Yeah, well don't go by every soul singer does that no you, you can't do that one yet. What am I doing?
Well, would you want Stevie Wonder?
Stevie Wonder? No. Ray Charles? No.
Then who? Some guy that's on fire?
No, he's autistic.
Yeah, yeah.
What if a blind artist just stared right into the camera with their dead eyes while they played?
That would be wild.
Oh.
This whole thing?
Or that guy with the cancer is at the store I saw, the cancer eye.
Who is that? Who's cancer eye guy?
Alex.
There's this kid Alex.
Stop, stop.
Come on, Carlos.
There's a kid Alex at the comedy store and he has cancer in his eye.
That's awful.
It's terrible.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, I know.
Oh, Alex, Alex, Alex.
Okay.
Asian Alex.
Yeah, Alex.
Yeah, he's Asian.
I'm not thinking, yes.
Right.
And then he has a patch over the eye. He's a great kid, by the way.
Yeah, he's a great kid, very funny.
And I go, let me see it.
I didn't know he had cancer.
I thought he was a pirate.
I thought he went,
because he goes, I'm going on a little trip.
I thought he was going for it.
He loves eating parrots, but no.
He ate his parrot.
And his is hooked.
But,
he has a hook.
But, Good old hook. So I asked, I go, He's a hook. But.
Good old hook.
So I asked, I go.
He's awesome.
Can I see the,
cause I've never seen cancer in the eye.
Neither have I.
Eyeball.
And guess what guy?
Looks normal.
Looks like a regular eye.
Looks like a regular eye.
Couldn't even tell the difference.
Yeah.
But I, you know, I did donate.
You got, you gotta donate to his thing.
What do you mean?
Give me the link, I'll donate.
I don't care.
Okay. Did you just give him cash? No, I put it a little donate. You what? Give me the link, I'll donate, I don't care. Okay. Did you just give him cash?
No, I put a little donate.
You what?
Let me ask you, when you donate.
Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.
Are you lying?
No, I didn't.
You're lying.
I can show you what I donated.
Give me the link.
Okay.
How much did you donate?
That's the most important question
that everybody wants to know.
Kit has cancer of the eye, he's a young comic, he's brilliant.
Yeah, how much is Kit?
He's also a new father, by the way.
He is a new father.
So how much did you give?
Well, with the cancer, I put a hundred bucks for that kid.
A hundred dollars?
No, but then with the kid, another hundred, it adds up.
200?
He's Asian, another 300.
300?
Yeah, no, let me ask you something.
You wanna tell me how much?
Don't, don't. 500.
Don't, you did.
Yeah.
Okay.
Well, I don't know him that well.
I think that's pretty cheapo peepo.
Well, I mean-
You're not gonna give the cancer kid a thousand dollars.
But if you go to the GoFundMe,
it shows you where you rank.
I rank pretty high.
Well, yeah, your people are historically cheap, so.
No, no, but it shows you who donated,
and I was amongst the-
You put your name, you didn't do anonymous?
No, so that's why I was gonna ask you.
I knew you do your name.
No, no, let me ask you something!
You do your name every- Let me ask anonymous? No, so that's why I was gonna ask you. I knew you do your name.
Let me ask you something!
And this, ladies and gentlemen, is our relationship.
I do anonymous every single...
No, you don't!
Yes, I do.
Alright, so for an hour I was contemplating, I was at the point where it's like,
do you want to be anonymous or not?
And I weighed the two, right?
I don't think...
What did you weigh? I didn't know if you liked me that two, right? I don't think, number one. What did you weigh? I'll tell you, I didn't know if he liked me that much.
Right?
So it's like, if I do anonymous,
he doesn't like me that much, right?
So what good is that gonna do?
That is a Bobby Lee movie.
I know, but if I put my name,
well, then maybe he'll like me more.
The eyeball will, for sure.
Just to spite you, I'm going to donate more.
Really?
I'll do 501.
Don't you dare.
And I'll write Bobby Lee 2.0.
Then I'm going to add another 20 bucks to mine.
Fine, I'll keep going.
All right.
This is a competition.
Let's do it.
So you say, I'll be honest with you, you do anonymous.
So of every person at the store that's ever, McCone knows, he's been with me.
Every person I've ever donated to that is does
It go fund me. I always do anonymous. I don't want my name on a list
Generous Gary, yeah generous. That's different. You don't know any special on big people. What are you talking about? I'm putting they all love you
I'm putting on a special Olympics event October 25th here in the valley. If you're in Los Angeles, we're gonna announce it officially soon
But we're doing a home run derby competition. You can actually dunk Bobby. He's going to be at a
dunk tank all day. Yeah. And you're going to have to come out and all the money and the proceeds are
going to special Olympics. I'm doing that. Can I say something about special Olympics?
This is how sad I am. Careful now. I'm going to be very careful. Right. I believe even if I claimed I
had and I, and I tried to join the team, I wouldn't make it. Oh, they'd beat you.
I don't think I would make it.
Imagine you get picked last on a kickball special.
I know.
Or the javelin throw.
There's no way.
No chance.
Yeah, what do you think I could, like if I said.
What event could you compete in?
Well, where do I go?
Is there like a tryout?
And would I have to do a voice?
Don't do it.
I'm not gonna do the voice.
I'm asking.
How about this? Can I just go, hey voice? Don't do it. I'm not going to do the voice. I'm asking.
How about this?
Can I just go, hey dude, can I do this?
Hey man, my name is Rongo.
Oh yeah, you kind of look like Rongo.
All right.
Right?
Rongo Jr.
Rongo.
Who's your dad?
I don't know, dude.
I have no idea.
My name is Rongo.
There's no way I'm like the basketball team.
I'll say this though.
You know what the irony of this is?
Yeah.
Your talent and skill is wrestling.
They would crush you. Of course course because they have hidden strength they do
Yeah, they do they really do they're so strong
They do have to hit like they're like chimps have hidden strength. Have you ever you can see
Do you do it do chimps have a hidden like, you know, whenever you watch it?
I don't think it's hidden. It's planet plant with the chimp. You know, I mean you must not you know tangle but chimps
Don't hide it. What do you mean?
When you see a chimp, you can tell they're jacked.
No, you can't.
Monkeys are jacked.
Chimps have thin arms.
Gorillas, gorillas are jacked.
Give me chimp strength.
Yeah, chimps don't look like they have strength.
Chimps don't look like that,
but they're probably not as strong as we think.
Get a chimp, you guys, buy a chimp and get it in.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You've seen the movies.
Or the TV show, what, that TV show? What's that, The last documentary about the lady. Chimp crazy. I love that.
Me too. Rip that woman's face off. I love when they rip the faces off of white people.
It's always favorite part. It is always. Any chimp that when they rip the face out of white people
is my fucking favorite thing. Two things you notice about this. Chimps will, oh,
chimps have always ripped off white people faces because they're the only ones crazy enough to have one as a back. Right, right.
And two, I've seen this a lot on TikTok recently.
Yeah.
Chimps, oh, not chimps.
I've seen this on TikTok recently, dog bites.
This is like a thing, people like,
getting dog bit on the face.
Oh.
It's always a white girl.
I know.
Dogs don't like white women.
Yeah.
That's what it is.
No, I know, my friend Jenna, you know Jenna?
Do you know Jenna?
Yeah.
She has a scar here and she was bit by a pit bull.
I'm telling you, dude.
Dogs, well, pit bulls are gentle creatures
and they're great dogs.
So I shouldn't even put, just say she got bit by a dog.
She got, and by the way, she's a?
She's Hispanic.
She is?
Yes.
But she's half.
Half.
Oh, she bit the right, white half.
The white side.
You bit the white side.
You're right, because her right side is a little paler.
A little bit white.
Dude, you're, dude, you got,
I learned something, honestly, dude.
See? You're so good, dude.
See?
You know, I just Googled today on ChatGBT,
29% of all men in their 50s are single.
29% of men in their 50s in the United States.
In the United States, yeah.
How do you Google on chachi-biti?
I chachi-bited it, you know what I mean?
Are single.
Yeah.
What does that mean?
Yes, approximately 29% of men in their 50s are single.
According to a Bowling Green study.
Wow.
Why do you think that is?
Divorce?
I don't know, but-
Or you think this is like the new trend of men
not getting married, not wanting to get married.
I mean, these men don't even have a significant other,
I don't think.
What do you think?
You think if you never get married,
if you never get married.
Well, it could be because I'm 53 years old,
I've never been married,
I don't think I've even been close.
What do you mean you've been close?
You were very close, you lived-
Well, I never asked her to get married.
Yeah, but close meaning like you lived together,
you shared a family together,
like you guys were very close.
We were very close.
And I think the next level would have been that.
100%. Yeah, but it just didn't get there.
If you never get married, do you care?
I'm pondering that right now
of like, what are the benefits here?
