Gang, we couldn't be more excited to have our incredibly special guys.
Here with this today for the first time.
Yes.
He is a very funny, very successful stand-up comedian podcast producer and let's
Let's just say this.
You take a lot of heat,
but you are the most successful comedy podcast producer ever.
Thanks.
Right?
Yeah.
Joe Rogan Experience killed Tony.
You started Desquad Network.
And not to throw you in a hot seat quickly,
but I have a number written down here.
I would like to,
you don't have to say anything.
Just tell me if I'm around the ballpark,
what you got sitting in the bank?
More or less.
Uh,
eventually.
Can I see it?
But we're about there.
After this weekend.
Yeah, eventually.
You're a successful man.
Thanks.
A little bit of a creep out here.
You like that anime stuff.
Oh, come on.
That's my character.
Ente porn or whatever it's called.
He likes an octopus tentacle.
I don't know what you're going to do.
Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Brian Redmond!
Long time coming, my friend.
Oh, my God.
I've been wanting to do this for so long.
We had it in the books once or twice in Austin, and we had to schedule a schedule conference.
I'm glad you're here, though.
Yes.
Do it at the house.
Do it in the studio.
Yeah.
Come by Potties.
Yes.
You got a show over there at Madison Square Garden.
Yeah, a couple there.
Doing two at the Garden.
Woo!
That's great.
I've been to the garden once.
Rangers game.
Oh, wait.
We went and saw the first kill Tony over it.
He did.
It was very cool.
And that was a very eye-opening experience to us.
Yeah.
We will never be there.
But when you guys ran that, you ran the, you know, the through the years kind of thing
and starting in that small room at the comedy store, 12 years ago or 13 years ago at this point,
to the fucking selling out the garden.
Yeah, it's very crazy.
It's very crazy.
Happy for you.
You know we love you.
Yes.
Let's get into this.
That being said, I mean, you know, the facts are, I think the facts in this case.
I feel like we should be wearing the stuff that you wear when you go to a Gallagher show.
The McDonald's Cafe coffee.
With a paper stroll, though.
That's what they screw you on that.
Oh, is that all they do?
Yeah, and they got that, they got that heavy set.
Lady working there.
No, they have that high intensity sprite over there.
It eats through that thing like it's sulfuric acid.
So you got that.
guys do the paper straws here in New York? No. I mean, it's just McDonald's? We have the
original yellow striped ones in Texas, you know, the seal skin. Yeah. That's also stuck in the 80s.
Yeah. Well, if that's where styrofoam cops live, I was going to say skyscrapers made a styrofoam down there.
What, uh, what, what, how, is that all you got? That's light and sweet.
Oh, I mean, I mean, I, you know, when I'm in New York, I have to get you guys have so many
great coffee shops, but I saw McDonald's. Like, fuck. Is that your coffee every day?
No, no, this, I make my own coffees, but this is like...
Pretty clear.
This is like a baby food coffee, though, you know, where I don't want the fancy stuff.
Sometimes I just want, like, the chocolate milk for Brian.
Yeah.
What's the order?
Just at default, you know, just...
Ice coffee.
It has all the sugar.
It's already comes preloaded.
Their defaults got heavy cereal.
You're buying pre-rolls, dude.
They ask you, when...
I've gotten coffee for McDonald's, I'm like, you don't want those vanilla syrup or nothing?
They, like, they can't understand it.
Yeah, yeah.
No, it's crazy.
Oh, okay.
McDonald's...
Just getting a beverage.
As we all know, trash.
Yeah, that's a tough look, man.
Brian, give us the backstory.
You're a cafe?
It's not a cafe.
There's a homeless guy jerking off in there.
Remember they tried to kick down?
You're going to be hanging out there, working on a screenplay.
Ohio.
Yeah.
So, born in Columbus, Ohio.
The nice part.
Yeah, the nice part.
You were spending time at Cleveland?
No, Cleveland used to be the best, though.
We used to go, wow, Cleveland is where it's where it's.
cool and everything's but now you know Detroit kind of leaked on to Cleveland and it's scary
it's a little bit Cleveland got a little Detroitie yeah they succeeded yeah it's whatever
Detroit does it's contagious yeah but no very small hometown like you know and then were you
in the city prop or outside no we're in the burbs in the burbs uh Worthington Dublin which is like
you know like high end uh classy I guess uh then our parents my parents got a divorce which
was like one of the first divorces in Cleveland
Columbus, Ohio.
What?
Yeah.
We,
I feel like I've heard you say that before,
which is like my mother was stoned.
Yeah,
how old are you 700 years old?
That's heresy!
I was burned as a witch.
Yeah, so, like, it was literally like,
like no one got divorces at this time.
How old were you at the time?
Third grade, whatever that was.
Eight.
Seven, eight.
That's not really fuck you up.
Yeah, and I'm 52, so this was like early 80s, I think.
Woo!
We!
It's probably you're not a stripper.
Let's go.
Columbus, divorce, 80s?
Yeah.
That's got porn written all over it.
See my Oaf guys.
No, and like,
they didn't even have apartment complexes back then.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
This is we home on the range?
What are you talking?
No one's the apartment complexes?
Yes, they, I remember they built this, like, their first apartment complex.
And I remember on the news, everyone's like, this is what an apartment is.
Everybody's standing there.
This ain't going to ways.
This is where single dads.
Yeah.
Bang flight attendants.
Because divorces were coming out.
We're like starting.
So when I got a divorce.
my teacher's like, I think it's going to mess him up,
so we better hold him back is what they told me.
Really?
Yeah.
But that's what they told you.
That's what they told me.
