Hello and welcome to Kump.
Coming to you a lot, not live, but from New York City, the epicenter of the epidemic.
My throat's a bit scratchy, I'm a bit clammy.
but I don't think I have COVID.
I have not left my house in a month.
I don't know.
I am joined today by a very special guest,
the illustrious, the magnanimous,
the benevolent,
the charitable,
the giver of life to nurses.
He gives life to the people who give life.
Welcome to the show, Tim Dillon.
I imagine there will be an award.
I don't want to be presumptuous,
but I imagine there will be some type of award
for the fact that I bought lunch from pasta pomadaro in Jersey
and had them deliver it to the doctors and nurses there.
Let's be honest.
I mean, the doctors, maybe not, but the nurses,
the best meal they probably ever had in their life.
Yeah, it's also funny because, like,
I just imagine a bunch of fat, sluggish nurses
full of like chicken parm, Penny Alavacca.
You just load them up with chicken.
It just carved them up, for ready to take a nap.
you're like passing out
you know someone's grandma's dead because you
fucking gave him too many breadsticks
yeah I just imagine like the guy
who's running the floor is like enough what the chicken
front has people are dying
do you think people are fucking dying
you think people oh no I guess it takes away your sense of
smell which is the only saving because I think it would be
hilarious for people to be dying and going like
what are you having a fucking
a Kinsenier or not Kinsenia where the Italians have
a Tarantella
who knows
be funny just like just smelling chicken franchise
and just coughing
hitting the button
Yeah, people keep saying
it takes away your sense of smell
But doesn't every sickness
Like doesn't every sickness
When you're really sick
Do you ever taste like you used to
Like, you know
When you're really sick with something, man
You don't want to eat
Well, you know
It's not the taste buds usually
It's the vomiting and the shitting
But yeah, I hear you
Um
You know
What, uh, did you make the menu
Or did you just tell them like get them something nice
How did that go?
I called up, I said listen
I got 100 people
people, what are we doing?
And she goes, how about Panaylovak?
I said, great.
She goes, what about chicken parm?
I said, phenomenal.
Right.
I said, let's do some vegetarian.
How about eggplant parm?
She goes, great.
She goes, we should probably do one more.
I'm like, how about a pasta?
They upsold you?
And then she goes, no.
Well, yeah, she goes, 100 people.
Yeah.
So she goes, she goes, each tray fees like around 25.
So she goes, let's do a pasta primaver is very popular.
I said, that sounds great, you know?
She got in the, I mean, honestly, these people, they deserve the timpaw.
Was it a timpana?
You couldn't have gotten them a nice timpana?
Oh, yeah, yeah, from Big Night.
Yeah, the special dish from Big Night.
What a great allegory Big Night is for so many things in the world, you know?
Like the little shitty restaurant that has a great chef that wants to make really good food.
And then the, you know, the big just bucket of tomato sauce that does well.
like, you know, a few blocks away.
And it's impossible to feel bad for the failing restaurant,
which is why I love the movie so much.
Because, like, even though you want to succeed,
you know why they won't.
Right.
And you also, it's just so interesting.
You know, it's a good movie.
It's actually a good movie that people should see if they haven't seen it.
No, Big Night.
Big Night's great.
Yeah.
What's the other one?
The guy.
Isabel Rosalini, right?
Is Bella Rosalini?
It's great.
Tony Shalub.
Phenominal.
Yeah, Stanley Tucci, right, or am I wrong?
Stanley Tucci, is Stanley Tucci and Tony Shaluba brothers in the movie?
Yes, so many people forget how many of these guys got their start in 90s TV.
You know, it's very interesting.
Stanley Tucci was on a show called Murder 1, which ran for two seasons on ABC.
The first season, it was just bald.
It was the first season, it was clearly like they were trying to, like, capture the energy like the O.J. Simpson trial
because they had one trial last the whole season, and it was this guy.
This bald lawyer named Teddy, and it was this actor, this big bald guy.
And then the next season, that Anthony La Polly had, they had, like, multiple trials, and it just failed.
That guy is, yeah.
Yeah, which guy?
Andy La Paglia.
He's, first of all, he's like a photo copy of someone else.
He's like the second, like, I can't place who.
But they tried to shove him into everything.
He's like the poor man's, like, Alec Baldwin or something.
Yeah, that's exactly what he had.
It's a great way to say.
He was the poor man's Alec Baldwin.
He tried the murder one.
The great thing about Teddy was he was like, the guy that played him, Daniel, but I think he's almost like Benghazi.
I forget what his name is.
But like, he was mysterious.
He was a good actor, you know.
And it was a, you know, 90s deed.
And Stanley Tucci was in Murder One.
It was funny.
Like, I think he might have, like, he might have had a role in NYPD Blue, too.
Like, he might have done, like, a lot of these guys had guest starring roles.
Oh, they jump around, yeah.
I mean, you know, Fraser, who's in the Pentagon War.
which not a bigger film,
but it was a great film.
Did you see the Pentagon Wars?
A lot of people...
Yeah, what did you say?
The Pentagon Wars,
it was an HBO film about the,
basically the Pentagon corruption
and they were trying to build the Bradley fighting vehicle
and just the amount of like red pork
and just like ineptitude and corruption,
which was also a great allegory for this pandemic
just because, you know, like it's...
Yeah.
Every fucking contract that's, you know,
probably being made right now is just, you know,
let's sit on it for a week
and make them really, and like bid it up.
Let's bid it up.
Yeah, you know, I have not seen that, but it is certainly interesting because, like, everybody that's, you know, when the government hands out money, you know, everybody's going to line up, you know, every business is going to line up.
I just thought it was so funny the other day, like, businesses trying to make themselves seem essential that clearly aren't, you know.
Look at the my pillow guy
And the fucking
And who's making masks
Fucking,
uh
They're fucking Joanne
Do you see Joanne
When they announce that everyone should wear a mask in public
I just love the guy from jockey
Underwear got up there
He was like we've been making underwear for this country for a long time
Like stick to the fucking
What is that to do with anything?
People love our panties
Yeah
You know
You put your cock in something nice
Make you feel good
You might bail us out Trump
Yeah, I mean, it really is how America would end
Where it's like the CEO of Buffalo Wildlings
You know
It would be so great
It was like it's like because like our French Revolution
Or equivalent would not be like
People being like accounted for their like their sins against the people
It would just be like there'd be a public dole
They'd be announced
And there's all these fucking Yahoo like CEOs would be like
Well here's where I should get a cut
It's just like it's like who's getting a cut
The fucking tax money or whatever
stimulus oh yeah dude i mean everybody's at the trough and why not did you see this pentagon guy
despite i think i think like a general whoever but like he was a press conference at the white
house i think and uh they're questioning why are you like giving these supplies that are
companies emergency supplies you're giving them to private companies and he's just going
look these people have supply chains they have warehouses you know i'm not trying to disrupt
supply chains here but so clearly like because he's probably not that corrupt this guy so it's just
so funny to watch like career.
Not that I'm like, you know, no one's crying for the generals.
But this is kind of funny to see, like, because you're a good soldier.
He's got, you know, play the line.
So it's just so funny to see him have to like kind of a account for someone else's
corruption and like justify it.
Right.
Yeah.
I mean, I kind of don't, you know, I'm not watching the news conferences as much as I was.
In the beginning, I was watching it every day.
