Hey Nick, hey Andy
It's Will from Northern California
And uh
I couldn't help but uh
Overhear you guys in the last podcast
Talking about Denver and you know
Compared to LA and California
You know how pretty much has everything
California or LA has
And it just so happens you know
I'm in Denver for my very first time for work
this week. And I gotta say, man,
you guys' fucking nitrous
prices are out of control. I mean, it's
like, I don't know what inflation has hit you
guys out here, man, but
fucking what I pay in California is triple
what you motherfuckers have to pay out here in Denver.
And I don't know what
fucks up with that. Also, your fucking
weed is super expensive,
about double to three times the amount. So, I mean, yeah, I mean, besides that, you know,
Denver is pretty cool. Met some hotties over off of East Colfax the other night. That was a good
time. But yeah, you know, you also see a baseball game for three or four dollars. That was pretty
awesome. So, you know, maybe next time I'm in town, we all three of us will catch a baseball game for three or four dollars that was pretty awesome so you know that maybe next time i'm in town uh we all three of us will catch a baseball game you know coke and hot dogs
on me i'm not talking about the cola take care boys all right we don't see each other one more
there we go we don't see each other for a long time. We lose the pace of our hearts.
It hasn't really been as long.
I thought about it.
That tour wasn't that crazy.
No.
That's what I realized, too.
This was a good one.
Oh, but you went to that other shit for it.
You went to your friend's wedding.
Yeah.
And did content the whole time.
I knew you were going to fucking say something about that.
Andy Frasco's World Saving Podcast.
I'm Andy Frasco. I'maving Podcast. I'm Andy Frasco.
Back with my co-host with the most is us winning silver in the Signal Awards.
Just like Nancy Kerrigan.
Just like Nancy Kerrigan.
94.
Moving up.
94 Winter Olympics.
Nancy Kerrigan.
Silver medal.
That's us.
Even though I think award shows are a fucking joke.
Yeah, right.
I love awards. You know how much I love trophies. I was going to say joke. Yeah, right. I want, I love award.
You know how much I love trophies.
I was going to say, if you got nominated for a Grammy, you would melt.
I would melt.
And now you're over here like, I don't like award show.
I don't know.
Cause I got silver.
Like, let's say.
We wanted to win it.
God damn it.
Let's say I got nominated for some weird off-brand jazz, weird category.
Okay.
And you also got nominated for song
from a Chevy commercial of the year or whatever.
I could see me not going to the Grammys.
Because then I could tell people I didn't go.
Oh, you're so edgy.
Not edgy, but it's just kind of like,
I don't know.
I bet it sucks.
The after party,
I bet, is fun. I think the Grammys would suck
if you're in like a fucking
really obscure category.
Like the snarky puppy categories and shit?
You know they used to have a polka category
for a long time? Yeah.
Really? And they...
The same guy won it like 18 out of 25 years,
so they just kind of like quit In the 90s
From like 70s to 83
One of our friends got a Grammy nomination
Not say who
But like they put him in the back of the fucking venue
Well yeah
It's by how famous you are
That's bullshit
But anyway thanks for the silver award
Sickles award
You did it
You got our money
Whenever I feel like there's a crowd
It was a little kind of expensive
You're welcome
It's funny how you have to pay for clout
Yeah, it's just a game
It's to weed out so they don't get like
It makes sense actually
On a business level for them
Because if you just let anyone,
um,
are you turning me down a little bit?
Turn you up.
Okay.
If you,
uh,
just put anyone,
let anyone in,
they would get too many applications.
It's like why you have to apply to pay to apply to a college.
Right.
If Harvard didn't make you pay $200 to apply,
just random kids would be applying to Harvard as a joke and they'd have to go through it all day.
That's a good point. And there's it all day. That's a good point.
And there's so many podcasts.
That's a good point.
It wasn't that much.
What about if it was an awards ceremony,
but like the crowd voted?
That's what ours was.
Yeah, I know.
Oh, but you mean like a cloud applause-o-meter?
Yeah, like it's basically...
That's how they should do the Grammys, actually.
That'd be fucking awesome.
So like they come out and it's like,
they're like, whatever.
Pick a category. Best, like, they come out and it's like, they're like, whatever. Pick a category.
Best
bluegrass record.
Yeah, so it's like Billy Strings comes out. Like, they line
up. They announce them all right, and then they line them up.
And then a hot chick probably
just
stands over each one,
and everybody cheers, and they have an applause-o-meter.
But it's like, it's an applause-o-meter
like in Saved by the Bell where it's
just a person being held up
doing their arm
for the thing. It's just all
subjective as shit. I mean, it's subjective anyway.
Who gives a shit? It's all subjective.
So we might as well just blatantly make it subjective.
But we should do it all
live screen. Just obnoxiously objective.
By screen. That's how we should do President.
Fuck it. Everybody
goes to the Capitol. We all go to the
Capitol. There's too many.
Maybe we just each... How would we do
this? We have to have
like a Vanna White or someone just like...
Yeah, yeah. But how do we get everyone to
screen vote? I don't
like how we send in a vote.
We have to vote in person. No, it has to be through
audio. Who gets the votes? Maybe we just send our electoral college representatives we vote for that and then
we do it that way it's a little more subjective because maybe you maybe you have more electoral
college people right maybe you got you only need 270 to win right so let's say you got 280 but
maybe they're not as loud maybe you have a bunch okay i'm god i just solved the government i just
solved the government hold on let me let me do this all right cook so you loud. Maybe you have a bunch of... Okay, I just solved the government. I just solved the government. Hold on. Let me do this.
All right, cook.
So you have this...
So you have more.
Let's say you have 290
and they have whatever the other one is.
That's less.
You have more.
So in theory, you'd win,
but you fucked up
and you elected like Nancy Pelosi type people again.
And they're all 90.
They're all 80.
And they're like,
yay, good job.
Hope you win.
Yeah.
And then all like the Republican MAGA people. Yeah, brother! They just fucking like... They're like, yay. Good job. Hope you win. Yeah, and then all the Republican MAGA people.
Yeah, brother!
They just nominate.
Taylor Mary, G. Green, or whatever.
Yeah, it's all just Sigma New guys from fucking Ole Miss and shit.
That's how we should do the president vote.
So that'll inspire people to vote for younger people
as their representatives.
Let's use the House of Representatives,
not the Electoral College, because then the vote will affect it more.
So we're turning this into...
That's why I should be mayor of Indianapolis,
because I have ideas like that.
I agree on your
idea of it,
but I also do not agree
on
you trying to win mayor
when I've basically...
I've been there more than you have, actually,
in the last couple years.
So I know more about Indiana.
You know way more about Indiana.
I went for three times last year.
So do you want someone who's just going to phone it in from Denver,
or do you want a mayor who's going to be there in the fucking streets?
In there.
Three times a year, at least, I'll be visiting your town.
Three times a year.
He'll be there three times.
I'm going to move there.
If I'm mayor, I'm going to live in the mayor's mansion
no you're not
I don't think there's a mayor's mansion
it's probably like a nice
three-rider ranch
it's like a
it's like a
high window loft
yeah
it's like pretty good
it's like 800 a month
still yep
so you know
choice is yours Indiana
you want a guy who will
just beat you down
and tell your city that you're trash
and get more money?
I got good ideas.
Or you're going to need a guy who's going to hype up.
I'm going to hype up fucking Indiana.
I like Indiana.
That's why I'm wearing a Cleveland hat right now.
Oh, I loved seeing Halliburton
go into every grocery store
giving out a $50 gift card from King Soopers.
That works on the people of Indianapolis, man.
That's the kind of thing.
That's how you win over the hearts and minds of the Hoosiers.
I love seeing these old white people like,
we love you, boys.
We're going to root for you.
Y'all are so handsome.
Y'all are so handsome, and we love you.
Come here.
Bless your heart.
You could never, that wouldn't work for a Lakers player.
People don't give a shit about that in LA.
No.
Yeah.
