Starting point is 00:01:00 When it comes to smart water alkaline 9.5 plus pH with antioxidant, there's nothing to overthink. So while you may be performing mental gymnastics over whether the post-work gym crowd is worth it, if you'll be able to find a spot for your yoga mat, or if that spin instructor will make you late for dinner again, don't overthink how you hydrate. Life's full of choices. SmartWater Alkaline is a simple one. I used to watch porn in the 80s and I'd see some guy with some mongo wang and some girl with dislocated jaw like an anaconda. I go jaw like an anaconda. I go,
Starting point is 00:01:42 oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
Starting point is 00:01:49 oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
Starting point is 00:01:55 oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
Starting point is 00:02:02 oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, holes behind me, but, um, we're, we're working on the house or something. Jesus Christ. Some grassy, null stuff going on there. Okay. Christ.
Starting point is 00:02:12 Zap Bruder. Christ. Christ. Bit. Lots going on, Dana. If we're starting, let's start. This is Star Ted and we're almost done. Okay. Um, hi everybody. I have a story about Rite Aid, which is, you know, obviously interesting already. Which I love. That's already an eye catcher, ear catcher. Ooh,
Starting point is 00:02:33 what happened at Rite Aid? Yeah, Rite Aid. Okay. I want to hear. Yeah. So I have to go to Rite Aid, Dana. You know, celebrities, they're just like us. So I don't even, I'm getting toothpaste. I go to the biggest Rite Aid on Sunset. It's literally got 15 items left and it's about an acre. 15? I mean, it's kind of, don't do that. You can't abuse that. You can't abuse the look.
Starting point is 00:03:01 Go ahead. Okay. So you're going down the aisle and you're grabbing two people. I'm going down the aisle. Okay. Figuring out my hair. Okay, I'm going down the aisle and I see a guy walking in, huge dude with his shirt pulled up, right?
Starting point is 00:03:15 He's obviously on some hard time. Maybe he's homeless enough. But he comes in and he says that there's two people working and he's talking to them. I don't know what he's saying, but when I walk in, they go, sir, you'll have to pull your shirt down. By the way, I didn't think they give anybody orders like that. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:03:30 They usually don't say anything, but he goes, oh, I'm sorry, it's so hot. I'm drenched in sweat, but he's being very polite. That's all I know. It's a big story. Okay, he's being polite. So he's still meandering around. I go get my three things.
Starting point is 00:03:42 It is like a war zone. There's no toothpaste. In a whole aisle, there's one toothpaste. So I have to take that shitty one. It looks like Crest. It's like coloring, but it's not. It's obviously some knockoff. But I say, fine.
Starting point is 00:03:54 So I walk up. Is it just bear? Is it bear? I mean, there's just not much items out. Yeah, there's nothing. There's none in that one. I did a video. Okay.
Starting point is 00:04:03 Maybe I'm hitting them between stock one. I did a video. Maybe I'm hitting him between stocking. I don't know. Yeah, yeah. So, but I get only three things. So I walk up, I get in line. Now the two helpers at work that aren't there, cashiers. Now my man comes up behind me with his stuff. I don't even know what he's getting.
Starting point is 00:04:22 Mid Drift, Mid Drift guy, Mikey Mid Drift. Oh, Mikey Mid Drift comes up behind you. Right behind me, rubbing his stomach, just killing time. And then I am scared, because we're just standing there. And so I go, I don't know where these chicks went. You know, I try to buddy.
Starting point is 00:04:37 I say something like, it's me and you against the world here, you know. I'm your pal. Yeah, yeah. And then I look over and there's a, you know, Thrifty has like an ice cream cone part. Oh, you gotta have I'm your pal. Make friends. Yeah, I'm your friend. Yeah. And then I look over and there's a, you know, Thrifty has like an ice cream cone part. Oh, you gotta have an ice cream store inside of Rite Aid.
Starting point is 00:04:51 Yeah, Thrifty Ice Cream. Yeah. Right, so, been there forever, they're in everyone. So she's down there helping some woman forever, and the woman's like, do you have Captain Crunch? She's like, I'm like, that's not an ice cream, come on. Like, and I just wanna get moving. So the guy behind, yeah, he's good. It could be an ice cream flavor, Captain Crunch. Yeah, and the lady's like, I'm like, that's not an ice cream. Come on. Like, and I just want to get moving. So the guy behind, yeah, he's good.
Starting point is 00:05:06 It could be an ice cream flavor. Yeah, and the lady's like, Captain, I'm like, they don't, we don't, it's not. But anyway, the guy behind me goes, shoot, I think I'm gonna have to steal this stuff. I gotta get going. And who says that out loud? I go, yeah, man, I'm thinking about that, you know?
Starting point is 00:05:22 And then I only have three things. I'm not gonna bankrupt the store, but I'm like, I'm thinking about that, you know? And then, I only have three things. I'm not gonna bankrupt the store, but I'm like, I should probably... By the way, the whole LA is on the honor system now. There's no real laws or rules. It's just like, you either wait in line or you don't. You just leave. So, he's being kinda cool, but they don't come back.
Starting point is 00:05:39 So he says, shoot, hey, I gotta take off. I gotta go, I just gotta steal it. And I go, cool. You know, I give him the thumbs up, cool. So he runs out, then he runs into a man and woman with their three kids and he goes, ooh, sorry, sorry, sorry, I just stole this, I gotta go, I gotta, I'm in a hurry.
Starting point is 00:05:56 So he goes in and then I thought in my head, yeah, I go, where's he going? Like, you know what I mean, is he got jury duty? Why, why do you gotta rush out? I just saw you laying on the ground. He's gotta get out of here. He's gotta go. He, yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:10 Plus I thought he was there more for the AC because that's kind of why I was there. But he just kind of chilled. And then the people, I go, oh, are you okay? And they go, were you in bench warmers? I go, okay. So it was just a lot going on. So we took a picture of them.
Starting point is 00:06:25 Anyway, that's all. That's the whole thing. That's a good story though. I think it's a good story. I like just from a human level that you kind of were chill with the guy. Yeah. You were warm to him.
Starting point is 00:06:40 You know, he's probably hurting. And he was polite. Did he have no pack, four pack, six pack, or 12 pack? No, he was a little... Chunky? No, I'm not gonna say that, Dan. I take it back.
Starting point is 00:06:54 Let's not, let's not go there. It was a, I think it was a mesh shirt he was going with, like a look, that look. So I think you have to be pretty ripped to have that. I've been in line at Riot Aid. We're on the other side of the Riot Aid. Someone is having a bad day, and everyone's waiting in line to get their meds,
Starting point is 00:07:13 and we're all kind of, and then it's suddenly on the other side of the stores. Rargh! Get in the night! No! No! No! And everyone's like this.
Starting point is 00:07:21 Everyone freezes. Will there be violence? Right now? I need my medicine. I have to, I get probably, I probably have about five prescriptions, do the math. I won't say which ones they are. And sometimes you get a prescription,
Starting point is 00:07:37 they go, would you like to talk to the pharmacist? And you go, all right. And they kind of meand you over. What are you doing, Dana? Got any questions? No, I've taken it daily for 40 years you over. How you doing, Dana? Got any questions? No, I've taken it daily for 40 years, but how are you doing, sir? What questions would I have?
