Alright, I finally learned how to say it.
It only took you 10 months, buddy!
It took me 10 months to figure out how to say that shit.
And you probably wanted to be like,
well, Bill, who told you?
Were you down at a coffee shop with your legs crossed,
a pair of shorts on, wearing a tweed jacket?
Somebody came walking over.
Excuse me, the proper one to show you.
No!
I actually...
Last night I watched the...
I had recorded the Boston Bruins play
in the Philadelphia Flyers!
The first game of the season,
because I wanted to watch them raise the Stanley Cup banner.
And you could tell the Bruins had won one in a long time,
because the fucking ceremony to raise that thing
was almost as long as the drought.
It was awesome.
They dragged out every fucking...
Coming up next to speak,
we got Kenny Linsman, the rat!
We got from these very Philadelphia Flyers.
Way back in 1983,
we carried them for fucking who gives a shit.
Um...
They skated around with the cup,
because when we won it, we did it in Vancouver.
Dude, you see in Vancouver,
they had the fucking riots, dude.
What the fuck?
It's just a game, right, kid?
Um...
So anyways, they actually talked about it
when they were announcing all the Bruins Stanley Cups.
I can't even remember the years.
They were like,
they first won in 1926,
they won their second one in 1939,
then in 1941,
and of course the Bobby Orr years, 1970, 1972,
and now, for the first time in 39 years,
in 2011!
And the fucking light went off in my head.
I'm like, oh, that's how you say it.
Which is great,
because I have a high society party
that I'm going to later on this week.
I don't know about you guys,
I don't know if you've realized, you know,
my comedy career is going alright,
and I'm starting to be invited to socialite parties.
You know, which is just a bunch of people in there
who have nothing to say,
and they drink drinks with their little fingers sticking out,
and I'm starting to go to those parties.
You know, socialites are famous in France.
What the fuck? No, no, not socialites.
What the fuck are they?
Just people who are smart and want to comment on shit.
What do you call those people?
What's a socialite?
You know what a socialite is?
That's some fucking whore who was good looking, right?
And when she was done blowing her fucking math teacher
so she could graduate,
she went out and fucking married a guy who was in his 50s,
who was going to be some sort of senator.
That's what a socialite is, right?
Oh, I know, you're that hard of you,
bangs that guy who's fucking 30 years older than you,
and then you guys got married, had a couple of kids, right?
That's you. You're a fucking socialite.
Now you're going to walk around and pick out the drapes
at the fucking White House.
Oh, yeah?
What do you think about global warming?
Oh, go fucking blow some.
Because you're a whore.
Oh, what, you're not really?
So you're telling me that old fucking debt?
Well, let me finish. Let me finish.
You're telling me, well, of course you're not going to let me finish
because you know what I'm going to say and you know I'm right.
Ah, with the tears, stop it. How old are you?
You're letting your best years go by, okay?
And you're cashing in love to be in this old dusty fucking mansion
here on Pennsylvania Avenue.
Isn't that what you're doing here?
So you can do what?
Nice pair of shoes.
What do you think about when you go down on that old man?
How do you block out those salt and pepper pubes
just coming at you like you're watching fucking pubic avatar?
How do you do that, lady?
Lady!
How do you do that?
Okay, I'm trying to help.
I know you think I'm crass.
I don't give a fuck.
The world rejected my sperm, lady.
Okay?
Well, that means you should listen to me.
You should listen to me because I'm going to tell you the fucking truth.
I got nothing to lose.
I don't.
Have you even considered blowing me since I first walked in here?
Well, that's what I'm saying.
That's what I'm saying, okay?
You need to fucking dump this guy.
And you need to go back and talk to that fucking
guy you went to high school with who now works down at the mobile station
and goes, would you like me to check your oil?
Not trying to intrude in your life,
but I think he needs some more wiper blades.
That guy made your heart go pitter-patter.
Fucking socialite.
You put your pussy on the table to live in an old house.
It's just as long as everybody watched.
The fuck is wrong with you?
That's what a socialite is, everybody.
That was kind of nice, wasn't it?
It's like a little soap opera,
except nobody died and came back.
Right now you should be asking yourself,
Bill, why do you got that raspy sound in your voice?
I'll tell you why.
I'll tell you why, because I have one thing and one thing only
in my stand-up comedy writer.
Isn't that a big thing for all you people?
All you people who aren't in show business, all you lesser people,
you know, who every once in a while show business tips our hats to,
and we go, you know who the real heroes are?
Those guys out there collecting the trash.
Those are the real heroes.
Those guys who get up, you know, anonymously
and put in an honest eight-hour work, work week,
you know, when they do that shit.
Let me ask you this, are you dumb enough to believe that?
Do you think those politicians who tell you that shit
are those showbiz phonies like myself?
We actually mean that shit?
We don't, we don't look at you guys like that.
You know, we look at you, we look at you the same way
Ray Liotta's character looked at you when Goodfellas.
Remember that?
That was for, what did he, what did he call you guys?
You fucking lunch pail motherfuckers.
What did he call you?
What is wrong?
Can I have more self-sabotage?
I'm literally trashing 98%, but you know what?
I'm fucking right.
Nobody, when they were a kid, fantasized,
someday I'm gonna work in a cubicle.
And right as I'm sitting there, you know,
trying to make it a little more homey in there,
some douchebag was gonna lean on the thing
just like in that movie office.
Yeah, I'm gonna need you to work Saturday.
Nobody, nobody dreamed about that, right?
So what do you do? You go out, you get married,
bang out a couple of kids,
and you're filled with such love
that that love somehow
beats down the misery
of your fucking day job.
That's the ultimate goal, that you could actually
get married, have kids, fill that love
for your kids while also having
your fucking dream job.
You know? You know what happens
when you achieve that level of happiness?
A fucking safe falls on your head.
I think cause you, God just kills you.
He kills you.