I remember making fun of you this on Kill Tony, actually.
I think so.
This all just came back.
I think you eating erasers in the back of the class,
but I'm doing it too.
Huff and markers.
So, yeah, I...
All right, so you got held back in third grade.
Third grade.
So you're an only child?
No, I have a younger sister.
No shit.
And so we moved to one of that new apartment complex.
With your mom or your dad?
My mom.
Okay.
My dad.
found out he was no one that had all the money
engineering stuff my mom
wasn't a working mom
she was a stay-at-home mom or so
got a divorce got a divorce stand-up
apartment she got a job working
as an executive secretary for
Dave Thomas of Wendy's
get the fuck out of here yeah
actual Dave Thomas I got pictures of him
dressed up as Santa Claus and I'm a kid
sitting on his lap are you fucking kidding me
red man I was the show's over
you're cleanest famous guy you ever met
Dave Thomas that guy
Because that's one of the questions.
The most famous person you met as a kid,
it's got to be Dave Todd.
Come on.
Unless you're hanging out with the hamburger on the weekends.
Actually, it's not because the Merfield Golf Tournament was in Columbus, Ohio.
And so I met Bob Hope, was one of the first people I met.
Sean Connery.
John Connery's a golfer?
Yeah, I know.
Yeah, he's Scottish.
John Daly.
I met John Daly back in the day, back a few times.
You met Bob Hope.
Bob Hope stepped on my foot and goes, hey, kid, I'm sorry.
And he signed.
Show business
I said something racist
I went away
Wait
Hold on a second
Dude we are
We're first of all
We're moving on a million miles an hour
I got questions
Yeah
What happened to the house
What does Dave Thomas smell like
Onions it's weird
Yeah did your dad stay at the house
Dad still has that house
What the what?
Yeah
Dad still stays at the house
But what's weird is now looking back
I never asked why did you get divorced
I never heard like I don't give
I don't care
But looking back I just thought it was weird
that, you know, right when my parents got divorced, my mom immediately had a job as an executive secretary for Dave Thomas.
So I'm like, wait, did my mom cheat on my dad with Dave Thomas?
Am I Dave Thomas's kid?
Well, typically, because the dad, you should sit on a gold mine.
I know.
You could.
Did you ever meet Wendy?
Huh?
Did you ever meet Wendy?
I think I did back.
Because it used to be a pretty tight company.
Like, we used to go to camp, like Wendy's camp, and, you know, all the kids that worked for Wendy's.
We all got shipped off to like summer camp together.
Wait, did you work at Wendy's too?
No, I never worked at Wendy.
The kids are the parents like Scientology.
Everyone's got to work there.
My mom used to scrupping the floors.
My mom used always have to do these like weird things for Dave.
Anal.
Like no, like carry like briefcases in small airplanes and go to like Chicago in Atlanta.
Probably like the chili recipe.
It was something like that.
And I just remember as a kid I would sit in the back.
It was like one of those like propeller.
You were on the plane?
Yeah.
My mom brought me to this.
I don't know where my sister was.
This is like how they whacked fucking.
Yeah, this is crazy.
I know.
And my mom would buy me like Garfield books.
Just like, don't look out the window because it's just like a small tiny plane.
Oh, Sessna or whatever.
Yeah, yeah, going, dropping off briefcases and getting back on the plane and going back to.
What?
Yeah, it was weird shit.
Were they ever chained or like handcuffed door?
No, it was.
But I remember it was like this big like leather briefcase thing that she had to drop off to see people would meet at the airport.
They would get back on.
That was full of cats.
don't know but probably also too
if you're Dave Tom from like a business
if you got to get something somewhere quick
it's like same day these are like legal
documents that need to be signed or whatever
yeah okay you're giving them the red band
obviously
it was it was it was
just got ketchup packets taped to his chest
but the best part they had the test kitchen
so as a kid I would go to see
my mom at work are you trying to you're trying to
fucking make my best friend jealous
here is that we're trying to talk about
test kitchen yeah we're the same age
You're talking about G.I. Joe, Transformers outside.
You had a fucking Wendy's test kitchen to that child?
Like 50-year-old, yeah.
Yeah, and then so they would have like a window
and you choose things that it's not released at
and you tested them.
They also had, you know, every time they had like a party,
they would have like portable frosty machines
that they would bring to parties.
And my mom, like one of my birthdays had the,
she got to bring the frosty machine on my birthday.
That frosty back in the day.
That hit the fucking market like thriller.
Yeah, everybody was freaking out.
Because it's a frosty!
Shakes couldn't compare to a frosty.
You eat it with a spoon, then you drink it, Luke.
You can't do that with a milkshake.
What?
Not those thin ones they do at McDonald's.
That's awesome.
How long did she work there?
Did she then...
She worked there until after, I think, after Dave passed, and then magically just stopped
working at that place.
And then, yeah, worked for red roof ends.
Then she was like a high end...
She worked at the red roof end.
Corporate, no, corporate office.
All right.
Still.
Those people all got hot jobs.
Yeah.
That's a big street.
structure.
Who?
Anybody that were,
anybody that started with those guys that was involved on the ground floor with McDonald's.
Red roof in is a hot job.
From a corporate standpoint,
hey,
I studied hotel restaurant management at a Wyden University.
For three out.
As a lot.
Wow.
Wow.
So your mom ended up doing well.
I'm sorry to cut you.
Yeah,
she ended up doing well.
Then met a,
you know,
my stepdad and now who.
The Burger King.
Yeah.
He owns a huge an architect and owns a big architect firm.
You know,
nice.
