But that's how it is now with every, even my buddy was up for a job at the New York Times. They kept her, they keep you all the way up until you and somebody else. Yeah, but they want you to be roped in just in case that person says no. Yeah, because they get off on giving us hope. It's like playing the field.
Starting point is 00:02:50 It's like being single. Like, I'm just going to turn any of you down. I've got to make everybody feel special. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I have to get better at that. I'm so bad. I immediately sit. At dating multiple people and making them all feel, I'm always like, you're number two, just so you know.
Starting point is 00:03:04 You are. Way on the back burner. I'm like on my phone the whole time for number one. I'm like, what do you think I should say to number one? That legit happened last year.

Starting point is 00:03:21 so I'm going to go on a date with another guy. I'm like, you are. See you next Tuesday. I can't even. gonna go bowl with his friends I'm gonna go on a date with another guy the world has got to be so fucked now with with dude I was saying about that about like dude marriage used to be like so easy cool because why because imagine where I would be right now you'd be the computer guy yeah yeah I know I know I would be right now. You'd be sitting with computer guy. With your head. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know, I know. I'd be just icing you up.
Starting point is 00:03:47 You look like the guy from Mario Monsters who holds his eyeballs in his hand. That is who you look like. That's who you should audition for. Yeah, yeah. A fucking monster. That's great. I'm glad I came here.
Starting point is 00:04:01 You bitch. No. Oh, yeah. Fucking. Marriage was cool, yeah. Fucking... Marriage was cool and easy. It used to be so easy because you met someone, and then you met five other people for the rest of your life, and then now it's just fucking hot things at you all the time,
Starting point is 00:04:15 and then I see a butt model, and I'm like, if I give a fire emoji, maybe they'll like me. And it's kind of possible. You know what I mean? I know. The top butt models, no. But like the middle of the road ones, yeah. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:28 It's like, yeah, I used to know one person who was like, she's the prettiest girl I probably ever will meet. Yeah. And then you got out of the Holland Tunnel and you're like, never mind. Look at this. Realistically, before you got married, like back in the day you probably met like seven people
Starting point is 00:04:47 capable partners yes you were talking about all the men you met you cut that in half lesbians whatever cut that in half people who aren't
Starting point is 00:04:54 your attractive level cut that in half and you probably met seven people who were like okay we actually are on the same type level and then it's like
Starting point is 00:05:01 do you tolerate me oh we whittle it down to like one person and then you get married. I feel like you meet less people now. What? But you see them. You see them and have access.
Starting point is 00:05:12 Oh, yeah. With the apps, that's such a, it's like a, it's a synthetic communication. No, yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah, but apps didn't exist before. But I don't just mean like, oh, you DM for a little bit. I'm saying like, I think it's harder to date now because everybody is so, there's such a no new friends mentality.
Starting point is 00:05:28 Whereas I feel like in the 40s, it was like, what's your name, Chuck? But now it's like. Yeah, but what I'm saying is there's so much access to people. You have pussy flying at you. Yes. Yeah. Especially since I got that blue check on Instagram. You got it on Twitter?
Starting point is 00:05:44 The chuckle fucks are ruining people's lives. They got it on Twitter? The chuckle fucks are ruining people's lives. They are ruining people's lives. Chuckle fuckers? Yeah. Like three of my buddies recently have been like,
Starting point is 00:05:52 have showed me just novels of somebody being like, ah! Yeah, dude, I can't. I don't play with that. I'm pretty surprised at, I guess I'm not surprised because I just understand
Starting point is 00:06:03 the world, but the level of women that some comics get, I'm like, wow. It's unreal. Dude, I've gotten David Tell roll-off. In Tennessee, I got a blowjob because some chick couldn't get a tell. And I was like, meh. Close enough. And I had a voiceover audition due the next day.
Starting point is 00:06:22 So I hid under a blanket while she watched Forensic Files next to me and did my voiceover in my phone. And I got sucked off in the shower. High five. What goes through that girl's head? I'm not talking about you. Be an Ian with Jordan. I'm almost explicitly talking about you, Ian.
Starting point is 00:06:46 Why? It's incredible. Why? Just that you'll fuck very beautiful women. It's crazy. I know. I know. Because I look like all their dads.
Starting point is 00:06:56 That's what works out. You know? You hate that? Is that like a... That men get so much? I live with two very hot male comics. Okay. And it is frustrating to watch.
Starting point is 00:07:08 First of all, it's not just the DMs. It's like a line of women waiting outside for them to be, you know what I mean? And then they're like, your show was great. And then you'll see them go over to another comic that they are doing that as well. And they have all their bases covered in the cellar. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They have a system. One night, sorry. One night, one of my buddies
Starting point is 00:07:26 like made out with a girl and then the other guy and then they all accidentally ran into each other with a girl in the middle and she just had to like be like, well,
Starting point is 00:07:34 and disappear into darkness behind her. They're like, well, her cocks are out. Why would she just gotta make this happen? And it happens to women. It just happens in a way
Starting point is 00:07:42 that's like, oh, it's like, first of all, it's like incels happens in a way that's like, oh, it's like, um, first of all, it's like incels. It's also like weird, for me, it's like weird dudes with like sublime shirts and like maybe a fitted, maybe like etnies. I'm saying full etnies.
Starting point is 00:07:56 I'm going hard het. Lucky gal, let me tell you. But then the other thing is that there's like, hey, I'm upstairs. Come join me for a drink. And it's like, for a woman, that's so different to go do. If I went and did that, it would be the most sad, desperate. You get guys that were like in the jackass in high school and all have head injuries
Starting point is 00:08:15 from like pushing themselves in shopping carts. No, that's what I'm into. I was going to say, what's up? That is what I'm looking for. Like guys who self-identify as the kid, that is who I did. You know what I mean? But, yeah, I mean more like – So, wait, if you get hit up by a guy who's like, love your comedy –
Starting point is 00:08:35 I'm at the Olive Tree. Join me for a drink? Yeah, you want to do it. Fuck no. Because we're not – or at least I'm not at all motivated by looks. So even if they're hot, then I'm like, well, I don't want to talk to a hot person because they're retarded. And then if they're not hot, then I'm like, I don't want to talk to an uggo. Wow.
Starting point is 00:08:53 The intellectual's dilemma. So who are you looking for? Yeah. If it's somebody in a band, I'll talk to them. Oh, dude, she's a band chick. So then you just become the groupie, though. That's better. I would rather be that than be like, what's your banshee. So then you just become the groupie, though. That's better. I would rather be that than be like, what's your favorite comic?
Starting point is 00:09:08 I love Aziz Ansari, and I have to fucking run a poll through my account. Yeah, see, at least the girls are shallow. They're just like, hey, you're on stage, and you seem to be popular and have power. I'll fuck you. Whereas the guys are going to be like, let's talk about comedy for hours. Who's your favorite comic, and what do you like to do? Also, the guys will be like, dude, I about comedy for hours. Who's your favorite comic and what do you like to do? Also, the guys will be like, dude, I think you're
Starting point is 00:09:27 so funny. You're great. Can I fuck? They use the whatever and then girls just kind of go in and be flirty off the bat. A lot of them will send voice note novels. I have this one chick that just keeps sending voice notes. I don't even respond.
Starting point is 00:09:43 Saying like talking dirty and shit? No, no, no. Just about like an Instagram story I posted. They're like, I heard you say this on a podcast, blah, blah, blah, blah. But then like, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:53 Terrible. I'm so disappointed by my gender. Yeah, me too. I'm so disappointed by my fucking species. But then girls will get guys that hit on them and then when the girl doesn't respond, they'll be like, you fucking bitch. I don't like you anyway.
Starting point is 00:10:08 It's like, hey, I love your comedy so much. And I'm like, I heart it or something. And they're like, oh, no response? You're a whore. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You're a whore. It is not. Where women are so psychotic, they'll just keep going.
Starting point is 00:10:19 Right, right. My responses are always a lot sadder than you're a whore. When you get a picture DMT or something like that, and I struggle so badly responding. I was like, whoa. It'll be a cat fox like, fuck me. Aluga. And then it's sadder for them.
Starting point is 00:10:42 It's way sadder. It would be better to ignore it. Well, because they're getting kind of rejected by a guy that wakes up with food stuck to him. You know? Crumbs in the bed.

Starting point is 00:17:14 And yeah. And then we just stayed friends. That's a deeper story than most ones. You guys heard the podcast. And it was really cool. We did Cellar Vegas together last year and we went to Red rocks and uh man i i guess i just never uh i've just heard about red rocks more in the past two years than i've ever fucking heard about really yeah oh i think because of oar i knew red rocks a lot like oh i guess just as i got more it's a comedy
Starting point is 00:17:42 it's 3 a.m and I want to go to bed. You speak ill on OAR. We'll kick you out right now. Dude, I loved OAR. I loved it. Drop the D. Drop the D. I'm not even kidding.
Starting point is 00:17:54 Their new album is very good. Really? Yeah. I feel like the way you guys talk about OAR is the way I talk about Ska. Yeah. I can see that. Yeah, definitely. I kind of, Ska is, you know. I love Ska, too, though.
Starting point is 00:18:05 I do love Ska. It's super embarrassing to love, but it's awesome. It's definitely the most embarrassing music to like. When my ex left me. Put your eyeballs down. And walked. When my ex. With shoulders.
Starting point is 00:18:20 That's why you look so jacked. His arms are always up. I wish we had just gotten you two eyeballs for Halloween. Yeah, that would be it, man. That would be so good. Oh, yeah. That was a you look so jacked. His arms are always up. I wish we had just gotten you two eyeballs for Halloween. That would be so good. That was a hot dog, though. A lot of hot dogs are out there this year. Yeah, me, to Stefano, to Rosa, her, and I shared all the same outfit.
Starting point is 00:18:36 Disgusting. It was gross. Are you serious? Oh, that is disgusting. Yeah, it was great. My costume was soaked in sweat after one wear. If I was sharing it with someone else, that would be vile. Yeah, it was great. It was awesome. My costume was soaked in sweat after one wear. If I was sharing it with someone else, that would be vile. Yeah, it was terrible.
Starting point is 00:18:49 But, dude, when my ex left me, she goes, and by the way, just so you know, I hate Scott. No! And I was like, dude, that's what you said. Just tell me I have a little dick. God damn it. Just be normal. Say that I'm gay and I don't fuck you.
Starting point is 00:19:03 Don't put it in the car. You said you liked it. Yeah. That's hilarious. She had the worst music taste though. All of her music sounded like it was like I don't know, like a lesbian on her period making soup. Like it was just like sad whispering.
Starting point is 00:19:19 I would just have to sit there with them fighting. Will you please turn off your stepfather whispering that he's going to molest you? Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then, because we all went on a road gig together, a buddy of mine was like, dude, you got to listen to this podcast called Human Monsters. It's great. Shut the fuck up.
Starting point is 00:19:35 Like all these murder things. Yo, this was next level worst predator murder podcast I've ever heard in my life because the guy interviewed a woman that was like sexually abused and then like something happened but it was a phone interview and he was like uh so what did it feel like when his fingers would go in your pussy it was insane it was like an autistic person being like and when and we're reading you say I want to stick my big dick into his tiny ass how did you feel when you stuck your big dick? It was the most vulgar, like abrasive, like specific thing.
Starting point is 00:20:09 And then because they were on a phone call, it was like, okay, so I have to go grocery shopping. We will talk about it later. That's not your bit. Do you have that bit? We talked about it. And then he turned it into a bit. You were sitting on the stairs and I was like remember at the end how they would hang up?
Starting point is 00:20:27 And they'd be like I have to call my mom. I gotta go buddy. Bye. Oh do you do that on stage? Yeah yeah yeah. So someone once said Is that working? I do that shit all the time. You hear so much comedy and then you're like
Starting point is 00:20:44 like dude the other day I texted a bunch of friends I was like does anyone have this bit? I do that shit all the time. Oh, yeah. I know. You hear so much comedy, and then you're like – Dude, the other day I texted a bunch of friends. I was like, does anyone have this bit? They were like, no, no. And I was like, wow. Congrats, man. You've had an original thought. Actually, I just watched the latest thing you put up.
Starting point is 00:20:57 I thought it was a good original thought. It was the airplane. That's my bit! Shut up. No, I'm kidding. The bisexual one is possibly weird like
Starting point is 00:21:06 yeah like we're just gonna pack a couple hundred people in here and go up there and everybody be cool yeah it's nuts like there's definitely
Starting point is 00:21:14 just statistically speaking couple hundred people one or two of those people are psychotic nobody goes nuts and two or three of those people are assholes
Starting point is 00:21:23 and four or five of those people are loudmouths. But for the most part, when you consider how many flights fly a day, it's like a 99% success rate. It's crazy. Nobody takes a shit on the airplane. Nobody even has a loud Tourette's outlet. It never happens.
Starting point is 00:21:37 Well, why is it there are no laws on international waters, but up in the sky, everyone's like, I'm a good citizen. Yeah, what is with that? Right? It is crazy. wouldn't that be the place to like go nuts sometimes i think they release something in the in the circulated air yeah i just don't understand i've never heard people get into a well because flying is so important for like commerce and travel if you fuck up flying you're fucked for a long time so
Starting point is 00:22:01 everyone's like that we can't fuck, those, those like rules of like, if you fuck up on this flight, you're not going to be able to fly for a long time. It's almost like religion of like, why better not sin so I can go to heaven. I see the same thing about, uh, uh,
Starting point is 00:22:14 traffic rules. Like you think about how many people are just like, I'm going to break the law and murder someone, but then I'll get in my car and I'll like do a full stop. Yeah. Yeah. Like you'll, you'll follow,
Starting point is 00:22:24 you know, the, well, if I'm running late, sometimes Sometimes I would use red lights as stop signs. Well, yeah. I read every red light and then I hit my motorcycle. A little word from our sponsor, GameTime. GameTime is a ticketing app that makes it easier than ever to score last minute deals on tickets to sports, concerts,
Starting point is 00:22:39 and shows. They guarantee the lowest price. If you haven't given GameTime a shot yet, I don't know what you're waiting for. You guys are going to love the app. It is what we all use to go to games. If you've seen a Barstool person at a game recently, it's because of GameTime.

