
That's the whole point of the movie.
And then in three months, my mom was like,
I can't take this anymore.
It was like, you know, because she, we also, you know,
I was in school.
My mom was working.
Well, Dalmatian is another bad for an apartment in the city.
and they're hyper and they need to be walked all the time.
That's why they're good for firehouses.
Exactly.
We weren't doing that.
So the only saving grace I thought is like,
oh, I have a yard where I live now.
I'm like, I can let the dog out in the yard.
But then the vet said, actually, you can't.
You can, but Siberian Huskies
need to be walking on a trail.
They are bred to go 30 miles in the frozen tundra.
So you need to walk.
If it goes in the yard, that'll work for like a couple of days.
But then once it's explored all that,
that's not enough.
You have to have it going different directions.
at all times.
So I do feel a little, like, daunted
because you realize, like, oh, now, you know,
if I want to just pick up with my family
and, like, go somewhere, you can't do that.
Now it's like, who's going to watch the dog, all that?
But I don't know.
That's fine, dude.
I mean, whatever, dude.
My toy, and it's a-
If anything, you can just stay on the road,
that's your wife's problem, you know?
Right, yeah.
Classic.
Like, I left here, I came here,
and, like, my wife's got the dog,
the kids and my dad and stepmom are staying there,
so she's just dealing with all that
while I'm here with you
just eating muffins
no care in the world
just getting paid
to make fun of Burton Tom
Of course, of course, yeah
That is fucking hilarious
Yeah, that's, I mean
you really pick the shittiest
fucking dog you possibly could
Yeah, so it's got beautiful
blue eyes though
It is, yeah, they're cute
I mean my brother had a half
half something
Like half husky
And she was great
But she's still to this day
So fucking energetic
And they literally
They had a kid and they were just like
They just gave it to my mom
So now my mom just has a dog
And she'd never
never wants yeah yeah and her literally an old that the dog almost my grandma like is
hangs out with a dog and we're talking about maybe the least mobile person on her we're talking
about a 94 year old half senile Greek woman and the dog just keeps fucking her up and like
licking her too much but they're friends man they're it's a fun little duo but it is interesting
because a old school Greek woman would she will stab that right like the thing is with
old school Greek women it's like they've slaughtered lambs
Oh, yeah. And that's just like a Sunday. No, no, my grandma, one of her first memories is, like, having a piglet as her pet. And just like, the classic, she loved it. I think the pig's name was boncho. She loved boncho. And then they just fucking had him for dinner one day. She got attached. And it was like, that's how the world works. That's what it is. We're eating boncho. Yeah. Well, I mean, I get it. I get it. You know what's interesting, too, about about this time doing the world.
the Winter Bears is last time we had so many topics that Benson Spoon had prepared. We had
videos from Tom and Bert. Now none of that has been provided. They actually weren't even here
when we got to the studio. They were like, we forgot. Eldis is doing the boards back there.
Yeah, yeah. Benson Spoon is like, you know, yeah, nobody cares. I mean, they had to call in Nadav.
Yeah. They had to call him back in. Yeah, they called them in from Tel Aviv. It was hard. It was hard
to get out. It was hard to get a visa out. Yeah. He was working drones. He was dropping.
bombs on hospitals. Yeah, Nadav left here. He'd rather work for Hamas than the YMH network.
Social media for Hamas. Honestly, if he's doing social media for Hamas, he's doing a great job.
I mean, the edits, some of the things they put out there on YouTube, really great quality.
Which, by the way, that whole piece, I just read on the way, I mean, this is probably coming out a month from now, but I just read that whole piece deal fell apart immediately.
Oh, I mean, it's a complete lie.
I don't. Listen, you want to talk about how we ruin their sponsor, their advertiser sponsors?
It's me talking about my views on the conflict in the Middle East.
Yeah.
I mean, truly, though, it's like, those peace deals are such fucking bullshit, and they immediate,
Israel immediately started fucking bombing people.
