Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey, KFC Radio listeners, you can find every episode of KFC Radio on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or YouTube. Prime members can listen ad-free on Amazon Music. We should do what we should do. Let's do it. Let's do it. This is live. No, hold on. This is live. Let's do this. Let's do this. Who's our group? Who's our group? I'll pay for it. Who's our group? It's another edition of KFC Radio on the Barstool Sports Network.
Starting point is 00:00:43 I am back home. Johnny Feist is still on the road, so he's on Zoom. And today, this is a little bit different. This is the Best of Nashville episode, meaning everything that went on this week, this past week, from the live radio to the interviews we did off air, off of YouTube, I have zero problem saying that it was the biggest and most important week in the history of kfc radio content and i don't even think there's a particularly close second i i would wholeheartedly agree with that yeah i don't i mean i guess number two you could do like super bowl weeks and stuff but even those we didn't really do much that wasn't like and those are like those are barstool you know yeah we were even at a more subsect of bar so those are more cck and i was kind of live radio and yeah this was the most important week and um because it was first of all
Starting point is 00:01:41 it was a it was a bear it was a beast it. It was a monster. And I know we always throw out this disclaimer. I know we're not construction workers. I know we're not on the front lines. I know it's not actually hard, but it's hard. But no, this one was like anybody who does any sort of content, if you interview, you talk, you host, podcasting, radioing radio whatever the amount that we did was borderline like diminishing returns i was like we need to stop this is going to start to be shitty quality everyone who came and did one show was like so you guys are done for the day now and we're like no we do five more of these yeah you're one of you're one of four every day we did it's
Starting point is 00:02:20 like everyone was like jesus christ i'm exhausted. Yeah, it is. Every day went from, I don't know, up at – what happened? Every day went from like, I don't know. First of all, Airbnb – I'll keep saying it every time I stay in Airbnb. Fuck Airbnbs. John has a crusade against car ride apps and and home rental apps which are arguably the two biggest apps of the last decade and john's like fuck them all i agree wholeheartedly and you want to know why because i did like it at one point kevin and not to sound like too much of a communist here but capitalism ruins everything okay and what happened was they these these things
Starting point is 00:03:02 used to be run by people who were like come stay in our home we'd love to have you yeah and now they're like we're building a shitty building in six weeks we're gonna rent it out for a thousand bucks a month yeah a thousand bucks a week and and and it's like okay well this house is fall literally falling apart right now like i'm in this home it went from an episode of the holiday like we'll just house swap for a week and live in your little beautiful chateau to like section eight housing where it's like cram them in there make money it's literally like i'm using literally accurately here it was literally falling apart on us while we're in there we're the first people to
Starting point is 00:03:35 ever stay chairs were breaking only sat in them fucking uh banisters were falling fucking everything we said it the first night every Every fucking, every sound, every sneeze you could hear, it echoed throughout the home. But I say all this to say that they didn't have fucking blinds in my bedroom. So I was up every day at 6 a.m. Because the second the sun came up, I came up. And then, so every day, like, started at 6. And then we were doing content until, like, 10 p.m.
Starting point is 00:04:02 Which, again, like, don't fucking cry for me. But we were, it was a big week. It was grinding. I said it was like the model home in arrested development. Right. It looked nice. It looked all modern, but everything was hollow. Everything was made of like balsa wood. You could hear absolutely everything. You could hear sex.
Starting point is 00:04:20 You could hear sneezes. You could hear it all. It was like a shitty dorm. But I, I, I, you know, in classic KFC radio, we're complaining about it and leading off with a negative. I do think it was the biggest week ever we've had for content because everybody was at the festival. Right. And we either professionally or like socially hung out with every major person in the industry. And I know I've said it before and I did mean it then. I really do believe that we are the best podcast for comedy content other than the actual comics themselves,
Starting point is 00:04:58 which are always going to be the best because you're getting it straight from the horse's mouth. As far as other people who are not in the comedy world, giving you an interview and giving you a look into it, I think we're the best podcast in the world to do it. And the fact that we like, we had a bunch of interviews lined up. And then once we got down there, everyone else who saw that we were in town, we're like, oh, can I come to the show too?
Starting point is 00:05:19 We had people jumping on. We had surprise guests and all of them were down with us to the point that i was like man like this is this is real like this is fucking real it's like we we are uh are the premier one out there and there were there were times where it was kind of like i mean bert bert said it i forget if we were recording or what but bert was like no yeah that yeah we'll get there because that was that was was off the mic. I want to tell that in a second. Cause that was the moment.
Starting point is 00:05:47 That was a fucking moment. I literally almost cried. Yeah. That was, that was like some serious shit. Because you know, we, we all, everybody here. And I think a lot of people on the internet doing this shit kind of suffer from imposter syndrome where, you know, I've always said like, I don't think we're really talented. We just happen to like imposter syndrome, the know i've always said like i don't think we're really talented we just happen to like imposter syndrome the peanut allergy of mental illness
Starting point is 00:06:08 that is a great tagline that is awesome that is so true everyone's got it didn't exist five years ago we just kind of made it up and now it is real we'll do fucking die from eating peanuts for real um but i mean we set up shop and we live streamed at least like an hour and a half two hours every day on top of our regular podcast on top of going on other people's shows uh it was it was uh like just an undeniable amount of content so we will go we're gonna do the best of and we're gonna play clips from either uh the radio kfc radio radio last week we also did our interview with nate bargazzi that never aired yet so we have that is all fresh which he just continues to be the funniest fucking guy in the world i don't know i i bring up 9-11 too many times too many times
Starting point is 00:07:01 he bring up 9-11 so much that nate like, boy, this is a 9-11 episode. He's a lot of 9-11 today. I didn't even plan that. It's just, but yeah, you're right. I have mentioned 9-11 too many times. Like for a guy who looks like me to go around mentioning 9-11 that much. Too many times. What's that all about?
Starting point is 00:07:20 What's the fetish? You can make the argument I have a 9-11 fetish. Fetish? You've got a kink. At least a kink. a 9-11 fetish fetish you've got a kink at least a kink a 9-11 kink yeah yeah two main
Starting point is 00:07:30 social events of this trip so we'll we'll play you one of the clips for the
Starting point is 00:07:40 Josh Adam Meyer Goddamn Comedy Jam Com Jam Band I never know can never remember that name but that one where we went out and we were hanging with Big J and Dan Soder Josh Adam Meyer, Goddamn Comedy Jam, Com Jam Band. I can never remember that name. We went out and we were hanging with Big J and Dan Soller and Shane Gillis.
Starting point is 00:07:51 Bob was there. Bob. If you call Kid Rock Kid Rock, you're a fucking loser. Yeah. They kick you right out of Nashville. The sheriff shows up and drives you to city limits like Rambo. He's like, get the fuck out of here. Bob.
Starting point is 00:08:07 But the big social event of the week for us was the Thursday night after party. Because, you know, we got some miles on us now. So partying the first five nights in a row in Nashville was not really on the table. We kind of picked and chose
Starting point is 00:08:23 our spots. and we said thursday night after the show when we're done we're gonna go hard now lucky for us we were at zany's on thursday night which was an awesome club uh every single live show we do since we're still new to it we always say that was our best show that was our best show but i think as far as how loud the crowd was and how much they were laughing and into it zany's was was right up there with the wilbur for our best show ever it was i liked like i kind of got it for the first time where like comics was like oh it's a great room great room and i don't really say that great room is like when you are in you know you're you're in the in the club now like yeah yeah
Starting point is 00:09:00 that's a great room yeah yeah i was like oh yeah like, oh, yeah. I was like, it doesn't matter. You know, they're like, oh, you're going to crush. It's a great room. I'm like, you can put the best comic in a shitty room. It's going to be funny. A good comic in a great room, they're going to be bad. But there is something to the acoustics and the lighting and the laughter. I don't know. It does matter.
Starting point is 00:09:19 Yeah. No, it's a great room. It's a great room. We got people like stuffing fucking pretzel bites in their mouth and we had surprised guests and we had hecklers we had the whole nine we really ran the gamut but afterwards lucky for us we were performing at zany's whereas bert because he sells out fucking theaters and stadiums now uh was performing i think at the Opry or the Ryman House, one or the other. And his after party was at Zane's. So Bert came through.
Starting point is 00:09:51 He did KFC Radio Radio, where we hatched the greatest plan of all time. We'll talk about that in a minute. And then as he lapped up, he said, you know, what are you guys doing Thursday night? I'm going to have my after party at Zane's. You should come through. And we were like, perfect. We're performing at Zane with Thursday night? I'm going to have my after party at Zaney's. You should come through. And we were like, perfect. We're performing at Zaney's that night. So we'll already be there.
Starting point is 00:10:10 And it ended up being what I hope. I hope we look back and I think we will. There's obviously no way to tell until it happens, but I think we will look back on that night with Bert as the most important night in KFC radio history. That's a big, that's a, I mean, well, here's the deal, Kevin, we haven't had many important ones, so it's not, there's not a lot of argument. There's not, there's not like what's number two.
Starting point is 00:10:38 Yeah. It's like the day we started. The day we started the first time we got, you know, Jay Cutler on. And then I would say there's like the day we started the first time we got you know jay cutler on uh and then i would say there's like the watershed moments of like you know the first time we got bill burr or some of those big names i think launching ati was like a spin-off of kfc radio that was an important moment we got will we got moments bro fuck you but being at Bert's after party, I was so torn between. I wanted to Instagram. I want to live stream the whole fucking thing. I wanted to take pictures and videos and show it all because I do really feel like there's there's like we're we don't talk much about what we do and we don't like thump our own chests. And sometimes I wish we had better external PR talking about like all the shit that we're doing and achieving. Cause I think,
Starting point is 00:11:30 you know, we put together a really fucking big franchise here, but we don't talk about it ourselves, you know? And I wished in that moment, I could have been like, look here, I'm here with Bert. I'm here with so-and-so I'm here with this guy i'm smoking a blunt with him i'm drinking a beer with her we just talked business with this guy i mean and but i realized the reason why we were like probably invited to that show is because we're just to that that party is just we're normal guys and they like to have fun with us and i didn't want to turn it into a influencer you know let me get these stories off. But for every one motherfucker who will be like, oh, you know, KFC's falling off, or like you're not Dan, or you're not Dave,
Starting point is 00:12:10 or you're, you know, whatever their chirp is, I wish in that moment I could have gone live and just been like, to all of you, like, look what the fuck is going on here. Because it was a very good confidence booster, not only to hang out with them, but what fights was alluding to before. It was a moment, dude. So we're hanging backstage with Bert and a bunch of other comics and Mike
Starting point is 00:12:33 Binder, who is this director of like important documentaries and major movies. And he's got a new Netflix special coming out. And so Bert is, he's like, Oh, let me introduce you guys and he goes these two guys are uh their podcast is the gold standard for east coast podcasts for all the comics everybody knows if you're on the east coast you got to go through these guys show they're the gold standard and john John and I, I watched both. I know that I did it, but I saw you do it too.
Starting point is 00:13:09 Like I physically was taken aback. I was like, I, you know, took my breath away. And Burt goes, come on, you guys know that already. You know that. That was the nicest part was the fact that he like didn't even think he was getting a compliment. He just thought he was like telling LeBron James, like, like hey you're a great basketball player he's like what he's like he's like yeah no you didn't you didn't know you're a great basketball player like it was like syndrome shit comes in because i even said to him i'm like dude you would think that but like
Starting point is 00:13:38 at barstool and this world that we've cultivated and how how how like toxic and hectic it can be. You know, you know, we don't hear that kind of shit real often. And we don't know that. And so coming from a guy who I, you know, I wax poetic about Bert and Tom all the time. I think that they are like just the same level of Rogan when it comes to influence for him to like genuinely say that off camera, no reason to do it other than just believe it. And then the best was not only Bert saying that Mike was like, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. I know you guys. I just like, you know,
Starting point is 00:14:10 he's like, I'm getting old. My, it slipped my brain. Like, I know you guys. And I was like, what, what's going on here? This is fucking incredible. The Mike's Mike's such a big deal that later in the night, Bert was handing out cigars. Bert carries around like thousands of dollars worth of cigars everywhere he goes. It's insane. He has a case. But he was
Starting point is 00:14:27 giving out cigars and in maybe my most awkward moment of all time. It was so good. It was so good. Everyone is like cutting their cigars but it didn't get around
Starting point is 00:14:44 to me. Wait, let me even let me even prep back before that because mike pulls out two cigars from his like jacket pocket like these are the ones that he like took and brought you know and he goes you want one and i had like the two things on my shoulder one being like you don't smoke cigars so don't fucking do it and the other one being like don't say no just do it be cool just fucking do it and i was just like i really i'm gonna end up like embarrassing myself i just said no and then for whatever reason he automatically assumed that you were a yes and you probably would have said yes right oh for sure yeah yeah the the be cool shoulder wins 100 of the 100 of the time no but you know what my be cool shoulder wins 100% of the time. 100% of the time. No, but you know what? My be cool shoulder did win because it was like, if you do this,
Starting point is 00:15:29 you're going to embarrass yourself. Cause you don't know what you're doing. Yeah. Right. So then, so then, so then I just did that. So John does that. And it was so good. It was, there was like, again, like the cigar and like everyone's already smoking their cigars and i was like i have not had my cigar cut yet so i can't fucking smoke it but they're all already smoking the lighter's coming around now at this point yeah i'm like i can't just like i don't i don't know like like my head was like i can't just say this completely normal and acceptable thing.