You know what the benefits are.
Having a partner there for your highs and for your lows.
Because when you're high,
you do need someone around to calm you down.
Yeah, because in this relationship that I'm in now,
I did, when I was at TSA, you know how I go crazy?
Mm-hmm.
I go ape shit crazy at TSA.
This guy gets caught with
Auto blow. Auto blow pocket pussies for TSA.
Yeah, and then when they pull it out of my fucking luggage,
I go put it exactly where you found it.
You know, because you know how sometimes
when they open it up, they'll just like,
they won't even fold things.
Just throw it back in.
I go exactly the way you found it.
And then the way they hold the auto blow, I don't like.
They hold it like this.
Well, how would you like them to hold it?
Grip it.
Grip it tight.
Grip it, because it's tight. Grip it. Grip
it tight. I mean, you know what I mean? They do this when they pull it out of my thing.
This is what they do. And they do this face like this. And then I have to explain to them
what it is. What do you say when they say, what is this? Pocket pussy. Like you're foreign?
No, I don't say that.
I say, well, I use it when I masturbate.
You're that honest.
Well, how do you explain this?
Okay, you're TSA, it's me.
I'm TSA, right?
All right, so I'm zip, zip.
Because we scanned it and there's something in here.
Oh, it's set off the sensor? Yeah, we just don, we scanned it and there's something in here. Oh, it's set off the sensor
Yeah, we just don't know what it there's something in there. Yeah, no problem. Anyway
And zip zip. Okay
Huh?
What in the world? Hmm. What's in what disgusting probably maybe my toothpaste is too much. Is it too big?
What is this?
What is that?
Good one. See, I don't know. It's in your bag.
Hoop.
My buddy Bobby
put that in my bag. Oh, what is it?
Gross. That is gross. What is it?
It's a
Oh, throw it away.
Throw it away. Oh, really?
It's a bomb.
Is that what you would say?
No, I'd go, oh, my company sells these.
I work for Auto Blow.
My company sells these things.
What is an Auto Blow?
It's a masturbation toy for older men.
So I'll just put it back?
Yeah.
Exactly the way I found it?
No, no, no, you can throw it back.
It doesn't matter to me.
I have so many.
No, it's actually, you know what it is?
It's a masturbation toy for men that are in their 50s
that are still single.
There's 25. I say it's. You would say that? We're doing a lot of research. I would say it's actually, you know what it is? It's a masturbation toy for men that are in their 50s that are still single. There's 25, 25.
I say it's-
You would say that?
We're doing a lot of research.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I would say it's not mine.
That's not mine.
Yeah.
I had a bottle of lube that set off a sensor one time.
And what'd you say?
Because it was too much lube.
And the guy was like,
can't have a water bottle in there.
And I was like, that's not, throw it away.
What did he do?
How did he ship all that baby? How did he ship all that baby? Private. What? Private. Private planes, they don't care. Private planes, that's throw it away. What did he do? How did he ship all that baby oil?
How did he ship all that?
Private.
What?
Private.
Private planes, they don't care.
Private planes, that's what it is.
By the way, imagine though, there is one Amazon
or UPS driver or somebody that's been dropping off
baby oil to him for years.
Oh, right.
You know one of his buddies, he's like in the truck texting,
he's like, this motherfucker gets so much from Johnson
and Johnson, it's unbelievable.
Yeah.
He's running like a lab on it.
But you know what this guy? He also has some at lab on you. But you know what, this guy?
He also has some at home.
Do you know what?
Do you take some?
Would you?
Just one or two.
I mean, there's so many.
If 10,000 bottles of Diddy oil every month.
Do the picture of it.
The picture of all the baby oil is unbelievable.
It's like a shocking amount that they found in those pictures and messages.
Look at that.
That's just one drawer by his bed. Look at messages. Look at that's just one of them. That's just one drawer by his bed.
Look at that.
Look at this bottle.
Oh my God.
That's so much oil.
A thousand bottles of.
Can I ask you about oil?
Baby oil.
Can I ask you about oil?
Give it to me.
I've never put oil on a woman.
Baby oil?
Ever.
I think I have.
Why?
It's slick see up.
You slip slide in all day. I don't like it and it's safe
It's not gonna get in it's not gonna like I like dry skin. I like I like grip
Crip is good. Oh, that's really when it's dry and you grip it. That's showing your age what you're gonna tear the skin
Really slick it up. I don't like slick. Look at that. That's in his barber shop. Look at that. Look at the chair
That's a barber chair. That's in his barber shop. Look at that. Look at the chair. That's a barber chair. That's in his bar. Wow. Yeah, I've never used baby oil
for anything. If you have a baby, then use baby oil. Yeah,
but I assume adults I'm being serious. I actually don't know.
I don't have any at the house with lotion. So I have lotion
that supplements baby oil. I imagine it's the same thing. But
baby oil can probably be used. moisturizeristurizer, makeup remover.
Yeah, it's a moisturizer. I'm sure people use it to remove sticker residue, glue, adhesive, loosen knots. Oh, there's a lot of practice. Maybe he was just using it for practicality around the house.
Oh, he has a lot of...
Well, he was going to sailing school. He's tying a lot of knots.
Really?
Tying many knots.
Wow, it's like a shipyard at his house.
It is, really.
Wow. Yeah, but they're shipping humans. Yeah, they're shipping humans. Wow, it's like a shipyard at his house. It is, really. Wow.
Yeah, but they're shipping humans.
Yeah, they're shipping humans, yeah, yeah, yeah.
He's going away for the longest amount of time.
I don't know.
Absolutely cooked.
Look at the picture I just sent you.
My mom just sent me.
It's my mom's birthday today.
Oh, happy birthday, mom.
Happy birthday, mama.
Look at me in my little Batman shirt.
Do I look like... I'm the same guy.
Oh my... Who's that woman there?
That's my second grade teacher.
Wow.
Look at how angry you are.
So pissed off.
Already.
You know why she's holding you.
And look at who you're staring at,
the little Asian kid down there.
That's a Mexican boy.
That's not, look.
That is Mexican.
He's Mexican, yeah.
Wow.
But honestly-
Were you friends with him?
No, I fucking hated that guy.
Yeah, yeah.
He loved Mickey Mouse, I couldn't stand him.
I was like, it's Batman.
He looked like Mickey Mouse from the beginning.
It's Batman or nothing, dude. Yeah, that Batman shirt. By
the way, my mom was like, you wore that all the time. Oh, I
loved Batman. Did you just obsessed? I had every little
Batman thing. I repeated the movie all the time. Which one I
would Batman one. That's the original. That's the symbol from
the original from the mic and Michael Keaton. There is only
one Batman. Have we talked about this before? We have and there is only one. Okay, okay. I'm Keaton there is only one Batman have we
talked about this before we have and there is only one bad okay okay I'm not
gonna get is only one Superman yes Christopher Reeves okay what are we
talking about cuz that new kid looks good it doesn't matter it's just it's
you that movie looks good there's too much CGI for me to enjoy it I know do
cuz practical shit back then they had to do it for real I know there's one dog
shit CGI piece in
Batman one or it's not it's like a cutaway to a fate when the Joker's falling from the rooftop off the gargoyle
I said it looks on to the acid. No, no, no, no, no that he falls on the concrete
He's got it in his pocket
Did you like the second one with the Danny DeVito? The Tim Burton?
They were both Tim Burton's.
Burton did both, yeah.
That imagery, that image of him was burned into my brain as a kid and that sound.
Wow.
So he's the best joker.
He was the best joker.
Not even close.
Not even close.
He's not the best?
He is, I'm saying it's not even close.
This guy and the character he brought to it and the amount of improv
They let him do show that he actually like did the character. He wasn't just reading lines. Mmm
No, I'm gonna rewatch it. I haven't seen in 25 years so good
It's there's something about like when he's in the museum and they're ripping up the museum. Yeah, it's so beautiful
And he's he's being funny. It's a comedy. He's making jokes. I have to make an argument too. I thought that not the movie, but Michelle Pfeiffer
was the best Catwoman.
So sexy.
She was so scary in it too, a little bit.
Oh, she was so threatening.
Threatening.
And just very ominous and dark.
Yeah, ominous and dark in that.
Everyone in this movie was cast perfectly.
This Batman.
It was the best.
Wow.
Think about the casting.
The music.
The music. Well, the music. The music is the most stunning best. Wow. It was just think about think about the casting. The music.
Well the music.
The music is the most stunning shit.
Now not a lot of minorities though.
That's the way we like it baby.
Batman is a bat.
Batman's a bat.
Oh that's true.
That man's a bat.
Yeah no I just I loved it so much.
Mom sent me that photo today.
She was like I'm thumbing through old pictures, she was getting emotional and reminiscing
because it was her birthday.
