Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey, what's going on? It's Bill Burr and it's time for the Monday Morning Podcast for Monday, May 13th. What's going on? How are ya? Oh, God, another fucking week. Jesus Christ, how come the weekend? Why are the weekends so short? Jesus Christ, how come the weekend why are the weekends so short? Anyway Saw this fucking thing on Instagram because what else would I be doing reading? They showed a clip of the old Mike Douglas show and he already had Liberace out there who was dressed like Liberace And then he had little Richard come out who outdressed Liberace and somebody in the fucking comments section goes back when you could just be who you were
Starting point is 00:00:51 without shoving it down people's faces shoving it down people's throats like being openly gay in the early 70s was better then than it is now. I mean what the fuck are you talking about? These fucking people, I swear to God. My other favorite one is when they post a joke from like 10 years ago. Oh you couldn't do that anymore. It's like you just did it. You just did it.
Starting point is 00:01:18 You just posted it. Everybody saw it today and they laughed. Jesus fucking Christ. Make it great again. That's what dumb white people do. It's like make it great again when a dumb white person was qualified over a smarter black person. The dumbest white guy can get a job over the smartest black person.
Starting point is 00:01:41 That's what it was. Oh, we didn't have a problem with that, right? No problems with that segregation, no problems in affirmative action. We're like, what the fuck? Not saying all of us, but I mean, just those kinds of fucking you know what it is, is dumb people don't want to compete because if it's an actual fair competition that they're not getting a ribbon All right. There we go starting off coming in freckled
Starting point is 00:02:11 I don't have to say hot i'm a ginger. All right, it's redundant Um Anyway, oh god, where do I start? Do you guys have a good mother's day? Did you call your mother? Did you send her a card? Aw, G-ma, I know I put you through a lot. She has to just sit there gritting her teeth
Starting point is 00:02:36 as you're on your fourth marriage. I know I put you through a lot. I know every year to half to seven years I'm sleeping on your couch again like I'm still fucking eight years old But I just want to let you know My I know I put you through a lot When I took the car without permission and wrapped around a pole and you only had minimal coverage. I
Starting point is 00:03:02 Know a lot of times I feel like a mistake, but I just want to say, here are some flowers. I love you. Anyway, so baseball yesterday, they were all wearing, you know, they had a bunch of pink in there from, because it was mom's day, you know, and I actually find a lot of women don't like pink. People who are like, you know, like dumb whores. Like you know, chicks that are hot, but just, you know know they and they don't want to do anything beyond that They always seem to like pink. Oh
Starting point is 00:03:49 My god you guys Hi Megan, right I Never saw moms dressing or walking around in hot pink. They were moms, right? It's a lot of earth tones when I was a kid Got a little crazier in the 80s Got a little medicated in the 90s. You know, I don't remember moms walking around wearing hot pink So what was Major League Baseball saying that all of our mothers are who is who don't want to work who are looking for a fat wallet and a big car who don't want to work, who are looking for a fat wallet and a big car, because that's what they were doing when I was a kid. Sorry, my brain's all over the place. I just woke
Starting point is 00:04:29 up. All right. Anyway, I hope you guys all had a good Mother's Day. I hope you had time to take your mom out in her hot pink outfit. What do they wear for guys? What would they wear for Father's Day? Shit brown. Hey, don't look now, but the Red Sox has to have the best starting pitcher, pitcher in at least the American League. We're also number one in getting caught stealing errors
Starting point is 00:05:09 and all of that. And our bullpen hasn't been the greatest either. But you know what? We were up to like, we're a strong third place, I think. Got the devil race. I'm just avoiding talking about the Bruins right now. If I see one more guy that's just out there trying to hurt people and they just go, you know, he plays on the edge. I mean, that's his game, you know, he plays on the edge.
Starting point is 00:05:35 Oh, you mean he punches people in the face when they're down on the ice? That guy, you know, you mean, he gives blindside fucking checks with the top of his fucking stick where the ref can't see though He plays on the edge Plays on the edge So anyway, the only positive I can take away from panthers series is I feel like If we really are gonna get revenge, it's only fair that we come back from down three games to one like they did. But I just, you know, this was a hangover year without Bergeron and Craigie, five million
Starting point is 00:06:15 against the cap. So next year, you know, we'll get like another player or whatever. It's just hard to lose to a hockey team from Florida, as much as I respect them, because I kind of love the Panthers. They're like, they're like determined. They just, they're built for the playoffs. They just don't quit. No matter how many goals they're down, they just keep playing. And next thing you know, they're back into it. If you have players better than theirs, they're going to try to injure them. I mean that's what the NHL playoffs has been my entire life. So you know I can't get mad at that and that
Starting point is 00:06:53 but what bugs me is that they're from Florida so I know it doesn't matter if they win or they lose like I've never met a hardcore Florida Panthers fan. I don't think I've ever met a the only thing hardcore is sports-wise I've never met a hardcore Florida Panthers fan. I Don't think I've ever met up. The only thing hardcore is sports wise I've ever met in Miami is the University of Miami But that's when you're getting into like, you know boosters and fucking blue blazers and cash and gold transams and fucking cocaine and women who dress in pink. Whores, right? That has been my experience.