Starting point is 00:16:06 So find a way to fix it, John. Is there a cigar cutter? It's just a super normal thing to say in a cigar circle. Is there a cigar cutter? I'm not asking this in the middle of mass. We're fucking five dudes standing around smoking cigars that had been cut. Someone probably had a fucking cigar cutter on them. But I didn't want to rock the boat.
Starting point is 00:16:30 I was like, fuck it. Let's just go. So I kind of just like hit. Also, I will say this. In your defense, I don't know if those were pre-cut, if someone cut them all in the green room. I didn't actually see anybody out there clipping. No, there was a clip.
Starting point is 00:16:46 There was a clip. I know there was, but in that moment, like I would have said to you like, Oh yeah, yeah. I saw like, I saw, you know, so-and-so clip it, go ask him. At that point I hadn't seen anybody. So I was like, maybe those guys did bite it. Maybe those guys, I don't know. So it was, it was, it was crazy not to ask, but it wasn't like totally absurd because we hadn't seen one but i i just i just kind of turned and hid for a second and and gnawed off about i don't know a quarter of the cigar probably a third of that cigar i just i gnawed it off and I put it in my pocket, the other part. And then, and then it got,
Starting point is 00:17:28 because there's so much loose tobacco in there as I'm smoking and sucking that it just, it looked like I had brushed my teeth with mulch. Like someone, like someone, like some bully grabbed me on the playground and just fucking rubbed my face in the dirt. I had, I had fucking tobacco leaves everywhere. Just like. My favorite moment of the night. You turn to me and I'm trying to be like discreet.
Starting point is 00:17:54 I'm like, yo, yo, yo. Like you got something right there. And you're like, I know, Kevin. I've got a third of a cigar in my stomach right now. I've got tobacco everywhere. I know. It was like one little piece, but it was like. have a cigar in my stomach right now i've got to go i got tobacco everywhere i know there was like one little piece but it was like it was it was i look like a cartoon i look like a cartoon when they like their teeth are into the piano keys but mine had just turned into
Starting point is 00:18:17 fucking like like like a fucking stick of dynamite had blown up in my mouth and now i've had shards everywhere and so you're i mean you do start to light it but it's like crooked and uneven and leaves are falling i think somebody i wasn't even that drunk at this time this was pretty early this is like it wasn't like it wasn't like some like sloppy mess like i was put together aside from the fact that it was covered in tobacco. But what's good about hanging with that crew, we learned quickly. Somebody was like, yeah, you want me to clean that up for you? Like, yo, what an idiot.
Starting point is 00:18:55 Look at this guy. He's like, yeah, I'll take care of it. I think it was Bert's photographer. He just came in and he's just like, hey, let me get that for you. Let me help you out. Because these guys are cigar guys. You know what I love that they do when they just hold it up in the air i didn't notice that if this when they were standing around like circles of girls or people who weren't smoking they would just hold it up so that the smoke wasn't just like you know i didn't put that together i didn't know i was like what i mean i don't even know maybe this is regular but to just shut down zany's and light up like probably like 20 cigars when it was all said and
Starting point is 00:19:29 done the place is a hot box everyone was hot by we were smoking blunts fucking you know juntos with the glass fucking whatever i got el blanco el blanco boys over here we would love to get involved with that the glass the glass tip blunt is fucking incredible i got i got i actually now that i think about it i didn't even really get that drunk thursday night i got high you got so high i got i got like we all got high because it was like i think it was like snoop weed it was like good weed but we were talking and like i said we were we were in the circle kind of having not important conversations, but ones that I would definitely love to have. I was talking to Bert all night.
Starting point is 00:20:09 We're talking business. We're talking. I'm talking to his team about, you know, behind the scenes and all this shit. So we're all kind of having these long conversations. And at one point, like somebody turned to do something and John just turned to me and he goes, I'm so high. You were you were you were enough with it to know that you were too high to have conversations yeah at one point we were talking to um i think the girl i did i took one i took a monster his only club hit and it was did so that was the funniest part too
Starting point is 00:20:38 burt gave this long speech uh where he was like snoop taught me how to smoke blunts he said like smoke it the whole night let it let it let it uh let put it out relight it take small hits soak it in enjoy it and john went okay yeah monster hits only i dude i only know how to smoke weed one way and one way this is it i mean that was a monster hit of some very good weed. And you were so instantly high. And I just remember talking to Erin, who runs the improv. She has all the locations of the improv room. And she goes, like, are you guys good? Do you guys sell in, like, Cincinnati, Pittsburgh, Milwaukee?
Starting point is 00:21:21 And she mentioned all those. And basically all the grit tour stops. And John was like, games, grit tour, like the words just wouldn't come out of his mouth. And I was like, I know I speak Feidelberg fluently. I was like, yes, there's another podcast that does their own tour called Grit Tour in those cities. We could do that as well. John was just big smiles. I'm like,
Starting point is 00:21:46 it was awesome, man. It was such a good after party. It was like, it was exactly what Bert always kinds of talks about. He said, like I was standing with him and he was like, he's like,
Starting point is 00:21:54 just look at everybody. Like everybody's smiling. Everybody's happy. The work is done. This is what it's about. And I was like, fuck. Yes.
Starting point is 00:22:02 And think about like, they do that, you know, once a week for their big nights of shows a couple of times a weekend, you know, fuck yes. This is what it's about, man. And think about it. They do that once a week for their big nights of shows, a couple times a weekend. Fucking unbelievable. So that was a real – it was – personally, it was just like – it's like going backstage with the rock band. But also professionally to hear that shit, I was like, yo.
Starting point is 00:22:20 If Burt's saying it, it's real. I can't deny it anymore. Not even imposter syndrome. I got to admit. And I know there's a lot of fans out there who probably already agree, but it's, it's a lot different when you're doing it to actually like believe it. And so that was, I hope that we look back and you know, we know that this was,
Starting point is 00:22:42 this was the day that the pilgrimage secret trip was born and the day that we were being talked about. The secret trip. I don't know if we've said it. I don't know what I'm going to say anymore. The secret trip is 100% happening. I had a feeling even in the moment as we did it that it was going to happen.
Starting point is 00:22:58 Actually, we'll do our first clip. We'll be the pilgrimage trip with Bert. It was one of those things that in the moment as we were having a conversation, almost anybody else on earth, if we were interviewing them and they were talking about it, I would have said, that was just a bit. That was fun.
Starting point is 00:23:14 We're never actually going to do this. With Bert Kreischer, I was like, if he's talking about doing this, he does these things. It was the same night. It was, I mean, he left us. We caught up with him again five hours later and everyone was like you don't understand what you've said in motion that that was that was a line i was i was told you don't understand what you said in motion today i wasn't sure until he goes leanne approved it my business manager approved it my agent approved it so like
Starting point is 00:23:41 the holy trinity of the people who would be like come on put the kibosh on this we can't do this they were all down they think it's a great idea for business so the pilgrimage will be happening now here's what he said at one point you guys were you and um and james were having like a conversation and um he goes like shut the fuck up shut up no more talking about it and he was like no no i'm not talking about what you think I'm talking about. And Bert goes Casablanca. And he was like, no, no, no, no, not that. So their code word for our secret trip, secret pilgrimage is Casablanca. And now I need to know, I'm going to go like watch Casablanca and read like reviews of it and learn
Starting point is 00:24:24 what the, what does that mean? Is it, are we going where the, where it was taking place? I was going to say you think deeper than I do. Cause I just thought we were going to Casablanca. I know because it won't, what is the premise of the movie? The premise of Casablanca. I think it's like a romance set in like wartime or something. Isn't it? Yeah. I've been talking about gin bars. I know that.
Starting point is 00:24:44 Romantic film. But I think at the end they're at an airport and like they go somewhere. war time or something isn't it yeah but something about gin bars i know that romantic film but i think at the end they're at an airport and like they go somewhere so is it as simple as yeah it's a romance set in world war ii an american expat must choose between his love for a woman or helping her and her husband escape the uh the germans in the city of casablanca i don't think we're going to to just go to casablanca but maybe it's as simple as that i just thought that i was like there is casablanca italy um casablanca is in it's the largest city in morocco maybe we are going okay whoa hang on a second that's now that becomes much more possible now yeah i didn't know it was in morocco morocco seems like something my britt might go but he wouldn't but he wouldn't do that
Starting point is 00:25:30 he wouldn't really shut the fuck up the city yeah right well i think that's more of like a code word and actually as a matter of fact i don't want to talk about it because everybody was like no more talking about it because we don't want him to like pull the plug if people figure it out. So we're done talking about it, but we will roll the clip to show you the birth, the origin of what turns out to hopefully one day, like I said, looking the, the butterfly effect of how that interview started and what was said leading up to that, to get him to say, Hey, remember when Dave Chappelle just disappeared to get us to say, Hey, wouldn't that be nice to get him to say, well, what city would we do if we did do that? And next thing you know, you know, a, a, a five, six man, whatever European secret vacation is born Dude, by the way, speaking of Chappelle I read an article with
Starting point is 00:26:31 it was an interview with the woman who accused, not accused Louis C.K., but the one who wrote the op-ed that got Louis C.K. busted, really She dropped an all-time line on that, where she was like dropped an all-time line on that where she was like not not an all-time line like but just like the balls it takes to say what she said
Starting point is 00:26:51 yeah she goes she's like i she i never stopped working she goes i'm not a coward like chapelle i didn't run to africa when things got hard oh shit yo but, shit. Yo, but also like, you know, I don't, you can't call it like a coward. Actually, I think Chappelle's the furthest thing from it. Like, I think a coward, because I know it. There are times where I'm like, I should like stop and handle my business and get my life in order.
Starting point is 00:27:21 But I don't because I'm like afraid of what people are going to say or think. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think it takes balls to be like, i'm bailing on greatness because i know you know whatever he was feeling in that moment like i think the people who have the balls to pull the plug on a world tour or whatever to do yeah you give me give up 20 million dollars uh or i think it was 20 at a time right a season i think it was like 40 million with two seasons or whatever.

Starting point is 00:33:18 Okay. When we're thinking, I think Europe is always the right play. I think Europe is always the right play. London's very easy, but I feel like you want to be out of sorts. I feel like you want to not know. I think we shouldn't be able to speak the language.
Starting point is 00:33:36 Language barrier is great. No one can speak the language. No one can speak the language. I'm going to just throw Russia off the list. Let's take Russia and Ukraine off the list. Don can speak the language. I'm going to just throw Russia off the list. Let's take Russia and Ukraine off the list. Okay. Don't speak the language. Are we picking weather-based?
Starting point is 00:33:51 Are we picking nightlife-based food? Is the dinner the thing? Are we picking based on a meal? Is that what we're doing? If we're going for dinner, you think. Yeah, you got to go like that. Hold on. Hold on.
Starting point is 00:34:00 Let's think. Okay, so let's think. Let's think right now. Can you pull up a flight chart? Greece is pretty cool. Greece would be pretty good. Whoa, direct flight. Direct flight.
Starting point is 00:34:09 Oh, yeah. Let's go private, Bert. 250? Yeah, we'll go there. Maybe we'll talk to Penn. Penn just has a plane just sitting around. Maybe we can do the plane. We'll answer it in a list.
Starting point is 00:34:21 We can have Portnoy fucking fund. He's the billionaire. Jesus Christ. Do we take Portnoy fucking fund. He's a billionaire. Jesus Christ. Do we take Portnoy? No. No. No. He's not going.
Starting point is 00:34:30 He's not going. No. No. That's like, that's like, you can't bring me in. I thought you were going to take Bill Burr.
Starting point is 00:34:37 I go, no. No, no, no. Let Portnoy and Bill Burr do their own fucking thing. Those two angry curmudgeons. That's funny. No, no, no. Those two angry curmudgeons. Direct flights to Europe. Let's see. Direct flights to Europe.
Starting point is 00:34:55 Is there like a... We need like New York City. We need a couple more vows. I'm going to go pee real quick. We need like nine underrated places in Europe. Go back We need like nine underrated places in Europe. Go back real quick. Nine underrated places in Europe like this.
Starting point is 00:35:08 Right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's exactly what we're looking for. Portugal. Portugal. Portugal. That's not Europe, right? But that's...
Starting point is 00:35:15 Oh, no, that is right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Portugal. Let's go. Croatia. Croatia. Scotland. No, we're not in Scotland.
