Hey, what's going on? It's Bill Burr and it's time for the Monday Morning Podcast for Monday, July 14th. What's going on? How are ya? How's it going? Jesus Christ. I don't want to fucking do this. I don't what the I don't have anything of significance to talk about
throughout the entire history of this podcast.
I'm staying at the airport.
I'm at the fucking airport.
You know what's funny is whenever you stay at the,
like whenever I stay at a hotel at the airport
Or whenever I see a hotel at the airport I go
That's the way to fucking do it
So then the stress of making your flight is gone
Because you just grab your bags
You go downstairs and then you're at the airport.
There's no travel.
We get it, Bill.
You're staying at the airport.
All right, you know, trying to paint a picture.
It is a little jarring, though, to wake up,
go down to the waffle maker, you know,
half asleep, trying to remember if you flipped it over.
You know that waffle one, you know, you pour it, you know,
and then you got to like halfway through it,
you got to flip it over.
Is that right? Do you have to do that?
The whole thing's hot.
Why would you flip it over?
I don't know, these are just fucking vague memories coming back
Like when I used to do college gigs, I'm not a college gig can forever I'd love to do a college gig
I
Haven't done one and fucking forever. I remember one of the luxuries
I haven't done one in fucking forever. I remember one of the luxuries
back in the day when I would do a college gig in the middle of fucking nowhere is
When when I went to check in and that sad under furnished lobby of
Whatever fucking best Western super 8 you know you know the minimalist hotel chains Motel 6 no one ever had the courage to go below 6 if you notice that
super 8 Motel 6 and everybody sat there for a second. Are they going to do it? Are they going to do it?
Are they going to go Motor Lodge 4?
No one ever had the courage to go that low.
So you'd go in there,
and if they had a fucking waffle maker,
like everybody that checked in,
that was your beacon of light.
That was the way out of the tunnel
I mean they had a fucking carpet
In those hotels that was like worse than the astroturf at veteran veteran stadium
In philadelphia back in the day. That's all used to hear about like it was basically playing in a fucking parking lot
And the amount of people that came in there hammered back in the day, that's all I used to hear about. Like it was basically playing in a fucking parking lot.
And the amount of people that came in there, hammered,
carrying like a half fucking full case of like
Natty Light or whatever fucking
piss they were drinking that night,
to take the edge off of whatever they did in the parking lot
or down the road
at some bar
That had the heads of animals with antlers on it, right?
You're going to those fucking places
Hunters You know, then you gotta have the stupid heads of the fucking thing. It's like oh, did you kill that?
Well, yeah, you had a gun it didn't
You shot an unarmed deer, you fucking cunt.
All right, go go make your venison sandwich.
You don't got to make a mockery of the thing.
Look what I did.
It's like, Jesus Christ, dude, get a fucking opening line.
Learn not to hit on a woman.
Got to put some fucking beaver head up on the goddamn wall.
The fuck is, act like you've been there.
Oh, did you shoot that varmint?
Well, that's amazing.
Did you just one shot?
Or did you have to shoot a couple of times, you cunt?
You got a fucking scope on it?
It's got one of those little fucking red things?
I mean, how much more advantage do you need?
You dress like grass in a shrub?
Of course it didn't see you.
Walked right up to it and you shot it right in the fucking face.
Fantastic.
You know how to do that.
That's a great skill.
It is a great skill if for some reason
the supermarkets run out of food.
That's a fantastic fucking skill and I respect it.
But you don't gotta put the fucking head on the wall.
I respect fishermen more.
Cause they going out to sea, right?
What do they have? They're not out there fucking shooting
the fish going come here cake cake then out there fucking dressed like water you
know they're not fucking shooting depth charges off the back of the boat they've They got a fucking rod and reel. Old school. I mean, they do have a fish finder.
Let's be honest.
And so many of them go around calling people
fucking snowflakes.
It's like, what about all your fucking...
You got more shit to help you kill that fucking thing
than fucking golfers.
You ever go on then fucking golfers,
you ever go on a fucking golf course,
those fucking assholes,
they got a scope too.
Like they got to shoot something.
Here's the thing too, I'm not going peter here.
I'm not saying that you shouldn't shoot an unarmed animal
if you want to go make yourself a fucking, you know,
badger, slider, whatever the fuck it is you want to
do.
I think it's fantastic that you know how to do that.
That you know how to, you know, put deer urine behind your ear.
Like how many more fucking advantages do you need with your little stupid fucking collapsible
tree house that you put up there and you fucking sit there with your dumb fucking duck boots on.
Ever seen those fucking boots? You can literally walk into a river and your feet
don't get wet. It's like, what are we doing here? Back in the day, I mean,
there's this shit you had to go through. I still think like at the end of the day, I mean, there's this shit you had to go through.
I still think, like, at the end of the day, the bow and arrow is the way to go.
It just is.
It's quiet.
Doesn't make your ears ring afterwards.
I don't know.
Like if you're going to kill your neighbor, I mean a bow and arrow, who heard it?