So you out of the,
apartment so yeah we got out of the apartment uh and did you ever find out why you guys moved out
yeah because typically like the mom stays with the kids that must have been first divorce
yeah yeah it was oh they changed the laws and it's like because i had to share a bedroom with my
sister growing up it was two years younger than me and we had like the that explains a book the book
or the bookshelves in the middle of the room to separate the rooms you know i respect that it's like a dorm
yeah it was like a dorm that's torture uh wow how long are you guys in that apartment
Ooh, I'd probably say third grade to about fifth grade.
And then I ended up, I ended up moving in with my dad in high school.
So I switched.
Was that like beef with like how I'm going to live with dad type?
It was more just like I can't live with three women or two women.
And place my dad was cooler, had a bigger house.
And so yeah.
How did your sister feel about that?
She loved it, I bet.
Would it have been the same school?
Yeah.
I stayed.
So I live in a different school.
I used to work when I lived at my dad's, but I would drive.
Gotcha.
To my other one.
So you and your sister were still in the same school.
You'd see you on a daily basis.
Yeah, yeah.
Go over to your mom's for dinner, stuff like that.
Right, right.
But at your old man, you could probably have a couple of beers.
Yeah, well, he, yeah, I could sneak into and like late.
Yeah, that's just don't, that's, don't fucking care about a high school kid.
Yeah, right?
How are the grades in school?
No, I, I, uh, I, plead to bed.
No, I, uh, I, uh, slept.
I, I watched Johnny Carson every night and, and David Letterman until, like, three in the morning, right?
And so that's why I, right?
And so that's why I wear hats still to this day,
because I used to just be the guy that would, like, sit there like this
and sleep while, like, in school.
So my grades sucked.
What is an old baseball pitcher?
Yeah, except for art.
Chipmy McGrath, sleeping in the dugout?
Yeah, except for art classes.
All of the art classes, A-plus, like, I took every art class,
but then everything else, like, C's, D's, this barely got in.
Did you take the ASATs or whatever it is out there?
Yeah, I think so, but I don't even remember.
Okay.
I would literally do the thing with the Scantron where you just like, the, you know what?
Ava-cadab.
Like the lottery.
I'll be done in two seconds.
Huh.
What were the vacations like growing up?
Yeah.
Other than hot drops for Dave Thomas.
Was dad doing alimony and child support and all the apartment?
Yeah.
Were you guys comfortable in the apartment?
The apartment was nice because it was brand new.
You know, one of the first apartment.
The first apartment building ever.
Oh, here's something funny.
When Diet Coke came out.
I remember.
Had the first came in.
Wait, Diet Coke came out.
Exactly.
Well, get a year on Diet Coke.
No.
I thought that was like 60-7.
No.
Really?
Really.
This is the first time it's just getting to Columbus.
And he thinks it was like.
Yeah, I'm guessing like 84, 83.
July 8, 8, 1982.
Get to fuck out of here.
So when Diet Coke came out.
Dude, breath in my, he's the smartest person I know.
They used to put...
Definitely most well-connected.
They used to have like a red roof in.
Plastic bag and they had Diet Coke, caffeine-free diet Coke, and Coke.
They put on everybody in the apartment's door handle to advertise.
They get you hooked.
They get you hooked.
These poor bastards's hooked.
It's like when they give out free menthol cigarettes.
I went to every single apartment.
apartment stole those and my mom came home and opened the fridge was just packed of diet
cooking and she's like Brian where'd you get that and she's like cool you know today go get their
I'll tell Dave about it uh but yeah would you have to pay when you go to Wendy's no no no we had
stacks of like meal coupons I actually I have a few of them still you fuck with the salad bar back
then back then it was the best salad bar it was the best and oh some of the best spaghetti I ever had
in my life I swear to God I'll take that to the degree and Wendy's uh because the corporate
but Office was there.
They also had all their off brands,
like sisters,
chicken and biscuits.
Do you know what that is?
That was their version of KFC.
Dave's Cat House?
Yeah, it was KFC,
but it's sisters,
it was Wendy's version of KFC.
Racks,
do you know what Rax is?
That was Wendy's version of Arby's.
Rax actually did pretty well.
There's a couple racks still around
if you wanted to get.
RACC, like,
R-A-X.
R-A-X.
Sisters, let's get their children.
Is that still banging?
No, that went out of business.
Rax.
One piece white meat, $1.79.
Can't stay in business with those prices.
They used to have to sell that so hard and let you know white meat.
Premium white.
I like a thigh.
A thigh, man.
Crispy thigh.
Yeah, so we got all these different versions of restaurants we got to check.
Who owns Wendy's now?
It's still the same company.
Yeah.
Private equity?
Yeah, I think so.
I don't think it's still in the same family.
Did you go to Dave Thomas's funeral?
No, I didn't.
No.
Did your mom?
Probably.
Yeah.
A red dress crying in the back
She dyed her hair red for it
Showing her double double
No, but
Yeah
No college
No, I went to college
Really?
Went to
Community College, Columbus State
Then I started going to Ohio State
But I went to
Get the fuck out of here
Satellite campus
Huh?
You go to the main campus?
Yeah, main campus
You did?
But like literally
Literally
one, whatever, semester, whatever, because I was doing what they called multimedia production
and design, which was the internet just came out, and we don't know what to call this, but we need
people to know how to make websites and stuff.
So I was like the first time they ever offered this class to learn how to make websites.
Really?
And by the time I got to Ohio State, I was already getting offered all these jobs from companies
because I was like one of the few people that knew how to make websites at the time.
