Ikea, tip of the week.
Do you like to get a gift?
You can count on us.
Because until April 15, Ikea family members
get a children's menu free
at the purchase of a warm meal for adults.
Ikea.
I can't wait for the winner.
I like the winner.
I enjoy it.
I'm a pasty fuck.
The summer offers nothing for me.
Either I'm outside
with that look on my face,
that little emoy joy,
whatever the fuck you call it,
with that look on his face,
that face.
What is it called?
The emoji.
That's the look I have on my fucking face
when I walk around
between May and August.
And, you know,
I'm telling you right now,
all those theories about what's going to kill off
redheads, recessive genes,
it's going to be global warming.
That's what it's going to be.
Because I got to tell you, if these summers get any harder,
right?
I'm in New York City right now.
I got a benefit tonight and tomorrow
out in Brooklyn.
And,
you know, it's a benefit, that type of shit.
I'm going to be doing that out there.
I don't know what it is.
All right, I fucking just woke up
and I got to knock this thing out because I got shit to do today.
And,
I got to tell you, I haven't been here in New York in a while
and it's been,
it's definitely been cool to be back here.
But I got to tell you, this city just beats
the shit out of you.
I was returning this rental car this morning.
You know, literally,
it was like fucking nine streets up
and two blocks over.
That took me a good 40 minutes
trying to find a gas station, right?
I said to the lady in my phone, you know,
where's the gas station? She's like,
there's a gas station right down the street.
Right?
So, I follow her.
I go all the way down there and there's a fucking, you know,
I don't know, I don't know what they're doing.
They're scrubbing out the gas tanks.
So, that thing screwed.
So, then I asked the lady again.
She's like, there's over 15 right near you.
So, I start.
I drive to that one.
That one takes me like another 15 minutes to get to.
I get to that one. It's got a fence around it.
And, oh, it was red face
going through the roof of this rental car.
I did not handle it like an adult whatsoever.
I just, God, suck it, mother fuck it.
Acting like a big baby.
Big stoop.
Like, if they had like adult-sized pacifiers,
somebody should have just shoved one right in my mouth,
slapped me on my fucking hand
and said, hey, cool it.
You know, like my dad used to.
Right? No pacifier.
He always said, cool it.
Or he snapped really loud.
Just like that. We all just stopped
worrying that he's going to kick the shit out of us.
And he never did. Never laid a hand on us.
But how loud his snap was,
you could only imagine his fucking fist.
So, you shut up.
You shut the fuck up.
Because back in the day, when you could discipline kids,
right, you could beat the shit out of them
right in public and people would walk by.
That would be it.
So, your father's threats were actually something serious.
I'll tell you, this whole generation of kids,
they're wide open for a fucking ass-kicking
the way they walk down the street with their faces
in the phone.
You could uppercut them right through their phone,
right into their face. It would be lovely.
And I think it would do this generation.
They could do them a bit of good.
Because I'm a crabby old guy
and I like the way things used to be.
Anyways,
so I'm walking down the street
out here in New York
and the amount of people of all ages
just muttering to themselves.
How am I going to make my rent?
My fucking roommate moved out.
I don't know what the fuck they're talking about.
Do I got HPV?
I don't know what they're bitching about
and I don't know if they're more crazier
than other cities because
I think what it is in this city
you can't hide in your fucking car.
Out in L.A.
I can fucking be talking to them.
I'm running my goddamn yap
and somebody pulls up next to me
and looks over at me and I can
seamlessly go from my own psycho chatter
with myself to pretending I'm singing with the radio.
Just singing to the radio that isn't on.
That fucking stupid journey song
has been in my head for three days
and I hope it's now in yours
because I'm taking all you fuckers down with me.
And the sun
goes somewhere
with the band.
I've heard this song
like a thousand times
but I don't know the lyrics
because
it fucking sucks.
How many of those bands are there out there?
Where you're like a radio fan
like you know all the lyrics
like say Billy Joel.
I don't own one album
but that bug-eyed psycho.
Nia you're giving me lots of laughs today
cracking up.
Yeah.
Do you know I couldn't stand him
back in the day Nia when he did that
stupid the Uptown Girls song
making it seem like he was this badass
from the wrong side of the tracks.
Remember that?
Like what is she doing with me?
Oh I'm a badass little bug-eyed Jewish kid
playing a piano.
Keep him away from my children.
And I was like why is he acting like
he's this maniac
and then 40 years later
he's getting hammered driving his car
through the front of people's houses
and I was like you know what?
I owe Billy Joel an apology.
I owe an apology not only was 100% wrong
I want to drink with that maniac.
How much fun would he be to drink with?
He could talk about what it was like
to bang a supermodel
and sit down and start playing some tunes.
He's got all those songs in 3-4 time
which are great to sing when you're drunk.
And we all
go down together.
Except for Piano Man, that song.
I never liked that song.
The way people sway back and forth.
And I said man
what are you doing here?
Oh shut up.