Nobody.
You just wait every morning.
You know, you're sitting across the street, you're getting his tendencies down.
Every morning he comes out in his robe and slippers, walks all the way down to the end of the driveway to get the paper.
Nobody gets the paper anymore.
It's going to be hard to kill your neighbor.
Back in the day you didn't have to go in the person's house to kill your neighbor.
You just waited for him to come walking down with his alcoholic legs.
You know those skinny pasty fucking legs,
and then from the waist up you're shaped like a fucking keg of beer
All highball Harry coming down there him and his wife having have sex and fucking since the Nixon administration
Somehow they still stay together
both of them bleary-eyed
Him with the booze
Her with her quote knitting club that she goes to guys knit for a long time don't you honey pretty dolled up to go knit anyway
she comes down at the end of the driveway that stupid fucking robe
doesn't even go down to his knees.
You know, it's the old school male bathrobe.
You actually dress like a whore, you just didn't know it.
Right, you come down and they do that awful,
like bend at the waist as you fucking bend your knees
at the same time.
That awkward sort of like, I can't do a full squat
to get this piece of paper and I can't fully bend over to get the newspaper.
So I got to do like, I got to put the responsibility
on my knees and my lower back, 50-50, okay?
The knees, if you can get me down to here,
I can bend down the rest of the way and pick this up.
All right, and you're across the street going,
that's where I'm going to get him.
That's where I'm going to get him.
I'm going to get him right after he stands upright,
and he has to take that breath of, like,
all right, I did it.
I didn't faceplant, knock myself out.
That's when you get him right in the chest.
And he goes down right next to his fucking mercury maquis
You know, it's perfect
Will be perfect is right as you release the arrow the automatic sprinklers went on so it went
Right right as they turn on that shhhhhh, that's right when the fucking arrow is cutting through the wind. That's how you used to take out a
CEO back in the day and they blame it on these goddamn kids and no one knew that
it was an actually it was, it was a professional hit
from a jealous CEO across the street
that coveted whatever country, whatever shit brown, earth-toned fucking four-door sedan,
full-size V8 American car that that man was given by his company.
that that man was given by his company.
Anyway...
plowing ahead. I, uh, yeah, I'm in a fucking...
I am, like, beyond jet-lagged.
I'm still...
I had a fucking nightmare.
Last night, I was still doing
Glenn Gary, Glenn Ross.
I showed up really late.
I showed up so late, I said, let my understudy do it.
And they said, fine.
And then I thought, but wait a minute.
Then I'll miss a show.
I made a promise that I would not miss one show.
I made a promise that I would not miss one show. I made a promise to me, right?
And I go, no, no, no, fuck it.
I'll do it, I'll do it.
And it's like, you're on in five.
I go, don't worry about it, don't worry about it.
I ran downstairs to get dressed,
and for some reason, it was a completely different outfit.
It was very flamboyant.
Had this big silk, like Barney Miller, like level fat tie.
It was just a completely different suit.
And I was like, what the fuck?
Did we change what decade this thing is going on?
And then I was just asleep, and I didn't have the suit on.
I was asleep just fucking in a bed, you know,
T-shirt and underwears.
And then they came knocking on the door.
They're like, what the fuck are you doing?
They're, you know, the first scene's about to end,
you're on next.
And I was like, fuck, fuck, I can't find the suit.
They're like, what do you mean you can't find the suit?
And they had changed like a bunch of lines. And I was like, I don't
know these words. And I go, can you have my understudy do it? They go, we already sent
them home. I go, thank you, sent them home in the second act. Right? And I fucking woke
up in a panic. And I actually ran the lines. I still know them.
I'm surprised.
I thought I was going to mess up a few of them.
Just came right back.
Came right the fuck back.
Anyway, so I was on the Instagram there,
and I saw this black dude on there,
and he's going, you know what's fucked up is he goes,
I think he said Hitler killed a million white people,
and he's considered the most evil person on the planet.
And I'm like, he killed six million,
and that was just Jewish people.
For some reason, they don't count the others.
Like that dude was not stopping by the way either. It's so funny the amount of white people
that are like neo-Nazis and it's like,
dude he would have killed you too.
He would have killed you too.
He considered like all of the Slavic people,
like all of Eastern Europe,
he considered them mongrel races of white people.
Like that guy was not stopped.
And while simultaneously being one of the ugliest human beings
ever, I actually know a person like that.
One of the most racist people I've ever met,
slash one of the most ugliest looking people I've ever seen.
You want to be like, dude, it's not the world's fault that you're ugly.
All right?
Just you know, God didn't care enough to make you symmetrical.
I don't, it's like, it's not these other people's fault.
So he goes, Hitler killed one million people, which is fucking hilarious that he said that
because then he went on to talk about King Leopold, but Belgium
Which I never heard of
Evidently according to this guy he goes he killed 20 million black people in the Congo
And he's never even brought up
You know
And uh
so I was like alright, I to read up on this guy.