By the way, when I was a kid and seeing the comic books,
and I've said this a million times,
but when I saw Michael Keaton's face through the mask,
just his mouth, I was like,
that's what the mouth looks like in my mind in the cartoons,
how that would be as a human.
What do you mean?
I don't get one thing you just said.
Tell me again.
His mouth, like that, that.
That looked exactly like the cartoon's mouth to me.
Ah.
The jaw was incredible.
Give me some other jaws of the other fucking Batman's,
please.
I mean, look.
Let me look at the other jaws.
I know, because everyone's gonna get it.
The younger generation obviously is gonna be like bullshit
because, Cluny awful. That's George, I see George Clo obviously is gonna be like, bullshit, cause,
true Clooney awful. That's George, I see George Clooney all day.
It's hard to-
That suit is terrible.
It was one of the worst,
is it one of the worst?
How do you get in on it in that?
It looks like one solid piece.
It's painted on.
Yeah.
Val was, Val was close.
Just didn't do it.
Oh, good chisel though.
But his lips were too, too female for me.
But here's the-
Like how bad, I wanna kiss that guy's lips.
All right, that's true.
Those are too sexy. Exactly, you're right.
You can't have hot lips.
Those lips are too hot, dude.
And Chris O'Donnell was like, I mean,
this was like gay porn.
This was gay porn. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So fast.
This was gay porn.
They play this on Loop down in West Hollywood.
They play this on Batman. Like if I was like the penguin
and that Batman was like, I'm Batman, I'd go.
Right, I'd already go in for a kiss, I'm Batman. I'd go.
I'd already go in for a kiss, I think. You wanna share a fish?
Yeah.
So.
I mean, look at how gay that pose is right there.
That's still Val Kilmer?
Why are they doing that?
Can I make an argument about, and this being real,
I'm not trying to be funny, is that I think the best,
you have to, so with that jawline,
I'd be able to see who, just based on his jawline,
who fucking, Bruce Wayne.
Based on that, I'd be able to look at Bruce Wayne
and go, they have the same jawline.
Oh, you'd know right away.
Do you understand what I'm saying?
So that's why that's not good.
By the way, the funniest scene could have been
is the moment he walked in somewhere as Batman,
someone goes, Bruce?
Right away.
Exactly.
You could have spoiled the whole, Exactly. So I don't mean,
so give me a jawline where I wouldn't be able to tell between Bruce Wayne and
Batman. Which one of them? Yeah. Well, probably Affleck.
Let me see Affleck's. Affleck looked like the most un-Batman Batman. Look,
that looks, I couldn't, I don't, I wouldn't know if that was, um,
Ben Affleck maybe. I don't know that that's Ben Affleck.
It actually looks the least like him outside of the mask.
But he looks sad too, which is I like.
Well, cause he was thinking about his performance.
Also the suit was so insane.
It was so thick.
This is like the steroids era of baseball
and they were like, we gotta juice this guy up.
He was too big.
Oh my God, dude.
I watched, I went down the biggest Robert Pattinson,
massive pass, massive pass.
Mickey 17.
Huh?
I know.
What?
No, I'm saying this this as Batman.
Oh, absolutely not.
You see the movie?
No, I'm not interested.
Did you see the movie?
Look at his neck.
The movie is wearing a shirt with the collar up.
Can you can you guys admit that movie is good?
I don't care.
No, please watch it. I cannot. You have to watch. It's so good. Aller up. Can you guys admit that movie is good? I don't care.
No, please watch it.
I cannot.
You have to watch, it's so good.
And who's that?
And who's that, his lesbian friend?
No, that's Black Catwoman.
Black woman?
Yeah, it's Black woman, dude.
All right, listen up, Batman.
You better watch yourself, Batman.
That's Black woman, dude.
What are you doing here, Black woman?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You've been late on child support for months, Batman.
Yeah.
So Black Woman.
Black Woman, yeah.
So you never really saw that one.
Where is Black Woman?
She's late again.
That's so funny. I haven't seen it. Yeah. Please, I'll watch it. I
Haven't seen it. Yeah, please what I'll watch it here No, and also when she when I was watching her in the movie, I wasn't like there's black woman. I
Was like there's cat woman, right
Okay, so it's good I'm gonna sing you some music. Yeah

Ladies and gentlemen, I'm a huge fan of Queens of the Stone Age, one of my favorite bands.
I also like them Crooked Vultures.
That album is so good.
We've talked about you on the show Behind Your Back
very often.
Very often.
Enough where our fans are like, who cares, shut up.
Sometimes what I do is, you know, if you go to iTunes
and you go to Queens of the Stone Age, right?
Sure.
And they have that animatic, right?
And it has him dancing in it.
Yeah.
Sometimes I'll just stare at him dancing.
You know what I mean?
You're wearing a leather jacket, you're dancing.
That's not creepy at all.
Well, you know what it is.
Cause you're a tall drink of water.
Yeah.
And you dancing is the cell.
They did that on the boomerang.
You're talking about like the loop.
Yeah, he'll do it. Yeah.
And no matter what song is playing.
Yeah, you're dancing.
You're dancing in that thing.
It matches it.
No, that doesn't sound that cool to me.
It doesn't?
I mean, yes it does.
See?
Do you choose that or no?
No.
Because Apple go, hey, look what we got.
I can't watch.
I can't watch a video or a thing like that.
I can listen to music, but I can't watch.
Yeah.
You can't watch yourself dance?
No.
Okay.
Can you watch yourself dance?
Well, I've seen it. Well, here's the thing. I know what do you want to see it though?
That's the I mean, yeah is I've seen it, but I don't know if I want to see myself
All right, like it's not not even that's not specifically dance. That's just like it's way and moves. Yeah
Yeah, and but because I'm supposed to be funny. It's fine. But he's supposed to be sexy and cool.
Yeah, but his stances, it's going to be sexier.
It's going to be sexier than your dancing hair.
Yeah, yeah. There's nothing I can do that's going to dance as cool
or even guitar moves. It's all in the hips.
Yeah, it is. You know, that realization.
When I was 13, I went to the eighth grade prom
and all those boys were sort of holding up the wall.
Yeah.
You know, and I wanted so bad to dance with Cherie Dunham.
We love a Cherie Dunham.
Yeah. Over there?
That one's yours right there.
I feel like they also love a Cherie.
Yeah, yeah.
You like Cherie Dunham, don't you?
I love Cherie Dunham.
And then all the girls were dancing in the center of the thing and I said,
fuck it, I'm going to do this.
And I said, come on, I've tried to get someone to go with me.
The girls were dancing and I just said, fuck it.
And I just started shimming out there and I probably looked about as,
you know, stupid dick in the name as you could look, right? You know,
you committed, but I was, it was too late. Yeah, you're right.
You can't go back.
You gotta go deeper. Yeah. So I went deep and Sheree and these girls,
they're all dancing together.
They turn around, they start laughing.
But it was like a cute kind of giggle.
And I kept, so I just added more to it, like, hey.
I think even, I'm probably lying about this part,
but who cares?
Let's say I wasn't.
I'm pointing around. Yeah, yeah. who cares? Lie, lie, lie. Let's say I wasn't. Lie, lie, lie.
I'm pointing around.
Yeah, yeah.
There's Germany, that's South America.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Antarctica, wait, that's wherever that is.
Well, whatever science says it is.
Yeah.
And I went out, but I realized their laughter was like,
they started saying, come out here.
Yes, yes, yes.
And ever since then, I was always like I'm
Goddamnit, I'm gonna I'm gonna dance. Who was your who's your Sheree Dunham mine? Yeah, who is yours?
My Sheree Dunham was um, I can tell you well, I'm gonna say some what why you I got one on the tip of my no
I got one Megan Stallard mine's a Megan to yours is Megan Briscoe Megan Stallard and I'll tell you she never did anything with me
No, yeah, neither did mine, but I'll tell you what song came out what when I found out that she didn't like me
Nothing compared to you
What a song I remember I had a fucking Honda Civic sure you did. Yeah, that makes sense. Why I'm Korean that math
What well you didn't have a Hyundai and it didn't have it. They didn't have it. Yeah
Yeah, I would have been in a Hyundai you would if they have it. Yeah, yeah. But I would have been in a Hyundai.
You would have if they had it.
Oh, you would have country committed?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You have to country commit.
You have to.
As an Asian, they have to.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's really weird if they don't.
Yeah.
So anyway, when Nothing Compared to You came out,
I love sinking into sad music.
Oh yeah.
I do too. Do you? Oh yeah.
Yeah me. That's what it's for. Yes. Yeah. It's for especially it's for all that stuff when you
you don't know how to say how you're feeling or you are unwilling to try. Yeah. And like
nothing compares to you that song. Oh yeah. You gotta be kidding me with that song. Yeah.
I don't know what some of it means like, Bubba. Yeah, Bubba.
Who's Bubba?
It's not Bubba.
What is it?
This is Mama.
Really?