Starting point is 00:35:23 Poland. No. I'm sure it's great, but no. I'm heavy Portugal right now. Portugal's a fucking good move. Portugal and Croatia. I'll tell you right now. Hold on.
Starting point is 00:35:33 Nice is fucking going to the... France? Yeah. The... What's it called? The... Red Riviera. Oh, that's like the French Riviera?
Starting point is 00:35:43 New York to Nice? That would be very sick. French Riviera is Oh, that's like the French Riviera? That would be very sick. French Riviera is pretty fucking dope. The Red Riviera? No, no. French Riviera. A nice Red Riviera. Whoa, man.
Starting point is 00:35:57 So then let's also... I'd say the French Riviera. Let's hypothetically say we leave on a Monday. hours. We leave on a Monday, right? We leave on a, let's take a look. That would be perfect for me. That fits my schedule wonderful. Let's take a look.
Starting point is 00:36:15 We don't, that's Monday shows aren't really a thing. Theoretically, if we left on a, yeah, this is great. This is great. We leave on a Monday. We should bring like a tell with us. John, we're going to the French Riviera. French Riviera. Oh, hang on.
Starting point is 00:36:31 Or Portugal. Portugal was going to be mine, but I love the French Riviera. Well, I'm okay with both. Yeah. So then how many days? I'm going to throw something in. I'm going to throw something in that's going to fucking blow your minds you ready for this?
Starting point is 00:36:51 one outfit one outfit no luggage one outfit you get one outfit you get one outfit toothbrush in the pocket I think you got to bring back medication
Starting point is 00:37:04 you got to bring back one you got to bring backpack. One outfit though, it's a one suit weekend. It's a one suit weekend. Will you wear a suit the whole time? No, no,
Starting point is 00:37:11 no, one outfit and I will pick the outfit and I'll just, it should be one outfit. Wait,
Starting point is 00:37:19 one outfit, everyone's wearing the same outfit? Everyone's wearing the same outfit. A tracksuit? A tracksuit? We're all in a tracksuit,
Starting point is 00:37:25 we're all in a tracksuit. We're all in something that matches. And then listen, but here's the question. Do we go in, have dinner, and leave? Or do we go in, spend the day,
Starting point is 00:37:41 have dinner, spend the day, and leave? How much time do we want to spend? Monday to Wednesday. You fly in Monday, stay Tuesday, fly back Wednesday. As much as I would say it's better to do a longer trip, I think there's something to the idea of, like, up, down, up. You know what I mean? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, have you ever been to Portugal? I've been there for about eight hours.
Starting point is 00:37:58 But I also had the best dinner of all time with, like, the fucking modern-day Rat Pack. That's true. The internet Rat Pack. That would be fucking so much fucking fun. I agree with you. I would like to spend because you get to do more shit but there is that fucking The legend. The legend of the
Starting point is 00:38:12 trip. There's no like I'm going to go like nap for a little bit or whatever. It's like let's go. My brain immediately goes to this is what's wrong with me and I know that it takes the fun out of it but my brain goes to the marketing of it going like I can do some reads for fucking fully loaded. I'm fully loaded and we're fully, I can do some reads for fucking, fully loaded, I'm fully loaded,
Starting point is 00:38:26 and we're fully, like, I'll text Mark Norman, go, hey, you want to come to fucking Portugal with us? And he'll be like, hey,
Starting point is 00:38:31 howdy, howdy, gay, Jew, Portugal. Yeah, get it, all right.
Starting point is 00:38:41 But those are the broad strokes, we can figure out the details, the particulars of clothing, and hours, and all that. Yeah. I just don't want big suitcases. I want it to be streamlined.
Starting point is 00:38:51 Streamlined. Straight up to the airport. By the way, everyone will have a Speedo. You know I'm racing Caleb Dressler. I know. Everyone will have a Speedo. Well, everyone will get a Speedo in case we want to go to the beach. Sure.
Starting point is 00:39:01 I like that. I love this idea. All right. I love this idea. Let's end on that. I think that's a this idea. I love this idea. Let's end on that. Before we figure out some reasons why this doesn't work or something. It's going to work. Simply put, it could end up being the biggest
Starting point is 00:39:15 moment of our careers. When this goes down, Bert and his team, John and me with Nick documenting it, it's going to be this internet pilgrimage that, you know, people and their favorite comics and their favorite podcasters all coming together to go do some, I'll be honest, I'm a little nervous about it. I'm straight up nervous about it because Bert's fucking crazy, man. And they do crazy shit.
Starting point is 00:39:39 The travel channel guy was like, yeah, we're going to put on like those flying squirrel suits. And we're going to like go base jumping. And I'm going i'm gonna be like uh this is the first time i've left my couch in like 48 years thanks but but i'm fucking terrified but either way once in a lifetime trip we actually had a moment in the after party and i think he singled me out because i think he knows john's kind of crazy he knows i'm like a dad and shit he like looked me in the eyes he's like are you down so you don't have to like i don't want to pressure you but like if you're gonna do this we got to do this i want to know that you're in i don't want any like wishy-washy shit i could replace you whatever it was and i never like stood i like put my two feet down locked eyes and i was like i'm fucking in burt i'm telling my nanny
Starting point is 00:40:21 my baby mama the family everybody's to have to be on duty. Like you got to take the kids. I'm going to fucking Antarctica with Burt. Who knows? But, uh, yeah, one of the best clips that's ever happened. Cause who knows where it ends up leading us when it's all said and done. Um, hopefully we look back on that being like, you know, when we really took off was when Burt introduced us to his audience on the pilgrimage. And that's when everything changed. That's what I'm hoping for. That's like the highest.
Starting point is 00:40:51 The lowest is like, remember that time we fucking, you know, we went to Morocco for 72 hours with Burt? That was pretty awesome. I've been saying for years that I think Burt Kreischer is the number one overall pick when it comes to podcasting and comedy and content. Not that he's necessarily the funniest or the best technical or the best skills, but I think you put the whole package together, he is just the best in the goddamn game. If I had to pick one, though, right now for who's riding the biggest wave, who's got the hottest streak going in current times,
Starting point is 00:41:27 it's Shane Gillis. Dude, I was so happy for Shane. Watching him in Nashville and I mean, I'm sure this has been happening for him for a little while now, but it's the first time I witnessed it. Watching the people come up to him, the people who want to take pictures, the people who are yelling out all his inside jokes and the and the the taglines from the podcast and the amount of attention he got and the pop that he gets on stage uh and and then of course like the jokes that he goes out there and tells it's he's second to none right now and for a guy who you, so many people who get canceled or lose a gig or lose jobs or contracts,
Starting point is 00:42:08 money, lives, whatever, they are, they get very like defensive, right? And they're kind of like, like, fuck that. You know, you can't take me down. You can't stop me. I'll, you know, I'll fight back and they become the face of the resistance and all that shit. And Shane has always been pretty honest about like, he's like, I'm an emotional guy. The haters, they hurt me and losing the job was bad and I wish it didn't happen. And I began to second guess myself and I got in my own head and all that shit. So to know that that's what he was going through. He said on many podcasts, it was hard for him and he had kind of like the jitters when it
Starting point is 00:42:46 came to telling jokes because that was always in the back of his mind. To seeing now that he's won. He won the battle. I remember early on I said this to him off camera. I said I once said to you, this will be the best thing that's ever happened to you. And he
Starting point is 00:43:02 had said like, no it's not. I wish I got a job at Saturday Night Live working with like, you know, that's still SNL big deal. And I understood what he was saying. But I think now watching where it's gone and where it's about to go, I think it will end up being the best thing that's happened to him. And he had to go through hell to get it. But he's there now.
Starting point is 00:43:21 And speaking of that, I think I did say this on last week's episode. But during that same conversation, he mentioned just how big their Patreon is, but how he's there now. And speaking of that, I think I did say this on last week's episode. But during that same conversation, he mentioned just how big their Patreon is. But how he's only making a fraction of the money he deserves. Because he and Matt McCusker were cool enough to say, fuck it, we're only charging a dollar to subscribe. And he was a man of the people. And he put his money where his mouth is. And he only charged people four quarters to get his extra content the amount of money they they could and should be sitting on if he was just a regular like it's five bucks you know it's obviously five times the amount so if you're if you're a patron and you
Starting point is 00:43:58 paid for a dollar just upgrade and give him the five bucks because he deserves it and it shouldn't have ever even been available for a dollar anyway, because he's that level of comic and he was doing it out of the goodness of, you know, his heart. So why don't you pay it back and give him the five bucks now, because the amount of patrons they've, they've amassed,
Starting point is 00:44:15 go to, go to patron, go to patron and look at the number that they've, uh, the number of patrons they have and the amount of money rolling in. It don't equate, bro. It ain't right. They should be making, you know, almost five times the amount of money rolling in it don't equate bro it ain't right they should
Starting point is 00:44:25 be making you know almost five times the amount do the right thing and hook up uh hook up the dogs shane and matt um so if burt was number one shane number two this week uh we we did he is just he's funny he's mean He's quick with it. He was clowning us. We got a chance to watch the Mets-Phillies with him. And me and Pabs went nuts. It was the game that Lindor, they tied it with a reverse call in the ninth. And then Lindor walked it off in the tenth.
Starting point is 00:45:01 And me and Pabs were jumping and hugging. And he was like, dude, it is like the third week of the season. You guys are so gay. Calm down. And I was like, you're right. You're fucking right. But, uh,
Starting point is 00:45:11 that was all after an unbelievable interview with him. The best of Shane Gillis on KFC radio in Nashville. It's brought to you by Coinbase. Same way, uh, that Shane, it's the year of Gillis in the comedy world. It is the year of Coinis in the comedy world. It is the year of Coinbase in the crypto world.

I don't know what they did. They shipped them out or something? I don't know what they did. They shipped him out or something?
Starting point is 00:46:45 I don't know what they did. They broke all their tents, said, get out of here. Really? Yeah, they had like a tent village under this bridge. Like, it was crazy. Like a Hooverville? Yeah, it was a Hooverville. And then they went in and broke it up.
Starting point is 00:46:57 Kind of makes sense. I'd break up. At some point, you know. It's been long enough. We've let this happen long enough. Like the Hoovervilles were supposed to be... Isn't that a sad thing? Wasn't that all vets and shit? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:08 They sent in other troops to break it up or something in D.C.? I don't know shit about history. No, Hooverville was in... I support the... When I was younger. I thought it was in Central Park in New York. I thought it was, at least. I think maybe a Hooverville was just any...
Starting point is 00:47:23 A thing, yeah. It was just any homeless thing. Yeah, it was during the Great Depression when people just didn't have anywhere to thing. Yeah. Just any homeless thing. Yeah. It was during the great depression. People just like, didn't have anywhere to live. So they just got Biden bills. Kid rocks the best.

Starting point is 00:47:49 Dude, if he made a comeback, forget about it. If he makes a comeback, you're going to be the richest comedian in the world. Dude, last night at that show. Oh, here's the show. Oh, yeah. Thank you. And yeah, this is the tank top I picked up. Dude, this is how fucking, how nice is this shirt?
Starting point is 00:48:03 El Rush. That's sick. It's like a long, fashionable t-shirt. I got this at the thrift store yesterday. El Rushbow was the greatest nickname of all time. We came away from the thrift store with absolutely political, diametrically opposed shirts. I got a J for democracy, and he got El Rushbow. Dude, look at you.
Starting point is 00:48:25 Jacked. and he got El Rushbow. Dude, look at you. Jack. Jack, dude, you got a body like fucking Alex Jones. It's spot on. It's spot on. I got sunburned too, so I'm the after picture
Starting point is 00:48:42 right now. I always said it's kind of like Vince McMahon during the Attitude Era, but Alex Jones is up there. Did you see Vince at WrestleMania? It was sad to see. I know. He's still doing it. It was fun.
Starting point is 00:48:54 That stunner was just the worst. Stunner was bad. But it was so bad it became good. You know what I mean? It was still nice. Dude, you are, oh my God. You're Alex Jones. I got his head.
Starting point is 00:49:06 I don't know what's worse. That is fucking hilarious. Alex Jones is a beast. He really is. I wouldn't fuck with that guy. Dude, he would spaz. He would spaz on people. One of these days, he's going to just fully.

Starting point is 00:49:34 That is spot on, man. We got to get a before and after. I mean, the picture of you that we just pulled up at Boston is sort of like the before. And then you're the after. Dude, look how all he got was hairier. Well, he got a sunburn. What is this sunburn? What was the before and after for?
Starting point is 00:49:50 45 days later, he just got a hairy. Heidelberg's fat. What the fuck, man? He was running the Google machine. Look at that set of titties, though. You look good. Yeah, look at that. Yeah, compared to them, yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:06 That was just a young boy. That's a supple boy. You had your baby fat on you. Yeah, I was saying it looks like, I got titties like an orangutan mother. Just breast fat. Just fucking decent. Just fucking sucked on those things.