And also, it's so funny that, what's funny now is that you thought, everyone joked
that it's like, oh, I guess the world is run by, oh, these rich secret.
and uh someone's got tapes of them having sex with children and then it's like wait that's
literally how the world works like they like Israel fully has videos of Donald Trump getting
stopped off by a child like a hundred percent every time whatever the fuck's going on
whoever it was on Epstein's island they got that in HD I promise you they got better angles than
we that they have here they have fucking Bill Clinton double teaming a fucking double teaming of like
14 year old gymnast with like
fucking Bill Gates. They got that in
4K I promise you that. Oh yeah
lovely and yeah and Nadav is there
cutting up the clips. And I was like
what's the best part of this
yeah let's get the funniest riffs
yeah yeah yeah he's like Mr. Clinton do you want me to zoom in and out on the
subtitles what are we thinking here? Do you want subtitles? I don't know if
that's great for the algorithm anymore
yeah. They have the dark web
TikTok, which is just the best highlights of them having
with Trump.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, dude.
I mean, that is a funny bit that we could do.
It's like, anytime we're really picking up steam, we just talk about Mobbani.
Yeah.
Just watch the fans.
Shout out to him, man.
Shout out to him, man.
Well, it seems like Trump and Mom Dani had a good conversation.
That's the funniest thing.
Trump is, he's so fucking funny, dude.
All you have to do is be like, hello, smile.
If you have the juice and you smile at him and give him a hand,
handshake. Yeah. Like, he's smittened with him. Yeah. He think, like, do you see that picture
him smiling at him? It was fucking, it was literally cute. Yeah. It was like your old,
it's like your grandpa who likes your, it's like when you bring your socialist boyfriend
to Thanksgiving and your racist grandfather actually ends up loving him because he's just a
charming guy. Oh, yeah. It was so fucking funny. Dude. Well, so, but that is good. I mean,
as long as they said, I liked when they had the little interview and Trump, they were going to say,
oh, one of the reporters said something to Mom Donnie, like, are you, do you still think he's a fascist
and Trump's like, you don't have to answer that.
He said, you can say yes.
It'll take too long to explain.
It's like, we got it between us.
Don't worry about them, baby.
And even said, like, I think he'll do a good job.
It's so sometimes, I mean, Trump really is like, he just,
whoever's got the juice, if you flatter him and, you know, just shake his hand and
if you're, if you just stand up to him, I think he respects that.
He does.
And he also, he knows who's got, he knows who's like doing well.
Yes.
He's sort of like a, he knows like, he, like, if you were a loser and you fucking treated him the same way Mom Donnie did, he wouldn't give a fuck.
You know what I mean?
He would, he would demote you.
But he sees, like, his sons, dude, imagine how Don Jr. sees this.
Oh, yeah.
He's like, you're, he's probably, he's never smiled at his sons the way he smiled at Mom Donnie did.
Yeah, yeah.
He's so funny.
He's so mad.
Yeah, it's like in Austin Powers gold member.
Like, when like, Scotty.
Scottie and like he's just connecting with mini me and Scotty's like, fuck you.
Darwin to me
Yeah
Yeah
Well dude
Well that's why
You know like obviously
Zoran Mamdani
You know first Muslim mayor
Of New York
And the flags
The Italian flags
And Ridgewood are flying
At half-mast right now
And listen dude
All I
For me I'm about preparation
And I said you know
We have an incoming
First Muslim mayor of New York
That's why I went to Saudi Arabia
Because I said
Let me see
But it was a preparation
Of course
You got your prayer rugs
Got my prayer rugs
I understood
is what, you know? And so, yeah, so I'm confident now. I'm moving forward. I did love that
where people were like, literally just, he was like, 9-11 happened and we're going to let a
Muslim be mayor? People were saying that like it was a real point. It was like terrorists who
happened to have the same faith 20, whatever years ago. It's like, they were like, they couldn't
understand why people didn't have a problem with that. They were like, yeah, we're just, we're
racist. Yeah, we can't have a Muslim. Dude, it was so funny. Like my group chat, you know, obviously
He was like anti-Mamondani, of course.
So it was funny, like all the guys in the group chat
being like, we were defending our city,
we're getting out to the voting booth,
nobody bought for mayor.
You know what, even though Cuomo's gay,
we're going to vote for Cuomo.
And then like that more, you know,
I don't live in the city anymore.
So I like, like, text to them at like 2 o'clock.
I was like, what did you guys do?
How was the, how was the lines long or whatever?