You know why? Cause you figured out life.
Which is, I think that's your test.
Your test here
from the fucking guy in the sky.
You know, the old guy with the fucking bearded baby son
that he just fucking, I don't know what he did.
He fucking side-armed it into fucking Mary's Ahuha.
Like Kent DeCulvey,
my favorite baseball reference ever.
He just threw it in there.
That's what he did.
He did a, what would you call it?
He did like a, what do they call that?
Immaculate fucking Bukaki.
He fucking, you remember when Dave Parker
threw that fucking guy out from the warning track?
Was it at the All-Star game?
He was at the warning track.
Three Rivers!
Three Rivers Stadium!
Right?
He fucking took the ball
from the warning track and just threw it.
And this ball was like six feet off the ground
the entire way, which is impossible
if you know anything about physics and gravity.
Well Bill actually, no matter how fast he threw it,
immediately that object is going to start to drop.
I know, but whatever.
It looked like it was six feet fucking high.
The entire way through a frozen fucking rope
strike right to the catcher and nailed the runner coming in.
That's what God did.
With his supreme
baby-making stuff
and he just, you know,
off the barn, past the yak,
off the goat's horn,
nothing but veg.
And you wonder why
I'm not on iTunes anymore.
I'm starting to think that there's a conspiracy theory.
This is some sort of podcast censorship.
Yeah, when you figure out life,
God kills you.
How funny would it be if I was a guest speaker
at a fucking church
and I somehow flimflam my way in there.
I came to town in a sky blue fucking suit
with brown cowboy boots
and some sort of white frilly,
not a frilly shirt, like a western shirt.
And then I had one of those western ties,
you know, like Sam Houston War
down there in the fucking Alamo.
Come on, keep coming, you fucking south of the border,
motherfuckers.
You can kill us,
but you can't kill Whitey
because he's coming over in them boats.
Oh, really?
We'll figure out how to make a chalupa.
You don't scare me.
I didn't know what I'm talking about this week.
Yeah, once you figure out life, God kills you.
That's basically what happens.
You know?
Happens to all my Stevie Ray Vaughn,
figured out life.
You know, he fucking, he got sober.
He's telling everybody else to get sober
and he starts singing about little baby's laughter, right?
All of a sudden he figured it out.
God's like, alright, he passed the test.
Time to go up to fucking Utopia.
That's what I think happens.
You know, and you know what the great thing about that theory is,
is there's at least nine million examples of why it isn't true.
And right there, that makes a Bill Burr theory fucking airtight,
just for the simple fact that I love to argue.
But doesn't it seem like that?
Sam Kinnison figured it out, got sober,
was fucking doing the right thing.
I'm not doing drugs, I'm fucking doing my shit.
And God was just like, alright, you figured it out.
Come on in.
So, you know, something, all this shit that I've talked about religion,
maybe that's why I keep fucking my life up,
because I know the day I figure it out,
I got a safe that's gonna land on my head.
Although my head's so big, I think I could,
he'd have to drop two of them.
He'd have to do those, he'd have to drop one of those safes,
you know, the ones that you can like walk into.
Oh, you can't even tell me that you don't,
why don't you want to own one of those
and have those in your house, behind your desk,
just one of those ones, you know,
where you fucking turn the handle down
and it opens up like the double doors,
like one of those big old houses
that those socialite whores live in.
And this is the foyer, right?
And all our resentful slut friends are showing up,
going, why did I blow his senator?
Why did I choose love, right?
And then they start fucking resenting
their fucking socialite girlfriend,
they start looking at their fucking guy
that they truly love,
who opened a hardware store
and they start resenting him
and they start skipping around town
with some JR Hewing guy, right?
And then they blow up the whole marriage,
they marry the fucking guy,
and they get some old fucking house
that some slave owner used to be
and it's considered a great man
because his name is on the fucking
Declaration of Independence, right?
And they get some pepper pews, bang, bang, bang,
coming against them, right?
Then one day they finally, they just, they got a boost.
They gotta numb themselves up
and then one day they realize this is bullshit.
Then they go back to their other boyfriend
or husband or whatever.
I was so wrong, I choose,
I chose money and salt and pepper
pews over my true love for you, right?
And the second you get back together,
I love you, I love you too.
You me and this El Camino,
that's all I fucking need.
What happens?
Fucking train comes by, kills them both.
Everybody says it's a tragedy.
No, you fucking figured it out.
You figure out life, you die.
You figure out life, you die.
You figure out life, you die.
You figure out life, you die.
Oh god, what am I talking about?
So anyways, you're probably wondering,
why Bill? Why the fuck?
You know, it's a goddamn shame
is how few people are gonna hear this fucking podcast
because of those demons
who are there at iTunes.
You know?
Those motherfuckers. You know what I'm gonna do?
I'm gonna create my own iTunes.
You know? Called B-Tunes.
Right? BB-Tunes.
Only for cool people.
How much does this sound like a stoner conversation?
You know we should do, man.
We should just like come up
with our own iTunes, right?
And it like doesn't cost
any money, man.
And everybody just hangs out.
Then we can come friends with ACDC, man.
Speaking of which,
the level of fucking respect
that I have for Malcolm Young
of ACDC
and Angus.
You know, if you really listen
to what those guys are doing,
the way
they start off a song,
the way they build it
and then the way they just draw back
and punch you in the fucking face
musically,
sonically with their guitars
is fucking unbelievable.
And, uh,
for those of you who don't play guitar or whatever,
I'm telling you, if you just want to see it,
there's these two kids who actually
they, I call them kids.
They're fucking young adults, but I'm an old man.
Hey, kid, get over here.
Come over here, you whippersnapper. I'm 23.
Um,
they, they actually do a cover
like back in black,
which it's just fucking
it's just fucking amazing.
They're really good players, too.