Starting point is 00:50:19 Those are nice cans. I got my tits rubbed a little bit last night what? this chick was making she was like I think qualified as a cougar she was ugly but she was older cougar age right and she like by accident
Starting point is 00:50:38 bumped into me and then like put her hand right here and kind of like let it linger and like pushed it a little bit. Oh. And I was like, ah. And I kind of went like that, and she walked by, and then he told me that she went to her friend and went, well, that didn't work.
Starting point is 00:50:54 Oh, shit. She went for it? I was like, you're going to rub my insecurities? You're not going to get me? That's not going to work. I was like, man, for a minute I felt like a chick there. I was getting assaulted. She just grabbed me by the pussy.
Starting point is 00:51:05 That was it, right? Yeah, true. The friend I'm with gave me like three different fucking tit lips yesterday. I was like, dude, what are you doing? Like, that's a fight.
Starting point is 00:51:15 Stop doing it. I feel like I'm being really bad about myself. I don't want that at all. Stop doing it. You can't be like that. I was like, all right. Literally, I'd rather get
Starting point is 00:51:21 sack dabbed than kids. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, scoop. You feel the bounce. The drop. People who didn't grow up with tits don't know those skinny little motherfuckers with the bird chest. It's like, dude, you don't know I have an extra bounce.
Starting point is 00:51:34 It doesn't just go down for me. It goes down, comes up, and goes back down. When was the last time you were on a trampoline? Oh, my God. If I went on a trampoline. I jumped on a trampoline with my kids recently. They got a trampoline in their backyard. The bounce is your stomach and your chest.
Starting point is 00:51:49 It is so demoralizing. Yeah. And it also physically does not feel good. Like it kind of hurts. Yeah, my knees and shit. Oh, you mean your tits hurt. Oh, but yeah. I mean, I was like, they were like, jump and bounce with me.
Starting point is 00:51:59 And I was like, I jumped for like 25 seconds. And I was like, I'm fucking done. You turned into a dog. You're like, lay down, bounce me. That's exactly what I did. They were like, can jumped for like 25 seconds. And I was like, I'm fucking done. You turned into a dog. You're like, lay down. Bounce me. That's exactly what I did. They were like, can you bounce me, Dad? And I was like, okay, your turn.
Starting point is 00:52:10 And I just laid down. Obviously trying to bounce me. Nothing's happening. Yeah, the tit bounce. I forget what grade I was in. I was starting to get fat. I wasn't always fat. Starting to get fat.
Starting point is 00:52:21 And I was on the school bus just jiggling. And one of my buddies was like, let's change face, bounce. I was like, oh, you cocksucker. I'll never forget this. Now every time I'm on public transportation, I'm like, flex, flex, flex, don't bounce. That's like part of your villain origin story. My face jiggling. That was like what set you in motion to be the comic you are today.
Starting point is 00:52:44 All right, I'm going to be funny. You're a funny guy. Yeah, I'm not going to stop eating. Better ratchet up the comic. All right, big thanks to the Young Bull, Shane Gillis. Big thanks to Mama Gillis. What's her name?
Starting point is 00:52:59 His dad's name is Phil and his mom's name is something like So Mom. I think it's like Janet. I think it's like Phil and Janet. Whatever. That's her name now. Big shout out to Janet Gillis for giving birth to the young bull, Shane. Thanks to all the moms out there.
Starting point is 00:53:13 Thanks to Jackie's mom for birthing Jackie. All right? Thanks to, I don't know if you saw any of the clips of the live show or if we've talked about it, but Jackie wanted to fuck Feidelberg's dad, which is funny because, you know, Jackie can talk about banging Feidelberg's dad all she wants. If I were to talk about fucking Jackie's mom right now, it would be like, whoa, whoa, hey, come on, calm down. So I won't do that.
Starting point is 00:53:41 I'm not going to do that. But I'll get her some flowers. And you should get your mom flowers too. Get all the women in your life, all the moms in your life flowers. I got to get my mom. I got to get my kid's mom. You got to get grandmas and aunts and everybody out there who has gone through the struggle of momming. Because there ain't nothing harder on the planet Earth than that, man.
Starting point is 00:54:02 And, you know, flowers, nothing can be enough to thank mothers. But it's a start, and it's a little token. So chicks love flowers, and flowers are good for moms.

Starting point is 00:55:20 But country music is a big part of Nashville, and we wanted to get a little bit of the Nashville flavor, so we had a couple guys who were on tour in Nashville in the moment that we were there, Brantley Gilbert and Chase Rice. Now, Chase Rice is a guy I've known for a while. He's been a stoolie, not a huge country music guy, but I've known Chase, and I know his music because he's been one of our fans and tweeted with us and followed us and hangs out with fucking
Starting point is 00:55:45 marty and glennie and those guys brantley gilbert fucking country music superstar who happened to be in and he showed up looking like straight out of sons of anarchy i'm surprised he didn't have the motorcycle cut on uh so we got two country music's bests and i'll put these guys up there with anybody else like you talk to some entertainers and singers and they're famous and they're rich and they know it. And so it gets like, you know, a little awkward. These guys are just dudes. They're just guys.
Starting point is 00:56:13 They're just bros. They just want to talk and hang out and shoot the shit and clown around. Brantley Gilbert had like comedic timing. He was like, hey, it was killing it. And Chase, what can I say about Chase? Other than he let Glennie determine his playlist at Madison Square Garden. So the best of clips from the country music superstars on KFC Radio.
Starting point is 00:56:33 What do you think the value of your cowboy boots and hats are? Man, I don't have a cowboy hat. I always tell folks, you know, just because I'm in country music, I guess there's, you know, a lot of folks want to. I just wear a bow cap. Yeah. And there is kind of two different music, I guess there's, you know, a lot of folks want to. I just wear a bow cap. Yeah. There is kind of two different vibes, I feel like. I don't wear cowboy eggs. I'm not a fucking cowboy.
Starting point is 00:56:52 To me, that feels like fucking cultural appropriation. If you're not like in a rodeo and you're not a fucking horseman or some shit. We know what we're talking about. We know the lingo, Brantley. I am not a horseman. I refuse to wear that. That's what I'm telling motherfuckers from now on, dude.
Starting point is 00:57:16 You can't wear it. Fuck no, I'm not a horseman. You can fuck right off of me, man. That's awesome. Yeah. That is fucking funny. What about boots? You do the boots? Yep, man. Regular me, man. That's awesome. Yeah. That is fucking funny. What about boots? Do you do the boots?
Starting point is 00:57:27 Yep, man. Regular boots, yeah. He's like, no, regular person, man. Honestly, I'm kind of bored on that side of stuff. No, I think it's a real identity. As opposed to a cartoon. You're like walking around like shooting six guns. It is weird, though,. I get ready to pack
Starting point is 00:57:48 on the road. I don't really pack anymore. All my stuff pretty much stays on the bus. My wife will tell you what I wear on stage is what I wear around the house. So you're just living out of the bus though right now? No.
Starting point is 00:58:03 I've got a house and shit. No, but you said... Shit ain't that bad, bro. I'll say this though. I have no musical skills, don't know much about the industry. I would say if you're letting Glennie Balls dictate some of the songs you perform on stage at Arena, it's not a good idea. To his defense, it was Billy Joel and the Gargoyle.
Starting point is 00:58:31 We were really hammered when we came up with that idea. And it worked. That one actually worked. Was that in the moment, or was that a bet? How does Glennie Balls get you to perform Piano Man on stage at your concert? When we were drunk on the bus the night before. They rode with us from Boston to New York City. And, yeah, just riding on the bus.
Starting point is 00:58:53 I have no idea how it started. Probably just Glenny making it up. Well, Glenny, you know, he's probably just singing Piano Man and talking about Billy Joel because that's all he fucking knows ever. He loves it. Yeah, I don't know how it got started, but I picked up. I think he was singing or something so I picked up the guitar and just started playing it
Starting point is 00:59:06 and I never learned it but it's pretty easy and I said bro or he probably said you won't play that at the garden tomorrow night so I started doing it and I'd play it at the garden
Starting point is 00:59:15 I mean you're right it is Billy Joel it is the garden we're not talking about some like little act that nobody knows but like is your crowd like
Starting point is 00:59:22 what are we doing here or like they just roll with it yeah i mean so play the night before yeah so i get up there i'm playing key west and colorado brand new song just me and a guitar and i get to the end of that song and i'm i start playing piano man but what i didn't realize was the night before in the bus we're just singing it like sing us a song oh the piano man. Singing it low like that. And I didn't realize it's low and it goes extremely high in the chorus if you're going to sing it full voice. So I get in the chorus and I just go for it. Oh no.
Starting point is 00:59:53 And it was way higher than any song I've ever sang in my life. At least in the key that I was singing in. And so I just pulled off the mic and they started singing it. So I was singing it. Let me hear you. It was way up there. But they sang it sang it so yeah i didn't look that bad but that's hilarious kind of let them in a little secret there with the crowd saved me that night i knew i knew that marty and glennie had gone with you so i just texted marty this morning like yo chase is coming by like anything specific you think we should bring up or talk about and he's like like, yeah, when Glennie Manning was being the man in the garden. And I was like, whoa. What?
Starting point is 01:00:28 You mean, like, in the dressing room or something? He's like, no, I did it on stage. On stage at a sold-out arena. Jesus Christ. But like I said, it worked. It shouldn't have worked at all, but it worked. I'll tell you what. I'm not a man.
Starting point is 01:00:42 We all know that. I'm a boy. I'm like a man, we all know that, I'm a boy, I'm a, I'm a, I'm a, like a, a little girl boy, everybody knows that I'm not, not tough, and I'm not macho, and, but when I'm in a room with guys like that, I'm like, oh, I am, I am really a pussy, like, straight out of the fucking, the Yankees fan the other day, I am a fucking pussy, these guys are, you know, on their motorcycles, shooting their guns, chewing their tobacco, driving their trucks, singing their country music. It is just like, oh, that's what dudes are supposed to be.
Starting point is 01:01:13 And you, sir, you are not a dude, Kevin. Clean it up. Man, they make me feel bad about myself. So those were the highlights of all of our trip to Nashville. I recommend going back to the page and watching all those interviews in total because they all, those are the best moments, but there's funny moments throughout all those interviews. Everything that we did live on KFC Radio, radio is available on demand on the YouTube.
Starting point is 01:01:39 We also left Chris O'Connor and Nate Marshall, who they came through. Those guys are new up-and-coming comics. Chris lives with Tommy and Shane, and Nate's on the road with Shane, and they just got fucked up on whiskey and were just letting it fly. That was like they didn't even realize cameras were on. So that's a YouTube exclusive. Go watch that specifically because that might have been the funniest interview of the whole fucking – I don't even call it an interview.
Starting point is 01:02:05 That might have just been the funniest like hangout where we happen to have cameras and mics on the whole week. But the best interview that has not been aired yet at all goes to Nate Bargatze. Nate is the goat in my mind. I was one of Nate's first interviewers. He was one of my first interviewees back when he was just doing a couple minutes on the late night show, on the Tonight Show. He was doing his skinny fat routine
Starting point is 01:02:32 before he had that glow up where he became a bajillionaire and got all hot and shit. I was talking to him about skinny fat on Mail Time. We always have this thing where he's always like, you were one of my first podcast interviews. And I'm like, you were one of the first comics to give me a shot.
Starting point is 01:02:48 So this is, you know, several times now we've had Nate on. But every time it's better than the last. And this one, he's just so fucking funny with it. And he's got a whole new business venture coming out where he's directing and producing podcasts in that whole realm of quote-unquote clean comedy where he's figured out, he's mastered that. Learn how to make all the money you can just by changing your act a little bit. It's fascinating stuff. So Nate Bargatze on KFC Radio is brought to you by BetterHelp.
Starting point is 01:03:19 Nate's also a guy who, you know, he talked about getting sober and getting healthy and living a better lifestyle, and he has a firm about getting sober and getting healthy and living a better lifestyle. And he has a firm grasp on that and it seems like he's killing it. It's not as easy for everyone else. It's hard to, you know, give up some of your vices and it's hard to, you know, age appropriately and wisely. And sometimes you need help and it's hard to get help when you got to go to a doctor. You got to get referred by someone and find the right fit and travel to them and sit in their waiting room. And they have those fucking sound machines going at every door and they have to whisper and be quiet. Somebody sees you. It's weird. Still stigma attached to it as much as I hate to say it. That's where better help comes
Starting point is 01:03:58 in because you can just do it all online. You can do it via zoom. You can do it with a video chat. You can do it with texting. You can do it with a video chat. You can do it with texting. You can do it with calling. All because you don't want to travel somewhere. You don't want to waste any time. Within 48 hours you can get paired up with a I was going to say with a comic. You can get paired up with a psychiatrist,
Starting point is 01:04:18 psychologist and they will start that journey with you. If you don't like them, get a new one. On to the next one. You don't have to waste all this time. You can find somebody that's good as quick as possible and start the whole process. Whether you like to just text,

Let's talk to him. you kicked it anywhere thank you you want You want one? Here you go.
