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.
That's good. I had to wait till you responded.
You see that? That's the new me.
Trying to be a little more courteous.
Trying to listen to the listener.
No, to the speaker.
That's how much I interrupt people.
I actually call the other person
talking the listener.
I call the speaker the listener.
That's how I do it.
That gives a fuck.
Anyways, I got another
goddamn busy week.
I've been writing
on this show
that I'm trying to get on the fucking air
and I'm not going to tell you really what it is
because it doesn't make a difference
because most of them don't end up making it.
But I've been in the bubble
doing that all fucking day and then at night
I'm trying to go out and write some new jokes
because I got some shows coming up.
I'm going to be in San Francisco.
We just added another show
at the Davies Arena,
whatever the fuck it's called.
So I appreciate everybody in San Francisco.
I plan on kicking the shit out of you
and giving you your money's worth.
So I've been going out like every night here
in Los Angeles trying to get up on stage somewhere.
Somehow somewhere.
And I've been writing during the day.
I got a fucking job everybody.
You know, I got a little passcode key.
I come in, say hello to the fucking
person at the desk.
How are you?
And I fucking do the little swipey thing
and I go in there.
Bop bop bop bop bop bop
bop boop boop
and I fucking go in there and
I try to come up with some funny shit
to add to the other funny shit
that other people are writing.
No Jesus.
It's actually been a lot of fun to be honest with you
and I'm learning.
I'm learning to write.
I'm learning how a script comes together
which I never knew how to do it
because I was too scatterbrained
in life.
I'm a fucking quitter.
I really am.
When I go do something, if it's easy
and it's fun, I keep doing it.
If there's a little bit of work to it
that brutal combination
is if there's a little bit of work
and I don't like it, I'm done.
And that would explain
my high school transcript.
I did
horrible
in high school.
I don't know how.
If that was a PGA tournament
I would not have made the cut.
I think freshman year I might have made the cut
but sophomore, no.
Junior, no and especially not senior year.
It was over.
It was fucking over.
You know what my fucking high school performance
was like?
Basically the Broncos
last year's Super Bowl.
I walked up to the line of scrimmage
and I'm like I'm going to be a lawyer.
I'm going to Notre Dame.
Freshman year.
First play from scrimmage.
Everybody yelling.
I went right up over my head for safety.
I never got the rhythm back.
And there was no rhythm.
There was nothing.
I did really well right up to 8th grade.
Not really really well but I did great.
I gradually tapered off.
Like my academic career
from 1st grade to 12th grade
was like an athlete's career.
I had young fresh legs
and everything was going great.
I was bouncing up after hits and tackles
and all that shit.
I cruised through 1st, 2nd and 3rd grade
and I got my first
C I think
in 4th grade.
Then in 5th grade
I had to quit my baseball team
because I got a D in math.
Then 6th grade I came back strong.
Contract year.
Going into 7th grade.
7th grade I did decent.
8th grade I did decent.
Didn't quite live up to the big contract
they gave me after that stunning 6th grade year.
And then 9th grade.
I don't know. I blew out my Achilles.
Came back from injury and the sophomore.
I just shit the bed.
It was over.
By senior year
I was wearing my Joe Namath Rams jersey.
Academically speaking.
It was fucking over.
That's the way it was back in 1987.
This is the Monday morning podcast.
Any new listeners out there
how are you? Welcome to people who listen to this
around the world.
What the fuck happened in Scotland?
I thought that they were going to break away.
I thought they had had enough.
As I shouldn't read up on it at all
I should just start talking about it.
You know?
That's my God-given right as a fucking American, right?
Scotland.
Independence.
Let's see what happened.
Well the fuck's a fucking card.
The podcast.
You're fucking scared wearing cunt.
Polls were pretty bad it says.
Scotland faces challenge of putting
referendum behind them.
Oh yeah you just stirred everybody up.
There's probably even more fights
in the buzz.
I can't do a Scottish accent.
The only reason why I could say what I already said
was because it was said to me.
Other than that I can't do it.
I'm like a really bad impersonator.
You know what I mean?
Like a really bad impression is all they do
is the shit that people say in the movies.
Like I'll be back.
They just do that.
Or they can actually do Arnold Schwarzenegger
in therapy.
Talking about having a child at a wedlock.
You know?
Anyways.
I'm all over the fucking place.
The pros and cons of Scottish independence.
As if your life wasn't boring enough.
Let's talk about this shit.
I think it's a good move that they didn't
break away.
Right?
Does Scotland have an army?
Or a navy?
Go fuck yourselves.
Alright? I'm sorry that I don't know this shit.
Okay?
Why don't you fucking invade somebody
every once in a while?
And maybe I'll know about your teams over there.
Alright. The referendum ends one debate.
But Spock's a new question
about the
devolution of power to Scotland.
I hope I said that right.
Scotland has rejected independence following
my turnout at yesterday's referendum.
Chief Counting Officer Mary Piccadilly
whatever the fuck her name is
has officially announced that no side won
by 55 percent
oh the no side.
I'm the worst.
That the no side won by 55
percent to 45 percent.
No normal person was allowed
to count the votes so everyone has to take that
as fact.
The clack in my shashashire council
was the first local authority
to announce its results at around
1.30 a.m. who gives a fuck.
Union has celebrated victories.
Blah blah blah blah blah. Nationalists won
Dundee by 50 blah blah blah.
What the fuck? Wait a minute.
Wait a minute.
When did Scotland become part of the UK?