It's like if Anthony Bourdain
played the piano.
You know he's always trying to make his fucking
going out to get a hot dog so fucking artsy
and what's going on?
What's going on with society?
It's like just
shove whatever you're talking about in your face
and let me know if it's good.
Alright Antony?
What are you doing there Antony?
So anyways
yeah so I'm here in New York
at the bit. I've wanted to do stand up the last couple
of nights but my wife won't let me.
That is not true.
She says hey you're going to go out
and you're going to buy me some shoes buddy.
We haven't been into one single store
so fuck you.
What are you talking about? No.
I've just been a little bit lazy.
I've been waking up every morning
and I've been walking down the street.
I've been
going over the Brooklyn Bridge every single day.
That's been my workout.
Scaffolding I go
and I conk out at four
and then I fucking drop to the fucking ground
and I turn around there's some cab driver laughing at me
with his yellow stained
white button down shirt that he's probably been wearing
for the last 15 hours of his shift
looking at me
like gee I would love to do some pull ups
on scaffolding other than
instead of climbing up there and actually working on it.
We're talking about
white privilege here today on the podcast everybody.
Where one person sees
slave labor
I see a gym.
I see a free gym. Isn't that terrible?
He is just shaking her head.
I thought you were getting out of here.
I don't like your stylish running shoes.
Why did you buy them
because of the orange shoe laces?
I like what that says about me.
You know what?
I'm not going to.
Yeah you are. You look cute today.
Yeah?
See how I did that?
I insulted the shit out of everybody
and you end with something nice and then there you go.
Please try not to drop things.
Alright what are we going to talk about this
this week?
Alright
let's get it over with.
Shut up.
Let's get this over with.
LeBron James went back to Cleveland.
I'll tell you right now
I don't think I've ever been so fucking disappointed
in a city.
You know
like do you remember when LeBron left you
the first time?
Do you remember how devastated you were?
Do you remember how you cried
and you threw all this LeBron shit out
in your front lawn and you lit it on fire
like some chick that had been cheated on?
Do you remember that shit?
Of course you do. It was only four years ago
and I didn't judge you.
There's no way that you knew
what he was
but now you know
and what did you do?
You let him back in.
You got back into this relationship with him
like Pamela Anderson back in the day
getting back with Tommy Lee
right?
Like he wasn't going to be like
that wasn't going to fucking happen again.
Ah Jesus Christ
fucking Cleveland
do you really think that this guy is going to stick around?
How long do you think
he's going to be there before you realize
that he's in Cleveland again
or are you going to start checking out some of the other hot chicks
around the league?
Maybe Chicago.
What about LA?
Are they done?
Have they hoarded themselves out enough
that their franchise
is just hanging down their ankles
that nobody wants to go out there anymore?
I don't know.
Hey Bill
what are you coming down on Cleveland for?
We haven't won a championship forever.
Fuck you
Cleveland
you bunch of fucking babies
Jesus fucking Christ
who's been giving you shit?
Nobody.
Nobody chanced the fucking year
1948 nobody does
you don't have any curse
you don't have anything
All you had to do
was build art a fucking stadium
but you wouldn't do it
you wouldn't build a football stadium
but you built a fucking
rock and roll hall of fame
so they could hang Britney Spears jumpsuit
next to Mick Jaggers
these are your priorities
and as a sports fan
I'm supposed to feel bad for you
my heart's supposed to warm
when this guy who cheated on you
with the Miami Heat went down there
and he got the fucking professional herpes
right now he's coming back
to give it to you when you're dropping to your fucking knees
taking your fucking burned up
LeBron Jersey
out of your little waste paper basket
whatever the fuck you have next to your desk
I'm fucking with you guys
hey I'm happy for you he came back
I hope you guys win a championship
as long as the Lakers don't win
I'm happy I'm excited
because I don't like how you know I've talked about it before
while they claim one more championship
than they should
who's getting who I know they're passing the Celtics
nobody wants to come play for the Celtics
it's fucking it kills me
you know
part of it isn't our problem
it's the weather
look at the NBA
what is it like
91% african-american
ok so it usually comes down
to where you want to play
so let's say the Celtics
are bidding on the same free agent as the Lakers
right so these are the options
I think I've said this before
you want to come to Boston
where it's cold and the racism
is off the charts
or would you like to play in LA
where it's warm
this celebrity
asked to bang
and the racism
is off the charts
either way
you're not going to like the police force
you know
but the weather's nice
we can't compete with that
I'm just fucking over
I'm just fucking with you Cleveland guys
and by the way I'm sick of every fucking thing
being described as a rant
do you know last week
I was just talking about the DJ scene
in Vegas just talking about it
but the thing now is
if you talk about something
for like more than like two minutes
all of a sudden it's called a rant
like to me
isn't rant like short for ranting and raving
so I should have been like
you guys
I mean that is ranting
you just fucking talking
about something
I've never looked the word up
but ranting and also heckling
those are the two things that drive me nuts
when they say the comedian
heckled the crowd
the comedian cannot heckle the crowd
the crowd is not giving a performance
that can be interrupted
