Starting point is 00:00:00 In the mountain, in the kitchen, even in the living room. They really lie everywhere, the empty batteries. But now we're going to the finish. Bring them to a BeBat-inzamel-point quickly. You will always find one in your neighborhood on BeBat.be. BeBat! Together, better for nature and for all of us. Campaign in cooperation with the OVAM.
Starting point is 00:00:31 As you can tell by my little, slightly more relaxed tone, my kids asleep downstairs, so I can't scream, I can't yell, I can't rant, oh, I can do those things, but I have to do it in a controlled manner. That's what I have to do, because the dynamics of the house changed a little bit. And I know what you think. So Bill, does that mean the dynamics of the pie
Starting point is 00:00:52 can't just get it changed a little bit? Yeah, just a little bit, but nothing crazy. Like listen to me right now, you would have no idea that right before I got on this podcast, I just meditated. I meditated for 10 minutes. I shut it down. Let's focus on the sounds in the room now gently. Let those go away and focus on your breathing.
Starting point is 00:01:10 I did that 10 minutes. I guess it's helping me out. I had one meltdown this week. I was trying to figure out how to put the fucking car seat into the car, and I swear to God, dude, like the level, the level that they have over designed those things is insane. I swear to God. I hope auto racing, they should put those fucking drivers
Starting point is 00:01:35 in car seats. Then nothing would ever happen to them. I couldn't figure out how to get this effing thing in there. And did I just say effing? Yeah, I'm trying to learn how to, ah, the kid's influence. It's coming in. I've been cracking me up by doing that. Going, hey, quit talking S and just abbreviating curses.
Starting point is 00:01:55 To her, it's hilarious because all she's ever heard me do is just curse my brains out. And I was making a laugh last night because we were laying in bed when we were watching Wheel of Fortune with a beautiful baby between us, and I was just doing what I always do. I was trashing all the contestants and everything on there at, you know, I can't say about the Wheel of Fortune,
Starting point is 00:02:20 man, they're fucking some stingy cunts on that show. When Agba comes down to the thing, whoever the one of the three that won, when they go over and then you try to win some big money to get him for one big hit for like 50 or 60 grand, those puzzles, they're practically impossible. And the clues throw you off. They had one, they said a phrase.
Starting point is 00:02:47 They go, this is a phrase. We'll give you these letters. And of course, none of them show up, right? Then you pick some and a few of those show up. This was the phrase, our first voyage. That's a phrase. I mean, technically it's a phrase, but if you're going to say it's a phrase,
Starting point is 00:03:04 this should be something like, to me, a phrase, it's somewhere between an expression and just some random shit, right? That's a phrase. Does that make any sense? Like an expression, a fucking stitch in time saves night. Is that an expression? Is that a soliloquy?
Starting point is 00:03:28 I don't know what that is, but I know that's not a phrase. That's something else, but I don't know what that is. But a phrase is something common. Hey, check, please. Don't fucking touch that. I can't think of a good one, but you know what I mean? Our first voyage is a phrase. Technically it's a phrase, Pat Sajak.
Starting point is 00:03:48 I never really, they always fuck the person over. They try to limit the R, S's and T's in it because they know everybody's gonna guess those ones. I don't know. Then he always pulls the card out, I'm sorry. And they give you like eight seconds to solve it, you know, get it. And then he always pulls out some ridiculous amount of money.
Starting point is 00:04:04 Oh, that was for, that was gonna be for 90 grand. Very stingy. But what do you expect? Cause I remember back in the day, they had the shittiest prizes on that show. It's almost like they didn't want you to be happy when you left. So as much as I'm enjoying that show,
Starting point is 00:04:21 I don't know, I'm starting to, just getting ready to move on to a new game show. Jesus Christ, I'm fucking tired. I don't know how the hell I'm gonna get through this hour. Cause then I got to run over. I'm doing Conan O'Brien tonight. Everybody please tune in to hype my standup special that comes out tomorrow on Netflix.
Starting point is 00:04:40 My fifth one called walk your way out. I know what you're thinking, Bill, why'd you call it walk your way out? Well, if you watch the show, you'll understand. How about that? But if you guys could, you know, social media, the whole thing up and just let people know to check the thing out.
Starting point is 00:04:56 So the dream continues. I would really appreciate it. I'm very proud of this one. I hope, I hope you guys like it too. Had a great time doing it. And we shot at this beautiful venue called the Ryman, which is the original place where they shot the Grand Ole Opry.
Starting point is 00:05:13 They had a couple of floorboards left from the original stage. So when you walk on those, those are the same ones that Elvis, Johnny Cash, and you know, a bunch of other white guys and fucking mini Pearl walked on Hank Williams. Hank Williams, Junior. Hank Williams, Junior, Junior.
Starting point is 00:05:35 I told you guys I got satellite radio finally in my car after all those years of being on it, on the Opian Anthony show way back in the day, XM satellite radio way back in the day. I never had it. And I didn't realize how fucking great it is. And I've actually gotten a little bit into country music, but it's that Willie Nelson Roadhouse channel.
Starting point is 00:05:54 I like the old stuff. I had a new shit. I just don't fucking, I just don't, I don't get it. I'm not into it at all. There's gotta be somebody. There's no fucking way you can have an entire genre of music and not have anybody today doing it well. But who knows?
Starting point is 00:06:11 So I haven't done shit this week, people. I don't have any jokes. I don't even know what the fuck to talk to you about. I've been watching Celtics and Bruins shit. I was so tired the other day. My daughter was crying. My wife was holding my daughter and I walked over with the pacifier to try to
Starting point is 00:06:30 quiet the kid and I literally walked up and tried to put it in my wife's mouth. She laughed thinking I was fucking around. I was like, oh, oh, sorry, sorry. Cause when I walked over, she was talking and all I was thinking was make the noise stop and I tried to stick it in her mouth. So anyway, so I'm starting to understand
Starting point is 00:06:49 why so many parents are so, are so cunty to people who either don't have kids or they're about to have kids. And they, I don't know, they're not nice people. They really aren't. And I'm gonna try not to be that person. I'm not gonna resent someone who doesn't have kids because they have free time that I no longer have.
Starting point is 00:07:09 That's such a fucking, I don't know. It's a weird thing, you know, when you have a kid cause you get to experience this new level of love and then you also get to see this other side of people just like, ah, did we just fucking, I don't know. I don't know, I ran to yet another person. Oh dude, you're gonna have no free time. You're gonna have no free time to fucking do it.
