Starting point is 00:00:00 Hi everyone, this is Jim Jefferies. I'm here with Amos Gill. Welcome to the ATM podcast. Hello Gillie, how are you? Mate, I'm good. I'm in the best city in the world. Your favorite city, New York City. Hey, hey, I'm paying taxes here. Yeah, no, I look, I'm very fond of New York. I'm actually going to be in Chicago this weekend at the Vic Theater recording my special on Friday. So if you're listening to this podcast, it's just come out on Wednesday, there is a preview show on the Thursday that is not sold out and we've just added tickets to the early and late show on Friday.
Starting point is 00:00:37 We can add tickets because we blocked off some sections for cameras and stuff like that and we've all got it set out. So there's about another 50 tickets to each show. So if you wanna come to see a recording of a special, come to the Vic Theatre this Friday or come Thursday to see the preview and you're going to be there. You'll be before me. I'm going to be there. I'm looking forward to that mate. You've done this. This is about as tighter hour as I've ever seen. You've been doing it for a couple years. You need to put this one down
Starting point is 00:01:06 because you could do it in your sleep. I have done. Now also what else have I got coming up Jack? What other big gigs have I got coming up? I'm going to Dubai. If you want to come and see me in Dubai, I'm playing like a 4,000 seat venue so there are tickets available for that. But I'll be coming to Dubai coming up and Durham on the 18th and where else Jack? St Petersburg on the 30th and then on the 31st Orlando Orlando those gigs are actually selling really well so come and see me in Florida and then I'm going to be doing something in Kansas with Dr. Phil. I'm doing the Dr. Phil show, the Adam Ray Dr. Phil.
Starting point is 00:01:48 But still, that's as close as I'll get to the actual Dr. Phil. Man, look at you, Dubai and St. Petersburg in the same run. That's like a Donald Trump dream vacation. Yeah, yeah. St. Petersburg and Dubai. Also, you got any gigs you want to plug? Yeah, yeah. I'm going to Dubai. Also, you got any gigs you want to plug?
Starting point is 00:02:05 I'm going to Toronto and that is May 23, 24. It's the end of my Canada run, which I feel like we were in Canada all year last year with the great Juncker. I go to Canada as much as I physically can. I love the Canadian audience. The best. It's us. It's Australians.
Starting point is 00:02:23 It's American and Australian. Perfect crossover. Snow Australians. That's what I call them. Hey, I can tell you this. We're Desert Canadians and they're Snow Australians. This I went to last night. With Glen... Not with Glenville. With Bill Burr and... Bob Odenkirk. Bob Odenkirk. Yes. Glen Gary. Glen Ross.
Starting point is 00:02:42 That's why I said Glen Ross. It was awesome, man. It was really, really great. And it's always good to see, like, I don't even know Bill, but just watching a comic there. And it took all of my strength not to yell out like, Oh, Billy, theater! Because all you could see in the crowd
Starting point is 00:02:58 was the least Broadway audience in the history of Broadway. It was, if you're in the green room, like the green room, like the bar, it was just dudes in the history of Broadway. It was, if you're in the green room, like the green room, like the bar, it was just dudes in the lobby. It was just dudes in there like, yeah, how long you think this is going to go? Yo, wait, how much is Bill in it? Is he in it the whole time? Wasn't the most theater going crowd ever. My girlfriend was one of the few women in there and she loved it. I loved it. It's one of my favorite shows I've ever seen on Broadway. So it's only competing against, I watched Gypsy last time. So this was a little bit more for me, but it was great. Yeah. Well, yeah, the Gypsies,
Starting point is 00:03:35 which brings us to the homeless people in LA at the moment. I just want to say quickly, get out of the way. Obviously I'm wearing a, this is a retro North Sydney Bears rugby league jersey this is from the New South Wales rugby league this is from the 1990s this is how far back this jersey goes the Bears were kicked out in 1999 and I am happy to report to anyone who follows rugby league in America because Australians already know they are now going to be called the Perth Bears and they will be rejoining the competition in 2027. I've been fighting for this to happen for the last 26 years and I'm very excited. I'm very excited. I would like to live in Perth one day in my life, maybe retire out there. I'm a very, I'm very, I went to university in Perth. I like Perth. You
Starting point is 00:04:21 lived in Perth for a bit, big fan of Perth. I'm glad they got a rugby league team and I'm glad it's the Bears and I want the people of Western Australia to get behind them. I know that there's a few people who are like, oh, fucking taxpayers money and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Well, I tried to invest in it, but the government wanted to take over the job. So don't blame me, but I'll be at any game that I can go to and I'll be watching on the telly from afar and I hope we get some good plays. It's going to be tough.
Starting point is 00:04:44 But you know what? The bears started in 1908 and never bloody won a premier ship in that entire time. So we're starting at the same position. We ended not you never won. Never won. Team has never won a flag. They won like, I think 11 and 12, I think. Right.
Starting point is 00:05:00 Um, because, but that was, there was no grand final. That was just like the Premier League where whoever finished top of the table got right they never won a grand final never won one in my lifetime they got bloody close they almost got in there and stuff like that they broke your heart year after year after year I have a fondness for teams that don't win I follow the Clippers I follow full of I follow the Bears my only team that's like a championship team. You're a Democrat. Yes, I'm a Democrat. My only team that's a championship worthy team is the Dodgers.
Starting point is 00:05:31 But apart from that, I've always gone for the underdogs and the Bears are a very soft spot in my heart. And come on the Bears. And I'd like to thank Billy Moore and Greg Floremo and Daniel Dixon for all the work that they've put in over the years and they've never given up and they've kept on plugging and plugging and Greg Floremo was my hero growing up. When I was a kid, you know when they said, oh, you do something when you're in year five or something, they'd go write a letter to somebody that you admire and someone would write a letter.
Starting point is 00:06:01 I always wrote to Greg Floremo. Right. I wrote to Greg Floremo all the time. I sent him these letters. I never got a letter back. I never got anything Greg Floremo. I wrote to Greg Floremo all the time. I sent him these letters. I never got a letter back. I never got anything back from Greg. Anyway, so I was at the North Sydney Bears, their clubhouse, North Leagues, about a year and a half ago when they were talking about bringing the Bears back. They brought me up there for an interview and I didn't need the interview. I just spoke passionately about the Bears in front of all the, all the old Bears players or, or, all my childhood heroes were there.
Starting point is 00:06:28 And I said, except I don't want to be nice to Greg Floremo because Greg Floremo, I wrote you two fucking letters and you never wrote back to me. Right. And like, I told him off, right? Anyway, I go off to have a piss or something and I come back to my seat and on my table is a little note and it's like this. Hello, Jeffrey. It's such, I really enjoyed your letters. He probably had CTE, the poor bastard. And you're having a go at him for not understanding comprehension.
Starting point is 00:06:57 He still coaches teams and stuff. He was an amazing player. He was one of these guys that would have had a bigger career if there was Laurie Daley, who played his position at the same time. So he did play for Australia, he played for New South Wales, but he was under recognized as one of the greats in my opinion. Greg, don't you think as you talk about this, I don't know a single soul and I'm a big sports person. I can enjoy every sport on the planet. And when you grow
Starting point is 00:07:21 up in South Australia and I was W WA and WA had Western Force rugby union, you know, but our little country, which loves sports, it is weird that AFL and RL divide that we can't just go, I have this team and the rugby and this time the AFL. We kind of, you have to pick your lane for a lot of people, AFL versus NRL. Whereas in America, you kind of pick up, you kind of have a soft spot for a team in every division, whether you give a fuck about this sport or not. There's so many cities in America that if you live in Denver, you follow the Denver Broncos, right? Now there's, there's New York and LA are the exceptions to the rules because we
Starting point is 00:07:56 have two teams, two basketball teams, two football teams, you know, like two baseball teams, both LA and New York have that, right? But if you go to these other cities, if you go to Pittsburgh, you're following the Penguins, you're following the Steelers. This is what you're following. You don't go to school and have arguments, right? Now, if you're following the rugby league, where I grew up was equidistance between North Sydney and Manly. And most of the kids were going for Manly and then I had to go for North Sydney and you'd get into fights in the schoolyard about it.
Starting point is 00:08:26 You know what I mean? My son has problems now being a Clippers supporter because everyone follows the Lakers. But in Australia, as you said, you can't even just pick your team. You have to pick your sport. A code. Yeah. A code. And now soccer's come in a little bit.
Starting point is 00:08:42 Soccer's come in a little bit. And that come in a little bit and that's the only thing that we sort of, that's the one thing about cricket. No, if anyone watches cricket, you'll think, oh, I should follow the Sydney cricket team or something like that. No, no, you follow Australia and that's it. And Australia plays year round, just travels around the world, playing in countries, by the way, which brings us seamlessly into what's going on in Pakistan and India they seem to not be getting along.
Starting point is 00:09:09 They see they should have a cricket match about it and move on you know it would be for the better than of the world I think if there's one thing that the British Empire has taught us is is having ashes like tournament where I don't know what's the disputed area, Kashmir. Yeah, yeah. Make an ash like tournament, but the ashes is the city. Because if you don't know what the ashes is, the biggest cricket tournament is between Australia and England and the trophy is about two inches tall. And it's filled with ashes.
Starting point is 00:09:40 It's a little urn filled with ashes that were burnt down from stumps. It's a long story that we're not going to get into right now. But India and Pakistan, they hate each other. They've hated each other forever. And then they go out and play cricket against each other. It's pretty awesome, really. They still compete in a sport and then bomb each other the next day. It's kind of remarkable.
Starting point is 00:09:58 But like I said, if you thought it was good when we had the Canada America tariff hockey match, Oh yeah. that had some gusto. Right now if they go ceasefire and ride on the battlefield, we play a T20 cricket game. That's fair. That's fairer than whatever else we're doing right now. I don't quite know the ins and outs of what's going on in India and Pakistan, so I don't really want to get involved.
Starting point is 00:10:22 It's hard to know the ins and outs of fucking anything at this point. Don't leave the house. I have a wife who's of Indian ethnicity and I asked her and she didn't bloody know so why should I know? I was facetiming my dad and the news was on the background and I said oh they're dropping bombs on Pakistan right now and he goes you know what my dad said oh that was bound to happen. He's not wrong. I'm like, why? What's going on there? Oh, something always going on there. That was bound happening. It's always been simmering.