They could go around like buying homeless people houses
and people be like, come on on let's get to 60 wins
You know what I mean
Speaking of 60 wins
Our fantasy basketball draft
Just drafted last night
We're cooking I have a good team
I'm playing with house money man
You're playing with house you were the last pick I was the 5th pick
Doloff was the 1st pick
I thought you were the 4th pick
No no 5th Jack I was a first pick I thought you were the fourth No, no Fifth
Jack
That was a shitty pick
Really?
I love Giannis
But like the fifth is so
I thought it was just Giannis
Giannis, sure
But the fifth pick
Cares are Greek
Cares are Greek
They only invented society
Yeah
I wish I learned Latin
It'd be sick
They speak Greek there though
Not Latin
I know but back in the day
Like you said
Like they created society.
I mean, Latin... They had Latin at my high school, actually.
I had Latin.
I left after two weeks.
I'm like, I'm not going to pay attention.
Every language, all the Romance languages
are based on Latin, though.
English is based on Latin, so is Spanish,
Italian, French.
I like the Greek.
They got good food. They don't put a lot of cheese in their stuff.
I like that.
Yeah, and it's olive oil.
Have you been to Greece?
I used to do my vacations in Greece by myself.
Oh, yeah, that's where you wrote your manuscript.
I wrote my manuscript.
I'm going to fucking find that thing.
No, you're not.
I'm going to read it live.
I've been talking with this author.
He's actually pretty cool.
We might write a book.
What kind of book?
I don't know yet.
Probably a fiction book about my life How's that fiction if it's about your life?
Well I don't want to say it's about my life
I don't want to say it's about my life
What's the character's name?
Andy
That's a biography Andrew
Non-fiction
Yeah you're right I don't want to write a book anymore It's a biography, Andrew. Non-fiction.
Yeah, you're right.
I don't want to write a book anymore.
I don't want to write a book anymore.
It's like a fiction about World War II.
I don't want to write a memoir about myself. I'm too young to write a memoir.
Harry Truman.
But I do want to write kind of like a Jack Kerouac style story of the road.
Hell yeah, bro.
That's so fucking cool, man.
God, Noel, I'm not doing that anymore.
Whatever, I'm making a trivia point.
I'm just fucking with you. You just blow my
dreams up. I mean, that is so... You blow
my dreams up. That's not one of your dreams. That's just
something you think would look cool.
No, I want... That's not one of your dreams. It's not.
You don't sit up at night thinking, what if
I could write a book? You're right.
It's not a dream.
You'd like to say you did that, but it's not a dream. You'd like to say you did that, but
it's not a dream.
If it was a dream, you'd be writing all the time.
I'd like to have my
road
situation be documented.
No, I get that. That's cool. Why don't you do
a fictional book and the characters a little
more loosely based on you? That's what I want to do.
Yeah, but name it something
else even. Maybe he's not Andy
I was joking about
The Andy thing
Maybe he's
Derek Lagrange
Derek Lagrange
From Cleveland, Ohio
Yeah and he's like
Just a blue collar boy
Take by in a van
Jacking off
Every time he's alone
Every time he's alone
He's jacking off
You can't find him
He's jacking off
It's just him Trying to jack off off. You can't find him. He's jacking off.
It's just him trying to jack off.
I've actually been
bored of jacking off. Yeah, it's not
that great. No, it's not that tight anymore.
I don't feel that good, actually.
I don't know. I was just so addicted to it
because I just had it
in my brain, like, do that and then relax and go
to bed. It's a soothing mechanism.
Yeah.
Yeah, but everything's boring.
Everything's boring.
It's just the older you get,
everything's just so stupid and boring.
I know.
I try to get into TV shows,
and I just, like, lose interest
after fucking, like,
fucking one episode.
Yep, they're all fucking stupid, too.
Everything's so boring.
Right.
People say life's short.
I don't know about that, man.
I'm, like, halfway done. It's like, what too. Everything's so boring. Right. People say life's short. I don't know about that, man. I'm like halfway done.
It's like, what the fuck, dude?
Like, they're making another...
We're not even halfway done.
They're doing another Frasier.
That's why we got to...
So fucking stupid.
They are doing another Frasier.
I'm trying not to use the monitor so much, but goddamn.
It's not a monitor.
It's a soundboard.
You're right.
I just like, yeah, but also.
Who's going to watch the new, who's watching this shit?
Why are you watching the new Frasier?
Don't watch it.
I hate Frasier so much.
Why do you hate Frasier so much?
Oh, isn't that peculiar?
That's what Frasier is to me.
Niles, come over here.
Look at this.
Is this burnt?
I think that's.
That's my impression of Frasier.
But that's all that fucking 90s sitcom.
Do you think I burned it?
No, Friends wasn't like that.
Friends was like...
Hell yeah.
Friends was way more goofy.
It was just hotter.
There were hotter people than Frasier.
Frasier's other...
No, Frasier tried to be smart,
but it's like, you're a sitcom.
You have a laugh track.
You can't be smart and tell people when to laugh.
But like, Jennifer Aniston was just super hot.
I don't like Friends either,
so I'm not going to defend that.
Damn it.
I only like Seinfeld.
I don't fuck with Friends. My sisters love Friends. I was like friends either So I'm not gonna defend that Damn it I only like Seinfeld I don't fuck with friends
My sisters love friends
I was like
It's not that tight
Ross is a piece of shit
Human being
Yeah
He like has a kid I guess
He saw him four times
In eight years
Like how does everyone
Like still become friends
When you have like
Four hot people
In an apartment
They're all gonna fuck each other
And hate each other afterwards
They kinda did all fuck each other
Didn't they
But they didn't hate each other
They loved each other still Oh yeah that's not real It's fake as fuck each other, didn't they? But they didn't hate each other. They loved each other still.
Oh, yeah.
That's not real.
Fake as fuck.
And they still live together.
If you're gonna live out there
and shit where you sleep,
eventually everyone's gonna
fucking hate each other.
Have you ever watched
those YouTube clips
where it's like friends
but they take the laugh track out?
No.
It's so fucking bad.
I mean, it's not funny at all.
Yeah.
It's weird how a laugh track
can do that.
I'm just kidding.
You don't have one?
I don't have a laugh track. We do that too. That's what's funny about it. We literally It's weird how Laugh Track can do that. I'm just kidding. You don't have one? I don't have a Laugh Track.
We do that too. That's what's funny about it.
We literally do the
podcast version of that and I'm making fun of it.
Seinfeld ruled. Seinfeld ruled.
There's good sitcoms.
Curb Your Enthusiasm ruled.
Is that a sitcom though? I wonder if that's a sitcom.
That's not a sitcom. Because it's like the way
it's shot and stuff. Coach ruled.
I've been watching Coach a little bit. I fucking loved Coach. It's cool. It's actually, I mean, it holds up. It's not a sitcom. Because it's like the way it's shot and stuff. Coach ruled. I've been watching Coach a little bit. I fucking loved
Coach. It's cool. It's actually, I mean,
it holds up. It's not as funny, like,
but in a good way. Because those 80s
sitcoms, they tried to have a story more.
It was more like a little 22-minute play every
week. Right. And there's still a laugh
track sometimes, but it's not as constant. And it's
after a joke. And Jerry Van Dyke is goddamn
hilarious. The old guy.
He is so funny in that show.
I forgot how...
He won't even say words.
He'll just mumble something and you're laughing your ass off.
It's so weird how funny he is.
It's good.
And it's about football, so I like that.
Do you think the reason why we're just so bored with content
is because there's so much content?
Right, but there's so much content, right?
So that means it's worse, too.
We're in the shallow end.
We're in the kiddie pool.
Yeah.
It's just like nothing's... It's so hard get find good content because there's so much shitty content people are like nothing's making money it's like because you're making too much
shit if you make 80 things that don't make money the 20 things that make do make money don't make
up for that put more money into stuff that's gonna make money but our brains are changing
and you need to have new shit all the time no i'm not blaming not blaming. And also, I'm not even blaming whoever makes this shit.
It's like the same people that get mad at the media
for only showing certain things.
Well, that's what people are asking for.
It's a business.
It's supply and demand.
You're demanding this, they're supplying it.
So if you want different shit, watch different shit.
So you're saying I should start enjoying beating off again?
Yeah, why not?
Okay. You should put ads during a jerk-off session somehow.
That'll income.