Starting point is 00:07:30 I went to a drum lesson Saturday and I went to the NHL All-Star game on Sunday. You know, the rest of my time was fucking, you know, dealing with the kid, but I'm still doing shit. You know, I think a lot of fucking people, they didn't do shit before they had a kid. They don't have a fucking hobby. They don't have anything that they're passionate about.
Starting point is 00:07:51 I don't know what it is, but they're miserable cons. I gotta get away from them, you know? I just had a buddy of mine say, hey, congratulations. I'm thinking about having a kid, you know, next year. I just said, that's great. It's your experience. Don't talk to parents. They're not saying people, myself included.
Starting point is 00:08:13 Just, you know, it's gonna be great. Have a good time. Be nice to people, did that, huh? But why would you do that? Why would you do that when you can't get some of your fucking resentment out on a completely innocent person? All right, I'm gonna stop bitching about this shit.
Starting point is 00:08:30 I think I've made my point. So anyways, I'm selling more shit. Oh, I'm selling more shit. Everything's on the chopping block. I got that John Bonham drum kit that I have that 71 Ludwood green sparkle. I'm actually toying with the idea of selling that fucking thing because I,
Starting point is 00:08:50 it's just too fucking big for me. It's not comfortable playing it. The cymbals, I don't even like the sound of them. It's not my sound. And I did the stupid fucking thing that every weekend warrior wanna be hobbyist musician does. I'm gonna buy Eddie Van Halen's guitar. Then I'll play like Eddie Van Halen.
Starting point is 00:09:11 No, you won't. You'll just be a douche with an Eddie Van Halen guitar. Who isn't Eddie Van Halen? So I made that mistake. So I'm actually thinking about, actually I toyed with the idea, but then I went in and I looked at the drums and they're so beautiful.
Starting point is 00:09:28 I don't know if I can fucking do it, but I don't know. I would rather get a drum kit that may be set up for fucking how I'm built. I swear to God, I played that thing out on the comedy jam twice. And to go from the rack tom to the floor tom, it's a 26 inch bass drum.
Starting point is 00:09:47 It's so, you gotta take like a taxi to go from the rack just the way I'm built. So to get to the fucking from the rack to the floor, I always go via the snare just to give me that extra split second just to get over the fucking thing. I don't know how this bottom guy did it, but you know, it's not working for me.
Starting point is 00:10:07 So I'm thinking of getting rid of that and going out and buying maybe like a Gretch or something like that with like a 22 inch kick instead of a 26 and have a 14 inch floor tom instead of having that as a rack tom. I think that I always liked the 14 floor. I know this is some fucking nerdy drum shit, but yeah, I think I wanna do that
Starting point is 00:10:29 and get him out of the fucking house. I'll find a fucking studio space for like a couple hundred bucks a month. And I'll just have a brand new kit. Cause that's the only thing that stops me from setting that thing up cause it's a vintage kit. I'm like, oh my God, what if somebody steals it? It's irreplaceable.
Starting point is 00:10:42 But if I buy a brand new one, brand new symbols, you get a little bit of insurance, you know, 50 bucks a month, I walk in there one day, somebody steals it, ah, just fucking get another one cause they're still making them. I'm trying to get out of that disease of like an old shit. I love old shit, but then you get it
Starting point is 00:10:58 and it just becomes this fucking thing when it breaks. Oh my God, how the fuck am I gonna try and find the parts for it? Like remember my bodyguard and the big dude from, from Pile, what is your major malfunction? What the fuck was that called? Full metal jacket, remember that guy? He played the, the dude who protect the kid from meatballs.
Starting point is 00:11:19 Anyways, he had a fucking motorcycle and there was some little piece of the carburetor that he couldn't fucking fight. So of course, because it's a Hollywood movie, you know, because it's a Hollywood movie, you know, they go into a junkyard and the little nerdy kid finds it, you know, and then that's their, the little bonding moment.
Starting point is 00:11:35 I would tell you guys how much I hate that when I watch TV's and movies, TV's, TV shows and movies. I hate the fucking convenience of how everything fucking works out. I also like two nights ago, I was doing stand-up at the comedy store and I was talking shit about being a white dude, you know, cause it's funny, cause you're not allowed to do it.
Starting point is 00:12:02 You know, every other group of people could be like proud of their accomplishments, but we can't, white dudes can't because of all the horrific shit that we've done wipes out any sort of accomplishment. So Jokely saying like, you know, we did this, we did that, we went to the moon and then this woman yells out, hidden figures,
Starting point is 00:12:16 go see hidden figures. I'm just, you know, I cannot stand people that go to see a Hollywood movie and think that they just read a history book. It's just fucking like, and then they think they're informed. It's like, you're not informed, you watched a movie. I told you guys that shit. Do you know that movie, Sully, when that thing came out,
Starting point is 00:12:41 they wanted to make the copilot an alcoholic just to raise the stakes and the real guy who's really alive and still flies had to like threaten to sue or something, to be like, guys, you can't fucking put that out there about me. I'm not an alcoholic. I have a career in commercial aviation.
Starting point is 00:13:00 You can't start floating it out to the world that I'm a fucking alcoholic. And then they were like, all right. So that's all I'm saying. Okay, I'm not saying that there weren't some people doing some math and all that, just don't fucking, my only thing about that, and this is myself included, don't fucking come after me,
Starting point is 00:13:19 when you've never heard of those people and all you did was go out and go see the fucking movie and start coming to me like you went to fucking graduate school. So I had fun with that. I probably went too hard. I brought up that guy who fucking, that dude who figured out that when you're in outer space
Starting point is 00:13:36 that if you perspired that your sweat would boil and you would literally boil in your own sweat so that a space suit was literally like a giant radiator. Some dude figured out that that would happen. Figured out that that would fucking happen before we even went out there, you know? Where's that guy's movie? Huh?
Starting point is 00:13:56 Where is his movie? Oh, Jesus Christ, what else? Yes, I went to the NHL All-Star game. Three on three, this crazy format. I think, you know, they're going in the right direction because everybody knows that All-Star games are mind-numbly boring. The baseball one's pretty good.
Starting point is 00:14:19 Baseball, I would say baseball is the best All-Star game. The NBA All-Star game, I guess is sort of fun because nobody's going to play D and everybody's going to dunk. So it's a little interesting, but I'd say the baseball one's the best. So the NHL is trying to figure out, you know, a format on how to make theirs competitive
Starting point is 00:14:38 and people to give a shit. So they take like all four divisions and I didn't even understand the format. You played like five minutes, then you played another five minutes and then two other divisions came out, you played five and five and then the winner of those two then played in the finals.