This motherfucker didn't know about the Halloween parade. He goes, is there some sort of Greenwich Village thing going on on Halloween? I was like, ah, yeah. Dude, my mom didn't either.
Starting point is 00:24:15 My mom was like, were people dressed up? I live with your mom. Yeah, they're both out of touch looney tunes. There you go, yeah. I live like a literal block and a half from where like the so I turn the TV on and NY1 comes on right away yeah so I love NY1 and it was just like
Starting point is 00:24:31 this massive parade and it zoomed out and I saw the streets and I was like wait that's where I live and they're like there are a million people out here and I was like is there a big West Village Halloween parade there they were interviewing people from like Germany and Brazil who who flew in for it. What?
Starting point is 00:24:46 And I had... Yeah, there's like Batmans who go together. Yeah. I had no idea. I always thought it was just people in outfits going places in New York. I didn't realize it was an actual parade. The whole joke is like,
Starting point is 00:24:59 is it Halloween or is it just New York? Because sometimes it's like, are you here for the parade or are you just on your commute? Well, dude, so me and Homeless Pimp did interviews and stuff at Pride, and then we did it at Halloween parade. And dude, everyone was so nice and friendly and fun and let's talk, hug, oh my God, happy,
Starting point is 00:25:16 happy. And then the very next day, everyone's like, get out of my face, you fucking piece of shit. It's like, why can't we act like every day is a parade? For real, for real. Huh? Wouldn't't we act like every day is a parade? For real. Huh? Wouldn't life be better if every day was a parade? Let's act like every day is the day after 9-11. All we're talking about is the day after 9-11.
Starting point is 00:25:35 That was when America was together, dude. 9-12, 2001 was the best. That was a day. Let's all get together and hate anyone that's brown. Let's everyone get together and then start a rumor that the Indian kid that just so happened to be absent on 9-11 knew about it for some reason. Then he's got to come back to school and no one lets him in the debate club. Let's act like every day is like that. Isn't it weird that they made us watch it? At least in my school, they pulled in a big TV.
Starting point is 00:25:59 Did they? Yeah. Exactly. Why wouldn't they? It's like the most historic event you could ever be alive for. First of all, I was in fifth grade. Oh, yeah. How did that. Why wouldn't they? It's like the most historic event you could ever be alive for. First of all, I was in fifth grade. Oh, yeah. How old were you guys?
Starting point is 00:26:08 I was in eighth. I was 37. I was in junior year of high school. It should have been junior high school, I get it. Middle school, I get it. Elementary school to have the crying teacher pulling the... That is nuts. I just would be like, this is happening.
Starting point is 00:26:22 And you're like, here? Check it out, kids. The second one's about to hit. Meanwhile, kids your age. I just knew to go home. I just left school and went home. I think it was a girl. I was too young to deal with it.
Starting point is 00:26:34 I went to the chapel and prayed because I was like, the world is ending. I was like all those pray guys at the end of Ghostbusters that were like, oh, the end of the world. I was like, I need to atone. I was like, we're definitely atone. I was like, we're definitely going to get school off tomorrow. They can't make us
Starting point is 00:26:49 come in tomorrow, right? I made a game out of it on the playground where I would pretend that we were going to get bombed and we would all hide under the playground
Starting point is 00:26:55 and I'd be like, it's 9-11. What? Yeah, me too. It was so fun. See, we haven't been on so well. Did you call the game 9-11?
Starting point is 00:27:05 It sounds awesome Did you say like Hey guys let's play 9-11? I think I called it like terrorist I'm serious We played a game called guns It was called guns And we ran around the neighborhood
Starting point is 00:27:14 With fake guns I made the best games Freeze tag where you had to Give somebody a kiss In order to get unfrozen It was an ugly kiss You were a child molester child That's a crazy game.
Starting point is 00:27:25 You had to date me and love me to get unfrozen. I wanted to be kissed. So bad. Jordan's just running like the guy at the end of Terminator trying to tag people. Tag, you're hit. Love me. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:27:43 She's morphing. Puts a needle through her oh man that's great that is hilarious Terminator is so yeah yeah some kid gets picked up in carpool she latches on her back she's getting trapped.
Starting point is 00:28:05 He's pulling doors over. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. He's got some kid's backpack. Got you. Oh, really good. Terminator really is so good. That was a great quick subject change from Terrorist the Game. Terrorist the Game.
Starting point is 00:28:21 Terrorist the Game does sound dope, just to be clear. Just not, you know, maybe. So fun Such a fun game There were other games I can just picture you Just screaming on the playground It's 9-11
Starting point is 00:28:30 Kids hiding under mulch The mulch We dig under the mulch It was so fun Because I think they were Sending like helicopters There were like helicopters In the following days
Starting point is 00:28:43 Remember that? Yes They were watching the skies. So I would pretend they had bombs, and I would tell all the kids, I'd be like, yeah, that's a bomb. What kind of fucking sick, twisted mind do you have? Where was this?
Starting point is 00:28:54 This was in Ithaca. So upstate. Oh, yeah, she grew up in a barn with cat sisters. Ithaca's got to be the worst place in the world now. Isn't that the suicide capital? What? No way, really? Cornell. Yes. Cornell's in Ithaca.? Isn't that the suicide capital? What? No way, really? Cornell.
Starting point is 00:29:05 Yes. Cornell School. Cornell's in Ithaca. Suicide rate, yeah. Right? Right. Yes. And a lot of, look it up.
Starting point is 00:29:12 I think it's a college thing. The Asians get a B on their test and they jump off the gorge. That's some Ivy League shit. I would imagine Harvard's pretty calm. No, the reason is because we have giant pits that go into the death. And it also has the highest acceptance of Asians. So the Asian kids will get a B and just plummet to their death. In the beginning of the 1970s, a high-profile cluster of six suicides.
Starting point is 00:29:41 Six? That's not so bad. Yeah, wait. Six? Dude, when I went to NYU. But then it says in the 2009 to 2010 school year, so I don't know what the fuck that means. Yo, bro. When I went to NYU my freshman year, all these kids were jumping off the balconies in the library.
Starting point is 00:29:54 I remember that. And they had to put up these barriers. My friend- But there was- So, you know the Harvard Lampoon? Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. So, NYU had one of those called The Plague or whatever.
Starting point is 00:30:06 And I'll never forget, I got a bunch of copies. The cover of The Plague that month was a girl with her wrists all cut up. Stop, stop, okay. And then there was a story about it because it was like a satire publication. And there was a picture of the library with Jerry Seinfeld falling upside down. And it said, what's the deal with Jerry Seinfeld falling upside down and it said, what's the deal with all these suicides? It was incredible.
Starting point is 00:30:30 I have it in my mom's house. You have that poster? Yeah. That's so good. It was incredible. It was incredible. That makes me think of my favorite piece of merch I ever saw at a concert.
Starting point is 00:30:43 I went to a Fall Out Boy show in like 07, 06, something like that. Oh, that was prime Fall Out Boy. Yeah, prime Fall Out Boy. Before Pete Wentz jerked off in a parking lot on Xanax. You remember that? I don't know that. I didn't know that. I didn't know that either.
Starting point is 00:30:57 Look it up. I believe you. I also know Christopher Walken killed a woman. What? He didn't kill a woman. Don't start that ruver. He was on aen killed a woman. What? He didn't kill a woman. Don't start that, Ruver. He was on a boat when a woman died. That doesn't mean he killed a woman.
Starting point is 00:31:11 How'd she die? She fell off. But I didn't know anything about that. I've never heard of that. Once you said boat, it's something crazy. Oh, really? Okay. It's kind of like the Broderick.
Starting point is 00:31:22 Like the Broderick. I learned that like five years ago. Oh, yeah. He killed someone in his car. Oh, he actually Okay. It's kind of like the Broderick. Like the Broderick. I learned that like five years ago. Oh, yeah. He killed someone in his car. Oh, he actually killed someone. Yeah. And he got like a... Was he drunk?
Starting point is 00:31:32 I would imagine so, but he was in England and it doesn't count there. It was like he got like a... So did Caitlyn Jenner. Yes. Yes. That's right. Caitlyn Jenner. Brandy.
Starting point is 00:31:40 Brandy? Brandy killed a guy, yeah. Oh, my God. A particular manslaughter probably I think it was. Who cares about Brandy? Why are you guys freaking out about that? I'm really excited about Brandy. That was crazy.
Starting point is 00:31:51 I know. Like I was a dear friend with Brandy. Not my Brandy. My Brandy? That's nuts. Cinderella Brandy? It is crazy though that we just rattled off like four or five people real quick that killed people and had nothing happen. It is crazy.
Starting point is 00:32:10 Like, no punishment. They have money. I know, I know. But, like, at some point, like, I don't think Brandy is famous enough to be able to kill someone and get away with it. It has nothing to do with fame. It has to do with money. And it just so happens, famous people have money. Doesn't everybody just get released at home, jail?
Starting point is 00:32:30 Yeah, probably. When I worked in a halfway house... He's the best, by the way. Oh, don't leave your house for like a year. Yeah, we already did that during COVID. And everyone lost their fucking mind. Oh, I loved it. I loved it.
Starting point is 00:32:42 I hated it. Oh, my boys. Just hanging out with the boys. Oh oh yeah you had a good roommate situation i had craigslist roommates that stayed in the rooms the entire time yeah well that sucks yeah so many shows over the pandemic oh yeah that saved me holy moly guacamole we got super close over the pandemic yes because me and you were that's right drug addicts yeah well i was x you were doing no not drug addicts but you know what i mean, for comedy. And we would do every single show.
Starting point is 00:33:07 Even that 4 p.m. one on a roof. Oh, on a roof. Like an art collective. It was fucking nuts, dude. It sounds terrible. Yeah, and the guy who ran it is like a DJ, but he's a comic, but he's bisexual.
Starting point is 00:33:22 Every time he brings me on stage, he's like, I hate this next comic because I want to be the bisexual comic. I'm like, oh, fucking kill yourself. The pandemic was good for comedy, at least for me. Oh, my God. The pandemic was the best thing in the world. It made me such a better comic. The comedy industry.
Starting point is 00:33:40 It made me such a better comic. Because, dude, half the times we didn't have microphones So I had to like learn Like how to move around It made me feel so much more comfortable Like moving around and being wild and crazy And half the time I was like I'm not doing jokes
Starting point is 00:33:56 I'm just going to talk about whatever And then I'd walk through the crap Because it was like dude I would do these zoom shows And people would just read off their jokes I'm like, what? Did you know Jake, who features for me, Jake Velasquez, very funny comic. Me and him, we didn't know each other then, but we both saw you at the tiny cupboard and have your religious set. Oh, no shit.
Starting point is 00:34:15 That was the craziest. Ian had a set on top of the tiny cupboard that was like, it was like next level comedy. I mean, I was like double. I was on a date with a guy and I was like snotting and crying and like spewing. And I like turned to look at him and he was also. And I was like, hell yeah. And he like the train went by and he was talking about his dead dad. But then somebody released a balloon and he had a call back to the.
Starting point is 00:34:36 And we were just like, this is like a perfect game. Like, oh, my God. It was. Thanks. And you were you had just come up to me and you're like, I'm going to a break. I want to kill myself. I don't know. Oh, God. It was awesome. Thanks. And you had just come up to me and you were like, I'm going to a break. I don't even want to kill myself. I don't even want to do chain smoking. And then you just go up and annihilate.
Starting point is 00:34:51 Did you know what she's talking about? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Did you know in the moment you were doing it? Like you were doing that well? Yeah. I mean, I was just like going. I've always wondered that. That was like a moment where I was like,
Starting point is 00:35:01 just stay in that moment of being like insane. I had that last night at the VU. And I think it's because with all the sadness that's where the thriving happens yeah it's weird when shit's like going well I have to create better when I'm everything's good and I'm happy and things
Starting point is 00:35:17 are great like that is the mode for me to feel good and be wonderful and like progress but when things are bad going on stage like harnessing that in some way and that's the same for like a lot of people sure like comics would be like i've never been more depressed in my life and they'll just go and like annihilate well that's why i think some comics feel like they can't you know like get help or get right being stopped drinking or being an addict or whatever because like oh it won't be funny anymore yes that's not
Starting point is 00:35:43 really how it works so i don't think you can just lose a night of sleep literally i mean like last night i didn't have any sleep oh i'm on right now i've slept five hours in the past 48 you can artificially create turmoil you can do too much coffee you can do so how can you but i just you know the whole thing is because i have buddies who are like i'm worried without alcohol and it's like dude you'll feel fucked up every other day there's so much crazy shit that But I just, you know, the whole thing is, because I have buddies who are like, I'm worried without alcohol. And it's like, dude, you'll feel fucked up every other day. There's so much crazy shit that, but it also is like, I don't know, the post breakup mid somebody's dumping you, there's nothing like that.
Starting point is 00:36:17 I mean, it is crazy. Because you don't care. Yeah, that is true. You're like, fuck all of you. Nobody loves me. So I'm just going to go nuts. And then you crush. It is good.
Starting point is 00:36:26 It is really good. I've been watching so much Sebastian Maniscalco that last night I just did full ham, like huge face and body move. And it was so fun. It was great. And I was terrified because I went up after Quinn and Sam Morrell. Oh, yikes. And it was, yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:41 I like, let's say my mom. Dude, she holds her own, man. She's fucking great yeah when did your so the podcast started in the pandemic or did i get that wrong no no we tried to do a podcast what we call futon philosophy uh exactly and uh i've always found like if you if you don't have a name that is like perfect and crushes it's better to just be like here's my podcast yeah Yeah, yeah. You need a great name like KFC Radio.
Starting point is 00:37:09 Yes. Where everyone thinks it's about food. We've had people come on and be like, so are we talking about chicken? No. We're not talking about chicken. It's just too old now. No! Is that what happened? Yeah. Thanks, Mark. Great.