And then you quickly, you quickly, like they, like, comedically,
like they exhaust their potentially after a while
because like you've just seen it
you've seen it you kind of made all the jokes
you can make about it
and then you start realizing that there's no news
coming out of these things
you know what I mean?
Like there's no actionable news
so you just kind of sit back
and you're like hey let me know
when we're going in camps
or let me know when we got a vaccine
like that's kind of where I'm at now
where I'm like I'm at the point of the quarantine
where I'm like, if it gets much better or much worse, I'm sure I'll know.
But other than that, it's like there's 90 million articles now that are just all of these
models and projections and predictions.
And it's like, yeah, none of that has any value to me or most people.
They're making us everyone wearing masks or asking everyone that wear masks.
And so Joanne, you know, Joanne's fabrics, that store where you go to buy like, you know.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Goet and fabric, yeah.
So they announced they were donating or like the materials to make masks to the hospitals with like, you know, kits like to show you how to make them.
And then someone like some employee leaks, they just get this stuff is all coming out of the clearance bin.
This is this is real shit.
It's just like, I hope you had like Joe Ann's just like donating their trash.
Oh, like, hey, why don't you use this in the hospital?
I mean, we're such a, you know what's interesting.
about, you know, this country in the, like, in the position that we're in right now
is that it's kind of hilarious that, like, you know, we weren't even in a recession
before this, like, things were so good before this.
Right.
That, like, even with 9-11, like, we're on an economic downturn, like, things were obviously
9-11 was a paradigm shift, but, like, you know, there's something interesting about the idea
We were, like, riding the highest we've ever been.
Now we're heading to the lowest we've ever been.
And it was, like, almost overnight.
It was, like, one week.
Well, to be fair, I mean, like, look, see, in 06, 07, oh, like, before the 08 crash, you know, people were able to, like, refinance their houses.
And, like, there was tons of, like, opportunity.
Like, the wealth was shared on that.
And, like, there was tons of people, like, you know, builders, contractors.
Everyone's getting refis, people buying, you know, and, you know, and, like, there was tons of people buying, you know,
using that money to like do where that you know go on vacation in addition to you know whatever
in this one it's purely it really was just a pure stock inflation boom it really wasn't
the economy was completely fucked but a lot of people were holding I mean ever since I don't know
the veracity of all this but they've been saying since since the 08 crash like most of these
people you know are holding two or three jobs for the job they had before you I mean they didn't
make the same amount of money we know that you know that you know
know that.
Economists know that.
People that follow things know that.
I'm talking about like on Main Street,
just the attitude that like things were so good.
Not for everyone.
And I don't, you know,
obviously there's no health care and they're rotted out,
but it was never anything.
You know what I mean?
Like, there was never any of that.
So like, just cash on hand.
You work a shift at a restaurant.
You walk out with 300 bones.
like that coming to zero like the job they don't exist like jobs literally vaporize like they don't
exist anymore like oh you worked in a resort it doesn't exist you worked on a cruise line it's criminal
now like it's just oh just from the highest like from just things are good to things are it's like
beyond bad they're like over and no one knows when they're going back to happen
It's just a weird psychological.
Like I talk to people that still feel kind of in shock.
Like people feel, like people have this weird attitude
where they're like kind of like what happened.
It's like you really just got stunned.
Like you fell off your bike, you got hit, you don't know what I was.
People still aren't processing what's happened.
Well, look, I'm a relatively informed.
I don't read the news as much as I should per se.
But I'm a reasonably informed guy.
People don't think I'm an idiot.
And even up until, like, a week or two before, I knew about the virus.
I just heard about it.
I skim some articles.
But, you know, we, I was on the podcast saying, like, look, I'm not, like, telling people not to worry, but, like, stop panicking.
And, you know, I'm never going to, you know, I'll be getting murdered.
Lucy will be fucking, you know, be shot in front of me.
I'm like, don't panic.
It's going to be fine.
I just, I don't like to panic, per se.
But it really, it came out of nowhere, even if you kind of were looking at it.
I mean, maybe, I don't know if it should have.
Of course, dude.
I mean, of course it did.
I just love the idea of you still trying to order, like, food from a wet market in China and have a ship.
Like, listen, I don't, I have a lifestyle.
I want Angolin and I want it delivered.
People die the flu every year.
Don't just don't get me that shit.
I mean, it's just like overnight we're in this weird situation where I'm like, I don't know.
You know, here's what's funny about this whole situation.
And I mean, I don't know that it's funny because it's, it's.
the end of the world but it is kind of funny
like you're just
in this
like we still have Instagram
we still have Twitter we still have
social media we still have
you know but you're starting to realize now
that like at least I'm
kind of starting to realize it like oh you didn't
really need people
right and like you
you don't need any of these like you can make money
if you're in the business I mean
this is very few people are in this position
but I'm like I don't need any like I didn't need a manager I didn't need an agent I didn't need all of these people I didn't I can kind of just go online and share my thoughts and if they're funny enough people will buy them or or pay to hear more of them and I do I only need one producer I don't need a studio my studio is in my house I don't need like it simplified everything and I think like a lot of people are like yeah maybe maybe there's a lot of companies that are like we don't need these massive office spaces we don't need these massive office space and we don't need a lot of
We can scale down.
We can downsize.
I think, I'm like, I don't need to fly every weekend and do stand-up comedy.
Like, I love stand-up comedy.
But, like, I'm killing myself flying every fucking weekend and do stand-up comedy.
It's ridiculous.
Like, I can just kind of simplify and pare down.
And I mean, that's a luxury position to be 100%.
But I wonder how many people are having that thought where they're like, yeah, I don't
need, how many friends do you, let's be honest?
How many friends do you really miss?
I mean, I only have, like, two friends, and I barely see them.
Well, this is what I mean.
It's like, you don't miss a lot of, dude, you don't miss a lot of people.
That's what's interesting.
No, look, I mean-
You miss the freedom to, like, go out and go places.
You don't miss a lot of people.
People say that human beings are social animals, but I've never thought so.
I've never felt that myself.
I never, I mean, look, there is a thing, though.
I do remember, like, when I was in my, like, you know, early 20s, I guess part of it's
living with your parents, you know, because, like, I couldn't stay home.
I wanted to get out.
Now, like, the young people disgust me.
If I, you know, a restaurant packed with young people or a theater packed with young people, way before this.
I mean, now it's just, you know, you're thinking about, like, you see, you hear everyone coughing and freaking out if it was even, but like, I just could, I can't stand joy.
Young people's joy, I find, I find aggressive.
So, you know, I just.
Well, it's ending, which I lie.
Like, it's also, listen, it's the result of growing up in a boom, growing up with money, growing up where everybody around you is, is, is, in many cases.
even the people that aren't doing well are able to get by.
It's coming of age during the Obama administration where there wasn't a ton of political turmoil.
And now, you know, now seeing Trump, a lot of these kids have, like, you know, turned off or whatever, you know, they're like, because now it is politically turmoil.
A lot of the people, a lot of the young people that we know came up in this period of prosperity and relative, like the country wasn't at war within itself.
you know, people weren't as, I mean, you know, those tea parties and those people in Long Island
that were dressed up like Thomas Jefferson, but nobody paid attention to them or should
have. And at the end of the day, it's like, now these kids are kind of, a lot of them are better
prepared to handle this than I would have imagined because they've grown up digitally.
