Starting point is 00:00:01 Hey, what's going on? It's Bill Burr, and it's time for the Monday morning podcast for Monday. June 22nd, 2020, 2006. What's going on? How are you? How's it going, dude? Oh, geez, what's going on? What's going on there in the fucking states? Sorry, bad Irish accent. I'm in Belfast right now. I sat on this movie tomorrow, doing a little independent film over here. had a great time, brought the family over the weekend.
Starting point is 00:00:35 We drove up to Bally Castle. Got some fish and chips at Mortons. Right out of the sea into the oil. Sorry, it's going to be brutal. Brutal Irish accent. The whole way. Or whatever the fuck it is, I'm doing. Oh, my God, what a gorgeous country.
Starting point is 00:00:57 It's ridiculous. They shot some of Game of Thrones. the driver was saying along the way up the coast, they shot some scene up there where they opened some big, there's always some big door in those medieval things, right? There's always a dragon. There's always an evil cunt for a king, just drunk with power.
Starting point is 00:01:20 You know, not unlike all the evil cunts today, right? It's going to be interesting. You know, I really think that they know that there's a lot more of these Luigi guys, And that's why the level of fucking surveillance on your life. They, like this shit here where they're going to sink your phone up to your license plate and they're just going to know where the fuck you are at all fucking times. You know, you got to ask yourself, why are they acting like I'm John Gotti?
Starting point is 00:01:52 Why are you acting like I have some sort of social club, you know, and I'm hanging out drinking an espresso in Little Italy in the 1980s? wearing a shiny fucking suit. I'm not. I'm a fucking jerk off who goes to work and pays his taxes. Why do you need to know where the fuck I'm at at all times?
Starting point is 00:02:12 Because it's not anything that you or I are doing. It's what they're doing and what they're about to do. They know our reaction if somehow we all get on the same side, which I don't think we're going to because there's too many mouth-breathing
Starting point is 00:02:27 fucking morons out there that believe anything. that CNN or Fox News says, I don't know that we ever get on the same side. And just like the level of, like, lies that are on the internet to try to decipher what's the truth. And I actually think that these evil cunts that are beyond the politicians, I think that they do that. They put out over-the-top lies about themselves out there. So then you're not going to believe the truth when it comes out. Like there was one attributed to Jeff Bezos
Starting point is 00:03:02 that he felt that these data centers had priority over the water, over human beings, because human beings aren't going to evolve, but AI is. It was totally fabricated. So now they got that out there. So now
Starting point is 00:03:19 Bezos can actually say and do crazy fucking things because you go, oh, that's some more of that fake shit. Anyway, I think it's going to be like the future's really, you know, got to give it up to Hollywood. They kind of saw it. They saw it coming, you know, with Blade Runner and all of that shit.
Starting point is 00:03:42 I really think that that's Waterworld, Blade Runner, those, you know, what's the other classic one? Not Dune. Oh my God, I'm drawing a blank. The Mel Gibson one. set in a dystopian future driving all those crazy cars and the guy with the fucking Mohawk
Starting point is 00:04:02 I'll remember it at the end of the podcast that feels like whoever survives on the wrong side of the data center that's what your life's gonna be and the whole world's either gonna be flooded or be a giant beach and we'll all have to come together
Starting point is 00:04:23 to try to find what mountain the 1% are living under eating Kobe beef and doing whatever it is they're into with underage fucking children these, by the way, these are all real references. This is how fucked up the goddamn world is at this point.
Starting point is 00:04:47 But anyway, I'm having a great time here in Belfast and one of these days, when I have a day off, I want to take one of those black cab tours that they have over here that goes through the history of all that stuff I saw. when I was growing up with the troubles over here. And it's obviously a really dark tour.
Starting point is 00:05:09 But I don't know. I like to know where I'm at, what happened before I got here instead of just being some fucking idiot walking around getting fish and chips over here. I mean, I don't just want to steer into the negative. I will say this. What's amazing about Belfast, if you go into a pub, very few people are on their phone.
Starting point is 00:05:28 everybody's drinking and talking it's very social very you know telling stories the way it was when I was growing up like we went into this bar it was 40 me and uh my lovely wife we go into this bar and
Starting point is 00:05:45 there's this group of like 15 lads and one of them is wearing a wedding dress so Nia saw the person I don't know how she read it I was sitting there going like, oh, is that some guy that transitioned
Starting point is 00:06:07 and he's getting married now? I didn't know what the fuck was going on. And then we got over there when he was just acting normal. Normal for me is straight, right? Why would you use the word normal? Because that's my fucking normal, you cunt. So he's just acting regular.