Starting point is 00:14:53 I don't know how the fucking thing worked. Or did you play two 10-minute periods? I was at the game and I couldn't figure out what was going on and it was unbelievably quiet when it was in there. They should have played the first five minutes five on five and then the next one. You know something,
Starting point is 00:15:11 there's no way to make an All-Star game exciting. That's just basically it. Cause you know what, they just have too much to lose. Back, you know something, I bet when the All-Star games were great, we're back in the day when professional athletes also had like off season day jobs. Like you played for the Cleveland Browns from September
Starting point is 00:15:31 till the end of December and then the rest of the year you were like pouring concrete. Like those lunatics, they got in shape by you know, being the jackhammer guy on a road crew. I bet then they had some good games cause then there was probably the pride of like, our conference is better than your conference
Starting point is 00:15:50 and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. But there's just too much money at stake, but it was still fun to go down there and see all that type of stuff. But that's was part of my nerd, you know, fandom thing that I have. I've now been to every All-Star game except for the baseball one.
Starting point is 00:16:09 So now of course with my fucking OCD, I have to, I don't even know what I'm going for. Going to all of these fucking games at this point, but I don't know. You know what's cool about it is it keeps me going to different places. You know, cause at some point I want to go to that. I've been to one golfing major in order to go to all four.
Starting point is 00:16:30 The first three are not difficult. The U.S. opening the PGA are not difficult. You can get fucking ticks. Fucking U.S. opening golf. I mean, they're just animals. You know, when you watch that golf tournament and you hear those people screaming and yelling, it sounds like the third show
Starting point is 00:16:45 at some shit fucking comedy club on a Saturday night, just a bunch of drunks, and they're not going to police anybody cause they want to make their money off selling them booze. The masters is the hard one because they don't sell tickets. And here's a heads up on that. The first time I did it, you get like these badges that are given to the members
Starting point is 00:17:06 and they're not supposed to sell them, but they all do. And everybody kind of looks the other way, right? So then you go to these brokers that have these badges. You pay way too much fucking money for them. Then you show up at somebody's fucking house. This is what happened to me. And the first time I did it, I went with two people and we lucked out and we got the badges.
Starting point is 00:17:26 Me and Verzi, we went in 2010. Then a few years later, we went to go again. I brought five fucking people to the same people's house. And they said, ah, there was a mix up with the badges. And then the lady who was going to pay us just fucking, goes, I'll be right back to go get them. And she just fucking left. And that's the last time we saw her.
Starting point is 00:17:46 And then the husband just waited us out on the front yard. And I was just out the money and they completely fucked us over. And I lost a ton of money as did a number of other people. And we were talking about trying to remember when we were standing outside the house, just waiting for them,
Starting point is 00:18:04 the neighbors came walking by going, like, oh, do they screw you out of the badges? Yeah, they did that a few years before. And just started having fantasies about burning down their fucking house and all of that type of shit. And then, I don't know, I just kind of let it go. And you know what's funny is every time I let it go,
Starting point is 00:18:25 like fully just let it go and just be like, you know what? I did get to go to it. Part of buying scalp tickets is every once in a while, you get fucked over. It happened to me at a Ravens game one time. I ended up buying some tickets that were stolen season tickets and they kicked me out of the fucking stadium
Starting point is 00:18:43 and then I had to buy another pair of scalp tickets to get back in. I mean, it happens. But what's funny about that, that when I got fucked over at the Masters, and I bought, I bought five of those fucking things. So I was out a lot of money. What was funny about that is every time
Starting point is 00:19:04 I go to let it go, because I remember saying to the guy, I said, dude, if you don't give me money back, I'm gonna sue you and blah, blah, blah, said all this stuff. And then the guy, little Elmore Fudd looking, fucking dude. Just go, you never get your money back. Name is fucking.
Starting point is 00:19:19 This other fucking fat fuck. I was going, well, how much money you got in your pocket from the other ones? Give me that money. Because you ain't giving me that money. Come again, let's see you try. All right, it was like one of those moments and there was like five of us
Starting point is 00:19:35 and we could all beat the shit out of the guy, but you know what's gonna happen. You're gonna beat the shit out of him. Okay, then we're not gonna get him money. We're gonna go to jail. They're gonna sue us for assault. There's just no way to win. The only way to win a fight,
Starting point is 00:19:48 once you're passed like high school, once you become an adult, the only way to win a fucking fight is you have no money and you have nothing to lose and you're homeless. That's the only way to win it because then you're gonna get arrested and you're gonna go to jail
Starting point is 00:20:05 and at least now you got a place to stay for the night. You get some meals, you know what to beg for food. Other than that, you're gonna fucking lose because I sat there, kept trying to do the math, going, how the fuck, you know, having those violent things. You know, I'm sure there's a fucking tire iron in the car. If I smash both these guys over the fucking heads, which I'm not gonna do.
Starting point is 00:20:27 I've never done anything even remotely that violent, but you're so fucking mad when you're getting fucked out of money. You start having these fantasies and just cause it makes you feel better of just thinking of caving in the side of their fucking heads. I just kept trying to do the math on how we would get away and you just can't do it anymore.
Starting point is 00:20:45 You know, back in the day, you could do that. You could jump on your horse and fucking ride away. It was over. You know, there wasn't some minor with a cell phone fucking camera and your horse had a license plate on his fucking tail and you were screwed. You were done.
Starting point is 00:21:00 You know, somebody following you with a fucking drone and there was just no way, there was no way to do it other than to just take my loss and then I was gonna quadruple it. And God knows what else, you know, and the kind of people that would do to us what they did to us,
Starting point is 00:21:20 I was like, what would they do in a quarter of a law if I was actually guilty of doing something to them? You know what I mean? So I let go of it. I said, fuck it. It's a loss who gives a shit. We'll make it up. We'll come back at some other time.
Starting point is 00:21:32 We'll go again, fuck it. And every time I would go to let go of it, you know, start to let go of it, start to let go of it. Fucking Paul Verzi, the half Sicilian part of him who can never forget anything like that would call me up and just get me fucking off. He'd get me all riled up again. I'd be like, Paul, you gotta stop doing it.
Starting point is 00:21:57 And he would sit there calling me up, like he's Sammy the Bull, if Sammy didn't fucking sell out and I'm fucking the other guy there, what is it, what is it, the Teflon Don there? I almost said Giuliani, Gotti, John Gotti, and he would call me up just telling me what he was gonna do to that guy's house.