Starting point is 01:05:46 Am I here? Yeah. Heard you had a long day, too? Yeah, just had to run around. We're gonna get it. We're gonna get through it. This is the longest. We're doing positive affirmations. Oh, yeah, dude. Feed the good wolf. Are they gonna see you?
Starting point is 01:06:03 See this beautiful face. How far are you going from here? Like 25 minutes south. Y'all could have done this in my house. Yeah, we could have done that. Would have been easier for you and better for us probably. Boy, if you ever, I mean, if you, you know, we have a studio. We bring the cameras in but we
Starting point is 01:06:25 don't have my podcast is in my house no that's the way to do it and you and your your buddies who are in college just come over yeah that's the way to do it are we rolling by the way yeah yeah that is the that's the dream man that's the dream to sit there and podcast and you have to go no more than what is in your basement up top or bottom there's like in the office yeah you want to start just doing it from my house we'll go get a house soon no i don't want to do it from your house the rx studio is close to my house yeah that's true yeah you're doing from my house yeah i mean i feel like um the last few times we talked like early on you you weren't in the podcast game and then most
Starting point is 01:07:06 recently i think you were starting to dabble with it but now you're like full-blown yeah yeah i mean i guess world yeah i like you you know you you get it never is against it like but it was like you get it and you see that it's this kind of new way it's going and people are watching stuff and it's it's perfect for a comedian and the main reason i started was like covid was not on the road but you still want to be funny like so it's a muscle and i mean i've seen a lot of comics like now that come out of covid and like you're like oh you can tell like you haven't been doing shit you haven't been nothing and so it was like even if you're like once a week i can go talk for an hour and a half two hours and just stay funny and it ends up being like good y'all
Starting point is 01:07:45 give me this place y'all change this address it was like trying to meet like a mafia member was it really yeah no i'm joking but it was like after it was like there's like three different it was just very funny to be like hey you're like all right it's moved which it was very last minute it's like still to be determined and it kept like i was trying to do an interview with like saddam and you're like it was like i don't know any of this is going on you know because we i think i think you confirmed that you'd come on very graciously before we even had a house here oh so you probably saw every update i mean it's very funny just to be you're like what are y'all doing there like who's that like pull up and we're just in like the middle of nowhere yeah
Starting point is 01:08:23 like stilinsky's here. I'm like, oh, you're like, all right, well that makes sense. And you're like, I didn't know y'all were doing all that.
Starting point is 01:08:30 You know, we're going to talk to him. We're like, Hey man. When we, when I pulled up in the taxi from the airport, I was like, this can't be right.
Starting point is 01:08:41 Yeah. Cause it was like the middle of the night. I'm next to this like abandoned and fucking parking lot. I was like, I don't think we're staying here no we are yeah it looks nice yeah it looks nice on the outside it is it's gonna fall apart yeah yeah it's very yeah yeah it's one of those it got put up quick yeah yeah which i'd imagine i mean you've probably watched this whole fucking city oh the whole and we i've been talking about it this week construction yes
Starting point is 01:09:02 we have a big uh our big skyscraper is a batman building it's at&t building so when that got built it was a big deal when it was like oh wow we look like a real city and then now it's not even you wouldn't even i mean you notice it but it's like just it's you're like oh yeah it's over there and you're like it's so great new york is weird like that now too i guess it just because it steadily happened and i was there my whole life i didn't notice it but you know it used to be empire state building a little bit of the chrysler building and the towers yeah and then the freedom tower replaced that but that was it and now it's like 100 story apartment building over here 95 apartments over there you know like the whole city looks different i've ever seen the world trade center in uh it probably was like 99 or something like that or 2000 99 probably and we
Starting point is 01:09:43 went and i remember how big they looked and it's because there's two of them and i guess it was like 99 or something like that or 2000 99 probably and we went and i remember how big they looked and it's because there's two of them and i guess it's like because even you see the new one you're like it doesn't feel no it doesn't feel like the way i was like you're close i like two it's like you know it's yeah i mean i told people i was like god when you saw it it was like i was so glad i got to see it because it was like overwhelming when you saw it and maybe the city wasn't what it's now and you see the new one you're like i know and it's big as fuck it's huge yeah it's not like two of them is crazy yeah like it was like they kind of should have ran it back with two yeah you know three yeah you know go one more keep going yeah we're doing this whole city
Starting point is 01:10:21 like this thing will sink to the ground but we'll sink it. You're not going to sink it. We're sinking on our own. I never got to see them. I was supposed to go. I grew up in Massachusetts. And then for an eighth grade class trip, we were supposed to go in November or something like that. Go down to New York. Go down to D.C.
Starting point is 01:10:43 September 11th, change those plans and oh is that year oh shit yeah that's and so we changed our plans and we went to fucking lancaster county pennsylvania instead we went to a turn in butter we were like we're a couple like 13 year olds ready to rip up new york city and dc and we went out to amish country that's i've been to lancaster i thought they were gonna say maybe philly which is like all right but at least no we went to to Amish country. I've been to Lancaster. I thought they were going to say maybe Philly, which is like, all right, but at least it's a city. we went to Lancaster.
Starting point is 01:11:07 I've been to Lancaster. So this is where y'all are kind of at, this area. This area's even changing a lot. But before I started comedy, I delivered a lot of, I delivered mattresses to houses or a lot of delivery company.
Starting point is 01:11:19 And I talk about something in my act. I worked with a guy, Jamie Mueller. I still talk, I don't mind. It doesn't matter. Jamie, Jamie's been shot in the face before and so how does that work like like in the cheek oh yeah like he is a bad drug dealer so for i mean my boss first day my boss is like by the way before you ride with jamie's been shot in the face like don't bring it up and i mean i'm like i wasn't waiting on it i immediately i'm just like
Starting point is 01:11:45 what happened like i mean i'm 19 i'm like what happened to your face and he's like a drug dealer went bad and like so he's doing great and then we are so he's driving a truck and we're kind of over back in this area and this is you know has to be again like 98 99 something like that and uh we get caught we are we deliver the house to this old lady's house a fridge oh i was doing refrigerators at that time yeah i mixed it up just bro fridges beds i we were just like one of those guys put the belt on and you had the straps you could like we were this is uh a little old school no belt just hands yeah with our back yeah that's what it was it was like knees were just people were there's rumors about you should use your knees but it wasn't we weren't doing it we were still heavy back you know and then so we delivered this old refrigerator we i remember this old old lady and we move her
Starting point is 01:12:37 refrigerator out and pull it out there's a dead cat behind the refrigerator and we're like oh hey like there's a dead cat back she goes oh that's where it is you know like she's i mean she's in her 80s like she's just rotten or like it's like just like no it's been there for a minute and then we just put the refrigerator back over it like you're like we don't do everything you know like we just moved it back in and then we made the corner and then we got caught in a drive-by uh yeah they we just hear like this popping behind us and we're in a big 24 foot box truck and we see this kid run and it sounded like fireworks yeah like he did he set off firecrackers
Starting point is 01:13:23 he's take off running and then we see, and they just lit up this house. And then they shoot at our truck to get us to, because we're on like a one-lane road, basically, to get us to move over. And then they shot. They went through the whole truck, went about six feet above my head. Whoa. Like you could have just honked, guys. I mean, I'm driving the grass. You're clearly not following the laws anymore.
Starting point is 01:13:43 So maybe just drive around. Not mention you hit you hit me well now you're really not now we're really not getting out of the way yeah i've been shot yeah and then but i was with him and he was like well you should it's the only time i've ever been that you have to fill to see if you're shot but i was with the guy that's been shot before so he knew all the things to do like he just check everything because you might not know at first and then i'm like oh all right everything was stories about that we're like i think it was like a soldier or something like that was like it's like i was out in the field for 12 hours or some shit like that i don't know the whole story but he's like i was basically i'd been
Starting point is 01:14:16 shot for nine hours and i didn't realize it till i got home i took my boots off and like i just dumped blood out of it oh yeah, I've been hitting the leg. That's why I was tired. You know, I thought it was a cramp. I had French toast this morning. I was like, shouldn't have had that. Turns out it was a bullet. I still eat French toast. What do you think
Starting point is 01:14:38 of the transformation? I know, like, I feel like some people don't like that it's like a bachelorette and bachelor party town now. They miss the old way or whatever. But I also feel like it's also feel like some people don't like that it's like a bachelorette and bachelor party town now they miss the old way or whatever but i also feel like it's also become like a it's a cool city yeah yeah yeah the old way you could get shot downtown and you can still do it now yeah you still get shot now but there's pretty girls walking around and you're like uh like little penis straws on their hands but you're bleeding out still yeah it's okay you see the fun and you're like this was worth it there it's it's
Starting point is 01:15:10 it's a good thing it's a good thing for nashville i you know when i moved back here i was worried that people thought i would quit con like i quit comedy i didn't tell anybody at first yeah and uh and then now it's like people are moving here and stuff and comics are moving here and the entertainment business is very big here and so i i think it's great that it's like people are moving here and stuff and comics are moving here and the entertainment business is very big here. And so I think it's great that it's changing. If you that stuff, there is a lot of the bridal stuff and all that. That's a Broadway. Like, so if you go to a Broadway, it's like, well, that's a zoo down there.
Starting point is 01:15:36 That's going to Times Square. You're like, you want to have it. You're like, it's there. But if you just go a couple blocks over, you're like, it's not. You can get all the culture and you can see all the other stuff so but if that's all the honky-tonk bars i mean i was down there today and it's like it's packed people on the tootsies they're on the top and it's like you're like yeah go down there for that when they had the draft here it was unreal the draft was i mean it was it was so cool to see and like just the amount of people that came out and hung out on
Starting point is 01:16:03 that broadway and yeah all that and it was awesome so i i like that and we get a lot more traffic now you know yes people that have lived here we have lived here my whole life and so some of the older people they don't like the traffic and they don't but you know you don't come downtown you used to never come downtown and now you just don't come it's safe to go but it's not yeah you don't come you don't come because for a different reason yeah i actually haven't noticed much traffic i mean i guess it's like early it's not bad yeah well i mean you're in new york it's going to be it's not even close like so yeah you get the aspects of that but like it's you know they have a you know highway around the city and stuff all that whatever they do whatever city whatever city does yeah you know they they do the things how did uh how did last
Starting point is 01:16:42 night go last night was the first Nateland production, right? Yeah. Yeah. Mike Vecchione's special. So I'll definitely be hitting you up when that comes out. Absolutely. But it was great. Mike Vecchione is an unbelievable comedian. And it's a guy that was in New York City. He's like one of us.
Starting point is 01:17:01 He's like a New York comic. He's a comics comic. I mean, just fun, does jokes. Like, it's just straight up about jokes. Like, David Tell was like, it's, you know, Tell's, I would say, is the only comic I would pay to go see. Yeah. Because he's super, it's just so fun. You're going to have fun.
Starting point is 01:17:17 It's like, you feel like it's not serious. And Mike Becky. Sorry to interrupt. We saw him at the night. That's my wife. Is she okay? Yeah, she'll be all right. Okay. Yeah. You want a bottle? Here here's a bottle give her a bottle yeah um the uh really sprung into action there nate yeah i see her call of all time she'll be all right let her work it out let
Starting point is 01:17:36 her work it out she needs to learn don't give her anything we were we saw him i want to worry about mike obviously but the uh we saw so a tell at the 9-11 fund yeah you got a ton of 9-11 stuff today we're just coming in hot with all night we're never gonna get out of it you're like my aunt's wedding was 9-11 2014 and it was oh my god dude. You got a lot on your shoulders, dude. You're right. You got a lot on. You're carrying a lot. It was the most recent one with Pete Davidson and Jon Stewart.
Starting point is 01:18:12 Yeah, yeah. Everybody was there, man. It's like you were the only guy who wasn't there. He played the flute, like, the whole time. Yeah. The recorder. Recorder. He plays the recorder.
