Painkiller Already - PKN 455

Episode Date: May 9, 2023

pkn 455 kyle's excited to talk about baseball and terrorism what do we got going on oh it's the american pastime it's the american pastime it seems yeah yeah uh by terrorism do you mean the domestic stuff in like texas yeah yeah baseball like 20 people died in texas over the week uh a couple shootings and then that car uh crash I don't think you maybe are filled in on that because you didn't understand. So what happened outside of this sort of homeless migrant facility, I guess maybe it's where homeless

illegals congregate outside of the bus stop. This guy intentionally hit them with his car. And I've seen the video of it and it's almost like he hit a hot wheels ramp before he made contact with him because his car is on like the left two wheels and flying through the air and it hits them solidly like the full group of a dozen people

and it immediately kills six or seven of them and the worst part was one person's leg is completely taken off on impact. And it creates this geyser of blood, this huge like flare of blood that you see that catches the light of the sun. And you see, and it's not super high quality video, but you do see this giant geyser of blood in the middle of it. And then of course, I then of course i don't i don't know what happened with the first shooting in texas but the second one was the one where that

that nazi shot that korean family and killed everyone but the baby before you move on to the other stuff what how did he get air like did he he jumped into an area or he just like barreled through uh you've seen you know writer all right i guess it was like let's do some justice it looks like again i only had a gift to work with on that one and i wasn't really looking for more gore so i didn't check too much into it but he didn't launch off something he was just careening so wildly that he was like losing control it could have been that or the top of a hill or something but he definitely intentionally hit all those people well then like it now he's in a ruined car at a migrant detention center and he just killed he survived well they drag his ass, and all you hear is them calling him a perro while they kick the shit out of him.

And they is like eight villages worth of migrants. Eight villages? Eight villages worth. Like the whole fucking Guadalajara Basin has turned out to whoop homeboy's ass, and they are just in a circle around him kicking his ass. And occasionally he'll get up and sort of scuffle away, but that don't last long uh i don't know if they beat him to death but it looked like it was heading that way that's the video that woody was reacting to he's like why did they beat him or whatever that's why because he was a terrorist basically who killed a bunch of their comrades the next one you were going into i did see a photo is that picture of that like his like very hispanic like honduran guy with like ss and

swastika on him is that real with the texas shirt and uh he's got he's got three tattoos he's got the the the lightning bolts he's got a full-on swastika and he's got like i love texas and it looks like it belongs on the side of a barbecue joint he has so hispanic it's jarring he has a proud boys patch on proud boys sells these patches you know like the morale patches that say right wing death squad w r w d s on it so he's i'm not saying he's in the proud boys but he's at least a proud boys fan boy who bought their patch and wore it. I mean, honestly, it doesn't really seem like the Proud Boys are the thing to latch on here, given the SS and the swastika thing tattooed, right? Like he's an actual Latino white supremacist.

Well, Latino Nazi. They're calling him a white supremacist. There's a whole like I've been watching podcasts about whether hispanics can be white supremacists and it's my understanding that you have to understand texas there are people that look latino in texas whose families have been there longer than texans have who kind of identify as white even though they look pretty mexican and this whole like whether you're latino or white gets confusing in texas i've heard this is new to me too so perhaps they're really identifying as americans americans and so these you could imagine a scenario where people like that would really

not like people who did it the other way people who were from another country and were giving them a bad name imagine if your family had been here longer than the whites and you were as much of a tech year. You were here when Texas was a fucking country. Your people were, but you get treated badly because people who look like you've come across the border and acted poorly or because, you know,

people are racist. However, you know, I don't know. How are you going to look at it? That's, that is funny. Well,

you wouldn't put a white power tattoo on though. And a swastika, you wouldn't go that direction is all I'm saying. That's whatever it is. That's the, the clan that he lined up with. Yeah. It's like,

what do you think motivated him? It's like, usually swastika tattoos are pretty fucking indicative. People don't like get drunk with friends and like, ha ha ha. Let's get a tattoo. Like, yeah.

Right. No, you're when you get a swastika tattoo you're all in baby you're both feet in the pool you're in the deep even worse than that is the you know nationalist whatever that that's what he's about who were his victims did he were they random killings did he uh so so he was targeting the the mall he had scouted it out before he had pictures he had uploaded photos of it he'd uploaded photos of his gear and stuff his gun and mag carrier and stuff uh for whatever

reason whether he just he was like oh korean's my favorite he killed that whole korean family a father the mother and two or three small children there was one tiny child that survived maybe three years old or something are we talking about this depressing stuff and just uh i actually saw a picture of them you know you know i was telling zach for the show you know reddit is i'm clicking the everything that says not safe for work and usually the worst thing you see is a chinaman careening into some high-powered lines or something which i always i'm looking for boobs actually titties hopefully yeah i'm hoping for tits. I'm hoping for better than that. Let's be I want penetration.

Yeah, yeah. It's not safe to work. The goal is nudity. Not gore. We also not safe for work one. And it's like a dead animal. You're like silly with nudity. Like silly nudity is fun. Like a dude like having his his shorts blown off with an air like someone takes an air gun at a tool shop

and like blows your whole wardrobe off and you're naked now like that shit's funny that's not safe i'll still giggle if i click on not safe for work and someone's using a ladder incorrectly i'm like god i see what you did there and he's naked he's holding that all wrong right right like oh he what he stacked a ladder on top of another ladder you can't do that this isn't safe uh instead it was that family dead uh all in a heap together uh where they were murdered uh so that was pretty fucking gruesome and then i also saw the gif of the aftermath of the shooter being dead i think that the cops shot him but i'm not sure but the person filming it was let's just say inside of a subway and the guy's dead right

outside the subway on the floor uh but like the little sidewalk of a mall and he's just like oh shit homie was stacked he got the ak and everything he got the rpgs this guy's like i don't know what he's talking about the guy's had a ride that's a yeah grenade no okay this guy's just blown away he had a he had a um all i could tell was he had like a standard ar with iron sights and he did have a bunch of mags on a mag like do you mean ar-15 m4 thingy yeah yeah like like like very like old school though you know with the iron sights like the carry handle and everything. It looked like he was ready to go into NOM. That's what they need to outlaw. ARs without scopes.

You never see guys with solid, high-end ARs doing damage. It's always the cheap ones. True. It's like, you know what? If you want to get an AR, you need to buy a red dot for that thing at least. No, no, no. It seems pretty true. You know, your question, you mentioned all those mags on someone's chest. Kyle, you would know this.

When you were around gun guys, like obviously you saw lots of people with those clips on. Was there a number of clips a guy would wear around where like you would instinctively be like poser? Like, what are you doing? Like you're like you're already obese and you got 17 mags stra, poser, what are you doing? You're already obese and you've got 17 mags strapped to you, or do you not pay attention at all? So it really depends on what we're talking about. If we're talking about... I would go to gun shows sometimes.