Starting point is 00:07:52 Hey, have you been going up any at the comedy store lately? Like, oh, these questions. He has a CSM for you. Oh, yeah. Well, the thing is, I'm at a level of so-called fame that I can wander around a mall, wander around places with nothing, and then all of a sudden someone just goes,
Starting point is 00:08:09 hey, I love the church light. I literally get scared. I jump. I forget that I was on TV. Yeah, yeah. That's funny, yeah. You sure got a lot of fans out there, I'll tell you that. My pharmacist goes, do you know how to take these pills?
Starting point is 00:08:26 I go, for a while I've been putting them in my mouth and then drinking water with them. Is that still worth it? And he's like, yeah, you could do that. That's one way to go. My guy picks up the bottle, shakes them near his ear and goes, hey, do you really need these? Really?
Starting point is 00:08:43 Yeah. Okay, now we're playing tennis. What else does your guy do? I go, like if you have something that like, if you have medication you have to take every day, I like when a guy goes, you can get 30 of these. I go, I don't want to come here. I have to come here all the time.
Starting point is 00:09:01 Like just give me stuff that I don't have to keep fucking coming back. Like, you, the fucking great lady that does it to you. Oh. Oh, you want, I'm gonna have to call Dr. Chay. The doctor. Oh. Here's the thing that happens. So, your doctor calls it in, you want one a day,
Starting point is 00:09:20 so it's 30 for a month. Then you get the thing, you bring it home, and it's 30 for a month. Then you get the thing, you bring it home and it's 15. And then you go back and they go, oh, the insurance wouldn't cover it. It was an extra dollar 38. So we only gave you 15. Exactly. I go, here's $10. This will cover the next five years of that. Just give me all of them. What's sleepier? We gave you a 28.
Starting point is 00:09:49 Well, if you get sleep medication, it's like a bank heist with certain people. It's like, okay, that's your one. I don't know if it's ready. All right, I'll wait. Okay. Dude, they tell me cough syrup, same thing. They go, why don't you wait over there
Starting point is 00:10:07 while we push the fucking bank robbery buzzer so the cops can, I'm like, I need cough. It's coding, I'm sorry. There are people that need things for things still. It's not just abuse. Rather than just chugging codeine. Yeah, I love, by the way, side note, I love it. But I had bronchitis and pneumonia and the guy goes,
Starting point is 00:10:26 they don't like us to just give this away. I go, I'm the exact person that needs it, you fuck. Like give it to me. He's like, they don't like us just throwing this shit around. I go, well, I'm not little Wayne, I need it. I'm not putting it with my Slurpee. Like I need to, I mean, I will. Anyway.
Starting point is 00:10:43 It's just like a weird. Anyway, pharmacies are funny. Pharmacies are funny, I will. Anyway. It's just like a weird. Anyway, pharmacies are funny. Pharmacies are funny. Got it. Cut. We have too much to talk about. I will say I have to plug my gigs because I'm going to Denver.
Starting point is 00:10:52 I wanna give you permission. Let's have an edit. Go ahead, David. So you don't have to bring it up. Where can your fans see you in the ensuing months? Oh, Danny, you know, this is hard to talk about. I know you don't wanna showboat or promote, but please just do it. Oh, I've got know this is hard to talk about. I know you don't wanna showboat or promote,
Starting point is 00:11:05 but please just do it. Oh, I've got the Venetian coming up with Nikki Glaser. I've got Minneapolis, Indianapolis. I've got Hartford, Connecticut, four in Florida. Boise, look at this shit. Oh, my neck of the woods. Seattle, we got Providence, R.I. Oh yeah, we got Kansas City.
Starting point is 00:11:31 Oh, Denver, I'm filming something, so I got two that night. Hey, we. That is- Jeez, I wish I had a map. I can't even keep track of you. October 11th, I think, yeah. Anyway, other than that, that's all good shit.
Starting point is 00:11:40 Denver, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Who, okay, pop quiz. Who wrote the song where the line is, I've been everywhere, man? Is that what he says? I've been everywhere, man? Everywhere, man.
Starting point is 00:11:52 I hear that commercials, I don't know. I know, I don't know. Well, it's like you're like Willie Nelson. I don't even know, I just know, I've been everywhere, man. You're like Willie Nelson. On the road again. Yeah, I know that one. Can't wait to get back to Indianapolis.
Starting point is 00:12:05 Before we get to our... But anyway, go see my friend David. He's a great step. One of the funniest people in the Western hemisphere. You won't be sorry. And we have, my last question is about the Olympics because we got a few stories coming up. Then we have a guest at the end.
Starting point is 00:12:20 What? Oh, we got a guest at the end. Yeah. Yeah, good one. Do, yeah. Do, if it's back, we got a guest at the end. Yeah. Oh, do we? Yeah, good one. Do we, yeah. Do we, we can say his name. Should we promote it if this is the first part of this?
Starting point is 00:12:31 Well, they can stick around and figure it out. Okay. Stick around. It is Olympics oriented, or as my friend says, orientated. They're both going through. We're the first podcasts in our quadrant to have the Olympic gold medalist, Cole Hawker. Oh yeah, Cole Hawker.
Starting point is 00:12:51 We are a track nut. We do a deep dive. He's very charming. So listen to that. Stay tuned for that. Yeah, stay tuned. That's in a couple of minutes. Between that great thing though is us doing whatever we do for a few more minutes.
Starting point is 00:13:02 I will say in the Olympics, did you see, we did talk about Snoop, but Flavor Flav is sort of floating around. Love that guy. He's funny. I think they got him because, is his big clock a stopwatch? That would be smart. You know what I mean? Yeah. Go!
Starting point is 00:13:16 He's a modern... Yeah. Go! Ka-ding! Yeah, if he modified it to look like an old fashioned big stopwatch and was timing people, damn, that would have been fantastic. Yeah, and he was hat sideway. Roop! Yeah, and he's it to look like an old-fashioned big stopwatch and was timing people, damn, that would have been fantastic. Standing with his hat sideways.
Starting point is 00:13:27 Yeah, and he's got a little clipboard. Blam! Oops, real gun. And the runners can read the result from 100 yards away. Yeah, while they're running. Okay, I'm doing pretty good. Also, he's very mysterious. He's like, does he have a social security number?
Starting point is 00:13:42 Like, I don't know him because a guy kind of comes out of the woodwork, then he goes away, comes back, not sure if he's rapping anymore or music. I don't know, but everyone loves him. I just go by the premise that there's so much show business that no one knows what anyone's doing. If you told me Flavor Flav just did a European tour, sold out, I'd go, oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:14:03 Okay, yeah. Who keeps track? I mean, you just sold out. I go, oh, okay. Who keeps track? I mean, you just tell people. I should tell people that too. That's a great point because you just don't know. Yeah, he just sold out stadiums and you go. Yeah, oh, I didn't know that, man. So if you were gonna not be David Spade
Starting point is 00:14:18 and name yourself something, what would it be? Five seconds. Spudly Spud. Does it have to be like that? What's your guess? No, that's good, I'd be? Five seconds. Spudly spud. Okay. Does it have to be like that? What's your- No, that's good. I'd be Dana the Do. I'd be Big Dick McGee.