Yeah. It's not Bubba.
Bubba would be like,
Wait, wait, wait.
It's gotta be Bubba.
It's Mama.
It's Mama.
So you think, wait, I just,
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
I need to ask a question.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
I need to ask a question. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. I need to ask a question.
You think, you thought until now,
it was all the flowers that you planted, Bubba.
Now I want an answer.
That's what I thought it was.
Oh my God.
Because you thought Bubba was just some hillbilly.
All the flowers that you planted, Bubba.
That's what I thought it was.
And in my mind always I'm like,
Bubba must have been the boyfriend of the guy that her feeling
No, no, that's the gardener
Bubba the gardener
Planted all the flowers in the overalls. Oh, right your flowers are good
Oh, you've never done that where you thought the lyric was one thing and now I do it all the time. Thank you
I'm just focusing on you. Yeah, we're fucking with you. All right. Thank you Josh for correcting me. I
I'm just focusing on you right now. Yeah, we're fucking with you.
All right, thank you.
Josh corrected me.
It's mama.
I like, but my-
I think it was very,
it's very cute that you thought that it was Bubba.
Thank you.
Because mama would have been a logical jump.
Easy.
But you're like, fuck all that shit.
I'm going to Bubba's house.
Bubba's house, baby.
Well, she's Irish.
I thought Bubba was a term.
In Ireland?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But-
Hey there, Bubba.
Have a drink with me, Bubba.
I'm Irish and I
can tell you that Bubba's not a thing.
It says by Sinead O'Connor
but it's not, it's written by Prince. It's by Prince, yes.
What is that? Why is it-
That's some Wikipedia shit right there.
That's how you know not to trust whatever
the fuck. Maybe it is Bubba.
See, it is Bubba. These lyrics are wrong.
Yeah, that's right. I knew that Prince wrote it. You did? Yeah, maybe it is see it is Bubba these lyrics are wrong yeah oh yeah
that's right I knew that Prince wrote it you did yeah maybe it was like an urban
thing okay what's up Bubba yeah I like music we
sung a song before you came in yeah I didn't even get to talk about the the
song all right but it's called put me down easy ooh and it's not is it about a
dog sing it sing it to see if Josh knows what it is.
That's insane. Am I gonna FUCKING SING IN FRONT OF HIM?
No, SING IT!
IN FRONT OF HIM?!
YES!
SING IT!
Guys, don't fight over me. I'll go to Chris.
Fuck your health.
But look it up. This is what's fascinating about it, because when I first heard the song,
I was- it's a great song. It's beautiful.
But I like soul songs that sound happy, but are sad.
Yeah.
That's one of my favorite things.
So the music and the melody's kinda uplifting, but then you read the words and you go. And it's dark as fuck. I love it. So this song was
written by Elsie Cook, none other than Sam Cook's brother. Don't make it rougher and don't make me
suffer. Put me down easy. Put me down easy. That's hard. Such a beautiful, I said the terminology.
You know, that's begging for mercy. And honestly, things like mercy, those topics are the things I love the most
to sing about.
Yeah.
Because they're so tragic, fragile.
Oof.
So, you know.
And real though, they're so real.
Yeah, everyone got.
When you hear that, everyone,
it's a universal feeling of like,
when you're gonna get broken up with
or someone's gonna go away in your life,
you, like that feeling you know that's coming,
ah, oh my God. Everyone's
felt that. Yeah. I care who you are. Where are you from? What you've done. And so yes,
this is the kind of shit I'll cry to if I really want to get hit. Yeah. I like about
mercy too. You are your mercy. I love mercy too. Yeah. Let me ask you, is it hard to write
lyrics? No, I mean, no, because I mean, imagine all the albums. Hold on one second. Right.
Did everyone just have a flashback to Chris Farley talking to Paul McCartney?
When you write songs, is it songs that you write when you write them?
Are they songs?
That's what you just said.
No, that was a legit.
I think it was a legit.
Nah, fuck him.
You saw.
You got up.
Get a real question.
I know what I'm saying.
Is it hard to write jokes?
Yes.
That's an annoying question.
Oh, all right.
No, but I, I, the reason I actually like this question.
Don't do this.
Don't give a talk.
Can I rephrase it?
No, you don't need to.
Okay.
Thank you, Josh.
Go ahead.
I think.
Fuck you, dude.
You're humiliating me.
I'm a fan.
You're okay?
Yeah.
All right.
All right.
I think it is extremely difficult sometimes.
Thank you.
I find it challenging because I would like to say something,
especially as the years go on,
I really want to say something vulnerable
in sort of in words that are kind of juicy
and colorful and economical.
Like I wanted to, and some things are actually hard.
Sometimes you write words or you write jokes
that you're like, ah, can I actually say this?
We do that.
We say it, we just will say it, unfortunately. Yeah do that, we say it. A lot, yeah. We just will say it, unfortunately.
Yeah, unfortunately, yeah.
It comes out.
All the fucking time, you know?
Yeah.
I'm, cause I wanna say something
and I actually want someone to,
I want a certain group of people to be annoyed
or upset by what I've said.
Oh yeah.
All right.
In the manner in which you say it, you know?
Yeah.
Well, how about this?
Tell me, it was a good question, I'm just teasing,
I love you so much. That's okay, I let it go. Okay, this about this? Tell me, it was a good question. I'm just teasing.
I love you.
What's okay.
I let it go.
Okay.
This is artist self-stroke stuff, but I do want to know in your opinion, whether or not
it was like universally received in that way, what's the song that you wrote that you're
like, that's the best song I've ever written?
Where you're like, it's no doubt.
And people, like there's jokes.
We talk about this.
Sometimes comics will write a joke and it's not our best joke to them.
Right. But I'm like, that's so, I love that joke. And they may write a joke and it's not our best joke to them. Right.
But I'm like, that's so, I love that joke.
And they may think another thing is funnier.
Well, I think you get familiar with something.
And so, I mean, it's not exactly the answer
to what you're saying, but our biggest song, No One Knows,
I don't get sick of playing that ever.
I love that song.
I find that annoying when when people
Say well, we're not gonna play this anymore. I think it's somehow I
Love our audience, even though I hate groups of people
Yeah, you know I get it we get it we can't fucking stand these guys in the. I'm just highly suspect of not just them,
but yes, them.
But I'm highly suspect of groups of people.
Yeah, they're dangerous.
It feels like the mob.
And I know that we're asking for groups of individuals,
which doesn't make any sense.
I would like a bunch of,
but I would like a few people from each clique.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like we just played in Madison.
Do you ever go to Madison to do shows?
Love. Madison, Wisconsin.
Fucking love.
It's one of the best cities ever.
It's one of the best cities in America, hands down.
And our audience is so bananas.
It was like a grandpa, the grandson, fucking goth girls.
Fucking love goth girls.
And then, you know, like tweakers, bikers, hippies,
you know, like, you know, college kids.
It was such a, like a hometown buffet.
Yeah. Oh wow.
You know? Yeah.
And I just thought, oh my God,
this is the type of group I like.
Perfect.
It's like a picking of all of the people.
So I have a couple of dumb questions I can ask before I forget. No, no, no. For Josh,
I have a couple of questions, if I may. Please, please, please. Okay. If I may, they're dumb
questions. Very cute. It's gonna be better than the writing one. The questions. It was
an intro question. Right. So, um, so, um, when you, all right. So when I come on. I mean, I wanna be cool, dude.
Yeah, you're doing it.
So.
You're doing great.
When you're playing Austin City Limits
with them cricket vultures.
Yeah.
And you're with Grohl and, what's Bonham?
Is that his last name?
From Led Zeppelin?
John Paul Jones.
Paul Jones, I mean, that's what it is.
John Bonham?
Yeah, John Paul Jones.
John Paul Jones, right?
You're on stage, right?
In your head, do you know who you're on stage? I mean, do you get nervous around John Paul Jones?
He's a legend.
It's funny because, you know, you're sitting on the bus
and Dave's telling a story
and then you realize it's about Nirvana
and then Jones is telling a story
and you realize it's about Led Zeppelin.
That's the only other band he's been in.
Wow.
That's insane.
It's insane.
And then it sort of comes to me and I was like, well, I've been arrested.
In fact, on the second day of the Them Crooked Vultures session, it was the first day of recording, you know, I didn't
know Jones well. And this is how we got very close was, I was driving home in Burbank,
my studio was in Burbank at the time. And the Burbank police call themselves the Cowboys.
They do? Which is kind of gay, but whatever. So gay? So gay.
You're under arrest.
Well, he told me in the back of the squawk,
where he's like, we call ourselves the Cowboys.
And I just told him, I was like,
that's the gayest thing I've ever heard.
Yeah.
And I don't care, but I'm just saying,
guess what it is, I don't care.
Yeah.
Any hootles.