So I just quit that and I had like a real child
I still don't Diet Coke's on people's doors
I've said this before but you truly
You're like Forrest Gump of dirtbags
Yeah mom was the executive assistant to fucking Dave Thomas
He's eating in the test kitchen so you saw him on a regular basis
Yeah like all the company picnakes and parties and stuff yeah back then yeah huh yeah
Hey Brian yeah or do you call you ready I don't even like I mean I was young as fudge
But but back then yeah I remember seeing him all especially the Christmas ones
and stuff.
Damn, I loved him.
Yeah, me too.
Yeah, he's great.
Yeah.
Fucking running the company.
He's doing the commercials.
What was the best thing
out of the test kitchen
that you tried?
I don't remember,
but I do remember,
I think it was like,
they had to take a run
at a big mat.
Before it was Baconator.
It was something else.
It was like Big Bacon something.
Oh, you're talking about
the Big Bacon Classic.
Yeah.
That was fantastic.
A little bit different
than the bacon.
Yeah.
And it led us and tomato.
Yeah.
Never mind.
Big bacon.
I didn't say anything.
I love the Big Bacon Crack.
Yeah.
Baconer is pretty good, too.
Yeah, then it became like, I think the Baconator.
Whoa.
Huh.
That's fascinating stuff.
Did you ask you about the vacations?
Oh, vacations.
So I, uh...
Oh, the Baconator is a big bacon class name.
To me, it's like talking to Napoleon.
Wacky wild stuff.
So we always went to, you know, Midwest Florida, which was Myrtle Beach.
Like, you guys probably used to go to Myrtle Beach a lot, I'm guessing.
No?
I never, we know.
never made it that south. We stopped that
it was Jersey and then every now and then
I'll get you guys that you guys are probably huge losers
too right? Well everyone in Ohio would go to Myrtle Beach
because it was like a version of Florida but it was closer
but then uh Florida without all the hustle and bustle
yeah when I was going to Myrtle Beach next weekend
when I moved in with my dad I lived in
like a rich neighborhood and one of my best friends
his parents would take us to cool vacations
because his dad was the president of nationwide insurance.
Whoa.
Still is, I think.
I don't know.
But so he would take us to like Kiwa Island.
What's Keywa Island?
It's like a Gulf Island outside of the Carolinas.
It's so awesome, though.
You ever go to Putten Bay?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Putt in Bay.
I used to go there once a year almost.
Shut up to it.
Brian Redband was the friend that went on vacation with the other.
That's a tough, that's a tough characteristic to have growing up.
Yeah, it was weird.
You probably fit it very well.
It was weird because.
they would have to buy me presents also when they're you know what I mean like when you're
on vacation with your kid you know you'd be like hey honey you went up you're a teddy bear
or whatever yeah so they would have to double buy it with a big lollipop and a fucking propeller
thanks so much mr. Jenkins I'm sure your dad would give the money or something nationwide is
I don't think so dude they pay your airfare and shit they paid yeah they paid everything it was great
she was he was they were like two rich guys you go yeah you get this one I'll get the next one
type thing.
Wow.
Yeah, they were loaded.
Kevin's talking about Warby Paca.
Warby Parker.
Big, big fan.
As you know, I'm a Warby guy.
I know that.
Contacts, eyeglasses.
I'm into it all.
Don't shut up about them.
No, you could do the virtual on the website, try on stuff.
And the good thing that they have that the other places don't have is some places you go
to, they got style.
Prices are out of control.
Some places you go to, they got good pricing.
But the styles are, uh-uh.
You're looking at a seventh grade math teacher.
Whereby Parker has it all.
Do yourself a favor.
Contacts eyeglasses.
sunglasses, go to Warby Parker, get yourself straightened out.
I got to be honest with it, too.
They got the locations.
You go in there to get everything.
Brick and mortar.

You figure out if you take your, everything is done in-house.

doing a corporate. They're like, hey, Dave Thomas, want you to
come in, we're going to give you $50,000. Talk to
these kids. Well, yeah, it's connected with Thomas.
Yeah, we got the Lex Wexner, Victoria's Secret
models. He's a bad guy, right? Who's Lex Wector?
He's on the list. He's
So that's how Epstein
got all of his cash. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Wait, he would come?
Well, he lived there and he built...
At the zoo? No, no. I'm just saying in Columbus.
A freak. But at the mall, you would see him.
all the time and he would have just like five hot women
with him in the mall. It was always so nice.
Was he boys with Dave Thomas? No,
no. I'm just saying that he lived in Columbus also.
Like Columbus is crazy.
Like, the secrets.
The secrets.
Now, what was the name of the high school you went to?
I went to Worthington Kilbourne High School.
Yeah, Worthington Kilbourne, man.
Let's see if he's on the notable alum.
No. No.
He might be on the notable alum of Columbus.
Oh. Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Dave Thomas, Jack Hanna.
That freak he was talking about?
Brian Redmond guys.
Me and young James.
Steen and his crew.
His flunkies.
Jack Hannah could take a week off of work.
Go do that.
No, he's at work.
He's at work. That's where he...
Oh, he was based out of the Columbus Zoo.
That's his zoo.
That's what we're saying. It's his zoo.
Jesus Christ.
How do they not have a fucking professional?
He just wrote Columbus and spelled it wrong.
It's not spelled with a K.
What do you got, Luke?
Not an alumni.
Tragedy.
Are you using my...
Red band last name?
I just did. I just did. I never thought that wasn't your last name.
Obviously, it's not now that I think about it. I'm not seeing a Brian. What's your government name?
Is it a right call? It's Reichl. R E.I. C.A.L. Rikler? Rikel.
Reichel. Yeah. Like third Reichel. You got it?