Starting point is 00:07:40 Pink is not a female color, It's the color of the who. Anyway, kind of a black with a guy was always like you were a bad guy and a good guy you had the white hat. You know what I mean? And then people were like, well, there's racist connotations to that or whatever, blah, blah, blah. I mean, maybe there was, or maybe it's just that some people are still as scared of the dark. I don't like when the lights are out because then my mind starts talking to me. Yeah we're down three games to fucking one and I don't know. I mean I'm starting to think like that first game we beat them five to one was because they had such a long fucking layoff and they were all tired of some shit. At least that's what my buddy was telling me. That was
Starting point is 00:08:26 his theory. So we will see, we'll see what happens but I like this group of guys that we have but there's still, we need a presence out there that can answer when people come in and hurt our finesse players and that has not happened. We haven't had that, that happened to us in 2019. And we got Lou Cheech batch but unfortunately whatever happened, happened, definitely missing him right now. Anyway, we will see what happens. This is going to be interesting, you know, if this series goes the way it looks like it's going, or we're going to get bounced out in five fucking games. At least we didn't
Starting point is 00:09:17 lose to the Maple Leafs, because the Maple Leafs would have talked way more shit. I mean, Florida fans, they don't give a fuck. You know, this, there's nothing but gorgeous people or people getting surgery to become gorgeous in Miami. Miami people just go, you see that gorgeous woman over there? That's what I want to look like. And then go, all right. And then, then, then there they are. Then that gorgeous person doesn't realize that they have a fucking doppelganger walking around jumping on all the dicks that she was supposed to jump on you got creepy older guys dressed all in white linen you know they don't give up they can get
Starting point is 00:10:02 over a game quick other than University Miami I feel like that's more like, they give a fuck about that. But like, very quietly Miami is not relevant at all. Certainly with hockey. Baseball, they bought a couple though. They did do that. They came right in. They were like, is this how the Yankees and Red Sox are doing it? We got it. So that was cool to see. In the Miami Heat, they had the pile on team. Dolphins haven't won in 51 years.
Starting point is 00:10:37 However, they have that undefeated season, so they keep getting brought up. It makes them feel current. Yeah, that's the thing about the Dolphins. So they keep getting brought up. It makes them feel current Yeah, that's the thing about the Dolphins They don't get as much shit because they're in the same division as the Jets and the Jets haven't won it since 1969 and Jets have also like really sucked too for a long time So I think that that takes the heat off the Dolphins You know because the Dolphins. You know, because the Dolphins still, you know, were competitive through the end of Bob Greasy's career.
Starting point is 00:11:09 Don Woodley, Dan Woodley and Don Strach, whatever their names were, they got to a Super Bowl. Dan Marino got to a Super Bowl and was also a major problem before the Bills came on. And it's just been nothing for like 30 fucking years and they haven't won shit in 51 years. But every year they get to puff out their chests because now for some reason in order to break their records 17 and oh, the Patriots went 18 and oh, but lost the last game to the Giants. Right. So then it's like nope. You didn't do it It's like kind of feel like we did
Starting point is 00:11:51 No, all right, I guess we didn't do it now You have to you 17 and oh is now the end of the regular season. So like what the fuck are we doing here? And we're gonna keep glorifying this team this team that went undefeated so long ago. They had two white running backs and a field goal kicker that went bald like a science teacher. Alright, we'll give you that. Anyway, Celtics win game three. Thank God. Celtics win game three. Thank God.
Starting point is 00:12:26 Who's that 45 there on Darren Mitchell or something like that? I'm so bad with the fucking names. That kid can play. Although I did find it funny in game two, like that young kid thing where you're down 1-0 in the series and you're hitting three pointers in the third quarter and then you're down 1-0 in the series and you're hitting three-pointers in the third quarter, and then you're turning around and doing that that stare like you're in that movie 300. I feel like you should only be able to stare at a crowd like that, like you're actually, if you just slayed a lion, not metaphorically, like literally, or did some, you know, special forces military shit, you know, like they threw the grenade into
Starting point is 00:13:06 your foxhole, you risked your own life, threw it back and killed some bad guys, then you can turn around and look at the camera and go like that. But I feel like when you drain a three, like everybody on the court has in the first two quarters, to turn around and then do that fucking stare is kind of ridiculous. Maybe that's just me. But what I like about saying old shit like that is people just go, yeah, okay, boomer. I love hearing that because I'm Generation X. And I'm like, oh, good. They blamed it on them.
Starting point is 00:13:35 All the whores are wearing pink tonight. They're looking out of sight, they ain't paying for any goddamn drinks. Why did MLB dress their players up like the gold diggers that try to meet them after every game? Hey MLB, moms don't wear hot pink. Women that fuck your dad and break up mom's marriage, they wear that color. Out there in jello shot colors. Waitress, remember that bag, you want to do a jello shot? They'd always have some smoke show coming up to you.