And just watching like the kid with the big
orange gratch guitar, he's playing the Malcolm part
and the other kid with the SG's doing the, uh,
the Angus part and they play back in black
and the palm mutes and just
all the little fucking shit.
You know, a lot of people
think what they do
is easy.
Because when you get a guitar, you can kind of fake it
when you first get it, but then you really break down
what the fuck it is that they're doing
and the genius
and the fucking ability
to
write a song with three chords
that is going to make 80,000 people
absolutely lose their shit
that's going to go through the fucking chest
of somebody who at that point
is realistically sitting about a quarter
of a mile away from your fucking amplifier
and they're going to be in the back row
getting goose bumps.
The fucking ability to do that.
I still don't think that those guys
have gotten the fucking recognition that
that they do.
I don't, I don't know what it, I don't know why.
But I have to tell you this
now that I've gone on to YouTube
and I've just fucking devoured every
ACDC, I know
I've talked about this before, video that I've ever seen
um
the next time they do a
world tour, I'm going to go see
those guys down in South America
I'm going to see them down, I don't know
where, somewhere down there
because
I am like embarrassed at the
crowd that I was, and I was part of the problem
I was standing there like, you know, I'm old
man, I can't jump around, but I totally
appreciate what's going on
fucking here at the LA Forum
legendary play, Zeppelin play there
these other people, you know
and when I saw the way the crowd act and like
fucking Argentina or something
where it was just like 80,000 people
in unison
fucking jumping up
and down, the rush that that must give
the band, they must feel like they're doing a matinee
when they came to
the fucking place I was at, we would
it was embarrassing
so
I am, I am
at some point going to fucking go back
to my
Rosetta Stone Spanish, and I'm going to learn how to speak
that shit, because for some reason I think
if I'm fluent in Spanish
I can go down
to South America
with that South America
why did that just pop in my head
remember that fucking song that David Bowie
and
Mick Jagger did
dancing in the streets
and they were rubbing their asses together
and they were yelling all the fucking places
different countries out
and then Mick Jagger goes South America
and it made me like the stones
a little bit less
anyways, I figure if I can go down
there to South America
I would fucking
if I could speak the language I could
talk my way out of being kidnapped
you know
you ever watch that show, Arrested Abroad
Abroad
you ever seen that shit, fucking people go down
well I think you don't think I'm going to do this martial artist guy
I think I'm going to fucking ride a motorcycle
from here to the tip of South America
you know
and guess what happens
it gets like a third of the way there
he goes left on fucking Venezuelan
instead of right on fucking
chalupa, right
next thing you know he's there a bunch of fucking gorillas
and they're just looking at like
is this like entrapment
there's no way it's this easy
did a fucking white guy
in a goddamn Vespa
just turned down this dirt road
in the middle of the fucking rainforest
is there a fucking death squad behind this guy
you know what, I just figure if you actually spoke
the language instead of these people walking around
right
cause that's what Spanish sounds like
to a white man like me
until you fucking break it down
I just think that that would be good
to be laying in the tent going dude
we're not going to fucking kill this guy right now
we're going to kill him tomorrow instead of it sounding like
and then maybe you could figure out how to get out of there
see that's what I do
so like you know what I've always wanted to do
I want to go to the
to the
the Galapagos Islands
I want to go down there
I want to stare at a lizard, I want to see what
I want to see what it looked like
before we came in and fucked everything up
you know
which by the way
reminds me if I think
one of the most brilliant fucking analogies
I've ever heard
I don't know where I saw this but Joe Rogan has a bit
and it's on YouTube so I don't feel like
I saw him at a club and I'm burning a new joke
I saw it on fucking YouTube
he did a bit about how he was flying
in a plane and he was looking out
looking at all the trees, all the lakes, all this beautiful nature
and then he came to some major city
and just started seeing
all the houses and all the buildings
and he compared human beings
he said we're like a fungus
and I'm not going to do the rest
I'll butcher it but I was
it's just fucking brilliant
it's exactly it so I want to go down to the
Galapagos Islands
basically as Rogan puts it
to get away from the fungus
I just want to see what did it look like
before
we made all these advancements
you know
I know I'm a part of the problem
so anyways but in order to go there
I think you have to go through Colombia
or Venezuela
you know
those places down there
you know instead of having like
they have like Pablo Francisco
Boulevard I mean I'm not going down
that street
as a god damn redheaded white man
hey how are ya who would like to
kidnap me first and hold me for ransom
you know
you know when they say you got to
watch out who you fucking hang out with
that's one of those times you really have to
watch out who you hang out with
because if you hang out with a bunch of fucking losers
and you get kidnapped and they start demanding money
for you that's going to be a rough one
if you ever think you're going to see the light of day
which brings me
actually
to one of the first questions I wanted to answer
this week somebody asked me for advice
a fellow redhead
let me see here
Bill I'm relatively new to the podcast
I'm listening to
ah Jesus Christ
this isn't the one
this isn't the one I wanted to read
you fucking idiot
Bill you were doing so well in the podcast
everything was going well
what a fuck is it
kid was fucking
no no not now
you know what hang on one second I'm going to hit pause here
I gotta read this hold on a second
this podcast has been too good up to this point
let's have a moment like this right
although some people like it don't you
dude when your podcast sucks
I think that's like the best part
um no no hang on
and through the magic of the
pause button I'm back here we go
so fellow redhead who happens to be
short two drawbacks to getting
laid with the question
dude what has happened to fucking redheads
with their self esteem
if you're a fucking guy you can
look like a troll as long as
you're funny you got some charisma
you got a little bit of money if you're
doing shit in life okay
let me tell you something
if you're a fuck I don't want to
I don't want to do it that way because it's too mean
I was going to flip I was going to flip it there
I'm not going to do that I was going to say
like looks guys give a fuck about looks
women want security
they don't want you to be a fucking mess