Third Reichel didn't make it either.
Damn. Red band's your showbiz name? Yeah. That was actually my AOL screen name. And then
Rogan. That was your AOL screen name? Yeah.
Just you had no numbers.
You were just red band?
It's red band 420, of course.
You are a boring dirt bag.
But he's connected.
I know, but he had it.
Dude, he's had every opportunity.
The rich dad, the nice neighborhood.
And he's gone astray at every fucking point.
Well, what's crazy is my dad, his side of the family, was the dirt balls, the poor side.
And my mom was the rich side.
Like my mom's, my grandpa on my mom's side, president of Ford.
tractor, you know, World War II.
Why were you in a one bedroom?
Huh?
I don't know.
I don't have four tractor money.
Yeah.
But my stepbrother on my dad's side, you know, he owned a CB shop, you know, and shit like that.
Step brother on your dad's side.
Yeah.
But your dad had multiple marriages.
Before your mom.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Man.
Yeah. Multiple marriage.
How many step brothers do you have?
I have a stepbrother, step sister.
Different moms?
No, same mom.
Huh.
Yeah.
Your dad married now?
Yeah, but he's been married after my mom.
He's been married since.
That's pretty good.
No.
What she do?
She was an executive secretary for AP, American Electric Power.
What the hell's going on?
You got a girl with a bonnet and a fucking tight red.
You're on some type of inside.
I don't know what it is.
That's wild.
It's like the dollar tree of Luminati.
It is something weird.
Also, the way, if you think about it, he's big.
this his whole life.
Yeah.
He's at the forefront of podcasting.
Forefront of the internet.
Forefront of the internet.
Forefront of fucking, uh, the desk, test kitchen at wind.
This is what I'm saying.
He's been fucking, he's been at the car.
He's been at the horizon.
A little too much of a coincidence.
Mr. Red Band.
Oh, I agree.
I agree.
It's weird.
I don't know.
It's weird.
I don't know.
I keep falling into this shit.
Yeah.
Wow.
Okay.
All right.
Huh.
What was the first car?
Uh, Renault Alliance.
You got a Renault.
Ninety-84.
Renalt Alliance.
That's weird.
Well, who the fuck has that?
It was the prototype.
That was the car you would see.
That was like seeing a Pujo on the street.
Yeah.
Well, it was my cousins and she was her old car.
My mom's side.
And it was like all wrecked up and stuff.
My dad bought it for a dollar for tax reasons or stuff.
But he used that car to teach me because he's an engineer.
So he made me always change my alternator clutch.
That's pretty good.
Yeah, do all that.
Do all that stuff?
Yeah.
Well, I could probably do it now.
It's been so long, but he showed me how to do body putty and redo that.
That was like a project.
It was a project car.
That's pretty cool.
You looked at the Renault Alliance after like a year.
It looked like a brand new car.
That's pretty cool.
That's all right.
I remember they would turn on and like rattle.
Yeah, they were shitty.
That's odd.
What did you get parts for that?
Junkyard.
We used to go to the junkyard and like pull it from other cars and stuff like that.
I respected.
Yeah.
What was the first concert you remember going to?
Pointer sister.
So Ohio State Fair, right when that song Jump came out.
Holy shit.
The Pointer's at the fair.
Was anybody famous in that?
It wasn't like, not Diana Ross, but somebody like that in the Pointer Sisters and then launched a career after that.
Or were they on their own?
I think they're still the Pointer Sisters.
Did they do the Neutron dance for Beverly L's cop?
I'm just burning it.
You know anything about that, young man?
No.
Gosh, you're missing out, man.
You aren't missing much.
I think I'll, I think I'll manage.
Interesting lineage.
Yeah.
The Reichel family.
What was the supermarket they were shopping at Groger?
Respecter.
Yeah, that was my first job was a bagger at Kroger and stuff like that.
Yeah.
He just won Kevin's heart.
He doesn't shut up about his time at that.
Somebody's clearly jealous.
Ask him how banana.
What's the code for bananas?
The code for bananas?
Obviously it's 411.
Oh.
What was this next situation?
You're going to embarrass me if they let me show off my produce code not?
That just backfired in your face.
Grapes, 4088.
We don't know.
Red Vine tomatoes.
Nobody knows that's true.
Check it.
You could Google what the fuck the Baconator was before it was the Baconator.
I guarantee I'm right on that.
And other facts that I've said.
That may or may not have alluded to it.
Okay.
Listen, we've got to put our beefs aside.
He's a Mr. Brian Redd band.
He's a dirtball through and through.
I know, but it's odd.
He's a specific type of fucking, how old are you when he got your passport?
Oh, uh, young, probably.
No, I think the first time I got my passport was because I worked with Joe and I had to go to Canada or something.
Really?
Yeah, so it was like, yeah, it was probably like 35.
Wow, that's not great.
Is that when did you start working for Joe?
30 when I was 30 years old.
30.
So 22 years ago.
When did the podcast blow up and start making a bunch of money?
We didn't start the podcast till, see.
Well, I did that Carl's Mancia video.
Right.
That was 2007.
Just going back,
I was making the rounds again.
Yeah, around 2010 is when we started.
And it blew up within like the first month of doing it.
It was,
originally we weren't even going to do it as a podcast.
We're just doing it as like a YouTube live stream type thing.
And then people are like,
I want to listen to it at work.
So then I just took the audio out of those streams
and just started throwing it up as a podcast.
Again, the forefront.
That's what I'm saying.
Hmm.
Interesting.
This guy's tapped in
He's like a Manchurian candidate.
He's operating and he don't know why.