Starting point is 00:37:28 So what are you talking about chicken? What does KFC stand for? My stupid initials. If you ever need some oil, we got you. Wow, I'm attracted to that. Why is that? Why? It's probably what you farm girl used as lube when you were younger.
Starting point is 00:37:43 I don't know. Being up in Ithaca. Did you see the movie Titane where she fucks a car? Yes. I couldn't resonate more. What? I know. How did she fuck it?
Starting point is 00:37:51 Oh, yeah. She gets horny for cars. Like metal. We'll be walking. She's like, look at that boxed up Jeep. Yeah. Dude, my motorcycle. Yeah, it is.
Starting point is 00:37:59 I was going to say, I sure got that motorcycle. Oh, and it's like old. It's really, really good. But this does it for me. Yeah, we had a squeaky chair that you could hear like on the podcast why did you buy that big how did your fans have it in like to be a dickhead oh that's nice this show is sponsored by better help unfortunately life doesn't come with a user manual so when it's not working for you it's normal to feel stuck
Starting point is 00:38:20 navigating any of life's challenges can make you feel unsure whether it's a career change a new relationship or becoming a parent therapists are trained to help you figure out the cause of challenging emotions and learn productive coping skills, which makes therapy the closest thing to a guided tour of the complex engine called you. I obviously have been to therapy quite often. It is an important part of my week. It helps me kind of get things together. It's a nice little break from reality where I can learn more about reality, if that makes any sense.
Starting point is 00:38:47 But I get to take a step back and just observe things through a different lens.

Starting point is 00:39:19 dot com slash KFC. But yeah, this is just my initials. It was a stupid name that I gave it back when we started a very long time ago. Honestly, we kind of stole it, to be honest. Oh, yeah. No, we had this logo come out, but we are going to renovate. And when we went to do your podcast, I think I told you, I was like, that was awesome.
Starting point is 00:39:44 Because we did this for so long here, and it feels told you, I was like, that was awesome because we did this for so long here and it feels like you're on a show with a desk and we were just like sitting on the couch smoking cigs
Starting point is 00:39:51 and like talking and it was, I thought we had like the funniest podcast ever. Yeah. It was like, it was great. Flowing,
Starting point is 00:39:57 I was like, we need something like this. I feel like you're just kind of hanging out. Well, it feels like you're in like a basement hanging out with your buddy
Starting point is 00:40:03 and your mom's not home and you're like having a sleepover. This kind of feels like that too. You got the, well, yeah. It's like you're in a basement hanging out with your buddy and your mom's not home. You're having a sleepover. This kind of feels like that, too. You got the... Well, yeah. It's like the vibe and the people on it, but the environment of our studio. This feels a little more like you're on a podcast.
Starting point is 00:40:15 Yeah. No, it's dog shit in here. I mean, not dog shit. I don't mean like... Fuck you, computer guy. You think it's way nicer than it is. Yeah, yeah. It doesn't feel like I'm on a podcast.
Starting point is 00:40:24 It feels like I'm in the storage room that you guys got stuffed into. Which is cool. Yeah. Which is a good... You should get the Down Syndrome Sports Illustrated. I want that more than anything. The Down Syndrome model. Yeah, is that out?
Starting point is 00:40:37 I don't know. Did that happen? Yes. She's like obsessed with it. I need to get it signed. How did you do that? Is that... Is that, is that Peter?
Starting point is 00:40:46 That's signed by like a pen with the Downsend girl. She'll just sign in crayon. Yeah. That would be great. If somebody could get that. Be an Ian with George. Patreon.com slash be an Ian pod. Anyway.
Starting point is 00:40:58 Yeah. So we started the podcast. Yeah. You had me on and then. Well, it was supposed to just be me. I was going to say, I didn't even know well it was supposed to just be me i was gonna say the podcast we did is actually your show as well but we only did it with i didn't want to do it with you guys i got it well she didn't want to do it with like guests so but my thing was like it's being in and it's my thing and then i got uh wes schultz of the lumineers to do the theme song and i was like well it's stuck i wrote the lyrics he did the song and i was like well it's stuck in
Starting point is 00:41:33 this and then she was my first guest and it was so fucking good i was like you know what fuck it let's do it together but the name was like well what do we do with the name so then we named it beanie and with jordan and then it was like do we but the name was like well what do we do with the name so then we named it being ian with jordan and then it was like do we change the name whatever and then now just kind of no just stick around so long that it gets it's like a bad name and then it kind of comes back around yeah it's so bad that it's but it works out like in the song it's like being ian with jordan yeah also like it really the name does not matter yeah you know in very few instances I think the podcast name matters
Starting point is 00:42:06 the rest of it is just like it could be you know the Tom Smith show and if it's really fucking funny and people like it that's all it is but now it's like
Starting point is 00:42:13 totally our thing it's like guests whatever no guests whatever and it's fun and like I'll do headlining sets
Starting point is 00:42:19 and people will be like be an Ian and I'll be like what Jordan yeah yeah yeah or people come up and be like be an Ian
Starting point is 00:42:24 what Jordan yeah yeah that jordan yeah yeah yeah yeah or people come up and be like be an ian with jordan yeah yeah that's fine yeah yeah yeah yeah it's great and we moved the couch so now we're like decorating better with like us and everything but again like my my ex left me and immediately i redid the basement into a studio and was like, fuck it. I'm focusing on this. And then when she came together, shit, she was like, oh, you can do this in a week, but you couldn't do this for a year and a half. I was like, yes, because you were not going to make me money. I love this. I love you. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:00 There is, unfortunately, when you can't do both at, like, its highest level, I don't think. I think that is, like, one of the great tragedies of, like, human life is that you can try really hard and come really close. Well, I think that's. You will always, like, if you don't have, you got to, there's only so many hours in a day and so much effort you can put into certain things. Well, I think that's a tragedy being, like, creative. Yeah. Like an artist and working in a thing where you have to, like things and focus on like we're we're only as good and we're only getting as much work as we're like putting into it and then if you put a relationship over that it's like where you're gonna lose out you're gonna
Starting point is 00:43:36 miss the relationship came after i started this thing that is my love right right and it sucks for a lot of people to be like oh i'm number two right oh you're away a lot fuck you but i'll date the guy that sits at the bar at the end of the night and is a union elevator operator ugly doofus yeah he's so unattractive yeah do not worry about it and i am attractive because i look like the monster I really do people love that monster but people who focus don't have an artistic outlet and focus
Starting point is 00:44:08 and put their their relationship first and foremost that doesn't go well either no not at all because it's not you're supposed to be
Starting point is 00:44:14 a supplemental support it's not supposed to be like your life that's why I'm finding like dating someone Tom Brady made Giselle didn't buy it yeah she didn't take that
Starting point is 00:44:22 dating someone like that is a comic or in a band is a lot better because then you have creative things you can like talk about and like push each other
Starting point is 00:44:29 date yeah within that same world now like we help each other with self tapes and that like helps
Starting point is 00:44:35 you know or like I don't know like dating someone in a band you can relate to being on the road and in vans
Starting point is 00:44:40 that I think helps where it's like people who can understand your schedule I think is huge yeah it's like people who can understand your schedule, I think, is huge. Yeah. Because it's like I leave for days and weekends at a time. I miss holidays, all that shit.
Starting point is 00:44:51 I know. But the rest of it, I don't know if I – But it's like I'm willing. I would not want to sit around and talk about podcasting. I was going to say that's the worst when you get home. It's like, how was your day? It's like, I don't want to talk about it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:01 Because I already talked about it. Yeah, I've been talking since 9 a.m. I don't want to talk. Just shut up and let's watch 28 Days Haunted, the new haunted reality show on Netflix that I can't stop watching. It's not like it was a bad day. It's just, I don't want to talk anymore. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:13 And then it's like, why are you such a dickhead? You don't talk to me. Yeah. That's a fucked up thing is where you'll date somebody. At least for me, it's like you're on all the time, right? It's like podcasts. I'm on. Then you go do four shows.
Starting point is 00:45:23 You're on. You're on. And then you get back and you're like completely lobotom eyes and this person is like i thought i signed up to date like yeah yeah i work remotely now i haven't talked to a person in 12 hours yeah sorry yeah it's crazy yeah totally and you just both i think that is why i tend to date artists is for that reason where you're both like want to put our brains on ice for a second and it is like or just like want to just prioritize sex because it's the moment where we don't have you know what i mean but it is fuck and go to sleep yeah yeah but it is like i also think it's much better to uh be
Starting point is 00:45:56 where you're at and start dating someone and it's like this like you said like this is what i do like if you yeah you start if you just change kind of you're like, I used to only like do a couple spots. And now I'm selling out theaters all across the country. It's like, well, when we started dating, you know, it would go up like twice a week. Now you're going all over the country for six weeks at a time. Like off the bat now, they kind of get the deal because you're so busy and everything. And also, if you start dating someone, when you're only doing a couple spots they're like well
Starting point is 00:46:26 you know you don't need to keep going just stop women always want to change you do we know anybody where that's worked out where they've dated before oh Ismael and his wife are still together
Starting point is 00:46:41 he doesn't really do stand up anymore does he? if you don't see people around you you Does he? I haven't seen him in a while. If you don't see people running, you're like, oh, I don't think they exist. Are they dead? I also think it could be anything. We're talking about comedy here,
Starting point is 00:46:58 but any job where you all of a sudden take off or get more hours. I think that's different because a lot of athletes marry their high school person or the person they met in college. Because I think when you're an athlete, you really need someone cheering you on and really like – Especially if you're going to be massively famous. What? I didn't even hear what you said. I just think a lot of those sometimes are like, we're married, but I do whatever I want.
Starting point is 00:47:23 Yeah, well, it's an investment for a chick that's married. They're like, oh, we're going to be fucking millionaires. I will support you and I won't say anything. But also the guy needs to know he can fucking trust a down ass bitch and she's not going to try to, you know. It's one of the most beautiful things in the world, if you ask me. Oh, it's incredible. It's the most romantic thing in the world.
Starting point is 00:47:39 Yeah. I know. I do that when I date comics. I'm like, on the road, whatever. Really? That's. Because I'll get, you get, Yeah, because they can't help themselves. For you or for them?
Starting point is 00:47:49 I'm not fucking anybody. But why would I ever? I mean, maybe, but no. You're saying it's more like you let them fuck. Well, for me, it's like I'm going to stay up until 5 a.m. talking to somebody this close to my face and bond with them and then be like, bye. And for me, that's like emotional affair kind of thing
Starting point is 00:48:05 but yeah when I date comics I'm like when you're on the road you should fuck who you want because it's going to happen they're going to do it anyway very progressive because it's the it's the benefit of being
Starting point is 00:48:13 and usually if you date a comic they used to be a big stupid ugly dingus when they were kids so now it's like now they're kind of cashing in
Starting point is 00:48:19 making up for lost time so yeah and you think you're actually okay with that I don't want to know but yeah yeah I'm definitely... And you think you're actually okay with that? I don't want to know, but... Yeah, yeah, don't let me catch you. Deal! Do not let me find out.
Starting point is 00:48:30 Okay, so it's like you don't like it. Don't ask, don't tell. It's like being gay in the military in the 90s. No, no, I know how some people are like into it and they're like, oh, what did you two do? No, absolutely not. I will skin you alive if I find out. Just do it and don't let me find out.
Starting point is 00:48:45 Well, you evolved because initially you were like, I don't believe in monogamy. That's because I hated my boyfriend. People who say that are in relationships with people they don't like. I hated him. And we had such good sex. Oh, yeah. I remember.
Starting point is 00:49:01 Yeah, he showed up to Vegas. We'll let edit that out. Is that not good? It's fine, but it doesn't talk to me right now, and I don't want to make it worse. He's not going to watch this. I didn't hate him. It might. I didn't hate him.
Starting point is 00:49:14 Why? This isn't a video game. I'm going to kill myself. Never mind. It's all staying in now. Oh, that's great. He was up. This isn't a video game.
Starting point is 00:49:30 He's not going to watch. This isn't anime. This isn't a jam band in Sheboygan. He's not going to fucking care about this. I was just trying to shop around. I don't live in monogamy because I'm trying to find somebody else, but too codependent to end it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:47 Totally. Now I'm like, forever. But I still, yeah, I do believe in the you can fuck. Yeah, because it's part of the gig. Well, that's like an offshoot of non-monogamy. You kind of are like, I'll be monogamous to you, but you run and do as long as you are emotionally monogamous to me. Do you find that if you do that, they don't do it? Yeah. Is that true?
Starting point is 00:50:08 Yes. I think it's like a hall pass. It's kind of like, well, now I pull down. Dog pulling, pulling, pulling. Do you let it off? It's true. Yeah, and then the dog just licks its own ass. And here's the thing. If I say don't fuck anybody, when they fuck somebody, it's like, oh, I'm fucking up and I'm doing this thing the thing if i say don't fuck anybody when they fuck somebody it's like oh
Starting point is 00:50:25 i'm fucking up and i'm doing this thing but if you say go fuck who you want they fuck somebody and they're like i miss jordan she lets me do that she's such a good yeah yeah yeah totally yeah that's it's it's in the movie hall pass none of them fuck they their wives give them hall passes and they're like i can't do it oh yeah oh wait Is that the movie where he gives a fake oral? Yes. Dude, I watched that with my mom and her 86-year-old neighbor, Betty, and it was so awkward. Bro, what? Yeah. What are you doing watching movies with your neighbor? Because my mom and Betty are both widows, so they'd hang out.
Starting point is 00:50:58 And why are you there then? Because I was visiting, and I was like, this movie's funny. Or no, my mom was like like i heard this movie's good and we put it on it was the most uncomfortable i've ever been just radio betty how old you and my mom watching cunnilingus and i'm like oh it doesn't matter how old you are that is never gets better always be the worst thing in the world. A sex scene with your parents watching. It's brutal. Brutal. Yeah, no, that's... It is.