The acts of union between Scotland
and England were passed in 1706
taking effect. Didn't they get taken over?
I don't know.
Something happened there. Next thing you know,
Mel Gibson was in dress. That's all I know.
He was in a skit.
Why are you going to...
I don't know anything about it.
I don't know anything about it
but I bet there was a bunch of old Scottish people
who didn't want to upset.
They were going to take the evil that they knew
rather than the unknown evil.
What are they doing? Taxing the shit out of you?
Making you do the shit jobs?
Is that what it is?
What would have happened to England if Scotland...
Can you guys answer me these fucking questions
because I'm not going to read up on it.
What would have happened to the power of England?
You know?
Which I don't even know what it's based on at this point
because they don't own shit anymore, do they?
What do they own?
They got like the Canary Islands
and Northern Ireland
and Scotland and Wales.
Right?
Falkland Islands. Didn't they lose that?
Something happened over there
like 30 fucking years ago
and all of a sudden the planes were taken off
straight up in the air.
Remember that?
Way back in the day, Nancy Reagan,
Ronald Reagan,
Margaret Thatcher.
I don't fucking know.
I don't know what happened.
I can't believe how little I even know about it.
I don't know anything about it.
I'm going to shut up then.
Well, congratulations to people of Scotland
who didn't want to leave
and I feel bad for those who did
and I really wish I could have talked
about it a little more intelligently
but once in a while you just
think the water is like two inches deep
and next thing you know you're in over your head.
That's what happened to me.
Oh Jesus, that might have been the worst
discussion of anything political ever.
That was even bad for me.
That was a fucking embarrassment.
I'll tell you right now
if that last conversation was indicative
of what this podcast is going to be
I can tell you right now I don't think
he's going to get it done this week.
If you think that you're going to have a good podcast
in the National Podcasting League
with that type of performance
what does that say about his preparation?
Do the American change?
I didn't watch any of that.
Do you guys watch any of the pre-game analysis?
I have a rental car,
still a rental car. I haven't seen my fucking
truck in like months
because the people fixing the downstairs
I got to walk through my garage and I don't want to get it
scratched, I don't want to leave it out on the street.
So I got it in storage. It started up once a week.
That's my life.
So anyways, I've been driving this fucking car.
I got this new one and I suck with technology.
I can't figure out how to turn
the radio on to auxiliary so I can listen
to my fucking show tunes there
as I drive down the street.
Roll out the barrel.
It's the kind of music I listen to when I drive.
You know?
I listen to Funny Girl.
Oklahoma
when there's something, something
and there's something, right?
I don't know
any fucking show tunes. Wait a minute.
To dream the impossible dream
To
dress like a fucking
kitty cat
To descend
on a glowing moon
Well, a crowd
of old hags
and some young
homosexuals
Cry in the crowd.
Um, anyways
Sorry.
Alright, what the fuck
am I talking about here?
There was something I wanted to talk about
before I started singing show tunes. Oh yeah,
I was driving down the fucking street in the car
and I can't figure out how to listen to my goddamn songs.
So I've just been listening to Sports Talk Radio.
Because I don't want to listen to
real news.
It's too fucking depressing.
I don't want to listen to them trying
to sell me on the idea that we just
have to go into Syria.
You know?
We just gotta do it.
It's our job
to go over there
and tell these people, hey, hey, hey,
that's about enough for that.
As we suck
their natural resources out of the fucking
ground and bomb the living
shit out of innocent people standing around,
you know? I don't want to listen to them sell me in on
another one of those.
It's initial freedom.
The way they are treating their women.
Uh, something needs to be done.
I don't give a fuck. I don't care anymore.
Alright? Oh, and I would vote.
I would vote if you actually fucking countered
them. Um,
and if I wasn't lazy as shit, I got a big
pamphlet today that was telling me all about the local
officials and I just took one look at that.
It's written on
recycled paper. It's overcast
paper. That's what it looks like.
Overcast skies, except it's typing
on it. They do it on purpose.
Who the fuck is gonna
read that?
Um,
so anyways, I was driving down the street
and I'm listening to
that mic and mic in the morning
and like I've been, I've been really hard on these
fucking pregame, postgame
sports talk guys. I actually now have
empathy for them. I understand what they're doing.
There's just too much time.
There's too much airtime
between games and they just have to
talk everything
to death.
And this week,
I swear to God,
Mike Golic
of the Mike and Mike show, right?
They read a letter
and
it was somebody who's basically, he was
respectfully tired
of listening to the Adrian Peterson
story, the Ray Rice
story and all of that shit.
And it was just like, can we just get back to talking
about football? Signed a
tired football fan and I swear to God
I'm paraphrasing but this is
kind of what Golic said. He goes, you know what
I wanna do? I wanna
right now
I don't wanna talk to the players.
I don't wanna talk to the owners. I don't wanna talk to the media.
I wanna talk to you
the fan.
No, no, Mike, Mike, this is something that
I wanna get out there is
is this game
your safe haven?
Is it your safe haven?
Like
on Sunday
when you sit down in your chair
and
and you take out
your favorite beverage
is that your safe haven?
Is the national
football, he kept saying is that
your safe haven? What the fuck
does that mean?
How simplistic and fucking stupid
do they think the average football
fan is?
Was I supposed to be driving in my car going
Hey, it's my safe haven.
I feel a haven of safety
when I watch football.
What the
fuck is he talking about? I gotta tell you something.
This is really
immature me. I hate when overweight
people bring up food. I don't know
what it is, but I swear to God
you can already hear them salivating.