Starting point is 00:06:28 That's even more insulting. So I'm like, wait a minute, this doesn't seem like some transnational. thing here. So me and Nia trying to guess. So Nia goes, he lost a bet. That's why he's got to work. Because no one was really like reacting
Starting point is 00:06:47 that he was dressed that way. They all just came in like it was fucking normal. And I go, no, I go, I bet he's getting married and this is like what they do, like some bachelor party sort of hazing thing. And she goes, no, he lost a bet. bet and she goes he has to wear it for a week so i started cracking up going i love how you just built in that time frame so your theory works so i forget what we bet we bet something stupid
Starting point is 00:07:15 and it turned out he was getting married or whatever but what i did notice is that they were all just drinking and talking and only one guy was on his phone for like half a second so i don't know that made me feel good and then um What was it? Saturday night, I went up and did a spot. Part of these huge podcasters over here. I never even get the name of the podcast, but they were playing this arena.
Starting point is 00:07:55 So this comedian I've gotten to know over here he's working on the movie. He said, hey, come down and do some time. And it's this weird thing out here where they don't do stand-up, really, They don't have stand-up on like Friday and Saturday nights because everybody's out drinking, talking, shooting the shit or whatever. So they have comedy like, I think Sunday through Thursday
Starting point is 00:08:18 is more like palatable for them out here. So anyway, the only game in town was this big show at like this hockey arena. It was like, I don't know, four or five thousand people and I went out and I did all right. I was a little rusty. But I'm going to try to do a couple more spots when I'm out here. You know, because I think I might do a show, you know,
Starting point is 00:08:49 to kind of pad independent film, you know. It's not a lot of don't on these things, but it's a great script, so I had to do it. So anyway, that's what I'm up to. So anyways, we went up to Bally Castle. And when we got up there, we were sitting there eating the fish and chips. you know, my wife and two kids and everything. It was just incredible, you know?
Starting point is 00:09:12 And all of these guys on motorcycles, because, like, it's sort of like, it was like the PCH in California with, like, New England's sort of, like, trees and stuff and greenery. But, like, with the farmland of maybe, like, an upstate New York or something. With the ocean. It was fucking. gorgeous. So it's a great place to ride a motorcycle, you know, all these twists and turns and stuff. And I saw it like, there was a bunch of old guys still riding motorcycles out here. It made me feel good.
Starting point is 00:09:54 This one guy had like the full on fucking MotoGP leathers, you know, with the airbag in the back. And I was thinking of myself like, yeah, you know, why wouldn't you? Why wouldn't you wear all that? I always see like, you know, when people just wear regular clothes on a motorcycle. I mean, you look like a badass or whatever, but you just think like, dude, if somebody fucking hits you and you go down, it's just going to take it right down to the bone. Crazy. Fucking crazy. I saw this, this Instagram video. This lady.
Starting point is 00:10:33 She's on a chopper. She's just tattooed all over. She's wearing like a bikini and no helmet. like flip-flops. And she's just sitting there looking at traffic waiting to go in. And then she goes down the fucking street. Brown is a fucking belt
Starting point is 00:10:58 from decades of just being out in the sun. Just like this fucking emaciated like lizard. I don't know. She'd been out in the sun so long. I think like her skin. was like riding leathers at that point anyway I don't know I don't know how the fuck people do shit like that like I'm always thinking about stuff like that
Starting point is 00:11:23 what if this happens what if that happens yeah I don't get that like if you ride a Harley you have to dress like somebody's eighth grade bully you know if you fucking wallet chain and shit fuck that I want to normalize wearing one of those Moto GP fucking suits ride no fucking road glide. Yeah, laugh all you want.
Starting point is 00:11:48 I'm just going to fucking, you know, slide and get right up and be like, all this is going to cost me is the price of the bike. I don't have to take skin off my ass and put it on my fucking leg, whatever the hell is they're doing. Jesus, this is a dark, goddamn conversation. So, anyway, I'm acclimated to the time over here.
Starting point is 00:12:10 and I'm going to I got to hit the gym today I got my coffee place I've been taking the kids all around they got some miniature golf and shit like that to do around here but I start working tomorrow so I just wish I started today like I love doing this shit but like the fucking
Starting point is 00:12:37 anxiety I get just waiting for that first take. That's what I, it's the fucking, it's never the gig. It's the waiting to do the gig, you know. In my brain, it still goes to the exact same place it went to the first time I ever had an acting gig. What if I stink? What if I get fired? What if I fuck this up? Still think that. I was thinking that before I did that show, stand up. What if they don't find me funny? What if I bomb? What if this is it?
