                                         Do you have pulpit chair, Ben?
                                         
                                         Kind of like just sitting on the ground.
                                         
                                         Okay.
                                         
                                         You're going to like that for an hour?
                                         
                                         Well, I'm going to oscillate between that and just doing this.
                                         
                                         You're going to just start shitting like you're using a squatty potty?
                                         
                                         Mm-hmm.
                                         
                                         Well, I've been taking Korean Orange Theory classes, and they just have you squat like this for 30 minutes.
                                         
    
                                         They hit us with cigarettes at the door.
                                         
                                         The guy just hits you with canes until you're...
                                         
                                         Wait, what?
                                         
                                         What did you just say?
                                         
                                         You're taking Korean Orange classes?
                                         
                                         Oh, do you know what Orange Theory is?
                                         
                                         No.
                                         
                                         Orange Theory is a very popular gym now where you go and it's like, what is it? Maybe 180 a month? 300 a month?
                                         
    
                                         White whores do it and they get on a bike
                                         
                                         and a gay black man screams at them
                                         
                                         until they, you know. Okay.
                                         
                                         So it's not even an Asian guy that runs the class?
                                         
                                         No, so Ben's saying he's doing the Asian
                                         
                                         version. Oh, the Asian one.
                                         
                                         Where they just make you do Korean exercises.
                                         
                                         Right, which I was about to call, until you rudely interrupted,
                                         
    
                                         I was about to call it Orge Chicken Theory.
                                         
                                         That joke's been ruined.
                                         
                                         Yes.
                                         
                                         If one of us bombs hard enough, we have to do a cannonball in the pool.
                                         
                                         Yeah, cannonball in the pool.
                                         
                                         Yeah, just hold me under and just kill me.
                                         
                                         Since I met us do an outside episode.
                                         
                                         I'm sick, by the way.
                                         
    
                                         Well, I'm not sick.
                                         
                                         My dumb girlfriend got sick going to Texas.
                                         
                                         She has bronchitis.
                                         
                                         I kept thinking we were doing it outside because of your parents being in town.
                                         
                                         But then I'm now realizing it's because you're sick.
                                         
                                         I thought somehow the slurs had to be outdoors.
                                         
                                         It's like how dogs are getting punished.
                                         
                                         And it's like, just put them outside for eight hours.
                                         
    
                                         That's what I thought was happening.
                                         
                                         We have to record in the laundry room with a blanket.
                                         
                                         I literally waited in my car and I watched Katie leave with your parents like a psychopath.
                                         
                                         And the baby.
                                         
                                         And the baby.
                                         
                                         It felt like in The Sopranos when Tony has Carmella take his mom out so he could hide
                                         
                                         all his guns in the nursing home.
                                         
                                         I thought we were waiting for them to leave before we recorded.
                                         
    
                                         And I was calling Ben.
                                         
                                         I was waiting in my car too.
                                         
                                         We were like two fucking idiot FBI guys.
                                         
                                         It was like a stakeout. Like a stakeout. Yeah, that's exactly. I thought I was about to rob I was waiting in my car, too. We were like two fucking idiot FBI guys. It was like a stakeout.
                                         
                                         Like a stakeout.
                                         
                                         Yeah, that's exactly.
                                         
                                         I thought I was about to rob Ben to do a recording.
                                         
                                         And then I was like, finally, I'm like, oh, they're gone.
                                         
    
                                         He's just setting up.
                                         
                                         And then I walk up.
                                         
                                         I see my mom in the window waving at me.
                                         
                                         And I'm like, fuck.
                                         
                                         Like, I just got made.
                                         
                                         Like, I'm in Serpico and about to get shot in the back of the head.
                                         
                                         When they drove by, I literally did.
                                         
                                         I slouched under my seat like I'm in a movie.
                                         
    
                                         I didn't want her to stop and then be like,
                                         
                                         hey, what are you, you about to go say slurs?

                                         Now, we like all the slur talk.
                                         
                                         We don't like it when you say stuff about Israel.
                                         
                                         We like the racism.
                                         
                                         Can you just keep it without the curse words?

                                         and he goes, no.
                                         
                                         Has he held your kid yet?
                                         
                                         We made him hold the baby for like 30 seconds.
                                         
                                         And he was like, all right, I think I'm good.

                                         Dude, there was-
                                         
                                         Waiting for them to leave so you could go outside and say it.
                                         
                                         I know.
                                         
                                         Just so we could be our actual selves for two hours.
                                         
                                         So we could do our jobs.
                                         
                                         Because I tooklly back home and
                                         
                                         there were so many moments i swear to god staying with my parents where my dad would just be like
                                         
                                         yeah you know some of the kids were rambunctious but you know not jace because he had um you know
                                         
    
                                         he had real bad anxiety so if you just screamed at him a little bit he'd behave
                                         
                                         he's literally like the dad that's like oh you just shake him when he gets angry he just you
                                         
                                         know he just he really um feels the pressure of your approval.
                                         
                                         So if you just withhold that, he'll really do well.
                                         
                                         He's an anxious baby.
                                         
                                         Just shake him.
                                         
                                         I got, I shook him to sleep because he wasn't, he had that colic.
                                         
                                         I had to shake the colic out of him.
                                         
    
                                         We don't have the money for one of them damn fancy rockers.
                                         
                                         We got to shake them.

                                         for years.
                                         
                                         The reason we moved here is to do this.
                                         
                                         A decade of failure.
                                         
                                         A decade of failure and struggle to finally get rewarded.
                                         
                                         And because a couple
                                         
    
                                         goat fuckers lied about Jesus
                                         
                                         2,000 years ago,
                                         
                                         all of a sudden I can't talk
                                         
                                         to my parents about it.
                                         
                                         Dude, Ben texted us that
                                         
                                         right before I left, and I popped another beta
                                         
                                         blocker before I got out of the car.
                                         
                                         I popped two beta blockers,
                                         
    
                                         and I was just listening to the
                                         
                                         steel drum cover

                                         Bibble Fall. I was listening to that for an hour,
                                         
                                         and I was like, I'm grooving, dude.
                                         
                                         Looking for a balcony.
                                         
                                         It's so funny. It's like before Tiger plays 18
                                         
                                         now, the kind of regimen he's on.
                                         
    
                                         He has to go to the gym. He has to take horse tranquilizers.
                                         
                                         He has to take Vicodin.
                                         
                                         You're on the same regimen
                                         
                                         just to go see mom and dad.
                                         
                                         Just to be within 40 feet of them.
                                         
                                         Dude, it literally is like
                                         
                                         my body...
                                         
                                         You have like an epidural right now.
                                         
    
                                         Dude, I told Kelly, I was like, it's like my body is like a Geiger counter for my family.
                                         
                                         Your doctor's going to prescribe you fentanyl soon.
                                         
                                         Dude, it's like I'm approaching the elephant's foot at Chernobyl.
                                         