Starting point is 00:22:16 And of course he didn't do it. And he's not gonna do it, he's married, he's got two kids, but he would call it up, call me up and I would get me going again. He did this for fucking years. Now it's just a joke. Now it's just like once a year he'll call me up and be like, hey dude, not for nothing,
Starting point is 00:22:37 but I thought about this again the other day. I was thinking not even fucking saying anything to you and just going down there and then just calling you up and being like, hey Bill, it's done, it's done. And I go, yeah, and right there, right there, you'd call me up and then you'd say something over the phone and because it's not illegal,
Starting point is 00:22:53 not a listen to people's phone calls, right there we would get caught. You would have to do, Paul, is you would have to go down and do it, know that you did it and then not say anything to me ever until one day, maybe we were out to fucking see in international waters. And then even then we'd have to go to the back of the boat
Starting point is 00:23:12 when the engines were on, you'd have to put your hand over your fucking mouth, like fucking Joe Pesci and De Niro and Casino and then he could tell me, oh, by the way, I burned down that guy's fucking house. So anyway, I don't even know how the fuck I got onto that story. I don't think I ever told you guys that story
Starting point is 00:23:28 because I was so fucking mad about it for years. Oh, I don't know what I was talking about, I was just talking about going to all these different games. So be aware of that. If you ever go to the masters unless you have a really good hookup, if you're just gonna buy from a regular person, try to keep it at two because what happened
Starting point is 00:23:46 because we were a group of five and they didn't have enough badges, they decided that we're gonna have one group fucking pissed at us rather than having three groups of two fucking pissed off. I forget how many we had. It's just like, all right, we're just gonna have, this is one group of people that will bitch
Starting point is 00:24:06 as opposed to having like, oh yeah, they fucked me over, they fucked my group, they fucked my group. So it was just us complaining. I actually think there was one other couple too. I don't know. I gotta stop talking about because it's gonna get me fucking mad again, those goddamn cunts.
Starting point is 00:24:19 You never give your mother back. Oh God, oh, it's fucking Elmer fun. Any other, the fat fuck redneck, this stupid orange shirt, I still remember his big guy. He has his big fucking beer belly. Oh my God. Oh, the beautiful sound of a bat hitting all that flesh. Oh, that would have been heaven.
Starting point is 00:24:40 But you know, that's not what you're supposed to do as an adult and who's kidding who? I've never done that to anybody. And I would have been like, I would have alligated or armed it and I just would have made him mad. Then he would have smothered me with all that fucking hillbilly fat and I would have lost. And I would have been off the money.
Starting point is 00:24:57 Then I'd be leaving with grass stains all over myself. It would have been horrible. All right. Oh yeah, so it was a spaghetti bolognese with a lot of meat. Download the Maiden Laisse app and cook me. Yeah, top. The Laisse.
Starting point is 00:25:19 Me with a cleaver. Sherries, berries, everybody. Gifts like no other for love, for your love like no other. Oh, that's right, Valentine's Day is coming up. I'm so fucking sleepy. Dude, my kid last night got up. I started to fall asleep around midnight.
Starting point is 00:25:38 She got up at, I get up at 1257, 110, two-oh-something, three-oh-something. Then she went to 430, which was unbelievable. Just get that extra 30 minutes. Then she went to six. And for whatever reason, she sleeps from like six AM to like nine or like 930. And I just know at that six o'clock one
Starting point is 00:26:02 that when I change that diaper and I get her all settled down again that I can actually just like, it's fine. That's why the podcast is a little late here. But thank God, I'm a stand-up comedian. Okay, you people that actually have jobs where you have to fucking get up at 830 in the goddamn morning to go drive.
Starting point is 00:26:17 I don't know how you just don't nod off in traffic and drive into a fucking guardrail. So my hat's off to you. All right, gifts like no other for your love like no other. There's no one like your Valentine. Oh, Jesus Christ. There's plenty of people like your Valentine. Everybody has two arms, two legs and a head.
Starting point is 00:26:36 This year treat them to an unforgettable gift. That's as unique as they are. Chocolate coverage strawberries. Tell a personal fuck off. Tell a personal Valentine's Day story. What makes your sweetheart unique? You know why? Cause we have a kid who was eight days old
Starting point is 00:26:54 and she still let me go to the NHL All-Star game. How about like that? What quirks do you love? Oh, I don't know. Talk about your personal experience sending cherries, berries. Have you already ordered cherries? No, I haven't.
Starting point is 00:27:10 You guys given to me for free. For free, cause I talk about it on your podcast. Berries, how did your Valentine react? Dude, am I applying for a fucking job here?

Starting point is 00:35:16 because I got the cars coming at noon. And oh, Billy has not fucking done anything yet. I gotta get ready to do this fucking show. All right. Oh, you know what I didn't bring up? I've been watching, of course, been watching the Celtics and the Bruins and all that. Bruins had a big victory against the Penguins
Starting point is 00:35:35 before the All-Star break. Granted, Malkin wasn't playing, but it was still, we had played a great game and I have to go on down to nothing, if I remember correctly. And then the Celtics have been playing great. Had a big win against the Bucks. Who the fuck did they beat right before that?
Starting point is 00:35:51 I watched like every one of them. I really enjoy, I can't believe it. I'm back into NBA hoop. Okay, let me get to, let's get to some of the reads here for this week. Oh, Super Bowl celebrations. Dear Billy Bloodhound. Oh, did I ever tell you guys how much I love a Bloodhound?
Starting point is 00:36:12 Oh, the fucking amount of dogs that I fucking love, but I love that dog, you know? They just got that chilling out vibe. Any, you gotta love a hound. Cause all you have to do is go, boop, and they do it with you. That's it. That's all I need.
Starting point is 00:36:29 That's all I was looking for. This Valentine's Day, okay? Ladies, if you really love your husband or your boyfriend, right? Just get him a Bloodhound, you know? And then you can be as crazy as you wanna fucking be. And all he has to do is just every once in a while be hanging out with his dog when you're not around.
Starting point is 00:36:46 You know? He just looks over and, hey, buddy, buddy. Oh, and it does it with him and it just makes you feel good. Oh, maybe it's just me. I don't know. I heard you mentioned Bloodhounds last week. I know you're not looking to get a dog anytime soon, but when you do, definitely consider a Bloodhound.