Starting point is 00:10:52 You said yes, like a like a Briani simmering away for days. My it's like everything at the moment is is insane. All you've got to distract myself is I go into the world of the news, which is horrific. And then I retreat to sports and listening to you talk about the Bears. I don't know. I'd love to say I'll get behind them because it's your team. But I was the other day, I looked at everything I'm watching.
Starting point is 00:11:21 I don't know if you feel this way at all. I've got AFL teams, I've got English Premier League, Champions League, the Europa League. I've been watching the NBA. I watch the NHL cause I like the Edmonton Oilers. And not only do I like watching the sport, I would say I don't even like watching the sport as much as I like watching the full out to the sport
Starting point is 00:11:38 where I go on like YouTube and watch commentators getting angry about the performance of certain players. So I'm up to on the average day now, six to seven hours of not only the highlights, but analysis. And I've lost my fucking life. This isn't a bad thing. This is K. So my father is in his eighties and his whole life is watching soccer and rugby
Starting point is 00:11:58 league. That's his whole life. He watches like three sporting events every single day, three games, right? Wakes up in the morning and you'll have a Premier League game that he'd recorded from the night before that he hasn't heard of that it's on DVR, starts with that, then watches a bit of rugby league, then watches the news, then watches a bit of rugby league at the end. Right? Football, NRL, NRL. Right? He's happy as fucking shit mate. That's all there is to life. See women will never truly get sports because
Starting point is 00:12:24 they don't understand in the same way that we don't understand the real housewives of fuckface, right? Because you're watching a show that you can watch for the rest of your life. You know how you have a TV program you love? If you're not into sports, you have a TV program you love. You have a TV program for the rest of your life and you can follow the dramas of the highs and lows. And we're not dumb. And a matching outfit. Yeah. I understand that I'm watching a game and it's not important. I understand that quintessentially it's not an important thing that I'm watching. But it is though. It is important because I've made it important.
Starting point is 00:13:00 It's the same way I like collecting sports cards and they made a cardboard and they're worthless. But they are worth something because they're old and they're how the quality of the product or whatever. I do agree though. I used to you know a lot of my really revolutionary left-wing friends from university. They would always say as a big sports fan they'd say Amos this is bred in circuses of the Roman Empire to distract the masses while the elite run the world.
Starting point is 00:13:27 All you do is get angry at watching the ball go around and it's there to distract you because if we didn't have sports, all of these people would choose to direct their anger to inequality or to what's the injustices. And it's like, I sometimes agree because I look at sports analysts and I think like in Australia, Jason Dunstel or David King or you know What's his name in America that everyone likes nice? Stephen Naismith and fucking who's the guy that you like on sports radio? Oh, I listen to Colin Cowhert These dudes
Starting point is 00:14:01 To anyone else he just talks by himself and he's on top 10 and the Pac-12 and this player over here. And really, he's not in the conversation of the greatest of all time. If I have to listen to another conversation, whether who's better, LeBron James or Michael Jordan, I'll be very happy about it because I can listen to that conversation all day. And it's the same conversation going around in a circle. I know more about sports than I do about what's happening in the world. And I'm happy like, it's escapism. If Naismith and Cowherd and all these great, like the talk sport people in the UK breaking down the...
Starting point is 00:14:38 These alpha male men used to be generals on battlefields. But now they're generals in the field of basketball and football. And I really think if their brains were turned to solving the world's problems, we would potentially know more and win more victories because they are the true geniuses of our time. Just watching them analyze, but it's limited to just the court. But that's the, if you watch Shaq and Charles Barkley on that show you're like you're not meant to be doing this in a past life You are meant to be a chief and I will die for you You are a strong man to be an ogre living under a bridge
Starting point is 00:15:17 I'd go to die to those for those dudes man if they were my leader Instead we get the dregs that go into the politics. In any other time, the athletes, like the top tier athletes, the Brady's or whatnot, would be our leaders and would deliver us better outcomes. And that's what I think when I watch sport, I think all these hundreds of thousands of people, like I was walking home from a gig last night in New York and the Knicks won and Tate, Tate and busted out his Achilles that look like in that game. So that might be the end of him. The fucking jubilation on the streets of New York. It is ultimately all we've got. Yeah. Common people. It's all we've got.
Starting point is 00:15:54 My son today is playing a little league playoff game. Loser goes home, which is weird because they're already going home that day anyway. Yeah. It's all in the same zone. I'm looking forward to it more than anything. I've been looking forward to it all week. And I'm talking to him like this, hey, go out there and practice your pitching, practice your hitting. All right, I'm going to throw you some grounders.
Starting point is 00:16:17 I'm going to throw you some grounders. I haven't once asked the cunt to do homework. Of course. Because you don't go in the classroom and watch him. You know what I mean? You're not watching him. If they, if they, you would get your kids, this is how performative of a parent you are, if there was a two-way glass and you could sit in the classroom
Starting point is 00:16:36 and watch him nail an algebraic equation and get a gold star, you'd make him study more because you're like, I fucking watched him. Look at him. Hey, he nailed that presentation but baseball is where you're you are on the line because all the other dads I know what you're thinking you're like look at my fucking son hey well the problem is the other dads can actually train the child up because they've played baseball and they're coordinated and I'm not so I always marvel when he does something athletic because I was so unathletic. But yeah, no, you're right. The other day I said to him, I thought I should
Starting point is 00:17:09 check in on his schooling and I went like this. I went, Hey mate, you have any exams lately? He goes, yeah, we just had the final year exams. Did you? How did you go? I went all right. Oh, good. You know, that was the whole conversation. Well, I'll wait for the report card. What am I going to do? I'll wait and see if the school calls me. He does his homework. He comes home I go have you done your homework and he's like, yep, and that's you know, I don't know that that's the extent of it Well, I tried helping him once okay me and he's man. Okay, so they're making us do something online, right? And it was mathematics and me and his mother his grandmother Who's my
Starting point is 00:17:45 wife's mother so he's step-grandmother right but they're very close those two and him and me and his grandmother he goes I can't log into the thing and I'm not quite sure what I meant to do with these questions and can you come and help me and I was looking at some long division thing and I just I said don't worry about it we'll fucking get it done go watch some tell, don't worry about it. I said, we'll fucking get it done. Go watch some telly. Don't worry about it. Right. Because it was, he'd been working harder. So I filled out his bloody exam, right? Worst mark the cunts ever gotten. Worst mark he's ever gotten in school. Right?
Starting point is 00:18:16 Me, me and the grandmother, we failed. We got like 60% or something. We can't, I couldn't do basic math. Well, I couldn't do I couldn't do year five mathematics. What I love is you listen to people talk about America and they go the immigrant kids do the best because their parents come here like we've sacrificed a lot and so you have this opportunity to be great and the parents flog them to succeed. Not Aussie immigrants. They're not talking about the minority of the British Australian child. Right. Because my child's half Canadian, half Australian. My other child's half British, half Australian.
Starting point is 00:18:50 And, you know, we're not pushy parents. We don't push them too hard. No. You know what we push our kids to do? See, immigrant parents are like, you need to be good at math, science to get into tech and AI. And like that is one thing about white privilege. If you want to talk about it as we go, look, mate, just be charismatic be charismatic you're already going to be fine you just need to know how to be cool. My parents the only thing they didn't care that much about school my father was illiterate my
Starting point is 00:19:15 father dropped out of school at 14 became a carpenter and my mother was more she wanted us to pay rent more than anything that was her big goal is that we'll be earning enough money to pay rent while we live in the house. So my parents were all about work ethic and it actually served me well throughout my life. I've got a very good work ethic. I've always had a good work ethic. If you watch over the course of my career, I haven't stopped touring for 20 years and I've been doing a new show every bloody year. You know what I mean? That's a, that's a big workload, but I, I have a good work ethic,
Starting point is 00:19:48 but my parents never pushed me to do homework, never pushed me to do assignments. They pushed me to work at McDonald's was the most important thing for them. So your mom was more of like a, uh, cartoonish landlady. Yeah. Mate. When I was, the day I left school. I'll have it next week Mrs Nugent. The day I left school, the day I left school I started playing board. It's time for you to play board right. So one week after I left school because that was a week that I lived free I had to give $80 Australian in 1994 to live it was the exact amount of money that I couldn't afford to leave the house and I couldn't save money up. It was the exact amount of money to keep me poor and at home. It did all the
Starting point is 00:20:34 stuff and then she'd say she'd go, oh I do your washing and you get fed, that's a bloody good deal and so Monday mornings, this is how you'd wake up, This knurled up claw would just be like this. That would come to your face like this. This hand would be like this, just going bored. That was the first thing that would happen on a Monday morning. You'd have to give mom 80 bucks and then you'd have to live your life.
Starting point is 00:20:58 Do you think she would have evicted you? Oh yeah, look, look, look, I tell you what, if you, I could ring up either one of my brothers right now and they will tell the same story. In fact, they will be, cause Danny paid $80 as well. And he was seven years ahead of me. I actually, actually, I actually got out of it quite cheap. He, he was paying $80 a week in fucking 1989, 1989 inflation adjusted inflation adjusted. You did very, very well. See,
Starting point is 00:21:28 I'm from a one family. So it was like, they want you to live there forever. That's why you live there forever. I saw a stat the other day in Croatians, apparently are some of the oldest to leave the nest ever. And I have an uncle called Miller who still lives with my grandparents to this day, to this day in his 50s He's like it wasn't Robert from everybody loves Raymond But he kind of has to pay it back because she has dementia and he takes care of my grandmother
Starting point is 00:21:54 But like he goes circle, but but Greeks I remember they were always living home They don't want the children to leave the home You stay here and save up and you can buy a house. And when you left home in a Greek family, when you got engaged, when you got married, not even engaged, when you got married, when you got married, that's when you moved into a new house. But the economy is so bad. So you'd still be living there forever.