Starting point is 00:51:26 I thought once it was all acknowledged that I have sex too, and we're adults, and we talk about sex. It's gotten worse now. Yeah. I'll sit there, and I'm like,
Starting point is 00:51:36 this is fucking so bad. This is so fucking bad. Yeah. I mean, I got kids, and I still feel like we don't just throw a glass at TV. Yeah. Slipped. I don't know.

Starting point is 00:56:03 And Donna is like stepdad who, step dad who gives you weed and lets you borrow a truck. That sounds pretty cool. Yeah, it's a good setup. But it is like no female, no feminine role models at all. So now I'm just the most lost straight person in the entire world.
Starting point is 00:56:21 It is so hard. Our podcast is basically a competition to find out who's gay first. You guys are a great match in that sense. You are the antithesis of the gay kid who's like, I'm gay and I don't know what to do about it. You're like, I'm straight
Starting point is 00:56:38 and I don't know what to do about it. Our dynamic is that I almost bring the feminine energy. Yeah. It's like Feidelberg. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Totally. It's like Feidelberg. Yeah, I was going to say that's what I do. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:48 That's right. When you were giving advice yesterday and you were like, you need to go through the steps and I was like, you need to stop being a little bitch. Yeah, she's being mean. These people are like, the PageRot members are like,

Starting point is 00:57:25 The last two appearances He's crying For somebody who's all about women be women and men be men He's being a little bitch And also, hey Look, cry Don't film it and don't put it on the internet He did an interview with McConaughey and started crying
Starting point is 00:57:43 Yeah, that's what I'm saying He's going through like an emotional fucked up thing. Stop filming. Stop talking to people. Cry all you want, but keep it inside and hide it. He cried talking to McConaughey? Yeah. About what?
Starting point is 00:57:55 I didn't see the McConaughey one. I saw the Piers Morgan one where Olivia Wilde said, you know, you are like the king of the incels. She was like, fuck Jordan Peterson and everyone who follows him. You're all like incel assholes. And Piers Morgan was like, what do you think of that? And he was just like, oh, it hurts. Yeah. It hurts.
Starting point is 00:58:14 It just hurts when I hear that because, like, I think about everybody. It was just like. I mean, it's a pretty accurate description. He was basically being like, you're bullying and you're calling these young men insane. He cried about being bullied? Yes. Bro. Say your thing, but don't cry about crying off camera.
Starting point is 00:58:34 Dude, you can't cry about getting bullied when you're an adult, man. Especially when you're Jordan Peterson, who's kind of, his thing is like, I'll go toe-to-toe and we'll debate and we'll argue and all that shit. That's such a chick move to cry, so then you can't go at him and then you look like a bully. Look at this Jordan Peterson video I made.
Starting point is 00:58:50 You're really going to like it. What? You're really going to like it. Are you showing us the content you made? Yeah. You were killing it for so long. What are you doing? But it's really good.
Starting point is 00:59:00 All there. I'm just going to donut break anyway. It's all good. All right, fair enough. Can we pull it up on the screen? Yeah, can we do that fast? Can we also pull up on the screen? Yeah, can we do that fast? Can we also pull up on the screen a video of her being a fucking monster in our hotel room? I don't know if we could.
Starting point is 00:59:11 Oh. We'll put it in. We can put it in, yeah. Okay, ready? Mm-hmm. This is what this guy talks like? Sons of bitches Exactly
Starting point is 00:59:28 Precisely It looks just like him I can't see it I think that's my first time Ever hearing Jordan Peterson talk That's the whole thing about it He talks like this. He cries.
Starting point is 00:59:47 He is very smart. He does have – the problem is he just went down a bad Twitter obsessed – he is smart when it comes – I mean, he's like taught it. Well, did you see when he called that girl fat and then when people made fun of him, he ran off his Twitter? He said not beautiful, which is so funny. It's funny because it's like Selena Gomez in the audience. The other day went.
Starting point is 01:00:09 Wait, what happened? I was on stage and she was like, I was like, is anybody going through breakup? And she was like. Selena Gomez? Yes. I don't believe this. Selena Gomez was not. If she was.
Starting point is 01:00:20 If that was really Selena Gomez, it would have been like page six news. Don't say where it was. Dude, because. You just said where it was.. Don't say where it was. Dude, because. You just said where it was. I didn't say where it was. I said on stage. You mentioned. Did I?
Starting point is 01:00:30 Okay. Fuck. Fucking idiot. Anyway. See? Selena Gomez used the word reject. Moron. When she was talking about.
Starting point is 01:00:42 She said what? She was like, he married a reject. Right? Wait, Selena Gomez heckled you on stage? I can say this. I can say this. Huh? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Totally. when she was talking about she said what? she was like he married a reject right? wait so Selena Gomez heckled you on stage? I can say this huh? yeah yeah yeah totally
Starting point is 01:00:49 it was I'm saying it's not her dude you can say that but literally it was Selena Gomez and everybody was freaking out really?
Starting point is 01:00:57 and yeah totally I'm just jealous I wasn't there yeah you're such a baby she's so hot he married a reject? yeah yeah yeah talking about not about Justin Bieber no no let's go I wasn't there. Yeah, you're such a baby. She's so hot. Did he marry a reject? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Talking about?
Starting point is 01:01:05 Not about. Justin Bieber. No, no. Let's go! Woo! And apparently, I'm saying this because apparently she's like very, she like posted shit all the time and she's like open about it. But it was the same thing.
Starting point is 01:01:17 The word reject is so, it's like not beautiful. It's like such a mean but clean way of saying. It's like being like, he married an orphan. It's like crazy. Which is kind of a reject. But it's like so cutting but clean. Reject is a underused term. I ripped her apart for it.
Starting point is 01:01:36 You know what I use? Low-grade imbecile. I'm like, dude, you're stuck in the Disney Channel days. That's so funny. Reject is a word we used in the 90s. I love it. I'm an American reject. It's crazy. it, I'm like, dude, you're stuck in the Disney Channel days. That's so funny. Reject is a word we used in like the 90s. I love it. I'm an American reject. It's crazy.
Starting point is 01:01:49 Bring it back. I know. I think so. But that's how I felt about Jordan Peterson, where he was like, not beautiful. I was like, you could have said not sexy or unhealthy, overweight, not beautiful. Just the most like subjective term. Like you can look at this and be like, I find beauty in it. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:02:05 It's so funny. But then everyone was like, dude, you're an asshole. And he's like, I'm leaving Twitter. It's too much to handle. Twitter has broken his brain. I mean, Twitter has broken a lot of brains. Oh, it's broken mine, for sure. Mine's dead.
Starting point is 01:02:17 I'm actually hoping with Elon that maybe... You're not on it at all? Oh, she doesn't have a Twitter. That's so smart. Can you, from a broken brain, get it back if Twitter's destroyed you? I think you can if you get off Twitter. It just doesn't work right anymore. I need the dopamine hit of the likes and the retweets.
Starting point is 01:02:38 I guess it's social media in general, but Twitter is my social media of choice. My thing is just I actually don't really check likes and retweets anymore. I'm more like I wake up, I open my eyes, I grab my phone, and I'm just like, what's happening in the world? And I'm on Twitter. I actually don't know if that's the worst thing in the world. I'm always just like, what's happening in the world? You're reading the newspaper in the morning?
Starting point is 01:02:57 Yeah, but at the same time, it's like, what is the source that you're reading? Yeah, and also we got a little taste of it here. So when I make videos for Instagram every couple days, we send them to our social team. And they tell me what can go up and what can't go up with all these rules. And I was talking to those guys about it. So they go to all these conferences and they read all the rules and they actually follow it. And they're like, you really don't even understand how much you're being kind of puppeteered and controlled.
Starting point is 01:03:29 Even when you think like, I'm just on Instagram. It's like, they're feeding you exactly what it's like. Oh, dude. Not to be some like tinfoil. No, it's the truth. And everyone's just like, free speech. We should be able to say what we say. And then when they post it, they censor the cuss words
Starting point is 01:03:44 because they'll get community guidelines so there is no free space this is free space man this is it right it's also crazy when you go to the circles of stories i'm like how does it know everybody that i've had a crush on dated dated for a day and none of them thought about yeah like he's like eighth on the list i'm like why is he down there but this one dude who I've been thinking about, who I made out with once. How do you know? Bro, yo, I saw a friend I hadn't seen in forever. Not even on Instagram, not even in person.
Starting point is 01:04:17 Hadn't seen his ex in forever on Instagram or in person. He was on stage. We didn't even talk. He was on stage. Didn't say her name. Mentioned ex-girlfriend. an Instagrammer in person. He was on stage. We didn't even talk. He was on stage, didn't say her name, mentioned ex-girlfriend. I go on Instagram and she is the first thing
Starting point is 01:04:31 that popped up on my feed. And that information alone should be like, get her into the river. But instead I'm like, let me post and tag. I'm a slave to this piece of shit thing. I've chosen this over relationship.
Starting point is 01:04:50 There's a documentary on Netflix. I forget the name of it. It's a movie called Big Dad or whatever. The Dahmer tapes? Great. But someone poses a question. They're like, they're actually not listening to you. What?
Starting point is 01:05:03 And he's describing how they're not listening to you. And he's like, but I say that's scarier. He's like, they just know how to read your phone that well, like what you slowed down. Not even what you like. It's reading like what you slowed down on. And it's like, oh, he might like that. But how did that chick pop up on my thing then?
Starting point is 01:05:17 No, because I've literally said to a guy, I've been like, oh, I don't like DeWalt. I like Makita. And then it's immediately Makita. No, I think they are listening, but I think that they can go beyond that. Like, literally, it's like you scroll, scroll, scroll. Oh, I stopped for a second. Scroll, scroll, scroll.
Starting point is 01:05:29 They see that stop. And they're like, okay, he liked that too. Like, everything about your behavior. He was arguing there's no. I think they're also listening. He was arguing they're not. It's both. It's both.
Starting point is 01:05:40 But it's also like. Bro, my old roommate was making fun of my teeth, and then all these fucking dentist ads were popping up. If you don't think that Amazon, Alexa, people are just always talking and saying what they need and want and that's all being cataloged. I kind of like the ad thing. Yeah, because it gives you what you want. It knows exactly what I want.
Starting point is 01:05:56 There's definitely some benefits to Big Brother, for sure. I mean, one day we'll be living in a dystopian future. The problem is you buy them off Instagram and they're dog shit. Everything they send you is chintzy shit. Yeah, for sure. All right, this ad is brought to you by Freebird. Did you know, and this is a shocking revelation to me as well right now, did you know most bald people are shaving their head wrong?
Starting point is 01:06:18 They're using the same multi-blade razor that they also use on their face, but razors were designed to shave flat surfaces, not curved domes. Avoid painful nicks, cuts and irritation by getting a shaver actually designed for your head. That's why bald head shavers need the Flex Series Electric Rotary Shaver from
Starting point is 01:06:38 Freebird. With five blades that individually flex to the head's curvature, you'll get the closest shave of your life in minutes. I've actually seen this online, and it actually is very sick. Have you seen this? I have seen the Freebird.
Starting point is 01:06:51 If you are a bald person, you should have this, because it is actually really, really sick. Plus, when compared to traditional manual razors, the Flex Series shaves 50% more hair in a single stroke. For upcoming holidays, birthdays, or, you know, just because, get yourself the best shaver of your life. Freebird, previously Freedom Grooming,

Starting point is 01:10:31 latent mental illness and this brings it to the surface and they get in a drug-induced psychosis a hospital out west i believe san francisco or san diego i i may be wrong on that but they're having 36 episodes a day people coming in with psychosis. We didn't do psychosis. More people than are coming in on meth or fentanyl. It's crazy because it brings things to the surface. I had a buddy, dear friend, entire life. We just had a thing where he was in like

I did that on Monday night. If that's what happens, cool, great. But don't give me
Starting point is 01:11:47 this bullshit that it's like, not addictive, it's not harmful, it's medicine, it's DD. But everything's addictive too, though.
Starting point is 01:11:55 Like, people do it with coffee. Or you're addicted to coffee. I don't know. I can stop coffee. Mushrooms are good. I just like coffee. Which is what an addict says. Stop anytime I want, Azzy!
Starting point is 01:12:05 No, it's mine! You could never stop. Also, who the fuck am I? I smoke two packs of cigarettes a day. And we're both on antidepressants. You're right! What the fuck am I even talking about, man? You have so much drugs, dude.
Starting point is 01:12:22 I'm an ex-drug addict! I added psychosis to it for weed. Ah, fuck. All right, live your best life. Who gives a shit? I love it.
Starting point is 01:12:33 It is like, nowadays when people are like, well, you're addicted to coffee. I don't, yeah, I mean, you're right, I guess. I'm also addicted to sugar because I eat fast food and I'm addicted to water
Starting point is 01:12:42 because I drink it all the time. Addicted to oxygen. Everything's an addiction now. I'm addicted to food. Let because I drink it all the time. Everything's an addiction now. I'm addicted to food. Let's relax a little bit. Live your best life. Do it. Do it.
Starting point is 01:12:49 Who gives a shit? All right, fucking live your best life. That's the perfect girl. It's just that being around people who are even the tiniest bit high is such a bummer. And the only people they connect with is somebody who's also high.
Starting point is 01:13:00 And they're just the dumbest thoughts you've ever... But also, that's what happens on Twitter. Everybody gets fucking jacked up and high and they live in this weird fucking world and then they tweet out and then people are like oh yeah and they're high too and then that becomes real
Starting point is 01:13:13 I would love to know if I didn't do this job if I would be on social media because I really don't think I would be but that's probably I admire that so much when I talk to people and they're like I don't have social media I'm like god bless me both my parents are like barely know how to use the people and they're like, I don't have social media. I'm like, God bless you. I think it's the cool, both my parents are like barely know how to use the internet.
Starting point is 01:13:28 They're pretty young too. In another life, I'd be a firefighter without the internet. I went to the firefighter store yesterday. Just saying the N word to my boys at the bar. Oh, dude. Yeah, just ending it up. You know? Why not?