I never had to issue with
the word beverage until I heard
Mike Golik say it. And you take out
your favorite beverage.
I just heard the fucking ice hitting the inside
of the glass and I swear to God I wanted
to drive into a fucking pole.
I had to shut it off like three times, but I
was like, no, this is good for the podcast.
You got to listen to it.
And he just
is it is it your safe haven?
I mean, just absolutely out of shit to talk
about. I mean, I didn't want I didn't what the
what the fuck is that? I didn't listen to it long
enough to somebody actually call in.
A safe fucking
haven.
You know what, I'm going to look that up right now and
I want to see examples of safe havens.
I know exactly what they are. It's like
captains in the middle of a fucking
storm trying to find a port so they don't get
smashed on rocks. Yeah, either that
or some fat fucking is pajamas
with some potato skins
watching football. Yeah, just let's just
let's just fucking devalue safe haven.
I'm looking it up right now.
Well, it was a movie.
There's a film.
It's a county.
How about a fucking definition?
Well, Bill, why don't you search for that
and stop yelling at a screen? All right.
All right, definition
safe haven a place
of refuge or security
temporary refuge
given to a
persecuted person or group.
So is he trying to say that we're persecuted
by them saying talking about the same
shit day after fucking
day after day.
Is it your safe
haven
an officially protected place
in an area of military activity
or any safe or peaceful
place in a dangerous
area.
All right. I mean, my nuts
to say that he overstepped the bounds
of the definition of that word
to apply it to
sitting there fucking eating pizza and drinking booze.
You know,
I don't fucking know.
Anyways,
and I'm sitting there going like how
fucking dumb does this guy think
the average football fan is
and then I watched the FSU
game
and I am a huge fan
of Florida State.
I've always loved the Seminoles.
I want to go to a game.
I went to I did a show down there like a year and a half
ago, but I got to tell you something.
I watched this fucking game
and in the first drive alone, they played
that fucking
what are you called the Tomahawk
chant song. They must have played it
like seven times.
Right. And the fucking crowd is going
like
the fucking arms.
I get it. Everybody's got their little
thing that they do, you know,
and
you know, whatever you just kind of fucking
mocking a group
of people that
were victims of genocide.
I mean, who's to say?
I mean, if the Nazis,
you know, if they won World War Two,
would they not have had their version
of the Tomahawk chop with Jewish people?
What would they be doing?
What if you were doing, if the Nazis
won and then they
fucking named their team offensive
names about Jewish people,
what would the Tomahawk chop
what would it be?
Whatever the fuck you is.
Fuck you. I'm sorry. What do you want from me?
I'm tired.
Right. They would all have like fucking
they'd be dressed like Cicidic Jews
or something like that, but cartoonish
versions like one of them would come out
riding a fucking horse with a goddamn briefcase
of some shit
and he'd fucking
go to slam it down on the 50-yard line
forgetting it was handcuffed to his wrist
and he'd turn his head into a lawn dart
something like that, right?
Oh, he'd be
yada, yada, yaw
the Berlin
Woody Allen's
Berlin
Woody's
Sorry.
What do you want from me? Anyways,
what the fuck?
And what was worse
was they kept cutting to the crowd
and you know, I thought
I heard nothing, you know
I always heard that the chicks at FSU
were fucking
I heard they were hot dude
all I saw it looked like
you know, there was a hurricane
and everybody
I don't know
they looked for
a safe haven in fucking
in fucking Walmart and they just opened
the door and all these fucking zombies came out
it was just a bunch of people standing there mindlessly
moving their fucking
like
like I'm telling you like 15
20 times a half
40 times in a fucking game you're sitting there
doing that shit and I just
you know what I want to do right now
I don't want to talk to the players
I don't want to talk to me, I want to talk to the fans
I want to talk to the fans
in that fucking stadium
like what is going through your fucking head
the 30th
the 35th fucking time you're doing that
at any point do you sit there
and start to question whether you're
an individual anymore
what kind of a fucking person
I don't know, I've never been to the game
do you take a few of them off
right, you know what I'm going to do at this time
just so I can keep a piece of me
right, I don't know, don't listen to me
I am completely
social like beyond belief
and the stuff that actually makes me mad
it's weird, I like
can't stand people and I also like them
I can't stand them to the point I don't want to be
around them but when I see them doing
shit that I feel they're above
it makes me sad for them
like I was sad for some of those people
when I looked at them like what do you do
come on you know
I don't want to use that hacky term you're better than that
I hate when people say that shit you're better than that
it's like you know what you're better
than you're better than that, alright
don't try your fucking first grade psychology on me
oh baby I am better
than that, oh I guess I agree with you now
give me a fucking break
it's like
when you see people waiting out for a fucking
phone
like those fucking losers
I get it you're into it, I get it that you're into it
alright
whatever the fuck I'm into
alright
whatever, I like playing drums
let's say they came out with the greatest fucking drum kit
you could ever fucking have
and I wanted it
worse than I wanted anything in my life
like the way those fucking kids like the goddamn iPhone
this I'm not
sleeping out on a sidewalk
for it
when a week later I could just walk in
like a fucking human being go yeah let me get one of those
thank you
box it up they're rusty, right
gotta be the first one
gotta be the first one that has the phone
you know I asked this week on Twitter
I asked what Roku was
somebody gave me a Roku
right
I had no idea what, I opened it
and I had no idea what it was
and
um
you know what's funny
I so didn't even know what it was
I don't even like read
I noticed that about myself like
it said Roku right on the box
but I was just looking at the picture
of it and I was reading the
fine print immediately
and I didn't know what the fuck it was
so I did a live podcast with Al Madrigal
and
I was trying to describe
what it was because I didn't know what it was
and Neil Brennan I gotta give him props