do you understand that
Jesus
anyways
so what else
anyways he's back
LeBron James
is back in Cleveland
you know what's funny
I thought was hilarious was in Miami
they had a picture of the big three
and somebody like spray painted over LeBron's face
it's like oh fuck yourself
you know what I mean
he was never yours
how did you get the guy
I hate when fans do that
it was like when Celtics fans were mad
when Ray Allen went down to the fucking heat
it's like he wasn't ours
he wasn't ours
alright he came in
he came
we got him off the meat market
you can't expect the guy not to do that again
the guy is the supersonic
okay who's closing out
his career with the Celtics in the heat
if he hasn't already retired you can't get mad about that
alright
what the fuck kind of heat fan fucking paints
over LeBron's face
the guy brought you to the finals
four years in a row
and you won two championships
what's the problem
I could see if Dwayne Wade left
why am I talking about this sport
I know nothing about
it's to fucking annoy you guys
how about that
alright the world
United States rejoices as the world cup
ends
Jesus Christ
somebody finally got a real injury
that guy in Brazil
actually broke a vertebrae
that's always terrifying
thank God he's alright
as far as broken vertebraes go
at least there was no nerve damage
as far as I know so that's a good thing
and how about the Krauts man
how about the Germans not fucking around
what they did to Brazil
that was unbelievable
that was a football game
that would have been like
well I have no fucking idea
what about it
it would have been 70, 77, 80
Foa, 13
they'd be like scoring 13 fucking touchdowns
that was the game
you know what kills me is I missed that game
I actually I taped it
I'm on the road right now as I mentioned
I'm going to watch it when I get back
because that is the soccer game
every person in the United States
has wanted to see forever
to have one team score seven goals
and one of them scored seven combined
for a four to three game
for the love of fucking Christ
you know
I'm fucking with you guys
actually I watched the final
I watched it at Paul Versey's house
we had a great time
and he was laughing
he was going dude
soccer is the shit
and we were talking about this stuff
I swear to God
we fucked up so bad
watching that game so people in Europe
and all around the world could enjoy
how fucking ignorant we are
of the goddamn sport
just classic lines
like dude do you understand
like how much the world
cares about this
we even recognized how fucking
stupid we sounded but I got to get
this clip if anybody can find it
at the end of the game
when
Germany won and unfortunately
Argentina lost my condolences
out to them I actually like both countries
you know what I mean and I think they kind of like each other
you know
if you know what I mean
for those of you who read about the fallout after World War II
at the end of the game
when they were going through the crowd
and they were showing the German fans
you know freaking out
is there anything scarier
than a fucking angry German fan
when they showed the Argentinians
whatever the fuck you call them
they cut to this guy
and I swear to God remember that joke
that me and Verzi were doing
we pretended like we were crying
like you know I'm having such a good time
in New York like that
there was a guy in the crowd
he literally looked like that's how he was crying
he was in his 50s
he had one of those hats on
you know from back in the 50s and 60s
when married guys
would join a men's club
they had to get away from their wives
I was kidding who they wanted to get blown
on all-weather carpet
some sort of one floor ranch
building down the street
and they put that little hat on with the tassel on the side
he was wearing one of those and they cut to him
and he was fucking
blubbering
I've never seen it
they were sitting there they cut to him
and I'm not even joking
like what I just did you could sync that audio
right up to what the fuck he's doing
literally like that
I gotta get into this fucking sport
I don't understand
I lived through the 78 Red Sox
I lived through the fucking
85 bears crushing my patriots
the 86 Red Sox Mets
Jesus Christ I don't even fuck all of Canadians
when we can never beat the fucking Canadians
all of those heartbreaking games
the Aaron Boone game
all of that I never at the end of any of those
losses went
I mean what the fuck
Jesus Christ what point are you like I'm taking this
too seriously he had just
he was hopeless this fucking guy
it was like
it was like he just built his own house
by hand
he had escaped some country
and he built a house by hand
and he had to go back and get his family
finally got him and he goes this is the house
that I built for you and then the whole
fucking thing just collapsed
then I can understand
standing there being like
I can understand that
you just watch the fucking sport
where you can't even use your hands
and he was sitting there hands down by his
sides
that poor bastard
that would have been the most uncomfortable
feeling ever to give him to give him another
man a hug like that when they're crying like that
to just feel them collapse
into you
over a soccer game
I know it was the championship
of the world
I get it all right I understand
so anyways
congratulations
to the Germans I mean they
clearly were the best team
and I can say that with confidence
because I watched about you know collectively
maybe about three hours of the World Cup
I don't know
seemed like a good fucking game
all right there you go
that's the end of my riveting
World Cup

back to the podcast here
so
what's going on with me
oh you know what's funny
I've been talking to you guys
for the last year and a half about the water damage
on my house so to get you updated
in case you give a fuck
my house is
91 years old
and what I quickly learned because we were just going to fix