Starting point is 00:14:32 Because that one people want to try to figure it out. Like, is it true or is it just saying that? My, mine would be, it won't fit easily. Mine would be, bring some WD-40. Okay, we'll do poo later, but If I was Flavor Flav, would you, at a certain point, I'd get like an aluminum clock. It's too heavy on my neck. I couldn't pull that thing around, you know. I'd have the money to get a solid gold clock.
Starting point is 00:14:58 He does have money, but. Oh, yeah. Well, please answer me this and tell me this. Flavor Flav must have a deal with Kool-Aid. Kool-Aid, flavor it, flavor Flav Kool-Aid. Oh, yeah. I want apple, I want cherry. How about Flavor Flav?
Starting point is 00:15:17 What flavor? What flavor? What flavor Flav do you want? You'll find out later. Yeah, that's it, okay. For a seven-year-old, I want flavor, flavor, because it just sounds different. Okay, I thought you were going to say Timex,
Starting point is 00:15:32 like he should get a deal with a clock. Oh, I was going by the nickname. That nickname has nothing to do with time. He should have been called theHumanTimeMachine.com. Flavor, flavor is a cool name. That's a smart one to get. It's hard to get. Yes.
Starting point is 00:15:46 Yes it is. Okay, let's go do some headlines because we got to get to our guests. So I don't want to waste too much time. Let's do it. Let's do it. With Smartwater's pure crisp taste, there's nothing to overthink.
Starting point is 00:16:04 So while you may be spiraling over double texting your crush, whether your skincare routine is working because you look the same or is doing nothing because you look the same in whatever the heck red light therapy is, it's definitely not that. Don't overthink how you hydrate. Life's full of choices. Smartwater is a simple one. All right, give us anything. I have these things and we'll just say,
Starting point is 00:16:34 okay, before they start, let me see. Is this about the Olympics? They wouldn't do us like that. I'm clearly hallucinating right now. It looks like an Olympic. Okay, let's just see what it is. We'll figure it out. Sound up.
Starting point is 00:16:46 We're gonna talk about this when I calm down, but what just happened? I know that they did not advertise this as confirmed musical guests, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Snoop Dogg and Billie Eilish, and then have those three artists zoom in on a Zoom meeting and put it on the screen, the small screen. I know they didn't do that. I know they wouldn't sell tickets in good faith
Starting point is 00:17:11 to people here in Paris and say, come on and read all these artists and then show a small TV screen of them zooming in. I know they wouldn't do that. I think they're in Malibu, Dana. I think, yeah. They were in LA. Yeah. I love it. I think, yeah. They wouldn't do that to me. They were in LA. I need to, I need to. I love it. I like your attitude. They wouldn't not do this to us. You're selling tickets to a concert
Starting point is 00:17:32 at the end of the Olympics with Red Hot Chili Peppers. And Snoop was it? He's there. Snoop must've got some kind of supersonic jet because he doesn't play. To make sure he's not there for the advertiser. That is a bit of a bamboozle, and I don't like to use that word,
Starting point is 00:17:48 but I think it is. Oh, what? I'm clear what she just said. So they said, like I'm going to Def Leppard in a couple weeks with Journey and Steve Miller. So I go to SoFi Stadium, and they put up a big screen, and they're doing a show in Paris, and I'm watching that. That's what happened.
Starting point is 00:18:09 They were all here in America doing the concert, and they saw it on a Zoom call. It's like, oh, on a Zoom, okay. She goes, I'm watching a Zoom meeting with all these people, like, and a huge screen, like... Well, I got to give it to you, mama! Which is what it was like. Give it away, give it away, give it away now.
Starting point is 00:18:28 I'll continue. And Dr. Dre, I thought it was very cool from just someone watching it on the TV. Yeah, I mean, I thought it was LA, but I didn't know they said it was there. Okay, next one. That's good, she has an art. No, that's crazy.
Starting point is 00:18:43 Funny. Crazy. Okay, next one. That's good. She has an arm. That's crazy. Funny. Crazy. Okay, this is... Oh, I wouldn't change. This is something about the Olympics. Oh, this is a cringe moment. This girl hurt her leg in the Olympics. Yes. And they come up to help her.
Starting point is 00:18:58 Now watch how it plays out. Okay, her legs hurt. Someone help her. She's hurt, she's down. There's two people now. Coach maybe helping up. She's hurt. She's down. There's two people now. Coach maybe helping her. Talking to her. Talking to her.
Starting point is 00:19:08 Might be a fencer. This guy's helping. They need to let her sit down. They need to get her out of there. Three people. Four people. Thank God a guy brings a chair, tells the coach, put her in this chair. Oh, for me? Thank you.
Starting point is 00:19:21 The uninjured man sits in the chair to illustrate how to sit in a chair. Yeah, maybe that's what he said later. I was just showing her how to sit. Why would the healthy guys sit in the chair? It must have been illustrative. They tap on the shoulder, he goes, oh, thanks man, I'm wiped out.
Starting point is 00:19:38 Oh, you mean for the broken leg? Okay, no, I'm sorry. It was so quick. I just looked so comfortable. He had bright yellow pants on, he couldn't resist lowering his butt into a chair. God, if Spade saw a chair and I was standing for more than eight minutes, I'd be fucking...
Starting point is 00:19:52 Give me that, God. Your thing is you're always trying to stand. You're always trying to stand up. And when I'm standing, I need to sit. That's what a bad neck will do for you. You just want the other one all the time. I think you gotta go to Rite Aid. You need some medicine for that. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:20:10 That guy had to go. He goes, I gotta get going, man. I go, he goes, do you have a... I go, what about me? And he goes, are you on a TV show right now? I go, I mean, I've been... He goes, not right now. I go, no, he goes, I gotta go. You don't need to go. I gotta go. There's your thumbnail. That's another good thumbnail.
Starting point is 00:20:28 With the straw. I don't have any. My eyebrow shoots up. I gotta get some, I gotta tame that down with some gorilla glue or something. Jeez. Well, I'm on it. Okay, next one. I'm working our way to the guest.
Starting point is 00:20:40 Oh, this is funny. Wait. Oh, that the average Olympian in the Olympics is prettier than Miss Universe. I mean, Miss Universe is very pretty, but I thought this was funny. Wait. Oh, that the average Olympian in the Olympics is prettier than Miss Universe. I mean, Miss Universe is very pretty, but I thought this was funny. Miss Universe and the average Olympian. Well, I would say, and I don't know whether it's age-related,
Starting point is 00:20:54 but there seemed to be a disproportionate amount of extremely attractive athletes. And so, you know, I'll say from Heather's listening, you know, from the female perspective and the male perspective, it seems like you're winning the life of lottery. Yes, you're going to be super talented. You're going to the Olympics.
Starting point is 00:21:17 You're going to get paid millions of dollars. And you're incredibly good looking. Oh, okay. Thank you. Yeah, that's right. And there was pretty split that equal amount of female, male, great-looking people. It was more the great-looking Olympics. It was everyone was like, all the runners, all the dudes, I'm like, this guy's a stud.