And it was funny to me that he didn't, like, as he's bitching about, they don't even know
how many fucking guys this guy killed, and then he doesn't know how many guys the other
guy killed.
It was like sort of accidental comedy.
And I just fucking read on this guy, and he just somehow decided out of the fucking blue that like whatever was
in the Congo belonged to him.
He just made these people dig it out of the ground and he made all of this fucking money
and if they didn't get enough rubber or whatever he would cut their fucking hands off.
I mean this is the shit that has been going on forever.
And all of these fucking billionaires, kings,
whatever they're called during that era,
they just fucking, they don't give a, all of it is,
you know, travel in the world, what you realize
is how beautiful it is how great people are and that there's plenty
For everybody
But there's this handful of psycho cunts that want it all for themselves while they're alive
And somehow they got us all looking at each other like we're the problem. It's like, dude, it's you.
And that's what the fuck they're doing it again.
They're doing it again with this illegal immigrants.
Like this is somehow going to make the working man's life better.
It isn't.
Your problem is not illegal immigrants.
It's the people you work for.
They don't want to pay you.
They want to pay you as little as possible.
They want to phase you out.
They want to move the factory to go find other people that they can pay even less.
It's the same fucking game over and over and over and over and over again.
And what do they do?
What do they do when you start bitching about, hey man, what the fuck? I'm working all month and I still can't make my rent.
It's the Mexicans, it's the Chinese, it's those people.
It's the people that don't look like you.
It's the people in another country
that you can't fucking talk to.
No motherfucker, it's you.
You fucking greedy cunt.
What kind of a fucking person could do that?
Kind of a fucking piece of shit.
Let me ask you this.
What kind of a thing makes that?
A loving God gives you our current leadership,
the most heartless fucking people?
You know, not saying that the other ones
haven't been heartless.
They're all fucking dirtbags.
It's just how the game is set up. It just gets shady. I'm not saying that the other ones haven't been heartless. They're all fucking dirtbags.
It's just how the game is set up.
It just gets shadier and shadier
the higher up the ladder you go
and it just weeds out all decent people.
And then anybody, like the buzzword in my country,
depending on where you're listening for,
is anytime anybody comes along as a leader
that wants to do something for the working man,
they're immediately labeled a communist,
racist, homophobe, anti-Semite, da da da da da da.
They try to fucking tar and feather him.
Because what?
He thinks the working man should be able to work
and fucking, all middle class people are asking,
like listen man, I don't have an idea for a business,
I don't wanna run a fucking business.
I'll come work for you, whatever your fucking dream is,
I'll help you make it happen,
just give me enough fucking money.
When my kids are all right, I can make my fucking rent,
I can go to a fucking game.
Have a couple of beers, Is that asking too much?
To them, it is.
This is where you make your point,
and then you say it again.
To them, it is.
Then you do a dramatic pause, and it's not a dramatic pause.
What it really is is you're searching for the words.
Anyway, so I did my gig in Abu Dhabi.
When I say Abu, you say Dhabi, Abu.
I went there and...
Went there with Bianca Cristofalo, man.
Oh my God, we had the best fucking time.
Just laughing our asses off like beyond fucking jet-lagged
You know, I was just getting used to fucking trying to get used to the time in England and then I flew further east
Chopped off another three hours. I
Fucking landed there and I didn't land there the pilot landed there
and I I fucking landed there. I didn't land there. The pilot landed there. And I couldn't sleep on the fucking plane.
And I got there. We got in the hotel about 8 in the morning,
and I went to sleep and woke up at 5 at night,
and I was just like, what the fuck?
I hate doing that.
I hate sleeping, like, that late,
and then have it, like, two hours later,
I'm on stage doing stand-up.
It's fucking weird.
It had only happened to me one time in the States,
and it was one of the greatest nights of my life,
but I was ashamed when I was on stage.
It was me, Verzi, and Bartnik,
and we were in Chicago playing the Chicago theater.
And we fucking went out to this club, The Liars Club,
and drank and listened to ACDC.
They were playing this music.
Like, I was fucking...
Wait, one of the...
Like, this was towards the end of my drinking.
I was one of the drunkest I'd ever been.
And I woke up at 5,
like, 5-something, 5-15.
And I was like, what the fuck?
I got a... I ordered room service.
And, like, within two hours of that, like...
And then I got eight, you know, whatever time it took.
But an hour...
But 90 minutes later, probably,
I was on stage at the Chicago Theater.
I was like, what?
The level of shame I felt when I was on stage,
I was just out there looking like,
these fucking people worked, they already worked.
They put on a show. They put on a show. The level of shame I felt when I was on stage, I was just out there looking like,
these fucking people worked, they already worked.
They put in a full fucking day.
Now I know that that happens every night anyways,
because I work nights and the people that come out
to see me generally speaking, they work during the day,
but there was just something about the fact
that they worked an entire day that I slept through.
And then I woke up and they came out to listen to me.
I should have been sitting in the crowd.
They should have all been on stage taking turns reading me
the riot act about how fucking irresponsible I was.