You could find some way to get someone to sponsor you jerking off.
It's only fans.
No, I mean like sponsor it.
Your fans?
No, when you're alone, there's no video.
I'm just beating off
and the minute it's
kind of like the circle death. like Kind of like You know the circle
The death
The circle death
We beat the Game of Thrones podcast
We beat the Game of Thrones
Fuck you Game of Thrones podcast
Yeah fuck you Game of Thrones podcast
The show's over

movies are so good. I think he's like the funniest
guy in Hollywood. Oh, yeah. He lives in Charleston.
Yeah, I think that's where they make the show.
It's kind of based in that area. He's the best.
He also wrote
the new Halloween movies, kind of Halloween movies He's involved in some way

I hung out with all those dudes

In Malibu
Shout out to Danny Zagayer
Congratulations big boy
We love you
Danny Z got married
To this beautiful woman
She does knitting
She's a pro knitter
She does it for like
all these big corporate companies that will make like
ads with knits.
It's so rad. London, you're the shit.
I'm so happy you guys...
And she's from the valley where I grew up.
It sounds like her mom's like Gwyneth Paltrow
or something. And she's hip as fuck.
And her sister is
like a super big comedian
that we all know.
Was she at the wedding? Yeah, it was so funny. Sister is like a super big comedian that we all know.
Was she at the wedding?
Yeah.
Yeah, it was so funny.
When everyone, this is one thing about LA, which was so funny.
I'll tell you, I think you'll love this shit.
All the speeches are made by actors.
Oh my God, yes. So you know what I'm saying?
So everyone, or a comedian.
I would have had a heyday at this thing.
They have a mode they get into.
Musicians are annoying too
in a different way.
Oh yeah.
We're like,
we all hate ourselves.
I love when,
we're like too down on ourselves
and they're the other way.
Yeah.
Man,
they have high tech drugs
in Los Angeles now.
I mean,
they have that.
They had like MDMA candies
that were so good.
They had this like saline,
they had MDMA candies
that were so delicious.
Candies?
Little candies.
At Zegar's wedding?
Yeah.
My buddy brought like...
The drugs.
Friends.
Okay.
Was McLovin there?
Yeah.
But he brought...
It was so funny.
He put it in a gift bag.
Yeah.
We got a little cooler as the thing went on.
Why?
Was he not like you or something?
We don't like each other.
Why?
Because you're hot?
Because... Because you got more famous than me. I was the first one to call off his bullshit.
Oh, I don't know his personality.
I've known him since November.
What the fuck?
Do you have another thing going on in the back of your head? This is why I can't smoke weed.
It's like a ticker at the bottom of CNN.
Is that what's going on in your mind right now?
No, it's just when I smoke weed, it's hard for me to concentrate.
You called Adam Denver and then you called the year November.
So you're obviously thinking about something you have to do in Denver.
Long December.
Yeah, what I'm thinking...
I should do a fucking jam.
I'm thinking about the Ogden show on January 26th.
We're playing the Ogden people, Denver, Colorado.
I should do an organ trio version of that song.
That'd be cool.
I might do that actually.
Anyway. While I'm thinking about that, January I might do that, actually.
Anyway.
While I'm thinking about that, January 26,
Denver, Colorado. We are playing at the Ogden. 10th Mountain?
With 10th Mountain Division, our boys, Cooney.
Yeah, we do have a lot to talk about. We've got to talk
with the crews. We've got to talk about touring.
So come on out, and we'd
love to see you there.
No, what I was saying with Mintz.
I did get a little jealous that he got super famous when he was in junior and high school.
But that wasn't the reason.
He was back lucky a little bit too.
No offense.
Because we were homies when it was early years.
Like 19, he flew out to New York.
We hung out.
He stayed in my pad in Brooklyn when he got super famous and he couldn't even get outside.
Like every time he went everywhere.
I mean, he was like the guy.
We were in the New York Times for having a fake ID
and brought it to some diner.
And they called us out.
That hipster-ass Williamsburg.
It's kind of funny because he can't.
That's like what his character did.
Oh, I didn't think about that, yeah.
And then he's doing it in real life.
But we were cool.
And then we kind of squashed the beef a little bit.
I squashed the beef with my boy Hunter, too.
A lot of them are just working out their own shit.
Yeah, they are.
Everyone has an ego in LA.
So everyone's kind of...
They protect theirs.
So they talk shit about everyone else.
So everyone's just fucking talking shit to each other.
So they protect their own.
Because the minute you start stabbing them...
But they can't take it back.
They can't take it back.
That's why I like the Midwest.
We can take it. Our parents did it. That's why I like the Midwest. Yeah.
We can take it.
Our parents did it.
That's why I'm excited to go to Boston.
Boston.
Draft Kings.
I can't believe Draft Kings is flying us out there.
Yeah, I love gambling.
I'll read ads for four hours.
We got to go in there because they're playing the Bills.
We have to roll in there.
I'm going to deck out in all Los Angeles.
You are?
All Laker.
I'm going to deck it out.
Is that annoying?
Probably.
Probably, but who cares?
Who cares?
Bo is going to deck out in Buffalo Bills.
I need to get more... Bills, Patriots really hate each other too, right?
Is that a rivalry?
I'll wear my Browns hat.
Then you just wear your Browns hat.
That's a cool hat though.
That's a sick hat.
Yeah.
But no, I mean, it's like, you're like, yeah, go Brown.
You're like...
I don't know.
The quarterback's kind of... I know. He's a little... Defense is killing though. I'm rooting, go Browns. I don't know. The quarterback's kind of...
I know. He's a little...
Defense is killing, though. I'm rooting for the Browns defense.
They're the best defense in the NFL right now.
So anyway, it's going to be fun.
We're going to go out there for 24 hours.
I love the Browns.
I don't get too crazy about my teams.
It's just like...
I don't want to get a parasocial relationship with it.
Do you think DraftKings will be pissed
if we're going to all roll in there?
Because they're giving us the box.
We're going to meet all the owners.
I don't think they support one team at DraftKings.
Oh, yeah.
I forgot the gambling website.
But they are from Boston.
They invited us into their box.
And we're hanging out with them.
So do we have to be appropriate?
Or can we black out and start talking shit?
I think that's what Boston people do.
Yeah, that's the thing.
One of the best shows we had on the tour was Boston, Massachusetts.
Yeah, they love you there, ironically.
It's fucking awesome.
Because they can handle shit talk.
Well, the rivalry is fun.
It's like a good thing.
Neither of you have been that good. Yeah. I told them
since the 80s, you know, so. I said,
I wish I could see Fenway Park, but I forgot
it's October.
And they fucking hated that. Yeah, but they,
that's not, I mean, even true.
Yeah, but like, you know, they've won like four championships
in the last 20 years. It's like, you know, you really got
us. The Dodgers blow it more
than the Red Sox do. What?
You LA teams, you love those COVID championships
Shut the fuck up
I'm thinking, you know, I've been
Because I was like, I love the East Coast so much
This whole tour of the Northeast was fucking amazing
Portland, Oregon
Or Portland, Maine, fucks
Yeah, I haven't been there, it's like one of the cities I haven't been to
That was a fucking great city
Cleveland, Ohio, dude
Yeah, they go crazy there
Kyle Gask flew out
I saw that, that's cool
No he said he didn't want to
But we have something planned for next year
Nice, is that what I think it is?
Yeah, it's going to be awesome, I can't announce it yet
I know but it's an obvious thing
Yeah, obvious thing
And then
But you know what town I would low-key move to?
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Certain parts of it
It is
Okay
There's still a lot of heroin and drugs
Yeah, there's that one
Killings
Yeah, have you seen the videos of that Kensington stretch?
Yeah, it's like heroin
It looks like The Wire, like Amsterdam and The Wire
I kind of want to live near that area
I want to live in Fishtown.
No, but yeah, that's where
a lot of Lotus guys live around there.
I'd buy a house in South Philly
and just have like a Denver pad and a
East Coast pad. It's probably not that bad.
They said it's not that expensive.
Probably cheaper than here.
But we played during the Phillies game. God, I love
Philadelphia fans. They're apeshit about baseball.