Starting point is 00:22:18 We're basically, we're basically making everyone Greek now because people can't leave home anymore. Kids can't get houses. It's becoming financially impossible. And so everyone is going to get the joy of having the Greek experience or the Croatian, Italian experience of living with your family forever just without ethnic parents, which means no one's happy about it. Because Aussie families want you fucking gone. White parents want you out. When I moved out of home and I moved to Perth for university for $80 a week, the same price, for $80 a week,
Starting point is 00:22:53 I lived in the back of an old gay guy's house in a garage. They had like a mattress that looked like someone had been murdered on it. That was a single bed. I lived in a single bed and I brought me telly in and I had a little hot plate and a microwave and that's all I had. And my whole wall of my apartment had a roller door
Starting point is 00:23:13 that went up like that for me to go. If I wanted to shower, I had to go into his house and then I had to come back out again. Oh, it was not good. It was not good. The amount of just masturbating I did in that shed to stave off depression was outrageous. Man, when I left home, I stayed in someone's garage on a mattress on the floor for three
Starting point is 00:23:35 months next to Greg Fleet when he was kicking heroin. So what, it was last year, was it? I'll never forget that. I spoke to my mum, lived in Perth. My dad wanted me out of the house. My dad and I had a... How old are you? How old are you when this happened? I actually moved out at about 19. So I live with my dad. So my dad was... I was 20. 19. 19. Anglo parents versus ethnic parents is, right? One thing all Anglo parents will say to you is this phrase, I've done my time. Okay? That's how they is this phrase. I've done my time. Okay, that's that's how they see parenting is
Starting point is 00:24:06 I've done my time You've got to get out. No ethnic parent ever says I've done my time That that's a commitment for life And so my dad and I started no longer seeing eye to eye because I was a little wanker Okay, so my dad grew up in the country not a wealthy guy during your Russell Brand era where you had the big hair and you were presenting to me in some very skinny jeans. 100%. Yes. Okay. So my dad is, my dad is his country down the line Aussie bikers there is. And at this point I'm influenced by Russell Brand. Not sexually, just hairline. I had puffed up hair. I was just a little punce doing comedy, which my dad, every time I'd go to a gig, right, because I started about 18, 19, dad would go,
Starting point is 00:24:52 see you later Sorenfeld. Because he's the only comedian in you. He goes, how much are you getting paid tonight Sorenfeld? Oh yeah, what are they paying you? One beer? Oh, that's a career. What's the deal with not being paid anything and being like Russell Brand? And so because I had some wanker friends as well, who I look back on now, who were rich kids, and we weren't rich, but I had some rich kid friends. I remember the day I got kicked out of home with my dad, this was the argument. And I look back at it and laugh now. Dad goes, we'll cook up burgers for dinner tonight, eh? So he's cooking up the burgers. And I look back at it and laugh now. Dad goes, we'll cook up burgers for dinner tonight, eh? So he's cooking up the burgers.
Starting point is 00:25:27 And I said, what are we having for the bun? And he goes, what do you mean bun? We got white bread. And I go, shouldn't we get a brioche down the supermarket? We can just get a brioche burger bun. That'd be better. Oh, you're just like your mother, aren't you? Nothing's good enough for you, is it?
Starting point is 00:25:46 You couldn't fucking handle just a bit of white bread like a normal kid. Not fucking Amos. Am I getting it right? I'll never forget, he smacked down the fry pan. He goes, brioche, fucking brioche. Everything's got to be fucking European. Fancy, you can't have white bread. Oh, your mum was always too far. I wasn't fucking good enough for your mother.
Starting point is 00:26:08 Oh, it's gotta be the finest. What cheese should we put? Cammon fucking bear? Oh, that's never good enough. Why don't you fuck off, mate? This is a white bread house, not a brioche house. Australian white bread is the very best though, is the very best. A bit of tip top. I would love a burger and a bit of tip top. I would love it. You wouldn't see you. My dad wishes he had you, but all I did was suggest that we'd buy the brioche bread. And my little brother was more my dad's man. And my brother came up to me and goes,
Starting point is 00:26:39 why you always got to go fancy? You got to get kicked out of the house. Keep it simple. You're threatening dad. You're saying he's not the house. Keep it simple. You're threatening bad. You're saying he's not a good enough dad because he can't provide us. I was like, mate, brioche is four bucks. And so I went, I'm out of here. And then I went and lived at a Cadillac comedy promoter's garage. And he goes, you can stay here fella, but Greg Fleet's kicking heroin. So I went from wanting brioche to basically watching a man slurp on his methadone and have cold sweats. But I was like, I'm a fucking artist. I'm like Russell Brand in the Flophouse. I'm living the comedy journey.
Starting point is 00:27:17 How many wanks did you have while Spleedy was passed out on smack? No, I didn't have any, but I don't want to throw, maybe we can beat this guy's name you can tell me if it's because all the comedians that would come through stayed there with me. This is a fucking garage dude. Chris Franklin went in there and he went to a strip club and I heard him have a wank when he got back and he didn't know I was in there. I don't think Franklin's gonna be upset. We're big fans of Chris Franklin. We're friends with Chris Franklin no problem with Chris Franklin. We like we're friends with Chris Franklin. No problem with Chris Franklin. And he was blind out of it. And I'm like 1890. He doesn't know I'm in there. And I swear to God, I could smell scurvy in the cum. It was a horrible, horrible life at the beginning. That's what comedy does. Scurvy in the cum. Yeah, just like I don't
Starting point is 00:28:04 think I think it's just the fucking the dick is just starting to smell from the sweats and all that type of stuff. Yeah. You know, when you're- But you know, actually, can I actually, can I link this to our first bit of material for the day about the news? Sure. Sure. Somehow. I thought we were doing that. So we discuss all the time, family life and the complications of siblings and me me a Son of a farmer from a country Australia And then I became a little bit of a wanker going to law school and I'd European and stress you my mother
Starting point is 00:28:31 We'd always clash you got to think about the biggest clashing family in America this year. I think we've got an American Pope Hey, I don't know if you discussed Bob Pope Pope Bob Pope has a brother who's moved to Florida. Also, first of all, Bob Pope is a White Sox fan. So he's a bit down and dirty, right? That's your rougher team.
Starting point is 00:28:55 He's not going for the car. He's a White Sox guy. Carry on. White Sox. He's a White Sox guy. So he's got a brother that sort of said that he disagrees with Trump's immigration stuff. Okay. So some people are like, okay, you know, like he's apparently he's a Republican leaning,
Starting point is 00:29:09 obviously, because he's a Catholic conservative, but hates the MAGA stuff about immigration. But then he's got another brother called Louis Provost, who lives in Florida. And already, the living in Florida should give you a clue. He's an immigrant to Florida from Chicago. Yeah. They found Facebook posts from Louis where he goes on rants about Nancy Pelosi, one of which he says, have a look at this drunk cunt. And then when he was called on it, he said, what can I tell you? I'm a Maga type.
Starting point is 00:29:43 I've got my beliefs and I'm not changing just cuz my brother's a pope. A pope? Not the pope. Did he say a pope? I know I've just written down a pope but I might be making that quote up. I hope he call him a pope. I hope he doesn't know that there's not multiples. Yeah, he's not my Pope. He's my brother, he's a dipshit. How's the new Pope being received? Is he being received? Do other people seem to like this new Pope? Is he doing good work?
Starting point is 00:30:14 I don't know. You know what, it's like, it's not a fan theory. He's fairly progressive, isn't he? He's fairly progressive sort of a Pope. Well, for Catholics, but he's still, you know, he's still anti-abortion and he doesn't want, you know, no gays in there and no female priests and whatnot. But no, no gays in the, in the priesthood. It's going to be hard in it.
Starting point is 00:30:36 As the last Pope said too much fagguccino or what was it? Faggotti or whatever in the, in the Vatican. But I just wanted to talk to you about, apparently, I don't know whether is the Pope allowed to go, let's think about this, to his Thanksgiving in Chicago? Of course. And is he? I don't because the last Pope didn't ever go back to Argentina, but if he does, you have to think there's a world. So you think once you're the Pope, you have to stay in the Vatican, you have to stay in Italy, you can't go. Unless it's like on a tour, it's on tour. You have to stay in the Vatican. You have to stay in Italy.
Starting point is 00:31:02 You can't go visit family. You reckon he can't just go to the White Sox game and then go see his brothers and hang out for a bit. I don't think you get like a week. I don't think you get a weekend off in the Pope where you're like, I'm going to get a deep fish pizza, have a few pints and watch the baseball. I'm going to have a hot dog that has a spear of a pickle in it and a couple of chunks of tomato. I've never gotten that hot dog they sell there, but I will be there doing my special
Starting point is 00:31:30 next week. Hey, come and see me. I'm like the Pope. This week, this week. Fucking hell, I better write some jokes. But imagine what it's like knowing your brother's the Pope. Like it is, it's got to be, you've got to look at your own life and you think, man, my brother ended up like, whoever thinks my brother's going to be the Pope to be out of America. Yeah. You don't think he's going to be the Pope, but like, okay. Okay. So you're saying, okay, I understand he can't go home for Christmas, right? Because he's got Pope duties at Christmas.
Starting point is 00:32:00 Although that's a great movie because there's always movies about getting home for Christmas to Chicago. Although that's a great movie because there's always movies about getting home for Christmas to Chicago. Yeah, planes, trains and popes. Planes, trains and popemobiles. So, so, so he's not going to do Christmas, but he can do Thanksgiving, surely. Surely Thanksgiving, because that's an American holiday. The Italians aren't going to miss him on Thanksgiving. On that one. Yeah. Yeah. And you'd imagine he'd lead the blessing.
Starting point is 00:32:27 And then also, how good would it be? We'll go around the table, you say what you're thankful for. I'm thankful that I'm the Pope. Yeah, I bet you the Maga brother would be like, oh yeah, you're a fan of Thanksgiving, are you going to lecture me about the genocide of the native people? You fucking woke prick. You think the Pope is woke with his? Well, according to his brother, he's too woke. As Trump commented? Yeah, he says, well, of course, he's saying, like, I promised that a golden age for America.
Starting point is 00:33:01 And now we've got an American pope. And look, I wouldn't be surprised if pretty soon, uh, Iran folded and we had an American Muslim become the Ayatollah. And if we can potentially get an American Dalai Lama, we get the trifecta over here. The Dalai Lama has always been one that's weird to me. Like, you're just born into it. And then like,
Starting point is 00:33:20 everyone thinks the Dalai Lama is fucking awesome, right? Except for when he was just like licking a child. That was, that was one of his faux pas. But apart from that, everyone's always quoting him like, ah, yeah, he's all right. And then he's like, touch my tongue. Explain this to me. So you're the Dalai Lama dies and then they're like, he's reincarnated to another body.
Starting point is 00:33:41 How do they pick like who that went? Like, could it be? It just go down to an orphanage and you do many, many moves. Because Steve Jobs was a Buddhist. Is there a world where it could be a Silicon Valley tech bro? No, it's a child, right? They pick a child. They just pick a child, a random child. Yeah, there's like, you know, you have to be a Buddhist. You can't be like some bloody kid in Israel or something.