Starting point is 00:14:22 Who the fuck wants booze and jello? Nobody did. You wanted what was serving it to you but you knew she was out of your league she was wearing hot pink you didn't have the money you didn't have the power you did not have the car so wow what's the closest way to get to her to pay seven dollars for that jello shot? 1995 that's what you did That is what you did. Don't lie to me. You know you did it Maybe if I do a bunch of them she'll start to like me air quote like me Lights come on you're over in the corner
Starting point is 00:15:03 Lights come on you're over in the corner And all hot pink puss walks out gets into a fucking monocarp money SS to tee tops off With some roided up guy wearing a half shirt and a mullet. I mean those what that was the 80s buddy That's what it was You did a cycle you didn't do squats. It was all upper body. You got yourself a half shirt, some Larry Bird short shorts. You went to Tannerama and landscaped during the day. You were the color of an old belt.
Starting point is 00:15:35 And then you had some fucking wraparound glasses, like the Macho Man Randy Savage, the fucking mullet. You didn't just have a mullet. You had the blonde highlights in it. Blonde highlights in it. And then any whore out there that liked to fucking wear hot pink, was that's why you had the teetops off so they could leap into your car, onto your dick as you drove down the street. Right? You were dealing weed, you kept that under the spare tire in the back. That's how you did it, right Right in the little fucking wheel well.
Starting point is 00:16:09 Um... Anyway... That'd be a good movie, right? Set it in the 80s. Where it's just about weed dealers. Competing weed dealers. Because weed dealers, they fucking didn't like each other, but there was no guns involved. You know? It was just a lot of mean mugging out of IROC-Zs and Monty SSs.
Starting point is 00:16:32 You know? And then there was a... I know I've been saying this a lot, but I just want to make sure you guys don't forget. There was a bunch of Whoas trying to compete for their attention, for their attention, and how they got their attention by wearing the color that MLB dressed the sons of respectable women in yesterday. You know, do you think it's time MLB took a pause and decided not to dress the sons of respectable women like Hooters waitresses on Mother's Day? On Mother's Day, people. I mean, what is going on with this country? I don't know about you guys, but I'm walking away from that I'm letting my silence and the 17 minutes I discussed this on the podcast speak for itself
Starting point is 00:17:31 Okay Anyway, I'm in a goofy mood today new boot goofing What was I gonna say, you know, you know what else I watched this weekend? I watched the, I watched that Wells Fargo Invitational Golf thing. This is when you know you're getting old. And I told a buddy of mine the other day, I was like, you know what, one of the things that I'm most proud of myself is I am a 55, soon-to to be 56 year old white guy, and I have yet to buy a set of clubs. I don't own a set of golf clubs.
Starting point is 00:18:14 I've never owned, I never, you know, but I got to tell you, the game, you know, as I'm slowing down, you know, as I'm starting to look at things as being way slowing down, you know? As I'm starting to look at things as being way over there when it's just in my bedroom. Can you get that for me, honey? But it's way over there. I watched, I turned it on, say, you know, cause the Bruins and the Celtics weren't on at that time. And I was watching, I put it on, and what's his face?
Starting point is 00:18:52 Rory McElway, right? Is that his name? McElhaney? McElhaney? Oh no, it's the old Sonny guy. Hang on a second. I gotta open my phone so I can look. Oh, you fucking whore.
Starting point is 00:19:05 No, no. There we go. This, this, this. Hey, I remembered my password. But you know, sometimes just got to like push through the adversity. All right. Yeah, Rory McElroy, MC, capital L R O Y McElroy, M-C-capital-L-R-O-Y, McElroy, and then Xander Shoffley. And Xander had him buy a shot or two, and every time Rory would tie it up, Xander would go ahead. And then I put it on on Sunday and
Starting point is 00:19:51 fucking Rory on the back nine went like Jack Nicholas at the Masters in 1985 or 86. Kid had like two Eagles and three birdies. The next thing you know, he was up by seven shots. Shofley was minus 12 after four rounds and he was seven shots back. It's just like, what the fuck do I got to do here? McElroy ended up double bogeying because he went into the water on 18. And so he finished 17 and under. So as he's doing this, they show a graphic saying the last time he won a major was in 2014. It's just like, dude, you know what the fuck? They show a graphic saying the last time you won a major was in 2014 It's just like dude, you know, what the fuck
Starting point is 00:20:33 He's winning a tournament, but it's not a major. I don't understand. Why are majors? Worth more than these other ones. I've never understood that I Guess it's like their playoffs There's more pressure or something it's fucking golf It's the same goddamn game, you know It's the same fucking people Every week. It's the same fucking people you're playing about this one means more. It's a major You know what's cool about That Wells Fargo course they had like
Starting point is 00:21:08 1617 and 18 are called the green mile because I guess they're really long holes I think it's two par fives and then 190 yard par three or something or maybe there's a long par four I don't know what but All I do know is these guys hit it so fucking hard even so far even on a fucking long Par 5 It's like they did that their second shot is like an 8 iron And then they're on the green and they're putting for Eagles at least that's what I was watching yesterday