                                         I step out of the car and I just hear clicking noises.
                                         
                                         And I'm like, why does it feel like all my cells are dying?
                                         
                                         Dude, that's so depressing to be around.
                                         
                                         He's like a huge bummer.
                                         
                                         He flew out here to say he didn't want to fly out here.
                                         
    
                                         He told my mom, he goes, I'm never coming out here again.
                                         
                                         So he's just not going to be in his granddaughter's life at all.
                                         
                                         He doesn't care at all.
                                         
                                         Your baby was born one month ago.
                                         
                                         Yeah, he doesn't care at all.
                                         
                                         You know what he does all day here? What?
                                         
                                         You know where Emma lays on that
                                         
                                         big stone like a lizard over there?
                                         
    
                                         I swear to God, my dad
                                         
                                         strips down to his shorts, and then
                                         
                                         he lays down, and he'll
                                         
                                         go to sleep for three hours in the sun
                                         
                                         on a rock with no pillow.
                                         
                                         Yeah, we've told you my dad's favorite activity
                                         
                                         is getting burned.
                                         
                                         Yeah.

                                         like Pauly Walnuts, and just let the sun just try to kill him.
                                         
                                         That's classic, just fucked up dad stuff.
                                         
                                         My dad used to sleep in a denim jacket on the floor
                                         
                                         in the living room.
                                         
                                         I would come home just to be miserable on purpose.
                                         
                                         Yeah.

                                         I used to open the door and it would hit his head. I. I used to open the door and it would hit his head.
                                         
                                         I'd come home and open the door and it would hit his head.
                                         
                                         He would be sleeping on the carpet on the ground in front of the front door.
                                         
                                         Is your dad's head, he's like in a Springsteen album or something?
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         He would have full Doc Martens on, tied, just bundled up on the floor in jeans.
                                         
                                         It's amazing he wasn't even a drunk, and yet he kind of lived like one.
                                         
                                         He was constantly getting bilked for money.
                                         
    
                                         He was sleeping on the floor.
                                         
                                         He would go and make a weird creation meal
                                         
                                         with whatever he found in the fridge.
                                         
                                         He made a famous bowl at home.
                                         
                                         Like a vegan hot dog, and there was a peach,
                                         
                                         and then some black beans,
                                         
                                         and he'd put it all in a lettuce wrap
                                         
                                         and he'd eat that and then he would pass out on the floor.
                                         
    
                                         Was it even like a cool...
                                         
                                         He was like a loser.
                                         
                                         I was just like, just be a loser that watches football
                                         
                                         with me and gets fucked up. Instead you're
                                         
                                         drinking smoothies and passing out
                                         
                                         on the ground. Creating your own punk
                                         
                                         flop house for some reason.
                                         
                                         It might be for the best that your dad doesn't want to be
                                         
    
                                         in your kid's life.
                                         
                                         So here's the interesting thing I kind of figured
                                         
                                         out about him. What? Is he constantly says
                                         
                                         he's like, he goes, I'm easy.
                                         
                                         He goes, whatever's good with me.
                                         
                                         And you go, okay, well I'm just going to order
                                         
                                         Mediterranean food and he'll be like, oh, I won't
                                         
                                         eat that.
                                         
    
                                         I'm not going to eat that.
                                         
                                         This is what I realized. For the past
                                         
                                         35 years, mom has babied him
                                         
                                         and given him exactly what he wants.
                                         
                                         And so he thinks, because he's gotten everything he wants every second of the day,
                                         
                                         he thinks his needs are easy to meet.
                                         
                                         Making this guy a cup of coffee, it takes me 20 minutes until I get it exactly how he wants.
                                         
                                         But when you ask him if he'd like a cup of coffee, he says yes. And you go,
                                         
    
                                         what kind of coffee would you like? And he goes,
                                         
                                         oh, I'm easy. Just anything. And then you
                                         
                                         hand him something and he hates it.
                                         
                                         And then you have to redo it. He calls you a fag and
                                         
                                         hits it out of your hand.
                                         
                                         By the way, why does he pour half of a jar
                                         
                                         of honey in every cup of coffee?
                                         
                                         What is with that? I think that is an Avery
                                         
    
                                         genetics thing because you are part hummingbird
                                         
                                         so that makes sense.
                                         
                                         You brought out like six sodas just so you could record.
                                         
                                         Our brains are like diesel engines for depression, so they need diesel fuel to run, which is just honey for him.
                                         
                                         Oh, so I know the real story about how, and I think this is why you really fucked up. Yeah, what happened to me?
                                         
                                         Tell me another one.
                                         
                                         I actually didn't want to tell you this because I thought it might alter you
                                         
                                         for like eight months. It's okay. I have
                                         
    
                                         two babies. Was I molested?
                                         
                                         Is this what the story is? Dude, I don't know.
                                         
                                         Mom and dad told me they said
                                         
                                         that mom
                                         
                                         went back to work immediately once they had
                                         
                                         you. Yeah. And you're the oldest child
                                         
                                         for context for everybody. He was the first.
                                         
                                         I guess
                                         
    
                                         mom had like maybe postpartum depression
                                         
                                         or something. She tried to kill me.
                                         
                                         She walked
                                         
                                         into the ocean with me strapped to her chest.
                                         
                                         In a microwave.
                                         
                                         She was sleeping in the oven
                                         
                                         for a few months just hoping.
                                         
                                         Yeah, I was killed like
                                         
    
                                         Dear Zachary just walking into
                                         
                                         Nova Scotia's ocean.
                                         
                                         Big rocks and waves pounding me.
                                         
                                         Dude, they told me that within two weeks, mom went back to work, which is insane, but that's just who she is.
                                         
                                         I love mom to death.
                                         
                                         We've been having a great time together.
                                         
                                         She's been a massive help here.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
    
                                         They dropped you off at a fake daycare.

                                         And dad said, and I quote, every time I went, he was crying and screaming behind the closed door.
                                         
                                         And when I would, I would want to go in and say hi to him and comfort him.
                                         
                                         And she said, no, you're not.
                                         
                                         You don't go in there.
                                         
                                         Let him cry it out.
                                         
                                         Jesus Christ.
                                         
                                         That was the story.
                                         
                                         God.
                                         
    
                                         And after they told me that, I was looking around the room like, what the fuck?
                                         
                                         What the fuck?
                                         
                                         Why did you tell me that?
                                         
                                         And they told it to me like it wasn't a big deal.
                                         
                                         I have no memory of that, so now I know I might have been fucked as a baby.
                                         
                                         So that's fine.
                                         
                                         Well, what was behind that closed door?
                                         
                                         I don't know.
                                         
    
                                         The fucking spaghetti monster?
                                         
                                         Do you think we messed up Jace when we dropped him off at Stephen Avery's junkyard for the first two weeks of his life?
                                         
                                         Remember how Jace was raised by that pedophile junkyard dog?
                                         