Starting point is 00:37:05 They're unbelievably, unbelievable with real young kids. I've had two with both my kids. Anyways, my question is if you ever have been to a Super Bowl, that's, they're great with kids. That's good to know. By the way, I keep getting updates with Cleo. She's doing great. She's loving her new family and everything's awesome with her.
Starting point is 00:37:25 And I might do a show at some point in the vicinity of the new people that have the dog just to visit and say hello. I don't know if I should do that or not. I don't know if it'll fuck the dog up or if it'll just make me sad all over again. I don't know what, but I still, you know what the fuck? I just look at it like that's one of my kids
Starting point is 00:37:44 and she's gone off to college and every once in a while I check in. How about that? Anyways, my question is if you ever been to a Super Bowl or hung around for the week before seeing what all the action is like. My friend asked me if I wanted to go this year but I'd rather watch it at home.
Starting point is 00:38:01 I like to watch sports alone. Loved you one cowherd, go Pat's. All right, here's the deal. I have been to two Super Bowls. I went to the Patriots when we played the Green Bay Packers. Remember that? And Brett Favera fucking threw that touchdown pass and then took his helmet off
Starting point is 00:38:23 and ran like half the fucking football field because his agent told him to do that and give us a big astronaut smile when you do it, right? That was cool just to be like the first time you go to a Super Bowl, if you're ever lucky enough to go to one, there is that thing that you can't believe, you're at the thing that basically
Starting point is 00:38:42 most of the United States is watching, that you're there. And I remember going down there, it was in New Orleans and it was just all the Patriots fans were a bunch of drunks and then of course the Wisconsin fans who were the same level of drunks but there's just something about Wisconsin like the Midwest, there's a certain level of common decency, decency.
Starting point is 00:39:10 I don't know what it is. I don't know, they just don't go as hard. It's weird, certain times you see them though, they're more animals than East Coast people, but it's an ugly thing, East Coast sports fans, we're lunatics, so we're all up there screaming and yelling on one of those balconies, fucking hammered down on Bourbon Street, right?
Starting point is 00:39:33 And John Kerry walked by and everybody was yelling that John Kerry, John Kerry, what do you think about the Patriots, blah, blah, blah. And he just looked up and he had this big phony smile, this is like an act out, you're not gonna get it, but you know that stupid old school, let's go get him and you make a fist, right? And you kind of act like you're maybe throwing a baseball
Starting point is 00:39:59 to home plate, you're like, yeah, kind of do one of those, whoa. He did it, he did it like slow motion. He made the fist, he paused and he just went and then kind of threw it like that really slow. It was so fucking weird, he was so detached from his own body and I'm convinced now after I saw Bill Clinton do it,
Starting point is 00:40:20 that they just know people are taking pictures of them so they don't even have a fuck about interacting with you. It's all about what you look like in the paper. That was that time I told you long story, but I ended up Bill Clinton when he was still president. This is pre-getting impeached and all that shit. He came down to Boston and one of my friends wanted to go down and see the motorcade.
Starting point is 00:40:42 I didn't want to fucking go. My buddy didn't want to go. He convinces us to fucking go. He's gonna buy lunch, so we go, all right, fuck it, right? So we fucking go down there. He's all excited. He just wants to see the motorcade go by because he'd watched so much of that JFK shit.
Starting point is 00:40:56 He just wanted to see a motorcade and that's like a big deal to see the presidential motorcade. I can admit that was pretty exciting to see. So they start coming down the street and right before they get to us, we're like, finally here it comes. He's gonna see the motorcade drive by and then we get all fucking go home.
Starting point is 00:41:10 He can buy us lunch, right? Right before they got to us, they made a right turn to go into this alley. Right before they got to us, like, you know, probably like 50 yards up and like, oh, you gotta be fucking kidding me. And this dude was so into like knowing politics. He was just going like,
Starting point is 00:41:25 ah, don't worry, he's just gonna go in there. It's a woman's college. He usually speaks on average from 50 to 65 minutes. I'll go run and get us some, you know, a couple slices of pizza or whatever. So we go, fine, so he fucking takes off and we're standing there. And all of a sudden the secret servers
Starting point is 00:41:41 starts walking down the street, telling everybody, we're up against those little police, little saw horse things, telling us, get your hands up, get your hands up. And the motorcade starts driving and who's walking down the street, fucking Bill Clinton with Ted Kennedy and somebody else.
Starting point is 00:41:56 Ted Kennedy was first. I think I already told the story. Dude, his fucking head, I swear to God, was the size of like a fucking safe. I've never seen a head that big in my life. Like, I literally went to like, yeah, both your hands up so the secret servers could see your hand.
Starting point is 00:42:11 And they were just sort of high-fiving people. As they walked by, remember, and Bill Clinton comes by and everybody's like, oh, Mr. President, Bill Clinton. And he wasn't saying anything. He just had both his hands up. He was slowly walking and just imagine smiling with your mouth open.
Starting point is 00:42:28 Like, yeah, like he was doing that, but your face was just frozen. He was just walking past all of us doing that. Like, and everybody was yelling to him. Everybody was saying stuff and he did not say anything to anybody. He just had that fucking look on his face with both his hands up.
Starting point is 00:42:46 He looked like a fucking crazy person. But then the next day, the front page of the paper, you see the guy and he's on the front page of the paper like, it looked like we were all having a great time. I thought there was something wrong with them. Also, I will tell you right now, dude, these softest fucking hands of any guy ever, ever. He has not done a fucking day's work
Starting point is 00:43:08 of manual labor in his life. Baby soft. Now they have a daughter. Baby soft fucking hands. That's how he gets the ladies. That's what it is. He puts one of those soft baby hands on your shoulders, takes out a cigar and it is game set match.
Starting point is 00:43:22 So anyways, he fucking does this shit. Then they jump in the car and then they fucking leave. Everybody's freaking out and then it's just over. And people just start to walk away and leave. Okay, all of this took less than like 38 seconds. Okay, because the Secret Service was not gonna have the president exposed to the public for that long. So anyways, he jumps in the car as I leave.
