September 12th, 2022.
What's going on? How are ya?
It has happened. Football season has officially started.
How amazing.
You know what's amazing is you cannot fucking believe it.
And then, like, within like, I don't know what, like an hour?
It just already feels like it's been football season the whole year.
Like, I thought the whole game, I was gonna be like, oh my god, I can't believe how much it's happened.
It didn't. It didn't.
Within an hour of watching for it, I'm like, why the fuck are they going for it here?
That doesn't make any fucking sense.
I don't know, what the fuck are you doing?
Oh, nice play! Nice play!
That's what happens to me.
That's me watching a football game.
You see this right here? This is this new goddamn way of fucking coaching.
It makes no goddamn sense.
Oh, go, go, go, go!
That's what I do.
You kick it away here.
You kick it away.
Oh, first down! Yes!
The fuck I'm talking about!
When you're old, that's how you watch a football game.
Speaking of old, I'm watching Tom Brady, and he's finally looking at least like he's played in the league for 12 years.
You know?
He looks like that guy in Blink 182 now, I feel, like if he played, was it Thomas DeLong?
Angela's ashes.
Angel's in the outfield.
Anyway, I fucking missed all the football.
I mean, I missed just about everything because, you know, I'm just, I'm just fucking crazy busy till the 23rd.
After the 23rd September, my fucking life slows down.
My life slows down. It slows down.
All right?
And then what I'm going to do is I'm just going to tell everybody I have COVID.
And then they'll leave me alone, right?
And then when they call back after five, hey, just check it in just to see.
I got it again. I'm just going to keep saying I got COVID.
And then I'm going to say monkeypox.
And I feel if I do that, I'm good until November.
I just had a fucking incredible time out on the road.
I got to do one of my favorite cities, Tulsa, Oklahoma.
Unfortunately, I didn't get to do too much while I was there.
I did find a good coffee spot, which is pretty easy to do, by the way.
I'll let you know now that I'm new to coffee since March.
All right?
Way back when I was 53. I'm 54 now.
Okay?
The odometer's flipped since I started drinking coffee back in March.
It's not that hard to find good coffee with the internet.
I don't understand why people just go...
Like, why do they just fucking go to the fucking Starbucks?
Starbucks stinks.
Just burning the beans.
I'm telling you, I'm a fucking coffee snob already.
And my deal is if you can't make a fucking double espresso,
then I don't want anything else you have in that place.
I don't want to know you. I don't want to talk to you.
I don't want to set foot in your fucking...
I think you should be shut down.
No, it's not that bad.
But I basically...
I just read some reviews.
When they get the five stars, four and a half to five stars,
it's a really good chance that they can make a great espresso.
And I found a place in Tulsa.
I found a place.
I then went down to Houston.
Had a great time down there.
Got to walk around a little bit in that city.
I kind of like to walk around the city rather than get on like a treadmill.
Although I did do the elliptical this morning.
But I like to, you know, try to find a place, you know, about a mile away.
So I took a 15-minute walk out, 15-minute walk back, you know.
Now I'm going to get a bunch of emails.
Dude, it takes you 15 minutes. What's it like to be old?
Well, if you don't jaywalk and put your life in your fucking hands,
yeah, it'll take you about 15 minutes going up and down the hill.
I went to this place in Tulsa. It was pretty cool.
I walked over a bridge, came down, and there was some sort of weed store.
You couldn't even see the sign for it.
And I actually walked around the back because I thought the front was a weed store and I came in.
And lo and behold, I was drinking a liquid death.
And the barista, look at me learning all the young people words.
The barista said, what did he say? Nice choice.
Nice choice. And I want to be like, you fucking telling me nice choice?
I'm no guy that been shilling this shit.
Fucking talking to me like all of a sudden he discovered something.
You know, I found this band first.
You know what, it's football season.
I'm moving this fucking chair back and I'm sitting in the Archie Bunker chair
when I do this fucking podcast.
All right, I've had it. It's football season.
Football season means you as an unathletic, man-titted father
get to sit in a big brown chair like you hunted for big game in Africa
and you sit down and you watch the late game on Sunday night
and all your loved ones know better.
They know better to keep their fucking distance.
Oh, am I going to put my feet up? I think I am.
This right here is America.
This is America.
You know how America this is right now?
How America is a belt?
I'll tell you, if fucking China took us over, they would know good and goddamn well.
Everything that they fucking took over, they couldn't take this away.
If they took this away, they'd have to fucking, they'd have to deal with a lot.
Oh, Jesus.
I've been looking at guns lately.
You know, I've been working out and every morning when I brush my teeth,
the fucking biceps are really, really coming up.
I'm fucking, yeah.
I think I'm going to buy a 38. I like a 38, you know?
I wish I still was 38. It's only six bullets.
I don't like the idea of like hiding behind my ottoman after I missed the first six,
you know, pushing it back with my head like in an action movie
as I fucking, you know, try to reload it again.
I mean, I just grew up on shows like that.
That's what you did. You found something that wasn't bulletproof
and you turned your back on your target and you spilled the bullets down by,
that's how it was done.
Yeah, I think it's a good way to go because eventually the Ponzi scheme collapses
and then I live out here in a desert that has no water supply.