Red band might be either from the future or an alien.
We're not sure.
Did you hear how I even met Joe?
I'd do the quick version of this.
This is scumbaggy as hell.
Respect.
In college, my favorite band was nine snails.
And this is before internet.
There was no internet.
And I just remember I was like shirming one day.
And I looked on the back and I noticed that his publisher was in Cleveland.
And I was like, oh, my God.
You know, I'm right to write a letter.
So I worked at a music store at the time, and I wrote a letter to the address on the back of the CD, and I go, hey, my name's Brian.
I work at this record store, and I have this newsletter, and I give it out, you know, all the time.
Is any of this true? Is that true?
No, it wasn't true.
But I was like, I would love to be able to do an interview for my Ninth-N-Nail newsletter.
I call it NIN head instead of deadhead.
And then they actually wrote me back or called me back, and they go, yeah, send us a copy.
We'd love to see it.
And I was like, oh, shit.
So then I went to the library, had all these magazines of like Trent Redder and I just wrote out and copied Pace, had fake letters to the editor that I wrote myself, you know, and stuff.
Put this whole like 10-page newsletter.
This is all right.
Yeah, it's set to my 10-page newsletter, all Xerox copied.
They were like, we love it.
Any show you want backstage, anything like Marilyn Manson, anything on the record label, you can go.
So then I just start going to nine snail concerts and just hanging out with Trent Resner in the back and had my camera and got to take up.
Trent Rezner?
Back then I, yeah.
He would interact with them.
That's like almost famous.
You what?
I have photos of him when I was a kid.
Have you type in like,
Compromising?
Brian Red band Trent Resner.
You can see like a picture of me wearing a Stozy hat.
Shout up to Stozy.
That was a great brand.
How old were you at the time doing this?
19.
No shit.
Yeah.
It's like almost famous.
Right.
So then I started doing that for other bands and then I started doing it for Doug Stanhope
because I got into comedy.
Shout out to Doug Stanhope.
You weren't still right in the first.
You weren't still right in the first.
fake newsletter were you?
No, I had to do that once.
You never got busted for that.
No.
I only had to do that once.
Did you ever be like, yeah, I'm canceling a newsletter.
I was going to focus on my photography.
No, I just would take photos.
I would be in the front row before the front row and just sitting up there, like taking
photos.
In between the stage and the gate?
Yeah, where the security.
I was there one time for a band.
It was the coolest I've ever.
Who was the band?
The menzinger's.
That kid came up because you're a comedian and I was with my now wife and I was like,
I had a cool new jacket on too.
Remember that cool denim jacket?
Yeah.
The coolest I ever been was for one second.
I got to shake you down for a couple of ticks to the show, by the way.
They're coming to Cleveland.
What show?
Menzinger's.
Okay.
Go see him on Cleveland.
Or in Brooklyn.
All right.
Now.
This feels like an all-air conversation.
Hey, is Dave Thomas.
Red band's coming with me.
He's taking photos.
If anybody asks, we're writing a newsletter.
So when I got into comedy, I knew how to make websites and stuff.
So I started doing Doug Stanope's website.
How'd you mean Doug?
I just reached out.
out to Doug, I think email at the time. I also used to talk to Luis Cicay back in the day in email,
but I used to... You're that guy. Yeah, you're the guy that wrote Gary Shailing the letter.
Yeah. And then went and got to meet him and... Right. Yeah. So then I started doing all the
stuff for Doug and making videos before there was YouTube. So, and the internet was slow, but I was really
good at compressing videos really small so that you can go on their website and with that 56K modem.
It would load up and play a video before YouTube. How would you do this? I just...
I was, remember, I went to college, one of the first college guys, or, you know, I knew, I was a nerd back then.
You can write code and all that stuff?
He was the cool guy you see before us.
With the Mick Cafe.
Cheers.
And then Joe saw it.
Joe saw it.
Joe saw on, Mr. Rogan saw it on, uh, Doug's.
So you really did put a lot of these pieces in place for everything you see in front of you.
He wouldn't be here.
No, we wouldn't.
You're not getting the share of this.
And you know what?
everybody always says write a letter
I wrote a letter to fucking Big League Chew
thinking they would send me a bunch of stuff and they never
fucking responded to me. Hey, dear Dickens,
I love you gum.
Wow, that's crazy.
So then I know Joe started doing shit for Joe
and then one day Joe was just like, hey, you want to move to California
and work for me full time? And he's like, yeah.
And that's how it all.
What the frig?
Wow. That's pretty crazy.
I mean, but also at heart,
you lied, you fake the resume, you cheated,
you made a fake 9-inch nails publication to get in there.
Yeah.
That's all right.
It's on his resume.
The guy's like, you know Dave Thomas.
Okay.
The only thing that's true.
I swear to God.
To picture him in a Santa Claus outfit.
Jack Anna's holding him.
These are my boys.
Okay.
All right.
Now let's get into today and the general human behavior of,
Mr. Redman,
which this could go
surprisingly, or it could go
the way of the McAfee.
I got one we haven't touched on in a while.
Nice easy start off.
When you're putting deodorant on,
do you put the shirt on then deodorant then the shirt?
I've learned from many, many years of making mistakes
and forgetting to always put the shirt on first
because I don't know how many times I've looked down it
and I see the bigger guy.
It's tough, yeah.
I just thought you saw it now.
I did.
It was just cat hair.
Christ, take it easy.
I think that like yours is a terrestrial.
I hate that, that's the worst, man.
Yeah.
I did it.
I did it when we were selling merch.
We put it on to take pictures of and someone's like,
do those shirts going with the deodorant state?