                                         Remember when he was involved in a murder two weeks into his life?
                                         
                                         He was an accessory.
                                         
                                         Remember when that weird guy in the junkyard asked him for help to move a body when he was an infant?
                                         
                                         And Chase just wanted to watch WrestleMania, and the detectives manipulated him into confessing due to WrestleMania.
                                         
                                         You admit to a crime two weeks in.
                                         
    
                                         Two weeks into what?
                                         
                                         Because I'm just like, WrestleMania, I did it.
                                         
                                         That is really fucked up.
                                         
                                         I promised myself I would never tell you that, but then they went and just told you.
                                         
                                         Unless it's being broadcasted to everybody we know.
                                         
                                         No, but then they actually just went and told you,
                                         
                                         so I just told you the actual story.
                                         
                                         You have the right to know that they've...
                                         
    
                                         Okay, well, that's actually really fucked up
                                         
                                         and really actually makes me feel better
                                         
                                         about having panic attacks every waking second of my life.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Yeah, that's been the crazy thing.
                                         
                                         It's like I've been on beta blockers for like two weeks,
                                         
                                         and I was like, I feel really good, and then I was like, oh, I's been the crazy thing. It's like I've been on beta blockers for like two weeks. And I was like, I feel really good.
                                         
                                         And I was like, oh, I've been my body's been pumping adrenaline for 33 years.
                                         
    
                                         I didn't realize that.
                                         
                                         That explains a lot.
                                         
                                         I was a month old and getting the shit beat out of me.
                                         
                                         And God damn it.
                                         
                                         Fuck.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         I have like a fucking like black hood childhood.
                                         
                                         Dude, I had like a fucking like black hood childhood.
                                         
    
                                         Jesus Christ.
                                         
                                         I had like fucking big lurch putting hangers out on me when he was smoking crack as a baby.
                                         
                                         I mean, this is like, dude, my entire life I've just been crying all the time.
                                         
                                         I've been having panic attacks. Yeah, the first two months of your life you didn't receive any of the nurturing or care that an infant needs.
                                         
                                         Jesus Christ.
                                         
                                         God damn it.
                                         
                                         That's why when you sit on the couch you feel like you're about to go skydiving
                                         
                                         every waking minute.
                                         
    
                                         That's why when I have to reschedule
                                         
                                         because my girlfriend's sick,
                                         
                                         I'm convinced everybody hates me
                                         
                                         and is never going to talk to me ever again.
                                         
                                         But it's just because I was molested.
                                         
                                         You might have been the only kid that was fucked, actually.
                                         
                                         I might have been molested by children.
                                         
                                         Well, at least he has no memory of it.
                                         
    
                                         Well, at least he blocked it out.
                                         
                                         At least it manifested into other ways that slowly ruined him.
                                         
                                         Well, at least he has no memories before the age of 12, which is true.
                                         
                                         God, dude, they're real.
                                         
                                         Fuck, dude.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         That's really insane, man.
                                         
                                         I'm glad I have these glasses on because I am just crying behind these.
                                         
    
                                         I look like the Michael Jordan behind these.
                                         
                                         Yeah, this is already maybe the most intense episode we've ever done.
                                         
                                         But it's a beautiful day out there.
                                         
                                         It's a beautiful day.
                                         
                                         What is it, 73 degrees?
                                         
                                         Dave, that's nice.
                                         
                                         It feels like you never got molested.
                                         
                                         I was holding the baby in the kitchen, and Dad looked at me.
                                         
    
                                         He goes, man, when y'all were little, he goes, all I was thinking was, man, I can't wait for them to grow up and get out of here.
                                         
                                         And he goes, and then one day you were all gone, and I was like, no, come back.
                                         
                                         Where'd they all go?
                                         
                                         Jesus Christ.
                                         
                                         And it, like, wasn't a sad moment for him.
                                         
                                         And I'm rocking my baby like, uh-huh, uh-huh.
                                         
                                         You want me to make you another latte?
                                         
                                         I got a new espresso machine.
                                         
    
                                         You want me to make, have you had a Cortada?
                                         
                                         A Cortada.
                                         
                                         Now, a Cortada is very expensive at the coffee shop, but I figured out how to make it at home.
                                         
                                         Dude, he has no fun.
                                         
                                         He hasn't smiled this entire, actually he does can I tell you? Actually, he does.
                                         
                                         He gets really giddy when I say a very hard slur.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Really?
                                         
    
                                         Yes, in the living room.
                                         
                                         That's how I entertain him, is I just say the most racist thing imaginable.
                                         
                                         But it has to be directed at a group of people, right?
                                         
                                         It can't be in general.
                                         
                                         You can't just say fuck.
                                         
                                         No, no, no.
                                         
                                         He's like, listen.
                                         
                                         No, no, no.
                                         
    
                                         No, I can't say that around him.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         But I can say any slur I want.
                                         
                                         You can say hard, yeah.
                                         
                                         It's not fuck.
                                         
                                         It's not fuck. It's.
                                         
                                         Yeah, dude.
                                         
                                         It's.
                                         
    
                                         We got to.
                                         
                                         He brought up Israel and he's anti-Israel.
                                         
                                         So we got to like shit on Biden about Israel.
                                         
                                         But he's only anti-Israel because he hates Jews.
                                         
                                         Well, yeah, exactly.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         He goes, listen, I'm all for killing Muslims.
                                         
                                         I do have a.
                                         
    
                                         I'm a lefty. I'm a lefty.
                                         
                                         I'm a lefty.
                                         
                                         I do want to kill Muslims, but I hate Jews getting money.
                                         
                                         Call me a comic cuck, but I want to nuke Israel.
                                         
                                         I'm a cuck like that.
                                         
                                         Listen, I'm pro-genocide anti-Jew.
                                         
                                         That's been my stance for, I'm a southern dog Democrat.
                                         
                                         That's what I am.
                                         
    
                                         No, but we got to Shambi, and it was like giving a dog with cancer peanut butter before you put it down.
                                         
                                         You just say, ugh.
                                         
                                         Just tonguing at it, not knowing there's cyanide inside of it.
                                         
                                         Cyanide and ricin.
                                         
                                         You know what my mom said, by the way?
                                         
                                         I love my mom, but her mind always goes to the darkest places. lives in darkness sure yeah being around my father they live in the hellraiser dimension they uh mom was holding the baby for the first time and she goes you know i was watching a

                                         their baby and posting them on the Internet.
                                         
                                         And pedophiles were taking the pictures and then taking their faces and making them into sex dolls.
                                         
                                         And then they would do sex crimes with the dolls and then kidnap the kids and have the kids with the sex dolls.