They've grown up on the internet. They don't really need human interaction. That's, you know,
a bonus to them. And a lot of them are figuring out how to make money on.
online they certainly take all their classes online having a job online isn't like a
freaky thing to them like this is all you know part of how a lot of that generation is going to
work sure it's going to be just exclusively digital i mean the corporations are going to want
to push it just because like i think i think they're afraid like you know media is probably
afraid because they don't want to be they don't want their content to look like everyone else's
you know because in a few months we're all going to be making content and like the only
that they have, you know, is to have, like, higher production value and have these stars.
Because, like, if they, you know, if we all just end up working from home and, like, scaling
everything down, which, like, yeah, I'm working from home at the moment. And, like, the content's all
scaled down. It's like, you know, then they, the last, you know, people who don't want
a democratic revolution of, like, media, for instance, is the big media. They're the ones
who have an interest in keeping it, you know, condensed in the hands of a few.
But, yeah, I don't know. These, these young kids, uh, they, they close.
I mean, look, you'll hear everything on Twitter,
so you can't focus too much.
But, like, they do love to claim, though,
hey, you know, we were born in the middle of 9-11,
and then, you know, we, you know, we went to college
in the financial crisis, and now, you know,
as soon as we have a job or fucking this.
Everyone loves to fetishize the, you know,
how, like, how their victimhood and how, you know, gloom they are.
But, I don't know, at the same time,
you had these kids just kind of
they were the kind of lax a lax vibe
I mean you had the minority
that were going for Bernie
and good for them I guess
you know they wanted to health care but you know
they love to pretend like
this is assault on the boomers for instance
it just kind of feels
they love to I mean
I guess it's a legitimate victimhood
I mean this is a legitimate crisis so it's hard to
take a shit on them now but you know
they're probably loving this is my point
they're going to fetishize this for years
yeah I mean it's hard to say it's so hard to make any predictions because nobody knows where this will go you know and this you know really every system every red light on every system is blinking red everybody's using I mean people using words like depression it certainly seems like an economic death spiral sure but it doesn't feel like one yet like it doesn't feel hopeful
yet because we're only a few weeks in.
There's hope.
We're also heading into the summer.
There's something that feels even more hopeful just about the summer than if this was
happening in September and we're heading into a long winter.
And whether that's true or not, I'm sure it's purely just in our heads, but there's
something about us that we associate the summer with freedom.
And, you know, and that's going to fuck us up.
I think when we get to the summer and nothing's changed.
Especially if a lot of people don't have air conditioning
and now they're stuck inside.
I mean, you know, it's going to be a real pressure cooker.
It's going to be like that.
That's why I think we need to end this quarantine today, today.
End it today.
There should be a million people in Central Park right now.
What if there was a million people in Central Park right now?
Dancing and doing staying alive.
Staying alive, staying alive.
Ha, ha, ha, staying alive.
I mean, everyone wants to flatten the curve.
But, I mean, what if we just kind of, like, juke the curve up?
And so, like, everyone gets sick at once.
Well, curb needs to be, we need to, there needs to be hurt immunity.
It's going to happen in two weeks.
And what you should be doing, you shouldn't be feeding nurses.
You should be throwing, you should be just putting out Italian dinners in the middle of the street,
inviting strangers, like a big family-style meal and get everyone together eating out of a communal bowl.
I mean, you know, I got to be honest with you, these hospitals don't know this is coming yet,
but I'm sending a bill for that food.
Are you going to mark it up?
You're going to make a profit?
What if I sent a bill for the food?
What if I sent a bill to the hospital for the food?
Dude, this should...
You should be on your podcast every week
going after them like your fucking...
Like Lenny Bruce just like talking about the cops on stage.
Just like reading invoices on stage.
Yeah, I'm like...
I'm like, and I just call the guy.
I start yelling.
I'm like, what the fuck did you think this was?
I did you a favor.
You beat your shit.
I fucking got that food delivered.
You thought I was going to fucking pay for all of it.
Hey, we're all suffering here.
What the fuck's wrong with you?
I'll take you to small claims court.
Oh, the fucker.
I mean, the court is still running, right?
It'll be amazing if I did that, you know?
I mean, honestly,
look, the rule of law can't break down in addition to, you know, everything else.
We have to kind of maintain some civility.
You know, so, like, you know,
These hospitals have had too good for too long.
These doctors have had too good for too long.
You know, someone's got to hold them to account.
It's like, guys, what do you fucking think is going to fucking happen here?
You know?
You guys fucking think I'm going to fucking pay you away?
How much are you fucking make it?
You make no fucking money in there.
You're fucking me?
Like I said, scream, I'm like, you're fucking me?
I mean, it would just be really phenomenal.
Let's be honest.
I'll, I'll pay the filing fees if you do that.
Let's do it.
Let's go to Legal Zoom.
Let's get fucking,
Barry, is he so alive?
Who was the guy who's, like,
promoting legal?
He was one of the dream teams,
OJ's guys.
Who's Robert Shapiro?
Yeah, I just know what it is, ma'am.
I just don't want to be taking advantage of.
Do you,
did you see that story in the,
I think it was a woman who went
from D.C. to Boston on a plane
to go visit her dying mother for the day.
And she was the only one in the plane.
and like they start
and she was like taking these selfies
with the
it was like it was supposed to be like
his heartwarming story
where like the oh
the pilots just made announcements
just for her
and the and the flight
hadn't spent the whole
flight listening to stories
about her mother
and all the stuff
and she's about to go there
for the die
first of all self
it's very sad
that your mother's dying
but it's incredibly selfish
to go into a
like she's I don't want to stay there
for a day
because it's a hotbed
so it seems to me kind of selfish
You're going into a hotbed
Then coming right back
And then like
Which is very sad
Your mother's dying
But I mean
A lot of people's mothers are dying
But also like
Is this the new economy
Like
These these flight attends
Have a bed
Now you have to like
You have to like
This is the new
personalized vacation
You go and just recount
You talk about your dying mother
For an hour and a half
On a flight
It just seems grotesque to me
I don't know
These heartwarming stories
Never work
yeah it's also like
what are we going to take her word for it
it's going to get fucked
you know what I mean
like we're going to take her word for it
oh yeah my mother's dead
my mother's trying to COVID
you didn't hear of it
like
you know listen
we spent a lot of years talking about
the hustlers and the scammers
wait wait like making a castorall
what's that noise
I'm trying to find a fucking
pan to fucking
I guess I could just put that.
I just bought a frozen pizza.
I'm just going to put it in the fucking oven as you is.
I don't need to put it on a sheet.
No, put it on the grill.
Yeah, it'll be better.
It'll get crisper.
You know, it's like, you know, all I've tried to do through this whole thing is help people be a hero.
And, you know, I didn't even ask me to participate in like that, you know, that bullshit, like, you know, that bullshit, like, you know, all these fucking billionaires.
Like, you know, I mean, it's like, you know, I mean, it's a lot.
Live aid, comics, you know, get AIDS or whatever it is.
It's like...
Cam Neely Foundation.
It's like, what is my manager doing?
Like, what are you doing if you can't get me on this fucking live a thing, you dumb fuck?
It's atrocious.
It really is.
Well, the problem, I mean, part of the problem, I mean, do they have, like, Sylvester Stallone on there for some reason?
Like, everyone's home?
I don't know.
But I can be on, like, hour four, which is like nobody.
It's like, get me on hour four of that goddamn thing.
I mean, it's like, what do I have to do?

listen, I never
want to have a studio that's not in my house.