That's why wherever I was on the alcoholic spectrum,
never took root.
It was the shame, the fucking shame of it.
I was just like, I can't do this.
I cannot fucking do this.
Yeah, that was bad.
I was also supposed to go to this drum place
and rehearse these drums,
because I had to play with these I think
I was playing on a Dean Del Ray thing at the El Ray on Wilshire and I didn't
rehearse and then I showed up for fucking rehearsal and I sucked and then
I fucking got it together before the actual gig but it was it was bad it was
bad anyway I don even know what the fuck
I'm babbling about here.
Babbling.
Babbling.
All right, let's do some reads here.
I didn't even get it.
I didn't even get it.
No, no, fuck the reads for a second.
Hang on a second.
I fucking ended up going on stage in Abu Dhabi.
This is the second time I played there.
And the first time I played there,
I absolutely loved the crowd and the people.
I had such a good time.
So now I'm coming back the second time
and you're thinking like, all right,
sorry, been fighting off that yawn for 10 minutes.
Let's see, was that a fluke?
Did I just happen to have a good show?
Did I just happen to vibe with those people,
and now I'm going to come back, and then I'm going to see what the real deal is?
No, went up again, had a fucking great time.
I don't know, it's like one of my favorite gigs I've done just as far as like being that far away from where
Where I live where I grew up all this
Information that was put into my head that I can go on the other side of the world and still vibe with people
So fucking cool that and when I did a
Mumbai
When I went to India that was another fun one.
Like how the fuck am I all the way over here
and I'm saying shit and they're laughing
and they're getting it.
It's like, oh that's right, that's right,
because people are people, because people are fucking cool.
And if it wasn't for a handful of greedy cunts
in the fucking world trying to get us all to hate each other
and at each other's throats instead of working together.
Imagine that world. We all fucking work together.
The only competition you watch is like sports.
You know, or a room full of nerds with their fucking Rubik's cubes.
Isn't that amazing? You got to give it up to the fucking...
the nerd that still can solve a Rubik's Cube in like under a second,
you know what I mean? That's like the rock stars that still have that
curly cord leading to their amp.
You know what I mean? That's the nerd version of fucking
going analog and just kicking it old school, like just saying
fuck video games, you know?
Fuck dressing up like a pheasant
and going to a Motel 6 with other people dressed like turkeys and having some fucking nerd orgy,
whatever they do.
Am I putting furries in with nerds?
Are furries the nerds of sex addicts?
I think they are,
because there's nothing sexy about what the fuck they do.
And I actually to this day I kind of refuse to acknowledge, you know when people don't
acknowledge a genocide, I don't acknowledge that furries exist.
What if I ran for political office and that was the thing that they always tried to get me on?
Mr. Burr, do you acknowledge that furries exist? And I'm just something, listen, I'm not going to answer that. OK, I came here to talk about the issues that affect it.
Mr. Burr, in your district, there was a bunch of people
dressed like beavers banging each other outside
of a red roof inn.
And according to our story, the red roof inn
was a place where people would get together Banging each other outside of a red roof in and
According to our sources, you sent a bunch of police
Officers down to what about that fucking police chief down
In florida saying if you throw fucking rocks at the police
We will shoot you dead graveyard dead and your family
Members will come down and pick up your remains.
What in the fuck kind of world are we living in? dead, graveyard dead, and your family members will come down and pick up your remains.
What in the fuck kind of world are we living in?
Is anybody out there trying to fucking bring the boiling water down to a simmer?
It's just, is every person in a position of power a fucking meathead. I mean, I don't know. I imagine a lot of police officers around the country
saw that and cringed going like that is not the like, how about deescalating? Is anybody
trying to deescalate a situation? If you throw a rock, you will be shot dead. It's like, what about the people around him?
What if you miss?
Then what are you gonna do?
You're gonna mount the person's fucking head
down in the bar next to the goddamn D.
Ah, look at the callback.
I'm waking up people.
That was a callback.
Whoa.
All right, let's get into the reads here.
Oh, look who's back.
Look who's back. Look who's back like when fucking JLo and Ben got back together. It's MeUndies. We're back together everybody on the Monday morning podcast.

Why don't you fucking get on a fucking treadmill before you're fucking graveyard dead, you
fat fuck.
Your job's to protect and serve, not to fucking escalate already difficult situations in your
own goddamn country, you fucking moron.
Saying I'm going to go out and kill somebody.
He's going to say that.
He's got a gun and a badge, so nothing will happen to him.
All right, me undies.
Okay, we all know this summer is amazing.
Sunshine, road trips, beach days. But can we be honest for a second? It's time to talk
about jock itch. No, kidding. Remember jock itch? Did they cure that? I don't remember
the last time I saw a commercial about that. It also means one thing, sweat.
And if you're not wearing the right underwear,
that's right, real uncomfortable, real fast.
Sweaty balls.
It's like you're already not going to listen to her dumb story.
What if you're actually thinking about like,
oh, no, man, am I balls going to be roasting during this shit?
Then you really don't know what she's talking about.