Or not gun shows, but shoots. I would get invited to come to the gun shoot for whatever reason, and they would get me to come. And people kind of walk around those wearing guns decoratively and sometimes they're walking around uh with guns for sale it's very common that you'll have a long gun a rifle or a shotgun and you'll stick an american flag a tiny one in the barrel and then you'll have it slung over your shoulder walking around and that's to catch people's eyes sometimes you'll have laminated inside uh attached like $1,000

Browning blah blah blah blah blah and you know it's details and you're just looking for anybody to go hey would you take 750 cash yeah I would and you literally swap right there and you're all done because it's a person-to-person so if you see somebody like I remember I saw a lady with two um fn tactical 45 acp pistols both of them had red dots and uh she had them slung laura croft style kind of in the back like like that and i do that and left her dead when you load that pistol up with all the bullets that it'll hold it holds like maybe 15 or 16 in the mag. It's been a while.

And then one in the pipe. It's heavy. This is a big man's gun. And she's got two of them. It's like dragging her belt off her ass. It's like, lady, it would take me so little effort to want it behind you, pull your pants off, and just beat you to death while your guns rattled around your ankles.

And about your guns, running away with them. That'd be not safe for work no actually really not safe there but if i saw somebody with mags on like who wasn't about to shoot in a competition that would be stupid as fuck like i've never seen that i've never seen somebody who's just wearing uh maybe some pistol mag on their belt like if they're doing that pistol thing they'll have a full kydex thing with a couple mags on one side and they're tricked out glock on the other that would be pretty common thing you would see and oftentimes those guys were about to go shoot you know yeah i'm thinking of a very specific overweight obese man i saw at a range who like had you know the way the ogres run in warhammer where they kind of have to lean back like that was that was his shooting style and he had like seen that because of his immense girth

he had like five different magazines strapped and i remember even at the time thinking like like this like we're standing still there's a desk in front of us there's no purpose for this this guy's just like larping i guess. And it's just like a paper target, take your time kind of range too. He's not advancing on targets and doing mag drills. It's like, dude, you're two booths down from me and I'm in a t-shirt and shorts like where everyone else is. Yeah, that guy's cosplaying.

He's just having a bit of fun. And look, there's nothing wrong with that until you step out and until you walk into Walmart, you know? There's nothing wrong with it. Or the other thing is I see those same guys actually think between their ears that this is their truth, that they are soldiers. mart you know there's nothing wrong with or the other thing is i see those same guys actually think between their ears that this is their truth that they are soldiers like like oh when shit goes down fucking gravy seals over here is gonna be the badass who owns this situation he's gonna be a

warlord because you know he invested twenty five hundred dollars into being the biggest baddest toughest guy around and it's like get the fuck out of here you can't run to the end of my driveway you think you're a soldier or his like no no i don't understand that sort of stuff i really don't mind armed people being around me and in restaurants and stores when i see someone who's packing heat uh i to be honest i size them up and kind of decide right then and there if i'm someone who's packing heat uh i to be honest i size them up and kind of decide right then and there if i'm glad they have the gun or not sometimes i am sometimes i'm not you know and it's not it's it's probably it's about whether i think that they're squared away um at least a little like i don't care if you're wearing flip-flops like like you got a

haircut though man like you got oh interesting i don't care if you're wearing shorts you got a belt on like i don't know. I'm looking for some stuff to say that he means business, I guess. You don't want to see a gun loosely floating in an Adidas short. When I see someone open carry around here, which is pretty rare in my part of North Carolina, they look like they carry it all the time. That holster is worn. That gun has come in and out of that thing a zillion times.

I'm just like, oh, this is like keys to him. Yeah. It's fine. It's kind of like the farmer style guys that my grandpa knows who carry, I've noticed, will carry a full size handgun in a way that like, if you saw some guy walking around, like an herb, like not like a suburban area, you'd be like, you fucking goober.

But like these guys, it's like, yeah, I can tell by the size of that man's hand that he's been working regularly every day since the twenties. Like, I don't know if that man, I don't know if that man's like,

dude, if you, if you know, if you know farmers and you know that kind of class of farmer, hardworking people, their hands are huge. They have gigantic hands. Their fingers are... My grandpa's hands

are fucking enormous. If his life depended on it, he could not get his finger inside the trigger guard. He's got those King Charles fingers. He's got the rest of the king... He doesn't have the King Charles hand. Except he's got the rest of the King. He doesn't have the King Charles hand, the little gremlin thing where it's like,

take my good hand. Like, no, he's got big farmer's hands. Like, some of these guys need the big guns. But you were talking, it made me think of the equipment, like nice equipment in a hobby that spots someone as a mark. And it made me think of, so when you're a young guy

playing hockey you may think that what you'd want is a face shield like which is glass that you look through instead of the bars that you look through but what you don't know is that everybody who wore those face shields had a reputation of being a pussy. And it was just like a thing. And so when someone showed up to the 13-year-old game and someone on the other team had one of those face shields, everybody's making fun of them. Everybody's goofing on them. And they're targeting to hit that guy a little harder. Everybody's trying to take Cyclops out.

The same way I remember specifically. Would it be like a mirror thing? No, they didn't wear mirror just straight i remember once i was in a i was in a goalie tryout and i was like briefly a little intimidated by this other goalie in the tryout who had like fucking creme de la creme equipment pristine beautiful i was so fucking jealous i was like god my pads are so fucking ugly compared to that guy's pads. My setup isn't as cool as his. It's a goalie thing. It's totally a goalie thing. I was like, his stick is nicer than mine. His stick matches his pads and mine doesn't. I would get out there and very quickly I realized like, oh, my pads are filthy and covered in puck marks because I'm a good goalie this guy sucks like this guy's pads

were pristine at the end of the tryout too like he was terrible like are there any things you think of that like how you got into that just tag someone as i want to double down on the hockey thing so i played beer league hockey which is not a high level and beer league hockey in north carolina elite so yeah right that's where gretzky was from maybe anyway uh when new guys would join the team if they're like 30 years old and their equipment is shitty it's like dark green and it's got holes in the shorts and stuff it it's like whoa whoa what college did he get that from like this is from when he played division one for some school or whatever. Now this guy's the boss.

And then another guy comes in and all his shit is shiny and new. I'm like, he's a new player or at the very least a guy who hasn't played in 10 years and needed new gear. It's never, or he plays all the time. Exactly. Never,

ever does he play all the time and just, you could, as a goalie i could tell often who would be the best shooters to look out for because you could see on the inside of a hockey glove how worn it is and some players it would be so worn that there were a couple little tendrils of fabric and the rest was just their palm and they would be using these glass these gloves with just like their palm gripping mostly and they would get used to shooting that way and it'd be more accurate and so when i saw some goober with like fresh new gloves i was way less scared of that guy's shot

than this one guy i played with dan used it was tremendous at hockey and was would not upgrade his gloves his hands were too big for me just wouldn't upgrade them because he loved the way it felt like on that stick shooting at that angle and so like yeah what he's right like you see that worn out stuff and you're like okay this guy this guy knows what he's doing you see a guy with like skate fenders on and you're like this guy's a bitch like i saw the first time i saw somebody with a full face helmet in baseball i didn't i thought i was like oh what's wrong with him like like what's wrong with that kid broken jaw like like yeah i thought he was in it like injured or like he didn't have his whole skull or something because the idea going out there with that thing on the front of everybody was i had in my hair acceptable

it's like are you kidding me like what are you afraid to hit you with the ball like just move in my coral reef tank i have the opposite of that going on if you would look at my tank right now you'd see a lot of corals i have as many corals as people with big tanks do i probably as many corals as i need but they're all like one inch long because that's the size that you buy them that is the mark of a noob you know the corals that i have right now you need to grow them out i watch these youtube channels and this guy has a coral that kyle you couldn't hug it it's so big. In his fish tank in his house. Yeah, this is a big boss guy.