Starting point is 00:43:53 Everybody's like high off of, oh my God, I shook the president's hand. How big was Ted Kennedy's head? That takes about a minute for people to be like, what the fuck? And then people just start walking away. And then like 15 seconds after that, my buddy comes walking up the dude who wanted to see
Starting point is 00:44:08 all of it and he just sees everybody has left. I remember he was biting into a slice of pizza and he kind of stopped his bite and he just looks over and he goes, I missed it, didn't I? And I just looked at him and I felt bad. I was like, I shook his hand and he goes, no, you didn't. And then my buddy was a total pothead, was galloping around sideways like in a circle,
Starting point is 00:44:31 just screaming, I shook it twice, I shook it twice. Oh, that was such a fucking sad, quiet ride home. And we would try not to fucking laugh. We just started laughing after a while and he just refused to believe it. But the details we had, he knew that it was fucking true. And then the next day in the paper, he saw, because we were saying like,
Starting point is 00:44:50 dude, he wasn't saying anything. I'll never forget that. He just was like, oh, but without, like that's the noise he should have been making. But he wasn't making that noise. He just had his mouth open with his fucking hands up. And the next day in the paper though, he looked like a champ.
Starting point is 00:45:07 The man looked like a champ. All right, Jesus, that was a long way to go. What was I talking about? The first time I went to a Super Bowl, yeah. So we went to it and Bill Parcells fucked us over that year because that was his whole fucking stupid thing. Like, you want me to cook the dinner? You gotta let me buy the groceries.
Starting point is 00:45:22 Because what's his face? Robert Kraft overruled him and said, you should take Terry Glenn and fucking Bill Parcell's ego couldn't fucking handle that, right? And then he proceeds to tell the team that he's leaving and then he put his fucking house up for sale before we even played the goddamn game. It was one of the most selfish things.
Starting point is 00:45:42 If that's true, that's the, you know, that's the room of what the fuck happened. Then you know what kills me? He fucking goes to coach. Every place else he goes to coach. Who does he bring along with him? Terry Glenn. Unreal, unreal, but whatever.
Starting point is 00:45:57 Let's plow ahead here. Oh, and then the second time I went, I went to the Patriots versus the Rams and we won that game, obviously. And when it last second, and then I was just like, you know what? Every time the Patriots go, I'm gonna go to the Super Bowl. So the next time we played,
Starting point is 00:46:14 which was either against the Panthers or the Eagles, I can't remember. I think the Panthers, I was gonna go, but the next day I had like a six or seven AM call time to do that Chappelle show sketch, a World Series at Dice. That's the first time I met Charlie Murphy and all those guys. And so there was no way I could go.
Starting point is 00:46:36 And I was, you know, I was all upset, like, oh man, I'm gonna miss the game and blah, blah, but I gotta tell you, that Sunday night when the game was over and the Patriots won, you know, and I was sitting on my futon and my fucking pork excuse for a one bedroom in New York City, I remember when the game was over, I watched it with a couple of friends
Starting point is 00:46:57 and they were leaving, the game was over and I still had like two grand in my pocket. Cause that's basically back then when you were looking at drop and like, if you could get tickets, it'd be like 1500 bucks plus the hotel and all the travel and everything was gonna be another 500 bucks. The end of the game when I still had two grand in my pocket,
Starting point is 00:47:15 I was just like, yeah, you know what? This is better. I went, I saw him lose. I know what that feels like. I went, I saw him win. I saw him win their first one in the last play. It's never gonna get better than that. I'll go against someday when I have a kid.
Starting point is 00:47:26 So someday my daughter, if she wants to go, I'll take her, but if you've never been, I would definitely go. It's worth going one time, but you know, I was kind of all set back. This is back when I still just had the regular square TV. If you get about the flat screen now with the surround sound and all that shit, I don't know. Plus, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:47:45 I just like watching the game rather than, you know, I don't like everybody, all that shit talking when your team loses or if you win watching your fans talking shit to other people. It's just like, we didn't have anything to fucking do it, do with it, right? We either got lucky or we got fucked. What are you gonna do?
Starting point is 00:48:01 All right, paranoia or legit worry. Okay. Hey, hey, Bill Berlichek. Congratulations on your new baby. Huge fan of the podcast. I'm a 30 year old naturalized citizen who immigrated from South Korea when I was 10. As an immigrant and now a proud American,
Starting point is 00:48:23 I'm writing to you in regards to the current state of messy affairs going on at the White House. Why do you guys ask me this shit? You know, I'm just a comedian. I'm gonna solve this problem. Do you still think that Hill Dogg would have been just as bad as our current president? With Trump's reaction, I'm not so sure anymore.
Starting point is 00:48:44 Hillary might have been corrupt, as you mentioned, in your previous podcast, but I believe she would not have taken such a radical brash action based on intolerance and hatred. Not to that level, but they're gonna keep the wars going. You haven't noticed like Obama said he was gonna end the wars, he was gonna shut down Guantanamo, none of them did it.
Starting point is 00:49:06 They're not gonna do it. I can't get into this type of shit. Look, if you believe that this government, that governments act on what is right for people, rather than money, everybody, everybody past a certain level moves on money. That's it. Same thing in my business, okay?
Starting point is 00:49:26 Why don't they make better movies because they wanna make money? Why are there so many cliches? Why are there so many shitty ones? It's the same fucking thing. Do I think Hillary would do something like that? No, I do not. I don't think that she would do something like that.
Starting point is 00:49:39 Would she do a bunch of other evil things? My point in all of that shit, okay? When the amount of shit that Trump got during the election about being evil and a horrible fucking person, I never dispute at any of that, but everybody was acting like Hillary was a good person. I say that she wasn't, and I was trying to get people to look at other options,
Starting point is 00:50:00 which nobody's gonna do, because they just go, well, that's a waste of a vote because you're not gonna win anyway. So my thing with American voters is you get exactly what you fucking deserve. If you don't have the balls to not fucking, to do not vote for the representative of the Republican
Starting point is 00:50:18 and the Democrats who've been fucking you over since the day you've been born and try to get outside of this and try to pick somebody from a different fucking party that actually wants to call out bankers and calls out corporate corruption and deregulation and pharmaceutical companies and fucking genetically altered food,
Starting point is 00:50:42 all of that shit that never gets fucking brought up with the two guys who are, the man or the woman or the two guys usually that are in the showdown between the Republican and Democrat, you get what you fucking deserve. So there's whole fucking thing now because Trump's such a colossal fuckup which everybody already knew, okay?
Starting point is 00:51:04 For you to not look at Hillary being like, well, it's like you're looking at two serial killers and Hillary buries the bodies fucking under her house and Trump leaves them out in the fucking street, therefore you'd rather have Hillary. I mean, if that's, I don't know. But I can honestly tell you, just my own feelings that she's not a good person,
Starting point is 00:51:25 Trump is not a good person. They're two horribly selfish fucking people. And I think a lot of people got caught up in the fact that with Hillary's fucking genitalia and the whole thought of, oh my God, if there's a woman president, what does that mean for fucking women? It's just like every president in my lifetime
Starting point is 00:51:44 has been a guy, what does that meant for me as a guy? Nothing, it doesn't mean anything. Like that's like that disease in my business when you're a struggling artist and then all of a sudden you get a manager and agent. You start thinking, when I can put my feet up, I don't have to work anymore. Yeah, you do, you're always gonna have to work.