So eventually, and we really don't have any game out here,
so you're going to have to eat other your neighbors pretty quickly
unless you band together with them and then you go neighborhood to neighborhood
type of fighting or whatever.
I think that's how it's going to go down.
Bill, what happened? We were talking football. You're right. You're right. We were.
Hey, let's talk Fenway Park Merch is now available.
Baseball tees and windbreakers.
Use the link in the podcast description.
I guess he's going to post that.
So there you go.
We had a few things left over from the Fenway Park show.
So you'll be able to buy them.
We'll have the link right there with the podcast evidently.
However the hell that works.
I was not able to all I watched was the highlight of my Super Bowl pick
and everybody else's out of the AFC is the Buffalo Bills
and they went up against the defending Super Bowl champions
and root week one on a Thursday night and evidently they went back
and forth for a minute and then just they just took over the game.
I guess they're defensive from the highlights.
The defense looked amazing.
Josh Allen ended a ram cornerbacks career with a stiff arm
and then they just by the I guess by the second half
they just beat the shit out of them and yeah
I really really like their chances because I feel like the AFC West
they're just going to beat the fuck out of each other going
but they don't really do that anymore.
The one game I did watch.
The second half of the charges.
First the Las Vegas.
Erades.
Erades.
Kickers up and it's good.
902 into the first quarter.
Dallas draws first blood.
All the small things.
Tom Brady I'm next.
Say it ain't so.
Why will not go.
Turn the lights off.
I mean that's fucking right there.
I mean if you want to get nine million people going nuts
I mean that's a melody right there.
I stand by that.
I like a good pop fucking song.
Sick of all these fucking deep cut sons of bitches
trying to make me feel like I don't know what music is.
I never said I knew what music was.
Okay I have a very simple brain.
Okay it's a straight six.
Okay if you just go.
I'll do it with you.
I'm not questioning anything.
You know.
Being dumb isn't bad if you admit it.
You know and people actually they'll help you out.
You just fucking say listen I'm not the brightest guy.
Oh he's stupid.
Let's help him.
It works.
It's been working for me for a long time.
Anyway so after I went to Tulsa.
I went to Tulsa.
I went to Tulsa.
I went to Tulsa.
I went to Tulsa.
Um.
You know this is a big tour.
Next time I'm telling you next time I'm coming around
I'm talking to my agent.
I'm not fucking doing these big gigantic motherfuckers.
I'm gonna be doing like
staying in a
in a
like you know
staying someplace for a couple two three days.
I'm not gonna just go to Tulsa
for fucking
you know
I ain't do the show and then leave.
What the fuck's the point of going to Tulsa?
It's annoying.
And then I found out the next day the Oklahoma
had a whole game I would have drove over to Norman
unless they had the flex schedule.
The flex schedule the fucking
money grubbing cunts.
Just tell me what time the fucking game is.
I'm gonna stand halfway through second and third
to see if the ball's gonna drop.
Ha ha ha ha.
Kids I've nobody's ever
answered me this question. Why the fuck
do you go you're on second base.
There's no outs.
Somebody hits a fly ball to right field.
Why do you just automatically
go halfway?
Why do you do in case he drops it?
He's not gonna fucking drop it.
And you've completely eliminated
your ability to ever tag up.
Like what if he catches it
but then falls on his ass.
You're still not gonna get third.
I think that that makes no fucking sense.
The same way when I watched
the second half of the San Diego
I'm sorry the Los Angeles
yeah
versus the Las Vegas
This was my assessment
as someone who hasn't played organized sports
since the fifth grade
I got a D in math
ended my career
I
I as much as they
picked off Derek Carr three times
and made him fumble
twice
I just thought that I just saw a lot of
big chunk yardage. Maybe that's how the
game is now.
I mean it's been like that but
it's just a lot of just stiff arms and charges
just falling on their backs.
Like who the fuck was that guy on the Raiders
like he would catch like a little fucking
a little out on the flat and then
he just would go beige
beige
to two to three guys and they would just all fall on the back
as he ran diagonally for a first down
I don't know.
Who gives a fuck? It's the first game of the week
and you guys are the first
week of the season I should say and you listen to
stand-up comedians. What do I know?