That's what I've decided. I always want to have a
where I live to do my podcast and I'm going to go on the road when I want like a few weeks
every three months and that's it yeah everything else is fucking done everyone's go fuck himself
I don't care I'll do spots at the comedy clubs it'll have me if they're open and other
than that I truly don't give a shit I mean I don't give a fuck you know it's like I mean the entire
apparatus of comedy it's like a holdover of a distant time it right
Look, I hope, and not, you know, a malice, but just have efficiency.
I hope that a lot of this, if it comes back, it comes back, like, a lot of these, these hangarons
and these fucking people who should have been out of this fucking system 15 years ago,
just go, go do something productive with your life.
There's so many, like, just kind of, like, adjacent people who, like, have found a way
to kind of ingratiate themselves into a system that, like, doesn't need them at all.
I mean, and with the whole digital revolution,
the whole podcasting and now you can just kind of and Twitter you can cultivate your own audience
you don't need look I'm not talking about like the actual I mean some of the clubs sure but a lot
of these fucking like you know these shittier clubs and he's shitty your fucking and these shudder's
and these bookers and he's like you know these fucking people who book these independent shows
and these prima donnas it's just I mean of course a lot of old people are going to die
a lot of young people are going to die but the one silver lining is maybe this whole thing will
get streamlined a little bit yeah it's going to be I don't mean it
needed to. It needed to. I bet a lot of businesses needed to. There was a lot of
extra, and this is a correction, and it's going to be brutal, and hopefully the government
can alleviate some of that pain or whatever. Do you think this is finally, I mean, I'm sure
either way to death now, because, I mean, real estate in New York, it never really dipped
high-end real estate, never dipped really since, even in the 08 crash, it didn't really
dip, right? Yeah, yeah, it never did. It never did, but that's specific.
Basically because domestic money was replaced with foreign money.
Sure.
But there's a real, like, it's not Manhattan, you know,
because people talk about that statistic and it's like,
it's not Manhattan's magic.
It's just that they just replace the source of money.
Right.
But because to your point, you were saying,
you know,
and I think you're right,
it will be a lot of people who will work from home going forward.
They'll realize, you know,
but will that affect real estate in New York?
Because you're the people who are buying it,
like these foreign people aren't usually buying,
like these high-end luxury condos,
and stuff a lot of the time, right?
So you think that that would take a dip?
Well, I think two things are going to affect real estate in New York outside of the pandemic,
which is quite obvious.
And, like, you know, when we, you know, number one is that there are going to be a percentage
of people, and I don't know who, but they're going to leave New York now.
I mean, it's just what's going to happen.
They're going to leave.
I have a friend of the realtor in New York.
She said, people are ready going to her quietly and going to put me on the market,
get me out of here.
I'll take a loss.
I just don't want to hold anything right.
I want out.
they want out there are people that are holding their apartments and they realize they're not going to be able to sell them at any type of profit for years you know years 24 months minimum but then there are people that are like I will take a loss I just don't want to carry the cost of having this apartment I want out I want to be liquid right now for whatever's coming and I need to cash out even at a great loss so a lot of people are just going to get the fuck out that's the first thing so there's going to be inventory and like price for
are going to fall, this, that, and the other thing.
And I think the second thing that's going to affect real estate, specifically in New York,
and specifically in Manhattan is, like, how deep is the cut of, you know, the financial turmoil
specific to specifically commercial real estate, like commercial real estate?
because the commercial real estate market is going to get hit by this,
and it depends how hard that gets hit.
Like, do you see a commercial real estate crash similar to a subprime mortgage crisis?
Like, do you see that, which is very possible that you see massive defaults on commercial real estate?
And that will affect real estate, New York, you know, commercial, residential, everything,
just if you end up seeing a crisis similar to the 08 crisis, but in the, in the,
commercial real estate.
We're like people who are beyond fucked.
We've got to walk away and there's a mass defaults and bank failures and shit like that.
But New York City is in trouble.
Do you think?
I mean, the fact that, look, of course, the value of commercial real estate is also extremely high in New York.
And a lot of people that are listening to the show know that I am a real estate developer.
Sure.
And I'm and I, and me and you both run Thor Xx, which is a hedge fund.
And we're doing quite well.
We're involved in a lot of pandemic adjacent.
We always do well.
That's what we tell our clients.
Mostly because, as I tell them, the stocks are fake.
Yeah, listen, four equities we've got, we, we say, hey, just get it done.
That's our, you know.
What were you saying before I cut you off?
Yeah, well, like, because the thing is with commercial real estate, I'm not saying that
it's not going to take a huge haircut or just, you know, massive, you know, but there wasn't
really like a
bubble the same way there
was in like the lead up to
the 08 crash you know
so I wonder like it might just
kind of be more like the new
status quo like almost like a Detroit
where um it just kind of
starts to rock here's here's what it comes
down to um
what are businesses
you know how soon do people
start spending money
in commercial businesses
again
And that becomes the major issue.
And are there rent freezes in the meantime for commercial businesses?
Right.
I can't imagine that, you know, you're not going to see a significant – I mean, right now, nobody's spending money commercial.
Now, we know that's not going to last forever.
But even when these things reopen, what percentage of their business do they retain?
And is there any debt forgiveness on the other end?
Because if there's no forgiveness of debt, if there's no rent-freeze for these commercial establishments, you know, they're done, you know?
And it depends on, you know, the larger corporations will swallow the smaller ones up.
But like, you know, and I was reading an article about that the other day where it's like there were problems before, you know, everybody's been talking about the commercial real estate crash that never came.
Right.
This is since the way.
Everybody's been writing about it, the death of malls, the death.
the brick and mortar retail stores
you saw a transition from like
you know we always joke around about these
shitty like a pop-up stores and these
experiences and like
you know we're you know all of these like
the cereal store and it's all this bullshit
which like you know what I mean
like they're packaging nostalgia
and it's like it's not enough
it's not just a store it's here's a DJ
and you know I'll jerk you on it's like a whole thing
and a lot of that came
like somehow replace
but it never materialized
like people still wanted to go out even though Amazon was taking a large swath like people still wanted to leave their home
they want to go to the M&M store they want the shop right well they still wanted the shop right a lot of it was tourism a lot of it was tourism by the way which is now dead yeah but it's been the thing that everybody's talked about forever and now it just seems like the logical culmination of every trend that everyone imagines plus a stay-at-home order I mean there's a stop work order where you know consumption's dropped completely and now it's just like how to these
businesses come back I mean unless and you would think open up you would think that it would
like oh well it's the you know e-commerce is so big but it means you know the years leading up to this
amazon just gobbled up so much of the marketplace and then probably you know Walmart and
target and a few other places like or a distant second but like you know because when the internet
was e-commerce not quite the internet but you know when e-commerce became a big thing and like
you know it's during a tech boom in the 90s and early 2000
there were tons of stores he would go to like different weird little websites uh i went to college
of a guy who was like a millionaire he was like 18 because he made his like DVD website and i went
to it it was a complete garbage website but i mean people he like his things were like a dollar
cheaper than everyone else and like you were able to do that and then like you know amazon what are you
are you fucking like working a goddamn steam engine what they're making a pizza okay
What kind of pizza is the pepper roll?
No, I'm hearing rings and bells and fucking.
It sounds like you're working at the richable.
Listen, it's sound effects, and you're not being charged, actually.