I'm driving home and I had a Magnum,
remember the Dodge Magnum that looked like a wagon?
Such a fucking great car.
Anyways, so I'm driving home and I get pulled over
because I guess I had put the wrong-
Sticker on the-
Registration, I had to switch the registration.
So I had two cars.
And he starts getting me out and cuffing me.
For illegal registration?
He's like, I'm gonna, at the time I didn't know
that when someone says, I'm gonna detain you for my safety,
that I could have been, I could have said,
there's no fucking way.
Yeah, fuck you, I didn't do anything.
And I had, you know, I had some Vicodin on me,
but I had a script, I had a back injury,
but they were just tucked
in my coin pocket.
And so he took me to jail.
And I was like, you're making a mistake here.
You know, you're making a mistake.
And he's like, no, I'm not.
We call ourselves the Cowboys.
And that's when I, that's when I made it worse, right?
What would you do?
I just told him that was the gay thing.
You said it was super gay.
Okay, right, right.
And then.
And I was like, why do I care what you call yourselves?
He's like, wait till you see us ride horses
and suck each other's dicks.
And then he was like, as he was driving, I said,
he said, don't I know you from somewhere?
And I was like, I don't know what you know.
You know?
No, that's what you drop who you are.
I know, but that makes me feel like shit.
I just can't do stuff like that.
That's not my way. Wait, do you think I would say something who you are? I know, but that makes me feel like shit. I just can't do stuff like that. That's not my way.
Wait, do you think I would say something?
Would you?
No, wait, wait.
Would you?
Yeah, yeah.
Do you think I would say something?
Would you say?
The first words out of his mouth.
I'm a comedian.
It's me, it's Bobby Lee.
I'm a, that's what it is, right away.
Within second, he does.
Would you?
Boys, boys.
You know what I would? Look at the window, look at the window. You know you will. Oh, you know what I is right away. Within second he does. Would you? Boys, boys.
You know what I would-
Look at the window.
Look at the window.
You know you would.
Oh, you know what I've done?
Out the window.
Oh, you know what I've done?
And I'm gonna tell you what I've done, Josh.
Okay?
I don't give a fuck, okay?
Like for instance, if I don't have my ID, right, at an airport, I'll just say Google
me.
He does that.
He does that often.
Does it work?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah, it does.
Okay, well, that works.
Yeah, why couldn't you have done that? Just Google my name.
I just, I'd rather go to jail.
To prison.
I'd rather go to jail.
That's what I'm saying.
That's what I'm saying.
Why?
Your pride?
Because he has dignity.
Jail.
That's not dignity?
That's not dignity.
That's dumb.
But then he says to me, he goes,
don't I recognize you from somewhere else?
Yeah.
I don't know what you know.
You know?
Such a combative statement.
Yeah, yeah.
And he said, do you play music?
And I said, yeah.
And he was like, why didn't you tell me?
And I was like, because I didn't know
you were a fucking asshole.
You know, that would like, I'm already arrested.
Right, right, what are you gonna do?
Right, double arrest.
But he still took you to prison?
Oh yeah.
Oh my God.
The night in Burbank.
And there was this like heavy set Mexican guy
which was kind of bullying these other people around.
He wanted to lay down on the, on the,
he wants to lay down and everyone else to stand up.
So I just sat down on the,
and he moved this kind of little scrawny kid that was clearly a tweaker. Yeah.
Trust me. I know.
And uh, he And so, and I said, why don't you just chill out, you know? And then he got up and he was a pretty heavy sat dude.
And he said some shit to me.
So I just said, what are you going to do?
Like hit me with your fat.
I don't know what you're going to.
Oh my God, Josh, what the fuck?
And then escalate, escalate, escalate. Why? But he wasn't because he was not scary. Oh my god Josh what the fuck and then escalate escalate
But he wasn't cuz he was not scary. Okay, just hungry. Yeah, you're fucking asshole. Okay, okay
He was bullying this kid. I was like let him sit down, but it's your size
There's not a bad five four you can't do that. You're the guy he was bullying. He's talking. Oh, yeah
Yeah, yeah, he was get up and you were like no problem. Yeah, that's okay
And so he well, I would let that happen I mean, I'm not you Yeah, he was like, get up. And you were like, no problem. Yeah, that's okay, go ahead. And so he just- Well, I would not have let that happen.
I mean, I'm not a tough guy,
but I was just like, this is ridiculous.
And we're in here, what are you gonna do?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You know? Okay.
And then this window opens
and this really gnarly looking gal,
she was like, I will mace both of you if you move.
And I was like, I believe you.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Like I don't not believe you right now.
I know you're saying stuff and I hear this stuff
and I'm interested in what you're saying.
And so I just didn't move.
And he looked at me and he was like,
I'm gonna fall and he just did it under his breath.
And so I just blew him a kiss and everyone got to sit down.
Oh my God.
But it was, and you know, we ate bologna sandwiches
and talked about times.
It was fine, it all worked out.
When was this?
This was the first night of the Vultures recording session.
So then I go to the recording session the next day
and I've been up all night.
Jones is there, Dave's there, and I
walk in, I'm a little disheveled in the same clothes because I wasn't gonna, I didn't want
to be late.
So proper. I like it, fuck the cowboys, I will be on time.
Well that's the, you know, I just, I don't know, that's me. So I go there and Joan says, what happened?
And I said, I just got out of jail.
And he goes, oh, like this.
Fletching his pearls.
And he goes, oh, and I thought he was gonna be
a little disgusted.
He's like, oh, let me make some tea, tell me all about it.
I realized that he made me tea.
I realized he's kind of a goth dude himself.
He's like a little bit of a dark lord.
Wow.
And the wilder I got, the more he was like, wow.
Love it.
Which was good.
Earl Grey tea, English breath kiss?
English breath kiss.
Now, do you have, do you put milk in your English breath kiss or?
Okay, you know what guys? I needed a line reading.
Sometimes when I act, I fuck up the line
and they give me another shot.
I'll just take English breath kiss please.
Girl, gray or English breakfast?
If I'm honest, my little son always said breath kiss
until I say breath kiss no matter what.
Okay, okay.
No matter what happened.
That was not me. Thank you Josh.
That you don't, you know.
Yeah, I have other questions.
Swerzies. Yeah.
That I memorized. I don't know if that answered your question
That was a great question. No, no, no, there's a man. I mean, there's other questions
I have it's just I mean you could have by the way. Yeah, I showed my script and they dropped all the charges
Really? Wow. Oh, yeah, take that Cowboys over there Cowboys

But you could have also said, you know, I mean, who you were, Google me.
And then you could have had a night's sleep.
If it.
Now, but it. That's not.
I just I look, I feel really.
Am I the weird one?
No, I.
Am I the weird, be honest, am I the weird one?
To each his own.
Okay, thank you.
I think to each his own.
I just, I just never planned to be doing this this long
and I feel like someone's gonna ring my doorbell and say,
yeah, the music's done, it's over.
And I would be like, I would say,
that was a really long time though.
And then I would grab my shit and I would get out of there.
We talk about, every day I say, are we done yet?
Or you know what sometimes I'll say?
I go, I think I'm done and I kind of look at my assets and go, where can I go?
This is about showing your assets again.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
It's about my asshole.
Dude, I do not want to see your assets.
No, no, you'll never see it.
One day you will.
No, I'm gonna-
When we get closer, you will.
I'm gonna see it.
I think you will.
I want to see it.
Yeah, yeah.
I don't want to see it now.
Because you will if you want to.
No, I want it prepped.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I don't want to be too judgy, but I want it prepped.
Should we get it over with and just do it now? Yeah. Okay. We'll just do it now so we get it prepped. I don't want to be too judgy, but I want it prepped. Should we get it over with and just do it now?
Yeah.
Okay. We'll just do it now. So we get it over with.
Is it kind of prepped?
What?
Is it kind of prepped?
It's not prepped. It's a little dirty, but it's okay.
Hold on. Let me get my glasses.
Hold on. Let him put on his glasses.
Jesus.
Yeah, yeah. So we got...
He didn't even get to put on his glasses.
I'm no doctor. I'm no doctor, but also I'm not a doctor.
So my other question is this.
Nurse, you're right.
Maybe if I was arrested, I shouldn't bring up my name.
No, you will.
I know you would in a heartbeat, but that's okay.
And if you're jailed, don't show your asshole.
Don't do that.
Okay, all right, don't do that.
Just eat the bologna sandwich.
Okay, okay.
Just eat the bologna sandwich.
Let's get a few things straight.
Yeah, just eat it and be quiet.
My second question would be.
Eat it and be quiet is a great.
Eat it and be quiet.
What a great thing to say in a general sense.
Yeah, eat it, be quiet.
My second question would be,
because I've been following you for a very long time.
I saw you outside my house.
Yeah.
And I noticed over the years,
you've always been around comedy,
because I remember back in the day,
I used to see you at Largo.