But you know I'm doing that
bad MGM thing going up against the great Paul
Verzi the returning champion from last
year we bet against the spread
and we go face-to-face
for the Jimmy the Greek award
he won it last year and
I don't know how we did this week
I think we might have both gone two and two
I took the
I took the Chargers
and won that one
I took the Ravens
which was the gift of the week against the
Jets
and then I took
Arizona against the Chiefs
because I said that the Chiefs
obviously start slow
I don't know about you but as a
football fan I kinda like a pissed off
Patrick Mahomes
My Patriots got
I guess we didn't write the first half
but then we just kind of
it's gonna be like
we're gonna be competitive before it gets better
I'm hoping
we still have the greatest coach of all time
at least since
I would say
Paul Brown
and Paul Brown is the right choice
if you're talking championships and changing the game
and longevity and success
and a nice head of hair
you gotta go Paul Brown
but I gotta be honest with you
it's kinda nice
being like middle of the pack
nobody fucking
paying attention to your ESPN
not talking about you anymore
it's kinda nice
you can just sort of sit down
throw some money on some games
watch the rebuilding process
I love a rebuilding process
I'm enjoying watching what the Red Sox are doing
they're bringing a bunch of people up from
Worcester
out there near the Akua Koo
the long-sense
the funk Chinese restaurant
that was some good fucking food
if you're an old mass hole like me
they had one location in Worcester
they had another one in Cambridge
both of them had a great function room
does anybody know how to fucking tackle
I guess you can't
you gotta lead with your shoulder
you have to signal
I don't know what you're supposed to do
it's a different game
I saw Brady was saying
he was really physical
and now it's more
I guess performance
yes Bill, we've watched football
as long as you have
relax
why doesn't everybody just fucking relax
so then I went down to Houston
after I went to Tulsa
for probably the third or fourth time
and I didn't
I still have yet to go to the Outsiders house
which is something I want to do
I also want to ride
a Harley Davidson road king
around the outskirts
of a city like that
there's not a whole bunch of traffic
and that type of shit
that's one of my bucket list things to do
to be out there
just driving by a bunch of
fucking Donald Trump signs
and American flags and all that
out in the sticks
you know what I mean? I feel like I've driven
a Prius by enough Obama
and Joe Biden signs
I think I need to see the other half of America
nice fucking tackle
right in the
backfield
you know the old me
I was just in Dallas last night
Saturday night
that is and the old me
would have had out the football schedule
going wait a minute
wait a minute
cowboys are playing the Tom Brady
fucking ears
I gotta go see that fucking game
how ever
um
I got the kids to come home
to now man so
I came home
was awesome they came running down the stairs
tackled me and they basically
used me as like a bouncy house
is what I find I think part of
it's my problem because I get down on the floor with them
and then they just start jumping on me
so I was playing with my son
and then my daughter like literally
leaps up in the air and lands on my shoulders
and I let out a scream because I was anticipating
throwing out my back and nothing
happened so it was kind of startled everybody
I just went like I went
when she did it
and um
fortunately nothing happened
but um
kids are fucking hilarious man
I mean as a dude do they ever not
hit you in the junk
I mean they can be on the other side
of the room throw something it hits you in the junk
they come over to hug you
and they come like from the side
and as they go to grab you they just punch you
in the dick it's just fucking unbelievable
they go to jump off
you they lose their footing and just
step right on your junk
it's
it's
it's
about to go to a sporting goods store and buy a cup
but anyway it's
awesome to be back I had a great time
when I was out in Dallas
I had so many friends that
came out and then other people that I didn't see
I actually went by I was really cool
I went by Gas Monkey garage
came down I got to meet
the fucking one and only Richard
Rawlings
gave me this nice tour of the place
and
he just had a really really really fucking
cool
badass collection of cars
where he had everything
from the shit everybody wants
to obscure stuff
to then my favorite
just random weird shit
like he had like a 72
crew cab tow truck
and it was a Ford
then he had a couple
of some of these older cars
that I just didn't picture
him you know
that being in his wheel house but like
like his
appreciations of cars goes all the way
all the way all the way back
what else
then he had a sick ass like this fucking
1978
red trans am
with the teetops
the fucking
flaming eagle whatever the fuck it is on the hood man
that badass car
he had this other he had a Ford
Pinto that I love that was jacked up in the back
you know when they used to put the fucking
giant slicks on the back it was all about
jacking up the rear end and putting the giant
tires getting all that rubber on the road
um
yeah it was really cool got to do that
kind of did that we drove up from Houston
swung by saw that
and then we went and we did the show
and um
I worked with uh Bianca Cristavau
she fucking killed it
the whole weekend and
uh
got me to go to the gym this morning so that was a
that was a two for one there
um
I don't know but old Billy Boy's got to live some
life here once once I once I fucking
I'm almost done with this movie
putting this movie together
and we've been showing the trailer at my shows
getting a great response
very excited about that but uh
I got to go live some life
you know because
uh
I'm getting sick of my act
it's getting a little stale there
um
but speaking of which I'm going to two fucking fun
comedy cities next week I'm going to DC
and I go to uh Philadelphia
so that'll be good another fucking
flight across the country
swear to god
remember towards the end of his life Michael
Jackson we're just sleeping that fucking tank