the three little shitshack
rooms do it yourself
hunk of crap that was underneath
my wife's office
you know that's all we were going to fix
but what happens is
is when you have a house as old as mine
and everybody who lived in it before
you didn't do a fucking thing to it
other than just maintain it
when you go into the walls
it's a shit show
alright
and what started off is just
what I was going to do
basically my house
was initially just a ranch
it was just a one floor thing
and then downstairs there was like a porch
and throughout the years they added
they dug into the hill I guess
and they added this ground floor
and it never really made sense
it seemed like an apartment downstairs
and the house upstairs there wasn't any flow
so
anyway so downstairs
and then it was like this
going into the hill off of the main room
downstairs you'd walk up two stairs
open a door
and then you had this walk-in closet to the left
if you kept going straight there was another stair
and then there was another little room
and somebody at some point was developing pictures
back when people
used film and shit
it was really creepy looking you know
that big tub where you fucking
would throw the
undeveloped pictures in
looked like you know
something out of that serial killer show on showtime
Dexter you know
and then you went up one more step
and it was an unfinished area where you could use for storage
so all of that got all wet or whatever
so they
took all of that shit out
and then dug out all the dirt
and made it level with the floor
and I'm adding a real fucking bathroom down there
and then a nice walk-in closet
that's all I wanted to do everybody
that's it I got my hands up you know
like when they call a file and you act like you didn't do it
I didn't touch them I didn't touch them
so they go under the walls
and it is such an absolute
shit show down there
you know
it's turned into an entire
remodel of the downstairs
and
all the way through
I have to get all the plumbing and all the electrical
fixed on my house
because the walls and ceilings
are open down there
you might as well get it done
I have all fucking galvanized pipe
okay
an unknown Buster Keaton probably hauled
the shit in while he was struggling
in Hollywood you know when this house
was initially built
and uh
oh yeah the fucking electrical
Jesus Christ I already had a guy
one time
downstairs working on some electrical
shit and I was upstairs
watching TV or something
and I had the TV off I think I was in the TV room
and I heard this guy downstairs
and like three times when he was down there
trying to figure out
why this switch these two
why the outlet and the light were on the same
switch or something
like three times I heard him downstairs
in the crawl space underneath where I was at
I was just here
what the fuck
so
it is a mess everybody
and what was going to be
this simple little project
is now turned into an
entire
just fucking remodel
but I'm actually
I've accepted it
you know
it's basically going to be like
say you bought an old car and you just did a body
off restoration so on top you have
the old car but underneath you got a
not even a restoration at this point it's going to be brand new
shit so it's like you just went out
you bought state of the art
chassis, suspension and all of that shit
so
I don't know
I gotta redo all the pipes in the electric
and then I eliminate the two major things you don't want
okay water
flooding and a fire
so I can leave town
and not worry about that shit
and
then all I gotta worry about is the
earthquakes, mudslides
and
fires in general out there right
other than that I think I'm all set
so I'm hoping
the whole fucking thing is going to be done by the end
of this
um
so what I'm
really trying to say is Billy Boy's got a lot of road
dates coming up
you motherfucker
you know it's always something
I paid off the fucking thing right that's what I did
that's what I did everything I've made I just throw it
at my fucking house because I know how this business
ends the entertainment
business does not end nicely
okay
it ends with you sitting there with your hat
and your hand going what do you mean
there's nothing out there for me
you know I'm not gonna be
I'm gonna be that guy everybody's that guy but
at the very least wherever I live
is gonna be fucking paid for
so I paid the fucking thing off
thinking I'm sitting pretty
yeah throwing a bathroom
who gives a fuck and now it's just become
I feel like I'm gonna buy the whole house all over again
you know
it's an investment buy a house
and it's a fucking investment
I don't
I'm letting it go I'm letting it go
I'm letting it go it's gonna be beautiful when it's done
you know who's gonna make out on this
whoever I fucking sell it to
because that doesn't add value to your house
nobody gives a shit
oh should you see these copper pipes that are inside
the walls no one gives a fight
gives a fuck about that you know buys the house
the fucking lady
that's what it really comes down to
unless you're a single guy
you're with your gay buddy right
you come walking in
you know when you look out the back yard
you try to see like you know what kind of pool party
you can have or whatever the fuck it is they look for
you know
I don't pretend to understand I don't pretend to speak
for other groups although I do it all the time
I guess women like
they come in oh my god look at this
kitchen
I love how they love kitchens but then if you ask them
to make a fucking sandwich for you they flip out
it's like I thought you liked the kitchen
well I liked it to look at it
bitch get out there and fucking
put something between two slices of bread now
or I swear to god I'm gonna lock you out on the porch
you wouldn't dare
I would I would
and you don't know any UFC shit so I could pick you up
right now and put you out there and there's nothing you could do
yes there is