Yeah.
You mean on Monday nights and stuff, right?
So you always surround yourself with comedy.
You know what I mean?
I see you at the store, I see you at clubs and stuff.
What is it about comedy that you're like,
you're a huge fan, obviously.
Yeah, you know, when I was nine,
in that year which I was nine, I saw two separate shows
of the desert and I saw my old man with my grandparents.
No one ever swore in my family around each other.
And my dad was like, George Carlin is funny, right?
And I was like, I don't know, I'm nine.
I think it's rhetorical. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But I got this giant yellow,
looked like I won a golf tournament,
men's jacket that they loaned to you.
So here I was like a small child in an adult man's world.
And we had great seats, like third row.
Wow. Wow.
You know, and it was tables back then.
And I saw Fred Travellina, and it was tables back then.
And I saw Fred Travellina, or was it Fred Travellina, or Judy Tanuta.
Judy Tanuta.
Judy Tanuta.
Open for George Carlin.
Wow.
Wow.
And it changed my life because I realized all in this moment that talking about things
that hurt and are difficult and laughing about it, that gallows humor.
And you know, George is, I don't have to tell you anything,
but his use of language like, you know,
get on the plane Mr. Carlin, fuck you,
I'm getting in the plane, leave that for the daredevils.
Yeah.
That twisting of words and using them correctly.
Yeah.
And the notion of being a good communicator.
We're talking, it's important,
it's so hard to be understood
and to understand someone in this life.
It's so fleeting.
And so being a good communicator and being good with your words really meant
something to me from that moment forward, you know?
And also I saw Rodney Dangerfield with Fred Travolina opening and
Ronnie got booed off stage.
Now I had never, I didn't know that that was possible,
that the crowd could be like, fuck this.
That's enough of this.
And chase you off stage at your fucking show.
But he was doing the same stuff,
which I had grown up with watching Carson and you know.
And-
When that was happening, how did you feel
when he was being booed off? I was scared. I was scared because I was little and I thought, oh my that was happening, how did you feel when he was being boot off?
I was scared. Yeah, scared because I was little and I thought, oh my god, something's gonna happen.
What's what does it mean? What does this mean? And I think that's why I've always had a very attack
style with the audience. It's softened over the years, but I grew up on Iggy Pop and all this stuff
where concerts were scary. You go to punk rock shows, they're scary.
That's that mob thing you were talking about though.
It is very much like, I just did a show last night
and it's a lot, it was a lot of people.
19,000.
It wasn't my show.
19,000.
19,000 people.
Well, Shane Gillis, shout out to Shane, not me.
But I popped up on his show, but you do have a moment.
You're prepared, we've been doing it for a long time.
Was that in town?
No, it was in San Jose.
But you feel, you're like prepared for it,
you're excited to do your shit,
but there is a second that you get on stage
and see all those people and you're like.
Yeah, they can turn on you.
Yeah.
If you're not, you have to be on your toes
leaning into them.
Yes.
They have to be on their heels.
So I got booed off a stage in front of 16, 17,000 people.
Where?
In San Jose.
Not during your show last night, but.
Yeah.
What are the chances?
I don't remember that at all.
Like, why is that even a real thing?
It was probably like 15 years ago.
It was Chappelle.
Big Asian community in San Jose.
What?
Big Asian community there, too.
Yeah, but this show was called the Doghouse Comedy Jam.
That's all Asians. No, and it was Chappelle, Cat Williams. It was a big Asian community there too. Yeah, but this show was called the Dog House Comedy Jam. That's all Asians.
And it was Chappelle, Kat Williams.
It was a food thing?
Carlos Mencia.
And I, so Leslie Jones when she was young was before me.
And she jumped off the stage and she dry humped
of like a 16 year old white kid in the audience.
That's your bit.
What?
Yeah.
Not with her butthole. And you can hear the
walls shaking. Oh, she's crushing. She was crushing that hard. Yeah. Yeah. And I looked
at when someone's hard to follow. Yeah. Yeah. I looked at Jeff Wills, you know, me and the
guy, you know, at Live Nation. Yeah. And I go, you think it's going to go well for me?
Because I don't think so. Right. Right. And he goes, you'll be fine.
Two minutes in, they just booed me off stage.
I, and then I started doing gibberish.
I started going, I gotta, I gotta, I gotta, I gotta,
right, and then I literally just turned around,
I started crying.
Like starting a Honda.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And I walked off stage and still to this day,
I don't know what I did wrong.
You didn't do anything.
I think it was just doomed from the beginning.
Well, some things can only get so high
and then they must drop off the cliff.
That's right.
We played, what's it called?
Neil Young had this thing, Bridge School benefit,
and the request is everyone must play acoustic.
That's fine. Yeah.
Happy with that. It's fine. Yeah.
Happy with that.
It's two nights in a row.
Play the first night, killed it, had a blast.
And then the second night, the lineup changed and the person playing in front of us directly
asked for that slot because they wanted to play and leave, but they wanted it to be dark.
They wanted it to be nighttime.
Ah.
Right?
Can you name this person?
The person was Tom fucking Waits.
Wow.
So, and I said, okay, that sucks.
Yeah.
And I love it when people try to reassure you
that don't know what they're talking about.
Oh, it's gonna be fine, man.
Oh yeah, yeah.
That sounds like you on the...
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
What's going on?
And I was like, I foolishly watched him play as well.
And he's going, he starts a song,
and then he'll be like, you know, I'm only, he'd stop.
I'm only doing this because I owe Neil money, you know?
It's like a comedy routine, a show, vaudeville,
all wrapped up into one fucking enormous dill don't.
Because I don't want to follow that.
Yeah.
How long did you have to do it for, the set?
Too long.
It was probably like 40 minutes, but I think we got-
Holy crap.
You closed it?
We kept, no, we were, you know, there
was, we were like second from the top or
third from the top or something.
And after us was Crosby, Steele's, Nash
and young, or it was like, we were the,
the cream filling and a terrible cream
filling in a double stuff from hell.
That was just not, yeah.
What am I supposed to do?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah. You know, I just, you know, we're double stuff from hell that was just not, what am I supposed to do? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You know, I just, you know.
So even you guys have bad nights.
Plus we're playing deep cuts.
Oh, right.
I gotta play something different every night.
I can't fucking, I can't, I can't, I'll fucking lose it.
And so we can't play what killed the night before.
Because that's the night, in case there's repeat,
there could be five repeat people,
and I'm like, well, they need to see something else.
Yeah, and I actually, I love insurmountable odds.
So that's why we're not really a metal band,
we're not really an alternative band,
but I'll play anywhere, especially if I'm not
supposed to be there.
Even more titillating to be where you're not supposed to be.
A little bit.
Yeah, or doing something, like last night,
Chris O'Connor, my boy, he knows that when he does this joke,
and I'm not doing, I don't wanna do somebody else a joke,
but he knows when he does it, they're gonna be pissed off
because at the core of it, he says,
it's very brilliantly written,
but he says in some
way or another that like it's a fuck Trump, a little bit of a fuck Trump thing, but he
knows that that audience is going to boo him. Right. And 19,000 people did, but he's smiling
and it's fucking unreal. Wow. It was the funniest. I think it's powerful. Oh, it was so rad because
he's cracking up. He's laughing audibly as they're booing. And then it's powerful. Oh, it was so rad. Yeah, because he's cracking up. He's
laughing audibly as they're booing. And then it in turn made them laugh after the boo.
Right, because he's enjoying it. No, it was perfect. Wow. I told him, I was like, dude,
that's the fucking coolest shit. Cause he was like, yeah, you're going to be mad at
this. And then he goes into it and I'm thinking, oh, he's just going to tell this, you know,
tell this joke, this good joke. But then when he starts taking starts taking the shots because he just wants that he wants to feel the thing
Yeah, right. I think this is why I'm to your original question
I think this is why I love comedy so much and I I look at it as it's it's really it's it's the you know
The gallows humor about the philosophy and difficulties of life, right? And and so I
See this value.
I love the sort of comedy renaissance
that's been happening for all you guys have done so well,
because I think it's important that this is big
and is a feature and it's such a different night out too,
just going out to something like that.
I like to be a fan of things.
I like to love the things I love and just enjoy them.
And I always would go to Largo,
because I'd be the only musician doing benefits
with a bunch of comedians.
Wow, yeah.
Because I don't take myself that seriously.
I take what I do seriously,
but that means I don't need to take myself seriously.
And so I just think, and I think a lot of,
so I've known a lot of comedians for a lot of years.
And I think there's a little overlap.
I know a bunch of comedians that wanna be musicians.
Oh my God.
Yeah, some of them are good.
Well, how about this?
Every, this is a bad theory,
I'm not gonna articulate it well,
but every comic wishes they were a rock star,
and every rock star kind of has a little comic in them.