And then what happens? Then what happens?
She asks a question.
You don't know what to say.
You got to go neutral.
What do you do?
What do you do when you just sort of drift off?
I used to do a bit about this.
When a woman's telling a story,
and she drifts off, and then she pauses.
And you're sitting there going like.
Oh, fuck, was that the end of the story or did she just ask the question?
What do you do? Right. You can't say yes.
Can't say no. You got to go with something neutral.
You just go, I mean, what the fuck you going to do?
You weren't even listening.
Well, you fucking did. You weren't even listening.
Well, you fucking, it's not a story, it's a miniseries. This should be like that Netflix clock

Names people call you.
Hi Bill, huge fan from India.
How come people call you names like blue balls
and bitch tits?
It's actually red balls.
Does it not get a bit annoying after a while?
Love your work and hope to see you in India again
No, I actually think it's fucking hilarious
Because they're there every time I think people have run out of ways to insult me
Not only do they come up with a new one. They come up with one. That's even funnier and more creative
so I
Like it I and more creative. So... I like it.
I like it.
I don't know. And I have to be honest with you,
how funny the average person is now
because of social media and, like,
I've said this before, but, like, the comment sections
that...
Oh, my God. There was, like, oh my God, there was like four fat guys that were in a band and then everybody
was just coming up with the name of the band, Limp Brisket and just all of these fucking
hilarious, I can't even remember them. Like some of the ones they came up with were just like,
like I was sending them to other people, other comedians,
you know, comment section,
we would just die in fucking laughing.
I don't know, so I like when they write in and make fun.
And I know that they're not being serious.
And even if somebody is, that's even funnier.
What's funnier than somebody is that's even funnier.
What's funnier than somebody hating you?
It's hilarious.
What a waste of fucking energy, especially if I don't even know you.
Yeah, I mean at least on my podcast they're kind of like fucking around.
I got all kinds of people on the internet, you know, on the interwebs that, you know,
don't like me because of something I said about fucking Luigi or because I'm with, you know, Nia or whatever, they just don't like
me.
So then they write all of this shit and it's always, you know, it's like, all right, you
know, have fun with that.
Spend your day thinking about me and whatever the fuck I'm, I don't know why you would do
that.
I'm not wasting my time thinking about you.
But I don't know. I don't know why you would do that. I'm not wasting my time thinking about you. But I don't know.
I don't give a fuck.
People are just having fun.
All right, blue collar or not.
Hey, Billy blue collar, need a former roofer's opinion.
I was never a roofer.
I was the grunt that brought the shingles up.
My buddy claims him working as a plumber is blue collar, but my
working in retail at a hardware store loading trucks is not.
Okay, wow. That's an interesting argument. Oh, and by the way, his dad was the actual plumber and he just assisted him when he was
10 to 16 years old.
He still says his work was more blue collar than my loading.
What do you think?
Anyway, go fuck yourself.
Well if by more blue collar he means more difficult? Yeah.
I would say unclogging giant turds out of fucking toilets with your dad is a lot more
difficult than working in a fucking hardware.
What smells better than a hardware store?
It's fucking amazing.
I love that smell. What is it? You always smell rubber when you go in there from the fucking garden
hoses and the tires on the lawn mowers and the wheelbarrows. How old am I that I still
remember when like tires were rubber on fucking lawn mowers? I get what he's saying.
Like I worked in a warehouse loading and unloading trucks.
But if somebody worked out in the sun like landscaping, construction or anything like that,
it becomes more blue collar.
So as a plumber you're working indoors like somebody working
at a hardware store.
But I know a few people that got into plumbing.
And some of the stories that they
had about clogged up toilets, if we're
going to say degree of difficulty,
and then also the level that people are like the the most the high level of emotion
Like if you're an electrician and you come over and somebody's powers out
You know somebody's just like yeah, you know just sitting there and all sudden lights went out
You know that that that that but if you come over there and there's like water leaking like people are losing their house
They're freaking the fuck out. I
Would say yeah, you're both blue-collar. I mean what then what you should is this is what you should say to him
Okay, so working in a hardware store. So what is that? Is that a white-collar job?
Is it a baby blue-collar, I don know. I don't know what to call it.
I can tell you this.
He's making more, you know, as we say, he's making more fucking money than you are in
a hardware store, so isn't he more white collar?
That's one of those stupid debates that could go on forever.
All right. I think my brain just did a ff...
just shut off for a second and then came back on.
That's why I just stuttered there.
Wow. Uh...
I'm doing this podcast,
and I'm fucking gonna go back to sleep.
Fuck trying to get acclimated over here.
All right, Kryptonite.
Hey, Billy, no beer.
Uh, I listen to your great podcast while I'm making my own comics
and your throwback show from June 12, 2017
perked up my ears.
What do you mean you make your own, like comic books
or a comic strip?
Either way, that's cool.
Everyone knows you're not into comics and Star Wars,
even though you're in them sometimes.
So there's no way you could know
the convoluted history of kryptonite.