And he's like, yeah, you know, I got this when I was diving in Australia in 1984. It was this big. And I've grown it ever since then. It's become the Julian Springer or something. His name's Julian Sprung. And they're sold. They're in thousands of fish tanks everywhere because

he breaks off pieces and gives them to someone else. Fuck that. I'd go out to Australia and get a dump truck. I'm going to take that. What are you starting so small for? You got to do this the American way. We dig deep. I'm impressed when some guy, like when his tank has,

I'll make up a number, like 18 giant corals. If you have little seedlings all over the place, like I currently do, you suck. How many years is it? Class lives there. I can send him out there tomorrow with a hammer. At the minimum,

Taylor, it probably takes like 18 months for stuff to grow out nicely. But the thing is, it's 18 months without a mistake, right? Like a lot of people have four year old tanks that look like they're one-year-old tanks because it's like it's been this long since our last workplace accident oh seems hard it's and frustrating if it doesn't grow because you're like just mad at it a little bit

and a reef tank i don't think it's a time. My tank is kicking ass. Everything is growing. You can see the size it was when we bought it and the new growth on it since then. I've got stuff going on the back wall. It's just like every night I look at it visibly growing. I'm doing my best. I watched this whole video about the development of the F-15 jet. Okay. So what happened was they got the plans for this Russian plane, the MiG-25. I think it was.

Maybe the 29. It doesn't matter. The point was that they thought that this was going to be the Russian, the Soviet's air superiority fighter based on the limited bits of data they had on it because they knew it was incredibly fast and

a crazy high climb rate and it was br fast and it had a like a crazy high climb rate and it was bristling with weapons and they're like oh my god we have nothing even close um so they start the f-15 program and they try to you know blow all these numbers out of the way with their air superiority fighter and they do they make the greatest fighter in the world and then um this soviet pilot defects lands his fancy new mig in japan and they get a look at this thing it's made out of nickel alloy steel it's so big because most of it is fuel because it's so fuel inefficient despite carrying like twice the fuel the f-15 it's got like a quarter of the range or something all it does well is an interceptor so they they

would say oh no american bombers and this thing was supposed to be able to rocket up super fast to where they were and shoot them real quick but it was like but they the americans we built the f-15 to be this do everything amazingly well plane they still fly them they still fly f-15s they're still some of the best planes in the world. They just keep upfitting the avionics and stuff, the computers. That's not even our best anymore, right? F-18 is better, right? That's a plane from 1972.

Holy shit. F-35. So that ties into something I was watching yesterday. The Russians shot hypersonic missiles at Ukraine. And they shot it, I think in Kiev, it doesn't matter exactly where. And then they have American Patriot systems, and we shot down the hypersonic missiles. Now, the thing is, hypersonic missiles can't be shot down. Here's the deal. Russians, as per typical, exaggerate the capabilities of their weaponry americans as per typical lie and under as they tell everyone their shit is like mediocre when it's actually really good and the gap has made our patriot missiles shoot down their hypersonic missiles because patriots

do more than we say they do and hypersonics do less than they say they do. Yeah, we've been matching propaganda for 50 years. The Russians will be like, We have a plan that goes five times... Why am I using that accent? I'm a German transplant here. I'm a recently moved here. Yes, you know me. My name is Hans.

He's a classic Russian. Why did I go to Germany? Believe me, as I use this strudel, yes you know me my name is hans is a classic russian no they claim they've got a plane that can do five do this number in the americans like oh my god you do we better get to work doing one making one that can do better than your dreamt up number and and it seems like we did i i feel like in a world without the cold war in a world without the soviets there to lie to us and tell us they were good at stuff uh who knows where we would be i think my theory is the underlying like cause behind that is the military industrial complex and it's like insanity in the budget like oh i hear they shoot lasers at us well shit we better get on laser technology and this and that and the other thing. So now because of this boogeyman, we can work more, hire more engineers, who knows what.

Yeah, they build missile defense programs for missiles that don't exist. Because, hey, because if we have a defense program for something that doesn't exist yet, now they can't make it. That's true. That checks out. It's just not a good idea. It's just not a good idea. It's a constant leapfrog. They have to go even better. They have to lie even harder

to keep us in debt and ruining our country. All it takes is one real lie. I've got unconfirmed reports that Wings of Redemption is in London. What? Yeah. Nice. Good for him.

It's happening? Maybe? Good for him, man. If he's there, if he's doing this, good for Wings. Keem says he got on the jet plane. He says he's on the plane now. He sent that a little while ago. Oh, it tweet yeah at 5 p.m so supposedly yeah he's in the air right now um i was gonna say he's still in the air but since i don't know when he departed i don't know what

he'll land yeah he left at five it's like a six hour flight at least right well the tweet was at five and i agree with the six hours part i just don't know what town is this i mean he's in london is that his photos yeah wow then he's so that was like the part of it kyle most it is i guess it's happening now all right so now the biggest hurdles are cowardice and a ringside doctor checking his heart rate and blood pressure because i don't know i'm just saying like these are imaginary hurdles these are the things that uh if someone got nixed for that it would be boogie not him i don't think yeah boogie is much less healthy i'm just saying though it's just still still wild to me that somehow these these human beings are in are in london okay yeah that's the

biggest hurdle i didn't think that was going to happen i really didn't yeah you gotta be careful there's a major fault line there you know i was just i have these fat jokes about air cargo and i just kept them all on myself and then it's the fault line i want to get him to stonehenge i want to get him up there like like going like oh, oh no, and his wife pointing to the fallen over pillars when he's knocked him over. Stonehenge. That shit is not as impressive as they try and make it. All right, first, look.

Stonehenge. Get real. I hate that take. I hate that take so much. Yeah, come on. That's our ancestors. That's our people. I don't know.

I think it's kind of lazy. Where is Stonehenge? It's somewhere in England, like the northern part. What is it for? What was it originally for? Is anyone else British here? I think it's just... We're all mixed. We got British in there.

They don't know exactly, but they think it was both like a calendar and a worship sort of ritual site for the Druids, right? It could be. In all seriousness, it is pretty cool. Yeah. It was cooler than that shitty Georgia one

that fell down. That was like a terrorist. That got knocked down. Yeah. They blew it up with explosives at night. Genuinely, there was no excuse for that structure to be that ugly. Stonehenge, it's old.

That was made... They had machines. They had ways to make it look infinitely better than that. Taylor, I'm pretty sure people from Georgia made it, though. We did. We absolutely did. That's your excuse. This is just Georgians, Taylor. I believe more in them than they believe in themselves, apparently.

I don't know how you they believe in themselves, apparently. I don't know how you're pairing. Dog shit, marble bullshit. Look at this. It has instructions on how to... Fuck you. It sucks. And it was ugly. And they should do it again and make it nice.