Got me dead the rights.
It's embarrassing.
It's so embarrassing.
This is the thing that I don't get about it.
We've talked about this a lot.
I've never really used the anti-persefarin deodorant.
I'm always a deodorant guy.
And I never get the white shit.
Really?
I get the clear.
Wow.
You know, the, whatever, the rubber,
ball looking stuff.
Yeah, I don't know.
Different.
I don't know.
But that's still, yeah, yeah.
I like the old spice, like all the fun wolf ones and stuff that smell like Pez.
Wait, Wolf one?
Yeah, they have like, old spice has like this whole line.
Like, I think I'm wearing Superman.
Old Spice here.
But they all just.
Mario?
No, Superman body.
And it just smells like candy.
I love it.
Oh, yeah.
Man, you're a dirt bag.
That stuff?
That's the one I'm wearing.
That Superman one.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
What are you using body wash?
I mean, you are.
It's old spice.
Yeah.
I love old spice.
I assume you guys have different.
Oh, yeah.
He uses monster.
You guys have different.
You have multiple showers in your place, right?
Yeah.
But we use the same shower, but different bathrooms.
I blew my own up.
She blows hers up.
Gotcha.
Different toilets.
Yeah, different toilets.
Yeah, you do well, of course.
What kind of toothbrush are you working with?
I just got a new sonic care one.
Okay.
This is the question.
Have you ever used an electric toothbrush when it was?
It wasn't charged and just brushed.
Absolutely.
Of course.
So that feels ungodry.
It's weird.
It's weird.
Figured on that.
Are all the screens in your home intact?
Screens.
Oh, they are actually.
They are.
Okay.
Which is because, you know what?
I learned you just never take them out.
Yeah, that's probably the best bad.
You never touch them, yeah.
And without getting too personal, what is the property situation?
You still have the apartment downtown in Austin?
Yeah, that's my studio.
Do you own that or rent that?
I rent that.
Okay.
But that's just, you know, you know, do,
podcast and stuff.
And then you guys own the house.
On the house.
Bought it right when I moved to Austin.
Right.
And then literally a month after buying it, Elon Musk goes, moving Tesla to Austin, all these
companies started saying that house doubled in price in like six months.
Again, at the forefront of real estate.
At the forefront.
He was there before Musk.
Before E. Roy Smith is the great Joey Diaz.
For a comedy podcasting, then right at the forefront of the Austin comedy scene.
Pretty wild.
Pretty suspicious.
It is suspicious.
This guy's a plant.
This guy's an industry plant, dude.
Which some ancient astronaut theorist would suggest.
Kemp, let's talk about Factor.
Factor, Factor.
Our favorite factor.
Healthy, delicious.
On the go.
You got the holidays coming up.
You're going to be overeating eventually.
You know what I mean?
The fall's going to creep in.
You're going to want that pumpkin pie.
Do yourself in favor.
Keep it lean.
Keep it tight now with Factor with over 170.
Five band ingredients.
Every Factor meal is designed around.
what supports a healthier lifestyle and nothing that doesn't.
Mm-hmm.
With over 100 banned ingredients?
Yeah, they're banning ingredients going, this, this don't take, this don't cut the,
this don't cut the turkey.
This is bad for you.
We're getting it out.
They don't want it.
Get it out of our kitchen.
I don't even want to, I don't care where you got to get it out of year.
Look at these guys.
Listen, we've been with Factor for a long time.
Should jump?
I found Factor before the, before they were a sponsor, you get in.
Listen, it takes the chaos out.
It takes the, you talk about food noise.
I'm thinking about this.
I think about that.
It takes it out of you.
You go, I got something good at home.
I can throw it.
I'll be eating in two minutes.
Even if I want to get takeout,
that's going to take 25, 30 minutes.
Two minutes I'm eating.
It's the path of least resistance a lot of time.
For me personally, that's all I know.
And right now, let's eat real.

What's the,

No, we,

that pools are way too expensive
and their money dumps.
You're just going to be constantly
spending money.
And the neighborhood.
You're talking old guys at a barbershop?
Live your life.
Get a pool.
What are you nuts?
But the neighborhood that we live in,
we have private, like,
like multiple private,
huge lap pools, community pools,
but it's only
for our neighborhood and it's not that big of a neighborhood.
That's pretty good.
Yeah, it's nice.
Trashy, but all right.
It's brand new, too.
That heat with the first pool in Austin.
That heat with a backyard, no pool.
I'd fucking lose it.
Yeah, I just stay inside.
Yeah.
But the downtown place has pools too.
Right.
Joey was telling us.
Oh, yeah, he's moving in with.
He's moving in.

He's going to be staying there.
Yeah, once one week.
You'll be sleeping at the house.
Yeah, one week every month he's going to be there and stuff like that.
Will you guys do some sleepovers there?
Oh, yeah.
Cox on the Senate, come in.
Rub my feet, Brian.
Let's watch him.
He's going to get kicked out so fast for smoking.
Sure.
Okay.
Do you remember the name of the first strip club you went to?
Yeah.
It is, uh, the living room.
Dayton, Ohio.
Why living room?
Oh.
The living room?
Well, it started off, I don't know if this is true.
It started off, it was actually someone's living room.
And they just got so popular to start building off on it.
Oh, man, look at that photo.
That is a classic.
It got destroyed by a tornado.
Does it say 100 years?
No.
It's not around anymore.
It got destroyed by a tornado.
Ooh.
But that's the.
This girl's holding on at the polls.

Stealing like IP addresses, you know, from China and stuff.
But, uh.
So you can do all that stuff.
Tell you got her.