Starting point is 01:18:20 Which is funny, man. Like, he has a whole thing about it. But the recorder was really, like, it's such a weird thing that I think, like, two or three whole generations all can relate to. Maybe pull out a recorder, like, every single kid played a fucking recorder in first grade for whatever reason. So even just working that into his act I thought was brilliant. Let alone sitting there playing it. It's being, like, what comedy should be. Sometimes comics, I think, can, I don't want to say all comics, but some can think that, you know, we always talk about platform. playing it it's being like what comedy should be in the good that sometimes comics i think can i
Starting point is 01:18:45 don't want to say all come but some can think that i don't know i was talking about platform like or i don't know i like i'm anti-platform so like if you have a platform how about you just do what you do like don't meaning like be funny or be entertaining or if your platform is news then be news if your platform is not that then just do it it'll flip like so it's like instead of like the idea of it should be entertaining and then like yeah you can highlight stuff here and there but it's the highlighting has become more and the entertaining is going the other way yeah and you're like well just remember why we're even here yeah because if you if you don't fix that balance then everyone i'm gone like i can't listen to you it's like every day when you go
Starting point is 01:19:20 buy something like you want to donate money to blah blah whatever and you're like where's this money even going dude like where is it even i don't trust that it's going i don't know where it's going when i the most it happens everywhere now but the most infuriating one is when you go to whole foods and they're like do you want to donate a dollar to whatever yeah have bezos do it yeah i'm trying to just get a 12 fucking apple right now i've gone through all my stuff. I never got over 9-11. He goes, I never got over it. And now I'm paying these prices. This Apple, by the way, $9.11.
Starting point is 01:19:53 You think I didn't see that? Just losing it. He goes, all right, dude, all right. If someone gives you money behind it, they're like, do you need money? Don't need a dollar to me. They're crazy. And you got to tell this girl that doesn't care but you tell her no you feel like all she does is care i can't believe do they have to like ask you that because if i was working there
Starting point is 01:20:14 i'd be like i'm not asking you if you're a company round up that's your best chance yeah i can start saying no rounding up you i'll always do whatever uh but if you ask i can i'm getting better at going now i don't know where this is going i think this is going to go to i don't think it's going to go where i want it to go it doesn't go to that when you're paying with credit card you know push here to donate a dollar like no nope yeah that feels like a shit when i was younger yeah no i was younger i wouldn't i'm so i've wised up now i'm like no no to the scan it's you're kind of guilted i really think not even joking i'm trying to be funny i think most of those charities like they I've wised up now. I'm like, mm-mm. No, no. Get to the scam. You're kind of guilted into it. I really think, not even joking, I'm trying to be funny, I think most of those charities,
Starting point is 01:20:49 it really doesn't get to the right people. They're all money laundering. You're texting money to Ukraine. You're like, is it going to them, dude? I want to see the family that gets it. Can I see them get $5 for me? Can I see it? It's just some guy delivers it.
Starting point is 01:21:03 This is from Comedian Neighbor, I guess. They're getting bombed, and they're like, she's a getting bombed and they're like she's a fiver and they're like i guess all right like it's american doesn't work there and they're like hello this is for you this is for you and your family for me the platform shit is so true though i remember uh, not that anybody would really turn to us for commentary on a lot of stuff, but some people were like, you have a platform. It's your responsibility. Y'all did it with the Barstool funds, right? Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:21:34 But even before, George Floyd stuff and COVID stuff, and they were like, you have a responsibility. I was like, no, I don't. I have a responsibility for me, my kids, and my bills. That's what I use my platform for. They act like people are only watching this. So they think people are so dumb that they're like, I only watch Barstool. I don't see.
Starting point is 01:21:53 I don't even know what's going on outside of it. And so they're like, you should be the news. We should be like, it's sunny today if y'all would like to go outside. They're not. They have the news, dude. We're all watching it. The point of this is to be a break from that right and to be that route and you know what some of the people that are even
Starting point is 01:22:09 affected need that break as they're in it sure and so the point is to give that break i don't need to be watch the news like if you want to go find this stuff out even that it's like i don't wake up every day being like there are people out there who need a break from their lives and i'm gonna give it to them today yeah this is my job and i'm doing it that's what i do it to make money and have a good time i don't really i mean i don't want to be a dick but i don't really owe anybody anything i don't know you you know what i mean so why would you you owe the people that are that that are watching this yes you owe them to be true to what the reason that they came why it's all about the audience i think stuff gets lost about the audience and it should be the audience should be your first thought i'm about just because they're there and they're the reason
Starting point is 01:22:48 you get to do anything that you get to do right and so you cannot forget the audience and that's when when you do forget the audience you start making stuff for you or just other people like the audience ones being like you should you know you owe me or you should do this it's like they are already here they're here yeah so we're all good this whole thing is good you're like you're coming in and fucking up a good thing yeah yeah and again like why do you even want and go make changes if you like what i liked about y'all's barstool the was barstool funds like but it was like that was like they were calling called people dude like it's like everybody will support if i can see you know where the money went yes it went to that the guy that
Starting point is 01:23:25 owned the restaurant and then you're like oh this is great dude and no one's against that stuff at all yep it's like these kind of like just like off you tell people just saying stuff yeah it's like it doesn't feel real and you're like is the money going to this person like i don't even know if it is i want to make sure that they get it and then i'll help but otherwise we're all just saying like you know given i got a ukraine flag you're like i just wore this jacket again it's been on this jacket the whole time you're like i haven't been wearing it but i put it back on today just the jacket and i now have the ukraine flag and so with every barstool thing we've ever done is it's always been like find me the family of the child who died the firefighter who died like whatever and
Starting point is 01:24:06 we'll give it to them yeah because even some you know the red cross or some shit you've heard of it's like i just don't think it actually you don't know where i mean they're running like yeah and it's not like it doesn't start like it's a bad thing there's there's heart there and i do think this stuff you know saint jude's a good one like saint jude is an amazing hospital but it's a children's hospital that does stuff and they with the kids and you know the kids are there and you're seeing the tangible it's yeah it's very like you're like it is a place that's uh kansas city has a journal hospital nashville i mean these places are like it's big it's a big deal and you know that money is going to help those kids and you see what it actually does so that stuff is what you need to
Starting point is 01:24:43 do when it's some other stuff you're like it's yeah it's kind of up in the air and you see what it actually does. So that stuff is what you need to do. When it's some other stuff, you're like, yeah, it's kind of up in the air and you're like, I don't know. If I feel like I'm doing it on an iPad, I feel like if I'm doing it on an iPad or an iPhone, if I'm like texting it, this is just going into the air.
Starting point is 01:24:54 This is just, I feel like lighting this money on fire right now. I'm going to, yeah, you screenshot that you did it, send it out. You're basically just like, I'm just letting you know. There's like a fake,
Starting point is 01:25:03 they should do like the fake COVID cards. They should do the fake COVID cards. They should have a fake. You could still fake text screenshot. I did it. You just always be like, it's what you did. You want to post it on YouTube? You just want to post that you did it. I remember when the Barstool Fund really blew up and we were really in the thick of it.
Starting point is 01:25:17 And I say we. It was really more Dave saving everybody. And he was breaking it down simply. You guys give the money to us and we'll distribute it to the people that need it and a lot of the comments were like i think this is what taxes is supposed to be yeah yeah yeah a one central thing that gets money and distributes it yeah like this is probably how it should work more often but it gets a lot but what do i know yeah any of that so so what uh so back to vecchione that is um like you are producing it i produce indirect like what is that i don't know what i'm no one i don't i did it and i don't know if i know what i mean
Starting point is 01:25:52 but it's you know it's like just i was helping like just how we're going to set it up how the opening is going to be stand-up's pretty straightforward and then we had 800 pound gorilla is who i partnered with they do a lot of specials and so they know all what they're doing and so i was like you mean yeah yeah so they i had the help of like i mean they did every you know they do everything and it's like and then i but i wanted to do something so i can be behind it and then when you put your name on it it's like then i'm gonna be able to promote it and like i can go super hard because it's in so vecchione's a comic that he's not clean but what i do is clean and then he's always been so close that it's like well dude if you just don't curse like i'll like i'll now get way behind it
Starting point is 01:26:32 i'll be able to do it we should probably stop fucking cursing yeah we'll do whatever you want to go to i'm not against anything but it's like that's the world that i do that's our trade-off that mike is probably willing to take where it's like now i can it's like well now i can go to this audience that like i i i don't care why people you watch whatever i watch you guys you're like no one's against that but this audience is is just kind of like where they can you can watch with your kids you can watch with your grandmother you know you're not they're not going to be weird but it's it's not too like a lot of uh clean stuff that's made for an audience that's clean it's very like watered down or really put to this and i want to do this where it's like vec yon like look if you watch his old
Starting point is 01:27:09 stuff it's not gonna be clean but you're gonna get that level of a comedian just to clean it up and then he comes and does his thing and he's getting real caught like you're gonna this is a dude that learned in new york city with burr and natal and patrice and you're gonna get that high level of a comic and talking about real adults like he's not like we're talking about like uh you know like trains or something like but it's it's it's able to do it without trains was the first thing i don't know i think some kid that's what the kid comedy it's like we talk about trains a lot you know so you know chugga chugga yeah a lot of honking we do a horn stuff uh so it's it's it's going to be able to do this to
Starting point is 01:27:48 be like you know the people that come in to see my comedy or i get you know 10 year olds to grandparents come and like i like that i like that you're gonna be something for families to watch no one wants to watch you know like tv kind of divides couples i think now and i think a lot of tv is like you go yeah you go watch housewives i go watch narcos yeah we don't meet until we're done with our things or whatever it is we don't talk until we get we don't talk till we get dude i've said this before i think uh like the key to one of the big keys to like a healthy relationship trust and communication but like one of the tangible real ones is tv shows that you both like yeah because you do like yeah i don't want to have
Starting point is 01:28:24 to sit through. You either can separate, which that's not great, or I'm like, my eyeballs are bleeding while I'm watching some reality show that you love and I hate. Something in between
Starting point is 01:28:32 where we're all laughing and we're all enjoying it. Like, it's like, oh, wow, we actually enjoyed I mean, we grew up with that, with TGIF on Friday, you know, and with Urkel and all those shows. Like, those were big deals
Starting point is 01:28:43 and you sat there as a family and you watched the show and that was, the numbers were so big because it was like I mean just everybody was like I had to be home on Friday to go do this and that was a big deal it wasn't corny or bad wasn't corny it was bad like it was great Full House I mean you're watching Fuller House like I mean you're all watching these shows like I mean are everybody they're people go watch your friends again you're like well you can like I look at it as like being a stand-up version of friends or sign you're like well these were on tv dude like we're doing we're doing that like seinfeld's a very it's like adult topics they're adult topics but you're doing them you're like i'm just not saying the words
Starting point is 01:29:16 that a lot of people do say and i'm just trying to not i'm not saying them right and so that's it and hopefully i always like the people didn't know which we've talked about before on here like people don't know you're clean. You're like, that's the point. Yeah. It's not a clean comment. I don't care for you to be. You're either here.
Starting point is 01:29:30 Some people are there for us, clean. Some are not. It doesn't matter. I'm just trying to be fun. That probably makes the meet and greets and stuff a lot more fun and interesting. Yeah. It's not like. It's the same.
Starting point is 01:29:41 It's like the same person. You mean the same guy over and over? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. The same person where you have to grab onto and over. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Person where you want to be that thing. You want to be your audience too.
Starting point is 01:29:48 Like, I think that also hurts entertainers when they end up hating their audience. Yeah. That is, it's over then. Yeah. Because if you almost, they get so successful that they're almost like, they don't like seeing themselves and you're like, yo dude, that's you. You're, that's, who's coming to see you. So you need to be happy with who that's coming to see you and be proud of like yeah i'm you dude i would be out there too like and all that i like what you like
Starting point is 01:30:09 don't hate your aunt don't turn on them right because then you're miserable you're miserable they're miserable it's no good i i always love the idea of like clean comics or like as if there's like a somebody counting how many words you say you know this guy says it 100 times this guy says 75 times nate says it's zero times yeah it's like it's it's it's it's become that where stuff's like sectioned off and you want to like kind of be like no dude it can just be whatever like it's like you we can all do i think i'm not gonna make i think i can make the movie scream and like it can be as gory as they can show scream on tbs if they take the cursing out so you can make that movie it's not like people that want stuff clean is like they can't handle look at uh all the old they show die hard on tbs yeah like they're showing all the 90s that they show them they're classic
Starting point is 01:30:55 films and you can make it where you're like yeah dude i'm not gonna show you the inside of a body like that's just i won't do that i won't show like the literal guts fall like maybe they don't need all you know yeah you doesn't need to be so gory or so this is so it's like make it like a good movie that's exactly what my dad leaves so my dad always makes like a noise till he'll be like yeah he's getting locked out yeah it's like dude like i was like that's always my argument which you're kind of swaying me it's like like, dude, you just watched 30 guys get shot, but the one guy's stomach is what bothers you? That's too much.
Starting point is 01:31:27 That's too much. You're like, I can go along. I don't need to see. It doesn't need to be real to me. You almost don't want it to be too real. I don't need to watch a man feel like he died and I watched his eyes go. Dude, I was watching Sicario last yesterday. I was watching Sicario for like three days.