but I'm telling you there becomes a point where you can
offer such security
that you're uh you're going to get a hearty
alright so stop being a bunch of
pussies dragging me down
with you you fucking assholes
Jesus Christ there's people
born without fucking the legs
you know you hear them
bitchin
um oh I can't get a tan
no one's going to want to fuck me
um alright let's plow ahead
uh Bill at what point do you tell your
asshole friend to go fuck himself
hahahaha
oh I love this question
he says is there a way to
make it permanent without seem
seeming like the bigger asshole
I hate not addressing
issues directly and like the
the clean break
and I like the clean break
like telling an ex-girlfriend you are a whore
now kindly leave the premises
um however telling my friend
who has grown into a
sanctimonious holier than now
ultra-liberal douche
he's not worth my time on this planet
will potentially make my social life
difficult since we are in the same
circle of friends isn't this stuff
this is one of the most fascinating things
about male relationships
that a lot of people don't talk about
is when you have an unhealthy
one with one of your
friends and you literally have
to break it off
like you're breaking up with the chick
which makes it even more awkward because then
it feels like kind of gay on some level
and most guys you know not
they were just not good with like uh
you know
sitting down and discussing feelings
like I don't feel good
about myself when I'm around you
I can't say that
you gotta be like dude you're a fucking dick
go fuck yourself
that's basically the level of it so I kind of know
what this guy's going through hey Bill
I got an idea why don't you shut the fuck up
read the rest of the letter and let
this guy tell us what he's going through
okay that's a good point
um however telling my friend
who has grown into a sanctimonious blah blah blah
I said that the other friends that I share
with this guy do not see this side
of him
you're really sounding like a battered wife
right now like what he slaps you
around verbally and then you guys go out
in public as you stare at the floor
and everybody thinks he's what the greatest
guy ever and you're just shy
just getting kind of sad
um anyways he goes
he hides it except when I'm just hanging out
with him at the bar
this is kind of making you sound like a psycho
to put this in his perspective here
some examples of the douche baggery
the fact that you use douche baggery just
redeemed you um that I see from him
one random Joe Sixpack
throws his cigarette onto the street
my douche bag friend will go out
of his way to pick the cigarette butt
up and tell Joe Sixpack
hey you dropped something asshole
and proceed to bitch and moan
like the cunt he is even though
the fucker my friend
drives a Hummer
um
you know yeah but the Hummer you know it's not leaking
oil all over the place
there's nothing wrong with driving a Hummer there really isn't
there's just too many people doing it it's the population
it's not the cars
alright
I used to joke about that there was 8 people on the fucking
planet we could all drive tanks
number 2
politics his opinion is right
everyone else is stupid
number 2 that he hates on politics
his opinion is right
everyone else is stupid and wrong
done end the story
number 3 he tells really bad jokes that do not make sense
or have context which he then
proceeds to laugh uproarsely at
4 gives unwanted advice
regarding my job that he has never
done has no knowledge of
and still assumes my 13 years of
experience are of no value
because of an article he once read
Forbes magazine
5 cheats on his girlfriend and justifies it
by saying she just suck my dick
I mean that's it
so he says what do you do
I'm leaning towards the go fuck yourself and leave me
be approach and let my friends
see what an ego maniac this guy is
thoughts
on if it's better if there's
a better way thanks
um
oh Jesus you said something up here
earlier that kind of stuck out
um
is there a way to make it permanent
without seeming like the bigger
asshole yeah
there's a way to do that and the way to
do it is when you tell this guy to fuck off
is you don't tell him to fuck off
you just lay it on the line
you just say listen
you know your your your opinions
on politics are
are just
it's overbearing
you know you screaming at people
you know I don't know this guy enough to put it
eloquently
um
I don't know
the worst thing to do is just be like dude
I think you're a douche go fuck yourself
then you will seem like an asshole
you know I don't even know how to do this
I had a situation like this a long time ago
there was a friend of mine he was just a fucking
he just kept smoking weed
kept smoking weed
every fucking this wasn't guy you know smoke weed
whatever and then fucking showed up to work on time
this guy went to work high and fucked up
okay just like an Alki
you know you can have a couple you know you can get drunk
on the weekends but you know Monday through Friday
you're stone sober I don't think you have a drinking problem
you just like to drink
same thing with weed you know after work
you fucking take a couple of toks
you giggle at the fucking news you go to sleep
who gives a shit right but when it starts fucking
with your life and you start flunking drug tests
and you start losing jobs
you know
and your wife's threatening to leave you
right that type of shit
I don't know what did I end up doing
I just uh
I just kind of stopped
returning calls is what I did
which is probably I don't know like a pussy way
you know what it was is I was so angry
at the dude
that I knew that if we actually had
the discussion
I was gonna say something really fucked up
so that's how I handled it
because I have a ridiculous temper
and uh
one of the things about having a temper
is
that a lot of times what it is is as
see all this shit is happening to you
he's doing all this shit
and are you calling him out on any of it
I mean
if you already still a cunt then this guy's one of the
biggest cunts ever but like sometimes like
somebody's doing something and that annoys you
and you don't bring it up
and when you don't bring it up then when they start
to do something else that wouldn't really have annoyed you
you're already uh
you know it's like someone just slapped you
in the side of the face so your face is already
stinging and then they slap you again
it's gonna hurt even more so it starts to exaggerate
everything that they're doing you literally
sound like some some fucking chicken
relationship who wants to hit her fucking
husband in the back of the head with the frying pan
and he has no clue no idea
so uh
yeah this guy sounds like a dick
he definitely sounds like a dick
uh
you know what I would do with this guy I just
stop hanging out with him
hey what are you doing today you're doing
nah I'm busy
that's kind of passive aggressive
I maybe just
tell him to say listen dude I don't know what it is
about you but I just really don't like you anymore
I just don't
you're a dick you know
you fuck around your girlfriend good for you