Starting point is 00:21:44 I And they're putting for Eagles at least that's what I was watching yesterday I Like that guy, I don't know how you say his name's son Jay Him I am I don't know how to say his name but He had a hole that reminded me of me he went fucking into the bunker out of the bunker. He goes over the green Into the fucking water or something stupid like that And then they were saying the golf gods made it up for him because he like hold out when he tried to chip on to The fucking or he chipped out of the trap or something like that Billy was watching golf and I found out that the NASCAR Hall of Fame
Starting point is 00:22:24 Just to think just before you think I'm going upper crust on you by starting to watch watching the golf I I saw the NASCAR Hall of Fame is in Charlotte North Carolina I'm going to North Carolina this week I don't know where I'm at I think it's Winston Salem. That's anywhere near Charlotte the Charlotte the the fucking now what do you call it? The the NASCAR Hall of Fame looks great They have some of the actual cars in there They got Dale earn her it's fucking blue and white Wrangler
Starting point is 00:23:01 They got the King Richard Petty. They got one of his fucking cars in there. I would go in there just to look at that shit Back when those things I mean back when racing was scary like you could legit die As opposed to now where they like airbags and crumples homes, they don't have airbags do they It's kind of funny they don't have airbags, do they? It's kind of funny, they don't have airbags. It'd be too much weight. The horsepower to weight ratio is going to be all thrown off. I feel like NASCAR and wrestling, the same thing happened to both of those things at the same time. Like all their biggest stars left
Starting point is 00:23:50 You know Dale Earnhardt died Jeff Gordon eventually retired and Then since then they just haven't been able to get you know get it going again And I look at the look at wrestling Stone-co cold mankind the rock they haven't been able to get back to that I know we had John Cena there for a minute I mean they had everybody why why 2j Triple H that was a hell of a run it was a hell of a run and I hated to admit it but I thought that that was even
Starting point is 00:24:25 better than what I saw coming up in the 80s. And they had Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair, Jimmy Superfly, Snooker, Larry Zabisco, Tony Guerrilla, Mr. Fuji, Mr. Saeedo, the Moon Dogs, Ivan Putsky, Ted DiBiase, the Intercontinental Champion, the Million Dollar Man, Mr. Wonderful, Roddy Rowdy Piper, Tito Santana, Jesse the Body Ventura, Rick Flair, the Vaughn Eriks, Bob Backlund, Bruno Sammartino, Andre the Giant. Sorry. That was a lot to go up against. Tony Atlas, special delivery Jones, SD Jones. Oh, who are the guys who lost every week the tag team change the tag team. Johnny rods and Jose Estrada.
Starting point is 00:25:35 That's fucking unreal and I'll meet somebody to party and I can't remember their name five seconds later. Maybe they had some tights on and pretended to fight every week maybe that it could. Maybe they had some tights on and pretended to fight every week. Maybe that it could... Maybe that I could remember their fucking name. All right. All righty then. This has been a weird podcast. I've been enjoying it though.

Alright where am I going here? The song is over, it's all behind me. I gotta take a break before I get into this first one. This first guy is gonna take me to task on my whole I don't buy this whole thing that you stole home court advantage. When they say that dumb shit like best of seven series,
Starting point is 00:29:09 there's four games in my court, three games in your court. You split the first two in my building and then somehow you just stole home court advantage. There's no longer four games in my building and three games in your building. You somehow stole that mathematically by winning one of the first two games. I gotta listen to this fucking guy. Alright, stealing home court. What is going on? Hang on. Let me clear my throat. Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do- This guy's gonna set me straight. Stealing home court slash field advantage. Billy Baldfuck, long time listener, first time writing in.
Starting point is 00:30:07 I notice you often say, most recently on your last Thursday podcast, that when sports commentators say a team stole home court field advantage in a series, that they're wrong and that they don't make sense. Yeah, they don't. They're just adding drama. You're completely wrong. Oh, am I? In a best of seven, here they go, now they're gonna do the math. They're just adding drama You're completely wrong. Oh Am I in a best of seven here they go now they're gonna do the math in a bit to seven series
Starting point is 00:30:35 If the way if the away team splits the first two on the road They now have home court slash field advantage the series is now tied 1-1 in case you missed it and and in and is in essence a best of five series now? Oh is it? Is that what just happened? We're not playing seven games total? We've decided to not count the first two games and now we're going to act like it's a five game series? You can do that through the whole series. That's just a stupid way of them trying to make something that is like not as dramatic more dramatic like they just now they have home court advantage first of all you're making the assumption that with home court you automatically win the game which you
Starting point is 00:31:22 don't you just split You went 50-50. That's what usually happens in most playoff series. And then what? I go to your building and then suddenly your home court is stronger than my home court, that I'm not gonna go in there, and I'm not gonna take one, and then what happened then?