Starting point is 01:31:44 I'm a big fan of Sicario, but I say all this giant scar effect like i mean yeah that's unbelievable taylor sheridan's just fucking tops yeah um but it was that it actually wasn't a gory scene it was a scene where john berenthal's choking emily blunt yeah emily blunt yeah and i was like this is too real yeah it's very like they're just such just such great actors yeah it's like oh my god this is yeah that whole movie makes me feel like oh i'm so happy i'm just like living a little bubble that's yeah yeah that's you can go back and watch and you can be like i'll just 10 second forward that part like you're like but then you get to the other part of it you're like yeah there's uh yeah that stuff needs to be made and that stuff is great and then there's another side that i think can be made too and you know that's what i want to try to do with what we're doing and we did with
Starting point is 01:32:27 vecchione special it's going to be unbelievable you're going to like co-sign other guys yeah i think we might do with someone else and then uh yeah yeah we're starting like i kind of started with the nate land like uh you know talking about getting these podcast stuff like hopefully maybe to eventually start a network and like do this. Like our podcast is clean and we just talk about whatever. But it's, you know, just the world that I can build. And like you just, I mean, no different than what y'all have created. And you just build your own little world. And you just go, this is what we're doing.
Starting point is 01:32:55 And if people hopefully want to see it and if they don't, it's fine. Like, you know, you build that world where you're like, you don't have to say if you don't like something, just don't watch it. You would think that we live in a world where that's primarily exclusively what people like yeah yeah telling you that they don't like something or don't want to watch something yeah yeah thanks we are the the kings of getting backhanded compliments that are like always kind of like that like yeah man i don't really like that other show you do but this one's pretty good yeah yeah you just didn't even say that yeah you could have just said you have a place for it and like you know i was like that like reddit i was looking oh i know but don't do that but you think like well reddit's the place where you can go do that
Starting point is 01:33:33 and i shouldn't be involved and like you're like i don't need to watch like i don't he has the best mantra i've ever heard people you read your comments read your dms and he always goes that's none of my business yeah comments about me is not my business that's your it's your business great it's something i very very very strongly avoid that's for them and but you we said two things just there that the first thing made me go up and get my phone to remind me of something and then we came back and we said reddit i was wondering what nate thinks about the tunnel on reddit okay the what there was there was it's a 9-11 thing yeah oh yeah is it yeah oh there's a tunnel they all made it out safe they live under the buildings yeah that's crazy there was this thing that went viral today on on from reddit and um
Starting point is 01:34:22 it's a question right the title is how can i get my boyfriend to stop digging this tunnel and here's the it's two paragraphs bear with me i don't read so well so i know this is a weird question but my boyfriend likes to spend a lot of his free time digging a tunnel on some property that he just inherited i haven't seen the full extent of it but last i saw it was remarkably deep under the surface he spent roughly a year on it and it's evident the front of this thing is deep wide well put together at the front there is only the only which is the only part i've seen he's got cement beams electric lights even chairs in a small table i haven't gone into it but it looked like the quality severely dropped as the tunnel went
Starting point is 01:34:59 further mostly becoming open dirt with some wood beams holding it up my biggest concern is the safety i'm really worried that he's going to dig too deep and it'll collapse on him or something. I've tried voicing this concern to him, but he just laughs it off and assures me that he'll be fine. Aside from safety concerns, there's also the fact that he doesn't really have a social life because of this thing. I'm pretty much the only person he still talks to outside of his job, and he doesn't go out and do anything anymore. It used to be that he'd occasionally head out and do some digging on the weekends, but now he spends almost all of his free time out there. He still comes home, but he barely spends any time with me,
Starting point is 01:35:33 and I know that he isn't doing anything but digging the damn hole in the ground. This can't be good for his mental health, but I don't know how to convince him to stop. He's always really happy when he comes back from digging, which is why I haven't seriously tried to stop him before, but I was talking to a friend about him, and she told me he might be going crazy. going crazy obviously i don't think he's insane but i hadn't considered the mental health aspect of this and i just don't know what to do so he's like a dad from the 50s like it's like that's what you do before tv so it's a guy that's just like maybe has a flip phone and like wants to i let him dig it let him dig the hole you want to wake that up it's a man that knows how to dig a hole you want to stop that process this is a guy that's already wrapped his head
Starting point is 01:36:08 around what could happen and why he needs a tunnel and then you want to be let's stop digging this tunnel then you're going to end up in the like what the tunnel is there so either let it happen and you have a safe tunnel to go to or you're going to be a part of the tunnel you're like you're just like they rub out your face when the whole thing starts to sit down there yeah yeah yeah you're like yeah like uh harrison ford or hans solo you're just that and you're like oh yeah you're like that's the founder of the tunnel and then the new people are like oh they're like touching it and you're like first lady yeah you're practically one step step away from the most powerful person in the tunnel. This might work out great.
Starting point is 01:36:50 No, I mean, he's definitely going to die. I'm not against a guy having a tunnel. The older you get, the more you're like, all right, I'm listening. I'm like way up. You start thinking about buying land somewhere and you just think the world's going to collapse. I'm on the edge of it where you're going like, well, how did he get? I'd like to see it.
Starting point is 01:37:10 Does it go somewhere? I'd be more at where is it going? Like, is there an end goal? I actually, the second time around, he said this is some land he inherited. Yeah. Maybe there is something on that land or some shit. But the old grandpa Jones told me about in their land, there's fucking, there's gold is something on that land or some shit but the old grandpa jones told me about
Starting point is 01:37:25 in in their land there's fucking there's gold in them hills they talk about world war three and nukes and all that stuff like you're it i mean what's the difference of like a guy having a bomb shelter like you know it's like he could be doing like snowpiercer it would be like just maybe maybe she should give him some guidance to go where so where do we go to do with this like where's the like let him tell you the end goal yeah yeah are go, so where are we going to do with this? Like, let him tell you the end goal. Yeah, yeah. Are we, where are you going? Like, are you going to be, and it's getting, you're getting a little bit looser towards the end where you're like, you're getting tired out.
Starting point is 01:37:54 So, like, let's make it something. And then it could be, you know. I mean, I've seen Peaky Blinders. I know what happens to the tunnel diggers. Yeah, yeah. Almost all die. It doesn't usually go well. And the amateurs are probably going to be even worse. An amateur tunnel diggers. Yeah, yeah. Almost all dive. It doesn't actually go well. And the amateurs
Starting point is 01:38:05 are probably going to be even worse. An amateur tunnel digger. But if he's searching for gold, he's just going about it. The wrong way. Completely wrong way. But unless,
Starting point is 01:38:13 that's what I mean. I don't think he's going gold. Maybe it's like a treasure. I think he's digging a tunnel. Yeah, I think he's doing what he's doing. Like, he's not like, I mean, if he found gold,
Starting point is 01:38:24 he'd be like, yeah, man, that was great. I definitely wasn't going for gold. Get this gold out of my way so I can dig in the tunnel. It's all about the tunnel. She needs to ask where the end goal is. She needs to be like, what is the end plan with this? It might be something what I want it to be, which is...
Starting point is 01:38:40 Well, it's just to be like if something happens and you got to go underground and you got this tunnel that no one would even see and you're safe under here is your place getting aerated because you got so much other stuff that your wife's furious about like he's got like a attic that's like just like who knows what's up there and he's like we need we're the only family that probably needs this tunnel and it's us and uh so i i would like you gotta let it i'd let i'm i'm fine with it. I get it too being like therapeutic. Like there's a little, like he goes and just minds his own business and he digs it.
Starting point is 01:39:14 You know, some of you, you ever done Legos, the smaller version? But Legos, you start doing them and you're like. The success of it. Yeah, it's like, you're like, this is nice. And it's a different version of that. It's also a nice workout, right? Great workout. You got to shred it. A nice, a nice.
Starting point is 01:39:25 White as a ghost, a nice. White as a ghost, but shredded. Like there's no, no vitamin D. Like, I mean. He looks like one of those guys in Mad Max. Yeah. He's just like, yeah. Ripped up. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:39:34 Yeah. The first time I ever had, had that, that, you know, you said 50s husband. Yeah. I, my, the first house I bought used to flood in the basement every time. I mean, there was a sprinkle and this shit would flood. One time it was particularly bad and I remember
Starting point is 01:39:53 I had a big squeegee and I was just pushing the water into the sump pump in the ground. I just popped some headphones in and I was just squeegeeing for hours. I was like like this is so much better than what's going on up there right now the chaos up there this is easy i get there's a goal i know how to do it i was just like and then as i'm doing i'm thinking of like my dad shoveling or
Starting point is 01:40:15 pushing a lawnmower when i'm like oh i get it you just want your little yeah this is not really that's what he wants going on yeah here it's about what's not going on yeah it's the goal is he's got to have there's got to be some like plan yeah if he keeps digging then it is like something's 20 something i don't think there was an age on that if your kids dig it he's 20 no there's no she's like my boyfriend yeah so that's great yeah well i mean yeah that's good to see what like he's showing our car too he's thinking tunnel yeah what's your boyfriend he's a doctor what about yours investment beggars i he takes it for fun way more interesting calling stuff you went right to calling stuff with the doctor what we were saying earlier that there are there are so few professions that you can say
Starting point is 01:41:00 like i had a calling for it yeah and people were like that's okay yeah like it's like basically we said the priesthood and and soldiers are basically i would say digging a tunnel that's what i said what if you just had a calling for it that's a definitely that never ends there's someone there's a voice that's telling him to keep going and he's and he says like feel the dreams man yeah and just dig it the tunnel will be there that's also concerning why she said she's like obviously i don't think he's going insane. It's like, well, that's not even below the top three reasons you could just walk down there with a lantern. Honey.
Starting point is 01:41:31 A little parakeet. Hey, it is. Wait. Yeah, he got a little farther, didn't he? Like, he just comes in, you can see at night now. Like, he could just, like, he's like an owl. Like, he just, he doesn't need a light. He sees the light.

We told them. We told them all. We told them all. Then I told you. I told you money wouldn't matter in the new world. We ran into Soder
Starting point is 01:43:42 a couple nights ago. He told us the funniest story because so john wasn't drinking that night and dan has not been drinking anymore and they both of them ended up housing o'douls they got buckets of o'douls he drank like 10 o'douls yeah and because you know like when you're drinking you're getting drunk so you can drink hundreds of ounces of something yeah when you're not he was just like i just got a belly full of non-alcoholic beer. By the end of the night, I had to lean to a certain way because my stomach was bloated. I was standing at the bar like this because it was uncomfortable any other way. So as Dan got so excited, he's like, I'll do some M&A's with you.
Starting point is 01:44:20 Let's go. So anyway, they're drinking the non-alcoholic beer. This is the attic in Dan. What is that? Is that almost like kind of beer? I'll take it mayonnaise with you. Let's go. So anyway, they're drinking the non-alcohol. This is the attic in Dan. What is that? Is that almost? Is that almost like kind of beer? I'll take it. Give me that.
Starting point is 01:44:29 Give me that. I'll take it. I'll take it. Dude, 40 of them will be like, I think it's supposed to be just a minute-long thing you kind of do and sit it down empty. You're not supposed to pound them, dude. He's doing like shotgun. Bro, this was Shane's exact answer.
Starting point is 01:44:46 We told Gillis, and he was like, so this is the most alcoholic story I've ever heard in my life. Like, it was slamming O'Doul's. You think they're still open, dude? You think you can go get some? You're like, yeah, man, I think a child will sell them to you. It's not. It's what are you talking about? He told us, though, that he had once devised a plan.
Starting point is 01:45:07 I don't know if you were involved in it, but he said he was going to come out of retirement. He said he wanted to get the Ocean's Eleven team together of drinkers. Yeah. But within two seconds, he had himself drinking three beers ahead of time. He told me the plan. Yeah. And so he tells me, and he goes, I just want one time going back. And like i don't drink anymore and so there's a lot of us that don't drink anymore and so he's like all of us would go back he said we do the creek in the cave in new york and when it was
Starting point is 01:45:33 still in new york she's in austin now and then uh he said we'll go back there and i was like yeah that would be great right and he's like yeah he goes i would probably do third i would start thursday because i don't want to just like saturday like it's i don't want want to like warm up too so because i would do thursday you know if i have a couple beers nothing big then friday i'll come in i have a few more maybe a couple shots just so i get prepared for saturday i was like yeah dude this is why you have a problem like this is a made-up scenario and you've already built in days that is like coming into this so this this is sunday morning a few mimosas to work it off yeah he goes you know the next day a little hair of the dog like you gotta do that and then i'll start smoking again to get back off the booze and uh you go well this is yours is a nightmare now you made it a whole
Starting point is 01:46:15 thing he had last night we have because i don't drink so we have nas at the uh and our tour bus and uh i mean i went back in the bus like at the end of the night like i always have like after my shows i have uh now this is your old man i've had a halo top and one to two nas and uh and so i'll i go back in there let's say i'm like they're all gone and soda drink i mean like a 12 pack i'm like soda what are you doing dude like i go specifically designed to be like a a placeholder. So when you're out, you don't feel awkward. You can kind of sip on it. Yeah, it's nice.