you could scream rape
you know and that ends all the fun doesn't it
don't you hate when that happens
so
anyways that's what's going on in my fucking world
uh
oh by the way I've been getting a ton of shit
on Twitter because of
me talking about eating right and exercising
I love how people call
salads like rabbit food
or they do that dumb shit
cheese, croutons and salad dressing
you might as well have a
burger at that point
you know
it's like first of all who doesn't know that
and then secondly
it's still not as bad as eating a fucking burger
you asshole
okay I don't give a shit how much salad dressing
you put on lettuce it's not gonna
lead to fucking heart disease
alright like a delicious juicy
goddamn burger will
alright you know you can't fucking
help people
I'm an old fuck people I'm 46 years old
and I am I'm in the best shape I've been in
a long time eating that way I just go with the
balsamic
your fucking negative cunts
some of you some of you enjoy the
clean wah salad recipes
they're great
shovel it down your pie hole
it will fill you up stay away from
the clown food
and the fucking
and the meats for a couple of days
you do that twice a week
twice a fucking week
and just try the other five days
you'll be amazed what happens
be amazed what fucking happens clown food
by the way is desserts
I call it clown food because
when I'm using
you know when I'm eating cookies
and shit desserts look good to me but
when I got that sugar craving out of me
and I'm not even looking at desserts when I glance
over at the dessert
that's literally what it looks like it looks
it looks like that's what clowns would
eat and that's why their face looks like that you know
whatever it makes sense to me
you know
alright here I am
bitch moaning and complaining about all this fucking
shit and
I gotta ask is there anybody
who listens to this podcast that lives in Israel
or lives in Palestine
I gotta ask you
like how do you how do you
fucking deal with
this Hatfield and McCoy
shit that's going on over there
I just look at it it's just at some point
you know
if you have the money
why wouldn't you just fucking leave
well I swear to god
I would just be alright you want it
here take it fuck it
it's yours
here it is
this is the
where the guy went with the sandals
that everybody gives a shit
about
you know
doesn't go on all religions
doesn't god love everybody
so why would he give a
fuck where you lived
if he made all of it
or she made all of it
if we crawled out of the fucking mud
at some point
man Jesus Christ
these fucking stories are heart breaking
they're just shooting missiles
at each other's towns
and I don't
you know I don't know again I'm trying to think
if somebody was just shooting it at LA
would I leave yes
yeah go to Minnesota
it's fucking freezing yeah but there's nobody
shooting a missile at me
I don't
I don't you know
obviously if you can tell by the way I'm speaking about it
I'm ignorant as hell
like Israel they shot at this fucking
police guys house
they killed like 10 members of his family
you know
now what is that gonna do
is that gonna make people
on that other side you know
hate less like oh now we
get it thank you
carry on
you know
I don't
what am I saying here
like look at World War II
was everybody in England supposed to just walk away
but that's their entire country
ah Jesus what am I
suggestion here
suggesting
yeah I gotta be honest I would
fucking leave
I just picture in that guy
the end of the Algeria game
I would just
I just would have enough
fuck it you win
you want it here it is
fuck it take it I'm out
I'm out
that's easy to say and then what
you don't know the language you gotta go somewhere else
that's what I would do
I would fucking build a concrete
bunker
and I would buy like
as many Rosetta stones
as
as I could afford
and I would just try to learn other languages
I just pick a fucking country
and I would go there
and then what do you do
I'm trying to think where I could live
other than the United States
there's a bunch of play I could live Canada
I think I could live in England
where else
I definitely live in France
I definitely just take a while
take a while
to get used to all those skinny
jeans over there you know
I don't know
I think I just answered my question
it's like where you're from where the fuck
you're gonna go you just accept that after a while
Jesus this is depressing
alright let's get to
how far into this podcast are we
how far into this fucking podcast
35 minutes okay I think it's time to
read a couple of
a couple of
letters
for the week here oh by the way
I want to thank everybody who made all those
DJ remixes of my
my attempt at
imitating that music and that's all I was doing
I wasn't saying it wasn't viable or anything
like that if you really go back and listen to what I was saying
I was just saying I'm glad they're making a bunch of money
I hope they save it because
I saw this same sort of bubble
you know
hair metal grunge boy bands
stand up comedy I've seen it over
and over and over again so I hope they save the money
that's what I really was saying it really wasn't a rant
alright
although maybe it was I didn't really go back
and listen to it alright DJs
if you want to listen to all of the
all the DJ remixes from last week
you can go on to twitter we're gonna have them all
up there
at the mmpodcast is the
twitter handle I believe you say
at the mmpodcast
please follow this podcast there
we'll have the links to all whatever the fuck I talk about
the videos and what not
alright
DJs
hey Billy Bassdrum greetings from Finland
I'm a 20 year old musician
and for the past few years
I've been getting into electronic music
before you call me a mouse head I don't give a fuck
if you like that guy I don't hate that guy
or one of his dick sucking
groupies hear me out
I wouldn't know the difference between
his
the mouse head looking guy or the other guy