Starting point is 00:31:41 Then did I steal home court back? Did I steal it back because it belonged to me? It isn't It isn't this is just it's complete horseshit. It's a seven game series. It's never a five game series It's always a seven game series It's always best four out of seven and there's always going to be four in my building and three in your building. So you can't do it. However, if you choose to ignore the first two games that already happened, and it's
Starting point is 00:32:11 a five game series, like these fucking idiots on ESPN do, then yes, then that would be...but then you didn't steal anything. You just decided to ignore the first two games even though they count and now go...so now it's like a five game series. Is it like, is this seven game series like a five game series? This is no different than people that say that bad things happen in threes. Rather than no, you stop counting at three and then when the fourth bad thing happens you call it number one. That's all you're doing. You're just moving numbers around
Starting point is 00:32:46 It's a best of seven game series I have home court advantage or you do because four are in your building and three are in mine Unless you decide to start counting after the first two games Let me tell you if I win the first two fucking games, if you're going to ignore those, it's still like a five game series. None of what you're saying makes any sense. It's stupid. And just because you're at home doesn't mean you're going to win the fucking game. I don't think there really is any any like home court advantage. The game is just in your building and if you're a team that's
Starting point is 00:33:30 built for the playoffs it doesn't matter where you're playing. What actually matters is not in the fucking stands as much as fans can't believe that they're not a bigger part of the game. You're watching of an event and you're reacting to it but those people on the court, on the ice, on the game, you're watching an event and you're reacting to it. But those people on the court, on the ice, on the field, on the tundra, they're playing it. And there's all kinds of storylines in there that you can't even see with your fucking Joe Six Pack eyes that they're dealing with. So you guys can sit here and play fucking, you know, Hollywood math with the seven game series and not count the first. Now, now with the five game, well after game three, then what is it like? Is it like a
Starting point is 00:34:15 three game series? And at that point does nobody have home court advantage? Well, no. The team that's up 2-1, they're the one that would have a... Well, I thought you stopped counting the first two games. Now we're counting those again so your math works? You're completely wrong. No, what you are, sir, is you're one of those people that you hear something on a sports program and then you repeat it. I remember when the Red Sox, those goddamn Boston Red Sox
Starting point is 00:34:47 who they had dressed like absolute hoes on Mother's Day. I remember after they beat the Yankees in 0-4 and they were up three games to none against the St. Louis Cardinals, all right, they started saying if the Red Sox win the World Series, these Red Sox fans, they're not going to know what to do. They're not going to know what to do if the Red Sox win a World Series. They kept saying that and sure enough when the Red Sox won it they started filming Red Sox fans and what did they say they would start going I mean I don't even know what to do like that was his idea it was put in his head and then he act accordingly I'll tell you another lazy one I'll tell you another lazy one
Starting point is 00:35:43 before I don't respect for this guy, I'm going to keep fucking reading his stupid fucking math. All right? Anyways, it's like you have $7. Yeah, but if you ignore the first two, it's like you only have five. Oh, okay. Yeah, that makes sense. You have $5 advantage. Another one, I was watching this 30 for 30 on Mark Maguire, Sammy Sosa, and a lot of people forgot, including myself, that Ken Griffey Jr. was in that home run race to beat Roger Maris in 1998. And you know, one of the biggest travesties in all of baseball in that everybody fucking enjoyed it. Everybody had a good time. And everybody in baseball, including the owners, knew what was happening. And then a couple years later when the shit
Starting point is 00:36:38 hit the fan, all the owners walked away from those players like they didn't know what the fuck was going on. Like they didn't deliberately look the other way because in 1994 they cancelled the World Series Attendance was brutally down and Cal Ripken jr. Breaking Lou Gehrig's record was the only good thing that happened In almost five years it was like they basically said at the beginning of that year that Mark McGuire or somebody was gonna break it and then it happened. You know there was a lot going on there. There was there was a lot of marketing going on there but those guys went out there and they fucking did it but anyway that's not what I want to talk about. And then the president's calling Mark McGuire and Sammy Sosa and Barry Bonds is sitting there going like wait a minute
Starting point is 00:37:25 I thought I was the best guy. All right. Here's me on steroids and then everybody's like Fuck this guy Barry Bonds was a victim of the steroid error Anyway Plowing ahead What they said in that is they were talking about the St. Louis Cardinals and Chicago Cubs rivalry. And they use that thing that they always say about Boston and Philadelphia. They said St.
Starting point is 00:38:00 Louis had an inferiority complex with Chicago. Like people in St. Louis were going like, you know, I really love St. Louis, but it doesn't have as many buildings as Chicago. How they keep fucking doing that. When they were doing it about New York, I understood it because so much of news media is driven and is based in New York.
Starting point is 00:38:32 That's why if you do something in New York, they won't shut the fuck up about it. But if you do something in San Antonio, nobody pays attention to it. Like if the Spurs were the Knicks, I mean, you would never, I mean, I see more shit about the stupid fucking Pat Riley, New York Knicks and Spike Lee and all men, the garden was going crazy. You didn't win anything. And those fucking Reggie Miller games. It's just like, I, it's that, that New York media thing. It's hey let's all sit around and romanticize not winning a championship but we almost did we almost did but it happened in New York so they do that thing where they would always say you know but Boston it's always been an inferiority complex and I gotta be honest with you guys how far away New
Starting point is 00:39:22 York might as have been well has been in fucking Europe like when we were growing up They said it when we were growing up and it was like There was no internet Knowing I knew about New York. I knew their sports teams the Statue of Liberty and the Empire State Building. That was it That's all it was I didn't know anything about anything else So That's all it was. I didn't know anything about anything else. So anyway, like that, that thing, I feel like that is, um, that is people that left their towns and moved to bigger cities and they always then have to talk down like where they came from.