I haven't won a World Series in like 30 years. This is not an impressive state. Yeah, they really need a World Series. I'm jumping on the Braves this year. Let's go Braves. First of all, baseball's brave no first of all baseball's better all right baseball's better let me go over a couple of the rule changes that i as an admitted baseball novice um have picked up the bases are close to get closer together woody

i don't believe you they move the bases closer together i don't believe that for a minute let me go through you you try to find the lie all right they made the bases they made the bases fucking bigger so now they're closer together. They limited the pick-off attempts that a pitcher can do to three. You get three. Three per what time period?

For each guy. For each man. For each batter. If you're on first, Woody, and I'm the pitcher, I got three attempts to pick you off over there. After that, I can't do it anymore because every time I'm doing that, I'm resetting the pitch counter and time is being called. Do pitchers ever

try to get people at bases other than first? Yes. It's usually a situation where they do a pitch out maybe if they think somebody's leading too much where they'll have the catcher just jump out, be ready to catch it standing, and he'll throw them out if they think somebody's leading too much where they'll have the catcher to jump out be ready to catch it standing and and he'll throw them out if they think somebody's really leading or they'll get somebody in a situation at third where they they

can uh you know get them in a pinch i have a related dumb question so i imagine it being a little tougher to say throw it a second than first because it's behind you as a pitcher does that mean that a runner on second tends to take a larger lead yeah okay yeah you'll see those guys get big leads. Because also the second baseman has to cover. That's another thing they did. They eliminated the shift.

The shift is when you're moving players around the infield. I think they made it so that all the infielders have to stay in the infield. That wasn't a rule before. You'd have guys in the outfield. You'd have four outfielders in right to deal with a left-handed pull hitter. You'd have to stay in the infield. That wasn't a rule before. You'd have guys in the outfield. You'd have four outfielders in right to deal with a left-handed pull hitter. You'd just stack up the right side

of the field and leave one guy on the left side. Over 30% of the time, they were using the shift in one way or another. They caught a guy with his heel on the grass and got him for it. What is a penalty in baseball? The runner just advances usually.

Oh, that's actually a pretty serious punishment. Okay. Yeah, or it's a ball or a strike, depending on who committed the... Like if the pitcher does something, like a balk, for example, if he doesn't come set correctly and begin the sequence and then throw his pitch,

if he comes set and then he goes after and tries to pick someone off, it's a balk. I never understood what balking was. Can I interrupt that? In basketball, what a travel is, no one fucking knows. And it's definitely changed over the years. And in the 50s, if you didn't press down on the top of the ball, it was like a carry or it was basically a travel. Nowadays, players

are running from the three-point line to the net and dunking it. On a related note, I don't think anyone knows what a balk is. I don't think anyone really, really knows. Anyone can find a balk in a way that is always enforced properly.

It's like porn. You know it when you see it. So once you've come set, you are initiating the pitch count. The pitch count has begun. You can't then reverse course and try to pick someone off. Coming set has a definition. He's going to stand. He's going to square up.

And his left foot is going to do sort of a tap thing. And then the sequence has begun he's in motion now the play has begun he can't stop reverse course and throw the ball over here that's a ball um so some but recently they've started calling a lot of box that they didn't call before because of that when they're they're so particular now about when the the the the pitch clock begins because they're enforcing that pitch clock rule um the the as soon as the batter steps in the box and looks at the pitcher he can receive a pitch so if the pitcher's already set he could fucking throw that thing and there's some of them that are doing that's a good change the games are so

much faster now they've shaped hours off the goddamn game. It was up to three hours and 20 minutes or something a game. So a thing about baseball is the rules haven't changed very much. Therefore, the records are kind of relevant for a long time. Again, I'll make my basketball comparison. There have been like, I'll make up this number. If it's not exactly right it's really close over the over 33 years old maybe three times in history has anyone had a 40 point game in the playoffs for a player it happened three times last week

right because scoring is up they've changed the way what defenders are allowed to do and they've changed what the offensive players are allowed to do. And now 40 points in a game is good, but not like legendary or anything. People break 40 all the time. And it just means that some of the records, the comparisons between eras, they don't fit. I agree. I was thinking about that exact thing today in relation to all this thing.

Yeah, it's a good point. Baseball has changed more than you'd think though because they just keep their changes under wraps uh i was talking about it a few months ago last season had they used two different baseballs there's a there's a playoff ball and there's a regular season ball the playoff ball has more pop they they didn't tell anybody and tell anybody they just they just yeah y'all throw these it's like fuck are you kidding me i saw like an article about that when they were like why are there so many dingers getting hit in the playoffs and it's like it'd be like taking the air out of the fucking football so that uh you could have a more dynamic game you know imagine that on the ball yeah every single sport is moving that direction like champions do what they have to do to ask it

i don't i don't even know how they added more scoring in basketball. There's so much already. Baseball, having more scoring and being faster. Hockey has the problem now of there's so much more scoring that it's starting to drag away from the average. Why is there more scoring? I know they took away the two-line pass, right? Is there other scoring? I know they took away the two line pass, right? Is there other significant things?

The biggest no scoring thing is they have been fucking over goalies for a long time, making new rules about how big the pads can be because over the past 20 years, they went from getting like five foot 10 really fast, agile guys to six foot eight hyper athletic guys. And so like you put pads on the six foot eight guy, the size they allowed, like Mike Richter to wear in the nineties for the Rangers. Like they cover way too much. And so they consistently were like,

Ben Bishop, you're six, seven. You can't wear that many pads. And he's like, but it's hurting so much. And they just keep telling him like, no,

you can't wear those pads. You can't wear that. And so shrinking the goalie pads is a big thing. The players are faster than ever there are no big nobody has a job in the nhl save maybe one guy still whose only job is like fuck people up who's the what's his name ryan reeves ryan reeves is not good at hockey but he's good at fucking people up he's the last enforcer who's he play for uh i think he's still on vegas okay or no he might have got trade he's an enforcer he's he play for uh i think he's still on vegas okay or no he might have got

traded he's an enforcer he's traded every fucking four months um roger that but uh yeah that's big and not the fast players being allowed to play fast without being like horrified of some goon who should be a union plumber like paralyzing them has opened it up a lot more like and just like players gotten smaller uh they've gotten faster like well that sometimes that goes together right like you don't if a guy's six six the only player that i can recognize right now seems like a small guy that uh jack he's a guy yeah Yeah, yeah. For whatever reason, I watch an hour worth of hockey a week, I guess now. And he's always the guy. He's always in on the action.

Seems like a real go-getter. He is a go-getter. Something I don't know if you realized is that Jack Hughes is a forward, and his younger brother, Luke Hughes, is a defenseman on the devils as well. So much of the time you're hearing Hughes, you're seeing Hughes out there so much. Maybe it seems like he was always there. This guy's playing every position.

They both have long hair. That is a downside of hockey. I think like, so you're a fan and you really want to see whatever today's star. I hate that you told me that he's not on the ice for two thirds of the time. Like a top player is 22 minutes. Does that sound like about right, Taylor? Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. And you know that other sports, the stars are on the ice, the court, the whatever, all the time in hockey. They rest a lot. They have to. It's just, you know how it is. Oh, yeah.