who looks like one of the
two quarries
about that ear rape
you hear in mainstream clubs
there are a number of DJs or whatever
you want to call them who actually
can play some real instruments
I play guitar drums based in some
piano it is true that
a big part of making music on a computer
is editing but when you record your own
samples and start fucking around with them
it is as time consuming and tedious
as any form of music
you know
you had me right up until then well so is
painting a house does that mean the guy
painting the house is Hendricks
that doesn't make any
sense to me sir
listen I know
that what you're doing is an art
okay I'm not you know
I'm just making I just make funny shit
okay don't don't get all fucking
don't get any sadder than you
are alright don't add any more black
clothing or eyeliner to your fucking
wardrobe see that's one of the stereotypes
we don't do that anyways he says
overrated too much deodorant
no sane person wants you to smell like
nuclear waste underrated
using the
stairs I see
way too many lazy fucks taking
always taking
the most convenient way if you got a pair
of functioning legs fucking use them
you'll thank yourself later anyways
thanks for reading and I'm looking forward to seeing you
in Helsinki again
I'm looking forward to coming over there
that's actually gonna
become a dangerous part of the world for me if people keep
saying that I'm trash and DJs
I'm not
anyways
you know what's funny nobody ever thinks that they're part of the
problem you know
your music is ear rape what I make is this
tedious is learning the oboe
beep boop boop boop boop
boop boop boop
alright thoughts from
Lana hey there Billy Redface
hope this message finds you reading the Monday
morning podcast
reading it on time haha
realtime media can be challenging
this message is from
the ATL
slash hot Lana I hated that I missed your
show with the tabernacle love the
venue have never seen a comedy
show there I have those seen the dead
weather the Ray
rock tours the white stripes
widespread panic the black keys
and many many other great performing artists
I'm glad you have turned
you've been turned on to Allison
Mosshart
yeah she's the lead singer of
uh the
dead weather man I was saying last
week that she's a rockstar and this guy's green
saying yeah she is a true fucking
rockstar amazing great backstory
on how she started working directly with Jack
White after a show
at the tabernacle while the wreck
rank contours however the fuck you say
we're playing with the kills
Jack White saw her
uh
thought she was the shit everyone
knows it
Jack White though is the shit everyone knows it
if you don't then you need to
crawl out of your cave and rejoin society
did I read
that right
I guess she was playing with
the kills and was opening for Jack White's
and he saw her thought she was the shit and that's how they
uh
they got together I think that's what the point was
I apologize for my reading
um anyways he said I want to
take a minute and share a few thoughts with you
I've been listening to your podcast for a little over a year now
a few items I feel compelled to comment on
fat shaming thank you
I've been very focused on my health
over the last year and dropping off the wagon
for about
two years it feels great getting back in shape
your podcast is motivating
and I'm typically listening to it while I'm
working out or while traveling on a plane or in
a car being
stationary
and reminding myself I need to work out
uh if you don't like the fat shaming
then don't listen to the fucking program
it's not like there's not a million other things to
listen to um yeah I think
I do fat shaving with a twinkle in my
eye right
anyways vegetarian
food at Chinese entire restaurant
so yeah I keep bringing that up like if I google
vegetarian restaurant they always show these
Chinese entire restaurants he says the reason this
shows up is these cuisines
are great for vegetarians
uh if you go to a real Chinese restaurant
not some American Chinese
crap the food is way
more focused on the vegetables and is actually
quite healthy ties a little
harder to find healthy but there are generally
are a few great options
at authentic Thai restaurants aka
not mouth breathing mall food
if you don't believe me next time you're in
Atlanta or Raman LA I'll prove it to you
um
um dude
I believe you we don't have to have a lunch date here
um anyways
yeah I just yeah
you know when my version of Chinese food is that
you know that fucking food you eat and 10 minutes
later you're hungry again that really unhealthy
shit so I
I really ought to
look into that a little bit more I guess
but um
anyways oh I you know what I forgot
to do I wanted to apologize to all the world cup
fans because some people getting annoyed with me trashing
you know I just like fucking irritating you guys
you know
it's fun and I think in your heart of hearts
it really bugs you that the United States
doesn't give a fuck
about the world cup and I know right now
you're like oh fuck off
but you know it's true
and I think in your heart of hearts
you actually want to be an American
don't you
come on you never fantasized about that
just
being some fat fuck on your way to a
like a Walmart
listening to some country music
with your fucking jaw hanging open
alright
some ill fitting hat
listening to some country guy
rubbing your balls
if you don't like the south
you can get the fuck
out
cause this is America
and we ain't
changing for nobody
right
and then they start playing a violin
that makes you want to leap out of the truck
come on you know we wouldn't want to do that for like a couple of weeks
Europeans
and Australians stop coming visiting here
and visiting the coastal cities see the real
America get in the middle of it
get in the fucking hot land
go to some of our DE
and F's fucking cities
alright
why don't you go out there and do some of that shit