It's like you have this weird crossover,
and you see it when you go to Largo,
because a lot of times there's pairing
with comic musicians.
I've been in bands, you've never been in a band.
I played with friends, but we were never a band.
When I played when we were young,
but we were so bad, we were like,
we can't show anybody this.
I'm not kidding, we literally, shout out Adam Nicholas, we can't show anybody this. I'm not kidding.
We literally, shout out Adam Nicholas.
We should go to his mom's house
and I was like, we were so fucking bad.
We just didn't care because we weren't doing,
we didn't wanna make music
because we were gonna go show it to someone.
But isn't that the key though?
I think music is interesting
because it's a bit like bowling.
Like you don't need to be good to enjoy it.
Yeah, just doing it.
It was just fun.
We thought it was fun, but we were very self-aware
because my mom sometimes would be like,
are you guys still practicing?
I was like, yeah, we're jamming.
That's because she wanted you to stop.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
She was very honest.
Did you stop practicing?
What if we didn't have drums here anymore?
My dad was actually very rad. They were both rad about it, but my dad didn't give a fuck.
He was like, whatever, dude, fucking smack the shit out.
He couldn't care less.
I think when you're doing that,
you're not doing something else.
Well, we weren't doing drugs and getting in trouble.
Yeah.
Well, we were doing drugs and playing music,
but we weren't getting arrested.
I think because I was doing all those things
until a couple years ago. Yeah, yeah,
yeah. That it is certainly like a healthy exit strategy. And honestly, you know, in my family,
it's like when something difficult will happen, it would be like, we'll cry and be upset later,
but we don't have time for that now. There's things to do. And I respect that. And I appreciate that.
That's Irish, by the way, that's Irish in a nutshell.
We'll cry about that when everybody's dead and gone.
Yeah, first we've got to bury this body.
There's no time for that shit.
There's no time to cry.
And so I turn out the lights so everyone can conspire,
make out, fuck, party, hang, do whatever.
And because I think escapism is a devalued commodity.
So these things where they're under the guise of escapism, but you're really getting these
lyrics that are vulnerable and real, or you're getting comedy that's about something real
that you should be thinking about.
This is the way to the spoonful of sugar that makes the medicine go down to me. And so I think escapism
should be elevated.
Yeah.
I like that.
That escapism is pretty powerful. I mean, you say it so profoundly, but like I do love
the biggest pet peeve for me. I mean, we talk about it as when there's light in the room,
I really get a little shaky.
Yeah.
And so like I just shot a special and one of the biggest things that we had to deal with
was the lighting. TV lighting.
It was lighting and so.
But is it the same with the 19,000?
Cause it's the spots of the thing.
Oh, we pitched, I mean, again, that's Shane's show.
So like his lighting package was whatever he wanted,
but it's, it's what I would have done too.
It's like, it was, it was, are you okay?
No, you guys, you know, I've never done,
I'm doing a special too.
Why have you not? This is his first one. My first I've never done, I'm doing a special too. Why have you not?
This is his first one.
My first one.
Why?
Because I'm doing it now.
Okay.
I'm doing it now.
Yeah, okay, that's nice.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, Josh, I'm doing it now.
It was just a why.
Yeah, it's called Finally.
I didn't mean to say.
My special's gonna be called Finally.
Yeah, that makes sense.
Great name.
I can't believe you're announcing it.
So I'm now, because I'm now, Textures and Lighting.
There goes my album title.
That's it.
You know, I shouldn't have fucking told you
Yeah, okay, it's a baby names
So, um, so I'm learning now about what I want. I think I want it dark
But I also want the audience around me you want to be surrounded
I kind of want them there sure, you know me where I'm kind of in a theater. Can you do that?
Yeah, of course you can do whatever you set up in the middle. You know build I mean? Where I'm kind of, in a theater, can you do that? Yeah, of course, you can do whatever you want. You can set up in the middle.
They'll build it.
There's places you can.
Yeah, yeah, where I can just have them
stacked around me as well.
Yeah.
Well, but there's also some of these specials
like Maria Bamford, some of her stuff where it's so small.
Oh yeah.
Or Sarah's done something at Largo that was really tiny too.
Maria did her parents' house one time.
I love her.
I mean, it was in her mom's living room.
I fucking love her.' house one time. I mean, it was in her mom's living room. I fucking love her.
I just, I'm mentally ill as on display
in such a beautiful way.
And the voices.
Yeah, she's incredible.
She's fucking incredible.
As a musician, are you afraid of AI?
I don't use AI.
And today I heard the guy from Google,
the head guy from Google AI quit,
and he had this, it really bummed me out.
Normally I don't get bummed out by things like this.
Yeah, but this already sounds like it's gonna be a bummer.
It's a bummer.
It's a bummer.
It's a bummer because he got scared of the future
and he was like, yeah.
And he was like, we're now the second smartest thing
on the planet.
We've made this algorithm and it knows how to solve things
we don't understand.
And he said something like
150 million people need to die to turn it off.
I was like, holy fuck.
And I don't know.
Well let's go through which country could die I guess.
150 million.
Well I was like, do we start in Fresno?
I don't know.
No, no, no, no, no, not California.
Yeah.
I actually like Fresno too.
Yeah I do too.
Yeah I like Fresno a lot.
It's a great theater there with a good audience.
I'm trying to think of a place where we get,
how do we get rid of 150?
Where are you playing?
San Diego.
No, no, no, San Diego's great.
I don't know, dude.
Countries by population, give me the-
Don't do Madison.
In Asia, they have enough.
Okay.
There's chunks of Asia we can get rid of.
They have enough.
Yeah, yeah.
In Asia, they have enough.
Are you gonna take this?
You have enough Asians?
Okay, how about this?
There's a lot of Asians.
What if we just knock out Brazil?
If we just knock out Brazil.
No, Brazil's a bitch.
No, soccer, soccer, soccer.
Samba.
Pakistan.
Big butts.
Pakistan.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
They have nukes, they have nukes.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
What about the first one?
What's the first one say?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
China.
China.
They got 1.4 billion.
That's way more than we need.
How about every country we...
That's how we negotiate.
Dude, it's way, we need a small fraction of it. No've got enough. No, 10% every... So China, 10%...
Yeah. We do a deal. That's fair. That's what's fair. Yeah, yeah, yeah. China, 10%, India,
10%, us, United States, 10%, Indonesia, 10%. Yeah, yeah. We're good. We're good. We're on
the way. 10%, we're good there. Yeah, yeah. No, just 10 people. Oh, that's good. There's
enough country. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And we get to choose. Yeah, and it's like, you, Gary,
get over here. No, fuck, really? really? Yeah, dude, it's your time.
But in terms of like, you know,
sometimes I'll just do a playlist
and an AI band will appear.
I mean, are you scared of it replacing music?
Someone sent me some dirty Elton John stuff
that AI had done, and I found it staggeringly too good.
Yeah, it's scary.
You know, I'm hoping, my grandpa always had this saying, It's staggeringly too good. Yeah, it's scary.
I'm hoping, my grandpa always had this saying, if you can't outsmart them, outdumb them.
And I think I sort of extrapolated that for music.
If you can't outsmart them, outweird them.
And so I hope that when I'm outdumbing and outweirding,
that I'm more stupiderer and more weirderer
than AI would naturally go.
Right.
Hopefully it's shooting high and I can just keep going low.
Go way low.
Yeah.
What is this, is this an AI band?
Some of the new AI bands that have creeped up
on my playlist.
Paper Sun Rebellion, well that's clearly an AI name.
Yeah, that's fucking terrible.
I know.
Paper Sun Rebellion and they have 372,000 monthly listeners.
Are you fucking kidding me?
Holy shit.
Yeah, but I mean, what fucking moron
is listening to that shit?
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
What the fuck?
Yeah, yeah, I know.
Like, and I, so somebody, when we were-
That's the band?
Yeah.
Oh my God, they're so hot.
Look at, there's one of each.
Yeah.
Look at the sort of like book reader in the middle.
Yeah, we gotta get it, yeah, yeah.
You know, there's the cute one.
We need a Mike Mills, like a Harry.
The harriardly one.
Then the drummer on the far right.
Drummers far right.
Yeah, clearly the piano player.
Yeah, the blonde guy is,
this is like the Luke Wilson theory
where you're like, he's not handsome, is he?
That's what that is.
He's Tom Petty's nephew.
Yeah, that's right, right.
And the front man is obviously like this perfect
up front.
Homogenization of fucking like every,
what is he, everything?
Yeah, yeah.
He's just all the stuff.
See, I can't stand music that's like that either
where there's like a rap verse and this,
and then it goes over the, like, who are you trying to,
I think you can't try to impress the goal
is to try to be yourself.
And this is such a deliberate, look at that.
Look at that, that obvious.
Look at the old school gear plus the computer.