Yeah. But yeah, the players are just better now than they've ever been the systems are better players play like it's not that they intentionally pick smaller players it's that they take gambles on smaller players now like a dude in the late 90s a dude who was like five nine it's like fuck off like you don't are you kidding you're gonna you're gonna get beat up now like wait and like granted a lot of the time like the five eight five nine guys they don't pan out because they do get beat up but sometimes they're so fast and skilled that it ends up panning out and so more teams are taking risks on those guys now and even the big tall guys like it used to be a position like a

stay-at-home defenseman you'd have some six foot seven d-man who was not fast and just was there for his reach now they don't pick those guys up anymore if you're six six and you're slow you're not going to get in the league they'll take a six three guy who's quick uh so it's yeah so they're shrinking a little bit yeah yeah basketball i i everyone knows i'm a stats and stories guy but i've been watching more of the games play out and it's frustrating me a little bit it's right i was like it and this guy goes for a three and this guy goes for a three oh fast break he stopped at the three-point line and took his shot really because that's just how it works out it's better to shoot 40 from three than 60 from two i

need to check the math on that but but I think I'm right-ish. And maybe they're the same. But it turns out that it's better to shoot the three. And they're just three after three after three. Big, strong guys like Joel Embiid, one of the biggest, strongest guys, and this year's best player on the planet, plays for my team, shoots the three he's a center centers don't shoot three shaquille o'neal couldn't shoot a free throw he would never ever

shoot a three and now every player on the court has to shoot threes yeah that i mean i guess that's just an example of the whole sport getting better is like no one can be as much of a specialist now like you kind of have to have the whole kit to be valuable. They moneyballed it. You know, they figured out that like drawing fouls is worth a lot. It used to be a reliable two. They thought that was smart. Now it's only smart in very specific situations,

like end of the game when you're down by one. Are the Phillies, or not Philliesies the 76ers up in the series tied i think i need to check that it's still fun yeah i think it's two two one of your teams will get through if not 76ers the hurricanes will how are the hurricanes doing right now i think they play right as soon as we're done now i believe they are up two to1 in the series. I predicted that their last game that they dropped to New Jersey was just a fuck-up game. Oh, is it 2-2 now? No.

I don't think they'll lose again to New Jersey. They're just a better team, barring some insane goaltending from New Jersey. It's 2-1. 2-2, he was talking about. Oh, it's 2-1. Okay, I thought so. Yeah, so the 76ers were 2-2, like I said.

The Hurricanes are 2-1. Okay, they can still finish it in 76ers were 2-2, like I said. The Hurricanes are 2-1. Okay, they can still finish it in five, like I predicted. It would be my first correct prediction in ever. So that'd be pretty exciting. I'd be scared if I was you, you know. I'd be called to win for your team. So, yeah, I'm going to watch that after this. I really like watching the...

The Devils are a fun team to play. I know they're terrible people in New Jersey. You've informed me. Yes, they're from North Jersey. The bad part. The part that embarrasses all of us. The part that gave New Jersey its reputation. The North Jersey part.

And I will say this about those North Jersey fans. They were doing a lot of booing on non-calls. Oh, my God. I noticed a couple of very obviously two people falling in a non-trip and i saw the new jersey feds boo and it's like hey hey you guys are northeast you have a hockey team this isn't fucking dallas like when i see dallas or carolina like booing icing i'm like i get it they don't know what the fuck they're watching new jersey it's cold like carolina excuse that way.

They'll be like, shoot it! He's at his own blue line. You don't shoot it yet. Can we talk about Jersey fan for a second? Yes, Jersey fans. When are they happy? When people are injured? Do they even

cheer for championships? They don't like wins. When fans of the opposing team are hurting that's when they're happy it can be damaged to their car their they're so racist are they racist no i would say not very racist oh yeah yeah and boston they're known for that um but no i don't think philadelphia jersey is known for for that i ask because, I don't think Philadelphia or Jersey is known for that. I watch every UFC event, and particularly the ones that don't take place in the Apex Center

in Las Vegas, which is like home court advantage. It's so weird. I like... What do you mean? Who has home court in the UFC? The UFC does. I'm saying that it's not a uh i'm talking about the fandom in different places when they go to when they go to england those fans are incredible those are some of the best fans brazilian fans suck i don't like brazilian fans they're mostly

just screaming um we're gonna kill you we're gonna kill kill you're going to die you're going to die that's it yeah yeah yeah it's i love it it's the the first couple of times but you know that for 15 years now i've been listening to them chant you're gonna die you're gonna die but it's in portuguese so i don't i forget the details of it but that's what it means you're gonna die and some fighters hate it i'm sorry to interrupt your story kyle some fighters hate it and they're like oh my god there's so many they're shouting i'm gonna die is that cool i'm gonna fight here this is really dangerous and you're making it seem more dangerous uh the fighters i like like dance to it because it's like a beat is like a you're gonna die you're gonna die and they're like yeah yeah i am yeah yeah i am and i'm just that's that's who i hoped i would be if i was in there like go ahead chant it up.

I'd be scared of getting beheaded afterward. You are in Brazil. You've heard Chael Sonnen talk about the security that they needed to move around. He's like, I'm just trying to fight. These people are trying to kill me. But what I was going to talk about was the awful Jersey fans at the last event because

usually the UFC fans are really good. They sell out every arena they go to New York it's sold out they go to wherever they are it's sold out it's these huge huge crowds Jersey the Jersey crowd booed every result and every interaction I don't remember them cheering for anything it was Aljermaine Sterling versus Henry Cejudo and I know sometimes it can seem like oh yeah this is the greatest guy who ever did it versus the greatest guy who ever did it. But for the little guys who are like 135 pounds or whatever,

this is it. Henry Cejudo, gold medalist, Olympic gold medalist, and two-time, two-different division champion of the UFC. He retired for three years because he thought he could negotiate with Dana White, but Dana White is really hard to do. Dana doesn't give a fuck. He's done it to

multiple people. It's kind of cool to see the boss man not care if you're the star or not. Oh, you're LeBron James, huh? I don't care. LeBron James is nothing without the NBA. You think you're going to go to China and be what you are now? You're not. you need us as much as we need you and or more uh it's kind of his and and he's fighting a guy who and he just keeps winning he's the champion of the world uh

and and i didn't know he's as good as he was uh he wins the hometown man wins al Al Jermaine Sterling beats the fucking gold medalist, beats the two-time former champion. Boo! He goes, and not even for, he goes, what's up, New Jersey? Thank you! Boo! Oh! Were they saying Boo earns?

Yes, yes, sir. They're saying Boo earns. They're saying Boo earn they're saying boo earn and it was you could see his face at one point there's this still image of him on the canvas kind of looking up and being like booze i don't understand um it's it's pretty sad he gets he's been getting booed everywhere really because he was the guy who originally won the belt with that illegal knee from Peter Yan. For the listeners, he received the illegal knee. The other guy got disqualified.

He was clearly losing that fight. Yeah. Oh, and then they asked him, can you continue on? And he does the calculus in his head. So if I can't continue i become champ huh if i continue i'm losing badly yeah i can't continue i'm the champ yep and his face when you know that moment where the where the ref holds one guy's hand up his face is hilarious zach if you can find the picture of aljamain sterling winning over Peter Jan. It's Piotr Jan.