Starting point is 00:21:34 One guy had a headband, he's cool. I'm like, God dang, they get it all, I guess. No, I got their sunglasses, they're taking them off. You know, I don't think they're taking them off. They're taking off his glasses, you know, what's up? You know, I don't think they did it intentionally, but someone put up the sign Orgy Village, and they took it down instead of Olympic Village.
Starting point is 00:21:53 Oh, yeah, let's roll a clip from fucking Olympic Village. Uh... You got more thumbnails than a thumbnail factory. I'm just trying to keep it live over here in my fucking Beirut wall. There it is. Does my hair make you happy? My hair isn't bad today, but it's a little messy.
Starting point is 00:22:16 It looks like I have some. You know what it is? It's untamed. Yeah, my face looks like I slept on it for a couple days, but it's waking up. It'll wake up in a couple when I get to the picture. I try not to look at my picture. I'm just focusing on you.
Starting point is 00:22:30 I took all the mirrors down. This is my only mirror. When I'm on Zoom, I go, what the fuck? Mm-hmm. Okay, next one. We're getting there, Dana. We're kind of... That's all right.
Starting point is 00:22:41 Oh, this is what you do when you're rich. Mark Zuckerberg made a statue of his wife in his backyard. Wow. Money to burn productions. It's gigantic. It's, she's like a... What is she tied up in kelp? An Adonis or something or something.
Starting point is 00:22:55 That's her hair or something. I'm gonna call it 10 million for that. I would do it for him for 10 million. I'd find some old green statue from like Avatar, you know. Did you see that Zuckerberg, you know, we had the robotic kind of Chia Pet hair and sort of the glycerin face all smooth. And now he's got all kind of frothy hair
Starting point is 00:23:21 and is wearing casual clothes. He's having a midlife crisis at 30, 80. Wants to go back to 17. Go ahead. I want to look better all the time and I want to get enough money to where I look great. And everyone just goes, what happened? I go, I don't know. Nothing.
Starting point is 00:23:36 I just look way better. Well they got all kinds of stuff. That ship he has, that huge monster, 3,000 foot warship. Zuckerberg or Bezos. Yacht. It's all the same. They go out and each one has a pharmacy on it probably,
Starting point is 00:23:53 you know, Pilate studio and a surgical center and urgent care. They, and a small army and a helicopter. Yeah, helicopter repair shop. Bowling alley, all the accoutrements. Some of my buddies went on those yachts this year and they're like, you wouldn't believe it, it's unreal. They just like famous people walking around
Starting point is 00:24:13 because they get paparazzi, you know? Well, I put this out, any Saudi prince that wants David and I to come to their party and just hang out and be charming, we're there. And we'll do a 20-minute set at night. We'll double. We're, we're, we're there. 20 minutes set at night. We'll double. We'll do a 20 minute set. We're not cheap, but we're less than Beyonce.
Starting point is 00:24:33 Yeah. Okay. Next one. Okay. We're like a real professional show. Okay. Is this funny? Let me see.
Starting point is 00:24:39 It is kind of. That's not okay. That scared me. I don't know what this is. Okay. Here's a video. A kid with his. Oh, he eats this fucking hamburger.
Starting point is 00:24:47 Oh, gross! That's how wide he can open his mouth. That's like an anaconda eating an elk. Is that real? I mean, no, so people listening to this, he opened his mouth like alien in the first and second alien. He had a second set of teeth.
Starting point is 00:25:07 I mean, he dislocated his jaw. You could have put a football in his mouth. Exactly. What? What? I used to watch porn in the eighties and I'd see some guy with some mongo wang and then some girl with dislocated jaw
Starting point is 00:25:19 like an anaconda go... Oh, no. And I go, is this even possible? Maybe I was mixing that up with a nature channel. I don't know. I won't even go there. I don't even know what to say. What color am I?
Starting point is 00:25:37 That wall is dark green behind me. So that shows you everything. I have blinds and things and. Go ahead. Okay. Next one. I'm the color of my room. It's all brown.
Starting point is 00:25:50 You look good though. You look crispy. Okay. Crispy. Oh, this is a good Farley. Okay. You know, Farley, uh, was on Leno. I don't think I saw this clip when it happened.
Starting point is 00:26:00 Yeah. I went on with him a couple of times, but this one, Shannon Doherty was on SNL. She was great. It's super striking, very pretty, lots of fun. Did a great sketch with Sandler called the Denise show. Was just very game. So they're somehow on as on Leno together and of course Farley interrupts her the whole time and it's hysterical. Yes, Chris and I did Saturday Night Live together. Oh, sure, that's right, of course. And we had so much fun and I thought he was such a nice guy and then I ran into him much
Starting point is 00:26:32 later at a True Lies premiere and he had no idea who I was. That's not true! I was blind drunk! Blind drunk? I faced it! I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that.
Starting point is 00:26:48 I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that.
Starting point is 00:26:56 I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that.
Starting point is 00:27:04 I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that. cooking you like doing the whole cooking thing so yeah oh fucking funny what a talk show masterpiece of Farley just can't stop screaming and maybe wasted. His scream and the rhythm of it, it's like, Kenison had one and Chris had his own. The voice is so good, that deep, crazy voice. It's rough and raw and the commitment of it. It's just, you can't not laugh. I have to say, every, almost every girl who on that show had a somewhat of a crush on him
Starting point is 00:27:48 because he was so hilarious. He'd grab you and he'd go back and he'd get nervous and grab you and then yell something stupid and feel stupid, but couldn't take it. Oh yeah, he was always undercutting himself and self-deprecating and he'd kind of lean down and that's Dana the lady. Hey. Grab you.
Starting point is 00:28:05 Oh. Choke you. Hey, lady. Choke you to death. Never called me Dana. Never called me Carby. Just lady. There's the lady.
Starting point is 00:28:15 Yeah. Oh yeah. He would be great around. Oh, anyway. Okay, go ahead. We'll get too sad. Okay, go ahead. What's the next one?
Starting point is 00:28:24 Okay. Oh. Oh, this is the one I told you about last week. Okay, we can end with this one. This was Suni Lihue, I think is so adorable. And she's talking to herself, but we couldn't do it. We found it. This is the one I was talking about. She's going to do an Olympic... A lip reader says what she's saying. As she's nervously waiting to do the pommel horse
Starting point is 00:28:44 or the balance beam, right? Yeah. Or the floor. Okay, you got this. Last one. Listen for the beat. Get this one over. It'll be good.
Starting point is 00:29:02 One thing at a time. Isn't that cute? Wow. That gave me chills. Me too. I don't know why I liked it so much. I thought she's just thinking and she's got the whole stadium. Like, and she's like, it's everything boils down to that one Olympic run
Starting point is 00:29:20 you're doing, whether the floor, whatever, but. Too cute. I think, you know, like with golf,, whatever, but too cute. Too cute. I think, you know, like with golf, you have five minutes between things. They have so much time to wait. It's not like basketball, go, go, go instinct and to try to be in the moment, not get in your head,
Starting point is 00:29:37 try not to try it is the fucking Olympics. That's why it was sometimes hard to watch, you know? The only thing that matters because the heartbreak is too, you know? The only thing that matters, because the heartbreak is too, you know, it's too rough. You don't win, you don't... And you're like, I did all this. And yeah, and it just that for us sitting on a couch
Starting point is 00:29:54 having a beer, we're just like in awe of the bravery to put yourself in a position to fuck up in front of a billion people. So you'd already wanna give them a hug anyway, but I think that some of them do have sports therapists that they work with, and I think that there's a postscript if it didn't go well, so it'd be like, okay. Sure.