actually called it he said is it a Roku
and I think I said no
anyways
I tried looking it up on the internet
in the description of it I still didn't
understand what it was
so like an asshole I asked on my twitter
I go hey does any, I just said
you know what's a Roku
and you can't believe this shit
I understand like the funny answers
that people gave me but there was a lot of people
giving me fucking shit
like I was a moron or something
I don't get that shit talking
with technology where
just because you go out and you buy the
latest thing like that somehow makes you
smarter than me no
I can see if you invented it
it's like the person who invented Roku
said I was a fucking moron
I mean I gotta take that one on the chin
but if you're just another
mouth-breathing moron like me
walking around a fucking Best Buy
and you walk in and you buy
a Roku I mean I don't get
the fucking shit talk
that's all I'm saying all these nerds
all of a sudden acting like cornerbacks in the NFL

alright with that let's get back to the
podcast here
anyways what else did I do this week
I watched a bunch of football
I've got to tell you
I've got to tell you I've got to be a little concerned
with what I saw up there in Foxboro
with the New England Patriots
you know what the Patriots have been doing
forever is we get
rid of guys
we get rid of veterans
in the final third of their career when they want
the big bucks we kind of let them go
Ty Law, Lawyer Malloy
that fucking defensive tackle
we sent to the Raiders I mean there's been so many
of them
latest one Logan Mankins
sent him to Tampa Bay or whatever
and
I don't think that's working for us
because you get a great veteran
and then that dude leaves
and then you have a hole in that position
for like three years waiting for somebody
to get up to speed and by the time
that guy figures out how to play the position
somebody else gets let go
and now we got a problem over there
I mean I guess you're always going to have a fucking problem
but
I don't know I see
a slowly starting to slide
I mean the way we let
the Raiders hang around
that long and
they should have won the fucking game
they didn't shoot
the Raiders they didn't shoot themselves in the foot
I just
don't understand why the Raiders they just I don't know
it's like they knew how to win games
and for the last 30 years they stopped
all went out the fucking
I don't know I think it's karma
it's a karma thing
it has to do with their fans and how they disgrace
being a football fan by going there
dressed up like Spongebob
square pants but you have on brass
knuckles I just don't understand that
I don't understand why you have to take your dignity
and throw it out the fucking window
I'm not talking about all Raider fans
you know what fans I'm talking about
alright so thank god
it was a home game so they didn't have to keep talking
about the black hole
you know
you know those places the black hole
the dog pound
the entire Seattle Seahawks stadium
actually watch it what a fucking game that was
man
Seattle Broncos game
fucking awesome game but at one point
they cut to the crowd and some guy had this fucking
lime green
sign that just said loud
like he went out and made that
or something
it's just the dumbest thing
I have to commend them
I mean I fast forward through a lot of it
because you know I
was out living a life and I came back and I watched
my tape of the game
and they didn't bring it up that much
which thank god they didn't
enough already with the stupid
12th man and all of that shit
anyways but the game
was fucking awesome
and I thought
Seattle I thought it was done
and what was it 20 to 5
17 to 5 or something like that
I think it was like 21 5 I don't even know
fucking
Broncos came back
you know Peyton throws the big pick
comes back with it I don't know
I don't get why on that final drive
whenever it's every fucking
drive is that the prevent defense
they always go down the field and score
or they always they always drive down at the
very least they're going to get in the red
zone that whole
bullshit of like you know we'll take away
the sidelines and we'll give them the middle of
the field and somehow there's just
magically not supposed to be enough time
left on the clock and they're fucking always
is like 90% of the time
but it actually seemed like
Seattle was
playing defense is that you blowing
your nose in there Nia
she's got the allergies
such a cute little nose
she makes all that noise
anyways it was a great
fucking game and I was happy that
you know both teams played well
and there wasn't any fucking incidents of screaming
yelling or any of that type of shit
that they started off bad
with them talking about the
the goddamn
Paul Taggiel
or fucking Pete Rosell whatever the fucking
new guy's name is I don't even know what his name is
Doug Fairbanks
we're going to go with that
Gary Greenberg
the fuck is his name
that's how much I don't watch it
I put it on and there's
Tom Jackson and Keenan
and I'm like
I like those guys
those guys used to play they know the fucking game
and then you know
they got the big
pasty doughy boy it looks like he's in one of those
Bigfoot fucking sitcoms
third rock from the sun
where they lived with Bigfoot and Alph made like a cameo
whatever the hell one of those furry fucking
shows right
he looks like the dad on one of those shows doesn't he
and
that could be
the chick he'd be like a milk maiden
you know
but he'd only be like a six
so anyways he goes up there
and he's like you know I
didn't get it right
I could have got it right I didn't get it right
next time we're going to do everything to make sure we
get it right
get it right
he's in there and sports speak
and
then they cut back to the players and then the players
you know are now fucking wearing
shirts and little suits and they're fucking
then they start talking going like
you know I heard an apology
but
I didn't hear any
didn't hear anything that was saying
what are they going to do in the future
oh my god
is it wrong to say
who gives a fuck at this point
the guy's not going to quit his god damn
job
you're not going to kick him out
alright he gets it
next time a player
slugs his wife fiance
or just some random woman
walking down the street
in the face
they're going to show the whole video
the first day
and they will suspend the person indefinitely
okay
you know what's great
halfway through when I was listening to that
sports talk radio show they had Al Michaels calling
who does not speak and sports speak
because
you know
he's found his own voice he's a legend
so he called up and he was just saying