you know
and just use like
fucking that shit if you're getting your appendix out
anesthesia
I
don't understand
why they just don't do that to everybody on the plane
we have a very full flight everybody just
deals with that everybody puts the bags
in the overhead compartment and then when they go
to take off you just fucking just put everybody
to sleep
there would be net then would never be
at no more hijackings
you know no more
fights on the plane
no more people fighting
over fucking arm rest they just put
you out
okay everybody turn it on
the gas just turn
on the gas
and then all of a sudden there's just a gentle
hand shaking your shoulder hey we're
in New York oh
really oh great thanks
that'd be so hard
um
well Bill you could always self medicate
I used to do that
when I just couldn't go across the country again
I used to just start pounding fucking
booze if I get like
a cool like male stewardess
or a stewardess whatever the
fuck you call stewards
a steward and a stewardess
oh interception now
we dropped it
um
yeah I had a couple
flights like that with someone
like knew my act
and they were
they were a fan of it thank god
maybe they weren't they were doing something with my drinks or whatever
but they just would just start fucking
bringing them and
I remember one flight in particular
where I
had maybe
I think six doubles
bourbons
I just kept pounding them
and I never passed out
and but I had a great time
I forget where I was going obviously
and I just got off I got off the plane
fucking hammered and I remember
I met the driver fucking hammers
yeah that's when I was going
out of control there was another time I boozed on a flight
and I ended up
fucking talking to a passenger and he drove
me home
it was getting a little sideways
it's good that I don't drink anymore
um
so
anyway
um
I just completely lost my train of thought
here we have no reads this week
I don't know what I've done I think I've pissed off
all of my advertisers like how do you
what nobody wants to sell anything this week
you don't have anything to sell
I have things to sell I have
Fenway Park merchandise
which is now available
baseball tees and
windbreakers
this is just for people who might be walking by
in the background if you have this on speakers
hey
I got windbreakers and baseball tees
use the link in the podcast description
um
yeah I gotta be honest with you
out of all of Texas I think
I'm a Dallas guy
I really like
Dallas
I like how much they give a fuck about the cowboys
I like the cowboys
um
you know
it's a clean city
you can fucking live out there
for like you know
decent amount of money
you're out Drew Pearson
Michael Irvin they both wore
88 look at that
um
sorry commercial in the background
um
no I think if I was gonna like if I was gonna live
uh
uh
you know it gets cold a little bit sometimes it snows
right
but I don't want to move to another
drought fucking state
if I was gonna do that you know
I don't know
Bill what are you talking about you're talking about drought in your state
you're talking about getting a gun
what are you doing man
riding a Harley
through fucking
Trump cities
can
the Republicans don't have anybody else that they
can fucking throw our way
you know the Democrats
can't just be like Joe Biden is uh
he's a little fucking loopy
can't get rid of him you can't why don't we just
can we just like clean the slate and just start over again
do like uh you know like when teams
rebuild
can we send like can we act like we're the Marlins
you know and just dump our whole team
and just let the Dodgers and Yankees pick up everybody
or the Lakers yeah let's send
Trump and Biden to the Lakers
and we'll start over
for a couple of draft picks
and we'll just start over again maybe
maybe people could like each other again
and maybe along the way we could get rid of Fox News
and fucking CNN and they would stop stirring
people up every
single fucking day
god damn it can you let people
get along
I gotta be honest like I've lived
a long time at this point 54 years
I've never seen it like this like it is it's fucking
bananas
like those maniacs that like I mean
there was always maniacs but Jesus Christ
if you know if you could just let go
of your political party for a second and just be impartial
and just really think of the
fucking behavior on both sides
over the last fucking I don't know what
five six years I mean
fucking lunatics
on both sides
just fucking lunatics
I don't know what do you do about it
I always have these fantasies that there's like
this elite hit squad
that could just go around
and like kill all the morons
and I don't mean like meatheads I don't mean like
just fucking sport I mean like
like morons I'm talking
sociopaths
and the people that follow them
it's getting too
fucking dark see this is why this is why usually
at this point
we have a little
bit of advertising I cleanse the palette
and then I get into your fucking ideas
that's what I usually end up doing
actually reshooting once we're adding a scene
to the movie and then we're reshooting another one
we just gotta add like one more joke too
which I've learned is a common
practice in making movies
so I'm pretty excited and I'm excited
about the people that we cast for tomorrow
so tomorrow we're shooting a couple of scenes
and then
I gotta
I got another busy day the next day
but then I'm going to a movie that I'm really
excited to see
that one of the actors that's in
old dad's
Bobby Cannavale is in
it's called Blonde
I believe it's called Blonde it's about
it's just really
I guess
I don't accurate dark whatever you
want to call it
movie about Marilyn Monroe
I believe Bobby gets to play
Joe DiMaggio which is pretty
fucking cool
because he's a huge Yankee fan
which he reminded me
a lot not so much during
the second half of the season but the first
half of the season
I heard a lot from him
we were
fast friends
and now it's more of a long distance
relationship I'm kidding he's fucking promoting his movies
so I'm going to go see
that
down the street
Billy fucking
star search
it's going to go down there
are you guys like me when I go to a movie
I eat like a fucking animal
I eat like a