Starting point is 00:30:16 It didn't go well, you fucked up. No, I'm kidding. No one really thinks beyond the Olympics. I mean, like, that's the goal. So even the next day, you're like, I won, I didn't win. Am I gonna do the four years and I'm gonna try again or do I start to figure out my life now? And like, your family, everybody's either there
Starting point is 00:30:36 or there's parties in the States watching you and they want you to win so bad. Feel like you're letting them down if you don't. Well, let's introduce, why don't you introduce our boy because you turned me onto this guy in the Olympics. Yeah. And tell the crowd about it. If you watch the Olympics and watch track and field,
Starting point is 00:30:56 there were some amazing things. And one of them was the 1500 meter final with Cole Hocker, Jacob Ingebrigtsen. It was an amazing race and Cole Hawker scored an upset and won the gold medal. And he's still kind of flying high from it and trying to process what just happened to him. And I'm kind of a track nut, ran in high school,
Starting point is 00:31:20 a little bit in college. And so it was fun to interview him and get some interesting insight into how do you, how do you manage the pressure? How do you train yourself to sprint when you're exhausted? There's a lot of pain involved. So it was a charming, charming person and enjoyed it. Enjoy it yourself, David.
Starting point is 00:31:41 Yeah, that's it. I thought he was a super cool dude. Yeah, absolutely. Great guy. Even though we haven't interviewed him yet, we're about to right now. Okay. Yeah, David. Yeah, that's it. I thought he was a super cool dude. Yeah, absolutely. Great guy. Even though we haven't interviewed him yet, we're about to right now. Okay. Yeah, yeah, I can't wait to hear what he says. Yeah. With Uber Reserve, good things come to those who plan ahead. Family vacay? Reserve your ride as soon as you book your flights.

Starting point is 00:32:50 Well, first of all, congratulations. I've seen a few of your interviews online and stuff, so I understand where you're at. I just wanted to say as a fan, because I'm a track nut, you know what a track nut is? One thing, because I have a little email chain with a brother, both brand track, we're all from pre, we're all from Frank Shorter era. And during the Olympic trials, they had a shot of you in full stride. And I thought to myself, whoa, he's running different. Something's going on.
Starting point is 00:33:20 The authority or the arm carriage or something. So in the thing, everyone's a Kerr versus Ingebrigtsen. We're going back and forth. I said, Cole, I said, watch him, Dark Horse. I didn't think you would kick. I knew you had to kick. Can he kick off 247? Yes, he can.
Starting point is 00:33:39 That was new information for Inger Britson. He can kick off 247. Even blows my mind. Yeah, I think that was new information for everyone, including myself. I knew based on my trials race, the way I ran it, I had a 330 race. We're getting into the nitty-gritty, but it was a 330 race. I totally understand. A 52 last lap. Go ahead. Exactly. And with the 52 last lap, that's far from evenly split. And so I knew that my PRs weren't equivalent to what I thought I could run. And then, yeah, I knew I was going to have to have
Starting point is 00:34:19 the rest of my life. But it was definitely a shock, a big shock to, I feel like the world, but not as big of a shock to me. Not to me, not to me, but I, the pace shocked me, you know, that he would take it out at 54. By the way, let me just quickly do for you, cause you'll only, we'll get it, my, my, is it Jacob or Jacob? Jacob Incabritsen? I think Jacob, yeah. my, my, uh, is it Jacob or Jacob? Jacob Incabritsen. I think Jacob.
Starting point is 00:34:46 Yeah. Jacob. Sorry. Impression. How did you think the race went? Sorry. You're the only person. I thought it was a good race.
Starting point is 00:34:59 It, um, it was a fast race, you know, um, maybe too fast. Um, but we go back, we go back, you know, maybe too fast. But we go back, we go back. You know, he speaks in three word sentences. All right. And now here's Josh Kerr, Sean Connery as a Disney fan. Ooh, the hits. I saw him, he looked at me and I knew I had him. I had a lot left, but apparently not enough left
Starting point is 00:35:26 for that little upstart. You know? That's a spot on. And Jared Yagoose is just enthusiasm. He's just like, he's an awesome race, man. That guy just exudes joy. And you're kind of, you're like, you know, you don't put a lot out there
Starting point is 00:35:46 as you keep it close to your vest, but you are kind of like the silent assassin. Yeah, well, those are all, for as niche as impression that those are, those are spot on. 28 people are having a joyous moment. Here's my impression. The pole vault that hit his wiener. Picture this.
Starting point is 00:36:06 This is the bar. I'm gonna stand up for this one. No, I'm kidding. This is brilliant. No, even if the bar's this big, mine still doesn't look big enough. So I can't even do the impression. Spade was obsessed with the wieners hitting,
Starting point is 00:36:19 pole vaulters hitting, and then the pro. But I have a real question for Cole. All right. This is, well, one is, I only have two, because Dana's a super runner. That's one question. You could have two questions. When I'm watching, because Dana told me to watch this,
Starting point is 00:36:34 because he's a fan of yours, and he says, watch this race. And toward the end, I mean, you're sort of in the back. You come up, I'm putting it in real layman's terms. You come up, you're getting closer. Closer to the front. Everyone follow me? Striking distance. There's a difference. Striking distance.
Starting point is 00:36:52 It looks like you're gonna make a move, and you got boxed out a little bit, and then you faded back, and then you saw like a hole, and you came on the inside, but I thought that fade back, it's too late to do one of those fade backs, because you were giving it something, and I thought, fade back, it's too late to do one of those fade backs because you were giving it something. And I thought, oh fuck, there's nothing left.
Starting point is 00:37:09 And then you pushed on the inside, I was like, oh my God, is that what happened? You pushed on the inside and then you kind of caught them off guard or something, I don't know what happened. Yeah, yeah, I mean, that's why I think the race is like resonated so well because everyone can understand it. It wasn't, it was just a really good race. Like even if you don't know anything about track, but yeah, I ended up passing on the inside,
Starting point is 00:37:32 which like I was talking to reporters directly after the race and I actually didn't remember if I passed on the inside or the outside, which kind of surprised me that I didn't remember. It just showed me that it was instinctual, I guess. You were in some other place. Yeah, yeah, it was crazy. Interesting part for me is that it, just cause this is, I gotta say, I think the greatest 1500 meter world-class race
Starting point is 00:37:58 in Olympic final. I think for layman, I mean, it was, I had people in the room, not track fans, going crazy. But it seemed like Ingle Brakesson was a little bit sharing lane one. And so you ran up him a little bit. So you broke stride. So technically, you're a 327.40, probably, without that. I know you've thought of it.
