Starting point is 00:03:04 Okay, massively important to me as a child. I remember in first grade they made us, they were like, what's your favorite musical artist? And they would like write it down for us. We couldn't write yet. We were stupid. Yeah. Now you know her and Garth Brooks cheated. Yes, dude.
Starting point is 00:03:16 I now know all about all the lore. And I was obsessed with her and my mom was too. On a bus to St. Cloud, Minnesota. Do you remember that? They cheated. They were cheaters. How do you feel about cheating? I love it. You and your husband closed? Totally cheated. They were cheaters. How do you feel about cheating? I love it.
Starting point is 00:03:25 You and your husband closed? Totally closed. Closed? Tight. Yeah, you're randomly very conservative. I'm really far right. I'm really far right. I hope to be your most far right guess.
Starting point is 00:03:35 And you got your husband. Well, famously now I, okay, I don't want to get into bisexuality with you because I know how you feel about it. No, it's not true, Laura. It's not true! You know what? I've heard everything. You've heard wrong.
Starting point is 00:03:48 I want to tell you, and bisexual, can I say something about bisexual? Please. It is real. Yes! It is valid. I love it. I love hearing about it. I believe in it.
Starting point is 00:04:01 Leanne Royves! Leanne Royves? I love bi! Okay, but I. So what is your. So I used to, I used to, I used to pork a lot of women back in the day. Yeah, wound up with a man though.
Starting point is 00:04:11 And wound up with a man. Which is part of it. It's like 100% of the thing, isn't it? That eventually I do. But you're not allowed to say that. I'm finally cleared to talk about this publicly and I'm excited about it. But I did have like a dream about having sex with a woman
Starting point is 00:04:24 like a few months ago. and I woke up from it and I was just like, you know what, I'm just gonna do, I'm just gonna ask, just gonna ask. And I was like, would you mind if I did that sometimes? And he was like, oh, you mean have affairs with women? And I said, mm-hmm. No worries, no worries. And he said a sentence to me
Starting point is 00:04:42 that I'm never gonna forget. He goes, the fact that you don't think that's cheating is homophobic I'm loving him. He's so smart. I'm loving he's so smart. It's the most big brain shit. I've ever heard in my entire life I've been trying listen I'm not running bits on you, but I've been throwing it on stage and sometimes it doesn't hit and I'm like you don't hurt He had to teach me that women are people on stage and sometimes it doesn't hit and I'm like you don't know he had to teach me that women are people
Starting point is 00:05:12 I'm falling asleep. I'm like boobs, but he's like those women have personal history You don't mind if I fuck a couple of these absolute Feelings are just collateral damage in my fuck quest you don't mind do you? Know that you don't mind. He said hey, honey You're actually not coming for more than just hits and curves my friend. Those are human beings He's so right yeah, he's too smart. He's too smart. That's the thing Yeah, pulling over on this it was brave of you to tell that story cuz you come off really bad in it Yeah, yeah, I'm a hundred percent. I I'm 100% the bad guy and I'm straight Straight is first ever conservative straight villain. Yeah, I say your straight husband
Starting point is 00:05:53 Has to teach you about women having feelings and agency agency He's like you don't get to just go have sex with he was He was like, that's a choice they're making. They have personalities. Yeah, they have personalities. So I hadn't considered that women have personalities. Have you thought about that ever? Whoa. It was news to me. No, opposite.
Starting point is 00:06:14 I only consider women as having personalities. When I find out they have sexual desires, I'm like, whoa. They're just kind of an amorphous mist to you that have a lot of opinions, no physicality. Women to me are a warm, glowing light in the corner of every room They they guide me through this dark time we call existence But always the corner though, but then when I find out they have a physical body that has sexual desires I go We and wrong
Starting point is 00:06:42 And you know a woman with a physical body. She has a physical body. Hachacha! Does she ever? Hachimachi! Yeah, need her. I was lusting after Leanne Roymes. Lusting after who? I need her, like, water. Leanne Roymes!
Starting point is 00:07:00 Don't say her name normal in here. Leanne Roymes! You know, Leanne Rimes. You even did it then. You went Roims. She did something so special with the Coyote Ugly soundtrack. I mean, I'm really impressed with that for years. I'm not off it.