just fucking drive around
okay
and I challenge you to walk into my maybe four
walmarts in the middle of nowhere
and not break down like that Argentinian guy
alright
was there any point to be made there
I don't think there was
alright other instrument
dear Billy Coltrane
you play drums and that's awesome
you're a bonafide cool kid
what because I suck at drums
alright I'll take that he said but if you could play a second instrument
and be a master of it
what would you play
sorry guitar is not an option
why
why isn't it a fucking option
cause you say so alright I'll roll with it
you gotta choose between a saxophone
trombone flute or violin
what's your choice and what genre of music
would uh
would you want to be the master of
thanks and go flute yourself
jesus
jesus with the puns over there
if I have saxophone trombone
trombone doubt it doubt
trombone is a badass fucking instrument
I see when you mute it with the plunger
I like trumpet trombone
what would I play
I don't know either that New Orleans shit
or like I like the trombone player
and uh
in James Brown's band
Fred
bop bop bop
put the band
whatever that fucking song
doing it to death I can't remember the name of the song
oh did I tell you guys
I found a fucking killer James Brown
killer James Brown like a new version
or not a different take
of uh
of I feel good
you gotta hear this shit hang on a second
let me see if I can uh
bring this up real quick
James Brown right there click on that
this is how much of a fucking genius this guy is
where the hell is that hot pants
mmm here it is
listen to this shit
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
tell me you can listen to that fucking nine thousand times in a row
you gotta listen to that whole song
the bridge is the only thing that sort of sounds like the original version
that just sounds like him fucking around
trying to figure out how he's gonna do it
yeah yeah yeah yeah
yeah I would play trombone
I also really like the trumpet I feel like that's an unbelievably powerful instrument
and my dad had a record when I was a kid
Ted Heath and his orchestra
swing as king
and they had a couple of sections where
where it was just a trumpet solo
or just the horn section would kick in and it was
it you know fucking blew you out of your chair when you were listening to it
if you had a nice hi-fi system back in the day there
and I remember the first time I went and I saw a big band live
I went to Berkeley
I think I told this story before
I went to Berkeley and it was the
the Buddy Rich band
and Buddy was he was gone by then
he'd been gone probably like five six years
so they just would have these all-star drummers come in
and play with the band
and I could not fucking believe
like a big band was basically it was four trombones
four saxophones four trumpets
and
I mean these guys when they would
just
just fucking all of them would play
16 fucking people blowing on horns
you fucking blow your goddamn wig back man
was unbelievable
so I've always loved that kind of music
I don't know
the shit that I'm listening to now
like I got in a rental car a couple weeks ago
and I just decided I was gonna listen to the pop station
so I could kind of know what was going on
just because as a
comedian you got it somehow
it's your job to kind of know what's going on out there
or else your act will really start
feeling dated like I mentioned a couple months ago
when I used Britney Spears as a reference
as like when I was talking about
you know some young flusy
and it bombed
like it got nothing in front of this younger crowd
and then I had to be like wait a minute
she's like a 32-33 divorce mother
of two or three kids at this point
she's not 19 anymore
Bill
you know
fucking 14 years has gone by
since oops I did it again
I played with you
put on some clothes you fucking whore
but God bless you
you made your money
you made your money
I'm a slave fucking
what am I saying so yeah so
that actually has led me into listening
to all kinds of other fucking shit
plus I played drums you know
as the hobby and so I've always
liked
I guess rap music I refuse to call it
hip-hop I'm too white to call it hip-hop
it just doesn't sound right coming off
that rap music that sounds
right coming out of my mouth but like
I like
who's the guy I've been listening to
little Wayne's new one
Rich as fuck
I just really like the drums in that and I also
think he's fucking hilarious
go behind your back like nunchucks
and that's fucked up
I find myself laughing when I'm listening
to his shit he's also amazing
you know fuck talking
let's do it
alright enough with that shit so that's what I meant to
and if I could yeah trombone I would
love that if I had if I could be like
Bill Murray and Groundhog Day I would
master drums guitar trumpet trombone
piano that would probably be
it
and uh
maybe bass
I don't know you know what
there's a guy I actually follow on YouTube
if you're a bass player this fucking guy is the shit
like he plays all the
great fucking
songs that have just unbelievable
bass lines
from funk all the way to like
you know cover shit that you
should know if you're playing a band like that song
uh
that 8 6 7 5 3 0 9
he plays that shit and he's just a really
he's a pro I'll actually
I'll put that link up we'll have it up on the
Twitter the at the mm
podcast
Twitter handle we'll have all of that shit up there for you
um
so yeah that's basically what I would do
shut this fucking thing off
ah Jesus Christ
what did I do
please tell me I didn't
fuck this whole podcast up is that better
was I leaning on this
thing forever well I don't have time to fix it
god dammit
at some point I'm gonna make
I'm gonna make this a professional operation
alright let's get to the next little I guess the final
one here um
tennis oh by the way the flute
the flute is the one fucking instrument that
there's just no