Starting point is 00:13:18 What if I'm washed up? Please welcome Bill Burr! And I just walk out there, and then it always goes fine. But I don't know. I wish I didn't do that. You know? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:13:33 I don't do it necessarily in the States if I'm doing stand-up. But I do it when I go overseas, I do it with stand-up. But I always do it with acting. and it was really difficult when I first started acting because basically after you do a take if nobody says anything to you,
Starting point is 00:13:50 that means you did a good job. And I come from the exact opposite, instant feedback. So it took me a minute. So I would like finish a take and nobody'd say anything and I'd be like looking around. Literally would ask the nearest person holding like a microphone like, was that good? And they're just looking at like, I'm not listening.
Starting point is 00:14:11 I'm just making sure there's no fucking. airplane flying over us right now. I'm not actually listening to what you're doing. You know, so it took a second to... I don't know if to get into that. Anyway, you guys watching the World Cup? I just keep seeing scores. I saw Spain kick the shit out of somebody four to nothing.
Starting point is 00:14:33 Four nil, as they say over here. And I don't know. I want to get into it. What was cool is my... Some friends of mine got these. these books for my kids that have all the World Cup teams and you collect like the stickers and you put them in the book. And, you know, they got a whole bunch of stickers.
Starting point is 00:14:55 And Nia and one of her friends was making fun of me going like, geez, Bill, you're really into that book. Like, you're really, and it's like, well, he told me to put them all in there. And then also, yeah, if when I was a kid, this is the kind of thing that if Tops came out with one of these, I'd have to get all the stickers, memorize, all the players and all of that. So what I like about this thing is it takes me back to those days.
Starting point is 00:15:18 And then also I like all the different flags. You learn in that stuff. And also like where countries are. Makes you look up countries. You know, there's some I've never even heard of. You know, there's a lot of countries. You know, there's a lot of countries out there. And I went to public schools in the United States
Starting point is 00:15:41 and we act like we're their only fucking country. You know? We talk about a few European countries on the West Coast, and then it just becomes continents. You know, like Asia, it's like Japan, China, Asia. And the Middle East is the Middle East. They never told us it was in Asia. They just said it was the Middle East. And you had Australia, never brought up New Zealand.
Starting point is 00:16:12 You had the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Mexico, South America. Then you just had Africa. And then in Europe, there was England, France, and Spain. Because they would talk about all of these conquistadors or the Magellan or something. So you get a little bit of Italy. And that was kind of it. Never talked about Germany because we would never even work our way up to the 20th century.
Starting point is 00:16:43 And then all Germany is just fucking. World War I and World War II, you know, they ignore everything before it and all the Porsches they made after it. So I have a very limited, thank God I became a comedian because I am able to now, like, certain things, becoming a comedian, drumming, you know, if you get into drumming, eventually you're going to end up in India and Africa. you know, Africa via like Cuba, Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico and all of that, you just end up leading yourself back there. And then what happens when you get back there?
Starting point is 00:17:29 There's Ginger Baker interrupting a drum circle in Africa. That fucking guy. Somebody please explain to me. You know, I'm not saying the guy's not a legend, but like in that fucking documentary, beware of Mr. Baker. When Eric Clapton, when they compare John Bonham to Ginger Baker, he literally goes like, oh, no, no, he's not even in the same fuck.
Starting point is 00:18:07 It's like, what? Like, is this some math shit? Is this because he's playing like a polyrhythm? I mean, isn't it at the end of the day your ability, as a drummer, to connect with the audience, build the foundation for the rest of the band and get people moving.
Starting point is 00:18:36 I just tell you this, all I know is if I show that Royal Albert Hall, John Bonham drumming in that, if I show that to anybody, drummer or not, their jaws on the fucking ground. And I got to listen to more, I got to listen to more gingerbread.
Starting point is 00:18:57 I want to figure it out. I didn't, when they did the reunion tour and he took a solo, I heard that. And I was like, oh, all right. Right, yeah. That was the first time I, like, listened to him and he did something that made me pay attention. This is probably me. I don't know. But, like, I just don't, you know, in the white room with black curtains at the station, wha-beam-beam-bao-d-d-do-do-do-do-do-do do-do. This is what the fuck you're flipping out about? Do do do. Right, the beats backwards. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:39 Okay. Great. Dun, dun, dun, dun. He's clapping like white people. Fantastic. I don't know. I don't know. You know what I liked about John Bonham.
Starting point is 00:19:57 He could, like, enjoy Elvin Jones. And leave it at that. He didn't have to challenge him to, like, a fucking drum battle. so he could somehow glom off of like and put himself in the same stratosphere as elvin jones whatever that's just my fucking opinion that's my opinion um i also think that like if you're a drummer and you're publicly trashing other drummers especially dead ones you're a cunt you're an insecure fucking cunt like who does that Who the fuck?