Starting point is 00:34:03 You know, you've got to be a Buddhist. You can't't yeah we're not gonna have a Chicago Dalai Lama I'll tell you what I'm looking for right we're not gonna have it and they just they just go down to like they go to their families and go are you Buddhist and you pregnant right well when it comes out we'll have a look at it right and then they go this one this one's all right this one's good to go and then the the one that came up people would watch him talk people watch him talk things he's wonderful wonderful they think oh this guy's a genius it's just like being in the royal family it's rubbish okay so you could
Starting point is 00:34:34 get a real dunce yeah it just grows up a proper like you just pick one that you didn't know was autistic until it was too late. And then you have a TV show called Dowa Alarming on the Spectrum. Because that's like dangerous, man. Because imagine if it was just Catholics get randomly chosen to be a pope, you could end up with some like New Jersey mobster who's a Catholic. It's like, oh, what are you going to do? You're welcome. Yes. For forgiveness.
Starting point is 00:35:07 Do you reckon that the other, um, Cardiff's were upset? The card of Sicilian Wales. Cardinals, Cardinals, baseball baseball. Do you reckon the baseball teams, the other baseball team that were they upset by the new Pope or do you reckon like, like, cause there's always, this is my fourth pope in my lifetime, right? And every time a new pope's coming on, they always do this. We reckon this one might be black. Every year we get over this one might be black and then it doesn't happen. Do you think an American pope is more of a minority than a black guy?
Starting point is 00:35:44 Well, I, my personal belief is I think they chose him one because he's American, but also a Latin American, like he's a Peruvian guy. So he speaks the Spanish plus he's American. I think my theory is they kind of used him as a way to be a check and balance on Donald Trump and his anti-Latin American immigrant check. And so that's why they picked him. The Italians want to bear OG guy. And then apparently they went for this guy because he was sort of
Starting point is 00:36:11 quiet and didn't want it. All right. So, so Australia has the Labour Party. Canada has a left-wing party. We have a Pope. So all these push dominoes just because of Donald Trump. So you think everything's reactionary to Donald Trump? There's a lot of reactions to Donald Trump for sure. Because the Catholic Church rules conservatism when it comes to immigration, they're a real
Starting point is 00:36:35 good Samaritan open door policy. So they push back on that regard. And so I think he's going to be, I think he'll speak a lot about treating Latin American immigrants better. That's my prediction. But now that, seamlessly going to the next topic, now that Donald Trump's a Muslim. Well, he is a Muslim who is currently building, he's building some hotels in Mecca. Yeah, he just got given a plane from from the Saudis, right? Was that Qatar?
Starting point is 00:37:09 And Qatar, Qatar is he's been given a 400 million dollar Qatar Airways jet while Boeing tries to construct the new ones, which I don't think we can be doing that because he says it's for the country, which it is for the president. And then it's going to go to his personal library once he retires. What's it's one thing. What's wrong with the jet we've already got? What's wrong with air force? It's 30 years old. And so Boeing's currently making the two new ones and it's gone well over budget.
Starting point is 00:37:34 And he's gone, fine. I'll just accept this gift from Qatar because you know, there's no way that Qatar would ever ask for anything. I'm about to gig in Dubai. The middle East in many ways have got their shit together in many ways, not in other ways. They're doing terrible jobs, right? But in many ways they got their cities are shiny and new. I think if you got a plane from Qatar, like remember how angry everyone was with the World Cup, right?
Starting point is 00:38:00 Of course, we can't have the World Cup there. They don't know what they're doing. That World Cup was a fucking b That world cup was a banger. It was a banger. Everyone had a good time and everyone was drinking outside the stadium. Everyone reckoned it was really good. And it was great to watch on TV. It was wonderful on TV.
Starting point is 00:38:16 Well, he did a great speech. Uh, he had one good speech. He's done like accepting this, uh, Qatar force one and then having it to yourself. No good Donald. If, if Joe Biden had accepted that the MAGA world would blow up and be like, he's an Arab puppet, he's enriching himself. Him and Hunter are doing coke in that fucking jet. It's a disgrace.
Starting point is 00:38:34 So you've got to stay consistent. Can't be accepting your Air Force One from Qatar. Are you speaking out against Donald Trump and I'm saying that he should get the plane? Of course. He can't always be. Flip-flopped. We flip-flop all the time. You've got to call them as you see them. Here's another one. The Saudi deal
Starting point is 00:38:48 is big though. 600 billion of them investing. So it seems like he's sort of venturing away from his Rayleigh stuff and now he's going over to, like I said, he's talking about business and investments and maybe he's got his own hotel chains going up there. A free plane, a free plane, man. If anyone offered you a free plane brand new, you'd take it. Well, it's fucking tough because I could be bribed pretty, I could be bribed with my numbers low. You'd take, you'd take a free glider hang glider. What are the, what are those suits with wings in it?
Starting point is 00:39:20 You'd take. To be honest, I wouldn't take a hang glider from anyone from the Middle East. I'd want to know what they'd used it on before. What you're saying is a terrorist attack with hang gliders? What are you saying? Yeah, October 7 was a hang glider attack. That's what I thought you were talking about. Really?
Starting point is 00:39:38 Because hang gliders, I got to pay more attention. Did you just accidentally invent a terror attack in your head? Are you the mastermind of this? Really? So you all came in at hang gliders? Yeah. I should check the news out a bit more. You're like a guy who's been in a coma. After I finished the Jim Jefferies show, I was like, that's me and the news done. I don't want to fucking know anything more going on in the world.
Starting point is 00:40:02 It's given me too much grief in my life. Everyone fucking hates you when you talk about it. I said that's me in the news done I remember when you were doing that show and you'd be like, how come no one sees me like John Stewart? I was like well He does make that is I never ever said how come no one sees me like John Stewart. Maybe John Oliver maybe John like John Stewart maybe John Oliver maybe John Oliver but I never thought anyone should see me as John Stewart I'm not intelligent enough to be John Stewart when we all go. John Oliver, let's go with John Oliver. I'm intelligent enough to be John Oliver I've met him. You were paying you were paying attention at that time. My show, the Jim Jeffery show out of the
Starting point is 00:40:39 Daily Show, the John Oliver show and the Jim Jeffery show the Jim Jeffery show fuck and watch it back is the funniest one pound for pound. Now, did you learn much? Maybe, maybe not. I was learning as we went along as well. But it was a funny show. It was a very funny show. There was some good ideas, some very good feel pieces. It was very funny. But yeah, so listen, I don't care which way you feel about it. Trump's speech in Saudi was good, where he basically said, we've spent 20 years and talking about accepting a jet. I feel like a moron now, not knowing the hang glider thing. That's gonna haunt me for days.
Starting point is 00:41:09 I have a bad memory, it'll go away. Mate, it's different when you've got kids. It's like, mate, you know, what benefit does it serve to be looking at your phone? This is true what you're saying with the kids, right? Cause you do start blocking out news cause you go, I just have to focus on these two people and make sure that they grow up okay and all that type of stuff. And
Starting point is 00:41:26 then my father didn't really follow the news that much when I was a kid. And now that we're moved out of the house, he's obsessed with the news. He's he watches sport and the news and that's his whole day. And I can tell you, I can tell you that Donald Trump isn't doing a good job. And I'll tell you, tell you how I know. Because my dad's like this. Oh, well, you know, he's mixing things up, but it's best not to watch it. That's the first time my dad said it's best not to watch it. Yeah. Yeah, that's big for him. That's because he's been training like a victory parade. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He thought that he was going to be every day going, oh, he bloody did that
Starting point is 00:41:59 good. He's done this good. But maybe the new plane might be a good move. My point was, is that it's nice to see in the Middle East after 20 years of us going over there and destabilizing them, trying to install governments that, like you said, yes, many of their countries do underpay workers, it's semi-slavery, but I'd rather what they've got there than what we've got in Yemen with open slave markets, beheadings, mass amounts of terror. Dubai, Qatar built of bad foundations. But what country isn't? Our country is built of slavery initially, same with the British Empire.
Starting point is 00:42:34 You can say it's bad foundations, but they built a hotel on the water. So that takes pretty good foundations to be able to do that. And Donald Trump also just got a new deal called Mecca Donald's, which is he's going to have a fun get nuggets with your meal. That's your side of fries. You get nuggets and the toys just like it's like Grimace, but he's orange. Right. So anyway, that's what's going on over there. What's the what's the what's the Donald over there. What's the Donald Trump deal?
Starting point is 00:43:05 What's the Donald Trump mega deal? No, I'm joking. Mecca Donalds. It's a mix of American and Arab. Oh, I thought that was a real thing and I was making a joke. He's actually doing Mecca Donalds. Yeah, why not? They have McDonald's out there.
Starting point is 00:43:18 I've eaten McDonald's in Dubai. I know. That was a bad joke for me. I do want to talk about this speaking of the theme of Jews versus Muslims and whatnot. It's a weird time. What do you mean speaking of the Middle East? Who said Jews versus Muslims? Well how else could you sum up Pakistan India? I don't follow the news, there must be something going on over there. It's not good but I will say the online anti-semitism, everyone's talking about this, the growth of it.
Starting point is 00:43:47 And we're not going to wade into that. I want to wade into something that Kanye West has done. Kanye West tweeted out, I'm a Nazi. I don't know, right? You really, you really, you really don't watch anything there. So let me, let me set the scene for you. This morning, I went and got a bagel from New York. Hey, from literally from New York.
Starting point is 00:44:09 It's the only place to get a real bagel with a schmier. They don't do it anywhere else. But I went and got a nice schmier bagel from Apollo Bagels, walking through the East Village, coming back from the hotel. This car pulls up at the traffic lights and there's thumping rap music. I immediately recognized the song. I was blown away. This man in a car was playing Heil Hitler by Kanye West.
Starting point is 00:44:36 His new song, which is banned from the internet. I must say, a lot of people will listen to this. Many people nodding their head along because the beat is good. The message is tough. The beat is good. This is not good. Is this how Hitler did it to begin with? Just a bit of rhythm. I like it. Could you imagine? A simple handshake that we can all figure out right away. That's always been my problem with people, complicated handshakes. It's a simple thing and a bit of a strong message is what you're saying.