go fuck around don't know why you gotta drag me into it
why do I have to know about it
now I look at your girlfriend
when she shows up now I gotta figure out like
which part of her face I'm gonna stare at
instead of looking her in the eye you're dragging me
into it
you know you're telling me how to do my job
you're a moron you don't know what you're talking about
all your bullshit
you just you just fucking annoying
yeah why do you care dude you don't even like this guy
you know what's weird is that whole situation
just really made me uncomfortable
you know
I've definitely had like fallen
out with people but I've never like literally sat down
as a guy
and broke up with another guy
because that's that's literally what you're doing
listen
listen
Harry I don't want to see you anymore
this relationship
isn't working out for me that's basically what
you're saying this is hilarious this is a really
like sex in the city moment here
it's not working out for you you're not
your needs aren't being met
he doesn't
look you in the eye anymore with tenderness
when he asks you what you want when he's going up
to buy a round of beers
yes he like this this is like something
that guys were I don't know if it's
not socially acceptable why is it making
me so uncomfortable to even talk about this
um you know what
forget everything I said I think that the way
guys do it is the way you should do it
just say listen uh you know what
you're a fucking dick
you're a dick go fuck yourself
go fuck yourself
and that's it you have a big fight with
him and then you know
when he calls you don't not
take his calls just pick up the phone
yeah hey what's up listen
yeah it sounds like fun but you know
what I I still think you're a dick
tell you what I'll call you
when I don't think you're a douche bag
anymore how about that
oh you're gonna yell at me now
well this is the greatest thing about
being on the phone with a douche click
and that that's it how about that
Jesus it only took me 10 minutes
you know it's funny I make it funny but I know
I know what that's like
that like being friends with a guy like
that a guy like that is funny
in your college years but as you get older
um considering you said you had a job
for 13 years doing something even
if you're right out of high school 18 years
you're you're in your 30s
so a guy like this
you can't hang out with a guy like that anymore
um
yeah he's a fucking loser
and being a loser
is contagious the same way
being successful is if you hang out with
successful people you know you get dragged up
if you hang out with fucking losers
they're a goddamn anchor around your neck
and they drag you down to the bottom
the next thing you know you're hanging out
at that bar you know that sports bar
and you go in there right
just like cheers
you know that's what that
short cheers really taught you
taught you how to be a fucking loser
making your way in the world today
thanks to everything you got
right you can walk in it
hey norm
everybody's happy to see you
well you like to get away
and they had the failed
athlete and rather than he couldn't make
the jump from high school
to fucking college they actually
you know he actually played for the red sucks
like actually successful
not right there is where you know it's a tv show
that was just
a bunch of losers avoiding their personal
lives and their shortcomings and they would go down
there and they would just fucking
we'll all go down
together right
at some point
you got you got to get
out of the bars you got to get out of there
because what happens is
first you go to the bars
because you want to get laid
you know how to talk to the broads
everybody's fucking nervous
so everybody drinks
you know you get to get uninhibited
they turn the music up so nobody can hear
your awful fucking opening lines
and then you drag a couple of skanks
out of there and you know you end up getting
crabs right
so
you know what I mean
bars are for young people
and then what happens is you get older
now you're this older guy and you start
thinking like dude am I like too old to be going
hey what's your major
it's only five six years when I'm 56
she'll be 50 it's not that bad
you start lying to yourself and then all of a sudden
the years start flying by
then you're 35
and it's fucking ridiculous because when you first
started going to that bar that person
that you're hitting on
was was sitting down
mom mom look look I can do
a a b c d e f g
right
they're trying to fuck that
and it just gets worse every year
and the smart people
and the people who aren't
like emotionally damaged
and came from good backgrounds
they're basically leaving
you know what the bar is
that's like the fucking NFL draft
for regular people
you know when all the good ones get taken
in like the first round
first couple of rounds that's your 20s
then you go into your 30s
first round
start looking at some people from Appalachian state
you know some chicks Jesus Christ
she came from the foothills of
she grew up with some rednecks
her dad had a meth problem
but yeah she got nice tits right
so what I'm saying is dude I think
I think you're at a point in your life
you're at a point in your life you want to get out of the bars
you want to stop hanging out with shithead so
I would just say just do that
where do the smart people hang out
is it wine bars
what do smart people do
actually you know most of what I just said
was bullshit there's a lot of people that get scared
they get scared in the first two rounds
you know they start believing in the person who won
the fucking heisman trophy
like they're gonna pan out
you know what do they do
they end up with fucking ryan leaf with a vagina
then they have a couple of fucking kids
thinking that that's gonna make it better and they don't know
they don't know
then they just implode the whole fucking team
if I said anything
that's made sense for the last 20 minutes
anything at all
you want to move on to another question
oh absolutely oh by the way
by the way
this time next week
I will not be here in this country
I'm gonna be
when you hear my podcast next week
I'll be talking about the gig I did in London
the night before
I have my big fancy European trip that I'm taking
I'm gonna be in London, England
and the show
is fucking sold out
I'm psyched
the Leicester Square Theatre
I sold out a show
on the other side of the planet
actually technically not the other side of the planet
it's probably like a third of the planet away
that's gotta be about 50% of the way there right
any math geeks out there
configure that math up
and after I go to London
then I go on
to basically
Hitler's summer tour
you know like if he actually won the war
and he wanted to summer
he would go to Copenhagen, Oslo
Helsinki and Stockholm, Sweden
that's like his Fort Lauderdale
Cancun
once they keep getting
white on you
and I am gonna feel
uglier as I go along
if I go to London I'm gonna feel
like a movie star there
you know those people are
they fucking booze
they don't lift weights
they just have those straight arms