Starting point is 00:20:42 Who would do that? And then put yourself above him. That'd be like me as a comedian just going, Oh, so-and-so couldn't tell a knock-knock joke of his fucking life depended on. Oh, he's not funny. He doesn't know it's a foxie's doing. A bunch of rubbish.
Starting point is 00:21:08 And then I go on stage with my jokes. Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do. I don't know. For me, that band, Cream, The cream was fucking Jack Bruce. That was the fucking guy. His playing and his singing, that fucking guy was on a whole other level
Starting point is 00:21:30 than the other two guys in the band. I thought he was the guy. And I thought Clapton was fucking cool as shit. And I thought Ginger Baker thought he was the guy, but he wasn't the guy. I think that, you know, that's what it should say on his tombstone. Ginger Baker, he thought he was the guy. Oh, I am going in.
Starting point is 00:21:56 I've sat on this for a long fucking time because I question my opinion. I'm probably still wrong, but like, I don't know. Maybe this will start. Somebody could explain to me his high opinion of himself and his low opinion of all these guys trashing John Bonham in Keith Moon
Starting point is 00:22:18 and they're dead. Who does that? I mean, don't us ginger cunts already have a bad enough? reputation? Did we really need him out there being the fucking stereotype? I don't know. I get Will Chamberlain vibes from that guy. You know, you know, the big knock on Will Chamberlain is like during his prime, he got traded like three times, which is usually the red flag that you're a cunt. The fact that he was in like, in his prime, he was in like,
Starting point is 00:22:54 what was it, cream, traffic and blind faith? You know, It's like, all right, all right, Ginger. Okay, you and your drums, you're okay, bye-bye. All right, Ginger, I don't, I don't think I want to do this anymore. Okay, buddy. All right, then. Yeah, you go buy some polo horses. I'm going to go over here and just fucking have a cup of tea and, you know,
Starting point is 00:23:19 decompressed from whatever the fuck that was. I thought music was supposed to be fun. I mean, that's what I heard. Are you ever going to grow out that? ponytail, we're just gonna keep it at that length. Is that what we're doing? Imagine having that opinion of you, like during the height of James Brown and his drummers,
Starting point is 00:23:44 and you're doing do-d-dood-dood do-do-do-do and fucking the James Brown drummers are doing what they're doing. Then you're walking around like your fucking ginger Jesus. Here's another thing too. I love all these people that claim they played on a Beatles album. There's some Quincy Jones story out there that he came in there and he was like, we're all, he's just like, yeah, Paul McCartney's the worst bass player ever heard. And Ringo couldn't get this drum part right. So he fucking left. And then I brought this other guy
Starting point is 00:24:24 in while Ringo was out getting a sandwich. And Ringo comes back and listens back to his track and goes, hey, this sounds pretty good. And Quincy Jones is like, yeah, that's because it's not you, motherfucker and it's just like, let me get this straight. Quincy Jones in the 1960s, 1960s, Quincy Jones when he's just building his legend, right? He walked into Apple recording studios in the middle of a recording, told Paul he was the worst bass player he'd ever heard. Ringo left and he called up a drummer, what, from around the corner? And while Ringo was out getting a cup of tea, they fucking laid down the track and that's what the fuck it was. I'm supposed to believe that's true.
Starting point is 00:25:05 Okay. Oh, and then my favorite part. He sounds exactly like Ringo. All right. Okay, maybe that happened. Maybe that happened. I think my point is when you sell a lot of albums, specifically if you sell more albums than another person,
Starting point is 00:25:29 it breeds resentment, and then they talk a bunch of shit. My business, stand-up comedy, you know? somebody starts selling a bunch of fucking tickets, right? Especially if it's a young kid, right? Good all that shit that Matt Reif got. Great guy. Met him a couple of times. What is the problem?
Starting point is 00:25:54 Ah, there's all these old comics. This fucking young guy went out. Started doing stand-up and everybody liked him and he sold him a bunch of tickets and made his dream come true. It's like, yeah, yeah, that sounds pretty awesome. I think the lesson in life is not to become Ginger Baker. You know, whatever it is that you do,
Starting point is 00:26:25 that you can be excited and happy when somebody new comes along because you understand that whatever it is that you're doing for a job does not belong to you and you're not the last one. Oh my God, you know who could fucking learn from that? of these fucking nerds in Silicon. Silicon Valley, not Silicon Bill, Silicon Valley. Yeah, all of them. Like the way that they build these apps
Starting point is 00:26:55 is so they can come in and take over an entire business and close the door behind them and then be the only store. Put everybody else out of business and then dictate the market price. And then when they do that, they start eating themselves from the inside out. We have 200 employees.