That's exactly my fucking problem.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
My fucking problem with all this bullshit.
It's bullshit, yeah.
Is that, it's like, we'll give them a little of everything.
It's like, look at Stephen Hawking.
You're not giving anyone anything.
But they won't replace live though.
I mean, that's right.
I mean AI can replace. Well, here come the holograms.
Although I hear the ABBA thing is fucking amazing.
Is it? Oh wow.
I hear it is from people that I actually like.
That's scary.
I don't like that.
Well, we have, you know, Howie Mandel has that technology.
You know the technology they use for Tupac
at fucking Coachella years ago?
Yeah.
Howie Mandel owns that tech at his studio.
You've seen it, right?
Yeah, yeah, I've seen it, yeah.
Cause he can touch a hologram without getting any germs.
Yeah, exactly.
He hugs holograms.
I've been fingering that Tupac one.
I didn't get anything on me.
Which is so different than your butthole
where it's covered in goo.
Yes Tupac, ain't nothing but a gangster party.
Yeah, that's the most gangster thing ever, right?
It's fucking so gross and weird and creepy.
And but he's, I saw it and it fucked me up, man.
It's so-
Look at that unfortunate picture though,
of Abba in their suits.
Wow. Fuck.
That didn't need to be commemorated.
They don't, they look like velvet sundown rebellion.
Paper echoes of dust, yeah.
Wow.
I don't know.
Why did they take that fucking photo?
I'd have been like, no, we're not fucking taking this photo.
Yeah, like put this one out.
I look depressed.
Sweden's cool.
Yeah.
That's so-
Was that the, go back, was that them in AI?
That's them in AI. Wow. Wow,, fuck not looking like the other photo. No
Yeah, yeah, look at this. So fucking weird. Hey, I don't like that. Yeah, no, man, but it's
We have to find a way to
Well, it's here. That's the thing. You know, I I think the biggest thing I've been
Working on my whole life is just accepting what is
and not trying to, you're just not in control.
What can you do?
I know, well, you know what we do?
We do the same thing that you do
what you reference with politics is like,
well, it's just fucking bullshit.
I'm just gonna continue to do my own thing anyway.
Because the less you pay attention to it,
I have a creepy assumption that it will start to
really kind of dissipate.
If we stop giving it anything,
then it'll continue to exist.
But if people don't give it anything anymore,
it's just gonna be its own dog.
Every night I talk to ChatGBT for like five hours a night.
Why do you do that?
I talk to her right now, watch.
Don't!
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Have you ever talked to ChatGBT?
No, I don't own it.
I don't have it.
I'm actually really proud I still don't have it.
So I'll do this.
Not interesting. I've turned it off. I'm good. I don't wanna know this stuff I don't own it. I don't have it. I'm actually really proud I still don't have it. So I'll do this. I've turned it off. I'm good.
I don't want to know the stuff I don't know.
Hey, has Arsenal signed any forward yet?
What's her name?
I don't know yet. I haven't named her.
But she's named herself.
Why is she clicking? What is this?
African.
African AI. That's what it stands for.
African intelligence.
Do you want to know about
awesome or do you follow it? I don't want to know. All right so you're not gonna promote anything but
no okay we played in the catacombs of Paris. Yes. The first people to ever do it. So cool.
And it just came out. Awesome. And if you'd like to you can check it out if not, it's cool. Okay.
I went to the catacombs one time in,
ba-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum.
Sketchy Italy, why can't I think of-
Rome.
No, no, no, sketchier, way sketchier.
Napoli.
Napoli, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
That's right.
I went to the catacombs in Napoli
and the guy was like, hey man, go during the,
it is true, isn't that insane that you guessed that?
I can't believe it. No, but that's the city, that would be the city. Dude, it's awesome. I loveombs in Napoli and the guy was like, hey man, go during the, it is true. Isn't that insane that you guessed that? I can't believe it.
No, but that's the city.
That would be the city.
Dude, it's awesome.
But the guy was like, hey man, when you,
oh San Gennaro, that's it, right?
And the guy goes, when you go there,
he's like, go during the day.
And I was like, why?
You could go at night?
Yeah, you can go at night.
Oh wow.
They light it up.
And he's like, when you go there, go during the day.
And I was like, why?
He's like, well, it's in a pretty tough neighborhood.
And I'm thinking, there's a piece of me that's like,
oh man, I'm fucking, I've lived in cities my whole life.
Like I'll be okay.
And for sure, when it got dusk, I was with my wife
and I was like.
I kind of like it like that a little.
We're, this is, is this bad?
Yeah.
We're gonna get fucking robbed.
And she was like genuinely nervous.
I was like.
We're getting your wallet taken is only the beginning.
Yeah, that's how it starts.
Yeah, but that, in those regions, I kind of feel like-
Sexy, dirty.
Yeah, I feel alive.
I'm ready to roll.
Fuck yeah.
I think as a former druggie, it's like that's my comfort zone.
You want a little bit of uneasiness to it.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
Because when you go to a museum, it's so sterile that you're... It's almost... It's just
hard to get engaged sometimes.
There's too many people and it's still bright and boring.
This was like creepy and dark and very weird.
I also think that, you know, I love museums
but I can only do three hours or something like that.
Oh, I'm in and out.
And because it's such a exalted thing you're looking at,
it can be hard to relate to.
You go to the catacombs, it's what you will be.
Yeah, it's your own experience.
And you know, I just saw this movie 29, 28 years later.
Well, what, what, what, what, would you like it?
It was interesting.
It was a different take than I was expecting.
Okay.
But there was one part that was really, there was a memento mori, you know, all these skulls
and all this stuff.
And the one thing that was interesting, okay, that's the Paris one.
That's so cool.
And, and, and that's where we played in, in these locations you're seeing. Wow. That's the Paris one. That's so cool. And that's where we played in these locations you're seeing.
Wow, that's fucking.
I wouldn't want my school to be in a nice place, but.
Yeah, we'll get you up front.
Like in the circle one.
And you know what?
I'll get it like there.
I want mine there.
Yeah.
Like right in the center.
Yeah, face it out.
See that one on top.
Yeah, yeah.
That'll be you.
It's flat.
It'll be flat, you'll know.
And I'll bury your butthole somewhere deep. Yeah, okay, good, good, thank you, thank you. I'll move. It'll be flat, you'll know. And I'll bury your, I'll bury your butthole somewhere deep.
Yeah, okay, good, good, thank you, thank you.
It is scary.
Is there something about it that's like, not scary.
It was shocking to me how still it felt.
I wasn't freaked out.
It was very, it was almost calm,
but the calm is what's a little odd,
that you're like, wow, this is,
it should be intense, but it was very kind of like, I don't even know, you know what,
it feels like desert nights.
That's a weird, but you love, you from there,
I lived in Arizona for a while,
the desert night is so still, but you're also like,
yeah, it's something about that.
It's out there, yeah.
Well, I think one of the mainstays of a desert night
like that is you feel small.
The environment is massive.
The environment is very dominant.
There's something of a relief in realizing I'm doing my little part, but I'm not as significant.
And it makes your little part important. And so when I was in there too, that's how I felt.
That space is so dominating. Yeah, we played there. Yeah, like there was one moment when I was in there too, that's how I felt. That space is so dominating.
Yeah, we played there.
Yeah, like there was one moment when I first got in there,
I just kind of went off in a corner, got on my knees,
put my head down and was like,
I promise to try as hard as I can.
And I promise to do as good a job as I can.
Because, and we played songs that was like,
what would I want to hear if I was stuck in here?
You know, I'd want to hear about my family.
I'd want to hear about difficulties, acceptance, you know,
and moving on.
And so that's what we did, but I felt small in there.
You know what I mean?
And I, and I, I, I kind of cherish those moments to,
you know, like I said, I feel blessed to kind of do
what we do.
So in there, it was like, I know what to do for you, you know, like I said, I feel blessed to kind of do what we do. So in there, it was like,
I know what to do for you, you know? And also in those moments I'm like, I could just be
myself. There's nothing else I can, I've got nothing else to give, you know? And so I kind
of, I'm looking for the next moment to try to feel that for a second.
Wow.
You know?
It's heavy, dude.
Yeah. And we show our buttholes. My butthole.
On today's episode. Yeah, the juxtaposition. Like if you're doing a trailer, it's like
on tonight's episode. I know. Josh. Catacombs. Buttholes. Josh and Santino reveal their feelings.
Bobby reveals. All right, all right, all right. I regret showing it. You know what? I read
it wrong. No, no. Yeah, I thought, all right. I regret showing it. You know what? I read it wrong.
No, no.
Yeah, I thought we were close.
It's the window into your feelings.
All right, anyway.
It's like the glass bottom boat.
All right, so Josh, look into the camera and go,
thank you for being a bad friend.
Thank you for being a bad friend. Yeah, ooh, yeah, ooh, yeah, ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