Everybody hates them, but I like it. It's cool. Yeah, I agree. I think they're one of the coolesties game. God, I love Philadelphia fans. They're apeshit about baseball. Everybody hates them, but I like it. It's cool.
Yeah, I agree. I think they're one of the
coolest fan bases. I like that
they threw batteries at Santa Claus. I like that
it's equal opportunity. I like that
the city of Philadelphia has to
grease up their poles because people
are going to climb the poles.
Like, it's a playoff
game, guys. You don't need to climb
a goddamn pole
or eat horse shit.
Do you hear about that?
They are eating horse shit and shit.
What?
They're eating horse shit.
Bo, can you Google?
Yeah, Google this.
Everybody's eating horse shit?
There's a video of a dude
just after celebrating some Eagles win.
Oh my God.
They saw the police horse
and just grabbed it
and started eating horse shit.
I fucking love that
about a fan base.
I want fans like that.
I do kind of have fans like that.
Your fans are super trashy.
You're right.
Shut the fuck up.
No, I don't think
Philly fans are trashy.
I don't either.
I don't know.
You could argue that eating horse shit is kind of trashy. I don't either. I don't know. I think they're passionate.
You could argue that eating horse shit's kind of trashy.
I think you could make a pretty good argument.
Not every fan's eating horse shit.
I think one guy ate horse shit, and now they're the horse shit fan base.
That's kind of how it works.
What's it say, Bo?
Eagles fan literally eats horse poop after Super Bowl win.
That's why I love Philly.
Let's go, Philly. You're dedicated
and I love it.
You're dedicated and I fucking love it.
That's the shit. Yeah, shout out
to Little Stranger. John
went to both games. Look at this. Look at this
video. Oh my God, he's eating horse shit.
Oh my. Do you think people gave him money?
Oh my God. I can't watch that.
I can't. Okay, we're done. I don't like poop.
I will vomit. I will vomit. I don't like poop I will vomit I will vomit I don't like poop
I think barf is hilarious
But I'm not a poop
No I'm not a poop
I can't smell
I can't stand the smell of urine
When people throw up from something
That makes me laugh so hard though
Yeah
I like the idea of being like
So emotionally something
That you throw up
Or like something being so funny
You throw it
And for you know
How much I shit talk
About the city of Boston
It actually is
A fucking really cool city
It's okay It's not my favorite,
to be honest. I'm excited to have one night there.
Packy's in town. We're going to go blackout
for a little Saturday. Who's Packy?
Packy owns the chicken box.
I should hit up all my
homies from Nantucket. Yeah, but it's
a ferry away. Oh, yeah. I don't
understand Massachusetts. I guess supposedly
it's the biggest day
and biggest weekend. I don't know.
I'm excited to go spend a little
time in Boston. They love races
there in Boston, don't they?
I'm trying to
sell to Paradise.
Paradise? Yeah, and New York
was fun as fuck. I couldn't believe we sold 1,300 tickets.
Yeah.
New York!
That whole run was fun
Shout out to everyone
Who came out to that run
That was a great run
I wanna be

Marlboro, Richmond, Philly,
Brooklyn. That was dope.
We're about to leave for
another tour, guys.
This 10 days was fun. I've just been sleeping my ass dope. We're about to leave for another tour, guys. This 10 days was fun.
I've just been sleeping my ass off.
You're going to Europe.
I did hang out with...
It was great.
We had dinner.
I don't care.
I'm not one of your friends that gives it...
Why do friends do that?
They give a shit about what their single friends do?
I just wanted to talk about it.
No, no, no.
Maybe my fans want me to hear about my life,
but every time I try to throw something at you,
it's like, no, I don't care.
That means my fans don't care for this podcast.
That's not what I'm saying.
That's not what I'm saying.
I'm saying you probably have friends who are like,
don't hang out with her.
Yeah.
I don't care.
That's what I'm saying.
That's cool that you hung out.
Who cares is my point.
I care that you have a life. I don't care. I just want to be friends with people. I'm telling you that I don't care That's cool that you hung out Who cares is my point I care that you have a life
I just want to be friends with people
I'm telling you that I don't care
I'm on your side is what I'm saying
And you turned it into some weird thing
You just never want to talk
You just want my fans
Every time I lob ball you something to talk about
You're like nah we're not having that on the podcast
No but what I'm saying is
Don't listen to your friends that say don't hang out with people.
I have HPV.
Everybody has HPV.
See, same again.
See, you don't want to talk about it.
I can literally say anything.
Okay, do another one.
Okay, okay.
Yo, dude, I think my grandfather came back to life
after they saw his hand start digging up dirt.
Okay, that's actually really interesting.
Go on.
I saw you guys were breaking that TV.
Yeah.
That was fun as shit.
I don't want to talk about it anymore.
Anyway,
we have tour dates.
We're going on the Bert Kreischer cruise.
You're coming with us on a comma.
See you a lot.
These two weeks.
I know.
Bert Kreischer.
We're the house band for the Bert Kreischer.
And we're judging. And we're judging a Speedo contest.
Burt wants to show off his delts or whatever.
Yeah, that's your shoulders, right?
He's got good shoulders.
Have you seen him lately?
He takes off his shirt and he does that thing
with his, you know, how you like push your shoulders
together to get like a fucking whatever muscle
here showing.
It's looking good.
Isn't that traps too?
I don't know.
But anyway,
your neck looks good, Bert.
I think delts are your
like shoulders and traps
are like the trip.
Looking good.
So we're doing that for five days.
We got Andy Westby
coming on that trip too.
Shorgasm?
Shorgasm.
And Andrew Cooney
is going to be the bass player
because Floyd can't do it.
Shorgasm is going to be on the cruise?
Yeah.
Oh, nice. It's going to be a fucking fun because Floyd can't do it. Shorgasm is going to be on the cruise? Yeah. Oh, nice.
It's going to be a fucking fun-ass trip.
No girls either.
I told no wives.
What?
I said no wives.
This is a dude's trip.
Burt Kreischer would only want this one way.
Yeah, that's true.
It's a dude's trip.
He likes the ladies.
I know.
But in my own brain,
boys, we're going to have a bond.
It's going to be a bonding.
Don't listen to them when they tell you not to hang out with your exes
Listen to me
Do what you want to do Andy
I wasn't even sexual it just went out
That's what I'm saying
I know what you're saying
You're missing the point that I'm on your side
I know what you're saying Nick
Well then acknowledge it
You are my everything
I'm not your everything.
I'm just saying,
don't listen to other single people.
No, they're all married.
Oh, but definitely
don't listen to married people.
Who am I going to listen to?
Me.
I'm right in the middle.
I'm like, okay.
I know how to,
you know what I mean?
So let me pitch these tour dates
before,
and then we can keep talking.
Thank you.
After we go on the cruise,
so that's from the 20 cents with 31st.
I think there's a couple cabins left,
but if you want to ball out,
I mean,
it's going to be expensive.
So my fans,
if you don't want to do that,
you should be buying frasco tickets.
If you're going to do the money,
if you're going to do the Bert cruise,
you would have got them by now.
True.
Cause you got to get flights in two days.
It's going to be expensive.
So fly out to the other days,
Nashville.
We're playing Brooklyn Bull
on November 2nd. Asheville,
North Asheville. Do I need
to give you the Rocky pump up? Asheville, North Carolina.
We're
not playing inside this time. They bumped us
up to the 3,000 camp amphitheater.
And we need you.
Two flamingos and us need you.
So don't pretend like you're not
going to go and then buy a thousand plus tickets
at the door. Just make me feel good.
If you buy tickets, tell me you bought
tickets and I'll waive a ticket
fee for our merch. We'll give you a percentage of merch.
Okay? Wow.
Alright. I want to sell it out.
Salvage Station? I was looking at the numbers. I'm like,
damn, this is embarrassing. Salvage Station?
Yeah. I like that venue.
Because we could sell it out.
We could sell it indoor with the tickets
we have sold now. But indoors,
we put our dick out there and said, we're going to the amphitheater.
Do you think people are holding off to see how the weather
is going to be?
I just think
people aren't buying tickets right now.
I know, but there is a weather
aspect to this because it's November.