Starting point is 00:40:02 It's kind of like how everybody in Hollywood calls like you know basically 48 of the 50 states well it's really the lower 48 so I'd say 46 of the 48 states flyover states. You know like they see they view them as a cut below and then they're the ones who write these documentaries and make these fucking These outrageous claims that like why would st. Louis have an inferiority complex to Chicago? Chicago was called second city All right St. Louis was the one winning all the titles the Cubs were in the middle of like a fucking hundred year drought. It didn't even make sense.
Starting point is 00:40:48 They just said, OK, when when we did Red Sox, Yankees, Doc, inferiority complex, plug this in. Nobody gives a fuck. Nobody in New York gives a fuck about Boston. Nobody in Boston gives a fuck about New York. Nobody's thinking about Philly. Nobody is. But these sports writers, they go from each town and they see them and then they start, you know,
Starting point is 00:41:09 coming up with some metaphors and a fucking storyline. And then they start putting words into our mouths. Nobody, nobody gives a fuck. Nobody cares. We like our pizza, you like your pizza, you're into your tacos. Nobody gives a fuck. Nobody is literally walking around going,
Starting point is 00:41:23 you know, I love this city, but I feel so inferior when I look at San Francisco Nobody does everybody Loves where they're from Essentially, right I Mean look at the Diaz brothers the way they fucking talk about Stockton, California All right now if one of these ESPN documentary people they ah you know they they have inferiority complex to Sacramento. Anyway I got to read the rest of this. If the away team splits the first two on the road they now have
Starting point is 00:42:00 home court advantage. The series is tied 1 one one and is in essence a best of five series now oh is it with three games at home and two away as a result they have stolen home court field or slash field advantage I know you're not the brightest ginger in the box so I hope this concept is something you can wrap your bald head around you like this guy this guy feels smart because what they spoon-fed him on ESPN Yeah, that makes sense to me. You just wanted to be that guy at work going they stole home court advantage I'm talking the lingo You didn't
Starting point is 00:42:41 You didn't okay, that's that's not It's not what's going on here. Game one and game two still happened. And all the bumps and bruises and all this shit still fucking happened. You don't just get to act like they're not there, hit the refresh button, and act like they didn't fucking happen, and now we're going out there. So whoever got hurt in the first two games isn't hurt anymore. That's not gonna play a factor. It's all about some fat fuck with two fucking styrofoam tubes slamming them together behind the fucking back, backboard. That's what it's about. You probably, you're probably one of the guys that stands up and dances and tries to get on the fucking Jumbotron. All right, PS I love unfrosted and seeing you play
Starting point is 00:43:23 JFK. Thanks for all the laughs you've provided over the years. Best to you and your family and go fuck yourself. All right, you won me back because you fucking fed my ego. They've stolen home courted. Oh, is that what they did? Game seven. Well now, you know, actually in essence, It's a one game series. Oh, thank you But just for the record whoever wins tonight
Starting point is 00:43:55 Will have won four games and needed to win four Because it was a I remember a few games ago. This was best four out of seven right I think so So you get out your eraser? And yeah, not to mention like the team winning at home is not a foregone conclusion You just saw that cuz they just split so what what what the fuck are we doing here? your favorite strip club in LA Jumbo's clown room I fucking hate that place
Starting point is 00:44:31 Hate that place cuz the amount of people that want to do we ended up in Jumbo's clown room. It was a crazy night fucking up top Dear Hollywood Bowl bill on your podcast a year ago,, you mentioned Jumbo's Clown Room, a somewhat infamous strip club in LA. Yeah, it's not a good place. You mentioned how you went there and saw a stripper quit in the middle of the job. Yes, by the way, it was not my idea. My wife, my wife, goes, let's go there.
Starting point is 00:44:58 I want to go there, see what's up. And it was fucking, it was fucking sad. It was sad. It was the same sadness. I hadn't been in there since the nineties. It was sad then. I went there. What the fuck was it? I remember I had an acting gig. In the whole cast, we went there and I remember we ended up leaving and one of the actresses was like, feel like I'm gonna throw up. That was my, I think my two experiences there. I'm in my 20s and grew up in Hollywood and although I've been to a couple of strip clubs I've never been to Jumbo so my first impression was always your description which was something along the lines of a place that looks like every serial killer has hung out there. Yes.