they have the beer bellies
and then they wear tight shirts
occasionally they'll brush their teeth
why would I do that
they all bought tickets
why would I fucking do that
no I'm beyond excited
to go back over there
I'm not liking the flight
it's because I'm taking my fucking lady
it's gonna be awesome
I'm not sweating the London gig
I know I could do well in Sweden
because I was there before
I'm just nervous
about the English speaking abilities
this is what it is at this point
I think
Norway's gonna sell out
or Finland's gonna sell out
and then the other one I've only sold
like 60 tickets
so I gotta make some fucking
videos this week to go on to fucking
Scandinavian
fucking internet over there
I don't know what I have to do here
but anyways oh let's talk sports here
so anyways I'm really excited about that
other than the flight over there so I ponyed up
so I'm actually gonna fucking lose
money because
this is something I haven't mentioned
I am carpet bombing
over there
my DVD I'm bringing a ton of DVDs out there
and I'm basically giving them away
when I'm over there and your job
should you choose to accept it
because I'm only doing this once
is to take these DVDs
you take these sons of bitches
and you show them to all your motherfucking friends
come to my hospital have a party
and pop my fucking DVD
and
alright show it to them and say this is a funny
fucking American and next time I come there
maybe there'll be 70 people
oh fuck anyways
let's plow ahead um let's talk
sports this week I'm actually
really concerned
I'm really concerned
I've had my heart broken
okay because I told you during that
epic Red Sox
collapse
everything great about it was for the first
time since game three
of the 2004 ALCS
I actually saw
Yankee fans
they all came out of the woodwork
hey don't
trip over Paul Revere's
foot when you're choking on your baked
beans
all those fucking horrific
unfunny fucking texts
tweets
some comedian friends of mine
he has not I know I see him in clubs
but haven't talked sports in fucking seven years
they all come out of the woodwork
you know and as much as it sucked
it took to take the shit I sat there
and I took it
but I was like but you know
the bright side hey I got to reconnect with a bunch
of people I haven't seen in a long time well you know what
in one week
the New York Yankees
lost
to the Detroit Tigers
in the divisional playoff series
of Jets yesterday lost to the New England Patriots
and guess what
all my New York friends
they all disappeared again
no texts
no phone calls
no nothing
I mean the Patriots beat the Jets
it's almost been 24 hours
24 hours have gone by I think officially
at this point I can start submitting a missing
person's report right
it's fucking unreal listen
I'm not talking about you cunts
who send me emails
or any of that type of shit
on the podcast because I talk shit
you know because it's funny it gets you guys going
and then you guys send me shit
you trash me and it fuels the podcast
I mean I do it by myself
it's a very small operation here so I need
the input from you guys but basically
in my personal life
all that shit that I do I don't do that shit
like Paul Verzi is a big time Yankee fan
I didn't give him shit he didn't give me shit
I just don't do that because
then you have like the sports bar
is like in your life
and you can't fucking escape it
and I'd rather sit there
and try and figure out why it happened
rather than listening to people
going like hey next time
you have a hero
I hope there's not a fucking
tiger in it because they're fucking
dying right
that stupid shit that sports talk
radio moron who calls up like I
can't deal with that shit so
one of these guys
one of these sports talk
radio morons had called me up
and I'm sitting there trash and I'm going dude
you haven't called me since game 3
to call me now
this is just gay this is ridiculous
what are you doing
I don't even buy
is this you or is this your girlfriend
do you tie your jersey off at the waist
what are you doing here
I only hear from you
I was shut up I only hear from you
when the sun shined I said it to this
guys you know I go you never around
when all of a sudden your teams lose
you always fucking disappear right
so he's like oh yeah you wait
Jets are playing the Patriots
you're gonna hear from me after that one son
you're gonna hear from me after that game son
Patriots beat the Jets
guess who I didn't hear from
Yankees lose to the Tigers
guess who hasn't text me
guess who went back into fucking hiding
it's unbelievable
I have other friends where we talk shit
all the fucking time but they're around
you know
they're there in 0-4 when that team loses
they're there when the Giants beat the Patriots
they're there when the fucking
Bruins win the Stanley Cup
they're fucking there we break each other's balls
it's fine
these other people do you guys have friends like that
you just haven't heard from them for fucking years
and that team finally wins
it's the fucking
most pussiest fucking move ever
ever
but I gotta tell you I feel
I feel vindicated on everything I said
about fucking Mark Sanchez
alright
I told you
who that guy was
I told you where that guy was
in the fucking quarterback
I'm doing it I'm saying dude I called it
anybody sitting there freaking out
cause he has like a fucking
700-600-700 win percentage
it's like it's cause of his defense
now look
last year there was no salary cap
and the Jets went all out totally respect that
got all these fucking guys
now there's a salary cap now they're not what they were
alright
and this game manager
is exactly what that's what he is
he manages the fucking game
he does not have an ability
like the superstars of the league
to take over a fucking game
one of those guys
despite the fact despite
his supporting cast
he still fucking willed them
that's what makes a fucking superstar alright
and like I said last week that's why people can't stand
New York because you mother fuckers
you scratch your ass
and in New York you become a superstar
it's fucking ridiculous and I'm sick of it
and having said all that
before I get any shit I realize
that the Red Sox are just as bad as the New York Yankees
and I would never argue with
and I can even tell you when that moment happened
it happened when we signed Eric Gagnier
in September of 2007
I didn't even watch that World Series
we became you know it's funny we got
Gagnier and then he went in and he started blowing all these
saves and I thought it was fucking hilarious on some level
did you Bill what else did you think
ah fuck
this is like a movie that starts off awesome
and then it just fucking
I like the beginning and then
I don't know I just thought it fucking faded away
there was something else I wanted to read here
ah Jesus and this guy had underrated overrated
he had all these things what happened to it
what happened to it where is
where is it right here it's not there
is it right here
question from a fan I got it
Bill I'm relatively new to the podcast
this is actually an interesting question