Oh, yeah. And it's outside. So maybe they're like, I'm going to wait to this because it's November. It's outside.
I'm going to wait to see how the forecast is.
We're just moving inside.
I know, but guys, don't wait.
Just get the ticket.
It's okay. Wear a jacket. It's not that cold.
November 4th, we're going to
Atlanta, Georgia. Variety Playhouse.
That's actually selling really good. We're almost sold out there.
Come on out.
How big is that? 1,000?
1,100.
And then November
5th, we are in Raleigh, North Carolina at the Lincoln
Theater. I love the Lincoln Theater. That was cool. I played there with you
that one time. It was sick. I like
Raleigh, actually. Yeah. General.
I loved it. And then we are flying
to London. Man, I got first
class. Let's fucking go. My first time, first
class. That's good for international.
Yeah. You know, you
gamble with it when you do those United true
points. What? You just like...
How does that work for United?
So I'm at like 1K. I'm like at the highest.
So like I buy economy ticket and
then I have to... Because I'm at 1K,
they give you the like special
true point, pump up points.
So I said... So I gave
60. That's the highest you could do.
Oh, you can like, but you might not get them
and they're gone if you don't get them.
No, they give you back the points.
But I got the upgrade.
Oh, but the gamble is you didn't just buy the ticket.
Yeah, the gamble is you could just spend the extra
$1,000, $2,000, but no.
If you're going to spend money, spend them on dialed-in gummies.
Dialed-in gummies!
Buy yourself some dialed-in gummies.
The best gummies on the planet.
I haven't talked to those guys.
I talked to Keith yesterday.
They're good.
We'll give the real pitch because I really want to see what they're up to.
November 7th, we fly to London.
Oh, you're doing more dates.
I just want to finish up this.
I know you're pumping the Europe dates.
Yeah.
We got to sell tickets.
London.
I don't have a lot of friends in London.
I don't know anything about London.
I went once to chase a girl.
My mom's from there.
I hung out with her for two days.
She was very...
She let me sleep over,
but we slept in different rooms.
I like that.
I like her.
Respect.
That's fucking badass.
And then...
Was she British or was she just a little bit?
British.
Super British. And she was cool. We's fucking badass. And then... Was she British or was she just a little bit? British. Super British.
And she was cool.
We went out and had a couple beers and they love like the disco.
Yeah, that's how they do electronic music in Europe.
Yeah.
I didn't like how...
Techno.
Techno.
The cigarettes were $13 for half a pack.
For 10 cigs.
Isn't that kind of where New York City's heading?
Yeah.
But then we lost touch.
So maybe I'll see her again.
But I think she's married.
I hope they bring the husband
because I still want to be friends with her.
She was cool. I like British people.
You didn't touch her, obviously.
There's nothing weird.
But you know, sometimes you don't want to
bring your husband to your old self. Being him. Yeah, I get it. Bring your husband to your old self.
Like being him.
Yeah,
I get it.
You know what I'm saying?
You want to see this band I saw 10 years ago?
Yeah.
It was like 10 years ago.
I kind of had a thing with the guy up there.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Everybody's cheering for.
Yeah.
Not good.
November 9th,
Utrecht,
Netherlands,
the land,
uh, uh, Saks Gate. You better fucking put a picture up of that guy
I will
He's gonna try to come
He looked super Dutch
I wouldn't even know what he looked like
From seven other Dutch dudes
But we have his ID
He gave us his ID and his name
That's the fucking thing
He gave us his info and then just ghosted.
Anyway. So if you don't know the story, Nick broke his sacks.
Whatever. We don't have to do that again.
Oh, you're pissed about it still.
No, I'm not mad about it.
It's just like they don't want to hear about my...
Okay.
So come out to Utrecht and if you want to...
It's during... I mean, I know a lot of Americans...
Okay, here's what happens.
I know a lot of Americans
are in Europe for that
because Goose is in town
and Goose is on tour and Billy Strings
is on tour. So Americans
if you want to have an extra couple days
if you got nothing to do, come on out.
November 9th, Utrecht, Netherlands
November 10th, Bomberg
Bomberg is always fun, right Nick?
That was my favorite city I think.
That's almost sold out.
Or Utrecht. Bomberg is almost sold, right, Nick? That was my favorite city, I think. That's almost sold out. Or Utrecht.
Yeah, Bomberg's almost sold out in the 10.
Same venue?
Same venue.
It's a cool venue.
Live club's great.
So if there's Americans out there, you want to go down to southern Germany
because we're playing with Goose on the 11th in Lubbock, Germany.
Goose and us.
Oh, that festival.
The dollar's strong, guys, right now. Goose and us. Oh, that festival. The Dollar Strong guys right now.
Go to Europe.
Yeah.
So, yeah.
Rolling Stone Beach Festival
in Lubeck.
It's really cool.
Rolling Stone puts on this festival
in Germany.
And they put on all these bands
that they think are the next
up-and-coming bands.
And I'm thankful that they
asked Goose and I to do it.
Are you going to mention that you're above them
on the flyer? And we're on top
of the flyer. Wow.
I love you, Goose.
They seem really mad about it. Give me this win.
Give me this win. Frasco,
top of Germany. This is my country.
They seem like they're super
worried about it.
We sold out two nights at Red Rocks last month.
Do you think being a Jew in Germany during all what's going on right now,
do you think that's as bad as like going to the Middle East?
No, because they are allies now.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But there's still Nazis out there.
Nazis in fucking everywhere.
You're right.
Okay.
I was a little nervous about that.
Well, you're only one way to find out.
Well, good luck.
Maybe wear a hat.
And then next, the following week,
November 14th,
Harlem,
Netherlands.
We're only doing two nights.
Oh, wow.
This tour is easy.
It's like we're only doing
Netherlands and Germany.
Those are the best ones,
I thought.
Harlem,
Netherlands.
That show's almost
sold out as well.
Harlem?
Harlem.
Like the same spelling?
Yeah.
That's where,
they're Dutch.
I forgot about that.
New York's like super Dutch.
Then we're going back to Appledorn.
You never went to Appledorn.
That tour is going to be fun.
Appledorn, they're fucking crazy Dutch people
because they're like in the middle of the Netherlands.
And the actual Holland, like the actual
the marsh. It's fun as fuck.
So the 15th.
And then I'm going to Japan for
eight days. For what?
I'm trying to be a good uncle.
So I'm taking my niece and nephew to Japan.
Just you and them?
Yeah.
And maybe my sister.
And my sister's going too.
You might want to have your sister around.
Okay.
Yeah.
But it's like, this is our time to bond.
I don't know if it just should be Andy and his...
Yeah, that's not...
I mean, no offense.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You don't want to do that.
No, no, no.
Yeah.
I wouldn't do...
I'm also bringing Taylor Garrigan
from Home Team Barbecue.
So I'm going to go hang out with the kids
during the day and then I want to go do the
fucking blackout
Japanese fucking bar scene.
Japan seems amazing. It's going to be awesome.
So me and Taylor are going to go.
I went with the band
and it was a lot of fun, but now
I get to do all the kids stuff too.
I go to Disneyland.
What's Home Team Barbecue?
It's the biggest barbecue restaurant in Charleston.
He won Chopped.
I don't watch any of that stuff.
The top chef.
So he's a badass.
He's a fucking badass.
So we're going to do a Japanese dinner.
He probably knows all this shit too.
Yeah, we're going to go learn how to cook rice.
Oh, it's over Thanksgiving.
Yeah.
Okay.
So that'll be fun.
And then I'm back.
And then we start our fucking December tour.
So I'm on tour for two and a half months, Nick.
That's what you like.
I know, but after two weeks, you're like, you missed me.
I know.
I was ready to do this again.
I know.
I like doing this.
It's like fun.
I know.
I was just thinking.
I always think about you like.
You need me to tell you you're a little bitch sometimes.
Yeah, that's true.
People are getting more sycophantic with you, I'm noticing.
What?
Do you know what a sycophant is?
It's like a fan that's a little too invested.
They won't...
Let's say
a Taylor Swift fan is a sycophant.
If you make fun of them
in any way, they automatically defend you.
Even if you're right. I'm noticing that more
when I get after you in the comments
a little bit. Even if I'm on point,
I'll get someone to be like...