The listener was right about kryptons exploding,
but you were right about its effects on humans.
Dude, what in the fuck are you talking about?
This was a podcast that was eight years ago.
I need a little more backstory.
And it's eight years later. I don't know the effect of Krypton on fucking humans.
Oh, you mean like on Superman? Anyway, the story I read was that the co-creator of Superman,
Jerry Siegel, was being phased out by DC even though he still wrote some great Superman
stories well into the 50s. The other co-creator was already phased out
and working at a supermarket.
These greedy cunts.
They're all cunts.
It's... They bring you a superhero character
that's making you millions of dollars,
and then you... And that's not enough.
You don't appreciate him.
You got to figure a way to squeeze him out of it so you don't have to fucking pay
him this is what these fucking people do and then they blame Mexicans it's you
it's not them this might be why DC didn't use Seagull's original kryptonite story that gave a human Lois Superman-like powers and permanently removed Clark's powers, what it is is they've exhausted ways Superman can fucking save people, so then this is what
they do in entertainment.
We'll do the same stories again, except this time it's a woman.
That's all they're doing.
And then what is he doing?
Fucking wearing a skirt that goes halfway down his ankles like Lois Lane.
Sitting at home making fucking finger food, giving both characters
what they secretly wanted.
What Superman didn't want to be Superman?
Dude, superheroes, why are they always so sad?
They're like the original grunge fucking musicians.
Remember that when grunge came around and they just with your fucking sad
It's like we're all sad You got a fucking drag us down with you
Like spider-man I mean his girlfriend was the most smoking hot chick any superhero ever got I say
That's my opinion that raven haired with that fucking rack and those hips
I kid the fact that that son of a bitch went out and saved anybody with that at home is incredible
anyway
So we continue on giving them both what they secretly wanted
Only a script of this
survives online and
Kryptonite itself was invented for the radio show. The actor
wanted to take a vacation, so someone came up with kryptonite, which had Superman suffering
in a cave for two weeks while Batman and Robin subbed for soups in the storyline. I know that reference. That's Will Arnett.
In, uh, Lego Batman.
What's up, soups?
Uh, but Seagal himself thought kryptonite...
should affect humans.
Oh, I see.
Nice work for a non-comic geek, Bill,
but it just shows how the behind-the-scenes stuff
can be as interesting as the comics themselves.
Thanks and go fuck yourself.
That is like really interesting,
but then it's, I don't like the part
where they squeezed out the co-creators.
That's like when a company goes public,
and then eventually the people that buy it overpower them in the corporate room and they vote the guy out.
And then the guy that came up with it gets squeezed out.
They call it a hostile takeover.
They're just fucking awful people.
PS, the artist that drew Peter Parker's girlfriend
that you loved, oh, I'm still bringing it up. So well in the 60s was John, They're just fucking awful people. P.S. the artist that drew Peter Parker's girlfriend
that you loved, oh I'm still bringing it up.
So well in the 60s was John Romita
who set my standards for female beauty as well.
The standards is a drawing.
All right, Chris Everett.
Okay, Bill Burr Baggins.
Greetings from Plymouth Mass.
And our cool ass monument, Plymouth Rock.
Last week you were talking about watching Chris Everett playing tennis in the 80s,
and it instantly reminded me about watching NFL quarterback Jim Everett
beat up Jim Rome on TV for calling him Chris numerous times after being warned
not to basically calling Jim a girl he called him Chrissy yeah yeah that was
like he goes I bet you won't say it now. He's like, I bet I will. He goes, I bet you won't. He goes, Chrissy.
And then they stand up.
He pushed him over.
Yeah, it was a great moment.
I enjoyed it.
Like, I don't understand why somebody who just talks
about sports would be going that hard at somebody who's actually playing them
To that point and then actually trying to bully them like what the what where the fuck are you mentally right now?
I
Thought Jim Everett showed a lot of fucking restraint that he didn't fucking give him a couple of overhand rights
Anyway, I was a kid when that happened and sometimes the other kids would give me shit at school.
My folks used to tell me to ignore them or talk it out,
but it rarely worked.
I saw Jim Rome get smoked for talking shit on TV
and instantly decided I'm not taking shit from bullies anymore.
That's fantastic.
A few days later, a kid was giving me shit in the school hallway
and was showing no signs of stopping.
I shoved him into the wall and was showing no signs of stopping.
I shoved him into the wall and he fell down to the ground,
got up and strode away with watery eyes.
He never gave me shit after that.
School got so much easier after I started standing up for
myself, all because of my man Jim Everett.
I love it.
Would you prefer your kid to handle a bully the Jim Everett
way?
Absolutely. Like politely telling the bully to relax and standing up for yourself or some other way.
No, that's the only way they listen. That's the only way they listen.
What does amaze me is the level of bullying that still kids get away with.
And I'm not talking about that cyber shit,
which is something I do worry about as a parent
because kids all want to fit in
so they all want to be on the same chat room
because if everybody's talking about that at school,
you're fucking left out.
No, I've.