The fucking, Jimmy Fallon, you know, they broadcasts at the night show with like a horrible resolution.
It's like your listeners can handle the ringing of a bell.
I appreciate.
I appreciate you being here.
But, no, but it's just like you don't even have that saving grace.
Yeah, some people are making money on eBay.
And they're giving shit to these guys who are price gouging on eBay.
It's a little distasteful, but I was able to buy flour.
I spent $30 on a 10-pound bag of flour,
which is an exorbitant price, I guess.
I've never bought flour before,
but we want to make some bread, make some tortilla wraps.
And, you know, and people, look, gouging is distasteful,
and sometimes it's gross.
And, like, you know, in a crisis,
if you're gouging medicine, sure.
But, I mean, there's a logic for it.
But, you know, the reality is,
if this guy couldn't have made a huge profit by selling me some fucking flour,
I wouldn't there wouldn't there's no flower in the store I can't get it so it's like
you know I mean the only people who are at besides
Amazon are making money on this shit is fucking you know price
guys it was like you know Purell in there in their in their basement and you know
it's like I don't hate on nobody's hustle right I don't hate on nobody's hustle
no I think if you got a vaccine sell that shit yeah know what I mean
sell a fake vaccine and you well that's what I mean I don't mean a real
I mean like if you got something that you think is kept you safe from the Rona
sell that shit
Alex Jones loves to talk about that silver spray
Oh yeah
And like I think
The FBI went after him right
Yeah
You better cut this shit out
We're not giving
Meanwhile
Meanwhile they're giving Rush Limbaugh
The Medal of Freedom
I can go in after this guy
Right
Right Rush Limba the medal of Vita man
for Rush Limba said the whole thing was fake
Yeah
Yeah
Rush Limba was like yeah
This whole crisis is fake
And he's getting the medal of freedom
That is hilarious
I mean, it's also, it really, like, look, like, he got that unless the month later
we're in the middle of that.
I mean, it really was a bad to open.
Oh, yeah.
It's just so perfect, you know?
Rush Limbaugh Medal of Freedom.
You were a big Rush fan back in the day, right?
You used to love Rush, right?
I mean, again, what do you say?
You used to love Rush, right?
You were a big Rush guy back in the, you know, I don't listen to him.
I mean, I just don't listen anymore because it's like, you know, it's one of those things
where, like, you've got, there's certain ways you listen to certain things, right?
Yeah.
Like, you rush Limbaugh, you have to be in Long Island, you have to be in a gas-causing
SUV, you have to be on drugs, and you have to be selling something.
Like, you did, it happens to me.
When you take away even one of those elements, it's not nearly a song, you know?
Like, you can't, it just doesn't work.
You need to have those elements.
But I used to listen to him because he was like, he was very funny, and he was amazing
that he could go for three hours.
Yeah.
he was a goddamn pro you got to hand with him on that um i mean it was better when he was wrong
like the show was better when he knew he was wrong i mean just the idea i mean it's atrocious
everyone brings it up like that whole thing with the health care he's like this girl wants
birth control what kind of horror is she i got paid for her to be a whore i mean the leap
you have to make it's impressive it's gross but it's impressive i love when he told people
after his first heart attack he's like i paid all my own bills in there he wouldn't help people out
because then people would be like,
oh, I don't have that kind of money.
He's like, if you refuse,
he's like, I'm not going to make it political
by telling you how much I spent.
He clearly spent $400,000 in the money, you know.
Yeah, but he only spent that because he didn't want, like,
if he did use health insurance,
you know, he wanted to like the,
they flew some doctor in probably from fucking D.C. or wherever,
you know, he, yeah.
It's not exactly.
He wanted to survive.
Yeah, he's not exactly.
a move a move in
solidarity with the workers
no no
solidarity with the workers
what do you
yeah what do you make moving on a bit
what do you make this uh this hospital boat
I mean people for a moment
I've talked a lot about this hospital boat
um I've stoked a lot of
fear with the hot I've said that
you know it's probably going to mow people down it's gonna be
it's gonna bulldoze obviously I'm joking
someone
a train engineer near you in the Port of
Los Angeles, where we were about a month ago.
We took a trip over there.
And this is not some, like, Yahoo homeless guy.
He's a guy who apparently is driving the train.
He thought the hospital boat was like some kind of invasion ship.
And, uh, or it's a, you know, maybe he's a Q guy.
I don't know.
But he tried to do a high speed derail into the hospital boat in, in L.A., which I find, uh,
yeah, yeah, and that's scary.
But it's also like, you know, one of these elite people think was going to happen when, like,
He just fed everyone garbage and drugs for years and then lied to everyone just enough
so that everyone would develop, you know, somewhat understandable deep wells of paranoia
and then take everyone's money.
It's like, yeah, you're going to, yeah, like, yeah, you have a population out of paranoid
schizophrenics who've been running on cheap credit and sugar for their entire lives,
and now they don't have any money, and now they're like trying to fight a war with you
and they don't even know how
so they're trying to derail trains and shit
I mean it's gonna get crazy
I mean do you think
it's gonna be the fucking Turner Diaries
I know there's a myth of American
not just not just exceptionalism
but of like oh we're uh
self-sufficient and uh
and we don't and we don't panic
we don't we don't we don't scare easy
but uh which you know I'm sure
like any network news
would prove otherwise you know in the ratings
but uh do you think 9-11
was the kind of
the real big ching in the armor for like
because like that that that that that fetishize fear for a lot
for a huge part of the population that that kind of
like the government kind of created a culture of fear
with with like you know not just the attacks themselves
but you know the years and you know following you know
the yeah oh today's a yellow alert and tomorrow's a green one
we got reports of a cell and upstate New York and all this shit
do you think uh
do you think they that kind of like was a big part of what led to this kind of
like QAnon type conspiracy
culture in
recent years
hello do we lose Tim
hello
yeah yeah yeah the
the Q-in-on-on thing
is a manipulation
so that is that somebody
whoever it is has taken nuggets
of truth
and weave them into a narrative
and I don't know who's responsible
I don't know if it's trolls
I don't know if it's people in Trump
an administration like this? I don't know who it is. On gut level, I mean, you can't,
you don't know for sure, but on gut level, do you think it's someone like fucking around
in the administration? Very possibly. Yeah. I mean, very positive. I mean, I have no idea,
but so at the end of the day, it's like Q and I've kind of something different. It's like
a whole different thing. Like, what, what that is, I mean, like,
the culture of fear and paranoia, we've always had in this country, and for good reason,
because we are being lied to. Like, you know gutterily you're being lied to here. You just don't
know how and why. Like, you don't know how and why, but you know it's all bullshit. You just
know it is. You just instinctively know it's fake. And you just don't know how. So, like,
anyone that just kind of weaponizes that very defensible instinct that you have, because
you're like, you know, again, the amount of coincidences you just have to ignore, you know,
Kennedy, Martin Luther King, Bobby Kennedy, like all of these things that just have happened,
you know, Iran contra, this, that. You have to ignore all of that, and you just have to
go, you know, the amount of shrugging you have to do to believe that you're being
held with honesty in this country is, I mean, your shoulders would break. So, but then you
get to a point with Q&O, which is interesting, where somebody goes, let me take nuggets
and kernels of all that, and let me convince people. It's almost like, how could it not
be somebody in the administration or with some type of vested interest in people loving
President Trump? Because what Q&N is, and I also think there might be institutional religious
people get involved because really it's just a
remarketing. It's a reprimanded Christianity.