Starting point is 00:07:16 Yeah, I shouldn't be. I can't fight the moonlight. And I won't even try. I tried when I was younger. I tried to fight the moonlight. And guess what? Didn't take. Also, that woman was like 12 when she was younger. I tried to fight the moonlight. And guess what? Didn't take. Also, that woman was like 12 when she made that.
Starting point is 00:07:28 She was so young for so long. She was deep into her 20s, I think. Was she really? Yeah. Why is she like a cherubic? Why is she perpetually like 19 to me? I have no idea. Huh.
Starting point is 00:07:37 That's because I don't care about women and their stories. You don't like women. I'm kind of glad you ended up with a man. Because you seem to have a lot of reverence for him. He's a doll. I fear what you might have done to a lesbian. To a sweet, good lesbian. I don't know. I think it was never meant to be.
Starting point is 00:07:57 How did you end up with a guy anyhow? Well... Somebody with your countenance? Somebody with your whole situation? You ended up with a guy. This is not the first I've thought about it. No. I've known him since I was 15 years old. Oh, boo.
Starting point is 00:08:12 I know. Doesn't suck. We started dating at 25, but we were good friends for like 10 years. Nice. Good friends like, had you ever? I was just pining. You were pining for him?
Starting point is 00:08:20 I was pining for years. Really? I was pining for him. And was he pining? No. No. He was not pining. He. I was pining for years. I was pining for him. Really? And was he pining? No. No! He was not pining. He didn't seem to be.
Starting point is 00:08:27 And I, I mean, I think about it all the time, but like, I truly was like, I will just never tell him if it means that he'll be my friend, cause I love him. And then, and then one time we got really drunk and he was like, you wanna fuck? And I was like, yeah. And then it's been great ever since.
Starting point is 00:08:43 Hold on. Hold on, Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Wait a fucking second.
Starting point is 00:08:55 Really quick. Hold on. You guys are friends at 15. 15, yeah. For 10 years. 10 years. You take the coward's way out. That's right.
Starting point is 00:09:04 Well, it was about four years, I would say, of me being in love with him. We went to the University of Tennessee Knoxville years. You take the coward's way out. That's right. Well, it was about four years, I would say, of me being in love with him. We went to the University of Tennessee Knoxville together. I really fell in love with him. Go Vols. Yes. Go Vols forever. And you, for four years, you carry a flame for this young man.
Starting point is 00:09:15 That's right. And you say nothing of it. Nothing. Because you think being a heartbroken friend is better than being, you know, excommunicated for my deep feelings. Yeah, I get it. Like being down bad was better in some way. Being down bad was better than being out for good.
Starting point is 00:09:33 Being up for Jesus. Girl, false. And so then you make no moves. I make no moves. You exist as a coward for four years. I'm total coward. Also, by the way, dating other people, people pretending to love other but was just like absolutely head over heels pretending to love other people Yeah, most of them
Starting point is 00:09:52 men or women So you are playing with the emotions of several women While you wait for this man to what see you in the right light or something I was already where I have like some blush on And then you still say nothing You both get drunk, which is inappropriate of course in college especially and then you what he says should we fuck He's a nice a fuck. That was certainly the subtext. Yeah, he just kind of looked upon me I'll do it
Starting point is 00:10:32 You're him and the cameras you that does not To me that doesn't end in sex Yeah, you go you go no he said it with his eyes. And he's doing like the freeze frame from a Debbie Downer sketch. That is cute. He absolutely did not say do you want to fuck. But it was like, I feel a certain level of attraction all of a sudden I said me too darling. He said that?
Starting point is 00:11:04 It was something, it really was something along the lines of- You're not painting him in any clear or good light. He, okay, I, I, I- I feel a certain level of attraction. He's a cyborg. Sounds good, Jeffrey Dahmer. He's a cyborg. Yeah, what the fuck?
Starting point is 00:11:15 Something has aroused me suddenly. Uh, Laura, I hate to alarm thee, but I've just been overcome by an emotion that is quite foreign to one No, he said something that at the time sounded romantic But I don't remember was and then it would just broke down this barrier and we've been together ever since nice I know Did you ever when you were still going on dates with people some of us are still in hell? Yes Did you ever like after a really good first date be like? I'm gonna remember everything about this because it's the beginning of a big story. Yeah, actually you ever do that. Yeah. Yes
Starting point is 00:11:56 Yes, I have be like be like yeah It's important that I remember what corner we kissed at because that's gonna be the corner We have to take our wedding where he's gonna get yeah where. Where he's gonna propose, and this is such a, it's odd it's a corner because it's a real turning point in my life. Yeah, I would romanticize. You're romantic, you're a romantic. I do that with everybody. I am a romantic.