Starting point is 00:45:12 What I was saying is, if you think about it, a song that goes, have you heard it? No. The song? I haven't. How would I hear it if it's banned on the internet? I don't know how to get songs on Spotify. Where do you get it? Where do you get the song? I don't know how to get songs on Spotify. Where do you get it? Where do you get the song? Where do you think you'd get it? Where would you find something anti-semitic? On the dark web. Reddit. X. X or Reddit. But it's getting hundreds
Starting point is 00:45:39 of millions of views just on the internet. And man, it is weird weird a wacky world where you've got it for me well the weird part is I can see if it's any good let's go party oh yeah like what is it go give it to me all right can I just find I'll find the actual lyrics because I'd hate to miss quote it I'd hate sure sure you wouldn't want it you wouldn't want to make him seem like a bad dude. No, I want to make sure we get this 100% correct. Yeah, what is, does Kim Kardashian just sit back with her kids like this? Yeah, dad's a different sort of dude.
Starting point is 00:46:17 You know what I mean? Like, because you don't want to speak ill of someone's father. It's like, like the worst thing that Kanye West ever did was get his daughter to sing in the Lion King. It can't be worse than this. What's happening? Okay, so the lyrics basically go, man, these people took my kids from me. Then they froze my bank account. I got so much anger in me got no way to get out. People don't understand what I'm saying on Twitter. And then he says, N-word, how Hitler, N-word, how Hitler. And it's, but this is what's great about it.
Starting point is 00:46:54 He does know how Hitler felt about guys like him, right? He, he, Hitler wasn't a fan of black people, right? Well, I don't imagine when Adolf Hitler thought of the Third Reich he thought one day we're going to set up an empire strong, powerful, Teutonic German where a proud black man will be the anthemic. He thought it was going to be Wagner. If he didn't like Jesse Owens you've got to think he wouldn't have been a big Kanye guy. Is it true that he didn't like Jesse? I thought he congratulated Jesse Owens, but he, his thing was, you've gone to the other side. He hated Jesse Owens.
Starting point is 00:47:35 Jesse Owens is winning all the gold medals and all that type of stuff. He hated that. No, but I heard, obviously, obviously he was, I heard from Jenna Goebbels. She's my next door neighbor. And I heard that he was unhappy, obviously, with the German loss. But he was a good name for a poor German monster. I heard that he was really unhappy, the German lost.
Starting point is 00:48:02 But then he was angry that America gets. Now, this might have just been from Inglorious Bards, but remember I think it was Goebbels that said something like America's success can be measured in Negro sweat, which was, you're not better than us, you've just got Africans. And they're an elite group, and you're not. As in we're the best whites. So don't go bragging about your metal town. So you think that Hitler always thought that black people were better. He just wanted to produce the best whites. I think, yeah, he obviously had to recognise that they were
Starting point is 00:48:34 athletically superior. All right. But he wanted, but he wanted, but he wanted to be the superior whites. So he wanted to be Steve Nash and Luca Donkic. Well, in the same way that people get angry in the World Cup, like the Argentinians were always really racist to the French, where they're like, oh, yeah, the French, you guys won the World Cup, did you?
Starting point is 00:48:58 Or was it your colonies in France that won you the World Cup? Because everybody in the team is an immigrant from the places you colonized. Whereas the Germans don't have many colonies so they were like yeah yeah we're we're actually the best of the whites. Now they obviously thought they're superior to blacks too but I think that was what his issue was when those Olympics won. Alright so you're at the traffic light I have to I have to stay you on course here. It's stuttery today. I didn't sleep last night. So you're at the traffic light, up drives a guy, he's playing Hail Hitler, right? Yeah. And you think the tune's quite good. And he
Starting point is 00:49:32 had it blaring. What did the guy look like? He was in the car. A acidic dude. He was just like a bro with like a, he was like, you know what? It looked like pats on the neck. He was like, um, he might've been some kind of Latino. Okay. But he could have been a white supremacist type of a guy. Nah, definitely not. Was not like a white supremacist. There's never been a white supremacist with tattoos on the neck.
Starting point is 00:50:00 Nah, but it was like, you know, he definitely was not white. So he was a Latino guy. Yeah. Mixed race guy of some background, not this. This was not a guy in a pickup truck. Okay. So, so, so you have children, right? Let's say you have children in the future, right?
Starting point is 00:50:17 Might happen. Yeah. Right. Your kid starts playing in the room. What do you do? Well, how Hitler the song. Yeah. I'd be very, you stop your foot from tapping.
Starting point is 00:50:28 Oh, I would probably think I shouldn't have forced them to listen to so much hunters and collectors. And now they're listening to this to punish me for pushing eighties, nineties, pop rock. By the way, by the way, the rest of the world doesn't know the band hunters and collectors. It sounded
Starting point is 00:50:44 racist what you just said. You said, I should have made him listen to those bloody Hunters and Collectors. Yeah, those tribesman. Hunters and Collectors is an Australian band from the 1980s and the 1990s who pub rock from Australia, pub rock from Australia. Well, I just couldn't I actually just couldn't get over what a crazy time we live in where legitimately the biggest black artist of my time, him or Jay-Z, right?
Starting point is 00:51:11 Me growing up, they're like the two dominant forces. You have to just laugh the simulation of the world we are in now that I'm walking with a bagel in New York. The biggest black artist of my time was fucking kids. So it all goes around the circle. My generation. We still listen to Michael Jackson playing in the same. You know, there's a second documentary for Leaving Netherland, right? There's Leaving Netherland 2, which aired on, I believe, Channel 4 in Britain. I can't get it over here.
Starting point is 00:51:38 I really want to see the second part of that documentary. I enjoyed the first part and I want to see the second part and I can't see it anywhere in America. part of that documentary. I enjoyed the first part and I want to see the second part and I can't see it anywhere in America. I okay so I'm sorry you know what I'm looking at now is I'm trying to make sure that I am somewhat correct with this Jesse Owens thing because I don't want to be out there. You didn't like Jesse Owens, you didn't like him. Okay after the Olympics, this isn't the Britannica thing right I just want to get this memorable finish. After the Olympics ended stories circulated that Owens was snubbed by Hitler and it was circulated globally. As the most common variant of the story goes, after Owens won his medal, Hitler not wanting
Starting point is 00:52:10 to acknowledge any non-Aryan's ability left the stadium. Although Owens himself initially insisted that it was not true. The report appeared in newspapers around the world. It is true that Hitler did not shake hands with Owens. In fact, he did not congratulate any of the medalists at the first day of the competition on August 2nd, 1936, probably because he was fucking tweaking out on the math he was on.
Starting point is 00:52:30 On the first day, Hitler met and shook hands with all the German gold medalists. That Hitler left the stadium before African-American hijacker Cornelius Johnson won his first gold. Hitler's staff maintained he had a pre-scheduled appointment. Hitler was reprimanded at the hand of the IOC Henri de Balier-Latteur told him that he could either congratulate all the gold medalists or none. Hitler chose to honor no one.
Starting point is 00:52:54 Right, but if Jesse Owens didn't win the medal, would he have honored the others? Oh, because I know I grew up thinking that like he was shaking hands and then he went eugh. But he just... No, he left the stadium. There's the footage of him leaving the stadium. He sees like Jesse Owens run across the thing and he gets up and leaves. No, here we go. This is the, this is the quote that I wanted. Why, why, why are you always defending Hitler? I'm always defending Hitler. Just, this is just interesting. Oh, I don't want that as the clip
Starting point is 00:53:22 that goes on Instagram. Why are you always defending Hitler? And they're going, he was on meth. He was a drug addict. He was a drug addict. We all do bad things on the gear. Yeah. Yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 00:53:35 Like Russell Brando. I used to live with him in a garage. I used to sleep next to him. If only Hitler lived long enough for Bear Grylls to baptize him in the river and say he's born again. I shaved his mustache in as a prank. Okay, here we go. Uh, Owens did feel he was snubbed by someone.
Starting point is 00:53:54 US President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Ah. A month after the Olympic Games, Owens told... That's because there was stairs involved. Yeah, he was... Franklin Roosevelt was just jealous of the legs. He had an issue with the able-bodied. Yeah he wasn't meant to be there till the Olympics in two weeks, the special ones.
Starting point is 00:54:13 Hitler didn't snub me, it was Roosevelt who snubbed me. The president didn't even, this is a good one, the president didn't even bother to send me a telegram. Here we go. Right so you're saying Roosevelt was a worse guy than Hitler in Jesse Owens eyes. Is this what you're going to tell me? I think Jesse Owens was of the opinion which a lot of black people would have been back there was, okay, these Germans are bad,
Starting point is 00:54:33 but we're not exactly being treated rosily at home in the United States. That's what aboutism. That's a lot of rubbish. That's just saying we're being treated badly here. Is your girlfriend just walked in the room? That's, it might be the, it might be someone saying, stop screaming Hitler.
Starting point is 00:54:48 I tell you once I was in a hotel room in down in Cornwall. Could I just have a half now? Is that okay? Half hours. Great. Thank you so much. Oh, you went to check out. Oh yeah. It was a cop. No, no, no. It's just, that's the housekeeping. So I was, I was once, I was once once in a in a bed and breakfast in Cornwall and I this is back in the days of Discman's this is before the iPod, right? So about 2003 2002 and I was gigging in Cornwall in the south of England It's where people go. Oh, are you are or?
Starting point is 00:55:21 Like that, right? So I'm doing a pirate's voice actually came from the penzance pirates, a penzance, but penzance is down in Cornwall, knives and all this type of stuff. It's, it's a lovely part of the world. Beautiful. But it's, um, it's where the pirate voice came from. So I'm in the hotel room and I've got my Discman. Uh, and I was listening to John Lennon's greatest hits. Incidentally, there's this thing to like, uh, come has gone to get you. All right. And I had a porn magazine because this is before phones with, you know, footage
Starting point is 00:55:50 and I didn't have a DVD player used magazines back in the day. I had a porn magazine. I had my earphones on and I was having a wank. Right. And, uh, the maid walked in, turns out she knocked on the door, but I couldn't hear. Right. And I was in full fucking swing. I was in full swing in the middle of the bloody bed. She made an audible scream and she left the room and I took the headphones off and I'm just sitting there going,
Starting point is 00:56:18 Oh God. And she went, I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. She goes, I did knock. I did knock. And I said, I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. She goes, I did knock. I did knock. And I said, I'm really sorry. I just I just had my headphones on and I couldn't hear. Of course, I would have, you know, not I'm so sorry. Apologizing to each other. Right. And then she goes, she goes, I was just bringing some towels. And I went,
Starting point is 00:56:40 I'm gonna need one. And she laughed. Anyway, cut to because it's a bed and breakfast. He's the same lady I have to check out with the next day. Just the misery and also because and it's it's not like a hotel now you just leave because you have the plastic sliding key. This is like a key with a big chain on it. And I had to hand it over to her like, how was your stay? I had a lovely stay. Thank you so much. Everyone was so hospitable. over to her like, how was your stay? I had a lovely stay. Thank you so much. Everyone was so hospitable.