                                         Looking at your baby, she goes, you're not going to be a little sex doll,

                                         Within 60 seconds, I'm not making that up.
                                         
                                         Yeah, he, you know, I walked in
                                         
                                         and we visited him for, like, four days.
                                         
                                         And, you know, you walk in, you're like, hey, this is, you know, the love of my life.
                                         
    
                                         I'm so glad I met her.
                                         
                                         And he's like, hey, how's it going?
                                         
                                         He goes, this woman saved me from the darkest pits of hell.
                                         
                                         And he's like, all right, cool, whatever.
                                         
                                         And then he was, like, just bummed out.
                                         
                                         And then we went to my aunt's place,
                                         
                                         and she brought up Yellowstone,
                                         
                                         and he lit up like I haven't seen him light up in 20 years just talking.
                                         
    
                                         He told us a whole episode of Yellowstone start to finish.
                                         
                                         Yeah, that's what they do.
                                         
                                         That's what starts to happen.
                                         
                                         He was literally like, so the redheaded girl,
                                         
                                         and she's a real mean lady,
                                         
                                         but she's a tomboy.
                                         
                                         That's how she was raised,
                                         
                                         and I was just like

                                         It'd be so much better.
                                         
                                         Yeah. Yeah, it's fucked.
                                         
                                         Out loud to no one, he goes,
                                         
                                         he goes, I only had two and a half
                                         
                                         slices of pizza.
                                         
                                         And then no one said anything. He goes, is that good?
                                         
    
                                         Is that good that I only had two and a half?
                                         
                                         And I looked at him and I go, what do you need?
                                         
                                         Like a blue ribbon or something? That you only had two and a half? And I looked at him and I go, what do you need? Like a blue ribbon or something?
                                         
                                         That you only had two and a half slices?
                                         
                                         We all have to be proud of you or something?
                                         
                                         He goes, okay, okay, okay.
                                         
                                         And I started ripping into him.
                                         
                                         I'm like, why do you?
                                         
    
                                         I go, why can't you just be proud of yourself?
                                         
                                         That you restricted yourself to two and a half slices?
                                         
                                         Why do you got to announce to everybody?
                                         
                                         Why do you need everybody to be proud of you?
                                         
                                         It just builds up, you sad sack piece of shit.
                                         
                                         You ruined our fucking lives.
                                         
                                         Because it turns into like a what about Bob.
                                         
                                         It turns into a what about Bob thing because out of nowhere, you have like a weird freak out of you, Seaman said.
                                         
    
                                         That happened like, dude, that happened like three years ago.
                                         
                                         I had long COVID and I was back and he begged me to go to the driving range.
                                         
                                         And I was like, I was like, fine.
                                         
                                         I was finally there.
                                         
                                         And he was like, yeah, I just pray you get in better shape.
                                         
                                         Because I just really, you know, I'm upset about your body.
                                         
                                         He's overweight, by the way.
                                         
                                         He doesn't think he is, though.
                                         
    
                                         No, he doesn't think he is.
                                         
                                         You can't make fun of him for that.
                                         
                                         He's very sensitive about it.
                                         
                                         He's taking all his body dysmorphia and placing it into every single person who ever loved him in his life.
                                         
                                         Like Captain Planet.
                                         
                                         He's displaced it amongst children.
                                         
                                         Did he say this pizza thing
                                         
                                         out of nowhere, by the way, real quick?
                                         
    
                                         You guys had just eaten pizza or was it like
                                         
                                         a long time ago?
                                         
                                         No, no, no. We had probably
                                         
                                         done eating 30 minutes. We were watching the
                                         
                                         Kansas City game. I thought it was like a weird form
                                         
                                         of dementia. He's out of nowhere. He's just like,
                                         
                                         I only had two slices of pizza. No one's
                                         
                                         eaten pizza. He's like, he's out of nowhere.
                                         
    
                                         Throughout the day, he's just like, I couldn't
                                         
                                         have helped the kids. They were in the other room.
                                         
                                         And you're like, what?
                                         
                                         Snap out of it.
                                         
                                         He's like, man, that Patrick Mahomes, I
                                         
                                         like him. His daddy, though, I'm not
                                         
                                         a fan. His daddy is too
                                         
                                         black for me.
                                         
    
                                         Apparently, that's why they stopped sleeping in the same bedroom,
                                         
                                         is because dad didn't want to take care of us,
                                         
                                         and mom had to keep getting up to feed us, change our diaper.
                                         
                                         My heart hurts the more you tell me.
                                         
                                         And then he was like, well, I'm just going to sleep on the couch the rest of my life.
                                         
                                         By the way, he's been sleeping on the couch.
                                         
                                         He refuses to sleep in the nice guest bed we have for him.
                                         
                                         He's sleeping on that.
                                         
    
                                         Lights completely on, TV blaring.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         By the way, you know, he just started watching.
                                         
                                         What?
                                         
                                         He actually started watching The Sopranos because three episodes are free on the plane.
                                         
                                         He explained to me that there's TVs on planes.
                                         
                                         And he goes, now that's hot.
                                         
                                         I love you, Dad. And he goes, I love your dad.
                                         
    
                                         I love your dad.
                                         
                                         He's watching The Sopranos in the living room all day
                                         
                                         and ignoring us.
                                         
                                         That's actually the best thing he's ever done.
                                         
                                         As I walk by, he's like,
                                         
                                         too many bad words.
                                         
                                         He goes, this show is evil.
                                         
                                         What they do in this show, they're evil.
                                         
    
                                         But watch, he's like in season 6B
                                         
                                         and he's like, man, Tony's done nothing
                                         
                                         wrong in his life. And he's actually not season six, B, and he's like, man, Tony's done nothing wrong in his life.
                                         
                                         And he's actually not depressed.
                                         
                                         He's just cool.
                                         
                                         They're evil people, but they did kill that queer.
                                         
                                         And that needed to happen.
                                         
                                         At least they framed those black people for murder.
                                         
    
                                         I did appreciate when they shoved a pool cue up that fat fag's ass.
                                         
                                         Oh.
                                         
                                         When we get to that scene, he's going to rise from the chair.
                                         
                                         Yeah.

                                         And it's sinful.
                                         
                                         So he's just going to give himself one season.
                                         
                                         He goes, this show's too damn violent.

                                         He goes, at first, Galatians chapter one, and then they took the children and put them
                                         
                                         in daycare where they were molested to death by the Philistines.
                                         
                                         Oh, fuck.

                                         She's been reading Blood Meridian.

                                         It's been really tough.
                                         
                                         It really is like the Addams Family type of thing.
                                         
                                         We're like, bad is good, good is bad.
                                         
                                         This is so weird.
                                         
                                         I drove around with my mom. We went to get pizza, and as soon as we got in the car, I're like, bad is good, good is bad. This is so weird. I drove around with my mom.
                                         
    
                                         We went to get pizza, and as soon as
                                         
                                         we got in the car, I was like, he sucks.
                                         
                                         I was like, he has no fun.
                                         
                                         No fun.