That's when he won the belt. He was disqualified in that way. And it began, Taylor, one of the darkest slides for a player of all time in anything. Peter Jan, champion of the world, loses his belt like that. He's whooping this guy's ass, and the guy falls to his knees, and Peter, by reflex, knees him in the head. He's like he's like oh shit i didn't need to knee him in the head i was killing him already dude do go gets all wonky over there oh i've lost look at this that guy on the right i still consider one of the best fighters in the world he's lost like five in a row since then and every one of them has either been

the closest close call by uh um um i think they've all been decisions just about i think he just keeps losing decisions it's crazy how he's just one percent worse than the other guy no matter but he's not it's bad judging a lot it's been bad they gave sean o'malley result he's the one where sean o'malley um got the ridiculous win over him and none of us thought Sean won that fight. Oh, I do remember that. You're right. Sean is next to fight Aljermaine Sterling, the funk master.

You know what? Instead of open carrying, I'm going to start wearing these kinds of gloves around. Dude, I would not fuck with a guy wearing UFC gloves. Dude, do you think that would be intimidating if I just walk around in UFC gloves. Dude, do you think that would be intimidating if I just walk around in UFC gloves all the time? I think you'd be bringing gloves to a gunfight.

I think it's a problem. Yeah, right. Too quick. I can't stop. They'll be so intimidated. I would think that you were like special needs and I would mistake them for mittens. that you were like special needs and they were i would i would mistake them for mittens it'd be like it'd be like the same flavor as like seeing like me wearing a cape around to be like just steer clear of that guy these are my make a wish gloves yeah these are my yeah i'd be wary of you such a large man with gloves on wandering through the aisles of the supermarket yeah like

like steering my cart like into people's paths. No, no, no. Carrying your cart like a caveman. So that it's wheels pointed that way and just holding it like... I saw a guy doing that. I saw that clip too. He picks up the food

and throws it in the sideways. He's like carrying the entire cart. That's funny. That's a good clip. We should go to our own local grocery stores and have fun with that. You can go try that one out at the DeKalb Farmer's Market. They don't have carts there.

I think they only have the little bundle things. What do you call those? Oh, the little baskets. Dude, farmer's markets are so great like they could be wrong they really are great the veg like you remember when you guys are young i always love the farmer's market god damn that's so true man no god damn it we're white people we like farmer's market best washing machine i just watch it tumble i'm not old at all dude i was about to be like dude the tomatoes at this farmer's market you wouldn't believe you would not i'm telling you you would not believe the flavor in these

tomatoes i don't know what you're what the kids don't like this past weekend i was texting some buddies to see if they wanted to get together and do something. On AOL Messenger. I was like... On AOL Messenger. On AOL. And I didn't get a response for a while. And I'm like, it's already 8.30.

Nothing's going on tonight. And I was walking around in my house. I'm like, around in my house. I'm like, that was a very old person thing to think. But yeah, it's nice getting older. I get to enjoy farmer's markets, the flavor of a nice tomato and the hatred of a bad one. I just like tasting that sunshine. It's good stuff.

I like supporting those local farmers, you know, taking care of that. They have better corn too. Really, it just solidifies the absolute horse shit they're selling you at the grocery store you ever get those uh those those bootleg eggs from somebody who's like got chickens oh yes like real eggs or something like when my grandparents had like chickens they used to let me go in there and like chicken eggs oh yeah chicken you talk about oh snake eggs you're talking about yeah yeah you just reach on the snake and you grab that leathery ball once you get that leathery clutch in your hands you you have one boy you want to taste the same no there's no way that snake eggs taste like chicken eggs no way yeah that's got to be a

sour egg i would bet that most i would bet most like bird eggs taste similar chicken eggs no way yeah that's got to be a sour egg i would bet that most i would bet most like bird eggs taste similar like i bet an ostrich egg isn't wildly different than a chicken chicken eggs can vary greatly like there is a big difference between like one of those really orangey yolky uh eggs and i don't know that cheap sunny delight colored egg. Yeah, it's true. Shut the fuck up! Shut the fuck up. Man. This website I'm reading says bird eggs taste

different. The inside of different chicken eggs are all the same but even like goose and ostrich and chicken tastes different. So I have to assume snakes are different. Whenever I see someone cook an ostrich egg, I get kind of grossed out by how much of it there is. It's like too much of it.

When they're mixing it up and scrambling it, it's like, man, that's a big-ass yolk. That yolk is like the size of my fist or something. I can't. It's like a dozen eggs. I think I missed the beginning. They serve ostriches to one person?

You just have a giant egg? What I've seen is when I've seen ostrich eggs prepared, it's on YouTube or like a TV show, but they scramble a whole ostrich egg in one and make like a giant omelet with it is what I usually see them do. And then serve it to four people?

Is that... It's a cooking show, so I don't really see them eat. But presumably, I think an ostrich egg would feed a couple of three people or something. Dude, by volume, it would be more than a dozen chicken eggs. They're enormous. And you said that the yolk

ratio is different than it's not that it's just there's just so much egg there's something about it being so enormous is grossing me out like do you feel like it'd make you feel powerful eggs are no look at that big ass yolk dude like that's that's a single cell dude i would love i would love to was that a joe rogan reference that yeah do your astro james make you feel powerful joe do they do you want to peck they make you want to just fucking strut no joe you lunatic like a dinosaur it doesn't make me feel more aggressive does it make you want to bury your head in the sand dude i would eat an ostrich egg 100 eggs are great we're in one of the times where eggs are

good for us again which any news that comes out that says eggs are bad for you that's propaganda that's nonsense i eat so many eggs and i've eaten so many eggs that i am disgusted by them i i soak them in uh hot sauce or or like a mustardy vinegary stuff stuff now so i can even stomach them um i'm more likely to drink i'm more likely to drink them raw than i am to cook them up like if i if i have to eat six eggs i could i'll be oh man i could crack those in a glass and they could just be down i don't have to eat that really dude it takes no time to eat six scrambled eggs you don't even like chew them you just shovel them down and what i like to do is i

eat half of them when they're so hot that i burn my throat and i go and then i slow down a little bit then i finish the other half i'm just over i'm something about the texture and the smell um i'm just grossed out by them but you know you gotta eat them so you got to take a little tea break from them then because you don't want to miss out on eggs the rest of your life they're such a wonderful i i've never really been a big fan of eggs i've always kind of felt this way oh yeah well then never mind then and plus i know you've never seen rocky but there's a scene yeah i know look at i love i'm thank you for glaring at him woody that's a form of child abuse i blame the parents i started terminator to watch that and i got distracted i will finish it christ almighty but there's a scene where

cultured there's a scene where rocky wakes up and is like tattered um like like workout clothes and like warm goes off and he just literally sits up cracks those eggs drinks them down wipes the fucking goo with his sleeve and gets out there and starts running and you know the music picks up and you're like yeah he's up everybody else is asleep it's philadelphia like not it's a lazy neighborhood to begin with but it's it's dead it's nothing but steam and coldness and he runs until the sun's up and then he runs some more you know it's good it's good stuff taylor when you watch rocky i want you to think this i want you to know this There is a scene where he runs that Kyle mentions, and he goes to the top of the Philadelphia Art

Museum, which is a tremendous amount of steps. When you watch it, think to yourself, my friend Woody, back in the 90s, when it was cool, skated down those on rollerblades backwards. I did that. Down the stairs? Wow.