so let me start smoking a pipe
and cross my legs here
to show you that this is actually interesting
why are all these feathers coming out of this
fucking comforter
cause it's old
anyways plow ahead here Bill
I'm relatively new to the podcast so I'm listening
to back episodes now
and I love your work thanks
for entertaining us
I am the same age as you so I completely relate
understand and remember
many of the things you recount from childhood
question do you always speak the way that you
do on the podcast and in your stand up
do you tone it down
when you're around yours or your girlfriend's family
I noticed that many people who write to you
write the way you speak it seems a little
forced but I enjoy hearing other listeners
talk about issues and question
I wonder if they speak that way all the time
this guy's really going colombo
I just gotta wrap my head around this
do you speak this way
of course I don't
sometimes I do and when I do I get into fights
you know
that's a good question do I
oh look when I'm around my mom
I obviously don't say
I won't even say the word I don't drop the C word
when I fucking go to church
you know the few times a year I go there
I don't curse or try not to
maybe a few times during
one of the stories I'll be like
oh jeez you know I'll do stuff
like that but I don't
um
yeah no I don't
this podcast is completely
over the top it's completely you know what the fuck I said
earlier
can you get that stuff about the
uh the kentakov thing
I mean that's fucking ridiculous I don't
speak that way
um but I do curse a lot
and I grew up around
everybody cursed where I was from everybody
cursed we just we just
did it yeah you stop your toe you fucking
said you dropped the F word
and every once in a while
hey hey hey watch your mouth but other than
that no
so do I speak this way yes
and no I have a few
places where I don't speak
that way if I go to church I won't I'm not
that big of a dick
just because I don't believe it I'm gonna go there and ruin it
for somebody else you don't believe it why'd you show up
if you showed up then shut
your face I respect that you know what I mean
that's kind of like when you
uh like those corporate gigs
hey you want to come down here
and stand on a picnic table
and do stand up with
no microphone in front of our company no
I don't we'll give you seven zillion dollars
okay
and then you go down there and because
you're standing there you just stand on stage
or the picnic table and bitch about how
the gig sucks it's like well then
don't take the fucking money
that's how I look at going to church I'm not gonna go there
and ruin it for other people
and I gotta you know I don't think people who
uh go to church really listen to this podcast
and if you do that's your fault
right you like
that I blame you
um anyways overrated
uh airplane aisle seats
why would you want to constantly get bumped by
people's asses
and the drink cart drink cart throughout
the flight I'll take a window seat where
I can curl up against the side of the cabin
as far away as possible from
the damn stinky person sitting next
to me dude I really gotta
I gotta give you that one because that's what I was
thinking when I came back from uh
came back from Dallas Texas
I had a great weekend out there
by the way great
weekend as you can tell with my raspy voice
you know I have a raspy voice
did I talk about this yet
the one thing that I have in my rider
is that they didn't
get me on my little fucking throat coat
T the motor oil for my throat
they didn't get it that's all I have get me the organic
throat coat T
that's all I have in my rider
and that little sought off son of a bitch
Jeffrey
out there at the club couldn't get it done
he did the ol oh smack
to the forehead the first night oh
jeepers creepers
Friday night
ah
I knew I forgot something
Saturday night he doesn't even show up
I had a fucking oh you know what
I went to the cotton ball
I went come on Tasey
I went out there to the
I almost forgot to talk about this
the UT Oklahoma game
it was fucking unbelievable even though
it was a total blowout
in Oklahoma kicked the shit out of
the University of Texas it's fucking unbelievable
okay
and I'm going to tell you right now sports fans on the east coast
by the east coast
I mean north of
Washington DC
all you motherfuckers out there
like myself who look down
on college sports because college sports
for the most part basically suck
in the New York area
Boston area Philly
there's nobody good there every once in a while
maybe in the 80's St. John's Villanova
the basketball teams were good
right
Boston College Eagles with Doug Flutie
we've had our moments but in general
even like our stadiums they're just little fucking things
out there you know
I think even if you go to a BC Eagle game
you can still see the dorm rooms in the parking lot
that's when you know like
like you're watching a
less than prolific fucking
college program is when they line up
for the field goal and you just watching
like you know like a freeway
like Dr. Traylor's going by
there's always like grass
or part of your stadium
is lawn seats
I think that's when you know
but anyways east coast fans
of football you owe it to yourself at some point
just pick one of those games
go to Michigan Ohio State
go to Oklahoma
University of Texas
go to LSU
Alabama
LSU Florida
go down to the swamp
go to a Florida Gator's game
go to one of those big ass fucking gangs
put some money on the game and I'm telling you
it's absolutely insane
um
and we went to it and it was
it was incredible what was driving me nuts
was this one guy behind me I swear to god
it's almost like going to the movies like this
there's always going to be one loud person behind you
do you know that shit they do in college football
like
when they go to kick the ball off or like it's a critical
part in the game and the uh
the away team has the ball
and you don't want them to be able to hear the snap count
so the whole crowd's just going
ahhhhhhh
just yelling right
there was only one guy in my section
doing that and he was right behind me
and I got to give it to this guy
he did it for the entire half
anytime Oklahoma had the ball
I mean I'm talking like
as they were calling the play in
they're doing hand signals
and this guy's trying to
out yell hand signals he's just going
ahhhhhhh
ahhhhhhh
ahhhhhhh
just screaming
for an entire fucking half
and I'm there with Verzi at one point
at first I just look over at Verzi
we both just start laughing just going
this is just funny this guy's really into it
thinking there's no way
that this guy is going to be able
to keep this pace up
it's like watching Lance Armstrong
back in the day when he was winning all his tour to Francis
it's like there's no way he's going to be able to
continue riding this bicycle 30 miles
an hour up this fucking mountain and he always did
and those little Frenchies would come
over right they make him pee in a Dixie cup
and then suckle the blue they couldn't find
anything this guy
I had to change my seat
it was fucking unbelievable