Starting point is 01:13:43 If you met a guy and you said, what's your Instagram? And he didn't have an Instagram, what would you think of that i would suck a dick on the spot yeah oh my god yeah or if you see one and it's just kind of shitty yeah there's four photos one with him's like sister's new baby or something yeah that's great oh i want to fuck you yeah it's the ironic ones that are curated well that i'm like you we need to stay away from me yeah dude it's a double a chick will be so hot and it's all these pictures of her in bikini and that but then it's like oh you're a nurse you're crazy everything is just you someone is just selfies yeah that's that's so weird like i mean i know you can make money now every one of my posts is about me
Starting point is 01:14:23 but like i'm trying to think of if, I guess the equivalent would be like, if in the 90s you met somebody and you went home and you went to their apartment and you opened it up and there was just pictures of themselves all over the wall, you'd be like, what the fuck is this? As comedians, my niece, I just saw her and she was looking through my, I was like, you can look through my photos. And she was like, why are they all, because it was just videos and clips of me and photos of people. And she was like, why is it all of you? And I was like you can look through my photos and she was like why are they all because it was just videos and clips of me and photos and she was like why is it all of you and i was like um yeah it is i think i would def i mean i know i would have social media because i had it before
Starting point is 01:14:55 i was a comic but it was like not to the level of a campfire yeah and it was once a month i would post something or like a picture of my friend looking dumb or something but isn't it weird when you see people who aren't comics now who have it and you're like it's so
Starting point is 01:15:09 and they post a lot I'm like who why are you even doing this that's so weird you're blasting one we have to because of our job I argue that's almost more fun
Starting point is 01:15:17 like I have like one of my best friends has like 50 followers and he has stories like he is Kim Kardashian really like him talking to the camera hilarious but like he is Kim Kardashian. Really? Like him talking to the camera. Hilarious. But he knows it's just going out to his 50 boys. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:15:29 So it's actually a big group text. Twitter's the worst. Instagram is one thing because I do think you do see some cool things, take some good pictures. That's something that everybody has always done is take pictures, right? But Twitter is like I need to get my thoughts off and we do it because
Starting point is 01:15:45 it's like we have an audience but the hubris of thinking people care you you think that your this opinion matters to these people i've really gotten all the storytelling like and where they say like you know uh they use names like we know who you know brian said this to me yeah yeah nobody knows who your fucking husband i've really been doing this thing where I check myself where if I'm like fired up and I'm about to tweet, I go, who, why? Why does my thing have to be said? You did that on stage. Oh, my God. When you did this whole meltdown about trans kids.
Starting point is 01:16:15 Oh, yeah. And he had a whole meltdown being hilarious. And then he gets to a point where you and I watched it come into his head where he was like, why am I? Why do I care? And you were like, I don't know why I care. Nobody asked anything. Maybe I'm a hypocrite, okay? It was so funny.
Starting point is 01:16:32 Existential crisis. You watched him be like, who am I? It was so good. It is. I do that all the time. I've started doing that. Because I have. We've talked about it recently.
Starting point is 01:16:42 My Twitter is just bad. Oh, it's so funny. Yeah. The other day he had like seven tweets with a total of like. No, I had, it was, I had, I sent 17 tweets in a day, had 42 retweets in total. Total. Shut up. So like, we're averaging like a little over two retweets per tweet.
Starting point is 01:16:57 He has like hundreds of thousands of followers. It's borderline, it's literally impossible. I see that and I'm like, he bought his followers. He's like, oh no, he sucks. I swear I've never paid a fucking cent for a follower. Never a cent. Years ago, Karen Feehan and Micah Fox had a podcast. And on the podcast, they took my tweets and called the suicide hotline and just read them my tweets.
Starting point is 01:17:19 It was incredible. Yeah. It was amazing. That's hilarious. That's really, really funny. We're on the other end. It's like, you need to check yourself in right now. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:17:30 They're like, listen, buddy, I don't usually say this, but end it. Just do it. Yeah, yeah. I just feel like with tweets, comics are like, there's some things that you can't make a joke out of, and it's a joke. I just feel like everything, if you were going to post it on Twitter, it is something you could say on stage. Oh, I think you can say, if you were going to post it on Twitter, it is something you could say on stage. Oh, I think you could say a lot more on stage
Starting point is 01:17:48 than you can on Twitter. I think when you put things in writing, I think you need to say it on Instagram story. You lose context. You use words and kind of look like a headline or just like your name and a statement. And then I put my bias on it when I read it and I'm like, you piece of shit. No, I was a joke.
Starting point is 01:18:04 That's not all the time I was saying it. Why did you choose to read it that and I'm like, you piece of shit. They're like, no, I was a joke. That's not at all the tone I was saying. Why did you choose to read it that way? Yeah. Literally, yesterday, God bless him, Big Steve at the Cellar died, had his security, and it's massively sad and tragic. He was such a big part of all our lives, and we were all, like, posting memoriams for him
Starting point is 01:18:25 and also like a GoFundMe link for his family and everything. And I made this post and then like this guy was like, well, according to Day of the Dead, he's still around for a couple of days. So lucky you. And I was like, who the fuck do you think you are? What, in what world do you think it'd be cool to make a fucking joke?
Starting point is 01:18:44 And he's like, no, like Dios de Muertos. I thought he was talking about a zombie movie. This guy's gonna be a zombie for three days. And I'm like, how dare you disrespect Big Steve? And he's like, no, man, it's a legitimate thing I believe in. And I'm like, oh, I'm the moron because I'm emotional right now.
Starting point is 01:19:01 Wait, the guy you were attacking on our podcast yesterday, you realized he was... What? The guy that you were talking about on the podcast yesterday. Who did I attack? You got into a fight with him and you blocked him. Oh, that was another guy. Oh, different guy. Yeah, I was in a mood yesterday, man.
Starting point is 01:19:13 All right, look, I was very upset. I'm better now, you know. It's very sad. I took some mushrooms. I'm all set. Yeah, right. Over my dead body. I'm going to slip you some.
Starting point is 01:19:23 Yeah. I've worked too damn hard on myself with sobriety and therapy to ruin it with some sort of outside thing. I'm going to turn the eyeballs out and go inward. There you go.

Are these all the notes about me? That's my book of secrets. This is one of those books where it's like, ah! There's horrors in there.
Starting point is 01:23:34 Like the Hocus Pocus book. Which, by the way, Hocus Pocus 2, right? I just watched it. I watched both, one and two. I've seen it a million times. My kids, who are six and four, and they just learned to sit still for a whole movie, and so this was the one.
Starting point is 01:23:52 Did your kids watch Toy Story? No, they have not watched Toy Story yet. Here, let me see your phone. Just stay out of the phone reel. Let me see your camera roll. There's a voice memo section. When they watch, I played, what's their names? Keegan and Shay.
Starting point is 01:24:11 Keegan and Shay. When they watch Toy Story 4, I played this character Forky. Okay. So you have to play this for them. All right, and this is amazing. Yes, please. They're at the age, which is great, because they don't know human beings behind that voice.
Starting point is 01:24:23 Right. It's really Forky. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Wait, so what's their names again behind that voice. Right. It's really Forky. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Wait. So what's her name again? Keegan and Shay.
Starting point is 01:24:27 Okay. Ready? Here we go. Hey, Keegan. Hey, Shay. This is Forky from Toy Story. How's it going? Hey, I have heard you are the most amazing kids and I just wanted to say hello.
Starting point is 01:24:37 All right. I hope you have a great week. Bye bye. Thank you, man. That was awesome. That was unbelievable. You're going to love that. It's your bad point
Starting point is 01:24:45 yeah I'm gonna save this right now my cheeks are from smiling already in this interview this is unbelievable wouldn't it be funny
Starting point is 01:24:52 if he was like you motherfuckers stop bothering your dad that monster owner bread is real don't look in the closet that was so good I'm gonna email okay we're water drinkers Don't look in the closet.
Starting point is 01:25:08 That was so good. I'm going to email. Okay, we're water drinkers around here. Oh, yeah. We got a lot. Actually, you want to know what I just did? I wonder if you find this disgusting. It's happening.
Starting point is 01:25:16 So I just sat down. We were just doing a different podcast, and I sat down, and there were three half-drank waters in front of me. I don't know who any of them belonged to, but I was like, might as well not waste them. So I just drank. Consolidated them all? No as well not waste them. So I just drank them all. I just drank them all. It's a good habit. Like in college, you don't leave any wounded soldiers behind. If there's a water bottle around, I'll just drink it.
Starting point is 01:25:33 Your hair's gotten long, man. It actually really has snuck up on me. The plan is to go through. I think I'm just going to. What I do is actually I was on a podcast, Chicks in the Office, which is a podcast A couple of girls have here Yeah
Starting point is 01:25:47 And before the show Ria was like So what's What's going on here Like your plan She's like You go from like Really clean cut
Starting point is 01:25:54 To really And I could tell her Was searching for a word That wasn't completely insulting Yeah She goes rugged And I was just like Yeah in the winter
Starting point is 01:26:04 I kind of let shit go And then in the summer I clean it up But I think I'm gonna go Buzz cut And then shave it And I was just like, yeah, in the winter I kind of let shit go and then in the summer I clean it up. But I think I'm going to go buzz cut. And I think I'm going to let it go and then buzz cut.
Starting point is 01:26:10 You're going to do a buzz cut. Yeah. I haven't done a buzz cut probably since like Little League. Yeah, see, when you get in your 50s,
Starting point is 01:26:15 you never do a buzz cut. Yeah. Yeah, I'm 52. You hold on to those follicles like they are just jewels. Absolutely. That is my real fear.
Starting point is 01:26:24 I used to shave my head when I was a kid, and I – not a kid, like 20s. I thought you started to shit your head. I used to shit my head. But I used to love that feeling. And nothing was on your ears, and you were never hot, and whatever. But then late 20s, early 30s started to look at my hairline a little bit and I was like, if I shave it,
Starting point is 01:26:49 I don't know if it's coming back. I don't want to risk it. There's that young when you're shaving, you have the assurance. Like, this is going to grow back. You don't have that assurance. I don't have that assurance. You look great.
Starting point is 01:26:58 Thank you. I would never have guessed 50, would you? Me? Yeah, I think you look 50. Hey, you're older than fuck. I don't know if that's 50. I just don't think 50's old at all. I think he's about to die soon. That's actually maple syrup.
Starting point is 01:27:13 This is whiskey though. There you go. That's marketing right there. That looks like whiskey. People are getting into like, for your pancakes, like, what? What?
Starting point is 01:27:25 You know, use it at breakfast, the whistle pig. What are you saying, 50 is the new 30? I just don't think 50 is old at all. Here's what I think. I think, and I don't know yet. I'm 38. I'm almost 38. All right?
Starting point is 01:27:40 Yeah, something like that. You're 38. How old are you? 34. Okay. And I think that my 30s were particularly shitty. I think 40s will probably be shitty too. And then I think 50s are cool.
Starting point is 01:27:53 I think like 20s are cool because it's fun. I think the middle is what sucks. When you have kids and you're raising them and you're maybe – you're not like – by the time you're 50, God willing, if you have like a good career, you're kind of at like the top almost or you've really established yourself. And then 30s and 40s is like, man, I should be partner and I'm not or whatever your various thing may be. Yeah, the thing – the challenge is as a 52-year-old man, the challenge is everything you just said is focused on career. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:28:20 And that's I think where it's kind of like bringing awareness to like how much power I'm giving to, oh, when I want to get to this place. Because I think if you give too much power, you're going to get there and be like, oh, what's next? I've noticed that a lot about myself and I think other people. Yeah, I didn't feel the way I thought I was going to feel. But it's the thing of being present is the key. Yeah. Did you feel that? Because I'm sure there's a point in time where you would be like man to have made it on a sitcom of and be a massive celebrity
Starting point is 01:28:50 to be the most famous man in the world but you would have been like oh my old self i could have told you that was all i ever did and i would be so satisfied but then you do it and you're like well i want to do a movie and now i want to do this and it's the thing of like in this business it's like you have value when this happens in life you have value
Starting point is 01:29:10 if you do this the fact is your value before success before the success was the same value you have now that's the fact
Starting point is 01:29:17 and that's what you have to remember I actually wrote a book years ago by the way guys where's your monocle I've got a memoir no it's a it's a book called Archibald's Next Big Thing it was a book years ago. By the way, guys. Where's your monocle? I've got a memoir. No, it's a book called Archibald's Next Big Thing.
Starting point is 01:29:28 It was a long time ago. But it was about this little chicken who got a card in the mail that said, your big thing is here. And he's like, where? And he goes on all these great adventures. But every time he's on an adventure, he's like, I've got to get to my next big thing. And this bee comes along.
Starting point is 01:29:41 And the bee's like, you've got to just be, man. You've got to just be. And then in the end, he realizes the card is right. Your big thing is here. Like, my big thing is talking to you guys right now. That's my big thing. Oh, heavens. Heavens.
Starting point is 01:29:50 You had me right up until the end. I was like, this is insightful, and I get this. And it's like, right now, my big thing is this stupid podcast. At the very best, it's your medium thing. It is. At the best. It is. You know what I think?
Starting point is 01:30:02 And I'm going to start a movement And it's gonna be Kind of embarrassing I think a lot of adults Should read more children's books Because That Even just that right there Was like
Starting point is 01:30:12 I was like Oh that makes more sense to me And then I was telling a story The other day About how my mom I have a three week old nephew And my mom Got him a book
Starting point is 01:30:21 Called Frankie and Gloob And I love the title She handed it to me And she's like, you should read this. I think you'd like it. Which I found incredibly insulting. She's like, you're Gloob. So Frankie
Starting point is 01:30:34 and Gloob is, Frankie is a young hippopotamus who has a sad monster. And that's Gloob. And the book's about depression and stuff like that. So he's not Gloob, but he has a Gloob. And it's about how really about depression and stuff like that but he has a glue and it's about how uh really i gotta be honest uh in the book the advice isn't the best it is name your sad monster so you have someone to fight an enemy which actually isn't the worst idea gloob is the
Starting point is 01:30:56 sad monster and uh and the number two piece of advice is to dance a lot and yeah and i i guess that would work yeah i don't know when i When I'm having gloob in the room, I don't really feel like dancing. But I will say this. What's interesting is I did a play two years ago, and it was practically a one-man play because in the end somebody comes in. Again.