But it's cool. It's good for you.
My fans, dude. It's nice.
Sycophants. It's like a cult thing.
I really felt like our fans are becoming more
diehard. This fall tour was wild.
Yeah, they're more indie.
This is
actually a compliment. I'm really bad at it.
Now they're coming because they're into indie frasco.
I think two years ago they were coming because they heard
it was an amazing party.
Now people know the words and shit, right?
I'm going to cry.
Okay, good.
Yes!
Sometimes I try to compliment you.
I love our fans. Sometimes I try to compliment you and you think I'm insulting you. No, no, no. I! Well, sometimes people are like, sometimes I try to compliment you. This is awesome. I love our fans.
Sometimes I try to compliment you
and you think I'm insulting you.
No, no, no.
I know what you're complimenting me.
Like, people used to go,
which is good.
I mean, they heard it was a good party
and they're like,
let's check this out.
And then they liked it.
So now, like, people are like,
I feel like they know the words.
Yeah.
Which is cool.
Nick,
I've really missed you.
Yeah.
All I had to do was say one nice thing.
I fucking called you a say one nice thing.
I fucking called you a fucking for two hours.
And then I'm like,
you're getting a little more famous.
You're like,
I will suck you.
Do you want some,
can I give you two grand?
Am I going to get paid for the cruise now?
You can bleep out me saying.
Okay.
I don't really care if you do though
No, I will
It's kind of funny in that moment
Should we talk about our sponsors a little bit?
Please
Dialed in gummies
We love them
I just had
I finally got home
Because I
I ran out of them
And I always try to ask Keith for
Like them to ship them to me
He's like nope
It's illegal it's illegal.
They can't, it's illegal.
It's illegal.
Dowling's very good at not breaking the federal law.
So I've been eating these kind of trash edible gummies.
Ew.
And I didn't realize, and I've realized how good Dowling gummies were after I was putting
trash edibles in me.
Really?
You noticed a huge difference?
Oh, yeah.
I haven't gone back to even do a control experiment.
I felt the major difference.
I felt real more cracky on the other stuff.
Yeah, it makes sense.
Because like, I don't know, something in the rosin in these.
Yeah, they're not.
They have solvents in them.
Solvents.
Chemicals.
Yeah, it's nice.
So get yourself some dilating gummies if you're in the Colorado area.
Yeah, exactly.
They still taste like, you know, tree.
Yeah.
Dilating gummies actually taste like a nice gummy. Yeah. So grab yourself some dilating. Damn, exactly. They still taste like, you know, tree. Yeah. Dollar gummies actually
taste like a nice gummy.
Yeah.
So grab yourself some dollar.
Damn, that was a good pitch.
That was a genuine pitch.
I like them.
I eat them all the time.
They're my favorite food.
I got to hit Keith with...
My favorite food is dollar gummies.
But I do love it.
Yeah.
So if you want to get some,
if you're in the Denver area,
this is like,
I think this is the perfect time
to come to Denver
To be honest
Because it's kind of
Best weather, the leaves are changing
My house looks fucking beautiful right now
I'm so excited
I love this time of year
Yeah, it's the best
And it's like little bricks, you can wear a little jacket
It's the best concert for this time of year, kind of
Yeah, everyone comes to Denver in October, November
So, yeah
Get yourselves, go ahead, come at Denver.
Airbnb in my house, if you want.
December is wide open, people.
Really?
Why?
It's still a month or two away.
Yeah, normally I just get bookings
like three months in advance.
Now everyone's like booking one month in advance.
Uh-oh.
The economy's dying.
Or the economy's getting better,
so they're waiting longer
because they don't care about it being cheaper.
No, I think it's dying.
You're probably the same price no matter how far it is.
I see that with ticket sales, too.
I thought ticket sales were better.
They're doing good, but I look at my other peers' shows
sometimes and like,
don't even say it. I know what you're going to say.
What are you going to say?
I like when you use words. This is funny.
You nailed it that time.
You stuck the landing on Piers.
Anyway, go to your thing.
And I think everyone's struggling with ticket sales.
Oh.
Because I think there's like the Taylor Swift, the Zach Bryans, the Billy Strings.
They charge so much for their tickets.
I know, you fuckers.
And that they're not going to pay $20, $30 during the week.
To be fair, it's not all them.
It's also the companies putting on the shows.
And the ticket fees.
Ticket fees are insane.
Yeah, it's like a $30 ticket is really a $50 ticket.
If you're lucky.
I think it's like $30 sometimes.
And it's all like the...
What's the fee for?
What does it go to? I don't understand.
I got a conspiracy.
Speak your truth. I got a conspiracy. Speak your truth.
I love a good
conspiracy.
I don't know. I don't want to assume, but I think
this is how the promoters make their extra
dokes. They can't make any back-end
off shows anymore because
the agents are just
hammering to get the best
deal. I feel like they make
money now off of the ticket
fees.
$14 on 20,000 tickets?
They're probably not going to get 14.
They'll probably get 7.
Because they've got to split it with whoever.
LN or AEG or whatever.
Or they split it with the ticket fee company.
Right, that's what I'm saying.
There's too many fucking people.
Too many middlemen.
We need a clean house.
I have this account. I'm not a communist, but I fucked up my account.
Oh, really?
Go with what you're saying. I'll tell you.
There's just too many companies out there that are just
creating a product that isn't necessary.
You know what I mean?
It's just too many cooks in the kitchen, basically.
I agree.
This is one thing I fucking hate about the music industry.
Everyone's taking a little cut.
Yep.
A little cut.
A little cut.
A little cut.
Everyone's getting their cut before the band even sees any fucking money.
Why is everything off the gross?
I don't agree.
I agree with you too.
Why is it off the gross?
Almost nothing.
I don't know.
I mean, I worked in sales for 10 years before I got into like being a full-time musician.
Everybody else commissions you off profit margin because that's the value you actually create.
Why the gross?
They could...
You know what I mean?
Yeah, I agree.
Because their job is to get you as much...
It's like a personal injury lawyer.
Yeah.
A personal injury lawyer doesn't get paid unless you get...
They only get paid off the money you make on top of your bills.
Right.
Your medical bills.
Why isn't
everyone else like that?
Why do they get 15% of your bills?
Yeah. That's fucked up.
We spent
$14,000 on hotels in two weeks.
But whoever
still gets 15%. They still get
15%. I'm not knocking
Brian here. It's industry standard.
I'm not either. They deserve the money.
It's not as bad as
managers.
That's the manager.
If we're business partners,
we should be taking
the net.
It's like the merch fees thing.
Why do you get 30% of the gross
in merch fees?
Live Nation or whoever.
They did get rid of it at some venues, but not really.
I do have to say thank you to Live Nation for giving us
an extra fucking four grand.
Yeah.
Everyone's bitching about it.
You know, it's all...
It's probably just a tax write-off
or something. I don't know. But who cares?
Who cares? Just get the money.
They're giving it to you.
Why are you bitching about it?
You've been bitching about it.
Yeah, I get people's arguments.
It's like, well, for once, they're being shady or whatever you say,
but at least you're getting money.
I don't know.
Usually, you don't get money when they're doing stuff.
I can't complain.
They gave us $2,000 of gas cards.
Just take it.
Yeah.
Shout out to La Venetia.
You can be mad.
Just take it. I don't know. Who caresish. You can be mad. Just take it.
I don't know.
Who cares?
No one's saying
they're like UNICEF now.
Yeah, I'm not saying
like they're still
a big business.
Are they still taking
the ticket fees
that we're bitching about?
Yes, they are.
They're not Habitat
for Humanity.
But I'm going to take a win
when I see a win.
Yeah.
Let's go.
They're not Habitat
for Humanity, people.
But yeah, I mean,
they're still whatever.
It's a big giant. Like the CEO made $137 million last year or something.
Yeah.
Like bands are just like eating ramen out of their fist.
Yeah.
Especially now the bands aren't making shit.
Yeah.
Sucks.
Everybody should just.
Everyone thinks we're all rich.
Everyone, you know, it's like we do good in merch, but like you don't think the merch
money helps pay for this whole fucking thing?