Starting point is 00:45:47 Well, I thought you would appreciate that completely out of the blue. Two separate friend groups of mine started going to Jumbo's clown room frequently. The two friend groups never met, but they were both... They both started to frequent the place. What I think is funny, besides the whole thing being bizarre, is that they go there for different reasons. One of the friend groups is typical LA artsy crowd that thinks the place is cool artsy hangout. I shit you not. Yep. I can see that. The other group is a bunch of frat guys from BU who go there to get drunk because they think it's funny. Yep, that's it. Every time Jumbos gets brought up often all I can think of is your podcast.
Starting point is 00:46:32 By the way, the BU guys love your description of the place after I mention it. I'll probably be dragged there in the near future and I'll let you know how it goes. Just thought you would like to know that your legacy as a spokesman for Jumbo's clown room is alive and well also my dad and I loved you at the Hollywood Bowl wishing you and your family the best and go fuck yourself and for you to go fuck yourself yeah I feel like strip clubs if you go to them in your 20s you know it becomes a different things in your 30s. You just you're just a creep It's not funny anymore. I Guess it never should be I don't know who the fuck knows but that one just in particular
Starting point is 00:47:16 I've been to that one and then there was there was one This place called cloud nine Which is essentially somebody's house. I remember that one. I went to that one. I'm not going to name the comedians I went there with. That was another level. Past Jumbo's Clown Room.
Starting point is 00:47:36 All right. The other side of bail reform. Hey there, Billy, both sides. I just heard your read from last Monday regarding the elimination of cash bail. There's the other side of the coin to consider from an attorney that has worked in the criminal justice system for the last 17 years. No, you should be taking the word of a comedian who never went to fucking law school. First, the elimination of cash bail does not mean that everyone charged with
Starting point is 00:48:05 the crime gets set free after their arrest. All right, that's what I thought it meant. If they are not released within a few hours for a minor offense, something that was common even when we had a money bail system. Okay, let me read that better. If they are not released within a few hours for a minor offense, parentheses something that was common even when we had a money bail system. They are typically held in jail for several days while they await a detention hearing. A detention hearing, a judge decides
Starting point is 00:48:36 whether they should be released and if so, under what conditions? I.e. weekly reporting to court staff, maintaining employment, no contact with the alleged victim, et cetera. Or if they are considered too dangerous for any conditions to keep the public safe, they are held in jail without bail until trial, a dispositive motion, or their case is resolved with the plea agreement.
Starting point is 00:49:05 Please consider that much of the rhetoric against bail reform as fueled by the billion dollar prison industry whose pocket gets lighter when less people are held in jail. Yeah, because that's what I was wondering about going like, yeah, why aren't they saying anything? Because I remember there was a guy guy they did this really creepy thing where He built a jail and he was like pissed because he didn't have enough prisoners. He goes I was promised prisoners It's like everybody. Well, what are we doing here? That was basically how he made money anyway There are two major improvements to eliminate to the elimination of cash bail that are beyond dispute.
Starting point is 00:49:45 One is that poor petty offenders are no longer held in jail at taxpayers' expenses because they can't post $500 bail for things like simple drug possession or disorderly drunken conduct. Well, I thought they were letting people out that did shit way more violent than that. Am I nuts? Related to this point is the backwards dynamic involving bail bondsmen. people out that did shit way more violent than that. Am I nuts? Related to this point is the backwards dynamic involving bail bondsmen. A bail bondsman makes money by charging an inmate 10% of the total bail figure to secure their release. It is then the bondsman's job to track down an inmate and bring them back to jail if they
Starting point is 00:50:20 flee before their case resolves. Bondsmen were always motivated to do business with inmates with the highest bail figures, i.e. inmates facing the most serious charges. With a $500,000 bail, the bondsman can make $50,000, which justifies the risk and trouble of having to track down serious violent offenders who flee. At the same time, no bondsman would do business with someone who had a bail, $500 bail on a petty offense because $50 is not worth the trouble if they have to chase them, chase after them, sorry. Thus, under a cash bail system, our jails were often filled with the pettiest offenders,
Starting point is 00:51:04 while the most violent offenders who could find a way to come up with the bail money would be released pre-trial. Look at this, the other side of the argument. The second related upside to the elimination of cash bail is that wealthiest criminals charged with the most serious offenses like murder and rape can now be held without bail i.e. even if they have a billion dollars in cash to post they are still held in jail
Starting point is 00:51:31 until their case is resolved as opposed to being released. Before the elimination of money bail, holding people with the inability to post bail was considered unconstitutional due to the presumption of innocence until proven guilty. New Jersey amended its state constitution as part of the give and take involved with the elimination of the money bail system. All right, well there you go people. There's some information for you. And as always, I probably had it 180 degrees wrong. I'm trying to copy this so I can send this to a buddy of mine who's going like, these fucking liberals, these fucking liberals are fucking liberal and with their liberalism.
Starting point is 00:52:16 We're doing that again this election. We're still blaming ties. All right. Let's keep it going. CNN, Fox News, MSNBC, just keep watching that shit. That's where the truth is. Oh, Jesus. All right. Corporate jargon, corporate chararity. Hey, Billy, coffee snobber, I am. How the hell are you? All of this corporate word talk over the past few weeks got me thinking about something so many companies seem to do these days. Oh, take a department of eight people, fire four of them, and make those four people do eight people's jobs.