                                         I was like, swerving in and out of lanes.
                                         
                                         It was
                                         
                                         like, I was like, walking Phoenix at
                                         
    
                                         You Were Never Really Here.
                                         
                                         Like, when he's like, fading off of Vicodin and stuff.
                                         
                                         You're holding the steering wheel, but also a hammer.
                                         
                                         You don't know why.
                                         
                                         You just keep carrying a hammer around the house with you.
                                         
                                         Yeah, fantasizing about blowing your brains out at a diner.
                                         
                                         What does your mom say when you say that?
                                         
                                         She's like, I know, I know, I know, but you know how your father is.
                                         
    
                                         You know, he sucks.
                                         
                                         I know, I know.
                                         
                                         He looked dashing that one night 60 years ago.
                                         
                                         Well, what you got to understand is he could dunk.
                                         
                                         And that's it.

                                         Your dad's like John Stockton.
                                         
                                         He really is, yeah.
                                         
                                         He's more like Cara Malone, really.
                                         
                                         I've been trying so hard to make him have a good time.
                                         
                                         One night I couldn't sleep. I had not like, not like a panic attack, but like,
                                         
    
                                         man, I just kept circling the drain thinking about how miserable he was. And like, there's
                                         
                                         nothing I could do. And I realized that he doesn't, when I offer him a solution,
                                         
                                         he always pushes it away. And I realized that he doesn't want to be helped. He wants to feel bad
                                         
                                         about himself. And that's the end goal actually. Yeah. Yeah. Solving it is actually mean, you know?
                                         
                                         Oh, when you present solutions he's

                                         Pretty much.

                                         I ordered another drink.
                                         
                                         He walked out of the bar like Kaiser So Say
                                         
                                         at the end of The Usual Suspects.
                                         
                                         His face is untwisting, and he's remaining calm.
                                         
                                         He's like, God damn it, you've done it again.
                                         
                                         Devin's running out.
                                         
                                         He's like, where's the gay guy?

                                         So then I walk out of the bar, and I look for him.
                                         
                                         I had only waited like five minutes.
                                         
                                         He's gone.
                                         
                                         I asked the bouncer what happened.
                                         
                                         And she goes like, I don't know.
                                         
                                         I saw him get in a car and leave.
                                         
                                         I'm like, there's no way.
                                         
    
                                         I drove him.
                                         
                                         So then I'm driving around the neighborhood for like 20 minutes looking for him like a stray dog.
                                         
                                         And then he won't pick up his phone. think he blocked me you you see him i think he blocked me you're chasing him on the street and he every time you stop he stops and looks back at you
                                         
                                         and then you go to him he runs away wait did he really block you it it i called uh i texted him
                                         
                                         and it was blue and then i um texted one more after that and it went green.
                                         
                                         So I was like, I guess he turned his phone off.
                                         
                                         Yeah, you hope it's a turn your phone off.
                                         
                                         And then he walked four miles home at 2 a.m.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah, because of...
                                         
                                         Because of Trump.
                                         
                                         Because of Orange Man Bad.
                                         
                                         It's a very hilly area as well.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Not good on his old knees.
                                         
                                         Then he just texted me the next day an apology.
                                         
                                         And I was just like, it's fine, whatever.
                                         
    
                                         And then we hung out yesterday,
                                         
                                         no mention of it.
                                         
                                         Sure.
                                         
                                         He just got to move on.
                                         
                                         Those dad apologies
                                         
                                         where he's like,
                                         
                                         I got a little,
                                         
                                         too many cold ones, bud.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Too many bruises.
                                         
                                         That's why I stormed out
                                         
                                         on my only child.
                                         
                                         There's something,
                                         
                                         there's something about dads
                                         
                                         like worldwide

                                         There's kind of like a secret
                                         
                                         Like I hope it all falls apart
                                         
                                         Like they're like
                                         
                                         Even if they're like a good dad
                                         
                                         They'll be like
                                         
                                         I'm so happy for you
                                         
                                         Dreams are
                                         
                                         Yeah
                                         
    
                                         Dreams are coming true
                                         
                                         Mine didn't but yours are
                                         
                                         It's just like in a moment
                                         
                                         So they can just like
                                         
                                         Sweep everything off the table
                                         
                                         There's a subtle feeling of rage about it.
                                         
                                         I'm like, you think you're better than me?
                                         
                                         Yeah, it's that.
                                         
    
                                         It's because that worked for you.
                                         
                                         I love him to death.
                                         
                                         I really do.
                                         
                                         But I can't just hang out all day with Tommy Lee Jones at the end of No Country for Old Men,
                                         
                                         sitting at the breakfast table, talking about a dream about his dead dad.
                                         
                                         I don't even think he's Tommy Lee Jones.
                                         
                                         He's the guy that drinks out of the same pot
                                         
                                         of coffee for a month with all the cats.
                                         
    
                                         He's one of Uncle Ellis' cats.
                                         
                                         He actually said yesterday,
                                         
                                         he goes, I'm like that guy
                                         
                                         in A Country for Old Men. I just make a pot
                                         
                                         and I just microwave it throughout the week.
                                         
                                         I'm very proud of you.
                                         
                                         Good boy.
                                         
                                         He goes, I'm kind of like that guy in no country.
                                         
    
                                         I'm a warning towards people for how your life can slip you by.
                                         
                                         I'm a Shakespearean.
                                         
                                         I'm kind of like a big metaphor for untreated illness inside the brain.
                                         
                                         And kind of how a man, it's a metaphor for how a man becomes an island in his own life.
                                         
                                         I'm a cautionary character.
                                         
                                         I'm a cautionary tale, but it's too gay to even watch.
                                         
                                         It's like watching the zone of interest.
                                         
                                         You're like, it's sad, but like, God, this sucks.
                                         
    
                                         Oh, it's so depressing every time you guys talk about him.
                                         
                                         Yeah, I know.
                                         
                                         Dude, it depresses me.
                                         
                                         I seriously had to tell Kelly.
                                         
                                         I was like, okay, by the way, I might start acting insane for no reason.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         And I kind of do.
                                         
                                         You kind of just like revert a little bit.
                                         
    
                                         Dude, that's why you have the baby, though, because he does something shitty to you, and you just go hold the baby.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         And you just transfer all that go hold the baby. Yeah.
                                         
                                         And you just transfer all that into her.
                                         
                                         Yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                         So what I do is I go to my girlfriend, and I just slap her across the face.
                                         
                                         And I go, you bitch!

                                         I love him to death.
                                         
                                         You got it. I do.
                                         
                                         I do actually love him so much.
                                         
                                         No, of course you do. I do, too him so much. No, of course you do.

