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.
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.
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.
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?
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?
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
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
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
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.
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
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
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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.
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
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
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.
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
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,
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?
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.
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.
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
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
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.
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.
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
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?
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.
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,
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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?
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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?
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.
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
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.
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
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,
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,
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,
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
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.
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,
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?
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,
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
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.
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
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
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,
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.
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.
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

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.
And then you shot him.

All right, look who it is, everybody.
It's meundies.
Meundies, meundies, no more sweaty balls.
Meundies, meundies, wear them out in a stall.
Jump out there and shake your nuts.
Your balls are cool, you don't give a fuck.
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.
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.
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,
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.
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.

all right oh look we're talking more drums oh we're talking more drums
uh rushes new drummer uh uh uh
I've seen some clips.
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,
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.
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
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,
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.
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
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.
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,
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.
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,
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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
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
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
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,
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
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
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,
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,
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
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
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.
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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.
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
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,
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,
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.
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,
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.
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
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
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
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.
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
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.
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,
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
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
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.
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?
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
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.