Always believed in sticking up for yourself, even if you have
to lose the fight.
Just swing as hard as you can, punch him in the fucking face
as hard as you fucking can.
At least get one in.
And even if you fucking turtle after that and get the shit
kicked out of you,
you know, that person's going home with some pain too.
It all depends.
It all, be honest with you,
it really depends on the situation
because there's a lot of psychos out there now.
So I don't know.
But I mean, if it's like some schoolyard shit
and there's teachers around,
you can get a few in, take a few, and then it's fucking over.
I mean, there was a bad incident in Missouri.
I'm thinking like St. Louis, where, you know, because you're also dealing with kids and
their brains aren't fully formed and they don't understand.
That's the danger right now, like out there, because the level of information on how to fight,
forget about how the UFC like combined
all of these different styles.
Like the level that fighting has gone to,
everything was like separated before like mixed martial arts
and UFC was just like I
do taekwondo, I'm a boxer, I'm a wrestler.
And that's just kind of what you did.
Now these guys are like in women are like these fucking Swiss Army, like the women in
the UFC, like they could beat the fuck out of like any normal guy walking down the street,
I'll give a fuck how many fights you had.
That's the women.
That's how good they've gotten at it fighting.
So you got kids watching this shit.
I mean, the level of how much we fucked each other up
just watching, you know, the WWF was what it was called
when I was growing up, the Worldwide Wrestling Federation.
And you would try to, you know, do these suplexes
to your friends in the backyard.
You'd take the cushions off the lawn chairs, to, you know, do these suplexes to your friends in the backyard.
You take the cushions off the lawn chairs, put them on the fucking porch.
Never had the brains to take the cushions and put them on the grass so it's at least
softer.
We would always do it on the porch.
And you just let somebody fucking whatever, try to do the shit that you saw.
You know, there's a lot, I don't know, it's...
I definitely believe in whatever way standing up to a bully,
but, you know, nowadays, I swear to God,
it's almost like you have to go to, like...
some sort of dojo to begin with. I don't know. Listen, it's been a long time since I've been in school, but I definitely believe in like
sticking up for yourself.
That reminds me, one is for fucking annoying video.
I hate when like, they stick, there's these Instagram videos where they show like boxing
matches, professional boxing matches, and you see a guy get knocked out.
Then they cut to somebody who's never had a pro fight, who's never had a fight with
a guy who's never had a fight with a guy who's never had a fight with a guy who's never had Instagram videos where they show like boxing matches, professional boxing matches,
and you see a guy get knocked out.
Then they cut to somebody who's never had a pro fight
and he's making a face like, what was that guy doing?
And he's like, it's not like this, it's like this,
it's like this, not like this, it's like this.
And there's nobody throwing punches
trying to take his fucking head off.
I don't know.
Anyway, sorry, let's move on here. Brother-in-law is a deadbeat. Hey, Billy, man, ace tits. You know, what the fuck? That's
like sweaty and pasty. That's disgusting. You know what? That one hurts.
All right. Dear Bill, my sister has been married to this guy, Eric, E-R-I-C-H.
Adding the H. You know what I mean? I don't know. What do you think about that? Do you get along better with John's J-O-H-N or John's J-O-N or
Brian's R-I-A-N or R-Y-A-N
This is a new one Eric with the C or with an H
I
Don't know I see Eric with an H and I just think like,
what does this guy think he's better than me?
Why did you add the extra like Eric this something?
Like you know, like you're some lineage
going back to some Game of Thrones shit.
All right, dear Billy, my sister has been married
to this guy Eric with an H for over 10 years.
He wasn't exactly what our family had in mind
as the person my sister would end up marrying,
but we supported her anyway.
Now, I know that sounds like a douchey comment,
where women are like, well, what are you involved with?
Who's she's going to marry?
I'm sure their criteria was pretty low.
Hey, sweetheart, just whatever you do,
don't marry a douche.
And then she shows up with Eric with an H.
Anyway, they met in grade school,
and when she was pursuing a master's degree in psychology,
oh, sorry, when she was pursuing a master's degree in psychology,
and he was enrolled in
a Ph.D. program also for psychology, he dropped out of the program shortly after beginning.
Sorry.
And then worked, it has nothing to do with the story, and then worked a series of dead-end
jobs for the next five years.
I thought the energy and motivation he had for his PhD program would transfer into something
else constructive, but instead he worked as a part-time baker, an event bartender, and
got his real estate license, which led nowhere.
Okay, when the pandemic hit, he lost his job as a bartender, but my sister was still able
to work remotely since 2020
He's basically been unemployed except for a short month or two where he drove elderly picked people to pick up their prescriptions
He sounds depressed to me
If he's not a deadbeat
Does he smoke weed too
But he wasn't able to hold that job down mainly because he gets chronic migraine headaches
and would call in sick every few days.
On top of that, he's 90% deaf and has anxiety because he has trouble hearing people and
interacting with them.
Yeah, this guy's a mess.