how the whole league got tarred and feathered
because of a couple of guys and he actually
claimed
that the spousal abuse rate
in the NFL
not only is less than general society
but way less
so
what was all the screaming and yelling about
I don't fucking get it
all that fuck they have a real problem
they're doing a little better
doing better than the plumbers
contractors
stand-up comedians and everybody else
walking around outside that stadium
the new drinking game
listen to Mike and Mike in the morning
and every time Mike Gollick goes
ahhhhhh
in between points
you got to take a shot I swear to god
you're going to have your stomach pumped
45 minutes into it
they came out in the first quarter
and they were all over
um
okay
is there anything else to talk about here
I talked about Roku
I talked about the games
that I watched
oh double bass drumming by the way
I'm trying to you know I made fun of
I didn't make fun of it I just said you know
it's just so fucking fast after a while
that I
you know I don't hear a groove anymore
and some double bass drummers called
they fucking twittered me
and they were like eh I kind of bummed me out
you said you didn't like the blast beats and shit like that
I don't mean I don't like them I just
you know I don't know
I just don't gravitate towards
I already had that level of rage in me
I don't need a soundtrack to it
I need to go the other way
I need to listen to the sounds of waterfalls
you know
so anyways
I want to do another one of those
comedy jams and the song that I picked out
had a little bit of double bass in it so I've been trying to get
you know I pulled out the double pedal
from the fucking back of the closet
and um
I gotta tell you man it fucking
it's hard as shit
I've always respected that's why
I bought it like I bought a double pedal like 12 years ago
when my obsession with John Bonham
got to the point that all I was
doing was listening to Led Zeppelin
and I wasn't developing at all
any creative ideas nothing playing drums
so I was like why don't I get outside of this and get a double pedal
and I fucked around with it on and off
and I just never had the
discipline to stay with it
so I've been trying to stay with it the last couple of weeks
and um
I'm fucking horrible
I'm horrible I mean I'm talking like
85-90 beats per minute before it
starts sounding like I'm galloping
rather than a nice smooth sound so
I got I always had a ton of respect
oh you know what's funny I actually
opened for went down I did a guest spot
in front of Dean Del Rey at the improv
this week and he
used to sing in a band so he knows all these
musicians and one of the
guys that came down out to the show
was the drummer
from Slaya Dave Lombardo
I got to talk to him for a couple seconds
speaking of you know
legendary drum double bass
drumming
was a great fucking guy
and um
I don't know it's one of the great things about living out here in LA
it's like
you'll fucking move somewhere and that guy will be
your next door neighbor
because there's just people that are in
show business out here it's fucking hilarious
do you know I went to a Super Bowl party one time
and I met somebody and they were just like yeah
they
started talking to him and I found out his grandfather
played the guy
that was in the bed
with the severed horse head
in godfather one
how fucking cool is that
it's like your grandfather did that
yeah yeah you know
he had no idea how big the movie was gonna be
they put a fake head in there and he
screamed and yelled
what did your grandfather do
he worked at avis
um alright
let's move on okay
let's get to the lettuce for this week
the fucking
lettuce
uh bill stop saying
sorry dear billy redface
I have been listening to your podcast
for about a year
and you are hilarious
and I have noticed
he's spelling with like letters
not and he just the letter n
and I have noticed you say something
outrageous
and funny then say sorry
you're not responsible
you can say whatever the fuck you want
two ends in one
without
apologizing
keep those words spelled wrong
keep that shit up you funny bastard
thanks for the podcast
and go fuck yourself
um
no I'm gonna keep saying sorry
if I fucking do a joke then I think it's a little corny
or I went a little too long with it
I apologize I'm trying to have respect for you
but I appreciate the fact that you enjoy the podcast
please keep listening
alright American who grew up in Singapore
oh I love it
last week did any of you guys have the nerve
to do a canning video
holy shit
that's not something you
don't look at it because you won't ever forget it
um
hey billy I have lived
so this is an American who grew up in Singapore
I've lived in Singapore for 5 years
or I lived in Singapore for 5 years
in the late 80s through the early 90s
I was a kid but I remember they had
public commercials for caning
some were like the semi funny
DUI commercials we have in California
and some were like short film versions
of hostels
oh of hostel
oh wasn't that a horror movie
they even had billboards and bus signs
that depicted
offenses that would warrant caning
complete with
sore assed cartoon characters
caning was even a thing in their
soap operas and tv shows
the message was clear
you fuck around and you're gonna get caned
the Michael Fay thing
happened when I was 11 this is fascinating
but I remember feeling
no sympathy for the guy I always thought
he gave the US a bad name
for A being a dumb
ass in a foreign country and B
not owning up to his own bullshit
I have no love for
Singapore but I think their nation points out
a sad fact
the only way you can have a society
with less than one murder
a year no drug offenders
with a pristine subway
and he writes in parenthesis
you could literally eat ice cream
off the floor is by
hanging felons and beating
the shit out of everyone else
love ya
oh my god
jesus christ is that true
can you imagine if they had caning
in this country how many
of us would deserve a caning
how fucking crash you can act
and then before you get on your fucking
high horse anybody listen to this
in Canada, England and Australia
and all the other goddamn places
you'd all take a couple of fucking
you'd take a nice couple of fucking
wax yourself
you know
I went to slap my leg and even then I pulled it
because I didn't want to fucking hurt myself
yeah I guess so
if you hang felons
it really cuts out the whole recidivism
no repeat offenders in Singapore
and let me tell you something
they beat the shit out of you
this guy took like six of them
like sometimes
I heard punishments of up to 12
and some people were saying like