fucking animal I'll get like two things
a candy a giant popcorn
and a fucking massive soda
and my body like three minutes in
is going stop
stop and I go alright
I go to stop and I don't
I just keep fucking going
I don't know
I would never eat that way at home
I would never eat that way like there's something about it
you're not home the lights are off
you can just hide in there
and just be the fucking animal
that you really are
there's been a couple times
back when I used to work out
and go to the gym and do shit like that before
I don't know what happened over the last
fucking year
I would be so into
working out that when I would go to a movie
I would not eat anything
and I would just have a fucking water
and I would sit there
sipping that fucking water
I mean
I mean I would love to hear
what the average calorie intake
is for the person that goes to a movie
I mean I'm definitely sending it through the roof
there's no way I'm not in four figures
when I go see a movie
a couple boxes of candy and like a fucking bag
of popcorn and a soda forget it
I mean that's like probably like what
1400
every douche in the podcast
listening right now
14 fucking try 2100
yeah bud
have fun losing a toe
three to three at this point
three to three
Tom Brady
three to three I say Brady comes along
he's gonna win this one
I'm a Patriots fan
I can't root against this guy
here we go number three
lining up I can't believe they didn't go for it
in today's NFL boom
bang six to three
Tampa Bay on top
alright let's get to some of your
some of your
what did I just do here
let's get to some of your
questions here oh you know what
when I went to that gas monkey
he told me that you can I didn't realize this
you can order an F-250 short bed
like they'll make it
I was like I didn't fucking know that
but then again I didn't want that anyways
I want to have that stock regular cab
eight foot bed
half a second he had me thinking about it
and he was saying
you should get the fucking
the F-250
Super Duty
Dooley
I think it's an F-450 if it's a Dooley right
with the
short bed and I actually went
online
and looked up and someone
made one
and I got to admit
I it's
so fucking cool and also
at the same time ridiculous
it literally looks like a combination
of a Tonka truck
or something like that you'd use to
tow an airplane back in the 70s
I might I'm gonna post a video
it's pretty
I don't know
I showed it to somebody and she was just like
why what would you do with that little
part in the back that little thing
but
it's like
nothing you don't do anything with it
you just drive around looking cool
that's the sole purpose
of that thing
but these people of course when they built it
they put some sick ass engine in the thing
and they were doing like a fucking burnout
I hate burnouts
I really do I always just look like
why are you doing that to those tires
it's just a fucking waste man come on
the air is polluted enough we got it
we can hear it we know it's strong
anyway I will
post that
I will post that video
oh look who it is everybody wait a minute
what is this why don't why the fuck these are
reads no
what the oh my god did I do
what I think I just did
how do I do this
why do I do this
I did a stand-up special from years ago
did I accidentally fucking erase my shit
today is not 98 god damn it
what in the
fuck did I do with it how do you
fucking accidentally erase something
Bill you fucking dumb cunt
I do this all the fucking time
and then I flip out and act like it's not just one
quick phone call to my to the wonderful
Andrew Themolus
Jesus Christ
here we go
I know he's watching this game
hang on a second everybody
let me fucking make this happen here
it's six to three by the way
everybody 101 to go in the
first quarter
hey I somehow I don't know
I'm doing the podcast right now I'm literally doing the
podcast right now like this phone
call is on the podcast
legally in California I have to let you know
that that you're on a podcast right now
I somehow erase the content
can you send send it to me so I don't keep fucking
stuttering here on the podcast
all right cool all right thank you
all right just like that
see that I started to flip out
no bill you did flip out well for me
that was starting to flip out
okay
I started to flip out
I pissed off Patrick
Mahomes who do they have next week
see this is the first two weeks are the
two hardest weeks to gamble on I feel
like after two weeks you can kind of figure it out
right like I don't know
who the fucking chiefs have next week
but I feel like a lot of gamblers
are gonna be like dude they look like
world beaters it's gonna be
the chiefs versus the bills just like last
year and all this type of shit
which it very well
maybe I don't know
but I
would stay away from the chiefs next week
although this week I said they'd start off slow
so if you're a
chiefs fan right now you have to be loving
me because I'm
staying with
I bet against you and now I'm saying
stay against stay away from your
team which is two negatives
towards your team which equals a positive
I think you start off
well I can't now if I say that then you're
gonna lose
I was gonna say that I think that you guys
might start off 2-1-0 there I said
I don't give a fuck I don't have that kind of power
I would win more bets
alright I got it back here
drinking water
yo Billy Redsock
if you haven't heard about the
drinking water crisis in Jackson Mississippi
it's cause the news isn't covering it
no I saw it
there is brown water coming
out of the faucet some instances
it looks like sludge
what happened
if you wanna know how it's being handled
you're not alone the National Guard
should be driving
tanker trucks of clean water in but they're
not we should rename
Jackson to
New Ukraine so maybe someone would give
a shit in Washington or on Twitter
I know isn't that amazing
where are all the Hollywood
liberals
who give a fuck about everything
they don't give a fuck they only care
if you have
on a blue fucking tie
but conversely
you guys out in Jackson
when our whole fucking states on fire
you guys are all out there
it's cause there are a bunch of pedophiles
banging fetuses inside