                                         It's just like that's what makes it tough, you know?
                                         
    
                                         Also, it's like, God, I wish he was just like the type of dad that just like beat up.
                                         
                                         Well, I guess he did actually hit us a lot.
                                         
                                         Yeah, no, he actually did do a lot of.
                                         
                                         We did experience ritualistic child abuse.
                                         
                                         I forgot he did punch me in the face on the golf course that one time.
                                         
                                         Yeah, he punched you in the face.
                                         
                                         Mom hit me in the head with a sunflower ring
                                         
                                         Ring shaped like a sunflower
                                         
    
                                         I probably got whipped
                                         
                                         Probably 300 times
                                         
                                         Because he didn't have a slave
                                         
                                         He wanted to live it out somehow

                                         I deserved my dad to punch me in the teeth.
                                         
    
                                         And then they're going to ask a dominatrix
                                         
                                         to bludgeon them so they can cum.

                                         And then they drunk drive their truck
                                         
                                         into a preschool.
                                         
                                         The thing is, I don't feel sorry for myself at all.
                                         
                                         And I actually have nothing but love for the guy.
                                         
    
                                         He's actually just taxing to be around.
                                         
                                         Where I'm like, what the fuck?
                                         
                                         That's the thing.
                                         
                                         I'm so drained being around him.
                                         
                                         I know exactly the feeling.

                                         It's like getting stuck in an elevator with a stranger, kind of.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         That's what it feels like.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         For, like, days.
                                         
                                         So he's, like, never once had fun, huh?
                                         
                                         No, man.
                                         
                                         Never once.
                                         
    
                                         I mean, that's why we started.
                                         
                                         I went so crazy because I didn't know how to have fun or talk to people or have friends.
                                         
                                         So I had to go a little crazy and then sort of rein it in because I didn't.
                                         
                                         I mean, that was the great thing about it.
                                         
                                         Without alcohol, man, I would have never learned how to have a good time.
                                         
                                         Alcohol taught me how to have fun.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         And how to, you know, that social lubricant to talk to people and hang out with them and have the guts to talk to girls.
                                         
    
                                         And I mean, I sucked at it, but at least I had the courage.
                                         
                                         It can help like break a barrier.
                                         
                                         Dude, without it, I would have, that was the bridge for me.
                                         
                                         The bridge from that world to this world was just,
                                         
                                         it was lined with bottles of booze.
                                         
                                         I wouldn't have got here without it.
                                         
                                         I'm thankful for it.
                                         
                                         And I might go back to it very soon.
                                         
    
                                         I appreciate it.
                                         
                                         I keep eyeing that whiskey that Devin leaves over.
                                         
                                         He leaves it on the kitchen counter
                                         
                                         and it looks very pretty the way the light strikes it.
                                         
                                         I love the way the light comes through the glass.
                                         
                                         I left it here on purpose.
                                         
                                         Devin was looking for the best lighting source
                                         
                                         throughout the kitchen.
                                         
    
                                         I got an espresso machine
                                         
                                         and I'm getting so into it, it's actually really worrying me.
                                         
                                         I'm like around the clock making coffee now.
                                         
                                         Like a barista.
                                         
                                         You get hyper obsessed with everything.
                                         
                                         But it also feels kind of like getting fucked up to me.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         Because I'm making all these different kind of like, it feels like cocktails almost.
                                         
    
                                         I'm like, ooh, what's a Cortado?
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Ooh, what's a short cappuccino?
                                         
                                         Ooh, what's a latte?
                                         
                                         It's got to get to the point where you're just pouring whiskey into these drinks.
                                         
                                         By day three, I made something called a Coke Aracano, which I make like a nitro cold brew
                                         
                                         at home, and then I pour a whole Coca-Cola in it.
                                         
                                         So it's like it's already getting close to just soda now.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Which is dangerous.
                                         
                                         You're turning into a Dunkin' Donuts.
                                         
                                         I was just thinking, if you got a soda stream,
                                         
                                         the wicked deeds you would do with a soda stream,
                                         
                                         the wicked things you would make.
                                         
                                         Dude, you'd be like a fat alchemist in there.
                                         
                                         A 12-year-old alchemist making wicked potions.
                                         
    
                                         Dude, I might have to throw it out soon.

                                         I get what you mean, except when they get too little, I feel like I can just step on
                                         
    
                                         them and feel them.
                                         
                                         Yeah, they're not really that real to me.

                                         He's like a billionaire, but I don't think he's
                                         
                                         a distinguished billionaire.
                                         
                                         He's a billionaire, but when he was making his most money, he was pitching storylines.
                                         
                                         He was like, what if I fuck my daughter on national TV?
                                         
    
                                         That was literally a storyline he pitched one time.
                                         
                                         I don't know.
                                         
                                         It sounded like your usual run-of-the-mill sex trafficking and locking somebody in rooms
                                         
                                         and shitting on their head.
                                         
                                         Your usual stuff.

                                         Apparently he shit on a woman's head during a threesome.
                                         
                                         Then he went to take a shower and the shit was still on her while she was
                                         
    
                                         getting fucked by another guy.
                                         
                                         And it was,
                                         
                                         and it was,
                                         
                                         and it was rolling down her,
                                         
                                         sliding down her back while getting railed.
                                         
                                         And then he goes,
                                         
                                         takes a shower.
                                         
                                         Cause I guess he's one of those guys that just doesn't wipe.
                                         
    
                                         He just goes,
                                         
                                         he showers right after he shits.
                                         
                                         And then, and then he comes back after the shower and then starts fucking her again while the shit is rolling down her back.
                                         
                                         Do you think when he walked out of the shower, he did that walk?
                                         
                                         He did the walk?
                                         
                                         Oh, yeah, he's doing the face.
                                         
                                         And then a lot of the text messages, he keeps referring to cumming as squirting, which is hilarious.
                                         
                                         I did see that.
                                         
    
                                         I can't wait.
                                         
                                         He's like saying like, me and all the boys want to squirt in your mouth.
                                         
                                         He was like making her like.
                                         
                                         Me and all the boys.
                                         
                                         Apparently he had names for his sex toys.
                                         
                                         Like every sex toy he would name after a wrestler.
                                         
                                         So he'd be like, I'm going to fuck you with Brock Lesnar tonight.
                                         
                                         And shove.
                                         
    
                                         Oh, yeah.