Starting point is 00:51:59 You know why? Because nobody gives a fuck about you. And I hate to be so fucking bleak, but it's the truth. Nobody gives a shit. What Trump is doing is fucking horrible. It's not surprising. It isn't. In a weird way, it's actually causing a bunch of people
Starting point is 00:52:12 to rally and push back against him. He's so fucking radical that I don't think he's gonna survive. He's gonna do a bunch of fucked up shit to like the midterm elections and he's gonna be so fucking out of hand that people are just gonna run all the way to the other side of the boat.
Starting point is 00:52:25 That's what always happens. The same way after eight years of Bush. Oh, now let's all run over to the guys with the blue ties and the blue bras and you still get fucked. And then everybody runs over to the other side. So whatever, I'm trying not to be preachy here, but you kind of get what you deserve
Starting point is 00:52:41 if you're gonna go through the insanity of continuing to vote for whoever the Democrats or the Republicans are gonna give you at that level. And you're not gonna start at least voting for these other people to encourage more people to run outside of those two fucking parties. Other than that, I don't know what to tell you. All right, I'm done ranting here.
Starting point is 00:53:03 Anyways, he said, I remember on Conan, you said everything will be the same under Trump. I really hope to God that you are right. Dude, you know something? I'm getting so much shit for that Conan thing. You know something? Next time there's an election like that, you go on the day after the fucking thing
Starting point is 00:53:16 and try to find some sort of a fucking angle. You know, like it's my fault the day after the election that I say that the Trump gets in, okay? Everything has been the same under Trump for a guy like me and for most fucking people. If you're Muslim, yeah, you're fucked. That absolutely fucking changed, okay?
Starting point is 00:53:38 But they were not showing those people. They were showing a bunch of white women crying. That's what the fuck they were showing. You know, and then they go, oh, the fucking Planned Parenthood and all of that type of shit. I mean, I don't fucking know. I mean, like, I think people fucking hate Trump
Starting point is 00:53:54 and for whatever reason, they wanna yell at a comedian. So continue to yell at me, you know? I told you they were both pieces of shit, but you know, after the election, I don't know, I just thought a lot of the screaming and yelling and fucking crying was a little much. It was a little fucking much. I understand your disappointment,
Starting point is 00:54:15 but crying, it's just was so fucking pathetic, all right? You don't like the guy, do what the fuck you can to fight back against him. You don't just fucking break down crying like somebody took your toy away. I don't know, maybe I'm too fucking, I don't know, cynical. But I've gotten so many tweets, you really don't get it, you're gonna fucking,
Starting point is 00:54:37 dude, shit changed when Obama came in, but did it really fucking change? You know what I mean? Cause I guess for me, actually true change, they would tell me where exactly do my federal income taxes go? Where does that go? If it goes to the fucking IRS and they are not,
Starting point is 00:54:58 they are a private corporation of bankers. They are not connected to the government. Where does that fucking money go? Do the people at the upper echelon of the fucking federal reserve, do they actually even bother paying taxes, considering they're paying themselves? There's a nationwide heroin epidemic
Starting point is 00:55:20 that people are saying was created by the pharmaceutical companies, was not even fucking brought up. They genetically altered our food, which is evidently so fucked up, they gotta try to force other countries to do it, and they're fighting back against them cause they don't want it.
Starting point is 00:55:34 And evidently it's so fucked up that these people, they don't even wanna be forced to label food as genetically altered cause they know people aren't gonna buy it. There's all of that shit. All of that shit not only did not change under a president with a blue fucking tie, it continued to get worse.
Starting point is 00:55:54 So now when a guy like Trump does something so obvious, now everybody's all, oh my God, this guy's out of his fucking mind. Like this last guy, I mean, I'm not saying Obama's a bad fucking guy, but like, wasn't he just continuing on with the fucking war mongering and all of that shit? Am I out of my mind?
Starting point is 00:56:13 Maybe I'm out of my mind. I don't know. I don't know, Bill. Maybe I'm paranoid overreacting just like those crazy liberal fucks out there, but I really do feel worried. It's one of those gut feelings that simmer deep down into your soul.
Starting point is 00:56:25 I mean, come on, even Gorbachev just said the world is preparing for war. Yeah, absolutely, but I don't think that's because of Donald Trump. I just think he's yet another guy. And if they say the world, the world is not Donald Trump. It's a bunch of fucking people.
Starting point is 00:56:48 You know what it really is? I don't give in to fucking hissy fits. You don't think clearly. You're breaking down, crying and just screaming that the fucking sky is falling. Then you're not gonna make any rational decisions. There's a bunch of groups that are gonna help out those peoples at the airport that you can give money to.
Starting point is 00:57:08 You can do shit like that. You can give money to them and you can pray to God that they're actually gonna use it on them and not use expense accounts and go out and buy themselves a fucking Corvette. So I don't have any answers, but I will say this to people. You gotta stop looking, you know, I don't know. I don't know what it is about stand-up comedians,
Starting point is 00:57:29 but we for some reason get our feet held to the fire more so than people who are actually in the governmental positions. You know, you wanna get mad at me because of what the fuck I said on the day after the fucking election on Conan, by all means do that. But you know, I bet there was,
Starting point is 00:57:48 how many of those fucking women at that women's fucking rally? How many of them you think actually voted? You know what I mean? All of this fucking outrage. Where were you on election day? I mean, there's been people who got busted, bitching about Trump.
Starting point is 00:58:06 They didn't even fucking vote, you know, but whatever. Give me shit because I joked around when it was like a fucking funeral out here in Hollywood. I was just trying to calm people down. Like you see, you know, you see a bunch of adults crying on television. Yeah, it's unsettling. This is what it thinks that happened.
Starting point is 00:58:28 I think this guy is gonna go fucking sideways and then he's gonna go so sideways. The midterm elections, what's gonna happen? It's just gonna get a bunch of fucking Democrats in there to maybe level this guy out. But in the meantime, they'll keep deregulating the banks and all of that other shit.