there was there's no cool way
to play that instrument
you know
they just isn't and I don't want to hear about
Jethro Tull
do do do do
I don't want to hear it
um
yeah the flute the piccolo
like those are those are great little add-ons when you
have an entire symphony
like that's like the curb finders
for the
you know remember back in the day
when you're like alright I've tinted the windows
I have my vanity plate
you know
I got a
I got fuzzy dice hanging from
the fucking rear view mirror
what's the last thing you put curb
finders on because
you didn't want to damage your rims
that's what a flute or like a piccolo is
I mean who would even respect there's no way
somebody just plays the piccolo
like you
you're definitely playing multiple
fucking instruments and you like the utility guy
in the team
like hey we need you to play right field
alright I'll play the fucking piccolo right
um alright tennis anyone
dear Billy Agassi
this person says
I've heard you mention anything I have never
heard you mention anything about playing tennis
it sounds to me like a sport
you and the lovely Nia would enjoy
you're in your Jack LaLaine
stage and hell seems to be important
to you tennis is a great workout
and after playing a handful of
times you can actually see yourself getting
better in your case we wouldn't
call them tennis whites we call
them tennis pasty whites
hey everybody
keep it going for
that guy
um what's your history with
the sport ever give it a go
yeah I grew up in the 80s
the big tennis boom was in the 70s
so you know the fall out of it
was still there I still have an oversized
fucking racket
probably with cat gut strings
um
no offense peter
but that's the way they made him back then
and maybe they're nylon I have no fucking idea
um
I like I love tennis
I love watching that type of shit as far as
running around I my back
and shin splints I'm not fucking doing that
I see you know those people who play
those running around sports
basketball and all of them
you ever see those guys when they get to their
30s and into their 40s and they're still fucking
coming out there
tape from their ankle all the way up
to their hip your body was
not designed to fucking do that running
around I play on a grass
surface
if they got a local
uh Wimbledon replica
I'd fucking play on that shit
um you know what's funny
so I got a tennis racket like everybody I played
a little bit um
in the 80s with my buddies
you know and we would talk all kinds of shit
we go out there and we get drunk go down
with the public court you know the one that had the cracks
in it with the grass coming up and like
no net so you just tie a string across it
and you'd be playing at night you'd be arguing
if it went over or under remember that shit
that's the way we'd play we had a great time
and um
so when I moved out and went
to New York City you know when I was packing the vitals
obviously the tennis racket didn't
make it and I remember
uh one one time
I met this really really nice woman
and I wanted to go on a date and she was
like she suggested
playing tennis because she was
nice you know rather than going on
getting booze and I was like yeah I got a tennis
racket and I liked her so much actually
had my parents
mail me my tennis racket
down to me and
I went out to Brooklyn and we played tennis
hahahaha
and she won
and
that was the end of that
the relationship lasted a little bit longer than that
but yeah that's probably
I don't not into that
shit
I'm not into uh
although I gotta tell you I went over to Brooklyn Bridge
and I jogged across it all the way back
to my hotel and I was surprised
that I had that kind of wind
but I got back into skipping rope again
I have to tell you guys this is the work out
that I used to do back in the day
I would uh I put on
classic sports network
before they got bought up by
fucking ESPN
and um I would
tape old fights
or you know if De La Hoya he was the big guy
back then um
you know if he had a nice 12 round fight
I would record it
and hopefully it went like 9, 10, 11, 12 rounds
and then what I would do was
when I would watch it
during my workout and what I would do
when the boxers were fighting
I would be skipping rope
and I would be watching the fight
and when they rested I would stop skipping rope
and then uh
when they you know started fighting again
I was back on the on the on the rope
and I would just try to just build
myself up to see how many fucking rounds
I could get to
and uh
you really gain an appreciation
for the kind of fucking shape
that those guys are in because you're just sitting there
like wee wee wee
they're actually trying
to prevent somebody from beating the shit
out of them while they try and beat the shit out of them
you know that if you've had a fight in your fucking life
you know if
nobody trains to have a bar fight
it just fucking happens do you remember
that shit how when did you were after like
it I mean how long is a
bar fight last it's like under under
usually under 30 seconds
you hear the glass breaking
you hear all the fucking shit if you actually
cut out all the shit
talking and so you want fucking
fucking with the wrong guy
if you want to cut out all of that shit
and just get down to the fighting aspect of it
it's usually under 30 seconds
and I swear to
like how hard you're breathing
it is ridiculous and these guys
are just
12 rounds of that shit it's just it's unbelievable
um
so that's the kind of thing because I hate
going to the fucking gym I hate doing
cardio and all that type of stuff
so
I always try to have
something going on that I can
do
that just doesn't have me staring at the clock
and I feel like I'm in science class back in the day
you know so
so there you go that's one to grow on
everybody
I think I hit everything I might have to
pull up a little bit short here oh you know what
I forgot the last advertising for this week