And everyone was like, dude,
dude, I got hung over.
I didn't go.
And, you know, Patty was like,
I forgot I had to do a golf outing in Jersey.
Like nobody voted.
No, dude.
Yeah, now just everyone's mayor.
Because Cuomo is like a fucking, I mean, it was so funny.
That guy is such a fucking loser.
Just like sexually harassing people and just being like, and losing and then being like, let me do it again.
Yeah.
I want to try it again.
I deserve to.
Well, it's one of those things too now, like his political career in New York is over because like to his, you know, to the base that he could get like the old school like white guys that would vote for him.
All his opponent ever has to say to Cuomo is like, didn't you lose to a Muslim?
And then people would be like, yep he did.
I ain't vote for him.
But I also grabbed my secretary's breasts.
Yeah.
Come on.
So that's one for me.
It cancels out in the Italian voting block.
Yeah.
Oh my God, dude.
Well, what are you going to fucking do?
Well, you know, I'm ecstatic.
You know, I'm Mr.
You're ready to go.
Social services.
You got a burqa lined up.
I'm ready to the burqa case.
Listen, I'm ready to have like, you know.
Well, dude, a Middle Eastern diet will help with your weight loss.
So you can just eat what Mom Donnie eats.
Some kebabs.
Yes.
I'll get some kebabs going.
Dude, just go over.
at his house, whatever they're doing.
I'm looking into Islam now, you know.
It's a beautiful religion.
I love the chanting.
You go to a fucking halal cart and then she's like,
it's fucking awesome.
Dude, I love it.
I mean, Franciscan chants are pretty good too.
Yeah, Gregorian chants.
But I just, there's something about the...
Yeah.
Just kidding it.
It just feels, you know.
Oh, dude, when I went to Saudi Arabia, the dates,
they all had dates and little Arabic tea.
I love it.
I brought it home.
I started, you know, I told my jazz,
go with the dates.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Go to date.
Yeah.
And I said, cover up a little bit.
Yeah.
I've learned something from the emir.
Yes.
From the beloved emir.
Yeah.
As Janus and I said, well, Janus says it on the party.
He's like, you know, the Islam, they have some interesting amenities when it comes to having a wife.
Don't talk back.
Don't, you can show your eyes and that's it.
Well, it appeals to you too because they also just, they just have sex with men on the side.
100%.
They just have like brotherhood.
Like, they hold hands.
They kiss.
T.T. Jerry.
Jasmine's, you know, uncle, you know, who did 20 years in prison and all that, he used to tell us
that most of the guys he'd blow in prison were the guys who led the Muslim gags. And then he said
what one Muslim, this is interesting. They would play the game there. This Muslim guy was like
kept threatening to like kill Jerry, whatever, whatever prison beef. Sure. And then he had, he was
able, he was also blowing a prison security guard and like sucking him. Smart. Right. So he said to
pretty sick to be in jail if you're gay as hell. Yeah. If you like sucking guys off.
if that's your thing?
Yeah.
Why would you even leave?
100%.
Wouldn't you have a great time?
So he was sucking off a prison guard and he said to the prison guard, like, look, dude, I'll
continuously giving you blow jobs, but I'm going to blow this Muslim guy who's threatening
to kill me.
Can you secretly film it?
So.
Well, they pulled in Epstein Island.
Yeah, yeah.
Because the Muslim guys, you know, it can't be out that they're gay like that.
Of course.
So when this guy threatened to kill him, Jerry was like, oh, yeah, well, how about I just post that?
Or how about I just show everyone there?
And then no more beef.
We put it on the CCTV.
Wow.
Sucked his way out of a tickle.
Sucked his way out,
which is what he's taught me a thing or two.
Chris, just in case you ever go to jail.
Yes.
Well, I also wanted to say I forgot to bring this up,
but it is, it's the end of the year,
which means 2026 is coming,
which means people are going to need a new calendar for the year.
Oh, yes.
And we have the official Stavi Baby 2026 calendar.
We have it all here, folks.
Great.
Jack Offiwary.
Yep.
Get head brew.