Starting point is 00:38:20 Oh, yeah. I thought of it. So then, for people to understand, it's the worst thing can happen to it was like a half break, a full break. You don't get the gold. It was just like a quarter or half break, but still, and then he drifted maybe thinking he was going to make a move on on Kerr. And then you got that little squeeze and then yeah, the whole thing happened like that, but it was just mind blowing to watch. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:45 I mean, I did notice after the fact and coming down from everything, I'm like, there's still. Half second in there, um, which is saying a lot considering it was about a three second PR already. Um, but yeah, those little, anything stopping, especially at the end of a 1500, at that pace can be detrimental. You know, I just wanted to ask you this because there's always winning the race and there's winning the Olympic gold, but now you walk around as a 327.65 guy and that is its own high.
Starting point is 00:39:22 Of course it's not, the gold is the goal, but it's a trip to have a PR for a world-class athlete to PR that big. Three seconds is an eternity. And you did it in the Olympic final. I don't know, what are you, I'm doing all the talking and you're nodding, but go ahead, what do you think? No, yeah, I mean, that's, how you're breaking it down
Starting point is 00:39:44 is kind of the same know, the same thoughts I'm having about it. But I guess like, again, I knew a fast time was coming. I mean, sub 330 has been my goal since 2021. So in the last Olympics, I ran 331. And I was, you know, the goal is always to win. Uh, but then in the back of my mind, being sub 330 is, um, you know, that's like a league of its own. And for anyone that's not a super narrative track, you know, it's sub four,
Starting point is 00:40:20 which is a big deal in the mile. Um, and then the 1500, the equivalent to sub four is probably around. Three 43. Yeah. Um, for the 1500, um, just to kind of give some perspective and on, you know, sub 330 is a, I don't know how many guys have done it, but it was a big goal of mine and, uh, the past two seasons were interrupted training by, uh, injury, um, which, you know, that's half the battle in this sport.
Starting point is 00:40:53 And, um, The year after the Olympics, 2022, uh, the previous one, uh, I was sidelined, you know, completely for about a month and a half. Um, and that was leading up to the US trials. And so I didn't even make the US team for that year was a world championships. And then the next year was another world championships in Budapest, which is this past year. And I had to start my training about two and a half months later than I would have liked to with some Achilles stuff. And so what I'm saying is like these past two years have been interrupted. And I made it to the world final last year with very truncated training.
Starting point is 00:41:34 And I just was like, if I can get this uninterrupted, I know how good I can be. And that was just the name of the game this whole season. And I, you know, we it's pretty much day by day, week by week and, and track and field and trying to stay injury free. And I kept stacking those days and weeks and I made it to the U S trials. And I was like, I told myself, I've done everything I could to get here. Um, I've stayed injury free. And so let's see what I got.
Starting point is 00:42:00 And I had the race of my life. And then the same story can be said about the Olympic finals. And just, I think that big jump in time, um, again, as, as a shock on paper, but, uh, I knew like with this uninterrupted training, I was better than I've ever been by a long shot and that those times were coming, you know, the past three years, I haven't missed a workout and it's just not really an option at this level. It's not, I don't want to get out of bed today. But the options are those little fine details where it's easy to skip those, especially if you have a great workout
Starting point is 00:42:37 and you just want to lay in bed. But the smart thing to do is go get a massage, go have a really good meal, all that stuff. Well, your new best friend Ingebrigtsen, he talks about overtraining and running your race before the race, which is also a disease that can happen. You're just training, you're not tapering as well, and you wanna train, train, train.
Starting point is 00:43:01 So you must have come in very, very rested. You peaked at the trials and then you had like a few weeks, you know. I don't know, is this fascinating to anybody? Because to me it is. I want to go back to the race for a second though. What Josh Kerr said, he said the pace was so fast. He said, I went to sleep.
Starting point is 00:43:19 Like he literally, and he lost his hearing going out in 151. So I don't know if you'd go into try to go, did he mean he went into a zone, but he said, it was so fast, I just decided to go to sleep. And he's running 54 second pace. Yeah, I mean, you feel it for sure, but I feel like his game plan, which was pretty odd,
Starting point is 00:43:44 is probably just don't give, uh, you know, Ingebrigtsen anything, not, don't give him a centimeter. And, and he could having that person, that race plan and Ingebrigtsen immediately go into the front. He could probably flip off his brain and, uh, yeah, just his job was to not let him make any separation. And leading that race, I mean, for people who don't understand, I mean, it does take more energy.
Starting point is 00:44:10 So you kind of, if you're watching it, you know Inger Britson's one of the all-time greats, but you're like, huh, I've never seen him do this. It was a little warm, a little breezy, and it gets very lonely. I don't care who you are up there, you know, in the front. Yeah. Setting the pace. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:28 Yeah, exactly. And like, I mean, everyone is in agreement. Like it takes like a lot of balls to go and do that with that caliber of. He's kind of, he's in a good way, kind of crazy. But he's in a wonderful way. Exactly. Cole, are you allowed to wear any shoes you want? He's in a good way, kind of crazy, but in a wonderful way. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:44:46 Cole, are you allowed to wear any shoes you want? I think as a regular person watching, is it have to be a certain brand or can you just say these are my favorite running shoes or do you have to switch to some Olympic shoes? I'm sponsored by Nike. Oh, okay. And that's what, is that what it was there? Yeah. And so at the Olympics, at least like team USA is sponsored by Nike. But they say you can wear whatever shoes you want.
Starting point is 00:45:12 No, that's good. That's good. Yeah. They're not going to mess with everyone's little. I thought they would. I would be like, oh my God, here's your shoes. And you're like, I like these old ones, whatever they are that really work for me. Because it's so, like you said, everything matters. So you have to be comfortable. You have to feel like you're running, I like these old ones, whatever they are that really worked for me. Cause it's so, like you said, everything matters. So you have to be comfortable. You have to feel like you're running the right stuff. Okay. That's a good question.
Starting point is 00:45:30 That was a good question, Spade. That was really, that was really good. I have a question. Okay. Go ahead. Go ahead. Who's Beetlejuice? Don't ever say that name. Beetlejuice.
Starting point is 00:45:49 I'm serious. If you say that name three times, really bad stuff is gonna happen. Beetlejuice. Beetlejuice. Beetlejuice. The juice is loose. On September 6th, the wait is over. Thank you all for coming to this very special occasion.

Starting point is 00:46:38 That's the powerful backing of American Express. Visit amex.ca slash ymx. Benefits vary by card, terms apply. This is another super dumb one. Why is it the 200? No, no, these are good, because I'm sowing the weeds. The 400, the 800, and not the 1600.
Starting point is 00:46:54 That is a good question, because I myself had to look that up. I like that. It does sound like an odd number. Because I didn't know what it was. I'm like, how far is that? It doesn't seem to evenly... It doesn't make sense. The best answer I could find... Um, was that they wanted to do, yeah, four laps,
Starting point is 00:47:17 but to start on a straightaway. But the 800 doesn't do that. The 400... So that really doesn't check out. But that's the answer. That story, we already had our fact checkers. I know, because if you're born under the mile, you're always trying to equivocate to a mile, like, or even a metric mile, be 600 meters.
Starting point is 00:47:37 And I figured out the pace code was going, if you could have sustained it for another hundred meters, your sort of metric mile would have been like 340 or something. Yeah. Something crazy, you know. What happened to yards? Did they go away? I mean, is the US the only one that cares about yards anymore? Because they really are gone.