All the way. I'm sincerely pretty impressed by that on rollerblades that would not be easy it is a lot of stairs were you doing uh the like the backwards like that like stepping backwards like rolling no you just kind of hold your i held one foot in front one foot in the back and just oh so you're just like, this is fun. Well, other people were doing it and I had done it on like five stairs and I'm like, well, I can do it on five. Maybe I can do it on like 150. And it turns out I can. You're on a really good luck streak when you think about it.

When you think about your personal risk profile, it's like, he's his injuries aren't surprising like they're actually fortunate like it's actually like oh it's just a leg he's fine like grant thompson is king of random he was a youtuber with over a million subs and he died on a paramotor a few years ago i went flying yesterday and colin's just like you're not going to die. Are you going to die? He's watching me launch. Suddenly, he's terrified I'm going to kill myself on a paramotor. You're going to be like, no. You're good. What did you say?

I told him that Grant had only been flying for a few months and made bad choices in bad weather. And that I have been flying since 2016 or or something and yeah i checked the weather i don't know why he knows about the dead youtuber i've been telling you forever make sure your wife doesn't know about him either like every time somebody in your sport every time somebody your sport like eats one i i'm thinking like i bet i bet woody doesn't mention this to jackie oh yeah yeah i

watch footage of like crashes and parachute throw stuff all the time and i want to be like jackie jackie check this one out yeah but i'm like no this is probably a bad topic look at this but he landed on the pine tree just so that it impaled him all the way in the box and he thinks the reserve's going to work, but it just tears away. I didn't think about this until you made fun of me for not seeing Rocky

and all the movies I haven't seen. I probably should. I started Terminator and this is my level of knowledge. I won. I swear to God, I arnold was like going to be terminating bad guys i did not know that he was the bad guy in these movies i thought that some woman was in trouble and that arnold schwarzenegger had to come back and save her

but i only got to the point where there's some other guy who's like... You're in a primo position right now to enjoy these movies. Let me tell you, not knowing that is one of the... The internet talks about this all the time. About how, man, I wish that I had known. One of the most asked questions on the movie's subreddit is,

did you know going in that Arnold was the such and such? Anybody who was alive back then, did you know and what was the reaction? This is a big thing on, it's one of the main like internet Terminator things that happens. So not knowing that is really good.

I'm super jealous. I watched him as a kid. I was shocked. He just started fucking people up who really didn't do anything wrong he was like give me your clothes and then they like put up just like a hey you're not taking my clothes is that terminator one yeah yeah did you recognize uh the one motorcycle guy as um um bill pullman no i didn't i bill pullman right or am i i always get his name wrong it's this i gotta get it i still don't know who Bill... Oh, Bill Pullman.

Sure, we go way back. I got it wrong. Is that the guy from Twister? No, Bill Pullman is the fucking Independence Day president. Independence Day. Hang on, I'm going to find it. Oh, wait. The guy who gave the great speech?

I did not notice an actor in that scene. So I... Oh, I'll just restart the movie. I didn't know it was a panel. Bill Paxton. It's Bill Paxton. So Bill Paxton is in all the major sci-fi movies. He's in Alien Terminator and one more that's not coming to me right now.

The motorcycle guy I'm thinking of was big. He was Arnold size. That's why I took his clothes. Yes. It must have been a different guy. Well, there were three guys. There was like this goofy one. There's Bill Paxton.

And then there's this big fucker. And he plays the big fucker in everything. You'll recognize him right away as square-jawed scary man. He's always the square-jawed bad guy. He did that whole run in X-Files where he was square-jawed scary man, alien.

He's tons of work on sci-fi shows. So even when they've got that alien makeup on him you're like that's that guy that's that guy he just has his face i'll notice it now dude i i actually want to watch terminator one and two now if that's like a good angle to watch it from i you know i was so close to just starting on two because you told me to skip the first one and i'm like no i gotta at least kind of know what's what's going on the first one is a low budget indie horror movie that that just happened to be made by the one of the greatest filmmakers of all time so he took their little budget and their and and an idea that came to him in a nightmare and he made what you've got there don't ignore

the fact that he had to pay that other author all that money. Don't talk about that. He didn't steal his idea for Terminator. James Cameron, he did. He did steal the idea. But that doesn't matter because he did a really good job of making that movie. I didn't know James Cameron made Terminator. Yeah. Okay. And then Terminator 2, like I said, the first one is this low-budget indie horror movie.

And then the second one is a full-on horror movie and then the second one is full-on action movie because arnold by by then arnold is arnold so you you've got you've got a thing you've got a guy to build your uh your series around it's ridiculous that three didn't happen just a couple years after two it would have been a completely different direction because by the time they make three it was too late arnold was wasn't arnold anymore and they just had i don't know it didn't work he doesn't play i don't want to spoil he's not peak arnold as a person so he's not peak arnold in the show either yeah yeah i mean this terminator one like he's he's looking juicy. He's looking good. Has he cut his own eyeball out yet?

He did, and I got to see that very jarring fake face that they layered over him. Because I was watching that, and I'm like, oh, this must be the time that he's going to reach into that fake face and pull it all off, and it's going to be a fucking robot. He didn't do it, though. Nope. No, that's later on.

Terminator 2 makes great use of twins for things like that. Whenever they have a shape-shifting alien in that movie, there are at least two, maybe three sets of twins in that movie. You know what I'm watching that's good on Kyle's recommendation?

The newest Picard season three i started with season three yeah i'm watching it with jackie jackie is as big a star trek fan as kyle is and um i'm a different kind of fan i like the movies i like the action star trek this is more like s&p 500 star trek you know they're like like it's more i just feel like next gen has always been responsibility and smart decisions and prime directive and the movies were always action but but that didn't fit what the show was you know the show was more philosophical and problem solving big thought stuff you know there were battles but it was the first thing more than... Next Gen is almost Doctor Who-ish in that

they're in a really tough spot, but they're going to think their way out of this. Whereas the movies are like, we're in a tough spot. Who here has martial arts and base jumping talents? Everyone? Perfect! Perfect! We'll need

some distraction. Is anyone good at motocross? How far into Picard are you how many episodes okay I think it's an hour long so it's a fair amount of time it's not like you can suck down four at a time yeah I think it's more of a it feels like a movie script that they used there

especially the first four episodes and as it goes on it gets more and more like fan service until eventually they're gonna they're gonna have to get a backboard the enterprise somehow or another right and when they all get up when they all get on the enterprise i was just it was it was a super nerdy moment it would be like a spoiler taylor i didn't think it would be um okay taylor it would be like if all the hobbits and gandalf and everybody got back together and went to the Shire and just sat there and ate a meal in that hole in the ground.

Remember the time when we fought the Balrog? You fought the Balrog, Gandalf. Don't you remember? We all ran. Yes, you were pussies about that. I could have done with a bit of help. Do you remember, Frodo, the time that we both walked in

on Samwise tugging his back at Rosie Cotton? Oh, that was funny. That's a little lore. I think that was the name of the woman he ended up marrying, right? Rosie Cotton? Yeah, Rosie was definitely her name. Rosie. It became Rosie Rosie was definitely her name. Oh, Rosie.