Starting point is 01:46:49 You're part of the crew. You just feel like, yeah, it's after a show. And you're in here like, it's like 12 bud, like ice, N-A. Like N-A's are always like weird, you know. I was doing the math on it. Dry heat, bud, dry heat. You're like, there's no alcohol in it. You know, but the can's a little different. And you're like, could no there's no alcohol in it you know but a little extra can's a little different and you're like could y'all make it look a little more
Starting point is 01:47:08 a little everybody's always like what's that let's just say i can drive home tonight all right and i'm fine no we did that we did the math i did the math and it's like i drank like like honestly something like 250 200 250 completely empty calories that yeah but you feel how good you feel the next day uh that's what you got to remember yeah that's true i felt good you have no headache yeah no that's what it ends up coming to when you the older you will get you end up seeing like, all right, I put up. Hannibal Buress told me this when we first started drinking.
Starting point is 01:47:49 He goes, I put up some good numbers. It's like a career. It's like a jersey's in the rafters. It's like a career. I did it. Yeah. I did. When someone's like, oh, you're not drinking.
Starting point is 01:47:56 You're like, I did all that you are doing now and that you think I didn't do. I did it all and maybe more. Yes. And so I did it. I don't need to do anymore i every day you wake up is awesome you know last night i didn't get a ton of sleep but i'm not i'm not here like just miserable like minute like it's like it's just no you actually chase dreams actually like when you're like when you're drinking you have one dream and you can only
Starting point is 01:48:21 go after that one dream there can't be another someone's like what about this you're like i can't do that's too much man i mean how much i'm barely making this one and then you're as you get then you're otherwise you're like yeah maybe i will try it i have time now i'm not you know i'm gonna go dig a tunnel i'm gonna go you go dig a tunnel i mean can you imagine being that guy can't drink no that guy you're not gonna cheat on you digging a tunnel all over it got to be the worst fucking thing i've ever heard in my life i mean can't even imagine you know it's cold though cold down there and you're like you know the the a huge thing for me uh slowing down i'm not like totally off it but i i mean basically am uh once i had kids taking care of kids hungover
Starting point is 01:49:01 no they don't care they don't understand yeah they don't understand and there there is no amount of fun there is no party there is no appearance or person or concert or something that is worth the next day when like a 12 month old is just like play with me keep me alive yeah your one-year-old could knock on the door and say all that stuff you should have done a higher age than that you're like you're 12 months old here you go yeah she pulls up in the car she backs the car out i'm like good gosh she's two and so but yeah when the kids they they it's it makes it you just don't want to be miserable and it's not feeling miserable because it just starts the older you get it it hurts i mean again
Starting point is 01:49:43 it gets real it gets awful i mean gets real, dude. It gets awful. I mean, it's just not worth it. It's like a risk. Yeah. This was, that's fun, but it's not as much fun as that is bad. I remember a guy when I lived in New York, when we lived in New York, you know, you live in a town, like a townhome that's three apartments or something kind of. And so the basement below us was this construction worker.
Starting point is 01:50:01 And I mean, so you can hear every, I mean, you're in a house. You're in a house, but you're three different families different families you hear everybody right and then we would hear him i'd hear him uh he'd come home so drunk at like two three in the morning and then i would hear him at 6 a.m and just like like put his finger down so you should be like and now you just hear it it just comes up like through the wall and you just hear this guy's misery he's doing it every night and you're just sitting there like oh my gosh like it's a guy that oh he was at that point older than me i mean i was still drinking at this point but it's like you're like is that what it become it just becomes that right and you got to go do it and that's the life that you have and you have no there's no way like you just your life is kind of miserable until you can
Starting point is 01:50:44 get it pounded away with enough alcohol to, like, kind of then move on. He came accidentally bulimic. He's got, like, the, what do they say with bulimic? The teeth start rotting. You get the enamel off the teeth. Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah. You feel like you're bulimic?
Starting point is 01:50:54 Probably like, no, I'm not. No. It's crazy. I wish. I wish. It's not enough for people, you know? Like, you got to have a rock bottom moment, usually. And that should be it.
Starting point is 01:51:02 Well, your rock, yeah. Your rock bottom might not be where you think it's going to be. Because it's like, you can think it's going to be because it's like you can think it's gonna be one thing i locked myself out of home my hotel room naked once so that wasn't rock bottom i kept going after that you think that would be it it's always you just end up it's how you feel you just end up being like i can't do this it's eating it's like i'm learning with eating now like i you know it's like i still want to eat this stuff and then you're like you're a great reformed eater because i know me and you used to eat the same i can still do it i just don't know how to do it like you do it i still yeah i mean but i like you know i went the other day i had i went to mcdonald's i'm gonna add number one little side flare fish
Starting point is 01:51:38 i was doing side cheeseburger i was doing side cheeseburger, a side McChicken for a while. McChicken was its own meal at one point in the heyday, and now it's just pushed off to the 99 cent menu. There's a little more respect than I think. McChicken was a solid sandwich. It is a solid sandwich. I love that where it is, right?
Starting point is 01:51:59 It's almost like a Latin ball. I'll take a couple of McChickens, throw them in. I'm not against that. But I started going a little flight you know uh i started going a little fish now side little side slow fish just they need the menu fillet fish i've only had it once and it was like it was like someone who was a huge flatfish person was like you have to have it i'm like there's like no way it's disgusting like you have to have it no way it's disgusting you have to all right i'm very easily persuaded like literally within three times yeah i was like all right all right fine give it to me i got it i pretended it was bad it's good pretty good sandwich yeah yeah if you don't if they if it's not fresh it can be bad yeah but it's uh but you
Starting point is 01:52:40 still get through it you'll be fine it's not fight through it. Yes, a little more tartar. Can I get a little more tartar on this? Do they tell you what kind of fish? Or they're like, don't worry about it. I've never asked anybody what kind of fish anything is ever in my life. I've never been to a nice restaurant and asked what kind of fish. I don't. Like, what am I, talking to these people about?
Starting point is 01:52:58 I know what it is. Know what you're doing. I'm in my car. They're handing you food. And you think, excuse me. Is this Atlantic or Pacific? I actually do think I read I think I relatively recently read this.
Starting point is 01:53:11 I think it just says like fillet of It's North Atlantic cod. I mean this fish was killed years ago. This fish has been dead for years. It's not like it's not one you're like is it his family's still alive like no his family's been his family's family's dead like this is light years this guy
Starting point is 01:53:30 this guy never stood a chance you know i don't ever like to stand on because one i've been on a kick a little bit of um i do uh i do the tuna fish from subway oh i do it i do a tuna fish from Subway. Oh, yeah. I do a tuna. I do tuna. I don't know. You had a day. You had a day. I do it. It's not regularly, but whenever I go to Subway, I get the tuna. And that only started after they announced that a study showed that they don't know what's in the tuna.
Starting point is 01:53:57 They say it's not tuna. It's not. There's no trace of tuna. That's when he just started eating it. And I was like, let's figure out what it is. Let's try it. i got it we're actually going to stephano's house and i got the the tuna tuna melt with extra mayo and then puked into stephano's backyard oh really yeah it wasn't good i've never puked at a festival you gotta be able to handle it well you know you gotta be built for that it
Starting point is 01:54:21 was showing me he hasn't saw it yeah i got a real weak... He puked at the bar. Oh, there's another Soder story. Oh, you were kind of involved in this. It was when Joe List shit in a girl's shoe. Yeah. Oh, yeah. He told that story, and he puked at the bar. I almost got kicked out of Kid Rock's bar sober.
Starting point is 01:54:37 Yeah. It's a story, don't worry. Like, you're puking at a trash can. Like, yeah, I've had six old duels, and I just heard a gross story. What do you want to do? You can't handle it. Dan told us that you called him, like, in hysterics. I'm like, yeah, I've had six old duels and I just heard a gross. What do you want to do? You can't handle it. You call them like in hysterics. Like you just got to talk to Joe.
Starting point is 01:54:49 You got to get this story. We've been talking about the logistics of that. And like, how does that occur? It was, does he do it on purpose? Was it?
Starting point is 01:54:57 No, no, no, he didn't know. It almost feels like it does. It was, it was, he did it and he was very drunkly.
Starting point is 01:55:03 He went to the bathroom and he did it a lot of places. So it was it was gonna he did it and he was very drunkly went to the bathroom and he did it a lot of places so it was everywhere so it's kind of a lottery that it hit his shoe like it's it also hit my you know my makeup bag but he goes it's my favorite like he had to go so we go out everybody's drinking that night so i have a joke from that night i tell my story about uh my wife i was like texting her i was like oh i'll call you later i don't talk to her for like 12 hours i text her at 6 a.m i'm like uh like i said like i am home or something and so i had to joke about my text
Starting point is 01:55:35 with her because she got furious at me that night she's here obviously but she but she got mad that i was yeah she choked to death and uh but she uh she got mad at like because you know obviously i don't i disappear for 12 hours and we go out we're drinking one point where we go to this bar down in the east village and joe goes leaves to go home at one point and we're like all right man we're seeing these droves joe lists really drunk and then hour and a half he's just back at the bar just sitting in the seat and we're like what are you doing he goes what and he goes i was just hanging out man you're like yeah but you like left like we like i like we we kind of walked you out you left he goes uh he goes here and just kept drinking and you're like all right well joe's back so he goes these girls he goes to these girls so he goes to these girls house and uh and they they worked at
Starting point is 01:56:28 caroline's the comedy club and they were very nice they just moved to new york and they uh and you know it's like he just goes there he's drunk i mean just passes out whatever and then uh they get up and they go to work they have to go to work they have real because they're real people they're human and yeah and so joe wakes up and he's got to be he's got a flight to seattle that day and the trip he's going to the seattle comedy fest where he'll be gone one month so you know for a month you got to like pack for a month so he wakes up i'd probably stay home that night yeah for a month long excursion yeah yeah yeah but yeah he wakes up and like he calls me he's on the way to the airport. So he woke up and immediately he just realized that he took a dump in these girls.
Starting point is 01:57:08 She like, so he tries to clean up the best he can. And then he runs, he goes, packs a backpack worth of clothes for one month. Doesn't get a shower or anything. I mean, he's got stuff on his legs. So he gets there and then he misses his flight. And so they get him on another flight. So now he's got to fly to Boston, my God. So he gets there, and then he misses his flight. And so they get him on another flight. So now he's got to fly to Boston, then Seattle. So I loved it because it basically felt like he had to go backwards and then the farthest.
Starting point is 01:57:32 It was almost they were like, we're going to make you have to go a little bit farther. You get it, right? You get it, yeah. You got to tone a bit. So he has to sit down in, like, the middle. He's just doing this, so he can't talk to these girls. He calls them and said, I don't know what to say. I'm so sorry.
Starting point is 01:57:44 And they're like, don't. It happens. And I think they thought he thought he just like peed on the floor or something and they're like they just got out of college they're like yeah we get it dude it happens so he lands and when he lands he calls and tells me all this story i'm oh like it's my fate like i i weirdly like when something goes really wrong for someone and when bad things happen and so i'm like losing my mind that this is i'm laughing so hard and uh so he lands and he's got a message from those girls and the message is it's way worse than we thought and like he ruined the shoes it was everywhere it was like not good so like these these women they their life is different now like they're whatever
Starting point is 01:58:26 journey they might have been on they're on another road now like they're it's a road that's like kind of half lit and not like they had a nice road that was like paved and now they're like i don't think it's like i don't know if you're ever going to make it back to the road that you were on it's kind of hard after you see something like this and once you've cleaned up yeah once you think yeah from a god that you don't really know that well you know what i mean like you come back home you're like i've seen some things you've seen so i can't unsee this i can't you can't you can't like that you know and so uh you have to go work with a homeless after this like you're getting work in an office building you're like i gotta get out i gotta begin to be boxed down and so he calls him, and then he, remember, he calls me, he wrote them, he had to
Starting point is 01:59:06 send them money, and he gave them, he sent them cash, he wrote a card, because he was gone for a month, so he wasn't going to see them, and I saw him first, I went to Caroline's, I was like, let me just go, and like, let me like, fill it out for you, because they were all there, and I was like, I'll get it calmed down, and so I'll go in and see them. Right when I go in there, I'm walking down Caroline's steps. She goes down, and I see them, and I go, huh? Huh? Our boy Joe. How about him?
Starting point is 01:59:31 How about him? I'm just trying to be as charming as I can be to make it as fun of a bad situation this can possibly be. And then he goes, and he does it, and then he sent them, wrote a check i wrote him a card said i'm so sorry i don't even know what to say signed it uncle joe which is very funny uh and sent him 300 cash and he goes he asked me he goes is that enough i go i don't think you could have ever sent him out that would be too much if you sent him two grand i think there are 10 grand that's okay whatever a million dollars you just said it ruined their lives it ruined their life no dollar amount there's not amount don't worry about too much there's only not enough there's not too much there's not enough absolutely unreal man all right i know you got your show so we won't keep you any