So I have sympathy for him when it comes to his health issues, but the past couple of
years when I've gone on road trips to visit them, the guy who's now 45 years old spends
his day smoking pot and watching TV while my sister works.
He's overweight, has been wearing the same clothes for the past 10 years, is generally
uninteresting because he doesn't do much outside of watch TV.
This bugs the hell out of me but again this guy was my sister's choice and she can get
sensitive if I bring up uncomfortable things.
Well if your sister's not upset by it I would mind my own fucking business.
Last week my sister's dog got sick and had to be rushed to the emergency vet.
Her dog survived but she ended up with a hefty bill of six grand.
Both me and my older brother offered to help her out with the bill,
but also texted each other about how fucked up it is that we're having to help out my sister
because the deadbeat she married to hasn't worked in five years.
So I'm thinking after sending my sister money to use this opportunity to call her husband
and tell him that he needs to get his shit together, get a job and start supporting my
sister.
Supporting your sister, he needs to fucking just start by pulling his own weight.
At this point, I really don't care if it upsets my sister because now this guy's deadbeat
lifestyle is affecting me.
I want to, I'll do, relax.
You paid for a fucking dog bill, alright? It's not affecting you. Like, I guess maybe
seeing your sister in that situation is bothering you. I'm telling you dude, getting involved
in somebody's marital fucking problems when they haven't asked you to is not a good fucking
move. I'm not saying you're wrong for feeling these fucking feelings. I take back what I just said. It's just
that I'm telling you don't do this. God damn you Joe don't do this. I want to be
firm with him but also not start dropping f-bombs. Oh do I relate to that?
Are you doing that thing where you're like trying
to rehearse what you want to say to them and it starts like whispering in your house, hey man,
you know, I'm not saying you're a bad guy, but you know, it's just like, you know, it's been five
years since you worked and you know, the fuck dude, you fucking fat fuck, get the fuck off,
you know, and it ends up turning, I can't do that. That's what I do.
And I go back like three times I'll do it
and I just realized I have an inability.
And then I go, okay, here we go.
It's confrontation time.
I know the F-bombs are coming during a confrontation.
I just, now the game is how far can I go
before I start acting like an idiot.
Anyway, he goes, I wanna be firm with him but also not start dropping F-bombs and call
him a pussy.
So I plan on writing out some bullet points and sticking to that when I talk to him.
What do you think, Bill?
Is there anything more I can say or do to this guy?
Would love to get your take on this.
Best wishes to you and the family and go fuck yourself.
If I was you, I would not get involved.
I would not get involved, okay?
If I was going to get involved, I would keep going through your sister by saying like,
you know, I'm just checking in.
Is everything all right?
I know your husband has been struggling
trying to find a job, you know?
Is everything okay?
And I would wait.
I do, you just, you can't get involved
in somebody's fucking relationship.
You just, what ends up fucking,
because it's the back and forth. You can't get involved in somebody's fucking relationship. You just, what ends up fucking,
because it's the back and forth.
Because one moment, the person will be like,
you know, venting to you.
So then you think like, oh, that's how they feel.
That's just how they feel in that moment.
And then they swing the other fucking way.
And they're all the way the other way.
And you start going at the person
with where they were yesterday, the other fucking way, and they're all the way the other way, and you start going at the person with where they were yesterday, the other person.
It's a fucking nightmare.
I know it's hard to watch a sibling get treated like shit
or to be, you know, being taken advantage or whatever,
but, like, your sister needs to learn
how to handle this fucking problem
if she considers it a problem, which I don't know why she wouldn't.
But I can tell you right now, your heart's in the right place,
and you are 100% right, but trying, you're not going to go in,
what the fuck are you going to say to this guy?
And he's going to be like, you know, I never looked at it that way.
And then when he's going to get a fucking job
and start pulling his weight, like, that's like Dr. Phil shit. You need to get a fucking job and start pulling his weight like like that's like
dr. Phil shit you need to get a fucking job the guy goes all right then the
crowd applause that's not life that's a fucking TV show I would not get involved
in this shit I would not get involved in this shit and if he comes around for
Thanksgiving and you're drinking I I would, you know, just watch
your mouth because something's going to come out.
Hey, buddy, do you think you should be drinking that high level of, you're drinking pretty
high on the shelf for a guy who hasn't worked in five years.
What?
What, am I wrong?
Oh, now she's crying.
She's crying.
You're mad at me.
You're mad at me.
You're not mad at him. You're mad at me. You're not mad at him
You're gonna get involved in that shit. I would I would stay out of it
um As hard as it is, um
And just be there to be pick up the fucking pieces because that doesn't seem like it's going to go anywhere good
All right, and with that upbeat fucking thought, uh, that is the podcast. Thank you everybody for listening
Thank you to everybody once again that came out in l, England. Everybody that came out in Dubai. I'm in Milan, Italy.
I got that show coming up and I feel like I'm going to sleep for fucking eight hours. That's
it. Sorry about yawning during the podcast. All right, that's it. Go fuck yourselves and I'll talk
to you on Thursday.