Starting point is 01:31:17 Mostly BT dubs. But it was kind of scary. Every night I thought I was going to have a panic attack in front of the crowd. It was like a thousand. I was like, tonight's the night I'm going to have a panic attack. And I remember there was always this anxious voice in me that's like, get ready. You're going to go down.
Starting point is 01:31:31 You're going to forget every line. You're just going to lose your mind. And before I would always be like, get out. Done. But this time around, this therapist would say, hey, why don't we start. So I would start going. I would start talking to that voice. And I would say, hey, I appreciate you being here I know you're
Starting point is 01:31:47 trying to protect me I'm really I'm really thankful for it I'm gonna why don't you sit here I'm gonna go do the show and we'll come back and we'll be back yeah but it's the sense of the more the more you try to push it away the bigger it gets yeah the more you embrace like if somebody but it's like yeah this is a part of me I do it'm going to kind of befriend it. Like, oh, yeah, there's that crazy thought again. There's that, you know, it's like you're watching cars on a highway. There's that emotion.
Starting point is 01:32:12 There it is. But it's just a part of you. The telling you appreciate it, at first I was like, whoa, whoa, hang on. This is an enemy. We don't give quarters to the enemy. But that does make sense now. You've got a job to do too. Your job is to torment me relentlessly, push me to the brink.
Starting point is 01:32:28 But in life, how much more do you like, honestly, when I think of something I can't, anytime you give compassion to something, it does lessen the power of the resentment or whatever it is. It just lessens the power. That is fantastic advice. This is great. I'm having a great little therapy session here. While we're doing advice.
Starting point is 01:32:47 Seems like I'm totally drunk. On maple syrup. These are your wise, you know, 50s. Drunk words. Yeah. While we're doing wisdom, where do you get your underwear at? Okay. I love that question.
Starting point is 01:33:03 Okay, good. Because I'm in the market, and I just... My favorite thing is when you ask the question, he turned to me and goes... Is there something I don't know about? I didn't know. Did you post on social media about underwear or something? No.
Starting point is 01:33:17 No, no, no. Well, I did say it. I did that. What's going on? Are you guys fucking with me? I had a hard time finding underwear this morning without a hole in it. I just need to revamp my underwear.
Starting point is 01:33:28 I plead to Calvin Klein all the time. This kind of boxer briefs... First of all, you got a tan line. Did you go to Turkish? No, it just stays on me for a little while. Calvin Klein once made this boxer briefs
Starting point is 01:33:44 that wasn't like, everything now is like Under Armour, like moisture wicking performance gear. I'm like, I just want some cotton underwear, man. And they discontinued them and they changed them a little bit. And I plead with them all the time to just go back. I also have a problem where I am very big on the bottom. I'm very disproportionate.
Starting point is 01:34:03 Brother, let me tell you. Are you talking like a tire on the stomach? No, it's actually my ass. It's not even the bottom. I'm very disproportionate. Brother, let me tell you something. Are you talking like a tire on the stomach? Kind of. No, it's actually my ass. It's not even the hips. Okay, see, I'm like a split pancake. I got nothing. Me too.
Starting point is 01:34:13 I go back to legs, baby. I kind of got a split. I am pushing. I wear XL boxers, they're like still very uncomfortable and I'm like brother I can't wear how did you put that I got like a heavy
Starting point is 01:34:28 what did you say like I got a lot down heavy load yeah I'm like I thought you were also talking about like the front part I was like
Starting point is 01:34:35 yeah yeah yeah I was like easy man let's okay talk about like imagine if I just casually like I just got a hammer in there man
Starting point is 01:34:43 and it is just so disgusting you know how it goes but I just can't have double there, man. And it is just so disgusting. You know how it goes. But I just can't have double XL underwear was my point. So anyway, but where do you get yours? I used to get it at Uniqlo, and I really liked Uniqlo. Okay. And my thing is I'm not a fan of that kind of what you're talking about.
Starting point is 01:35:00 But what I don't like is putting on underwear and then it loses its grip. And then it just becomes like, almost like boxers, but they're just kind of like flappy. I used to wear boxers. I used to be staunchly like, boxer briefs are weird. They're all tight on you. And then I made the switch over. And then one time I had no other clean underwear. So I wore boxers, not boxer briefs.
Starting point is 01:35:22 I mean, it's like, it's like putting on tableclothcloth down it's like there's so much fabric under my pants like what is all of you want to do you kind of want to move I kind of um I wonder if we should go back to if I should go back to the whiteys I might just start wearing a thong which I don't even understand that concept Kevin's tired of the panty lines. It's like floss. I mean, it's like you're rubbing it. I don't get it at all. But, you know,
Starting point is 01:35:49 if you go from maybe it is a progression. So maybe we'll go to Tidy Whitey's next. I do think Tidy Whitey's It keeps it in. Again, as you get older, I think more acceptable.
Starting point is 01:36:02 You know? A Tidy Whitey? Yeah. Oh, yeah. I've seen Walter White when you're a little kid Walter White Walter White was out there
Starting point is 01:36:08 probably mid 50s you're probably right around time I can switch back I stay in my clothes until it's time to go to bed this guy will wear like this and I stay fully clothed in bed
Starting point is 01:36:16 I like a never news it's kind of a never ending debate with us where it's like Kevin gets home and just constantly puts on sweatpants
Starting point is 01:36:24 right away I go through the doorway. Shirt off, pants off, I'm in sweatpants within like legitimately 30 seconds. I will stay fully dressed because you don't know what's going to happen. What if someone calls you and is like, yo, you want to go out? I got to take you
Starting point is 01:36:38 to the game. Well, great. I have my clothes on already. Perfect. Alright, you save 10 minutes while you sit in, not even 10 minutes, 30 seconds. 30 seconds. while you sit in, not even 10 minutes, 30 seconds. 30 seconds. While you sit in uncomfortability and all that. But you've also got a six-year-old and a four-year-old. You've got to be comfortable.
Starting point is 01:36:52 So, you know, what's funny is I have passed that on to them as well. So, I'm divorced. So, when I have the kids, they are immediately like, I'm going to put on jammies. I'm like, it's Saturday at like 2 p.m. and I was going to take you mini golfing, but fuck it. We're going mini golfing in our pajamas. It's comfort. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:37:11 I mean, comfort over. It's also habitual. Habitual. Like if there's things that I've gotten used to, it's like, it doesn't even matter if I don't want to do anymore. It's just a part of my routine. Just put the changing into that or whatever. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:37:21 So wait, are you, will you be a sweatpants guy at home or would you wear like regular clothes? No, I'll be a sweatpants, will you be a sweatpants guy at home or will you wear like regular clothes? No, I'll be a sweatpants. I'll be a sweatpants. I just got to the place where I used to always sleep with a t-shirt on because I kind of like got,
Starting point is 01:37:33 I don't know, I was always cold. Yeah. And then I turned an age where I started getting like hot in bed and so now I- You sleep naked, okay. No.
Starting point is 01:37:42 My wife would be like, put that back on. Get that out of here. Shoot that back get that out of here shoot shoot get out of here I was sleeping out like a shirtless and I love it
Starting point is 01:37:51 I'm like why didn't I do this my whole life I kind of went the opposite way I always just slept in boxers and then
Starting point is 01:37:57 I actually we sell merch here and I made great merch by the way oh yeah that's right you said you loved it but one of the things I focused on we had a guy who did barstool outdoors he would hunt and mountain climb and i did barstool
Starting point is 01:38:09 indoors and i made a line of like basically loungewear pajamas and they and they're so thin that i almost i wear them and it's it's like i don't even notice them so all of a sudden i went from the opposite i started wearing like long sleeve and pants but But my new shit, did you see my tweet the other day about the man nightgown? Yo, I bought one of these for my buddy for Christmas like two years ago. Does he wear it? He wears it all the time. Like a onesie?
Starting point is 01:38:33 Yeah. Like a nightgown. Like a dress onesie. Oh, yeah. Dude. I am in like full Scrooge. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I almost need one of those hats and I'll carry it around.
Starting point is 01:38:44 Charlie's grandfather? Yeah, yeah. I don't know. What about sleeping? That's what I Yeah, yeah, yeah. I almost need one of those hats and I'll carry it around. Yeah. Charlie's grandfather. Yeah, yeah. I don't know. What about sleeping? That's what I don't know, though. But I would walk around that in a second. I think sleeping in it's almost like that on top of a cover or sheets. It's almost too much stuff.
Starting point is 01:38:57 Yeah, but the freedom of walking around in that. I would love to take the garbage out, too. I'm not going to go out in public in that, but I do want to get outside. But you'd start a movement where people would start to feel free. There you go. Next thing you know, man. I was going to say too, I'm not a slippery slope guy, but I think if you become a nightgown man, it's a slippery slope to sundress.
Starting point is 01:39:18 By the way, you'd look stunning. Imagine I'm just twirling. Kevin comes in, sundress pair ofverse what's up girls like all right kevin we gotta talk you gotta stop wearing dresses out i did once i wore the uh the on tiktok there was a pair of like stretchy leggings for girls that was it went viral of like these are the girls uh these are the pants that make your ass look great and as aforementioned i'm bigger on my lower half you're talking about a lot it sounds like you're kind of proud of that cake back there but i i put on like the girl like the magic tiktok uh yoga pants and i was popping that thing yeah yeah
Starting point is 01:39:59 i think i sent a picture of like just my butt like Nobody would know if it was a guy or a girl. Sent it around. People were like, oh, wow, look at that girl. Gotcha, bitch. It's just me. Who's the real loser here, though? What were those tights that that documentary was made of? The hosiery where it was like a – shoot, it was on Netflix. The whole documentary?
Starting point is 01:40:19 Yeah, it was like this movement where they had all those leggings that had pictures on them and all this stuff. But it was like a bad pyramid scheme. Oh, yeah. It was like an empire that came crashing down. All built on... All built on cake. While we're asking you our inner debates,
Starting point is 01:40:39 we have one more for you. Are you bar soap or are you liquid soap? Ooh, this is a big one right now. Let's break this down. I'm you bar soap or are you liquid soap? Ooh, this is a big one right now. Okay, let's break this down. Yeah, yeah. I'm full bar soap. Man! There we go, Tony! You'd be surprised. Actually, do we do
Starting point is 01:40:53 a poll? It's the least amount of effort. That's the thing. You always gotta go back to the pump if it's liquid. It is. But also people say... Oh, we're talking about the shower. Right. Okay. But if you're in the shower, you're always da da-da-da-da-da-da. Yeah. And then rubbing on your body.
Starting point is 01:41:08 Yes. But if you've got a piece of soap, you're just going all over the place. Keep it going. Keep it going. The only argument I will make is dropping the soap sometimes can be a pain in the ass. It can be a pain, but that's fine. And the container you put the soap in, it can slip off too much. So you've got to find something with a grip.
Starting point is 01:41:21 Yeah. That is very true. Yep. But the last longer gets you cleaner... Last longer gets you cleaner. Last longer gets you cleaner. People have... People were mentioning loofahs. First of all, on a body wash,
Starting point is 01:41:32 nowhere on the instructions does it say get a loofah. Yeah, they just want... It just says body wash. Yeah. So I never... Whenever I use body wash my whole life, I never used a loofah.
Starting point is 01:41:39 I don't understand why you would need a loofah. You don't need a loofah if you're a soap guy. Because the real argument that we were saying is a bar of soap gets you clean. It's, I don't know. Body wash is like
Starting point is 01:41:50 you're just rubbing lotion on your body. And the body wash people say, well, you got to get the loofah to like suds it up and scrub you. It's like, well, that's probably because
Starting point is 01:41:57 the product you're using doesn't really get you. It's like, yeah, if I took sandpaper and I just scrubbed it on me, then it would get the dirt off. But I just use a bar of soap. A dove bar of soap, strict dove guy, and it is so far superior to a body wash.
Starting point is 01:42:12 You have some dove right there, right? Yeah. Oh, it's in my bag. This all came up because I went shopping for a bar of soap yesterday. And that's how podcasts work. I like that cucumber smell. Some of them have that cucumber smell. Yeah, he's got the cucumber?
Starting point is 01:42:23 Where's my bag at? I'll take your word for it because that was a genuine reaction. I of them have that cucumber. Yeah, he's got the cucumber. Where's my bag at? I'll take the garbage can. Because that was a genuine reaction. I got to get the cucumber out. I got to get it out. There you go. Oh, yeah, I know the exact one. That color.
Starting point is 01:42:33 Wow, you got the Costco pack. And this, actually, this is, I've got the 12 pack before. I got double this. Dove really, man, you can smell it through here. It's great. And this is actually your parting gift. You get some swag And you get the Dove
Starting point is 01:42:46 Wait no Yeah yeah yeah I haven't had soap In three weeks I finally remembered To go to Duane Reade Do you know what I don't like Is this
Starting point is 01:42:53 And granted This sounds like This is such a first world Thing I'm saying But when they put Like a sandy texture In a soap And it's supposed
Starting point is 01:43:01 To exfoliate your skin I like I like a lot of foam And I like to Yeah Anything that feels Scratchy I just don't understand And it's supposed to exfoliate your skin. I like a lot of foam and I like to anything that feels scratchy I just don't understand. And it's not enough that it's actually exfoliating. You know what I mean? You're like, because I know exfoliating.