Starting point is 00:57:06 You've cultivated a very warm and romantic environment here at the hotel. Yeah. You'd imagine most people that work in... Could I suggest a poor channel? If you're a maid at a hotel, how many people are you watching have sex and or masturbate a week? I'm going to tell you a story. I can't tell you who this person is because this person is famous. But they told me this story in a dressing room.
Starting point is 00:57:32 This person is the gay persuasion and used to get different male prostitutes in every town that he performed in. Right. So I was performing with him and he came back to the dressing room He goes about a terrible day. I said what happened and He goes I had this bloke laying on the ground and I was squatting over his face with my dick in his mouth and the maid came in and Just she saw everything and and she looked me in the eye and she goes I'll turn that sign to do not disturb then shall I? And he goes it was so embarrassing anyway this guy's quite famous so I don't want to say who it was but I'll tell you afterwards.
Starting point is 00:58:16 Okay. But I just a little. Have a guess have a guess in the comments. No don't don't don't. I don't think they get it actually. I don't know if many people know, but yeah, but yeah, he is. Okay. Speaking of sick things happening in hotels.
Starting point is 00:58:33 Yes. Not that I'm saying, not that I'm saying that Dayaxe is sick. I've already had quite the podcast with Hitler and whatnot. You've been yelling Hitler at the top of your fucking place the whole podcast. You can do what you want. I'll finish my point from before. Yes, I don't think it's great to be playing that song out in public. Well, no, no, no, not out in public, Amos.
Starting point is 00:58:53 Anywhere, anywhere. You shouldn't be playing a song called Hail Hitler anywhere. Now do I stand up for people's right to be able to do it? I guess so, but it does come under the hate speech, right? No, it's the modern Skokie. Skokie, Illinois was about freedom of speech for Nazis to march. And now I guess the white supremacist movement has gone so far that we now have a moment around a black rapper to be able to say
Starting point is 00:59:20 that he is a Nazi over a hook. Do you think he really believes he's a Nazi or do you think it's just attention seeking? I think he's got some issues with Jewish people because he feels that lawyers or whatever his management and his breakup and whatever else has ruined his life, the bank that shut him out or whatever. I also think Ted said, this is like, I had a friend call me a Greek friend and he goes, Oh man, in Greece, everyone's playing this song. He goes with like illegal, they're selling like illegal CDs of it.
Starting point is 00:59:51 And I said, that's crazy, man. Like this world's out of control. And he goes, it feels like the only taboo left. Like rock and roll, hip hop was always about taboos. And we've kind of killed every taboo that Kanye West is so obsessed with pushing the envelope and being hated. He's literally like my cousin's... Just pause the whole show for a second. I've got to answer this call. Man. I'll tell you what...
Starting point is 01:00:16 Who was that? I'll tell you about it. Okay. I have been on hold with ADT on and off, right? On and off for seven hours in the last three days. One phone call was five hours. ADT had the worst customer service of any, you can put this on the podcast,
Starting point is 01:00:35 I don't give a shit, right? But yeah, they're the fucking worst. I just was getting an upgrade. That's all I was fucking doing. They sent the wrong guy and the this and that. Anyway, pain in the ass, carry on. They've been useless. That's all I was fucking doing. They said the wrong guy and this and that anyway pain the ass carry on. They've been useless. Yeah, all I was saying is is I honestly think this guy understands that attention is the most valuable thing in the world in this market and
Starting point is 01:00:55 He was last week before he was saying his cousin sucked him off for then he said he's gay Then and now he's like I'm a Nazi and white supremacist It's anything to remain the most spoken about person in the world. He's an attention seeker. Yeah. So it's, it's, it's, and it's all about like taboo crushing. And we're kind of out of taboo. As comics, we've done the same thing.
Starting point is 01:01:16 We've done things where we go, this will get me. We all joke about people. I know many people joke about Hitler and the most insane things to get laughs. Cause it's, you're not meant to, it's a taboo. You say something that's to get noticed that you could get in trouble. So the secret to stand-up comedy at the moment is to be just almost cancelable right? Cancelable? Cancelable. How do you say that? Cancelable. It's not an easy word. Is that a real word? Cancelable. But if you look at rap, so this is the thing that I've been watching on, I've been reading some pages of people debating about the song.
Starting point is 01:01:50 And people saying, man, well, you know... You need to have kids, man. The fact that you've got all this time to read pages about Kanye West saying he's a Nazi, this is the most pointless activity you could do in your life. Anyway, carry on. But playing out, they were saying, well, let's just go back and singing songs about actual murders you've committed or sexual assaults you've committed. But if you say that you support a demonic and evil regime, then that's taken off. And so all these people were saying that Kanye has always been obsessed with the idea of how come you're allowed to rap. This is when he was a little pussy that wore polo shirts and backpacks and the early albums. He was like, I don't,
Starting point is 01:02:28 why do I have to push being a drug pusher and a gangster and a murderer? And that's okay. So he, he loves playing with this. So what would you rather I rap about murder in Chicago? Right. Yes. I'd rather you rap about that. I think we would. Yes. Yeah. I would rather erupt about that than saying he's a Nazi because the problem, the problem isn't Kanye West being a Nazi. And I'll do this again as a father, right? The problem is the kids listening to it and them fucking thinking it's cool to be a Nazi. It's, it's, it's,'s it's it's it's the domino that gets pushed and then the rest of them fall right. You love Kanye West you've always loved Kanye West you're a
Starting point is 01:03:11 huge you wore those fucking ugly ass shoes I used to see you waddling around in those fucking yeezy fucking. No shoe better for the airport mate. Has there ever been an ugliest sneaker on earth than the fucking shit that that cunt produces? He's hopeless. It's the slip on, slip off shoe if you don't want sketches. It's always worked for me in that regard. No, I'm a little, I can't say I'm a huge lover of Kanye the person at this point, but. No, no, no.
Starting point is 01:03:38 You have, you're not going strong with it. You were his biggest fan, but you're also a man in his 30s, right? You're in your fucking 30s. I like... It's the dickheads who are 14 who are going to think it's cool. Then they're going to start tweeting, I'm a Nazi, hashtag I'm a Nazi. And then they're going to have problems getting jobs in the future. They're going to have problems being on things like juries and stuff like that. Just some stupid song they listened to when they were a fucking kid.
Starting point is 01:04:04 These things are detrimental. No, no, I'm sorry. No doubt. But what I'm saying is then when you ban it, it's like, what have we learned from music and pop culture? If you ban something, what happens to it? Okay. So let's think of songs that have been banned through history.
Starting point is 01:04:19 Right? So the sex pistols, God save the queen. There was no number one in the charts. They just took the number one away. It was just blank, right? Because it was the Queen's birthday weekend and that song had gotten to number one and the authorities called up the BBC and they said on top of the pops, there will be no number one this year.
Starting point is 01:04:39 And that song is carried on for fucking ever because of it. And it's a shit song at the best of times. It's garbage. But this is what I'm angling down on is this is the crazy thing about the openness of the world now is you have the ability to get a song like this out from a very popular person and then everyone goes it's banned you can't access it. We've known forever that banning things makes them iconic and makes people want them more because everybody loves to push back against sort of taboo and they don't want me to listen to this and so I listen to this.
Starting point is 01:05:07 In fact, it used to be that people would be so desperate to be censored because it would mean their shit sells. Even in comedy, I'm not allowed to say this. They banned me. That's how half the hacks are getting famous today is to be told that, oh, my comedy is too edgy. We are fueling Kanye right now by talking about it. Donald Trump doesn't exist if CNN didn't talk about him
Starting point is 01:05:27 nonstop. CNN got Donald Trump voted in because they covered every fucking rally he ever did thinking he would never be voted in. They thought this guy's great for ratings, we'll talk about him at Nausiumn. Now we're talking about Kanye. Kanye should be gone away by now.
Starting point is 01:05:43 I've never thought the cunt was any good. I never thought any of his songs were good. What's his best fucking song? It's all shit. It's all fuck. Jesus walks. I don't know. It's all shit. It's all fucking shit. But you know, we're not being rap-y. John Demery wrote lovely tunes. Lovely tunes that you could sing along to. They had bloody wonderful musicians that could play their instruments. Yes, almost heaven, Aryan Republic. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:06:13 Thank God I'm a Nazi boy. Well, I got me. Well, I got me a fire and I forgot me old window and the sun's coming up. I gotta keep sound the griff. Life ain't nothing but a funny dirty riddle. Thank God I'm a Nazi boy. You're leaving on a choo-choo train.
Starting point is 01:06:30 Don't think I'll ever see you again. That was not fun. You ruined it now. The joke was going really good. That was a clippable moment and you fucked it. I'm just saying. Clippable moment. It's the same.
Starting point is 01:06:45 We could have been something then. We could have gone viral and you fucked it. You brought the trains into it. Mate, we should we should get out to right where I'm about to say it. And then we do. We go. But YouTube said no. Watch the Patreon. We should cut it out.
Starting point is 01:07:07 Patriot with where our real John Denver Nazi lyrics can be. You don't finish it. Yeah, the whole world's cooked. I guess generally it's psychotic. I often think we're living in a fucking simulation at this point that's run out of ideas. The video games just like, you know when you're playing Grand Theft Auto and you've got five stars and you're in a helicopter, things are crashing, there's cops chasing you everywhere. That's what it feels like right now to be in the world.
Starting point is 01:07:41 New Grand Theft Auto is coming out 2026. Looking forward to it. I haven't played one for a while. It's been, it's been about a decade, hasn't it? It's been a long time since Grand Theft Auto. I'd like to do another piece of news. And also my son, my son's going to be 13 when Grand Theft Auto comes out. Right. And so do I let him play it?