Ernie's expensive.
Ernie's expensive.
Especially me.
I'm just kidding.
Let's line up fucking DraftKings, baby.
Let's make that money.
All alone.
50 minutes.
I went to my sister's wedding in Canada.
Really?
It was pretty fun.
It was nice? It was nice?
It was in Banff
You ever been there?
No
It's just Colorado, Canada
Oh, cool
It's just like straight up by Calgary
Calgary kind of rules
Yeah, but you said
You said you were dreading it
Because you didn't want to see your family
I mean, I just like
It was like three days
And we're all in the same Airbnb
Me and my mom and my sister
It's just a lot
Yeah
My mom's so slow
Does she judge you?
No
Why don't you like them?
I like them
You said you don't
No, I like them
I just don't want to be around them for three straight days
Yeah, it's a little annoying
You know what I'm saying?
They're all cool people
They're all pretty chill
My family's very like how I am kind of
Right
It's very
Not a lot of
My sister's girlfriend was there
And she was like
You're all the same
You're all just like
You know
I don't know how to describe it
Because you can't describe yourself You know what I mean? Just like Not excited Just like, you're all the same. You're all just like, you know, I don't know how to describe it because you can't describe yourself.
You know what I mean?
Just like.
Not excited.
Just like, yeah, boring, a little stiff.
Yeah, boring and stiff.
That's me.
No, you got, I mean, yeah, sometimes.
Me, I'm super boring.
That's what they say about me.
That's why people listen to me talk for an hour.
You got a point.
No, we just don't get excited
about shit. Really? It takes a lot to
excite us British people. Why?
Well, we've already conquered the world.
No, you didn't.
I guess. The sun never
sets on that empire.
So, I guess once you've conquered the entire world,
not that much impresses you anymore.
You know who else tried to conquer the world?
Volume.com.
The British of the live streams.
Volume is coming.
Volume is coming.
The volume is coming.

they're fun. We're working on a bunch of new breakouts right now. Yeah, we're trying to...
They gave us the go-ahead to
start pumping out
all these more breakouts. So I'm like, thank you, volume.com.
But if you're a content creator,
this is the type of team you're going to have with you.
The best team in the live stream
business. Head to volume.com
slash creator to get to know them

stuff on there. It's just going to help
people. Live streams help. They really do.
Have you done a live band show on there lately?
I did a live. Yeah, we did two of them so far.
Where?
New Orleans and something else.
It's great.
I look at my nugs.net numbers too.
People listen to live shows.
People listen to live streaming.
They don't go to them.
They don't go to them.
They just said,
we'll just wait till Nugs gets on it.
Maybe volume.com will have the live show.
I'll get the flack.
You'll watch.
You're going to watch the show
and then you're going to re-watch it On volume.com
They have a ton of shows
Stockpiled
They got some great podcasts
They got that dude from the Foo Fighters
Has a podcast
It's really good
Shipley?
I don't know
He teaches guitar riffs
The guy with the gray hair?
I don't know
Yeah
The guitar player?
Yeah, the guitar player
That's kind of cool
He's cool as fuck
I watched a couple episodes of those
And he rips.
I watched their Austin City Limits concert like two weeks ago.
It was pretty.
Dave Grohl's stage presence is so interesting.
It's almost like he's doing like a small bar, but it works for 60,000 people.
Yeah, he is the great.
He's a great front man.
He's insane at it.
It's so likable and normal.
It's a little corny, but you need to be corny for 60,000 people. We're not doing Louis C.K. jokes up here. You know what I mean? All right, true. It's so likable and normal. And it's a little corny, but you need to be corny for 60,000 people.
We're not doing Louis C.K. jokes up here.
You know what I mean?
True.
It's cool.
So head to volume.com.
Watch all this great content.
And watch us.
And Nick's looking hot today.
The next move for you, I think, is like a live concert special almost.
Yeah, like talking head style.
Yeah.
I've been talking with a couple people.
I want to do a real big production.
Like how comedians do a stand-up special.
You film like five,
then you kind of splice them together
and edit it down.
Wouldn't be that hard to make, I feel like.
Yeah, I have this idea
that I want to kind of like
do like a Stop Making Sense style film.
But I want to do it in a...
I don't want to ruin the story.
So it's like a documentary
with like live concert footage?
No, just live concert.
I don't think I've seen that movie, actually.
And I have an idea how it could be filmed.
What's cool about that film is a live concert film.
I haven't seen it.
Close-up cameras.
Oh, they're like on stage?
No, they have a guy on stage just getting close
and doing these cool tight sweeps.
So it kind of feels like a tornado. He's like in the shit.
He's in the shit. And that's what I think
I got an idea that I think we could do
something really spectacular. Everybody thinks they might be
coming back. They are.
Oh. Well, they're doing like
Colbert. Well, they're putting
the movie out again. It's all planned.
They probably have a tour they're about to announce.
I never really got it. Honestly, I never really got
too much into them.
Nothing is...
I don't know a lot about them.
Everything is planned now.
That's why...
What about Taylor Swift dating Travis Kelsey?
Ooh, I feel like it's a little planned, but I love it.
I think they're a very good couple, actually.
I do, too.
I love, dude.
I love the Kelsies.
I just like that she's finally dating someone that's taller than her.
I guarantee you Travis just got a fucking hog on him.
Just a dong.
He's too confident to not have this fucking horse leg of a cock.
How can you not be confident if you're him?
He's handsome.
He's 6'5".
He's top three tight end of all time probably.
Do you think Taylor Swift gets pissed when she has to go to his $900,000 apartment in Kansas City after they make love.
Is that what he has?
I don't know, but it's probably not a billion-dollar house.
I think he bought your penthouse when you moved here.
He probably has like four houses.
He makes a lot of money, man.
Yeah.
He's like at the top end of sports.
Yeah, yeah.
But I do love the Kelsies.
I love his brother, too.
He rules.
He's the greatest.
He's actually arguably cooler. Yeah, and his wife is cool, love his brother, too. He rules. He's the greatest. He's actually
arguably cooler. Yeah, and his wife
is cool and his kids are cool.
I keep listening to...
I keep on going back to
Philly. I keep listening to the
Philadelphia doing the Christmas record.
All the linemen of Philadelphia
did the Christmas record.
I know, but I love
Kelsey in that
He's just so
He's such a great dude
I want to try to get him on the podcast
He plays saxophone
Really?
Barry Sax
Yeah
So I like
So when it comes down to it
I like the Taylor
You should have him come sit in
A lot more hot beautiful women
Want to watch football now
Can't argue that
So I like it
I like Taylor Swift
I don't know
I think she's cool, dude.
People who don't like
Taylor Swift are kind of weird.
It's like,
what'd she ever do?
I like hard workers.
She fucking works hard.
She's arguably
the greatest CEO
in the history
of the music business.
For sure.
She's re-recording
all the records
that that asshole
was stole from her.
Scooter B?
Selling some,
I mean,
and she loves her fans.
She treats her fans really well. Yeah, I'm in on the Swift. She's selling some. I mean, and she like loves her fans. She treats her fans
really well. Yeah, I'm in on the Swift.
She doesn't really ever do anything
embarrassing or stupid. Yeah, I'm in on
Swift. The only thing people make fun of her is like
dating guys in her 20s.
Who cares? What the fuck?
It's like, let's see your
Why are people so fucking jealous of
when people just like date?
Because they're not getting laid. Because they're not getting laid.
They're either not getting laid or they're married and they want to be free again.
Get out of my boy's pockets.
Yeah.
Thank you.
What he said.
We're going to have a great week.
This is a fun episode.
I like it.
It's so much better when we don't have a stupid guest, right?
I'm just kidding.
Bing bong. Hey, Bo, come up. Let me hear Bo. I want to talk to Bo for a second. Go to the Bo part. It's so much better when we don't have a stupid guest, right? I'm just kidding.
Hey, Bo, come up.
Let me hear Bo.
I want to talk to Bo for a second.
Hey, Bo, give it up for Bo Bilinski.
Our TM.
Got a couple days of sleep.
Oh, I'm feeling good.
Yeah?
You got a couple days.
How was the tour for you?