Starting point is 00:27:15 Now we have 100, and 100 have to do the job of 200 people. And I take those 100 fired people's yearly salaries as my bonus. And then you just do that, you know, I don't know. My prediction is there are going to be a lot more Luigi's in the future and that CNN and Fox are going to continue to act confused. Or what they really start doing is they start spinning it in a different way. he was an ex-football player and he had CTE
Starting point is 00:27:43 and he went into the wrong office. They start doing that shit, anything that they can do to not, you know, if it's a school shooter, oh, you know, that's the kind of thing that divides everybody. The Second Amendment people were versus the people that don't think, you know, you should have anything beyond a pistol
Starting point is 00:28:03 or maybe they want to get rid of guns altogether. They're just turning into, everybody yelling at each other. All right? But when all of a sudden, a second amender kills a fucking CEO. Then they go, well, and they start going like, oh, he was actually trying to do this,
Starting point is 00:28:19 but then he did that, so nothing to see here. And then you ask them, hey, can you stop glorifying these people and putting their faces and names out there that shoot up these fucking schools so you'll stop encouraging psychos to do this? They're like, what? Sorry, you're breaking up.
Starting point is 00:28:40 I can't hear you. I can't hear you All right, let's do the reads for the week here Oh, look who it is, everybody. It's simply safe. You know, in the U.S., there's a break-in every 26 seconds. That means somewhere right now, an intruder is getting closer. Jesus Christ.
Starting point is 00:28:59 The problem is most security systems only alert you after a break-in has already started, and that's too late. That's why I chose simply safe to secure my home using the outdoor camera series two and the advanced AI alerts simply safes U.S. based live agents identify threats on your property and help deter them.

Starting point is 00:29:19 before it starts. That's real peace of mind. You know, when I was a kid, what you had to do is leave your front door unlocked and dress like a woman and act like you were washing the dishes. And as the intruder snuck up behind you, you turned around with your wig on and your jet black beard.
Starting point is 00:29:35 And then you shot him. Bonus points if you know what movie, I'm quoting. hint it starts Sylvester Stallone SimplySafe is available with no long-term contracts and deterrence plans and Lando Calrissian was also in it

Starting point is 00:37:06 when you buy some fucking meundies, and they're perfect to cool your nuts in the summertime. When you're down at the pool. All right, meundies. You know, I was at the DMV the other day. I was. Packed, no AC. Guy next to me smelled like he'd been living inside a hockey bag since 2007.
Starting point is 00:37:24 And somehow, I'm sitting there comfortable, which honestly made no sense. Then I realized it was the meyundies. Usually halfway through one of those miserable errands, your underwear starts turning against you there. Wastband, digging in, swamp situation happening, fabric bunching up like a window curtain. Not these things.
Starting point is 00:37:46 Beyond these are ridiculously comfortable. Soft, breathable, stretchy, all the fun adjectives. They actually stay where they're supposed to stay without you constantly adjusting yourself in public. And when it's hot, and believe me, it gets hot. They keep you cool instead of turning your pants into a sauna. which as a grown man is really all I'm asking for at this point. And fellas, oh, the fellas, they got this thing called the ball caddy,
Starting point is 00:38:15 which, first of all, incredible name. It's basically a boxer brief with a built-in pouch for your precious cargo. Everything stays supported and separated, secure. It's like a push-up bra for your nuts. No bunching, no awkward adjusting. None of that nonsense. You put these things on and suddenly you're walking around with confidence, confidence of a guy who finally got his act together.
Starting point is 00:38:39 Your balls finally broke up and got out of that suffocating situation. And Beyondy says tons of styles too. Boxers, briefs, trunks, all the good stuff. Plus over 100 colors and prints if you want to get a little flashy. Personally, I'm at the point in life where I find something, if I find something comfortable, I buy like eight of them and refuse to evolve any further as a human being.

Starting point is 00:39:38 I am a big fan already. And I've never seen Rush. I never seen Rush Live. Hey Bill, I'm a lifelong Rush fan. I saw them 23 times with Neil Peirte. When I heard they were touring with a new drummer, I wasn't sure I wanted to go. I saw the final shows and had my final moments with the band,
Starting point is 00:39:58 and it was awesome. Three guys who love playing music, no drama, no bullshit, just music and a true appreciation for their fans. I mean, they really did stick together. didn't seem like there was a lot of drama between them. I know Neil had a lot of drama, like a lot of tragedy in his personal life. When tickets went on sale for this tour, I was reluctant because the final tour was really special.