a fucking infinity pool up in the Hollywood
hills
we should all be helping each other out
um
anyway this person says
luckily for me I'm two hours away
and my family has well water
we bought lots of water to affected
friends and family we brought lots
of water but that's all we can do
if I had lots of money I'd take out
TV ads publicly shaming
everyone in charge
cause all these people go nameless
who fuck everything up
do you have any good ideas
um
I think what you're doing is a good idea
writing in like podcasts and that type of stuff
and I also think that what you did was great
which is you're helping out
your fellow Americans
when they need help
and I honestly believe
that
all of us know
that it doesn't matter
what color the tie is
that the person wears
or the bra
or whatever they
wears and chooses to wear
cause it's everybody's right
they make the fucking feel comfortable
in their clothes
um
none of them work for us
they all act like they do
and they go Joe six pack you guys
out here you put your pants on one leg at a time
it's all fucking lip service
at the end of the day they are grossly
underpaid
they're grossly underpaid
and they want a big fucking house
alright
so that makes them susceptible to bribes
and they work for special
interest groups, giant corporations
the bankers, the oil companies
all of this shit that's who the fuck they work for
so the bottom line
is
you know politicians
failed everybody a long fucking
time ago
and um
you know I think it's really easy to just
walk around going like hey he's fucking Democrats
these fucking libtards did this
or these these fucking conservatives
are just oh my
they're just horrible
and just act like
you don't have any power as an individual
I think if
people actually try to employ
like
you know
I am one person I'm gonna try to help one person
and I don't mean like
okay I'm driving to work
and there's some dusty human
being standing by my window
like a fucking zombie and I'm gonna give him five bucks
today I mean if that's all you can do
that's all you can do but I you know
I think
all of us
most of us
quoting me are not involved
in any sort of program where you take time
out during your week to help people out
and uh I think there's
a very small portion
of people
that do that and
I think if
everybody did that I think we could
change the vibe in this country
and we could maybe
freak out the fucking people up top
nah they would they would they would figure out
a way to pit us against each other again
um
but if we never bought into it
I don't know I don't know what their fucking game is
because I have no problem
with somebody ruling over me
it's just when
they they have this insatiable
no matter how much power
and how much money they have it's never enough
so
um
alright here's one
if anybody's out there and knows
this is the hardest thing
you know I have
a production company we can do
a benefit show
to raise
some money to get some fresh water out there
something like that get a fucking truck out there
maybe
we could do this somebody know
like how how would you how do you do that
it's got to be a way to do that
maybe we could look into that
I could do a stand up show we could
uh
you know then you try to create
something that everybody can
donate to and then there's like
taxes like how the fuck do you do this
and all of that and meanwhile people need
the water now I don't know I'm open to
any ideas that you guys
might have and um
I got to
shoot this thing tomorrow one of my
business people would be down there and I will
bring that up to them um
I will say this
year we the one fucking thing
I feel that I was able to do
this year was uh
we've got a bunch of school supplies
at a public school
and which is the best way because if you try to
give money it just goes to the main
fund
and then they it doesn't go to the school
you're actually trying to help it goes into some sort
of main it's really difficult so the best
way I found to help out
a a public
school if you want to it's just to go
to you know if you somehow run into
a teacher
and she just tells you the supplies they need then
you go out and you get them and you get right to there
you know this teacher was really psyched
that it happened so
um I think your email is
100%
on point
and
um
why aren't they helping them out
I can tell you why they're not helping them out
is because then Jackson Mississippi
doesn't make the people that can call
the National Guard enough money
that's what it is
Mississippi has been a state
that the United States gave up on
a long fucking time ago
um
I don't think the North ever cleaned up their mess
after
the civil war
I don't think we ever did anything to really try to
mend
things and I also think
that we use the South as a scapegoat
like only racist white people live
down there and that everybody
up north is this fucking you know
great
person there's a lot of problems
but you know what we could use this fucking problem
as a way to maybe turn it around look at that
it's not bad for a meathead that was pretty good little
can we there
who's got a fucking water truck
and how much does it cost to fill up
there we go
who's got a fucking truck
we need some people
with trucks let's get some
fucking water down there
and then we'll just write
something on the side that shames them
like this is what
you should have been doing
they'll probably figure out
how to stop them at the border
let's do that so somebody got a
who's got a giant fucking water truck
hang on a second I gotta look this up
can Richard Rawlings make us a fucking water truck
let me see something
water
truck
rental
let's see here
let's look at images
I want a big fucking tanker
there we go
water truck
2000 gallons
alright next search
here we go
how much does it cost to fill up
a 2000 gallon
water truck
I'm sorry I didn't understand the question
water truck
rental costs
4000
5000
gallon
how much does it cost to hire a
water truck
vital facts about water
truck for rent
low minimum a water
truck is simply a truck that has been fitted with the large
tank okay we know what it is
water trucks and special inlets
how much does it cost to hire a water
truck the cost