Starting point is 00:47:55 In the pole vault, they go or high jump. It's 2.641. I got to do on my phone. That doesn't sound high to me. 2.6... I want something. Yeah, I want to hear eight feet. That's doesn't sound high to me. 2.6, something. Yeah, and I want to hear it's eight feet. That's not even three whatevers, you know? Yeah. Hate the metric system.
Starting point is 00:48:12 Yeah, and they go, it's gonna catch on, but that was in sixth grade. So it hasn't quite got on here, but I guess the walls are closing in. Olympics, say again. America don't play. Okay, my next question is... Yeah. Olympics, say again. America don't play. Okay, my next question is. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:28 Okay, so you're famous for your kick. So I'm trying to think the equation. Yeah, why? There's the mental emotional part. There's maybe, maybe just like, say you guys ran a 50 yard dash, you for the big four, you'd probably win that just the quickest fast Twitch fiber, like in just a fresh 50 yard dash, the big four, you'd probably win that,
Starting point is 00:48:45 just the quickest fast Twitch fiber, like in just a fresh 50 yard dash, you would destroy Ingebrigtsen. You're trying to set me up for a headline. Yeah, yeah, I know. We just need you to say that. Sorry, sorry. Say it very clearly.
Starting point is 00:48:59 I wasn't, that's my sense of humor. But I assume you have foot speed, but then you also have to have the VO2 engine. And then the part that's kind of, at least in high school, it would be sort of emotional or a little bit angry, not at any particular thing or the universe, but just like, fuck this. You know, because you're really in pain and you want to get to the finish line anyway. But I don't know, just talk about what makes someone have a kick like yours?
Starting point is 00:49:27 What is the magic? Is there anything to it or just mostly just I want to kick? Yeah. I think like going back and seeing my form kind of develop, it's been pretty telling. Like, the goal for so many races that my coach or the plan, I guess, is just to be there with 200 meters. Because you know, I found out and my coaches found out that I'm going to do anything. I'm going to turn my form to shit if I have to just to get to line first, which is not ideal.
Starting point is 00:50:03 But if you look at my high school videos and my college videos, even finishing a race, my form's all over the place. I'm going side to side. And the idea is to keep everything moving straightforward. And just seeing that tells me, I don't know, something in my brain flips where I'll do anything in my power to get there. And as I've gotten stronger and fitter, my form has followed something in my brain flips where I'll do anything in my power to get there.
Starting point is 00:50:25 And as I've gotten stronger and fitter, my form has followed and I've been able to stay aligned. And that's also helps you go faster if you can do that. I do think that, and I observed that myself because I watched the race a few times and Inger Bredsen has his certain form and Josh and you have your certain form. But then I do think it's okay in the last 10 or 15 meters to kind of go a little crazy
Starting point is 00:50:50 and even go outside your zone a little bit because it seemed like that you and Kerr were just neck and neck and then okay. And then you just kind of ran in a different way. You just, it was almost like, I have to get to the line first. And Kirst stayed in his great form, Inger Britson, incredible running form.
Starting point is 00:51:12 I think that's part of, part of the secret of being willing maybe the last 10 meters just to like go a little crazy. And don't worry about your form. Just get there first, you know? Yeah, yeah. I think there's something to that. And can even see the other American, Yardena Goose. His form, he's fluid and looks good in the race, but when it comes down to the
Starting point is 00:51:36 last 10 meters, he's got something where he can thrust his body forward or whatever. He's always been able to just like get those last five, 10 meters and he almost got silver doing that. So like, yeah, both those guys keeping really good form or actually losing ground, you know, compared to me and- Yeah, you guys just went kind of crazy. And yeah, he does have that. How much did you win by?
Starting point is 00:51:59 A billionth of a second, you know. No, you actually had a pretty good mark. It's pretty small, this Olympics. It's been pretty small, a lot of these. What was the second place? I'm not sure on the exact. 8-0, 327.80, and you were 6-5. He doesn't deal with second place.
Starting point is 00:52:15 Yeah. We just call it not the gold medalist. It's first or last. You mean the non-gold medalist. You're talking, you asked me a question about the non-gold medalist. You're talking, you asked me a question about the non-gold medalist in this range. You're gonna have to call someone else. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:30 What is, and this is off the subject, but I stupidly thought Olympic Village was like as big as a Motel 6, but it's gotta be huge. Like there's so many people. Like how big is that housing and are there rules? Yeah. It blew me away. Like, because I figured this out and I went to Tokyo as well and I had no concept of...
Starting point is 00:52:56 Yeah, I thought it'd be like, kind of a couple of hotels. Like a hotel. Yeah, I didn't even think about it. Yeah. Yeah, but these... It seems like it's the same, like, almost copy and pasted, but they have it figured out to where they throw out these buildings and they're like the most bare-bone Yeah, you sleep on pizza boxes, is that true? It's true. Yeah. Yeah, I think there's 10,000 athletes in total. So imagining yeah, like it is like, there's at least 10 buildings that are each,
Starting point is 00:53:31 you know, like, oh, that's way more than I thought. Yeah. So it is like a little village. It's like a city. Yeah. There's no rules. Just get in there and show up at your race. Yeah, I guess so. So how long, like you win the race, you got the American flag and you're out there.
Starting point is 00:53:46 How long are you kind of out there? Did you do a full victory lap or you and... Nagoos, how did that, you know, all... How long are you out there celebrating with the flag? Yeah, that's actually a really good question because I finished the race and it's... You know, you don't prepare for after that.
Starting point is 00:54:08 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I was running around and luckily like, yeah, yeah. And there is a, I figured this out that there is like a handler that's his job is to see the top three and tell them what to do. And, you know, luckily the first people I saw were like, like some of my best friends from college
Starting point is 00:54:35 and they actually had the American flag. And somehow I found them because they were going crazy waving it. And I went over there and got that. And then, yeah, this guy directed me. He's like, you can go this way. And then I started going too far and they're like, whoa, whoa, whoa. I was going into the long jump area.
Starting point is 00:54:56 I didn't get to do a full victory lap. Just like that. He goes too much, too much, too much. Well, I always wanted that. They always seem to run. You've done enough. We know you want to race. Now get in the fucking tunnel. They find a flag.
Starting point is 00:55:09 I'm like, is there a vending machine or is there just someone that's assigned to hand you a flag to your country? Or the little ones go, but the little ones are nice. Yeah, even get a little baby one, get a pin. You got a little pin, anything. And you and Jared are sharing it, kind of, and he was sort of hogging it.
Starting point is 00:55:24 You had to pull it away. Just made that up. Yeah. There, there is usually a like USA track and field person whose job that is. Um, and I'm, I think they want to be to go to them, but again, I wasn't really thinking in that moment and just went to my, my buddies that I saw waving the flag and, you know, luckily it was like, it was super high. They said they went on this whole excursion to find me like a super high
Starting point is 00:55:52 quality flag just in case it would be in that moment. Uh, yeah, but if not, they just leave it in the seats at the bottom. They forget about it. They're like, Oh, he didn't want to. What do we do? It's just, it happens a lot,, oh, he didn't win. What do we do with this? So, it's just not a... That really happens a lot. But no, that shows that they knew you. It's like a Super Bowl hat.