other parts of the world you get like 96 lashings
I mean you just passed out
I gotta tell you
is inhumane as it is
like let's just say I got
you know I don't want to put this fucking idea
in anybody's head
Jesus Christ
that would be it
I would
I don't know what I would do
you know what I would do
I would work in the back of a cold stone
creamery
if I ever took 96 lashings
that would be it that would be the end of my dreams
I would be a broken man
like alright dude I get it you're running shit
fuck this I'm going in the back here
I'm gonna fucking stir up some ice cream
I'll come out when I gotta sing the hi ho hi ho
we're making ice cream we go
whatever fucking song I gotta sing
I'm wearing the uniform
you know
everybody likes to think that there'd be that guy
going you know after they giving you 96
lashes and you're sitting there
you know when they come up to you and they say something
and you go fuck you
and you spit in their face
I think that just happens in the movies
even if you're thinking fuck you
you're not gonna say it again what is the point
of taking more lashes you're just like alright
I'm gonna get this motherfucker later
absolutely sir you are the boss
I got my mind right
I got my mind
shaking the bush
walking it off boss walking it off
alright bad luck
dear Mr. Burr
what to do
when everything goes south for an extended period of time
so I am a
32 year old with quite
a good track record
former semi pro hockey player
three university degrees
in rather good shape and overall not that ugly
and he got a sense of humor
you're crushing it
one sentence in I love this guy
two sentences however
I have had no luck with girls jobs
health in the past 10 years
I have had almost every disease
known to man
ok there is a little bit padding
in that story
I have unbelievably bad luck
with jobs always when I get
my dream job something from outside
comes and stops me getting there
this has happened three times now
and the last one was one of the classics
the company went to a hiring
freeze and let 25%
of the workforce go
well I can get some
but I just have no interactions with girls
with personalities I would like
they are out there
but if I meet them it does not go anywhere
I love sports
and now I have been unable to train for a year and a half
due to a disease
heart problems plus virus
I am unable to
do work
so there is that
even if I would like to get a job
there is none available and I am a cunt
working in the finance industry
I am sure I am not the only one
to be in this situation so my question
for you is how do you believe in your future
if everything has been shit so far
please go fornicate yourself
your sincerely
PS English
is not my first language so please excuse me
well that was pretty impressive
um
alright so how do you continue
um
thinking positively
um it is a choice
you just have to decide to do it
I mean what else are you going to do
are you going to let it win
you can't let it win
and everybody who has been successful
always has
you know they have all their stories
when they sit around
telling stories about
you know after they have been successful
all they talk about is the shit that they went through
which is most of panel
late night talk show
if a comic goes on he is not going to talk about the time
he killed he is going to talk about the time he bombed
the time he lost his agent
the time his fucking TV show got cancelled
all the pain of that and all that because
you know it is funny
but the big thing is
when you are sitting there watching it going this person
went through all of this shit
so I feel bad that you are going through all that
especially the health part
um
I don't know what kind of virus you have
like if you told me I would fucking know anything
I am a doctor obviously so
um
what I would do if I was you is
I would focus on what you can control
you can't work out but there is nothing stopping you
from eating perfectly
um
how about something low impact like yoga
like I don't
ever see where
light stretching
and eating as perfectly as you possibly can
would ever be a detriment
to your health so that would be a step in the positive
direction
and um
as far as your bad luck with women
fuck that dude fuck that
there is no such thing
you just keep getting back
what is the worst they are going to say
no
who gives a fuck
you are already laughing at yourself
you just become undeniable
you become unstoppable
it is just not going to beat you
who knows
who knows how long you are going to be here
who knows how long I am going to be here
but like every year you fucking live in your life
day to day you can't let it beat you
that is basically it
you make that fucking choice
now get out there in the second half
crush some ass
do some yoga
and eat some god damn beats
um
yeah that is what I would say I would just fucking refuse
to let this thing
just do that that fucking day to day thing
you might win but not today
alright
I am tougher than you today
go fuck yourself and I am enjoying this day
there you go I would do that
and uh
I don't know
and if you are going to be around women don't have
an angry energy like me that is like
raid to women don't do that
alright you attract psychos
and uh
it is just not a good situation
anyways
alright 100 days without booze
hey bill ball
bill ball sagins
parenthesis I don't know I tried
alright quickly to the point
I am doing 100 days clean
I love it
inspired by your podcast a while back
I like the whole deadline thing
knowing there is only x more days to go
when stuff makes it easier
makes it easier to do it
I feel better I am not pissed off as much
I am getting a handle on my money this is all good things
which is a lot easier
when you are not buying whiskey
slash rounds in Brooklyn
buzz
and he further goes on to say
so thanks for setting a good example on how to keep
that shit in check
only problem is it is kind of messing up my game
or what I thought was my game
which might have just been getting drunk
enough to think a 6
was a 9 for the night
instead of practicing some patience and self control
did you do the 100 days
when you were with Nia
or did you ever do sober stints
single
I am a single dude in my 30s and I am a writer
so I don't have an automatic social life
unless I go out at night
basically that means up till now
I have met all my previous girlfriends at bars or at shows
but now I feel like
if I am sober and they are not
then isn't that kind of like taking advantage
I know exactly what you are saying
yeah
I got 2 plus drinks in her
and I am not in the same
rocking boat