and he was like leaning down
ahhhhhhh
okay that was just when they were calling
the play in and then the guy would
the quarterback would walk up to the line
of scrimmage and then he'd just go up
another octave ahhhhhhh
screaming in my
fucking ear and I'm standing there
right
I already have like it's like this Texas
sun is beating down on me
I'm wide open so I got like I got
sunblock 50 on
I got this big hat on just looking like
the fucking genetically
compromised jackass that I am
and now I got this guy ahhhhhhh
screaming in my ear and I got one
finger in like my right ear
because that's the side he's screaming on
I look like a little old lady
watching this football game
and this is one of the best things about the cotton ball
when you go to that game
you know it's a neutral site
University of Texas is out of Austin
in uh
Oklahoma's Norman Oklahoma I think
and there's such psychos they had to have it
at a neutral site and this is how they split up
the stadium rather than having
one sides Oklahoma the other
side is University of Texas
they split it at the 50
yard line it's the coolest
fucking thing ever so they split it
that way so basically
if you're playing in that game
when you're listening to the crowd you could start
a drive and feel like you're
at a home game and
then you're driving down into the teeth
of it where
the whole other side is the opposite
uh
the opposite team's fans
and all of a sudden you feel like you're in a road game
and that's what it makes that was the best thing
about scoring a fucking touchdown
is either you
running out of enemy territory
into the joy of everybody
going crazy welcome you home
like a fucking war hero
or even better
people are cheering you on and you just
ran into the
enemies fucking front lines
and you just silence all of them
and all of them I noticed
that like it was pretty much Oklahoma
the whole goddamn day when they would score touchdowns
down in the UT and
they would just stand there staring at the crowd
nodding their head
I gotta tell you we saw one of them with the fucking most
insane things that was at the beginning of the game
they had Oklahoma comes out first
you know they come running out everybody's
going crazy it was disappointing
they didn't bring the chuck wagon
you know but uh
and we're just
everybody's going nuts right the guy behind me
is already screaming
right
fuck on you
make some
noise make some noise
yelling that shit right
and then fucking
when Texas came running out
like five guys
on the Sooners came running
right up to them and ran along with them
like doing that you know that shit that
athletes can do where they
galloping sideways faster than
you could drive a fucking Prius
or my car right they're doing that
and they're just nodding their heads talking shit
and the UT players start looking at them
they started talking shit dude I got the fucking
chills I felt like I was gonna play
I'm like this is this game is gonna be
these guys are gonna kill each other they hate each other
that guy behind me
I'm like this is gonna be fucking awesome
and then after like
a quarter and a half
like UT
fucking Oklahoma it was like
fucking 35 to 3
or something
and all the all the Texas people
were fucking bummed out half the stadium
is sitting down and then the other
side is going crazy
and it's not like they're on the other side of the field
we were sitting close to the 50 so Oklahoma fans
were like right next to us
just laughing screaming at us
I just say us because
I was like what whatever section
I'm sitting in I'm rooting for
because I don't want to be a dick right there's no
reason for me to take shit for no fucking reason
right so they're up like
I swear to God it was like 35
maybe like 10 35 to 10
and all the Texas
people just had the winds taken out of their sails
this guy oh man this is just making me sick
making me
fucking sick right every everybody
except for this one guy behind me
he's still now it's dead silence
in our fucking section except
for this one guy
he was
focused
unbelievable fan
I gotta give that guy 5 stars
as a fan but this is the funny thing though
is
at halftime he left
he just he just said fuck it
you know but he definitely put his time in
but that's how bad the
the beat down was
but I gotta tell you I have not getting
a sunburn down
as a redhead I went and I bought a
I bought one of
those t-shirts that had both the helmets on it
just as a souvenir
and
you know the sun was on the left side of me so
I just adjust my hat I just take that
souvenir fucking t-shirt and I just drape it over
had it on my neck and then down
down my right arm
my left arm
and then this fucking guy behind me just starts giving me
shit he's like buddy ain't gonna matter you're gonna burn up
I'm like no it isn't
I go yeah you will man
I go listen I go I fuck I've been a redhead
my whole life
he's like you've been a redhead you whole
I could kick you like you thought it was funny
telling you I have it down
this guy actually one of the funniest things
somebody said to me because
this guy came by
he goes if Oklahoma keeps
scoring you're gonna have to die your beard
if you're not a college football fan
my beard is the same color
just about as the fucking
jerseys of Texas I don't know
it was a fucking awesome time
and it was as a sports fan
it was an honor and a fucking privilege
to go see those two unbelievable
programs even though you know Texas
is rebuilding it's fucking awesome
I totally underrated
underrated professional
football
when you can go there and see a game like that
even though it was a fucking blowout just the tradition
110 year rivalry
I got to parachute in
and sit there and be a part of that
and to see it at that legendary
stadium
the Cotton Bowl which I actually read
a little bit up on
not to bore non-sports fans
but what's amazing was they said it's the house
that Duke built which was
the name of some guy who played for the SMU
Mustangs
who got the death penalty
one of the best 30 for 30s I ever saw
to get an SMU Mustangs shirt
I couldn't find one of my size
that I liked I wanted that Mustang
horse and just for it to say SMU
but you know all the shirts are so fucking
everything looks like an affliction
shirt to me nowadays
but anyways
this guy
Duke Sumpton rather played for the SMU Mustangs
was such a badass and he blew up
their program that they actually
made the Cotton Bowl and that's what SMU
played
then they moved on to the old Dallas Cowboys
stadium
they actually played in a professional
sports stadium and then they got busted
for doing basically what every
other major program was doing
in Texas they got the death penalty
and now they're back
at their uh
they just play at their campus now
they got this stadium which is actually a really nice stadium
but it's only like a 40,000 seater
and uh I didn't realize
that SMU I just thought that was one of those
that's fucking
I don't want to go in the real world I'll go
I'll go to fucking college I'll go to SMU
I kind of judge that school by their
football their football program