February. Let's skip ahead to Gapril. I know you like this one, Chris. So I just want to,
I want to let everybody know, you know, we've gone on here. We talked about Chris's Husky and
gay sex. Yes. And we also just want to, we also want to plug our own stuff. And also I want to
say, go get that Stavi calendar because I believe I have full faith in my friend that 2026 is going
to be the last year that he's, it's a heavy, it's a fat boy calendar. 2027, it's going to look
Stavi with AIDS.
It will, I promise that will not happen.
22 and 27, it will still be fat.
Maybe by 2029, I'll be in a large.
Yeah.
One of these, you're going to take it too far.
You're going to start looking like Tom Hanks in Philadelphia.
Dude, that would be, my head is gigantic.
I would look like a fucking pez dispenser.
I would love it.
It is funny how so many fat people just happen to have humongous heads.
And when they lose weight, they look fucking dumb as hell.
Remember Al Sharpton when he lost weight?
He was skinny as fuck.
Yeah.
He's kind of normalized now.
Yeah. But he was a little, he had that mirror selfie, where his head looked huge and he looked
like, it was like a little boy's body. Because maybe it's like you just really, like it's
not, you don't mean to be fat, you're just feeding your head. You know what I mean? Like you just
head just needs a little extra energy, but it just goes dispersed to your body. That's right.
That's possible science. That's an interesting, interesting theory that we will continue to develop
and look into. We're going to take a break. And by break, I mean, we're going to end the episode.
Yes. And when you see us next week, we will have researched this. And we will, we will pick up right
where we left off with the fat head theory. 100%. Go get those calendars and then listen to
history hyenas. We got that and go to Christycomedy.com. I got one date so far in January and it's in
West Virginia. Oh, I'm going to West Virginia too. You're doing the casino down there?
I don't know. I'm somewhere in Morgantown. Oh, no, I'm in like something falls. Oh,
wow. Not even the A market in West Virginia. No, I'm in a casino in West Virginia. So if you can do
what you can and please support Hello Fresh in this podcast. Of course, of course.
I'd like, spring bears might be a necessity for me.
That is, yeah, yeah, you come back.
It's, it's you and, let's see, what fat guy are they going to get instead of me?
Yeah.
You and Sagalow are doing too bad.
Yeah, me and Sagalow.
Yeah, then he doesn't want to do it.
Then it's me and Zachomico.
Then they're weighing Bobby Kelly.
They're like, if you were a little fat or man, but you've lost too much weight now.
Wow, that would be the great irony.
Bobby just gets too skinny instead of making a bunch of money podcast.
Yeah, the moment when he needed to be fat, he was skinny.
would be a, that actually would be like a, yeah, the Greek tragedy of Bobby's life. Yeah.
The second it was, I mean, because it's so funny. He also is the, he literally is the last
guy to not use those. Like, as soon as Ozepic came out, he had already like, he'd already
done the work. Yeah. Yeah. And it's like, that's so funny. Yeah. And it's like,
having a, having a, having a relationship with, with Bobby Kellers, you know, we've both known
for so long. Like, I can just, I was just at the comedy seller and he walked right past me and
didn't say hello. So now this is like the fifth iteration of finding out what Bobby Kelly is mad at
you for. And you have no idea what you did, but you just eventually you'll get a text and he'll
blow up on you. And then you say, Bob, I'm sorry. And then your friends again for another two years.
But the way he walked past, I said, okay, so now there's a new thing that he's mad at.
What did you think? What did you do? I honestly don't know. I honestly don't know.
But I will find out. And then hopefully I'll find out by next episode and I'll read the text
on the show and then get him mad at me again. I can't wait. Well, thanks, guys. That is episode
one of the winter bears. We are here with you for four weeks, I believe. That's what so far.
And, you know, we'll have some holiday stuff.
Let us know topics you want us to cover in future episodes.
We won't be able to do it.
Of course.
And we won't listen.
Yeah.
These are pre-recorded in an even more hilarious fashion than the last ones were.
Yeah.
But just we'll pretend we listen to you.
Yeah.
In fact, let's make up questions for the people asked next episode.
Perfect.
Thanks, guys.
We love you.
We'll see you next week.
Bye.
wears the shirt. Tom tells stories and birds the machine. There's not a chance in hell that they'll keep
clean. Here's what we call two bears one cave.