I am just standing on the deck watching everyone else swaying back and forth
it almost seems shady to be picking up gals
in other words
how the hell do you meet cool chicks
if you are taking a gentleman interlude from the booze
I know in the past
you have recommended like mixed gendered sports
and stuff just wondering
if you got any other insights
thanks
and go not even going to say it
alright
so judging by that
you are not athletic
because you already know what I suggested
so I would get involved in something else
get involved in something
dude if you could somehow cut out booze
and bars out of your fucking life
it is a great thing
get 8 hours sleep
you get more shit done
and then you start doing something else
I don't know what
join a fucking gym
it is way more social
because it is like a specific thing
that everybody is into
if you just go to the treadmill
then everybody has got their fucking headphones
on and shit
but if it is something more
like that rock climbing stuff
or
I don't know riding a bike
my shit is always physically active
I don't know what else to do
I don't know what other types of interaction things
you know what the fuck you are supposed to do
on a woman when she is drunk
yeah I don't like that either
that feels like some form of sexual assault
if you end up hooking up with them
if they are all over you
I still was always like alright
let me know what you think tomorrow
after the fucking hangover there
right there booze
I should fucking take a day off
man
I fucking drank it up yesterday
I ended up eating off a food truck
got a super fucking
deluxe burrito
whatever the hell you call it
horrific and I am paying for it today
oh god damn day
no energy stupid
fucking stupid
why can't I stop
maybe I should join that rock climbing gym

alright and there you go there's the ads for this
week
okay
here we go here's another guy laying
off the booze
another guy laying
off the booze
Billy Buster
of balls I'm a big fan
and an even bigger boozehound I'm a
47 year old boozer with a good job
successfully raising my two
young daughters myself you
recently went on a run of sobriety that I
admire can you talk more
on your fucking epic podcast
thank you about how you did it and what
types of foods you ate to help you replace
the sugar that your body missed
without the sweet mother's
milk of vodka thanks and go fuck
yourself yeah dude you're addicted
you're addicted
to sugar
like most people like myself or whatever
so what I found
with food is
it's really all about that first night
you know if you can eat
well all day on the first day
of your diet and right around four o'clock
five o'clock in the afternoon your body
starts craving the shit food that you've been
eating either something salty or sugar or
if you can just fucking push through that
you know drink
plenty of water not a dangerous level
of water don't fucking make the walls of
your cells fucking
not even exist anymore is that what happens
you can literally die from drinking too much
water just drink water
big salad with the protein and then
just make yourself go to bed that white
chocolate the first night
and then your body starts to get used
to that and after doing that for three days
you're on a nice track
and
to help you along
if you get that
hey Nia what is it dark chocolate
yeah
if you get that dark chocolate
it's weird like you just eat like a little corner
of it it feels way more dense
than like milk chocolate but it's not nearly
as sugary I don't even know if there's any sugar in it
but it kind of
keeps that sugar
thing at bay
and that's kind of a way you can kind of cheat
your way through it but what's cool about
your body is if you actually feed it healthy
food it craves healthy food like you'll
actually get psyched for a salad
with some chicken on it or some shit
believe it or not I never thought it was going to be possible
but I would say
you gotta be careful with the
salad dressings you know
and people always when they talk about calories
and shit they'll always say like you might as well
have had a Big Mac I 100%
disagree with that
it might even if the caloric intake
is equal there's nothing worse than a fucking
Big Mac because at the end of the day
if you had a giant fucking salad
with a ton of calories
dressing on top of it you still ate
a fucking salad where of a Big Mac
you just ate a Big Mac
alright and fuck all you
no-necked cunts
personal trainers who are now going to question that
that makes sense to me and I don't give a shit
about your degree
in fucking salad dressing
yeah so just white
knuckle it for the first three I need to do that
like I'm trying to get back into working out I've been so fucking busy
and I'm forcing myself to go
downstairs
because my body's saying I don't want to
do it I don't want to do it you drank last
night you ate that shit food let's fucking relax
and eat more shit food and I'm just going to
force myself to go down there and all I got to do
is that first set of push ups
the blood gets going and then the body's like
yeah yeah I want to do this I want to do this
and then you know half hour later you're like thank god I did this
and it's fucking over
so another great thing
especially a guy your age you're almost a little
a year older than me take a fucking
walk at night hey take a fucking
walk I'm telling you just walk
around the block at a nice
leisurely pace
you know put on your Walkman or whatever the
fuck you listen to now whatever the hell
you call it your phone your transistor
radio listen to some music
walk around the block
it's great you burn calories
you're not beating on your joints
you know you burn like 100-200 calories
just walking around the block right before you go to bed
nice big glass of fucking water
go to bed and then start your day
I like fucking oatmeal
with bananas and raisin in it no milk
no brown sugar none of that shit that's
going to send your body back get you back
on the smack fuck that it's a big lump
of shit that's good for you sits
right in your belly it fills you up
have a fucking apple for a
snack and then I don't know peanut butter and jelly
sandwich or a turkey sandwich lean turkey
sandwich and you're on your way and then you're all
the way to four o'clock
then they got to do is the salad and the protein
and just shove that shit sometimes
I'll do the salad at lunch just to get it out of the
fucking way just
fucking do that
and it's the end of the night again drink your giant thing
take another fucking walk and then your body's just
into that
and then you'll drop weight and then the hardest
fucking thing is