Starting point is 01:43:15 I get facial. The the borrow soap is funny too because I'd be willing to bet at some point – I think this happens when you first go to college. But I think every guy at some point when they are first on their own dorm, apartment, whatever,
Starting point is 01:43:36 and it's time to go buy it, you buy Irish Spring Sport. Oh, yeah. That's like the one. That smells on your body for like a week. It's like a shower. It's not even soap. It's like a bar of cologne. You walk in the bathroom and you're like, yeah, someone's like the one. That smells on your body for like a week. It's like a shower. It's not even soap. It's like a bar of cologne. You walk in the bathroom and you're like, yeah, someone's got Irish Sprite going on.
Starting point is 01:43:49 That was because it just suds up and like. I feel like a lot of guys in their high school, college phase, era, have almost a bit of an Irish fetish. Where like everyone's like, I'm Irish, I'm Irish, I'm Irish. And then you hear an Irish accent in the commercial and you're like, this is the soap of my people. How could I possibly use anything else? It definitely to me was like, this is not girly. This is Irish spring sport.
Starting point is 01:44:17 That guy's got a cable knit sweater on. And a skirt. I got your next merch. Here's your next merch Ready? Do the soap on a rope Uh huh And then come
Starting point is 01:44:28 Bring a Sell a hook with it So the hook that you put On your shower wall Just has the You don't have to You don't have to put it On the old platter
Starting point is 01:44:36 And it says bar Whatever Stool Soap Yeah And put it on a rope And you just grab it And put it back on the hook
Starting point is 01:44:43 I forgot about soap on a rope. Let's get a hook manufacturer on the line right now, today. Got a hook guy? Access. Don't have to worry
Starting point is 01:44:50 about it slipping off. I can't look at you say the word hook without just thinking. I'm a monster! You got a hook? Actually, let's cross market.
Starting point is 01:45:01 That'd be amazing. It's Buster's hook. And you just go, I'm a monster! I'm not much of a memorabilia guy at all, but if I ever got really rich, I would buy... I would buy Buster's hook and put it on the mantle.
Starting point is 01:45:22 What is that? In like a Beauty and the Beast container. It's got this big glass thing. Don't touch it! You can just see my face with the hook in every shower. It's like, hello! Give me your soap! Give me your soap!
Starting point is 01:45:40 God. Busted. I actually follow one of the Bluth quotes accounts kind of deal. And they very recently, in fact, I think it was last night, they retweeted a screenshot of... I'd be interested to know what you think of that. I'm going to pull it up right now. It was the Bluth family intervention.
Starting point is 01:46:01 And it actually had John Levenvinstein replied and said was this your favorite scene to shoot and uh he added you you didn't reply will arnett said it's truly the hardest i've ever laughed in my life david cross said that was insane i think i bruised my ribs from laughing so hard what's the date on it uh it's actually um what's the for the tweet it's actually but the no no it's old They retweeted old. It's from 2020. It's 4-5-2020. So is it they remark off of, are there remarks off of? This is the screenshot.
Starting point is 01:46:32 This is you talking to a 52-year-old man. So who's remarking? Who's the man behind this machine? How are they talking to this picture? This is another thing I'm like, so like Will did it 4, 5, 20. Does that mean he remarked on 4, 5, 20? Are you fucking with me right now?
Starting point is 01:46:54 Why do you keep saying remarks? Yeah. Did he talk back to this picture Through the phone Did he talk back To this picture On May 4th Or April 4th They happened to read So young people
Starting point is 01:47:11 Why did they do this Why did they put this out Dude you're pretty active On Twitter Why is this happening Why is this not You were really active I've gotten more active
Starting point is 01:47:22 On the Insta So somebody Just you know For whatever reason is a fan of your show Who's the last comment? David Cross right? I don't even want to know if I want to introduce this This is a screenshot from Twitter So we're not actually on Twitter right now
Starting point is 01:47:37 When you say screenshot It's taking someone's screen And shooting it on that machine. I love this. Yeah, I mean, I don't... So... I genuinely want to ask. So, like, if they...
Starting point is 01:47:58 Oh, wait, hold on. If the last comment was that date, it's just a screenshot of this conversation. Yes. What happened was the Bluth account I follow retweeted it last night just just by happenstance screenshot of the conversation they screenshot the retweet of the conversation yeah and i was like oh like tony hale's coming in tomorrow this is like a great this is a great question that's great
Starting point is 01:48:16 if it's i do remember that scene because we we just watched it before you came in and it was funny but like but not that fun right but then... No, no, but I would never have guessed that these guys would be like, that was the funniest thing ever. But at the very end, it does have a clip of you just banging on the piano and he's like dancing like that. So I was wondering if that,
Starting point is 01:48:35 like, did that go on for like 10 minutes and you cut it down and edited it, but like behind the scenes, was it a fiasco? I think because I just did Smartless podcast. Oh, yeah, yeah. And they mentioned this scene and I think because I just did Smartless podcast. And they mentioned this scene and I think it's because
Starting point is 01:48:47 David Cross started to go off the rails. He just completely lost it and Jason and Will are in the back laughing. But I was in such a nervous state back then. I was just like, keep going! Keep going! I can't mess up. I'll lose my job. Were you really nervous even in those moments?
Starting point is 01:49:03 The whole first two and a half seasons I was a mess was that just because it was like one of your first big gigs and you like it was
Starting point is 01:49:10 I was dealing with that kind of like just not knowing what to expect being on a show and stuff like that but I was just I'd never been on a lot
Starting point is 01:49:19 I had never had really I remember zero to a hundred on this one and I remember thinking do I need to take some of this food home because i don't know if i'm gonna have like if there's gonna be food
Starting point is 01:49:29 tomorrow like it was that sense of i just didn't understand set life and it was very serious about i would go home and practice buster in front of the mirror which is so funny because it's like it's your job you got to get seriously but obviously it's patently ridiculous ridiculous but it was fun i just i just like, just keep playing. What do you think is your favorite... By the way, how many writers in general... I mean, I'm sure there's individual episodes, but is there accredited four or five writers?
Starting point is 01:49:57 Is there a number of... How many people wrote about Arrested Abandonment? I would say in the room, there was probably about 10. 10. God, those have to be the 10 smartest, funniest fucking man so funny like every like next next next level crazy and so dense yeah like so many jokes a hundred times and you pick up something new that my favorite is the one of my favorites is the blue man group and he thought it was a group for depressed men yeah i was gonna say is that is that your favorite that's one of them i think lucille for me and Lucille is
Starting point is 01:50:25 very funny. And the best line was Jessica Walters saying, she says, buy a banana. How much can it be? $10? Or something like that. The C word is also unbelievable. I'll leave when I'm good and ready. Yeah. She does it to herself.
Starting point is 01:50:46 So good. Salah has Iraq too I mean there's so many and when we were being cancelled all the jokes about home builders organization show time when you guys would break the fourth wall and look at the camera and be like go watch
Starting point is 01:51:01 seriously tell your friends to watch the show Fox kept allowed all that look at the camera and be like, go watch. Yes, seriously, tell your friends to watch the show. Such a tragedy, man. Fox kept, I mean, allowed all that, which I give them a lot of props for. Well, because they were like, we're fucking cutting them anyway. Let these losers go down with the ship. That's like in a show when you see a kidnapped person being like, please, you don't have to do this. I'm going to kill you anyway.
Starting point is 01:51:20 Exactly. Do what you want. Whoever helps you pass the time it's so if there was ever an example of like I don't even know what kind of
Starting point is 01:51:32 lesson to learn but it's just like great it was greatness it was like truly greatness and that
Starting point is 01:51:39 isn't enough like fuck this world you know what I mean like you're gonna be the most brilliant the funniest the best looking the you know and there still might be some yeah i'm just sorry about tony hale exhibit a uh cakeless wonder i i genuinely think that like that arrested is one of the things that because i was when was it i was i was pretty young
Starting point is 01:52:02 yeah okay settled Early 2000s? Easy trick. It was like, yeah, it was 2003 to 2006. Yeah, so I think that was like, I was probably 13. And I remember my uncle sitting me down and being like, you got to watch this show. And I think that's what got me into, not even just television, but like comedy television. I'm also curious, like other people's, because I just miss, there so many jokes. I didn't get to like 20 years later Yeah, yeah, do you like?
Starting point is 01:52:27 watch episodes when you're on the show My daughter like you do your scene and that's it and then when the episode airs the series season airs Do you watch it? Yeah, I watch it then and I typically don't watch it again Which is crazy because there are so many jokes and there's's so many jokes. Because of that, I don't. This is a story I told on that podcast, but it's like that joke about when I lose my hand to the seal and the seal eats off my arm. And the doctor says he's going to be okay. I thought he said he's going to be okay.
Starting point is 01:52:56 Right. And I was like, ha, ha, ha, funny. But the joke is he's going to be all right. All right. He's got the right hand. Yeah. I didn't get that until 15, like 15 years later. Really? Really 15 years really doing a podcast doctor is one of the best bit you son of a bitch she's always like all right his left hand was one of the four founders
Starting point is 01:53:18 of UCB Oh doctor him so like everybody sir Matt walsh stars it's like every bit character even that was brilliant the um what you know what i like doing is i when i see it i this happens the most to me with seinfeld but with the rest it happens a lot too where i see your bit in a newer sitcom where it's like oh shit and it's not it's not necessarily stolen but it's kind of like a and this one actually the one that sticks out the most to me is very similar. I wouldn't say it's stolen, but maybe it is. Who knows? Is when
Starting point is 01:53:49 Tobias, he's talking about how he hasn't slept with... What's Porsche's name? Lindsay. Hasn't slept with Lindsay in so long and Jason Bateman's like, why? He's like, well, I don't want to say 9-11, but it didn't help.
Starting point is 01:54:07 He's like, well, 9 don't want to say 9-11, but it didn't help. He's like, well, 9-11 certainly didn't help. By the way, I have never heard that. I have never heard that. That missed me completely. That is me completely. But then...
Starting point is 01:54:27 That is so hard. And then many, many years later, it comes up in the office where, like, Ryan is talking about why he cheated on Kelly or whatever. And he, like, lists... He has two things. And then he ends it with, I don't think I ever really processed 9-11.
Starting point is 01:54:43 And I was like, oh, that's David Cross. How about this? I got a business idea. How about... It can't be better than soap on a rope. We saw it with The Office. We see the Always Sunny guys doing it.
Starting point is 01:54:58 We watch. We do a re-watch. We do a podcast about Arrested Development. Just so I can learn my own show. We'll teach podcast about Arrested Development. Just so I can learn my own show. We'll teach you about it. Yeah. Watching you react to things that you didn't even realize. As a fan, we'd be like, oh my god, Tony just got the joke ten years later.
Starting point is 01:55:15 It's amazing. Wait until we tell you about Veep. My fear is I'd be watching and I'd look at you and I'd go, I don't remember that. Yeah. I don't even remember shooting that. That's what's crazy. I'm just saying. You never hit podcasts.
Starting point is 01:55:29 We say that all the time. And obviously, we were talking about complete different levels of entertainment. But we always say all the time, we walk out of the podcast, like, what the hell are we saying there? I don't even know. I don't have a clue what just happened. Oh, I forget the podcast immediately after it. Or even fans will.
Starting point is 01:55:41 You won't forget this one. No, this one. No, this one's great. Burned in my brain, man. Great. But when fans, you'll probably get this all the time, where it's like, yours are probably, I guess, maybe a little more memorable.
Starting point is 01:55:52 Fans will say to me, like, do you remember that tweet that one time? And I'm like, I probably sent literally 100,000 tweets in my life. I know I did not. But I guess maybe. Do you have, I think this is why I'm not on the Twitter much. But I think I have a like brain. I think I have like an anxiety of not necessarily what to put out.
Starting point is 01:56:14 But like, I think about it too much. Yeah. By the time I thought I'm like, I'm not done with it. Yeah, that's probably smart. I get myself. You think about things before you say them to the world yeah i i grip it and rip it man you know i just let it fly and then i'm like yeah but at least there's a happy medium of like not i overthink it and then just end up doing nothing i remember i got in trouble once uh for um slander or libel whichever one's written
Starting point is 01:56:42 slander i think and um And I wrote a headline. This is a long time ago. Yeah, this is like forever ago. There was this guy in Jersey City. The story was that he won the lottery, but he lost the ticket and was just asking New Jersey to give him the money anyway. And this guy just had the creepiest look in the whole world and instead of saying and this is all rude i shouldn't have said any of this but i said he looks instead of
Starting point is 01:57:10 saying he looked like a pedophile i just said oh it's the word pedophile and uh and the reason why it was just funny though thinking about not thinking about things somebody in the comments said like you're gonna get sued for this and I replied to that and I said, shut up, you pussy. And then we got sued hardcore for it. But like I, as far as thinking about things, like this is how, and that was, you know, 12, 15 years ago. So now, you know, before I send anything. Yeah, of course.
Starting point is 01:57:38 And then, you know what? It becomes not funny once you start thinking or whatever, whatever your point was. It's like, well, if I'm thinking this much about it, it clearly isn't really. And the power of words. I mean, there's like, well, if I'm thinking this much about it, it clearly isn't really. And the power of words. I mean, there's like, I have to remember
Starting point is 01:57:48 there's a tremendous power in words, you know? And it goes both ways. Like our society doesn't realize putting stuff out there, but they also don't realize like in Hollywood,
Starting point is 01:57:59 people will say a lot of stuff and it doesn't mean anything. Yeah. So it's almost like the power of that, what you did and realizing that lesson. And then like just words meaning nothing. Just gobbledygook.
Starting point is 01:58:15 Just to make somebody feel good, which is like what you should not do to them. We've definitely gotten more of that as we've gotten more corporate around here where it's like, all right, you walk out of a meeting, you're like, that sounded great. And you're like, none of that's going to happen. Nothing. I can't tell you. I was like, not only will that plan not happen, those people won't be here in six months. This is a, you know, get out of here. But also, yeah, just the nonsense talk.
Starting point is 01:58:34 It's a Twitter thread. My thoughts, like one of 23 tweets. We're not reading any of this. We're going to stop. Guys, I'm joining the club. Yeah. I'm going through it. We put down waters.