These people are evil. We're good.
You know, I think it will eventually
leads people back to, you know, putting money in the coffers
of, like, corrupt ministers and stuff.
But, like, yeah,
I don't know that just a troll
would have such an investment
in propping up Trump
because this is what
this ultimately seeks to do. It tells people
that Trump is the only person
in the world that is fighting
against his cabal of rich
powerful pedophiles so it's like it's either a foreign country doing it or it's a bunch of trolls
doing it but yeah because anything's possible but the idea that like someone who isn't buying into
Trump because Trump's whole thing is just it's the massive huckster you know nonsense it's all
like I mean just just just the the blatant like um it's not even plausible to lying so like
you know someone someone who's that like you know you it's not like you have like
it's not like Trump is bad
with the Bush administration
you had like
Halliburton and Neocons
and his hunting with a C-PAC
or the project of a New American Century
Pinnac or whatever
you had like vested interest
and shit but like with this
it's like the idea that it would be a troll
like why would they love
Trump because they like the apprentice you know what
would be there maybe it's a long game
troll by a foreign entity
going when none of this shit
happens when the storm never comes
maybe a certain percentage of people pick up got
you know?
I mean, yeah.
That's the other thing.
That's possible.
Do you think, look, I don't buy, when we talk about like satanic pedophiles, which are a thing,
and it's overblown, the satanic element of it.
But there is a certain level of Satanism.
And yeah, it is.
Yeah.
And like, all that shit.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I almost wonder, there's such a lack of rhyme or reason to any of it.
Like, like, Rumsfeld made sense, at least.
You know, and fucking, and the, what's his name, Cheney made sense.
The whole day, the Iraq war was like, you know,
a big work, but it may,
you saw why you were doing it.
This almost kind of feels like it's some power of like
getting the people into a state of
just complete chaotic frenzy.
It's almost like an occult, a massive occult ritual,
the early stages of it.
What do you think of that?
Well, I do think there's always been,
I do think there's always been some interest
in, you know,
trying to manipulate people's minds, right?
And, you know, that, you know,
manifests itself in several different ways,
but I think if you look at like the onset of like the 60s, the drug use, the LSD, the Colts,
and the way the CIA kind of used all these things and worked with a lot of these people,
whether it's the finders or, you know, whoever, I think a lot of it was in the beginning.
It was experimentation and treating human beings like guinea pigs
and thinking about how you could terrify them and how far you could stretch there.
You know, mind, could you totally destroy them and build them back up?
You know.
Yeah, no, for sure.
People are in the weird shit.
I mean, that's the thing.
This has gone around, like, the Marquis de Saad.
Like, people have been in a sadistic, you know.
The emperors of Rome, I think it was Nero.
You should just go out and attack people on the street.
I mean, these were, you know, like, these were people that were.
I mean, apparently Tiberia supposedly was fucking infants in the mouth.
I mean, you know, that's what you.
I mean, I used to read a lot of Roman history.
There's a problem is, like, even back then, the guy who wrote that was a guy called Tassiz.
this who wrote was cold.
You're sitting in that,
you're sitting in the COVID yard.
You're saying,
I'm very,
and they're like,
can you shut your mouth?
People are sick here.
They're like,
I don't have COVID.
I'm telling you right now I don't have it.
But I just say,
you're just talking about all this shit.
I mean,
the ruling class has only got a predulation
for incredibly,
you know,
dark and twisted shit.
Well,
the problem is they need,
they look,
you can't work your whole life
or have your dad work his whole life
and leave it to you
for nothing you need I mean it sounds terrible but you need to have a perk
and like and the more permissive society gets I mean you know you got to start
looking like you need to be able to do something that no one else is allowed to do I guess
that's part of it I guess it's part of it I mean I think it's been going on forever though
so I think maybe it's more innate like we're just there's something in our species
maybe I don't think it's exclusive to rich people either but I think a certain
percentage of rich people are just pedophiles and or sociopaths yeah
and they're able to control it and conceal it,
and, like, they're able to facilitate it.
And, I mean, you know, it's hard to say, you know,
but, you know, there are occult people.
I think it's dark that the people realize.
My whole problem with Q is, like, like,
the whole thing is just a broad brush
of, like, everyone in Hollywood, it's not true.
But if you said that, like,
kind of failure was a massive problem,
it's a way, even if you went as far as to say,
it's part of the way that they arrange certain hierarchies,
and society and shit, I'd be like, yeah, probably
with you on that in terms of like, when you
look at the way that it's used to blackmail
people, you know, but when
you say that my, my break
with you is that
Donald Trump, who didn't
care at all about these kids
for his entire life, when he was hanging out with
Epstein, when he was, like, the guy
had a modeling agency, like, why did he have a
modeling agency? Because he respects women. Like,
what are he doing? No, look, he clearly
probably is a pedophile on some
level. I mean, like, you have to... It's like a
Imagine this is the only thing that I could compare it to.
Imagine there is a huge conspiracy against meat eaters and the abusive animals.
And I come out and I'm like the vegan prince of freeing animals.
And you go to my Instagram and Twitter and Facebook go, all this guy has done his entire life is eat me.
What the fuck?
like we're supposed to believe that like what happened
what happened in his mind that made him
and at least coincide at least W
not that he like he was just a cokehead and a partier
but at least he had a fake come to Jesus moment
like at least he pretended like he had like he found God
Trump there's never been a narrative where Trump like all of a sudden
like gave a shit about you know any of this
if you explain to and on a Trump he'd go you know
human trafficking's very bad
big problem
you know he wouldn't care
like I don't think he cares why
the people support him
it's very bad I've made a lot of money
right
it's a deep well of narcissism
you know it's like and I'm a comic
I get it sometimes you win the way
you want to win on stage and sometimes it's an ugly
win like you pointed a guy in the crowd
and go look at this fat fuck and everyone laughs
you know
it you know because I'm fat too
I'd be like me and you man
we'd be fat somewhere
I never goes yeah that's true
so and it's an ugly
win. You're like, I didn't want to win that way, but I couldn't win any other way.
I think very much Trump is that type of guy where he goes, I don't care why they're voting
for me. Like, they could be voting for me because they think I'm going to arrest Oprah.
Good. Like, just put him in a, I don't, he doesn't. Someone says to him, they think you're going to
arrest on Hank? He's like, oh, can we look into that? That might not be a bad idea.
Yeah. Like, he'd be like, you know, he would, by the way, that's exactly what he'd say.
He probably wouldn't even say, no. He'd be like, we're looking into a lot of things right now.
we're handling a lot of you know it's just the perfect president for this stage of
America because you look at the diehard Trump fan to die hard people that truly believe in
it and what it is you trace it back to a lot of it you trace it back to the disappearance of
not only religion but of like community in this country social clubs
people having any type of identity, people having any type of communal, like, outlets, like people
just being lonely and alienate.
And those are the guys that because their community now is Q&N.
Or on the other side, their community is social justice.
Like, they go to these online digital communities to replace what used to be a bowling league.
Bowling is now Q&O.
You know what I mean?
like the church, the local church, like in the town that I grew up in, the local Catholic
church would throw festivals, they do all this bullshit, you know, all of that has been replaced
by just rabid loyalty to Trump.
And it's like, oh, this is what happens when you hollow communities out of anything that
bonds them together, and you just have people that are alienated that don't even know
who their neighbors are that feel alone.