once your body gets used to that and you get
bored of that shit
or you start lying to yourself like
I could have a big mac I've been doing
you know I'm going to treat myself I've been doing well
if you're basically I've treated you're treating
yourself to the heroin again
and it's going to be in you for
three days and you got to be really careful
after you eat like shit for the next
three days because there's that demon is back
in you go and get a pizza
get some ice cream blah blah blah blah
I'm telling you at least that's how my body works
anyway
so good luck man you're making some smart choices
there all right three some problems
oh god
I want this guys life is fucking
great three some hey Nia
you want to come in for this one
Nido
well you're all stuffy
come on that'll be funny
next week okay
all right three some problems
greetings Billy boy
long time listener first time caller
question mark
as they used to say I realize
many if not most guys would love to have
my problems but nonetheless it's caused me
some headache so I thought I'd ask an
asshole like you for his two cents
well you've come to the right place
if you're looking for an a-hole my wife
of years
very much bisexual and we
have brought other women into our
relationship since we started dating
all right so
okay
is that still technically a marriage
I'm not trying to be a prude here
but like
um
all right so you guys are like
friends
it's fucking great
this is great
this fucking guy how the fuck
did you pull this off now not like we
I guess because his wife's bisexual anyways
not like we do this every Friday night
but since we are both very sexual
people and the fact that she has no
interest in screwing another dude it's
just a win-win yeah you
motherfucker what what what is your
problem you're taking up
valuable time on this podcast
for other people who actually have
problems he goes here is the rub so
to speak
most of the girls
have been hookups more or less
and that neither of us
had any real emotional attachment
to them yeah you got it I would think
you'd have to do it that way
what are you gonna bang your neighbor
and then have to see her for the rest of the time
hey how are you remember that time I diddle
you and then my wife was doing
that other thing to you
now we don't want to do it again we just wanted
to do it to you once
have a nice day Apple
while that sounds
crass all three
sometimes even four
once five
five at once all of us were consulting
adults etc etc how did you
have a two on five
did you go you must you guys
must be swingers
where did you go down to the Y we got
we got next we got next
standing outside
orgy
anyways he said but there is
one good friend of my wife that has found
her way into our bed off
and on for a few years now usually
after all of us have had one
too many cocktails yeah dude
alright
yeah you dance with the devil here again so
far so good except that this lady
let's call her Jenny
Jenny I got your
number you
wanna bang my wife
um
so far so good is just
okay we'll call her Jenny is just
as into
each of us personally as she
is into us as a couple
that is she is down to screw
each one of us individually
now this person right here is the real
winner in all of this because
you know she's not in a relationship
this person she's the one getting her cake
and eating it she has nothing to fucking lose
anyways
she says
well my wife was away
on business
I gave in and did the deed
Jenny insist that
A my wife would not consider this
cheating and B even if she
did she that is Jenny
would never tell her
part of the problem is that
like I mentioned my wife has zero
interest in other dudes and being the
ex frat guy that I am
I really would not be jealous
if she informed me
that she slept with a girl
while on a business trip
but at the same time my gut is telling
me she'd be very angry
and very hurt if she learned that I slept
with Jenny one
one-on-one in her absence
Jenny I have had sex three times
in my wife's absence yeah dude
you kind of have an affair right now
I feel like I am about the
absolute limit at which I can admit
all to my wife that is
after four five six eight
twelve whatever times it is no
longer a new problem
and is simply an affair should I just
come clean now considering that this is not
exactly your run of the mill
affair thanks my man
um
I don't know dude I would
I would immediately stop banging Jenny
on the side
um you know what dude
your relationship is
uh
complex to say the least
and uh there's going to be some security
issues there's going to be some
breaches in security so you had a breach
in security she's not going to say anything
you don't say anything you know
you basically fuck this woman that your
wife is fucked she just wasn't there
so I don't know what
that is uh that sounds like
a uh that sounds like offsetting
penalties no not really
because your wife is the other team
um
I don't know
I would I would stop banging her
and you did it three fucking times
I don't know if you want to say that that's your call
if you want to say something say something
you know that's going to be a shit storm
and your wife is probably going to
think you know they're vengeful
uh sex
so do the math
on that one if she's going to get you back
I don't think she's getting with Jenny
she's getting with Lenny
oh sorry
apologize
apologize for the pun
um is that a pun I don't know what it is
um so there you go
that is the uh that's the podcast for this week
everybody
uh J E T S J S J S J S
tonight playing I don't know who I don't know who
I don't know what I haven't watched him yet this year
but I am predicting the New England Patriots
are going to go 500 against the jets
500 against the bills 500 against the
dolphins maybe we'll beat one of them twice
um
I think all three of them might have got a little better
and I just think that we
get a little worse
I don't know
I just uh there's just something about I don't know
letting the Raiders hang around that long
the Raiders
no disrespect to the
greatest fucking emblem in all of sports
but they are what they are
and have been what they've been
for this fucking long so
I don't know what to tell you um anyways
other than I'm looking forward to it I'm trying not
to be a cunt this year
and uh rooting against teams and all that
shit it really kills a lot of my enjoyment of it
I know it's funny for you guys and that type of
shit but I'm just really busy I don't I don't
have time to fucking hate this year
uh that's it I'm just hoping it's going to be
a good game how do you like that that was even
handed all right go fuck yourselves I'll talk to