It became Rosie Gamgee, I suppose. Mm-hmm. Yeah, I loved that third season of Picard. Everyone's sort of talking about how awful the first two seasons were and how that third season was this incredible redemption. They made Patrick Stewart let go, and they made that other showrunner let go, and they got to they made patrick stewart let go and they made that other uh showrunner let go and they uh they got to do their own thing and it was what everybody wanted a little frail even in season three i get that he's like a hundred years old or something but for the purposes of the show i

it's not the physical frailness that bothers me it's sort of the emotional and mental frailness and his voice yeah like like his voice he's like yeah but he's an actor and i think he's doing it on purpose and so i'll say this he becomes he really comes back into his own by the end i think okay um and and does some bucket he you know he goes for a jog at one point. And also that. So obviously everyone's aged, but we were looking up some of the actors ages and they were like Beverly Crusher. I'm like, okay, she's had some work done. She looks pretty good.

And she's not going to look as good as she did in the 90s. Neither do I. But she looks pretty good. And I'm like, whoa, she's's over 70 i didn't realize she was that she looks 10 years younger than she everyone has aged so well that they could very easily do another season of this show um i i wish they would and they just get keep the band together and do another fucking season uh war old is tremendous i was just about to say how old is michael doran i saw interviews of him recently on youtube it's hard for me to tell because he's black

um but age well right the age he he's a he has aged well and he always does that shit on his face right so i feel like that has kept him from aging over the years you're saying without the i... I thought you were going with it hides the aging, but no, you're saying it prevented it, maybe. I think they could hide as much aging as they want with Worf because of his costume. I've always said that

and thought that a Captain Worf show would be good. He's my favorite part, I think, of this third season. He's like, I am a pacifist, but he's got a sword on his back yeah like two episodes yeah he's serious i've only seen him for a few seconds at the very end of the second episode he saves someone and they introduce us to wharf cool and i was just about to say like he's still athletic he moves well he doesn't seem old at all like oh dumbass are you aware of stuntman

I'm like, oh, dumbass, are you aware of Stuntman? Oh, yeah. He probably didn't do that scene. You know, a movie that could have used some stuntmen is, I rewatched The Irishman again recently. It's a good movie. It meanders a good bit. But Robert De Niro.

When Robert De Niro throws that beating. Yeah, when he beats that guy up, when he throws anything in the film, when he does anything physically demanding, like the first time I watched it, I straight up did not pick up on he had been de-aged with his daughter. And it took me like a minute to be like, the fuck is he doing with this little girl?

Oh, am I supposed to think he's 30? And then I noticed when he like put his hands up, they made it very obvious, like put his hands up they made it very obvious like young looking hands and i'm like oh my god this ancient man who's who's dying now like is is falling apart right in front of us did you see you see the scene where he throws the guns in the river he is he has john mccain arms he can't lift his arms up. Hmm. Oh, yeah. It's kind of sad. I know it's time to wrap, but I watched. I'm going to foul this name up, but is it John Mulaney, the comedian?

I get it. Perfect. Have you guys seen his new special? No, I saw it. I saw like him live like a year and a half ago, and he was like working on it. I started watching his new special and I was like, I've seen this. So I turned it off the whole special from beginning to end is about his battle with addiction his time in rehab his uh and you can tell he's really sensitive about the hit to his reputation and um and i think it's kind of funny that you talked about it for 90

minutes i didn't know most of this stuff yeah i. I certainly didn't know, like, I'll just give away a bit of it. At one point he calls us. He's like, I need to, like, not get money anymore. So rather than go to, like, a therapist or a doctor or someone who could help, I call my accountant and tell him not to give me money unless I CC my doctor on the money request. to give me money unless i cc my doctor on the money request and he's like i could have just called my accountant and told him never mind because it's my money and i'm a grown-up but instead i decided to steal money from myself and he goes out buys a twelve thousand dollar rolex and immediately pawns it what but there's all it for six grand but there's all these like details in the middle that get funny and uh uh like that

kind of thing makes him look terrible and desperate he's a drug addict who stole from himself what drugs i think it was cocaine uh cocaine's a big one but there's like six like when he checked into rehab he had like cocaine xanax eight. I don't know what that is. That's a mix of cocaine and heroin, isn't it? Yeah. 8-Ball? Okay. He had a lot of stuff.

Maybe – I want to say benzos, but I'm not positive. Anyway, it was like – Wow, he just took everything. Oh, Klonopin. Klonopin. Klonopin is a benzodiazepine. Yeah, Xanax is a benzodiazepine. He had – he tells you – I shouldn't ruin the routine. He tells you how to get anything you want

from a doctor he's like i'm not saying you should do this i'm not but i'm saying if you did this it might work go to webmd and sort the doctors from worst to best oh go to the worst doctor his doctor didn't use his last name it was like dr michael yeah and dr michael worked out i'm remembering this he didn't have an office or anything you just go to his apartment and he's like my wife is sleeping and he said it in a way that means like i i totally didn't kill her she's just asleep right now and he goes inside and the doctor insists on giving him a shot it's this little like sexual assault thing that the doctor does and uh he's like hey you know you want like a flu shot and he's like no you gave me two flu shots already he's like uh can i get you like a b12 it just

keeps like suggesting shots until he gives in to the peer pressure of getting a shot. So he does, you know, one of these things. And the doctor's like, nah, you should take the whole shirt off. And he's like, I know. He takes his shirt off, gets the shot. And that's all the doctor wanted. That was like what he got out of it. And he's like, I need Klonopin.

He's like, all right, sure. he's like all right sure what's this for he already said yes and uh he's like uh anxiety yeah well then you need it and he writes him out his prescription and and that's like these are the the whole routine makes him look really bad yeah yeah and i thought he was an alcoholic and beat it. But instead, he was addicted to everything. And it's pretty good. I enjoyed it. That's what he has to work with for material, I guess. That's pretty cool. I'm not going to spoil it.

If you watch his special, if it was anything like the live show I saw, he has a very, very funny, probably five, six-minute segment on his intervention with some comedians and people in his life i'm not going to say anything about it because it's very funny i don't want to ruin it but uh yeah john mulaney and if you haven't seen john mulaney's first special i think it was his first big one for maybe like six seven years ago check that out it's genuinely hilarious so he makes fun of his first special oh he's like this first special special is great he oh it's not that it's not good he's like i have a different vibe now.

Before, I was like, and he's walking around the stage pacing. And he's like, I wonder why I was like that, huh? What do you think? High energy, can't stop talking. He was on coke for that special we all love. Yeah, he was gacked up. And he's hilarious. Sounds like he's better on the cocaine.

Well, don't tell him that. He seems like he's doing well. I still like it. We'll judge him on the next special and then we'll decide whether or not we tell him. How many comedians have lots of good specials? Very few. Taylor is a hard grader too.

If a guy falls from a 9 nine to a seven he's like you lost it i think louis ck has a new special on his website right i have not seen it i'll watch it i'll see what louis got pretty sure he has a new special as of like a month ago maybe on his on his website i hope he spends all his time talking about his embarrassment like John Mulaney did or is it Mulaney right yeah yeah whatever angle he takes Louie's funny

they said it was okay they said it was okay I asked for permission that's what they said they say ask for permission all your life well I asked for permission and it didn't work out. It didn't work out.

That's what it should be. I bet it would be funny. Alright. PJN, 455.