Okay.
It's been.
Wow. It's been a way. I used to, I mean, I used to shoplift all the time.
And I got caught for shoplifting when I was younger, stealing CDs.
Everybody got caught stealing CD.
Did you get sat down with Dave Thomas and a stern, heart-to-heart conversation with you?
I would have loved that.
Ghostbusters 2 soundtrack and Paula Abdul, those were the CDs I got caught.
I respect it.
But no, I haven't, I don't even remember the last time.
Picture of in jail. What are he in here for?
Paula Abdul.

Were you a Pokemon?

So I was going to his house playing Mario Brothers and before anyone even knew what Mario was.
At the forefront of Nintendo.

I'm not saying there's not a comedy addict there, but the one we did.
Okay.
The funny bone is the club I started off in Columbus, Ohio.
But now I think it's the comedy addicts.
There is a comedy addict.
That is not the comedy addict that we went to, though.
Okay.
Yeah, no.
That's not it.
But that is, you're, we are both correct.

Are you facing in?
I have to switch every 30 minutes because my arm falls asleep or, and now I have
tremendous arm pain and back issues from that.
Sure.
I don't know if sleeping like that is good for you or bad for you.
It's bad.
It is?
Yeah, you're supposed to sleep on your back, but I can't because I'll choke and die.
Get the fuck.
Yeah. Do you have some sleep happening yet?
I'm sure I do.
That's why I sleep on my side and, you know, so I don't.
You should go get a machine.

Do you sit down when you play pinball?
You have a chair?

when you play your games
you guys have a gaming computer or you're playing on a system
we have all the systems and we have a couple
gaming computers but lately it's been
we have the little steam decks
so we've been using it's like uh
it's like a Nintendo
switch
but it plays i got one of those
Somewhere?
PC games.
Hmm.
PC games.
Yeah.
So it's like a switch for your PC games.
Like this?
Steam deck, yeah.
What's a PC?
Oh, is that a brand?
Yeah, that's a brand.
What's a PC game?
Like, you know, like if you're playing games on your PC.
Okay.
But you can play it handheld.
Okay.

Do you know how to play on the computer with the keyboard?
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Is that what you prefer?
Uh, I used to, but nowadays the PlayStation, a PS5 is so great.
Yeah.
I lost that.
Had it.
What are the, what are the cars you got?
of an electric hummer
you are
it does the crab walk
he's every character in entourage
rolled into one
it does the crab walk
dude the electric hummers
the probably does the crab walk
yeah where it does the sideways thing
where you can go down the street like this
only when you play Cisco
yeah
type in king crab walk
a hummer
to park the car
yeah you can do shit like that
it's more for fun
but the cool thing is
the whole roof comes off
and fits into the front trunk
and you have a convertible
hummer it's the best
I have one of those solar roofs though, the Tesla solar roof where it looks like a regular roof,
but it's like hard, like shingles and Tesla batteries.
So I got rid of almost, oh, I got rid of- You're off the grid.
I'm off the grid.
What?
And it's like, your home?
Yeah.
And it's like, your home?
Because our neighborhood's kept on getting beat up from like hail and storms,
and everyone's getting the roof replaced all the time.
And I'm like, I want a stronger roof.
And then I was like, oh, this Tesla roof's like, it's like bulletproof.
And it's solar.
So then I got a bunch of batteries.
Is it metal?
Yeah.
It's like really hard.
It's like it's like,
actually I think it's like tempered glass, but super strong glass.
But now so I'm off the grid and free electricity for all my cars.
So I got rid of all my like my super and stuff.
I got rid of all my gas cars.
Why?
Is the electricity free once you pay for the roof?
They don't charge you a monthly fee or anything?
I paid for the roof.
And then, you know, I'm making so much electricity back that.
I'm selling it back to the...
It goes back in the grid.
So now I have credits.
Really?
My bill is like negative $500 and that's charging.
I just keep TVs on for no reason.
I assume the electric company doesn't like that, right?
No, they're buying electricity.
You're getting them electric?
Yeah, they love it.
How much is the roof?
It was pretty expensive.
I did get...
100 grand?
It was 300 grand, but I got like 150 back from the government because I got it.
So it's like...
Really?
Yeah, credits.
Sharp guy.
That's crazy.
Yeah.
I want to sleep 30 even more now.
But I got a Hummer and I got three Teslas.
You have three Teslas?
Yeah.
Are you an environment guy?
No, I just, once you go electric car, like that instant Tron power, like, you know.
Yeah, it is pretty nice.
And it drives me home.
Like, it's so good at driving now that it just almost all always just, hey, take me to work.
Take me to McDonald's.
You know, take me wherever.
Are you on your phone doing your thing?
Yeah, sometimes.
But it's also just...
You fall asleep?
No, I don't do that.
Because it films you to make sure you don't fall asleep.
Yeah, Janus was telling us it tracks your eyes.
You can't look away otherwise.
Well, if it's supposed to be that...
How far away you think we are from that?
A couple years?
About a year.
I mean, it's so good right now.
It could do it now.
I think it's more of like a legality thing.
It's like you're not allowed to be checked the fuck out.
You got to stay.
It wants you to stay.
I mean, it can't do anything if I'm in a car and I'm trying to hit you.
It can't do anything about that.
It would detect you coming at me and dodge and dodge and...
Really?
Yeah.
Stop being a dickhead.
It is way safer than, like, I trust it way more than an Uber driver.
You're like, it's better than, like, most drivers.
It's better than my girl driving, I think, you know.
She's Asian, so.
Hey, Brian.
I didn't know you're Asian.