Then they go online and they're like, well, I want a community.
and then they quickly find these echo chambers of people that are charismatic.
It's the same reason you have, you know, those Islamic fundamentalist preachers,
if you watch them, fucking great.
They're like, wow, this guy is, like, really good.
Like, one of my favorites Islamic fundamentalist creatures is a guy in Brooklyn,
and you watch him in his whole sermon, is his defense of taking first glass.
He's like, it is nice to have nice things, yeah.
And everyone in the mosque is like, yeah, she's like,
God wants you to have these good things, he's nice things.
he's nice thing.
And he was so funny and affable, you're like, oh, this is what we have.
We just have alienated, lonely people that are, Donald Trump's the most successful of these
narcissists, but they're everywhere, whether it's Gary Van der Chuck or where, like, people
are taking you in because you don't have a family and you don't have friends anymore
that you used to have friends that you would meet at the local bar.
You know, all of these shows, whether it's King of the Hill, family guy, the Simpsons,
no one has four or five friends before that they go to the bar with like nobody even has that
so people now are just so i think alienated that they're just they're they're they're
it's a wide open market for people to just build cults i really should get into that game i mean
you know we're starting here but uh yeah i mean you're too i'm trying but i like to make people
laugh too much i can't like it's hard to me to be like so much of your life how you're gonna make
money guys so much of it is i mean of the best guys if you take a step back is funny it's
the most impressive thing about some of these guys is that they don't they don't break to laugh
they don't they don't start cracking up correct correct that's it dude that's why i couldn't really
do it like the most you you just hit the nail on the head big time the greatest skill of a guy
like gary vannier chuck is that he doesn't look at the camera go can you believe i'm fucking
saying this shit can you believe i'm doing and saying what i like
Can you believe I make a living like this?
Like, I would respect the hell out of that guy who looked at the camera even once and went,
fuck, guys, can you believe this?
I mean, so much.
I mean, I remember in college, I read Dale Carnegie's how, like, you know, that famous
how to make friends and influence people.
And so much of it's like, you know, if you see it, you know, you're trying to sell
us a guy something.
Oh, you see as a fisherman, start telling him about fishing and then asking him, I don't know,
it's weird, like the level of insincerity that goes along with, like,
success in this country
and it works
I mean but like I
well not only but but the Dale
Carnegie's in the world are the Dave
Chappelle's compared to the Gary Vee like
Dale Carnegie they were
actually saying something like Bill Carnegie
even in your even in what you just
described was giving you some kind of
advice like look at the fishermen
talk about fish I mean the
generic horse shit that
they pedal now whether it's
Ty Lopez or Gary Vayner's
they don't even break like
Dale Carnegie or
or who's the big sales guy, Zig Ziglar.
They at least were like, all right, let me walk you through a sale.
You sit down, you look at the prospect, you ask the prospect of question, let him answer.
He, there at least go to, dude, Gary Vaynerner, these guys are literally going out and going, crush it.
I'm not, but to succeed in America, I'm saying is like, but to succeed in America, and he's right, you know, you kind of have to be this false person.
Like, you have to, and like, because I would never, like, I would always, like, I look like, I see what you're saying, but I can't in the good conscience just, like, start, like, pretend.
I also Fitch or whatever or start pretending to give a shit.
And some of it's also just a fat slob.
But here's the thing.
You are a person.
I am a person.
Most people are not people.
I mean,
most people don't have thoughts,
ideas,
values.
Like I was trying to tell somebody the other day,
I'm like,
I've never wanted to be at a music festival
or in the green room with Drake.
I like going to the Continental Club in Austin, Texas,
where there's 40 people.
It's a bar.
I don't see and James McMurtry.
I don't think I'm better than the people
that Arthur Drake thing
It's just for me
What's authentic
To for me
Is the McMurtry thing with 40 people
In a bar in Austin, Texas
Because it's like
That's as close to the reality
Of what that guy is
As you can get, right?
I don't want to see him at Carnegie Hall
I just
Seeing him where he performs in Austin
At midnight on Wednesday
To me it's like that'll probably go
And I've seen Bruce Springsteen at the Garden
I've seen amazing
amazing thing.
But it might be the best musical performance
I've ever seen because it was the most
real. It's the most authentic.
There was no corporate sponsors.
There was no tickets.
I think you walked in, you paid $5 or $10.
Like, everyone was there to just hear
music because they love the dude.
And it was over. It was
a two-hour show. It was fucking wild.
You played so many songs. But that was
it. There was no other element. There was no
fashion. Everybody was dressed like shit.
People were dancing, but they didn't know
how to dance. I mean, everything
about it. Yeah. When I went to New Orleans,
you go to Frenchman Street, not Bourbon Street, Frenchman
Street. And like, every bar you walk
into, you buy a beer, and you were hearing
the greatest music I've heard
in my life, the greatest live music,
and it's just nameless people
doing stuff that blows your mind.
And then, like, you know,
it's just, it's a different world in, like, you know,
the music and the entertainment, like,
you know, and even what I normally consume.
I'm not trying to be above it.
It's like, oh, my God, it's like,
it's like there's a level of manufacture
just slop that we all just kind of
most of us kind of accept even if we know better
you know it's just a yeah
I mean it's just one of those things we're like
I mean you look at TikTok TikTok
TikTok is people lip syncing
the movie quotes and songs of other people
it's amazing they're building the following
lip syncing the words of other people
it's like
no even though yeah it was ruined
ruined yeah
ruined. These people have massive careers, their talent is being good-looking, and or
lip-sicking. We've given up in this country in terms of art. We've given up across the board.
So it's just kind of about how the end plays out. I mean, I don't know what art looks like
in 50 years in this country, but I mean, outside of a few shows, the Americans, things like
that, it's pretty garbage. No, even TV, like the golden age of TV had been over for at least
five years, six years, seven years.
Yeah. We're in a steep decline.
But we're a steep decline and
it'll only be accelerated
I think by
you know what's happening now because
in order to get people out now I mean
it's going to be like, I mean
Broadway's done. They'll never be
I didn't take you to see the ferryman, did I?
No, I didn't see the fairerment. It's a shame.
It was so great. I mean, we're never going to
listen. It's going to be a dude.
Broadway is now going to be like
Cardi B does a musical about climate
it's going to be so bad
she's going to be like
the polar cops are melted
that ain't fucking good
it's going to be so bad
that you
because that's the only way
they're going to get people out
those your cat does Hamlet
I mean dude they're not
you're not going to see
an Arthur Miller play
I mean I hope you are
you're not going to see a view
from the bridge
you're not going to see
and dude that's fucking sad
because like
that's where we're headed
and those are the only
like you're just going to see
this saccharin crap
which is going to be celebrity infested
and the celebrities are not going to know
how to sing or dance
and they're just going to go on stage
and people are going to buy tickets
to be in a room with a celebrity
and that's going to be the death now
I mean that's kind of
it's already the death now
like Broadway is already
60% horseshit
but then you'd have 40% of like
okay death of a salesman
the ferry men
original musicals
that are still kind of good
it's ending
and it's going to be
unless this
turns around quickly, and unless they just start testing the vaccinations on the military and go,
it's for your country, shut your mouth, which they probably should do.
And there's articles saying they might start doing that, but they might just be like,
hey, man, it's free of country.
What?
Yeah, they're just thinking about just testing the military.
But do they even need to do that?