                                         It's very funny if you imagine him
                                         
                                         saying that in the Vince voice,
                                         
                                         by the way.
                                         
                                         And then he says,
                                         
                                         weigh up your pussy
                                         
                                         and weigh up your ass
                                         
                                         as far as they will go,
                                         
                                         but even farther.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         And she was-
                                         
                                         You just gotta stick it up your ass far.
                                         
                                         She was genuinely in pain and hurt.
                                         
                                         She was raped.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         A lot.
                                         
                                         And he goes, and the thickest cock goes down your throat, so it makes you gag and convulse
                                         
    
                                         as those big black cocks pound away.
                                         
                                         It feels like from the start you're being assaulted, but it's made you cum nonstop.
                                         
                                         Just one continuous constant orgasm.
                                         
                                         And just before you pass out, those big black dicks squirt their loads of cum inside you.
                                         
                                         As you lay on your stomach, the cum is coming out of all your holes.
                                         
                                         I'll turn you over and jack off all over you.
                                         
                                         Honestly, he's a pretty good erotic writer.
                                         
                                         It's kind of hot.
                                         
    
                                         I'm kind of hard right now, honestly.
                                         
                                         But what's so bad about that?
                                         
                                         If we were in the pool, I'd be jacking off under the bubbles right now.
                                         
                                         I don't know what's so bad about that, though.
                                         
                                         But then did it happen and she got raped by these guys?
                                         
                                         She was getting passed around.
                                         
                                         He was having her...
                                         
                                         He would make her go fuck other people.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah, he made Booker T call her the N-word.
                                         
                                         She got really upset.
                                         
                                         So what was she getting out of the whole deal?
                                         
                                         I have no idea.
                                         
                                         I think she was an employee or something.
                                         
                                         I don't know.
                                         
                                         He just rubbed her and hit her with a big chair in the head
                                         
                                         when he came.
                                         
    
                                         So here's the predicament right now.
                                         
                                         My dad just texted me.
                                         
                                         He said, Katie said the cleaning lady was locked out of the laundry room.
                                         
                                         Yeah, that's what I tried to.
                                         
                                         The cleaning lady is inside the house right now,
                                         
                                         hearing everything we're saying, by the way.
                                         
                                         She can't speak a word in English.
                                         
                                         It's fine.
                                         
    
                                         We didn't say anything in spanish it's fine i was hoping so badly that we'd be recording this awful podcast and then she'd like be walking through cleaning in the background yeah what
                                         
                                         do you think she thinks is going on out here right now looking out the window as she's cleaning my
                                         
                                         home i think she goes oh it's the white yoga. I think she can't.
                                         
                                         It's like when we see an Aztec ritual
                                         
                                         where they're all dressed like birds and dancing.
                                         
                                         That's what's happening in her mind,
                                         
                                         but for white people.
                                         
                                         It's a rain dance.
                                         
    
                                         It's a white rain dance.
                                         
                                         We're prying to a sun god.
                                         
                                         We're in our natural habitat.
                                         
                                         The three whites, they take the microphones
                                         
                                         and they say offensive things.
                                         
                                         They go up in the temple and they make content for the god.
                                         
                                         I guess you guys got to hold it down real quick while I break down the laundry room door so she can keep cleaning my sheets.
                                         
                                         I think it's just stuck because there's a thing behind it that got stuck in the door.
                                         
    
                                         I'll figure it out.
                                         
                                         She's got to open it.
                                         
                                         I'll figure it out.
                                         
                                         I couldn't get in there.
                                         
                                         She's very small.
                                         
                                         She has no leverage.
                                         
                                         Okay.
                                         
                                         You should fire her.
                                         
    
                                         I'm thinking about it.
                                         
                                         By the way, I'm thinking about getting rid of that copy of Mein Kampf because I came in this morning.
                                         
                                         It's bad vibes.
                                         
                                         I came into my office in the morning.
                                         
                                         He keeps distracting you from writing.
                                         
                                         You keep being like, okay, just one chapter.
                                         
                                         One more.
                                         
                                         Just one more.
                                         
    
                                         She goes, I love this book.
                                         
                                         I saw her.
                                         
                                         She was dusting my desk.
                                         
                                         She was dusting my copy of Mein Kampf.
                                         
                                         I'm like, this can't be my life.
                                         
                                         This woman from El Salvador dusting off my Nazi copy of Mein Kampf.
                                         
                                         To be fair, you're probably one of her least Nazi clients.
                                         
                                         Juanita, did you clean my Nazi china?
                                         
    
                                         Did you steal my big helmet with a spike on top of it?
                                         
                                         Now that Nazi dagger is not dishwasher safe and cleaned only.
                                         
                                         I'm imagining you laying next to Katie at night
                                         
                                         and you've got the blankets over your head with the
                                         
                                         flashlight and you're reading Mein Kampf
                                         
                                         secretly.
                                         
                                         Yeah, smoking like Hitler's pipe.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
    
                                         You dress like a big Kaiser. You have a big fake mustache
                                         
                                         on.
                                         
                                         We got ten minutes left. Can you guys hold down the fort real quick
                                         
                                         while I break down the door for her?
                                         
                                         She can't wait 10 minutes?
                                         
                                         I guess maybe we'll just go another 10.
                                         
                                         Well, Katie's texting me now.
                                         
                                         Oh.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah, Dora keeps calling them.
                                         
                                         She says she's locked out of the laundry room.
                                         
                                         All right.
                                         
                                         I mean, Jesus, go help.
                                         
                                         All right, go help.
                                         
                                         Go help.
                                         
                                         Well, I could just do what I always do and pretend I didn't receive the text.
                                         
                                         Yeah, put it down.
                                         
    
                                         Now that you are saying it into a mic.
                                         
                                         Yeah, you do have evidence of this.
                                         
                                         There is evidence.
                                         
                                         Plus, this episode is going to drop
                                         
                                         while our parents are still here,
                                         
                                         so this could be very fortuitous.
                                         
                                         Fuck her.

                                         And then she went on stage.

                                         It was bizarre being around some people last night in the comedy world that don't.
                                         
                                         I don't know how you can do that.
                                         
                                         Well, drinking.
                                         
                                         I didn't expect to see them, really.
                                         
                                         But it was fine.
                                         
                                         But it is.
                                         
    
                                         I was having that same feeling of like, shit, yeah, I really do a totally separate thing.
                                         
                                         I can't even
                                         
                                         speak normally around most people no yeah i said retarded and and and i was it was like i said the
                                         
                                         n-word no people truly act like you're a freak or something yeah it feels like being like uh
                                         
                                         not religious in the 1500s or something like you're like blasphemous yeah yeah yeah it was
                                         
                                         one of those rooms where people
                                         
                                         were literally talking about how you can't go to this uh one bar because they're uh trump supporters
                                         
                                         the people that own it yeah the vietnamese people that own this bar and these these white people
                                         
    
                                         and so if like we're talking about how we can't support this immigrant owned business because
                                         
                                         they like trump i know god forbid you go you know, immigrants like Trump. There's a lot
                                         
                                         of secret conservatives in LA,
                                         
                                         but I can't say that. You know, some people work
                                         
                                         for a living and they really hate paying all those taxes.
                                         
                                         Maybe they don't.
                                         
                                         Not a fan of Biden so much.
                                         
                                         No, that's like happening with like
                                         
    
                                         with my girlfriend's friends. They were like
                                         
                                         I was like wanting to go to Starbucks.
                                         
                                         We can't because they support Israel.
                                         
                                         I'm like,
                                         
                                         are we really doing that? Yeah they support Israel. I'm like,
                                         
                                         are we really doing that?
                                         
                                         Yeah, I know. It's like that type of thing.
                                         
                                         We have to be like, okay.
                                         
    
                                         That's charade.