Starting point is 00:52:58 And then the person that fired them takes the four fired people's yearly salaries as a bonus during Christmas and now we got a bunch of people living under bridges that that that type of shit nah that's the liberal conservative right-wing libtards that are doing it no it isn't it's just corporate greed that is not monitored by any sort of governmental agency anymore. There's no rules. You know, the Department of Justice is going after Live Nation. I work for them. This is the third time they've gone after them to try to break up what is clearly a fucking monopoly. Nothing's going to happen to them. You watch. No, it's totally fine that the person that books the show also owns the ticketing agency and also owns the venue and also gets money off of the fucking advertising and they fucking quadruple dip every gig. That's totally fine. And whatever deal that they want to give you, that's the deal you have to fucking take as they own all the fucking venues and where else you gonna go
Starting point is 00:54:06 there's nothing to see there you know and then you know a couple years they they report a loss and don't even pay taxes i mean that's nothing to see there alright how the hell are you? All this corporate work talk, blah, blah, blah, blah. The past few got me thinking about something. Got me thinking about something so many companies seem to do these days, which is posting on
Starting point is 00:54:39 LinkedIn social media every time they do something charity related. Yeah, that's to appease their guilt What this looks like is this three simple steps one schedule a day for people at your company to wear the same shirts This is except essential and do something charity related parentheses food drive toy drive fundraising event etc to Go to said food drive slash toy drive slash event and take a million pictures bonus if kids are in the pictures. 3. Shamelessly post about it on the company's LinkedIn page followed by every employee posting
Starting point is 00:55:16 the picture and how they spent a day doing something for charity. Without fail the posts have a sense of or just outright say, oh look at how much we care about other people. Pretty damn funny. Take care and appreciate all that you do. Yeah well there you go 100%. Yeah it's all it's all fucking politics. I mean look at me. Look at me. I try to act like I'm down to earth right? I try to act like I'm down to earth, right? I try to act like I'm a man of the people. You guys have no idea what I'm doing.
Starting point is 00:55:50 Do you guys realize right now that I have on gold toed slippers? Did you even know that they even made those? Now, the gold toed sock, I don't want to get into that. I've made fun of the gold toed sock before. All right. I don't want to get into that I've made fun of the gold-toed sock before all right I'm gonna wrap this up here a few minutes early Because I'm meeting a buddy of mine to go play a par-3 golf course This is my deal as long as I don't buy clubs. I don't have a problem. I don't have a problem guys
Starting point is 00:56:24 I can quit it whenever I want, just like cigars. I did quit the booze. I did quit the booze. And I've been going easy on the cigars this year, but I mean, what am I supposed to do? Anyway, oh, drum shit real quick. Oh, drum shit real quick. See Primus in Pussifer in Tool Play One song and all that. I revisited this, I saw him at the Hollywood Bowl a few weeks ago, man, for Maynard's 60th, it's fucking amazing.
Starting point is 00:56:57 So I got back into, you know, a couple of Primus songs that I never quite figured out. And one of them was that song, My Friend Fats. My friend Fats is a hell of a guy. Let me tell you why. And it's just, the riff is just da da da dun. Da da da dun.
Starting point is 00:57:22 I can't even do it on time. And the way Tim plays it on drums is he gives it like a triplet feel. It almost feels like it's in six. The accents, because the accents on the one, on the end of two, and I think on four. And so then you think it's like in this odd time because after that it goes da da da dun and you're like what the fuck was that this is like in five is this in seven is it in nine and it's actually in four he's just playing like a three against four but rather than playing every third accenting every
Starting point is 00:58:00 third he's accenting every sixth so now it feels like it's in sixths. So you're playing sixteenths on the hi-hat. This is what I think is happening. He accents on the one, the and of two, four, and then he plays E and O one with his bass drum. And that's how I wrote it out. And I'm gonna go fuck with that in my little drum room there. Where I go and I try to act like I'm special.
Starting point is 00:58:30 And I'm throwing that out there because I know I probably got it wrong. And that'll make one of you guys go tell me how to actually fucking play it. But that's what I'm up to. Alright that is the deal. I'm going to Columbus, Nashville and I believe Winston-Salem, North Carolina this weekend. My act is in top form. I am ready to shoot a special. I'm shooting the special in Seattle the end of June at the Moore Theatre. I cannot fucking wait. I love that place. I love that city. I think it's gonna be the perfect combination of Larry liberals and some conservatives driving in from outside of the city. So it'll be the perfect crowd. A little bit
Starting point is 00:59:20 of this, a little bit of that. What do you say there Red? All right, that's it. Go Bruins. All right? You know, I All right, that's it. Go Bruins! All right? You know, I mean when you think about it, I know we've played four games, but you know, in essence, now it's a three game series. So, you know, and you gotta win best three out of three. Wait, who has home ice now? I don't fuck, I can't even do the math. If we win the next one, then do we have to? Is home ice tied? Alright, that's it. I'll talk to you later.