Starting point is 00:58:44 And in the end of the day, guys like Trump will be able to build a golf course in a fucking pipeline under and over any Native American land that they want to. That's what the fuck they wanna do. People, they're so rich, they find the government to be a nuisance. That's what the fuck you're dealing with.
Starting point is 00:59:00 And I don't know, that's what I think. All right, so there you go. And once again, I don't read or pay attention. So fuck off and God bless the United States of America. All right, advice from a new fellow dad. Hey, Billy boy, congrats to you and the lovely Nia on the new baby. My wife and I welcomed our first son about five weeks ago.
Starting point is 00:59:20 People would try to give you too much advice early on, but I've discovered the only secret you need to know about babies is that snapsuck and zippers rule. Baby shit all damn day. So you're taking onesies on and off all day. You don't need the added frustration of fumbling with dozens of snaps to get onesies.
Starting point is 00:59:42 So get onesies with zippers. And that's all you really need to know. Grats and go again and go fuck yourself. That's a great one. That's actually great. I'm gonna use that because I dealt with snaps all last night. All right, selfish girl, friend advice.
Starting point is 00:59:56 Hey Bill, you're gruff, hey Bill, you gruff ginger bollocks. I love the podcast, brutally honest, it's great. You're like, oh, anyway, I got a girl who most of the time is great. She's really hot, really smart, really fun. They always start this way. But every so often she just seems totally fucking selfish.
Starting point is 01:00:17 Most of the time I totally admire her ethics slash morals, important, right? Yeah, so she's human. Most of the time she's cool and every once in a while she's got this thing you don't like. Well, we celebrated our third anniversary yesterday. By the way, I'm 28, she's 27. We went out to a sushi restaurant
Starting point is 01:00:33 for a bit of a celebration. It gets time to pay the bill. And I say, I'll pay in cash if she transfers me her half. Oh, God, dude. He goes from that moment on the night was all silent treatment till we started arguing. Then it went back to silence till we went to sleep. Yeah, cause that's that weird thing
Starting point is 01:00:55 where it's like you're celebrating your anniversary, but for some reason you have to pay. Yeah, that's where all the feminism goes out the fucking window right there. That's always a great sleep when there's an unresolved issue. I'm not even a big believer in the guy just paying. But I'm not a big believer in the guy just paying the bill, but okay, on special occasions, it's done.
Starting point is 01:01:21 It's the done thing, so I'll go along with it. But I didn't this time because the week before my laptop fucked up and I had to sacrifice my TV, my camera stuff and media center, stuff I love to make enough cash to get a decent replacement so I can work slash keep applying for new jobs. Also, I've been between jobs and money's a bit tight right now.
Starting point is 01:01:41 In short, it's not been a great week. You'd think she'd be a bit understanding about it, given the circumstances, but no. Hey, you're making all decent points here. Anyways, we had a fight about it. Went quiet again, then we did what we do sometimes and just let it go rather than either of us having to apologize, oh, that's not good.
Starting point is 01:02:03 She says the argument was me not treating her like a lady. I see this is this fucking, I don't know, this is this thing that you can't win as a guy. You know, they wanna be treated just like a guy when it's something good is at stake, but when a bill comes, like, I'm a lady. I say it was about, it was not about me paying for everything. Up till the bill, we were having a great time.
Starting point is 01:02:26 I was psyched about a callback for a great job I'd gotten earlier, she was psyched for me. Then she throws a fucking moody like a fucking infant whose toys been taken away because I wanna split the bill. I don't know, maybe I'm insane. My friend says it was a schoolboy error. I don't think we're kids in a bit of grown-up consideration called for this situation, but anyways,
Starting point is 01:02:51 have at me if I'm being a moron, give me both barrels. Dude, all of this shit that you said to me, you need to say to her. I mean, minus the fucks and some of the other stuff, calling her a child, I wouldn't do any of that, but you know, your relationship is gonna be a lot easier if you start communicating. So maybe you could have prefaced it with,
Starting point is 01:03:17 hey, you know, I know we're celebrating our anniversary, I know I'm supposed to pay as a guy, but I'm kind of tight, can you blah, blah, blah, blah. I don't know, I don't, I just, I don't get all of that shit where why the guy has to pay. It's your relationship and the woman never pays, you know? If you've noticed all the advertising, hey, Valentine's Day is coming up,
Starting point is 01:03:40 it's all about what the guy has to get the woman. That's something you don't hear at the fucking woman's march. Just basically how the male-female relationship is set up is that the guy should just be constantly showering her with money and gifts because she had the decency to, you know, spend her time with you.
Starting point is 01:04:03 It's like her time has value, yours does not. You know, I don't get it. It's like, hey, I could be fucking doing other things too rather than listen to you talking about your day, same as you gotta listen to me. It's not how it works. Anyway, cigar recommendation. Hey there, freckled tits.
Starting point is 01:04:21 I have been sober and more importantly, off the cigarettes for over a month now. Congratulations to celebrate this. I decided to treat myself to a nice cigar while I watch your new stand-up special on the 31st. Any recommendations on a good smoke? Thanks and go fuck yourself. Well, if you're off cigarettes,
Starting point is 01:04:38 I don't know why you'd smoke a cigar, but if you're going to and you don't have access to a Cuban cigar, I like those, the Aurora Emeralds, and I like this, the Davidoff, Nick O'Ragwin that Verzi turned me on to and the Casa Magna, the Torpedo ones,
Starting point is 01:05:01 got the two bands. I forget which one it's called. I like those ones, but I kind of quit smoking to be honest with you. I think I'm done with it. I may have the occasional fucking cigar, but now that I'm getting life insurance, and it's just like, all right,
Starting point is 01:05:15 I gotta get this nicotine out of my system so I can pass the fucking test and everything. When I saw the difference in rates, just even being a passive smoker, I was just like, wow. They obviously know that this means this shit's gonna fucking kill you. So I was kind of like, who am I fooling here
Starting point is 01:05:29 if I just clean myself up? So I think I'm kind of done. Like I'll smoke a cigar. I don't know. I'll smoke a cigar where you're supposed to, where it's an actual moment, as opposed to just being like, oh man, I always smoke cigars,
Starting point is 01:05:45 and now I'm kind of feeling that itched to smoke one, so I'll smoke one. But anyways, I gotta get running here. I gotta go do Conan. I'll say some more shit probably about politics, and then you guys can give me shit, like I'm the one fucking running things. I told you a long time ago,
Starting point is 01:05:58 that's it, go fuck yourselves, and I'll check in on you on Thursday. Bye.