Starting point is 00:40:25 I ended up going anyway, and I'm glad I did. The new drummer is great. I'd also like to point out, while Rush's main demo was aging, balding white men, none of them had a problem with a lady drummer. Well, I think that that speaks to the guys in rush, you know, and the kind of music they made and the vibe that they put out that they attracted those kinds of open-minded people
Starting point is 00:40:50 in their crowd. Plus, I also think at this point, I don't think a woman drumming. I mean, personally, for me, thinking that women couldn't drum, I mean, I saw Karen Carpenter when I was a kid, and then I saw Sheila E. So I was like, you know,
Starting point is 00:41:11 I was like, I think they can because I can't fucking do that. Tens of thousands of men who look just like you, all embracing her talents. These are the balding white men. Something to remember for everyone living and dying by stereotypes.
Starting point is 00:41:26 The show was amazing. They honored Neil and Getty and Alex sounded as good as ever. Check it out if you can. Thanks for the podcast. I would go, you know what? I would go to that. I would bring my daughter to that
Starting point is 00:41:38 for her to see their new drummer up there. I wish she said her name. But I like her feel. You know? Neil was sort of, I felt like, right on the beat which really made it really worked with the band.
Starting point is 00:41:57 Like, I feel like that kind of drumming works with everything from like Rush to like the cult or something like that. You know, that really on the beat and then other shit, if you're pushing it or if you're a little laid back. And I don't know, I haven't watched a bunch of stuff, but whatever this woman is doing,
Starting point is 00:42:15 I feel like she's breathing new life into those parts. And I don't, it reminds me of when I saw, last time I saw Primus, and they had a new drummer. There's like, you know, it's just breathed new life, a new feel into it. You know, like in both instances, you're seeing two people get like their dream gig. So just their excitement just brings something new.
Starting point is 00:42:47 I mean, I, you know, they both have to be thinking. I can't believe I'm playing Neil Peirts part or Tim Alexander's stuff. I don't know. I think it can definitely be a new thing. But it never sounds the same, though. And I always think that that's like, testament of whether somebody's like a great drummer or not,
Starting point is 00:43:16 is if you leave the band and the band does not sound the same. I've said this before. I always felt that like, you know, I always loved Tom Petty and the heartbreakers throughout the whole thing, but once Stan Lynch left, they never sounded the same. I'm not saying they sounded worse. They just didn't sound like the same band.
Starting point is 00:43:37 Stephen Adler, not being in Guns and Roses, It's the same thing. I think, I don't know. For me, that's like the coolest thing, the highest level of a compliment for a drummer. That even like non-drummers notice that it doesn't sound the same. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:44:00 It's just a testament to how unique your feel was or how much it worked in the band. All right, I'm done talking all this nerd drum shit. But if I have a chance to see Rush with their new drummer, I will definitely do it. All right. Where are we here? Let's go. Brutal bungee in Brazil. Bill, I'm going to believe there's no reason to jump off a building or out of a plane.
Starting point is 00:44:27 If you're in love with the activity, that's one thing. Maybe you become a professional and you care about all the details want to dive headfirst into it. No pun intended. But people will just do shit like that on vacation. But people who will do that. shit like that on vacations are morons in this case i feel bad a 21 year old girl you know you're gonna call her a moron how about the people that like how about the people that were running that that bungee cord experience not having like some fail-safe checks and balanced pre-flight something or rather a 21-year-old girl
Starting point is 00:45:09 was lifted by two guys working the bungee jump into the airplane position and thrown off a bridge. The problem is they forgot to tie her in. She died. Oh, my God. There were six total workers, all wearing blue shirts and clearly identifiable in the video.
Starting point is 00:45:27 Two of them tried to flee when they realized what happened. It's a great defense for the people who get made fun for doing vacations like a sandals resort. Thanks and go fuck yourself. Yeah. I just, there's not
Starting point is 00:45:45 funny about that story. I mean, that was somebody's daughter. And then, you know, those people that did it, they have to live with that for the rest of their fucking lives. Oh, my God. And that's like the ultimate, like jumping out of the plane, you forgot to put on your parachute. I would think anybody that skydives on a regular basis
Starting point is 00:46:07 has that nightmare, you know? Yeah, I will tell you, I, you know, that's like, dying on vacation is a very easy thing to do when you do these fucking things like those do you ever see those things like they drag you behind a boat and you have like a parachute on and then you're way
Starting point is 00:46:36 up in the fucking air you know they make sure you're just high enough to die that if you hit the water it's now going to be like cement I don't know Maybe because you're near the beach, it's sort of churning so it's moving. There's something about these high dive people that they throw a rock in first that, you know,
Starting point is 00:47:03 gets the water churning so it's not just hitting like a flat piece of fucking concrete. I don't know. Like, here's, I'll give you a quick list of shit that I would never do. Bungy jump. Parasail, hang glide. African safari in an open fucking vehicle
Starting point is 00:47:31 if I can't put the window up fuck that I'm not going I'm not going and these fucking lions and cheetahs and leopards are starting to understand that the car is the car