varies all over the country with that said
you can expect to pay around 400
400 bucks for
2000 gallons of water
they can't do that for these people
the cost of filling a 10,000
gallon
pool on your local I don't know not a pool
alright
alright we're gonna do this
400 bucks
for two
for 2000 gallons
alright slow down slow down
your brain bill so for five trucks
two grand for two grand I can
get five trucks to go down there I gotta
make this happen
when I finish this part
I want to do this this is like a 1970s
movie can we get Chris Christofferson
to fucking drive it in this is a rubber
duck coming in with your clean water
we got a bear in the air
um let's make it
happen
what the fuck
are we doing here
if I find this is as easy
as looking it up like that what why not
what the fuck do I care governments taking all my
goddamn money anyway I don't give a shit
you know
what'd you guys do if I sent him there and I put my
face all over the truck
and I use it as a way to promote
myself and my career
and on the back of the truck
it was just my freckled fingers
making the form of a heart you know those
douches who take they make those instagram
photos
we make the heart with your fingers in your
thumb
um
alright well then wait this isn't is it
then we'd have to fucking know we gotta get a
parking lot you can't just just drive there
and start spraying water people
you gotta get it there
alright
whatever
the idea is in motion I'm not
saying I'm gonna fucking make I'm gonna I don't
know how to do it I'm gonna figure out how to do it
it's gonna happen alright as far as
I'm gonna figure out how to do this
hilarious right after someone called
but he's gonna think I'm calling about the
shoot tomorrow
what's your shot list tomorrow
this has nothing to do with that
what say we rent
a 2,000 gallon water truck
for 400 bucks to fill it
then we rent the truck we have the guy
drive it there well it's gonna be one two grand
cause it's gonna be gas and all of that shit
um
I actually know a bus driver
that fucking lives in Mississippi
if he's got a fucking license to drive a bus
this is coming to get coming together
right now
over me
and then we gotta send it there and we gotta
make sure
everybody gets the water
I don't want to go down there and like
only fucking you know
it's gonna be
well you didn't give any of the white
people you fucking son of
and then starts all that shit up is everybody
come down
um alright drinking well
okay let's let's let's see if we can make that happen
that was exciting
you know what
I'm a really busy guy
lately
and I look at all planning with dread
that was fucking euphoria that whole thing
cause I was at the end of the day you're gonna be doing something good
granted
I'm just sitting here talking
I wanna fucking ride
in on the water truck like George Kennedy
in that fucking movie before the guy pushed him off
was it the dirty dozen
um alright 80s vs 90s music
hey Billy Basstrom
just listen to the
September 8th
Thursday podcast and love your description
of the 80s and 90s
in American music
the 80s being the big bombastic
come up and the 90s being the somber
moody come down
in England though it was kind of the opposite
in the 80s you had the dreary
downer stuff like the smiths
sorry hiccups
or jesus and Mary chain
um
killing joke
I'm living in the 80s
I love that fucking song
um then in the 90s
you had big bombastic
cocaine loving bands like Oasis
singing happy
uplifting anthems
and everyone was up
everyone was up
cool
Britannia
cool Britannia they called it
at least until Diana died
and killed the buzz yeah that was a buzz kill
um granted both of our
by the way they showed
the queens funeral
like she drove I don't know how fucking far
there was like thousands and thousands
and thousands and thousands
and thousands and thousands of fucking people
like 20 deep
the whole ride up
um
you know
you think you're an influencer with your little
fucking instagram page
uh granted both of our depictions
are just sweeping generalizations
and there are exceptions in both decades
on both sides of the pond of course
but I still thought it was an interesting observation
from a dumb angry
balding ginger I'm not a balding ginger
I am bald well I shaved my head
I still got some on top but it wasn't worth mentioning
you know it's
it ended up on the cutting room floor
sorry
then I mentioned I directed something oh look at you Bill
oh well Lottie
freaking die
um just thought you might be interested
another field going he fucking
missed it
he fucking missed it
he fucking missed it
jesus christ
just when I was sitting there going why the fuck
did the goddamn raiders
they're going
they're gonna go for two here it was 2419
they're gonna go for two so then they're only down by
three it's like why don't you kick the extra
point then the next time you get the ball if you score
a touchdown you could be up by three
if we just
gonna play hypotheticals here
well no cause then you know if you score
a touchdown you can go for two and then
you're tied
like this whole fucking thing going for two
and shrugging it off like it's no big deal
you're just leaving points
you're just leaving points
on the ground
instead of up on the scoreboard that that's just
it's just not good the only reason why it's working
I feel these are my fault
for me I feel is because
everybody's doing it
um bill we get it we get it
you'd kick the extra point and wouldn't go for two
alright anyway he says just thought you might
be interested in the difference of the scene
since I know you're a big music nerd like me
I definitely am
and um
I never really got into like
the smiths
or um
or uh
oh wait
a second I missed a whole paragraph here
in England though it was kind
of the opposite the smiths and Jesus and Mary and
Chains and all that said Margaret Thatcher
is fucking over the working class
music oh that's what they had
in the 80s alright then in the 90s you had
the big bombastic cocaine loving shit
sorry this comes in threes
there's nothing I could do
I know there's another sneeze in there
where are we here uh younger girlfriends
alright bill
it's been a busy
few weeks for all the saints
throwing judgment at Mr.