Like, I mean, I don't know much about clinical trials, but I didn't think they needed to, I thought by the time they start testing on people, it's pretty safe, right?
Like, it's not like...
I mean, I don't know.
No, it's dark
Do you think they cure this thing
And then like
I don't want to be stroking any fear here
But like there's nothing to say that like
We can't have another
Like next year or two years from now
There won't be another virus
Like if we're going to be any better prepared next thing
It happens again
I mean
That's why I think this doesn't change
That's why I think things don't ever go back to normal
In the way that they were
I think there's
I think
I think you're going to look
at fever
detection is being huge. I think
that biotech
companies are going to pioneer
a lot of type of fever detection
equipment
technology. I don't think that
I think it's very possible that to get into
a concert
or a large gathering of people
you might have to go through some
infrared thing. I think
that, yeah, I mean the only thing they'll save us now
is technology and med science. And I
I mean, that's all that'll save us.
I mean, that's really it.
I mean, listen, the best time to live in this country
was from the 60s or 70s through, you know, two weeks ago.
Sure.
You know?
I mean, we should on boomers, but I mean,
that was the best time to live in the world.
We should on boomers, but I would have done what they did.
I mean, I'm not any better than them.
We only, we shoot on boomers because they just haven't left quietly.
That's all.
The whole thing with boomers is just, it's not even that you looted
and burned everything down.
Just leave quietly, you know?
you can't have moral authority
it's like boomers are like if Ken Lay
didn't kill himself
I'm like she became some televangelious
it's just shut off like
that's my only real issue
like I regret not traveling
I look at the world man I'm like I wish I'd done
Italy and Paris on this bullshit
but I dedicated my whole life to fucking
telling jokes and nightclubs but it's like
you look at it and you're like wow
you know
I can't believe
that
You know, things are never going to, like, it's going to be, fuck, dude.
Italy, you have Doja cat.
You don't need Italy.
It's good.
Listen, that ain't wrong.
You ain't wrong.
I mean, do you think Italy's going to ever go back to being like, actually, like, when are we going to be able to go to Italy and get like a bowl of pasta and be like, hey?
I mean, a couple of years.
Look, they'll vaccinate the fucking place.
If we don't get another virus, which, like, to be fair, is it not, like, we went a lot of years about having one.
And so it's probably fine.
The thing about Italy is, like, they all live together, but, like, are they going to change that?
I mean, part of it's like half that country is like, you know, the houses, not every house, of course, but, like, so much of that country is really old and old buildings and they value their old stuff.
It's like, you know, you have to bulldoze so much of it to, like, you know, to make room for, like, you know, old people to live separately from their kids and stuff.
I don't know.
They all live on top of each other.
It's part of the charm.
So it's like.
Right.
And they love, look.
I mean, they have.
they have a certain passion for life the way they live it.
So they'll get beaten down,
but I feel like they're arrogant enough.
They have a whole thing in Italy, apparently,
which makes sense, but I didn't know.
Like, I don't remember the word for it,
but the governors have to be like,
they're like kind of plead to not use,
and there's a term for like cleverly circumventing rules.
And it's part of their culture.
It's not, you know, it's like just to kind of be outlaws,
to be, not outlaws per se,
but, you know, to be kind of,
to push back against
you know any kind of you know
authority so I mean we have that
in America too
yeah it's just it seemed more fun
the way they put it though it seemed more like
you know like it was right
so what do you say that's gonna help them
or not I think they'll come out of it
and not necessarily their spirit
might not be broken as much I think you know
I mean look they got bombed to shit during World War II
and they're still pretty
they have a lot of pride so I think they'll come out of it
I mean
I just want to go to a nice Italian restaurant
in Italy to be sure.
You know, it's not fair to me.
This is all not fair to me.
I just want to go to Paris before it looked like fucking,
you know, what's the capital of Saudi Arabia?
I hate when I have to fucking think to be right.
Oh, yeah, Riyadh, Riyadh.
Yeah, I just wanted to go to Paris before it was fucking, look at MECA, you know?
Can I just go to France, you know?
Yeah.
You did too flay and not get bombed.
I mean, I always say, I always come too late.
Like I came to the morgue too late
People are always telling me
You know
You're at Henry Clay Kisinger
Writing articles
Like kind of prop up
Globalism and everything
He's like
We need a world order
That's just shut up
Fucking genocidal pig
How is that guy still?
He's the only one still pumping
I fucking
He's still
Dude he is
You're not kidding
Dude he wants to look
About adrenicrom
That guy's got
He's got
He's the only one still
Go and he's still
We'll wrap this up
So what do you think
Drives the guy
Like he was he 90 now
I mean like
what is he even
I mean he's seen the world kind of decay
and like all the moves
I mean at that level so I think at that level
it's a guy that like had such a huge
influence for so long on the way the world
actually worked yeah
and now I think it's you know
his version now is just writing up that and stuff
I'm sure he has a direct line that probably drop
and probably people around him
he's just like here's the accent
but I mean like this multilateral
world order bullshit thing that they tried to build
is falling apart very quickly
trying to save face
for history or for whatever
like he's trying to be like
yeah no guys
which is good
you know
these super national organizations
are great that don't
respect anybody's nationhood
or you know
no that's the way to do it
and every global system
should be some weird
financial
system that people barely understand
and it just benefits to ranch
and you know that's the move
it's such a thing
it's such a move
of whatever these people
people are these globalists that like
I mean for decades now and like it's not just
a minority thing Kissinger is known for being
whatever he wasn't under Nixon and also
as a war criminal like and it's
such a huge prevalent thing and they
and like every fucking you know generation
with the Iraq war they brought him back with this
they're like like why don't they just have him
fucking take a curtain call and fucking bring
someone else out I mean this guy
is tainted. But I think it also yeah I think
you look at these guys it's just kind of like
this whole thing whether it's globalism or not
it's just people who want to control
more territory, largest
slots of the world. The same thing is the
hill of the hunt. It's just, the export
now is not, you know,
you know,
it's put in a better package,
but it's the same thing. It's just they want power. They want to
own everything. They want to control everything.
And that's why they hate Russia. I'm not saying
Russia's good, or I'm not saying that as well as good
or anything. But like, you just hate people that
resist being in the system, you know?
And that's what it really truly
is. And that's why, you
You know, guys are kids who are still firing off our beds
because you're like, you know, the system must be protected at all cost.
That's really what these guys are invested in.
It's the system.
And it's the system, and that's why you need the skull and bone
and all the feeder societies, bullshit, you know, whatever it is that, you know,
elevates people so that they all can be counted on to protect the system.
That is what you're looking at.
It's the system over anything else.
It's barely the country.
I think the country is a part of the system.
America is just one of the ways to enforce the system.
And the system is the most important thing.
And that's why you see all of these, you know, elitists, they're groomed for the majority of their lives to be secret of private people that, you know, have a lot of dirt on each other and are, you know, enforcers of a certain code.
that's really all what it is.
I mean, whether you talk about the predilection for sexual violence or the degradation of women or children
and the way that that gets swept under the rug and protected and, like, all of it is just because
those people, when they are called upon, hold up the system and enforces it in whatever capacity they can.
Could be writing an op-ed, could be putting a bullet in someone's head, could be securing mining rights.
It's whatever they can do from their vener could be just making a movie where they play a patriotic soldier because they get the narrative.
It's like in whatever capacity you uphold the system that is gone.
What a brilliant rant.
I should have done it on my show.