Starting point is 00:47:43 and the person is the person where before they kind of looked at it all as like one big fucking thing I don't know I wouldn't do that whitewater rafting. Any of that shit where it's just like, you know,
Starting point is 00:48:02 hey, we're gonna do some shit that you usually see in the beginning of a James Bond movie. I'm not doing that. Because it's A, dangerous, and B, it's their moneymaker. So their job is to throw as many people off the fucking bridge,
Starting point is 00:48:21 get as many people up in the air as humanly possible, and they are just, whatever gear they have, have is just being used over and over and over and over again. And I would love to know on those bungee things, if there's any, from country to country, I would think that regulations are different. I would imagine in some countries there's a finite amount of times you can use it. And then in other countries, it's at your discretion. You just sort of look to see if it's frayed or
Starting point is 00:48:53 anything. But my condolence to that girl that died and her parents and all of her friends that is just fucking horrific. When I go on vacation, I like to just find a cafe and I like to just sit and just watch people go by and get into the vibe or like, you know, do what I did yesterday going like a road trip. But, you know, I would rent a motorcycle. and ride through a countryside
Starting point is 00:49:29 or I've always wanted to ride one of those through Paris or something. But what I like about that is I'm depending on myself. You know? It's not like just some fucking carnival ride that's going 24-7 and they're burning out the fucking engine or some shit. I don't know. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:49:52 Anyway, guy faces jail for cleaning river. What? Billy 3-4. Check out this article about a guy who is being threatened with jail time for cleaning up a river without permission.
Starting point is 00:50:09 Paul Paulusland, a lawyer and environmental campaigner organized the team of volunteers to tackle the removal of litter, weed, and silt from a section of the river rotting after repeatedly asking the agency
Starting point is 00:50:25 to act. The team of volunteers from the river rotting trust removed 200 bags of rubbish branches and silt over 10 days from Alders Brook, a tributary of the river that runs through rural Essex and barking earlier this year. But the EA has sent Prowsland a letter saying he's being investigated for illegally intervening without a permit. We consider that unpermitted works have taken place. This is the quote from the cunts. In contravention of the environmental permitting, sorry, England and Wales. Regulations 2016 read the letter seen by the Guardian. It added, the site is currently under investigation for permitting and waste offenses. The EA alleges dredging has been carried out and waste has been on site within the four.
Starting point is 00:51:25 floodplain constituting a flood risk activating activity under the regulations that would have required an environmental permit carrying out the work without one is an offense it states so they're saying that it would what when they put the trash bags on the side of the river it could have caused the water to back up and I don't understand how that's a flood dredging has been carried out and waste has been left on the site within the flood plain oh if there's some sort of flood and it goes up the banks. They left the trash bags there. The agency said it would carry out additional investigation to see if further relevant information came to light, including whether Pouselan Land and volunteers had committed other offenses
Starting point is 00:52:14 and the environmental impact of the offenses. Pouselan Land, who lives on a boat on rotting, said he asked the EA to clean up the riverals several times over many years, but it had not acted. After decades of ignoring rampant environmental crime on the rotting, the Environmental Agency has finally decided to act, he said. But it's not action against Thomas Water, no, Tames Water, for dumping billions of liters of sewage in the rotting, or the waste criminals who have dumped thousands of tons of rubbish on its bank, but against a river-rotting trust for restoring a river without a permit.
Starting point is 00:52:54 This world is so fucked up. Yeah, because I can guarantee you that, let's see, Tames water pays off all the politicians. That's why they never get in trouble. Then if you go in and you try to do something about it, that happens in like the states. These guys will fucking come over and they do a yard cleanup. And the cops come in and tell them to stop it.
Starting point is 00:53:21 And they're going, we're doing it for free. And they say you can't do it. because when a lawn gets overrun like that, what they want to do is just start giving the old person all of these fines, so then they have to leave the house, and then they kick the property back into play for the banks. So you know it's coming from the banks. That's their way of getting old people out of their houses
Starting point is 00:53:42 and they don't have to wait for them to die. Bankers, there's some other people. There's some other people that probably had the nerve to act surprised about a Luigi guy. All right, microplastic thoughts. Aye, Bill. Want to get hella mad at something new? Also, this email is kind of long and has some science terms,
Starting point is 00:54:07 and I know you're dyslexic as fuck. So this is going to be a rough ride for everyone, but might be worth it. All right. I mean, I'm not going to argue with that. Heard the pod where you mentioned microplastics and how they put them in everything now. There's a good new conspiracy I found going down some rabbit holes,
Starting point is 00:54:24 that's not too reported on. So microplastics have something called xenoestrogens, which are basically substances that mimic estrogen. So the microplastics have xenoestrogens, which are basically substances that mimic estrogens. And when microplastics reach the brain, it disrupts a protein called pro-granulin, which has estrogen receptors.