DiCaprio
uh the disdain coming from
the jealous female and the pussy
move comments coming from the pussy
move males is off the
church yeah I mean I don't like
hahahaha
I mean if you
had the ability to date the most beautiful
women in the world you would
like ladies if you had the ability
you don't give a shit about men to
fucking have all the most beautiful bags

of those fucking bags you're gonna have in
the goddamn closet

mad at guys because they like what are you

for Leo he doesn't have the privilege
of meeting girls with
any anonymity he's been
his he's been in several healthy
relationships with several healthy young women
who have all continued on with their careers
and I salute him yeah like there's no
be one thing if everyone was saying he was
an asshole there's none of that so
hang on I gotta get some water
oh
just a good old boy
oh I'm sorry
is this some more liquid death I believe
it is in a nice cool can
looking like a light
beer familiar
look at Tampa Bay look at them just running
downhill don't kick a fucking
field goal
whatever you do
yeah I'm a big believer in mind in your
own fucking business and if the people
involved aren't complaining then you shouldn't
be
they always
and it's always when a fucking women
always paying attention to what the fuck somebody else
is doing that's just all jealousy
that's all that is
I swear to god if he was banging fucking
25 year old ugly
broads no one would give a shit
who'd be sticking up for them
nobody
alright gathering
wood
am I am I crazy
dear bill greetings from
Germany hope my English is good
let me start by saying I traveled
to see you in London at Royal Albert
Hall and it was amazing
well thank you for doing that
because I needed a lot of people to show up that
night and
that is just
something I still can't believe I got to do
um
yeah
Jesus Christ
get me all goosebumps just thinking
about that place okay here we go you may
have heard
about what is going on in Germany's
energy crisis our price
of energy has gone up 10 times
our country has a very
hard winter ahead I've
taken up tasks to store
lots of wood in every place available
on our property my wife's
family thinks I'm insane because they
have faith in the same people that put us in
this position yeah
you know it's always good to hedge your bet
my wife's sister you want you know
you just sit there going hey I hope I'm wrong
I hope I'm wrong
then they can make fun of you and all your fucking
you know piles of wood hopefully
that's what happened
um
my wife's sister told our nephews that I'm
crazy and one of them even called me that
to my face they don't know anything
about what's going on in the world or what's
coming for our country should I let
them stay warm in the house
with all
the wood I've gathered
at the end of the day yeah but I'd make
them knock a couple extra times
if they they have to say that you're not
crazy before you come in
and it's not alright you're not crazy no no no
no it's gotta be longer than that
it's gotta be longer than that
I missed a family
birthday because I had
wait I missed something should I let them
stay in after when I would give I should
also say that I've driven
hours every week picking up
affordable firewood I missed
a family birthday because I had to do
it during my time off and couldn't go
any other time so am
I crazy and should I welcome
them over if they don't have heat
for weeks in the freezing temperatures
um I don't think you're crazy
like everything is fucking
crazy until shit
goes down
so yeah I don't
I don't think you're nuts I think
I actually think you're smart
and at the end of the day you don't have
to you know nothing happens and you don't
have to shop for fucking wood for years
and
I don't know just try to look the positive
that they think you're nuts that just means they've
lived a very great life that they
can't even fathom something like that happening
yeah I don't know I don't know all of that
shit is just like heavy stuff I feel if your
guts telling you you should do that and if
you're informed you feel you're informed and you
feel like this is the thing to do then I
would do it and there's there's no harm in
being wrong
alright that way
if you're wrong the other way then I don't know
what
you fucking freeze to death like
Jack Nicholson the end of
uh weekend at Bernie's there
what the fuck was it called
the uh
the snowy hotel
psycho killer
what was it the shiny
alright ocean plastic
a.k.a snowy hotel that was
what it's first called ocean plastic everybody
hey Billy redfish
two fish redfish bluefish I like that
hey Billy redfish
no need to fuck about
the plastic in the ocean is 75%
or more
uh from
industrial fishing
what is that I don't know what that means
good news you
using plastic drinking straws
isn't endangering the fishies
nor is it the
sole cause
for all the horrors in the world
bad news I love how this person just speaking
with this level of authority with nothing
to back up anything these are just
sentences
bad news it's still there
and we have absolutely no way of stopping more
from being added
more good news boyan
slat a kid from
Holland started a company to clean up the oceans
he's used automated robots
which go to the garbage
patch of heavily polluted rivers
and collect up plastics
he then has it
has it taken back to land to recycling
processing plants
we need more guys like that more bad news
more garbage is added
faster than slats robots can remove
at the moment
even more good news
he's expanding his fleet
and can remove 50,000 tons
a trip
which takes a couple of weeks
ending on good news
the plastic
in the ocean
is 75% or more from industrial
fishing
I don't think that's
true
that swirl
a trash in the middle of the fucking pacific
that's like two miles deep
two and a half time a mile deep
two and a half times the size of fucking texas last
I had the nerve to look at it
I didn't see a lot of fishing
poles in there
I don't know what it is
all I know is it's there
and it gets into the fish
and then you eat it
so I'm a reverse pescatarian
I don't fuck with fish anymore
unless it's man-made salmon
alright
then all I gotta worry about is some scientist just in it
sick fuck
alright
is that the end of the podcast
I believe it is
it's 9 to 3
this is really enjoyable I had a good time
and
I'm now gonna call my buddy
and try to figure some shit out here
I'm gonna call my bus driver
and I'm gonna call fucking
my buddy here
I'm gonna see if I can get a couple of trucks
why not let's do something
let's do something positive
instead of blaming liberals
who are these fucking conservatives
I think that's the answer people
maybe if we all gave a fuck a little bit
huh
I wish I could play the piano right now
just sing a song
make you all feel
guilty
as I somehow put myself above you
even though I haven't done shit for anybody
alright that's it
go fuck yourselves
incomplete pass
go fuck yourselves
and I will talk to you all check in on you
on Thursday