                                         Israel's like, oh, Starbucks is losing profit.
                                         
                                         We'll stop bombing. We'll stop blowing up children's schools.
                                         
                                         Throw away your phone.
                                         
                                         Child slaves. What are we doing?

                                         Anytime I go to Target and my girlfriend's sick, the last five days I've just been getting
                                         
    
                                         Starbucks nonstop.
                                         
                                         I love Starbucks.
                                         
                                         I love when people boycott a place because of some bullshit political thing because there's
                                         
                                         not as many lines and I just go a lot.
                                         
                                         I always go when they're hated.
                                         
                                         Yeah, there's a guy who buys, I saw he started a stock thing where he buys stocks
                                         
                                         after Republicans start protesting.
                                         
                                         Like, he bought Bud White during the Kid Rock dip,
                                         
    
                                         and then he sells it, like, three weeks later
                                         
                                         when everybody forgets
                                         
                                         and makes, like, a really good profit off of it.
                                         
                                         He's just been doing that.
                                         
                                         Yeah.

                                         about how Dylan Mulvaney's getting into stand-up.

                                         I know, but the knob literally won't turn.
                                         
                                         So either you shit, you either shit and it already was locked
                                         
                                         because my dad's a retard and already had it turned up.
                                         
                                         Either way, her purse, her phone, and all the work she needs to do
                                         
                                         is inside that laundry room.
                                         
    
                                         She can't get in?
                                         
                                         I did the Mike Ehrmantraut thing where I had the paper clip
                                         
                                         and I put it through the hole.
                                         
                                         That wasn't working.
                                         
                                         And then I got the drill and I took
                                         
                                         off the knob completely and that's not
                                         
                                         working and my hands are covered in black
                                         
                                         grease now and I told her I don't fucking know
                                         
    
                                         and I can't back out.
                                         
                                         Oh, you didn't get it open.
                                         
                                         So you didn't help. No, no, she's just sitting in there.
                                         
                                         So all her stuff is locked in the bathroom
                                         
                                         that I took a huge shit out of. Yeah, none of the work that she can
                                         
                                         do today is, and it's just the
                                         
                                         door's locked and I can't get the thing off. I didn't lock the fucking There's a huge shit. Yeah, none of the work that she can do today is, and it's just the door's locked and I can't get the thing off.
                                         
                                         I didn't lock the fucking, there's a thing stuck.
                                         
    
                                         Listen, nobody's blaming anybody.
                                         
                                         We're going to have to kick down the door.
                                         
                                         The thing can be stuck, but explain why the knob doesn't turn.
                                         
                                         I don't know.
                                         
                                         I didn't lock.
                                         
                                         You think I was so embarrassed by the shit,
                                         
                                         I locked it and then closed the door behind me?
                                         
                                         You don't want anybody to go in?
                                         
    
                                         I don't want anyone to ever go in.
                                         
                                         You weld the
                                         
                                         doorknob shut. Well, I might have made a mistake, it sounds
                                         
                                         like. Or you just took
                                         
                                         a shit and it already was turned up.
                                         
                                         It could have already been turned up.
                                         
                                         The door wasn't. I technically took a shit with
                                         
                                         the door ajar. Yeah, so it was probably
                                         
    
                                         already turned up and then you pulled it closed
                                         
                                         out of deep, deep shame.
                                         
                                         Yeah, I pulled it closed because that's what you do when you take a massive shit in somebody's place.
                                         
                                         But of course, this is...
                                         
                                         I don't know what you guys are up to with these doors.
                                         
                                         Why are the locks up but not...
                                         
                                         This is what the fans complained about because this is the baby's fault.
                                         
                                         Jace got bronchitis and his girlfriend got bronchitis.
                                         
    
                                         I did not get bronchitis.
                                         
                                         My girlfriend currently is dying of bronchitis.
                                         
                                         I had diarrhea really bad and was throwing up for four hours four hours right so we can't record inside and recording we're recording
                                         
                                         like eight hours before this episode has to go out yeah we're recording like monday during the day
                                         
                                         yeah so we try to delay as much as possible and we're recording outside we're recording early
                                         
                                         devon as you guys know it takes a huge shit two hours early if you give my baby bronchitis and
                                         
                                         it goes to the nicu i'll literally kill you and your girlfriend I literally have not stepped inside
                                         
                                         I know but that's why we're not recording inside
                                         
    
                                         No and I'm well aware of that
                                         
                                         I get it
                                         
                                         So I guess the baby is ruining the whole show
                                         
                                         It is
                                         
                                         I guess this is the final episode
                                         
                                         Of Lemon Party

                                         It's awful.
                                         
                                         Yeah, no, it happened.
                                         
                                         It happened and it's bad.
                                         
                                         And they should get to kill babies whenever they want to build apartments.
                                         
    
                                         He took the dog's house.

                                         I was watching an episode of Guy's Grocery Games.
                                         
                                         It was like from five years ago.
                                         
                                         It's so funny to go from that to Guy's Grocery Games.
                                         
                                         No, no, no.
                                         
                                         It's going full circle.
                                         
                                         Guy's in Israel baking for him.
                                         
    
                                         One of the contestants came out.
                                         
                                         He goes, I'm a commander in the IDF, and that's why I'm going to play for them today.
                                         
                                         And then he just made a grilled cheese sandwich and lost in the first round.
                                         
                                         I swear to God, he made a grilled cheese sandwich that they said was bad.
                                         
                                         And then he was like, he's a commander in the Israeli army.
                                         
                                         Was he even faking the whole Middle Eastern thing?

                                         I mean, if you just let it fly around him.
                                         
                                         Do a lot of F.
                                         
    
                                         A lot of F.
                                         
                                         He loves F.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         If you call someone an F, he loves it.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         And drop a little.
                                         
                                         He goes, it's not F and N word.
                                         
                                         It's N word.
                                         
    
                                         He loves B-side slurs.
                                         
                                         B-side slurs?
                                         
                                         B-side slurs.
                                         
                                         If you slip in a slur for a certain race that he probably hasn't heard
                                         
                                         in 20 years, he's like, ooh.
                                         
                                         I forgot about this one.
                                         
                                         Oh my god, he called a Greek a dynamonkey.
                                         
                                         There we go.
                                         
    
                                         He's like, ooh, I forgot about Big Star.
                                         
                                         They had that great album.
                                         
                                         Anyway, let's end this
                                         
                                         because we've got to do the other app. Yeah. Out in the west Texas town of El Paso
                                         
                                         I fell in love with a Mexican girl
                                         
                                         Nighttime would find me in Rose's Cantina
                                         
                                         Music would play and Paulina would whirl
                                         
                                         Blacker than night were the eyes of Paulina
                                         
    
                                         Wicked and evil while casting a spell
                                         
                                         My love was deep for this Mexican maid
                                         
                                         I was in love but in vain I could tell
                                         
                                         One night a wild young cowboy came in.
                                         
                                         Wild as the West Texas wind.