Starting point is 00:54:48 The pro-granuline protein is directly responsible for brain inflammation. And this brain inflammation is probably what's, causing most of us to be mad at each other other than the usual. So microplastics are basically designed to fuck with the same protein that makes us mad at each other as well as others. I think it's just a happy accident. It's just plastics were cheaper than natural raw materials, so they went with that,
Starting point is 00:55:13 and when they found out the side effects of it, they just don't give a fuck. Phrases, yeah, I know. No one likes science stuff, but it gets more interesting, is what they say. Okay. deeper down the rabbit hole, the protein pro-granuline is the exact same protein literally all parasitic organisms target to take control of a host. All parasites have an altered version of that protein that they use against their other organisms.
Starting point is 00:55:38 So microplastics, which are just put in everything now, seem to, seem designed to mimic the same mechanism a parasite uses, which is kind of bullshit if you ask me. So yeah, just thought it'd be funny if you were the one to shed. light on it and at least it's more of an interesting conspiracy than the other ones we have now. I mean, they're all pretty fucking interesting at this point. Yeah, I'm sure all of that is true, but I also, the people that profit off of plastics and everything are, they have to drink the same water we do. I don't think they have their own, you know, Illuminati River and water, but who knows, maybe they do. I just think if they were going to kill all of us, they would do it on a much quicker
Starting point is 00:56:25 fashion. They would want to do it in their lifetime. They wouldn't want to like, like, I just don't think that they give a fuck about anything. They don't give a fuck about the planet. They only look at things one way. They're like junkies. And I hope someday in the future that these robber barons, people are going to look at them the same way they look at somebody like addicted to heroin, that they're like this junkie, except they don't use drugs. Theirs is like money and power. and they just
Starting point is 00:56:56 they can't say no and they'll do anything the same way a junkie will go rob money from his mother these fucking people will pollute rivers they'll cause wars they'll increase cancer in children they don't give a fuck
Starting point is 00:57:11 as long as the next quarter they're making more money they're truly sick people and they should be getting the death penalty for what they're doing to people making them sick giving them cancer. And it shouldn't be a quick death.
Starting point is 00:57:27 It should be a long, agonizing death like cancer. You know? It is what it is. All I know is if I put poison in the water or if I poisoned the food supply as an individual, yeah, that would be a wrap. That would be sitting on death row right now. These fucking guys instead are sitting in mansions
Starting point is 00:57:47 on the way to their yachts. Oh, Jesus, Bill, the hypocrisy. Anyway, I'm going to go try to get some coffee in a real cup so I don't inflame my brain. Thank you guys for listening to the podcast. I hope you're going to enjoy your summer. Oh, by the way, I didn't even talk about that fire out there in L.A. My God.
Starting point is 00:58:16 L.A. All of you fucking assholes who talk about how plastic L.A. is and all of that. You wouldn't fucking last out there. The level of tough you have to be and a little bit crazy to fucking live in L.A. You know? This is another thing, too, that I loved about that New York Next Championship, when they were talking about when they had the parade,
Starting point is 00:58:41 and they were going like, everybody was nice to each other. They were saying hello, people were helping each other out. That is in a nutshell, too, why it's great to live in New York, but eventually you have to fucking leave. Because you only get one life and there's no reason to put yourself through that. You just sort of institutionalize
Starting point is 00:59:10 and you're believing this thing that this is the greatest place in the world and there's no other place exists. There's no place better, which is insane. And New Yorkers are so fucking brainwashed if you bring that logic up to them, that you can live somewhere that has fresh air and people are nice to each other
Starting point is 00:59:34 and is affordable to live. And you don't have to be like a zillion miles away and there's nothing to do. You can still be close by. They just go, yeah, see, you don't get it. You don't get it. Like somehow you don't get it. It's like, dude, I've lived both places.
Starting point is 00:59:50 I've not lived in New York and I've lived in New York. I get why it's awesome, but I also get why you should leave at some point. Don't want to lose your edge. You know, don't want to lose that anger. Yeah, you do. You want to spend your whole life being fucking miserable? Smelling human feces?
Starting point is 01:00:12 Yeah, you don't get it. Yeah, I guess I don't. I guess I don't. All right, that's it, everybody. That is the podcast. And shout out to all the firefighters that are fighting that fire. And I hope the fucking steak gives them the right
Starting point is 01:00:25 respiratory, whatever they need, you know, that they didn't give the firefighters on 9-11. I hope they're doing the right thing this time. All right, that's it. Sorry to end on a sad note there. All right, that's it. Go fuck yourselves. I'll check in on you on Thursday.