Starting point is 01:58:48 It gets hot in here. It gets hot in here. We get like a couple pallets delivered at the beginning of the month, and we've grown in size, and I think we probably have- By the way, how many people do you think work here? Total? Yeah. In this building?
Starting point is 01:59:00 300? 400. We crossed the 400 threshold. Wait, hold on. Is this something you guys started? We were- Or a part of the- 400 threshold. Wait, hold on. Is this something you guys started? We were part of the early on. Dave Pioi is like the founder of it. He was in Boston.
Starting point is 01:59:11 And then the original idea was to expand into other cities. Everyone worked from home, kind of like a little satellite city situation. And the first expansion was to New York, and that's what I started. And he was like my first hire, if you will. And what year was this? 2009 I bet it's so inspiring to watch how it's grown for you guys it is it can be frustrating
Starting point is 01:59:32 too because it can also be like to be like perfectly honest it loses it's essence where you're kind of like ah man but like anything you romanticize I'm sure you romanticize wondering if you should take food home from the lot and in reality your life is much better now yeah but there's like there was something fun about that struggle and uh you know also the power of the simple yeah you know things our world looks
Starting point is 01:59:54 at where you've gotten and where people get is like oh my god that's the ultimate but there's a tremendous it's great but like there's a lot of power in the simple and definitely and like and and not even it's the um like it was like lot of power in the simple and like and not even it's the like it was like five guys in the beginning five people
Starting point is 02:00:09 made this whole thing and now there's 400 and God bless them there's a lot of great people and we couldn't make all this money if we didn't have all this but you know
Starting point is 02:00:17 that also comes with like meetings and and training and all these corporate things and I'm like
Starting point is 02:00:24 I start we started this to get away from that shit. Was it in your house? Did you do it in your house? Well, when I started out, I was an accountant, and I was at my desk at work doing blogging and accounting. But then when I went full-time on Barstool, I was working. I've worked out of my parents' place, my place. I'm sharing my daughter's nursery at one point
Starting point is 02:00:46 was also my like desk so we've done it from you know everywhere but then yeah we all came under one roof when things like really kind of blew up so it was cool how's fatherhood by the way right now right now is probably
Starting point is 02:01:01 my favorite because so like I think I actually haven't talked about this on the podcast yet. I think I had the greatest day, fatherhood day, maybe of all time. Certainly for myself. But in the morning, my son, we went to T-ball. And he hit two home runs, which were just balls that go in the air. They don't hit the ground. They just go up in the air.
Starting point is 02:01:21 And he's pretty good. So he's hitting it harder than the other kids. So he's very proud of himself he got two home runs and then we came home and uh we played do you you know zelda the video game at all i know that i've heard of it yeah so it's a very adult game and he's five and somehow he picks up those sticks and he goes and he beat so he wouldn't be asking questions about screenshots. Why do they remark on this? I heard remark more times than that. What is Zelda remarking?
Starting point is 02:01:53 He beat Zelda. It was actually very funny. He was about to lose and he pressed pause and he started to cry. He was like... It's just that my eyes hurt. My eyes just hurt. That's all. He wins that. So it was home runs.
Starting point is 02:02:06 He beats Zelda. We went mini golfing. And then I took my daughter horseback riding. And then we watched Hocus Pocus 2 at the end of the night. We had watched Hocus Pocus 1 the night before. So I had the greatest like 24 hours ever. Because it's at the point where they can like have their own opinions and do their own things. And they're, and they're not totally
Starting point is 02:02:25 totally useless but just so you know that's going to be solidified in their heart in their soul and then I think I probably have a couple more years before they're like shut up dad go fuck yourself I'm going to get rid of my friends mine's almost 17
Starting point is 02:02:40 oh really so yeah you are old there's more and more like proof it's coming out like oh yeah i do see that gray on the scene is that um college yet or is that junior year it's junior year so we're thinking about college driving now she just started in l.a But now you can track them on an app. But now you can follow them. I can know how fast she's going. Her phone or on the car?
Starting point is 02:03:11 You have a Tesla that If anybody knows how to track on the car, I'll take it. But it's the phone. So I know how fast she's going on this app. Wow. Really? But I will say, as much as people say, oh, LA, the highways, there's so much traffic. You're not going more than two miles an hour. You're not going fast.
Starting point is 02:03:27 So was that something that you did and she was like, fuck you, dad? Or was she like, you know, does she even know what's happening? She won't use that language around me. So good. You're reading so well. I still don't curse around my parents. I'm in that camp. I think it's like. Either day, my dad. Because I know, I'm sure she camp. I think it's like...
Starting point is 02:03:45 Either day my dad... Because I know... I'm sure she does with her... I mean, obviously, she does with her friends. I did it with my friends. But it's like... I don't...
Starting point is 02:03:52 It doesn't need to be in the house. My dad sent a group text, a group remark to the family because he doesn't know what he's doing with the phones. And he meant to just send it to my mom. Cut to him and I having coffee
Starting point is 02:04:04 like two hours from now. What color is your machine? Remark! Talk box! No, you remark! You remark, Tony! Okay, I'll remark.
Starting point is 02:04:25 Anyway, he cursed and he apologized to the whole family. Tony? Okay, I'll remark. Oh, my God. But anyway, he cursed and he apologized to the whole family. He was like, I'm so sorry for that. He went to my sister and he was really like, oh, my God, I'm so sorry. I will say, like, doing this kid show, which I love, it's a very different change from Veep. I bet. Because when you make a mistake, things can fly, and then you forget, like, oh, there's a 12-year-old.
Starting point is 02:04:45 And I got to be careful. Yeah, so this is what? The Mysterious Benedict Society. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, tell me about this. So it's based on this children's book by Trenton Stewart, which your kids probably in a few years they'll get into. And what I really like about this show a lot is these kids i mean i like the superpower show i like the marvels but these
Starting point is 02:05:09 kids superpowers are their intellect their creativity and their empathy cool and we solve all these puzzles and i play twins i play kind of a good brother and like a bad brother and paid twice hear that um and the first season when there was this crazy adventure where the bad twin was doing this stuff, but this season, the bad twin reinvented himself as a self-help guru selling happiness and has tricked the whole world. That's a scam.
Starting point is 02:05:36 That's a scam. That's a scam. That's a scam. That's a scam. That's a scam. That's a scam. That is. And it's a really, really, really great message.
Starting point is 02:05:41 To me, what I see is this difference between artificial happiness and authentic happiness. Sure. Sure. That's just, especially online. There's just this like quick,
Starting point is 02:05:49 happy fix and happiness, man goes through all the emotions. It walks through stuff that you fail through it and all that kind of stuff. But he's selling like perfection and all that kind of stuff. This is almost exactly what we started the episode talking about with like the children's books. Like that's a great message that i probably need to learn yeah i probably need to get that like that dopamine hit you get from a retweet doesn't mean anything that's superficial happiness yes
Starting point is 02:06:13 just watching like a viral tiktok like this morning i wish i could remember where it was because it was saying that it was like you need to be able to distinguish you're talking about the board game tiktok right so i'm metronome game tick tock right i'll be looking for those three x's or the three o's i think it was very the message at the end was very zen nirvana buddhist hindu whatever it was like happiness is the lack the the absence of chasing the happiness is when you're actually happy you know what mean? Because it was very much everything you were saying, too, about what's next. You get that dopamine. He said dopamine is just a chemical that wants more dopamine.
Starting point is 02:06:55 It's a drug. Dopamine is never going to say, okay, you made it to a rest of development. We're good. Dopamine just wants more and more and more. And the happiness is when you let go of that. Get rid of dopamine. Which is hard. It's a lifelong journey.
Starting point is 02:07:07 I mean, it is like a drug. It is like an addiction. It is. Yeah. That is depressing. But also we've been trained to think that it's like you're lazy if you're content. If you're like, I'm really happy with my life right now. I remember I read an article by a kid.
Starting point is 02:07:21 It wasn't actually an article. It was a tweet thread by Jay Caspian an article it's a tweet thread by uh jay caspian king who's a new york times writer and um he was kind of basically saying like i wish someone had taught me when i was younger that i didn't have to chase my dreams where he's like he's like because i wanted to be a new york times writer and i made it and this is great but i really would be happier if i was just home surfing and like and that's okay working in the surf shop and like that's not something that you have to be embarrassed about. You stayed in your hometown and worked at a surf shop.
Starting point is 02:07:50 You can be like, yeah, this is what makes me happy, so why can't I do this? It's the same thing when you're on your deathbed, because we're all going to die. This is all fleeting. You sooner than us, because you're on your deathbed. Exactly. We'll see. But it thinks when you get in your deathbed, what are you going to value? And it's these days you had with your kids.
Starting point is 02:08:09 It's all these memories you probably have with friends. It's like, that's the value. That was depressing right there. You know, your kids, and I assume you have friends or something. Do you have kids? No, dude. Well, I thought so. No, you knew.
Starting point is 02:08:20 No, you hadn't mentioned them. You knew. And I would have got a freaking quirkyky voiceover if you had kids. What if I did it for him? You'd be like, my kids are fine. They actually saw it. They hated Forky. That's funny.
Starting point is 02:08:38 Yeah, I'll tell you what that is going to do, though. You know your kids didn't like you shopping for underwear. Same thing, right? Oh, yeah. When you took a horseback riding into soap shopping. You are cutting me down pretty accurately right here. No. You are so full of life, man.
Starting point is 02:08:56 It's so obvious. I'll tell you what. That recording will open the door. Knowing my kids, they're going to be like, well, where's Buzz Lightyear's voice? The dopamine is going to just want more and more and more wow this is a very nice thing but that was very cool i really do appreciate it so uh the mysterious benedict society is on disney plus uh it's out season two is out now so you can go binge season one and catch up on i'm gonna i'm gonna watch i don't usually watch children's shows, believe it or not. But I am going to watch it and I'm going to learn
Starting point is 02:09:26 some good lessons from this. Disney Plus is great. And also, what's the name of the book? I'll just tell you. Archibald's Next Big Thing. It was a long, long time ago, but it's a sweet little book.
Starting point is 02:09:35 I think I'd like to read that as well. And before we let you go, we were doing favorite lines. Favorite line from Veep. It doesn't have to be yours. Well, I would say what I was called What I
Starting point is 02:09:46 It was one of my favorite Was a bitchy mime The insults in VIF are I was gonna say If you were I mean I'm sure There's some brilliant line That I
Starting point is 02:09:56 You know I'm over Like missing And it's probably better than this But the Jonah Ryan insult Oh my god The cloud whisperer I think it is
Starting point is 02:10:02 The sky raper The sky raper But also How do you not take that personally It's also just him as a person He would say but the Jonah Ryan insults. Oh, my God. The Cloud Whisperer, I think it is. The Sky Raper. The Sky Raper. But also, how do you not take that personally? It's also just him as a person. He would say, sometimes, because one of them was like, you got an odd shape. And then he was also called Frankenstein, and Frankenstein was made entirely of dead dicks.
Starting point is 02:10:25 My favorite one of them is, and I forget his uncle's name, but when he is finally running for congressman, and I think it's the opening of an episode, or at least from a cold cut, and it's just him being like, dude, being a congressman is sick, man. I'm eating so much pussy, I'm shitting clits, son. And then his uncle grabs him and he goes, this is an elementary school, you animal.
Starting point is 02:10:50 And it zooms out and he's in like a fifth grade classroom. And the way you did his uncle is perfect. He had that like, ah! Elementary school, you animal. That was Peter. Oh, man, he's been around. I forgot his name. Oh, he was fantastic.
Starting point is 02:11:07 He was. Oh, he's so good. Oh, last thing. Was it Will Arnett talking about David Cross? Oh, yeah. So I actually just read Bob Odenkirk's memoir, Comedy, Comedy, Comedy, Drama. Very, very good. But in it, he mentions at one point that him and David Cross are writing partners for decades now.
Starting point is 02:11:24 And how David Cross was always partners for decades now and how David Cross was always hassling him to do drugs with him and he said he finally conceded he conceded one time in Amsterdam they did they ate mushrooms? No weed brownies I think
Starting point is 02:11:40 and I was just wondering if David Cross was such an evil influence on yourself. I don't know. Again, my age, I'm fascinated by these. Mushrooms, is it like a dry? I can answer for you. Yeah, they're pretty dry.
Starting point is 02:11:54 Yeah. They're pretty dry. They're a little freeze-dried. But you got it. Anyways, we can get the whole conversation. That's I do not understand. But you said, do I smoke weed? I said, was David Cross such an influence on yourself?
Starting point is 02:12:06 As a person? Yeah. Oh, you mean, oh Cross was he such an influence on yourself as a person as a you know as such an important drug yeah yeah was he like come on come on
Starting point is 02:12:10 let's go he could have been smoking weed the entire I would have no clue I'm always that guy that catches on later like whoa
Starting point is 02:12:17 really they were doing like weed doing the weed there was this there was this that explains those remarks I told this story
Starting point is 02:12:25 on some talk show but I went to this great restaurant in Raleigh called Union Special and they gave me a t-shirt that said waking and baking and I thought
Starting point is 02:12:35 in my literally I thought in my head I was like I like bread I like baking no way so I wore that
Starting point is 02:12:42 not that old dude I wore that t-shirt I'm not kidding for like two years I wore it to drop my that old, dude. I wore that t-shirt, I'm not kidding, for like two years. I wore it to drop my daughter off to school. Yes. I wore it to church. Get out of town.
Starting point is 02:12:52 Nobody, nobody, I guess, and then finally I was, my buddy Michael comes up to me and he goes, and he, I work, I do this orange theory class
Starting point is 02:13:00 and he's an instructor and he goes, hey Tony, last night you did a little, and I was like, what? What are you talking about? I have no idea what he was talking about? I have no idea
Starting point is 02:13:05 what he was talking about. I had no idea it was about the weed. Come on. That's unbelievable. It's not sad. It's really sad. It's endearing,
Starting point is 02:13:12 I think. In this way. It cut to me getting jokes like 20 years off my own shows. All right, brother. Thank you so much for the time. Thank you so much, Tony. It's an absolute blast as always.