Starting point is 00:56:10 You were a Dark Horse, you were a contender. We're getting the flag for cold, you know, because they're believers that this could happen. Yeah, no, exactly. So, did you cry? Because the Olympics, which I thought were amazing, how much you watched after doing your... I thought they were extraordinary because of the emotion of all of it.
Starting point is 00:56:27 So, I don't remember how you processed that, or when they played the national anthem and the flag goes up. I mean, just the... Just speak to the emotionality. What the hell you just went through. And it was just a few days ago. Yeah. Yeah, I... I kept kind of like waiting, you know,
Starting point is 00:56:48 that night was everything is moving so fast and immediately after the race, it's hype and I'm, you know, not thinking about everything that went into it. And so I'm just like hyper and like happy, excited. Then we go to the medal ceremony and I kind of waiting, like, am I going to, am I going to get emotional? But I, not really, uh, on the, on the medal stand, it was right after the race, which not all the events did, uh, getting the, my metal. And I was more concerned. They weren't right after the race. Oh no. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So that was actually a cool thing. They did that. Um, but I was more concerned with that. They give the, get the tightest shot of your face. If you're on the, on the podium. I remember seeing other athletes, like they're so tight on their face. And
Starting point is 00:57:42 I got my buddy text me. He's like, he's like decent shave job. I don't think that kid had gotten clothes around his face. Jeez, yeah. But I was more concerned with that than anything else. You try to look cool and proud. Exactly, I'm like, what is the correct expression? What's the attitude you wanna have?
Starting point is 00:58:01 Yeah, do you wanna be bawling? That's right, or sobbingbing or just laughing your ass off. Yeah. I'd say like the most emotional I got actually was like, I'm in the airport. I'm not actually going to go back to the States yet because believe it or not, there's more track races, which is crazy. The Diamond League. Yep. Exactly, but I'm in the airport by myself watching like,
Starting point is 00:58:29 like my high school had like a watch party and my, you know, best friend neighbors had a watch party and I'm watching, they have a video of their reaction and I'm like, that's when I kind of get emotional and I'm just by myself, it can actually process what I'm seeing. And yeah, pretty cool. Sure. I would say it's very normal when emotions are so extreme in the moment to kind of, I wouldn't say go numb, but just sort of, you were sort of in shock. It's too much.
Starting point is 00:58:57 Exactly. Yeah. What I wanted to ask you just for yourself, cause what I observe is when the race was so brutal and so violent and everyone went all out, but you came through and it seemed like you recovered just because of the emotion in like three seconds. Did you even go down on your knees or anything?
Starting point is 00:59:17 I mean, I think you went through a lot. What's up? Why don't you lay down? Yeah, that's another thing I thought of like after watching, but it's just the way, yeah, it's almost always like that where your adrenaline just can carry you. And I remember like me and my teammates always talk about how you can tell someone's fitness by the post-race interviews. I didn't get interviewed immediately on the track, but if someone's really fit, it'll be two minutes after the race and they'll have caught their breath. It just like shows the
Starting point is 00:59:49 fitness that you have to be at to be at this level. That's part of it. And the other part of it just like, yeah, the crazy amount of adrenaline. But just winning, the winners seem to always kind of recover faster. Yeah. You know? Yeah, exactly. And... Well, Dana, anything else for this young man who... Oh, by the way, what did you say PR? What did that stand for, by the way? Personal record.
Starting point is 01:00:14 Personal record, okay. Can you tell every story again now? Because now that I know what you're talking about... Now start again, so PR. Um, I'm just curious. These are random things. Have you watched... Cipri Fontaine was this iconic
Starting point is 01:00:27 and if you go to, if you're in the Bowerman track club at Oregon, you know all about him. I'm sure you've watched the 5K from Munich where Prefontaine was 21, you're 23, runs the most charismatic and reckless 5K in history. Have you watched that with British announcers? Okay. I watched it at least a few times a year.
Starting point is 01:00:52 I don't even know how to make sense of it other than Prefontaine, he just ran, I don't know. He spent so much energy passing, he tried to break the world, he's sprinting, he's coming back, he's taking the lead. I mean, and now you've done a race that people are gonna look at, you know? It just sort of, the world's strange how things happen.
Starting point is 01:01:15 Yeah, yeah, absolutely. Yeah, I mean, there's a reason, if you follow the track you've heard of, Prefontaine, he just, yeah, raced like like with passion as cheesy as that sounds, but you're just like, this is what I'm going to do. And if, if it works, then I'm going to know, I gave it everything. And if it doesn't, then that's the same. Yeah. And the British announcers and the British announcers were much better at the Olympics here in America, or there was a British announcer.
Starting point is 01:01:45 But for Pre-Fontaine, when it's the last 50 meters and he's kind of dying, the British announcer literally says, and the chunky American is completely bankrupt. What a great one. The chunky American is completely bankrupt. That he'd hit that wall. And then you look at it later and go,
Starting point is 01:02:04 what a brave race it was. And so it's sort of a badass race, even though he took fourth. He kind of won the moment, you know, somehow. But anyway, that's very inspiring. But I just want to ask you one more question. Why did you agree? Because when you won the race,
Starting point is 01:02:18 and they said, who can we have a Superfly? Can we get Timothee Chalamet? No, can we get Cole Hawker? And I thought it was be a joke. Like there's no way you were gonna be able to have the time or the energy or I've ever heard of these two old guys. But anyway, thanks for coming on. And why did you say yes?
Starting point is 01:02:35 Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I wanted to let you guys know that I'm also a fan of both of you. And I mean, I've watched SNL and all the backlog stuff, I guess, but grew up watching it's back. Have you seen Wayne's world at least show dirt? I have.
Starting point is 01:02:54 Yes, I have actually. Yeah. I'm actually, yeah, I'm a pretty big comedy fan, uh, funny enough. So yeah, my agent sent me, sent me this and he was like, it's pretty cool and unique. And I was like, man, that's crazy. So yeah, thank you buddy. Yeah. Well, we love it. It was great seeing you, Dana Comber and Wayne said, you got to watch this race. I flipped it on. I was like, holy shit. Yeah, you're very charming and you're humble and you're 23.
Starting point is 01:03:19 So I guess stay healthy and we're going to get to watch, we have, you know, four or five great 1500 meter and don't get me started on Hobbs Kessler, who's 21. We just have an amazing, we had three of the top five. We just have some amazing epic battles to go and you have to do them and go through all the pain and we get to watch. But it's, you're still inspired and enjoying the sports and you're looking forward.
Starting point is 01:03:47 Yeah, cause 23 is very, you're not even in your prime. Yeah. We're not in our prime either. You're entering the golden age. Anyway, so thank you so much for coming on and I'll be watching the diamond leagues. Good luck on those. Yeah. Thank you very much.
Starting point is 01:04:05 Yeah, thanks again for having me. Keep up the good work, bud. This has been a presentation of Odyssey Superfly as executive produced by Dana Carvey and David Spade, Jenna Weiss-Berman of Odyssey, Heather Santoro and Greg Holtzman. Hope you liked it. Mmm.