Starting point is 01:08:00 Of course you sort of do because it's racing cars and it's shooting things. I let him play Call of Duty and he's a good kid, not those. But there's the bit where you basically that you beat up a prostitute after you have sex with her and take her money. Like there's some pretty harsh things in the old. Why you're going to sit your son down and go, look, mate, when you have sexual relations with a sex worker, she's worked hard and you pay her and- Sex worker's work, sex worker's work. She's earned that money. Don't beat her up afterwards.
Starting point is 01:08:29 Don't beat her up afterwards and take the money. If anything, say thank you, we'll do it again sometime. I appreciate your time, did you appreciate mine? Right? Yeah, of course. Well, here's another thing, cause I'll be playing Grand Theft Auto with him. Do I tell him about these things that you can do?
Starting point is 01:08:48 I think you might get a bit carried away and go, and then you have sex with a sex worker, and then you run around and you get the money. That's what I used to do anyway. You run around and get the money. They've taken it out of this game. They don't do that anymore, do they? Oh, they got rid of it. Back in my day, we used to. Oh, well, I've got some news for you. I got to get this thing back on track.
Starting point is 01:09:08 I've derailed us into all sorts of areas. I want to talk about another big news story. You ready for this one? Here I am reading the paper in New York. There's a trial. You're insane. Okay. They're here. They're in the lobby. Okay. I love the paper, the tangible paper. Diddy's trial has been kicking off in New York. Now there was a line in the paper. So male prostitutes are pretty upset. So male prostitutes have come forward.
Starting point is 01:09:38 As a man who, if I didn't do comedy, would have been a criminal defense lawyer and a very mediocre one, I would have never got to work on this. I am obsessed. I am obsessed with people's defenses. So we know Diddy has been accused of some pretty egregious stuff. I'd like to read some excerpts of the court today that I think are quite illuminating and hilarious. The defense that he's using is that essentially he and his partner were swingers and they
Starting point is 01:10:01 would get people in for sex parties and that was just their proclivities of their relationship. The sex worker that they would bring in was a man named Daniel Philip, who said he would be paid up to $6,000 a pop for the sex session, which went on for a few years, including at spots such as, and if you're ever booking a trip to Manhattan, you want to know which hotel you'd like to get, Manhattan's posh Gramercy Park Hotel and historic Essex House Hotel posh Gramercy Park Hotel and historic Essex House Hotel. In the park there. I don't know that one. Okay. As so far, I have no problem with this. If the man wanted to be because I can't we come from a country with legalized prostitution.
Starting point is 01:10:34 I've traveled the world. I think prostitution should be legal. That's my stance on it so far. Let's carry on. Now, here we go. During one alleged accountant, did he order the pair to use more baby oil? The sex worker, Daniel Phillips said. Y'all need to rub more baby oil on each other. You don't have enough on, Coombs is alleged to have said.
Starting point is 01:10:53 But one of Coombs' lawyers said during her opening statement that while there would be testimony about the client's domestic violence and swing your lifestyle, kinky sex and baby oil, that doesn't make him a sex trafficker. And then here we go. I quote, this is Diddy's defense. This was a toxic relationship. Yes. And although toxic at times, like any other relationship can be, defense lawyer, Tenny Grigaros of Coimbs Ventura said, you may know,
Starting point is 01:11:21 ladies and gentlemen of the jury, of my client's love of baby oil. But I ask you, is love of baby oil a federal crime? No it is not. No it's not. I don't like it. I always get like, whenever I put baby oil on it, I get ingrown hairs. Gets in my pores. I can never wash it off.
Starting point is 01:11:39 I don't like the stuff. I'm a dry wanker. Did you know that about me? I've never used a cream or a whitener of any variety. I'm a dry wanker. Did you know that about me? I've never used a cream or a weight in a video variety. I'm a dry wanker. I just go dry. You know what it is?
Starting point is 01:11:52 I just think like you're, you love yourself a bit much if you're organizing creams and whatnot. Like I'm not there to make it essential experience. I'm releasing a demon. Yeah, I'm here so I can get on with my day. I'm trying. Yeah, I'm not going. I'm trying to move. I need aloe vera. It's one
Starting point is 01:12:06 o'clock I want to get to two o'clock that's all I want to do. I'm plugging my cock for two minutes so I can get on with my day. I'm not it's not a it didn't get burnt and I need to apply cream. Like I've been sunbathing with it. Yes yes I've I've been angry. I need to calm down. This will sort it out. Yeah, we're stoics, you and I like the great Marcus Aurelius. They don't make men like us anymore. This young generation all lubed up. Jack, are you a lube guy? You're not a lube guy? And you're circumcised? Yes. You had to check if you were circumcised. you're circumcised. Yes. You I'm thinking back to a lot of the conversations. I'm not sure where we're going. So the Diddy trial is underway. Could you imagine being on that? Because for the Americans who don't
Starting point is 01:13:12 know, I'm from a city called Adelaide, which is famous for murder. I like that. The headline's got to be Did He? Question mark. That's I should work for a newspaper right away. I think this one would be like slippery defense, slippery, slippery, slippery defense lawyer. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Essentially saying that, you know, or it's like, yeah, boiling someone up with baby oil wasn't the crime. It was the filming at blackmailing people and raping them. Yeah, it's the rape and the extortion and all this type of stuff. He's a bad
Starting point is 01:13:43 dude. And they keep on focusing on the baby oil. He had so much. Like he's kinky. He's kinky. Like we're attacking him for being kinky. It's like that was his thing. There's worse things than baby oil. It's worse stuff than baby oil.
Starting point is 01:13:55 It's meant for babies. Yeah. Yeah. Ted Bundy. Oh, he likes spanking them. No, no, murdering them. I don't care if you spank them on the way in. Yeah. He murdered them at the end.
Starting point is 01:14:07 Oh, you kink shaving me. Yeah. Ladies and gentlemen, is it a crime to be a homosexual? Is it a crime? Is it a factor of crime to be gay? Or if you fucking kill them afterwards, it is. Homophobes abound. We have footage of the guy being very violent.
Starting point is 01:14:23 We have so many ways to put Diddy in prison for a very long time and baby oil isn't the The the the the the the the the the All these conspiracies are I don't know for sure but it seems like anyone who crossed in to pack for sure You killed two pack for sure? Okay. Thanks
Starting point is 01:14:51 This what I mean about like news I watched That's what I mean about the simulations coming to the end we're gonna find out who killed two bag did he's in jail Kanye's got a song about how Hitler we've got Donald Trump making deals over there in the Middle East with Kia Stama the British prime minister you look at rock and roll as good clean fun now people going like this they got ACDC and like we're gonna do a bit of rock and roll for you and you're like and like it's pretty family I took my 12 year old to see ACDC on Good Friday listening to Highway to Hell and we were singing about hell and I was like and it
Starting point is 01:15:31 was just family. Now in the world we live in now Highway to Hell is the equivalent of maybe like let's do the twist. Exactly. I want to hold your hand Yeah, we're such a dark group of human beings All right So diddy troll is one that we're gonna be watching and we'll update you with whatever's going on there and then get all your diddy information here Here's star ma. We should talk about this quickly Every this is another thing everything that all the populace movements around the world. Obviously are interested in immigration Yeah, here's star ma This is another thing, everything that all the populist movements around the world obviously are interested in immigration. Kirstama has given a speech saying that Britain has become an island of strangers and they
Starting point is 01:16:14 need to limit immigration. And one of the things that's causing some furor is he said that everyone should have to speak English, which is interesting because he's part of the left-wing Labour government. I mean, people would say they're not that left-wing. He said the speech in English, right? So how are the people going to learn if he doesn't do it in other languages first? How are they going to know what he said? Look, I can't fault your logic. Yeah, yeah. The information isn't getting out there. It's not getting out there. We understood because we're good with the English words. Because we're smarter than those fools who only know one and a half languages. We know one. It's the best one.
Starting point is 01:16:56 English is the best language. I will die on this hill. No other language is better. Easiest one to understand. I found it the easiest to learn as well. I've tried to learn other languages since, I can't do it. English, I picked up, I picked up English when I was a child. That's how easy, I was like two and I picked up English. That's how easy English is. Yeah, I tried German in university. I was in my 20s,'t fucking do it these Libyans coming here to Britain can't speak something I knew at three shameful if I could learn my I have a three-year-old in the house full sentences tells me about his day in English you said it man we're with you Mexican nanny is finding it very hard to understand him.
Starting point is 01:17:45 She didn't learn English quick enough. Other news for you. Gavin Newsom, closer to us in California, the governor of California, Gavin Newsom, is discussing breaking up homeless camps. What's your thoughts on this? I think with the home, because I live in LA, the homeless problem is way out of control. We pay a lot in taxes. The problem with LA is, is it literally has the greatest weather on earth. It rains for about 20 days out of the year that I'm being literal like 20 days
Starting point is 01:18:17 out of 365 days. It's a very moderate temperature. It's not a sweaty temperature if you are homeless Where else would you go? It really is the best place to live if you're homeless, right? So we're being punished for our beautiful weather, right? The cold place is like, oh, they got problems over there in LA with the homeless Yeah, because your ones die our ones flourish, right so they flourish so now Newsom wants to move them on they have to constantly keep moving you're allowed to tent up what he's got a rule saying so no enclaves and then he says you any more than three days that you'll be like
Starting point is 01:18:55 forced on so he's essentially moving the bit to some sort of roaming hunter gatherers you could say what is is it out of the room okay is it out of the realm? Okay, is it out of the realm? And I know this sounds very harsh, to have shanty type towns way on the outskirts like you do in South Africa. Like, is this... Well, that seems to be... Well, that would kind of justify... Because we have a lot of desert between us and Palm Springs, right?
Starting point is 01:19:22 In LA, we have a lot of desert between us and them. Yeah, but this is the thing, is this the world we want? Between Palm Springs and Las Vegas, we have a lot of desert as well. It's just desert. Yeah, but this is what I'm saying is this is the world we're ending up in. We're ending up with people having mega estates and then shanty pounds. Yeah, but I'm not saying, well, it's better than what's going on right now. What's going on right now is tents just popping up, tent cities popping up, being taken down, tents, tents, tents, tents, tents.
Starting point is 01:19:46 Fires are happening because of the tents, because they're having little cookouts in their little fucking tents. Why don't we put a whole lot of shipping containers and stuff or just make a whole lot of stuff and go, good luck? I mean, we could also try and get them to earn a dime. America will never do what Australia and Britain does.