It was good.
I thought it was a really good tour, honestly. The cool, cool guys made it easy.
Chris is fucking awesome, dude. He made
my life so easy. I don't know.
I just thought it was great. Chris is the trumpet
player. Chris Browers. And he's TM
and driving. He's like a workhorse
in it. Yeah.
No, I thought it was a good tour, man. Any things we could
do to improve the next tour?
Get a bandwagon.
You think it's time?
I don't know. I think we're there.
It's going to make a lot of difference,
I think, personally.
I like it. I want to do it. We should do the bandwagon.
At least try it.
For this run?
It's going to be a couple thousand dollars more. Let's go over it after this.
I can rent the Sprinter out.
We're also talking, too.
It's not going to be hard to get a driver
Like Gonzo or somebody
It's all night drives though
So who's going to drive at night?
Gonzo?
We'd have to get a driver
They don't have anyone?
I was talking to Nick about this
McDaniels
He was saying that they do have a full list of drivers
That you can pick from
But they're usually going to be more expensive
because they all have CDLs or whatever,
and they come recommended.
You know you're getting a pro.
Yeah.
Or we just get our own guy.
Yeah, it depends on how much you charge the guy.
He said they've done both.
How much more is it?
Depends on the driver.
If we do that Those guys
Need showers
Or they become
Kind of bitchy
Like when they
Don't shower and shit
If we buy
If we get a bandwagon
I'm not getting a hotel
We were talking about
Like Planet Fitness
Yeah
Maybe they park it
Maybe we park it
In a Planet Fitness
Then we could all go shower
Fucking get a workout in
It'd be tight.
A lot of venues have showers.
No,
they're shitty.
It's hit or miss.
Yeah.
And then either way,
even if it's one,
still got eight guys that need to shower.
Right.
Yeah.
All right.
Growing pains.
It's good to have growing pains though.
Yeah.
But everything else was good.
All that,
all the fans,
everything.
You said this was the best.
I thought so.
Cool.
Numerous times.
Cool.
I don't know.
Yeah.
It was killer.
All the shows were great.
Fucking broke merch records.
Yeah, man.
Are you sad that you're not with your boyfriend, Skippy?
They're in love.
You're in love.
It's good.
We need a little time apart.
Anyways, you know what I'm saying?
Is Jason jealous of your love?
No, because... Our sound man. You definitely like him more than Jason.
Who do you like more, Jason? Whoa, whoa,
whoa. Now you're starting to struggle.
This is what he comes. After an hour, he sucks.
He starts putting his fingers
into the fucking, into the computer
wires. Last ten minutes, Nick.
But you know what? No. The two of them
have their own gay little thing
going on on too.
I try not to get jealous of that.
This is a tribe factor?
Damn, this is getting real weird.
He knows not to get jealous of me and Jason.
Oh my God. Wow.
Dude, those crew pictures.
I thought the crew pictures came out awesome.
I thought so too.
We're making a calendar.
What's Skippy doing?
Merch.
Skippy does merch.
He's real good at merch.
Also kind of just like helps me with whatever I need.
He sells the shit out of merch.
And like, it's nice to have a guy, you know, rapping.
I like his raps.
Yeah.
I forgot about that.
Yeah.
All right, Bo.
Thanks so much for the update.
Yeah, boys.
You think if the Bills don't beat the Patriots this weekend.
Dude, they have to. Like. Yeah. Theyills don't beat the Patriots this weekend,
they're going to beat the shit out of them.
1-4?
Damn, I'm excited, boys. This is a podcast trip.
This is going to be fun.
Should we start placing bets?
Are you sad Skippy's not going?
No.
The Boston fans are being mean to me.
All right, guys.
All right, go get out.
Go out there.
Go do the Lord's work.
We'll finish this up right now with Nick and I.
But thank you.
Give it up for Bo Polinsky.
Unbelievable.
Our guy.
Our show pony.
Working hard.
He works hard for the money.
Yeah, sounds like him.
It sounds like he's moving on from you
To more like a Skippy kind of thing
Hey, don't calm it down
I'm just telling you how the vibe I'm getting
I'm just being objective
It seems like he likes Skippy more than you
That's fine, I mean, he sees me all the time
He sees Skippy, you know
I get it
Twice a year
He says he's going to fly out and visit him
When we were driving back, he's like, you know, one of these days, I'm going to be the
tour manager.
Oh, my God.
Here we go.
Ooh.
Wait a second.
This is like a...
It's like a Shakespearean tragedy.
E to Brute.
Yeah, he's going to kill you and take your job.
I'm like Julius Caesar, and my best friend is going to stab me from the back, and I look
back.
I'm like, E2 bro day.
His wife told him not to go.
That's the smartest thing you've ever said in this whole
podcast.
Referencing Shakespeare.
Thank you.
His wife told him not to go. You should listen to your wife.
Do you have any motivation
for the people? I think I got something.
I got something.
I ain't no award for this shit. All the shit I got something. I got something. I like, like, ain't no award for this shit.
This is...
We got awards.
Yo, guys.
I deserve a gold medal.
Olympics.
Let go!
Silver award of the Signal Awards.
You're looking at a fucking guy
and a group of people who
won a trophy.
We won the award. It was a co-hosting award. I know. Aren't you proud of people who won a trophy. Actually, we won the award. It was
co-hosting award. I know. Aren't you proud of us, though?
Yeah. We got nominated.
Fuck you, Game of Thrones. Yeah, fuck you, Game of Thrones.
Stupid ass.
By the way, the side note, that's the song
Nick listens
to while he pumps himself
up with the mirror
for trivia. No, I play it on the PA
to open the show. I know, but I know you're like pumping yourself like,
and the question is.
No, I was...
Just in the mirror, just like, and the question is.
You guys...
And the question is.
You and Jeremy walked up yesterday and you're like,
thought I was like getting all ready.
I was like, no, I'm just watching TikTok.
I'm like, we saw you from afar.
I'm like, I always tell Jeremy,
and that's that moment where Dewey Cox...
Exactly.
...talks about his whole life inside the mirror. Then you walk up and it's just like where Dewey Cox talks about his whole life
inside the mirror. Then you walk up and it's just like
me watching a TikTok.
All right. We love you.
We love you, America.
Stay strong, all the people
of Palestine and Israel.
This is all fucked up.
I don't want anyone to die.
I don't want anyone to fucking die. So stop it.
And that's coming from a Jew. So stop it. Yep. You know, and that's coming from a Jew.
So stop it.
Nobody kill anybody.
Come on.
That's my stance.
And I think it's a pretty good stance.
Let's talk to each other.
Let's communicate.
It's Halloween, though.
It is Halloween.
And next week, we got Luke from the special talking Halloween movies.
Favorite Halloween movies.
Talking about a bunch of stuff.
And I think we got Mike Get, the ghost legend
himself, to do a medium
at my house. Michael Menert.
Michael Menert from Pretty Lights.
He's going to tell ghost stories. He's going to feel
there's a ghost in here. He knows that.
Even if he doesn't, he'll say he does and he'll tell a great
story. I'm just kidding. He rules.
It's going to be great. Next week's going to be great. And we'll get to talk about Pretty Lights
coming back a little bit. Yeah, it'll be fun.
If you guys are Pretty Lights fans, tune in.
Have a great week.
Are you ready?
We're going to have so much fun, Nick.
You, me, and Beau.
Just going to be the two greatest.

Everyone listening to this episode.
Everyone who's been listening all week.
And all year.
We fucking love you, baby.
You're sick.
It's going to be the best one yet.
I can't do this.
I can't do that.
That's more you.
Yeah, that's more you.
I'm afraid. That's more you. Yeah, that's more you.
All right, guys.
Love you.
Stay safe out there.
That's a hard one.
That one I think is so hard.
Hallelujah.
Hallelujah.
He sounds like Nigel Hall a little bit at the end there.
Yeah, he did.
I love you.
And Nick does too sometimes.
Sometimes he loves.
Go to my website and buy my wares.
You did say you hate him a lot, so that's why.
It's just not my thing.
Nope.
That's not what you said before we started recording.
I said I don't like it, but that doesn't mean I don't like it for you.
All right, bye.