Starting point is 01:20:07 They will never give housing to the poor. They will never give 365 days for the rest of your life the unemployment benefits that you get in these other countries, right? Mental health treatment. You're on your own. There's no healthcare. So we all got big fences up. It's becoming South Africa already. It's no healthcare. So we all got big fences up. It's becoming South Africa already. It's
Starting point is 01:20:26 already becoming. People have big fucking fences, big alarm companies, cameras all over your fucking house and all that type of stuff. And what else are we going to do? You can't just have them on your street, can you? You pay your taxes. I live down by the beach. And I do sometimes, I'll be going for a walk. I go down the really expensive parts of California. Like I go to Manhattan Beach and these areas and these homes. My favorite thing in the world to do, by the way, is open houses. I talked about this in my activity, but I'll tell you here, my girlfriend and I, we go to open houses for homes worth $35 million. And we just wander around. And our favorite thing to do on a Sunday afternoon after we get brunch is to take a tour of a
Starting point is 01:21:11 $30 million beach home and talk shit about it to the agent. You just go, I don't like the finishing. Who did the finishing? I think this is quite gauche, very tacky. And they'll go, oh yeah, I'm really, oh, this isn't your stuff. We've actually got something that's opening up in the Orange County if you'd like to go and see that and you go, no, no, if it's anything like this, we're just not interested in this stuff. And then you get on the bus and go back to your studio apartment. But for a moment, you feel like you're a rich, powerful
Starting point is 01:21:39 person. You get dignity for just a moment. But when I go to these places I often notice a tent out the front. You get dignity for just a moment. Your whole week is building up to one moment of dignity. Exactly. As you shit on someone else's house and you're here going we can't have these shanty towns. I want welfare for everyone. We pay so much in taxes, stop making weapons, stop fucking defeating the war machine, right? Focus on the homeless. Yeah, the mental health of soldiers who have come and back. Focus on medical care. You could fix this country very easily with the taxes we've got. But no, you're fucking war. I am doing, you know, I'm not at all wealthy, right?
Starting point is 01:22:28 I'm like a battler in America, like truly a battler, right? I say this all the time. You're in a $900 hotel, just so we're clear, your career is going very well. You're a very expensive hotel in the middle of Manhattan right now. No, my girlfriend... Is that a bottle of wine behind you that you're going to crack open later, pauper? Listen, I am struggling. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:22:52 Are you drinking water from a third world? Getting that in my Fiji water, which is obviously it's it's a it's an economically destroyed nation. That's what I've been reduced to is drinking this. You're paying tariffs on that. These Fiji feet being my way with too much for too long In the trade deficit, they're not good for us the Fijians sitting pretty there with their good water Imagine being a kid in Fiji taking an extra long share your dad would be furious Much money you're wasting, you know in Fiji. an extra long shower, your dad would be furious at you. How much money are you wasting?
Starting point is 01:23:25 You know in Fiji they're drinking water from fucking Connecticut. Yeah, no, but I'm not. My girlfriend has a very good job and we're staying in this nice hotel, but my point being I go out to these really expensive houses and there's a tent out in front of a lot of them, right? Like on the beach. To show you what you can afford. and there's a tent out the front of a lot of them, right? Like on the beach. To show you what you can afford. Yeah, you gotta think though,
Starting point is 01:23:48 I'm spending a lot of money living in a shoe box in an apartment complex near the airport. And as a homeless person, once you've liberate yourself from the idea of possessions, you get a tent. You do think people are spending 30 million for this view and this bloke set up a tent and he's on the beach. The guy in the house is out there scamming people or selling weapons or
Starting point is 01:24:09 being a surgeon, whatever these scumbags are doing to make that much money. And you go, who's living a better life? They got the same view. I could see why you go to the beach. The guy in the tent's got the better view because he's got the beach and the nice house. That's what I'm saying. The guy in the house has to look at the tent. The guy in the house is leaving to the office at 6am and this guy wakes up to the sun and the guy in the office who's I don't know let's say he's a heart surgeon he gets back to his house and what does he see? He sees a man lying in the tent in front of him thinking the fucking guy didn't have to do anything for that. So I see why these rich people are like,
Starting point is 01:24:47 these fucking paupers are destroying it. He didn't have to do anything. He had to walk there first of all. Right, he didn't drive there. But I get a kick out of it every time I think, these fucking finance hedge funders, that's the only people who can afford this. These people would move money around
Starting point is 01:25:01 who don't really contribute much as far as building great things or, I'm glad their view was ruined by homeless people out the front who get just as good of you as them. It brings me the greatest joy to know that that gets a stick in their fucking crawl. What do you think the answer to the homeless problem is then? Because if Newsome says we just got to keep moving people, moving people, they got to move somewhere.
Starting point is 01:25:24 I think,. I think- So I think about this a lot as far as public housing, okay? So the problem with public housing is, I support public housing, it's always fucking ugly. It's like, particularly being Eastern European, coming from the communist bloc, I go back to Croatia and you see where communism was involved.
Starting point is 01:25:39 It's a stain on the architecture. Anywhere, you know, like in Poland, in Hungary, all these countries, they're fucking rough concrete blocks that destroy the human soul. And looking at them, it's like how hideous is it? What if we, I don't know if we can get nicer public housing blocks or we give them housing blocks that are underground so we don't have to see them. Like in Vegas?
Starting point is 01:26:02 Yes. You ever seen the mole people in Vegas? Watch a documentary. I have. It is so upsetting, the mole people in Vegas, man. They've got all these like bits, canals and stuff underneath because it's so hot they can't live above the ground. I know.
Starting point is 01:26:17 There are thousands of homeless people living underneath Vegas. It's really weird. And there's this one guy, he's like, well, you know, I, uh, I used to run out like a hedge fund and all that stuff. And then, uh, you know, I just, um, couldn't live with my wife anymore. And you're like, does someone have a gambling problem? I think someone has a gambling problem because you're living under the ground in Vegas. Have you watched that documentary? There's like a fucking,
Starting point is 01:26:44 but it's honestly, it's one of my favorites. And this week in the news... I've watched it a couple of times, but you can only come so many times. I watched last week, remember I said to you about the government spending 20 trillion or whatever the fuck it was to build underground cities? I just think let's just... We spent the money. Originally, it was for the elites, but the elites have created a system so unfair we
Starting point is 01:27:04 have homelessness. Give the homeless people the underground bunkers that were for the elite, put them in there. That way the rich don't have to see them. The homeless get a home. This could be a good way to meet in the middle. Is the homeless going to the bunker system underneath Denver airport? And they create their own mole like this. You believe underneath Denver Airport is the bunkers that the Illuminati have set up so as to when the president needs to go somewhere, when the nuclear Holocaust happens, that's where they're going to live and that's where America is going to rise from the ashes in
Starting point is 01:27:43 Denver underneath the airport. from the ashes in Denver. Yes. Underneath the airport. Into the mountains. Okay. Yes. And they do it here and in Switzerland. I couldn't do it. Too high. I don't do well with altitude. I'd rather be homeless here and just die.
Starting point is 01:28:00 Whenever I see I built a bunker in my house, the people seem to want to really live in this world, don't they? It's like, I got a bunker in my house in case a nuclear bomb drops just call it a day yeah fucking hell yeah I'm not sure if you've watched any of these shows. I've got to live in there for 10 years eating beans do I? Nah I just call it a day. Who watches? Who watches? I'm short already. Imagine watching the walking dead and going I want a part of that. That's LA for you. All right. So anyway, I've got some other news stories if you want to, we should probably wrap it up. Wrap up.
Starting point is 01:28:31 I think we've, we've talked a lot about Hitler and masturbating this episode. I think we've covered all the hot topics. Nothing else in your world you'd like to discuss? Well, no, no. Me and, uh, I'm recording this special. That's all I'm focused on at the moment is doing that. When I say all that I've focused on, I should be doing more work, but I'm thinking about it. And the snakes coming out. The 1% club just is killing it in the ratings in Australia. So thank you everyone watching the 1% club. I love doing that show. And then
Starting point is 01:29:03 that's good to go. I don't do political talk shows anymore. I'm a game show host and for a hundred thousand dollars, you know, it's very, it's good. You know what's good about being a game show host? You get to give money to people. You're making people happy all the time. It's a bit of fun. It's a bit of fun. Why don't you put the home, why don't you put the homeless on game shows? They're the ones that need the fucking prize. Well, they're not smart enough, are they? They can't get the questions right.
Starting point is 01:29:26 They could possibly win the floor. They could possibly win the floor because the floor, what is your specialty topic? Homeless tents? That's what you call a bindle? That's a handkerchief on the end of a stick? That's a dreadlock. A lot of homeless people hyper-focus.
Starting point is 01:29:44 But I have a team at the homeless college near me. But Tony, they'd crash the floor, and also they'd get a week of the floor. So they'd be like, if you were homeless, wouldn't you want to enter Big Brother? You'd be like, oh, I want to go on Big Brother. That's what I mean. I think we should put the homeless in a dystopian future, just only the homeless on there to win these games. There's a homeless guy next to me. You know what he says to me every day?
Starting point is 01:30:04 He wanders around and he always goes, don't drink the water. I go, how come? And I'm one of the few that talks to him because I've got no life. You know, I'll sit down. He goes, they're shrinking people. I said, who? He goes, the government puts shit in the water to shrink you because human beings used to be giants and the elites make us poisoned and stay small because if we all weren't poisoned with the
Starting point is 01:30:29 shrinking fluid, we'd over rise them all. So don't drink water and you'll be 12 feet tall. So how's he staying alive? There used to be a bloke in Venice when I lived there called Knuckles and Knuckles was like a legless bloke on a skateboard who used to just drag himself around with these Knuckles like just and these Knuckles were these gnarled up fucking like good to go and he always had a really pretty sunny disposition. I always used to look at him and I used to think this guy's just got a skateboard and no legs and he's always got a smile. Maybe there's something to it.
Starting point is 01:31:11 Well, having not, listen, we spoke about the Dalai Lama being an American next. An American homeless person with a sunny disposition is as good as the Dalai Lama can be because the whole point of that is liberate yourself from wants and possessions and just lay on the beach in California and be at one. And maybe that's a good place to end is that the American homeless are the real heirs of the Dalai Lama because they have freed themselves of the system and they are happy with the sun. So to summarize, the American dream is being homeless.
Starting point is 01:31:44 That is peak American dream is to realize it was a nightmare all along. And the real dream is to live in a community of shanty tents on the beach. That's God's real gift. The ocean. Good night. You