Starting point is 00:12:14 You are. Are you? Yeah. Nice. I think. Just for this one guy though. Yeah, I don't know, I'm pretty locked in. Except for wanting to have sex with lesbians or whatever.
Starting point is 00:12:23 Well, by the way, can I say both of you are homophobic? Because you are homophobic because you fail to consider women have personhood. And he's homophobic because he's not going to allow you to sleep with women. I did. I did talk to him about it. I do think I married the one straight man in the world who's like, no, that doesn't really appeal to me in any way.
Starting point is 00:12:46 You know what I mean? He's like, he can't even be like, hot. Why don't you say yes and then stroke off about it, freak. Yes, stroke off, stroke off. Not yet, sorry. Stroke off about it, you little freak. Why don't you say yes and then jerk your shit, thinking about it, you fucking psychopath. Something's arisen in my loins. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:08 You are a romantic though. I am. Are you like, are you, are you, you're not like a serial dater, are you? Are you in relationships often? I am a... I am a many times scorned lover boy. I was sent to Earth. I was sent to Earth.
Starting point is 00:13:24 I was sent to Earth. I was sent to Earth. I am a many times scorned lover boy. I was sent to earth. Here's what I think. Here's what I think. I think I was an angel in heaven. I think you're still that. I think God created me and I was an angel in heaven. And then I fell from grace through circumstances that were not my own fault.
Starting point is 00:13:44 100%. And I ended up behaving devilishly. And then God said, to teach you a lesson, I'm going to send you to earth with so much love to give. And you are going to encounter the type of gay men who are sent from the devil. Who make you hate yourself. To scorch the earth. And so I'm a crestfallen lover boy.
Starting point is 00:14:11 Oh, that's beautiful. Sent down from heaven to partake in a punishment. Yeah. And that's what's my dating life. Any time. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha I'm a quest fallen lover boy. And that's what's my love life. I'm a quest fallen lover boy. That's beautiful.
Starting point is 00:14:29 I'm a fallen from grace lover boy forced to mingle with these heathens. Yes, and he said, I'm gonna give you more love than you've ever known, than anyone's ever known what to do with. Yeah, and he said, by the way, I'm not gonna send you back to earth during a time when gay men were pining for each other
Starting point is 00:14:44 in silence and sharing beds at war and writing each other letters when they're kissing maybe once at the end of their lives. I'm not going to give you that. I'm going to send you to a time that has an application called Grindr. And you're going to have to be on it. You're going to be on it. You're going to have to be on it. And you're going to be receiving taps and you're going to be sending taps.

Starting point is 00:29:36 as I possibly can. Never had a better time in my entire life. I've never. It's insane. Were you there before you were here? I lived there for two summers in college. Okay, okay, okay. I really enjoyed it But I gotta say I'm glad I was broke in Chicago. I don't think I would have liked being broke in New York I liked being broke in Chicago fine. It was doable. Totally. I like living in New York with a more comfortable financial situation I can pay my bills, which is nice And I enjoy coming to LA every once in a while. Yeah. It's nice.
Starting point is 00:30:07 Well, that's the move. And I don't know, this is actually the time in my life for me and my guy both, where I'm like, we could do this a little bit better than we could have five years ago. It's not going to be luxurious. No. It's not going to be beautiful.
Starting point is 00:30:18 But the bills are paid. But the bills are paid, and we could get something decent and live in Brooklyn and have a fun time. You could. You could live by me. Where are you? I'm in Brooklyn. Oh. fun time you could you could live by me. Where are you? I'm in Brooklyn We'll offline
Starting point is 00:30:35 Yeah, you guys should come out there I like fun and for someone who cares about stage time. I do and you really do. Well, it was very stupid I was like the last day I was there was like, okay What am I even I had like 12 sets or something like truly unbelievable and it's like at a certain point is there a plateau? 1000% you do not that's a lot. It is a lot you do not need to be doing New York comics And I we don't see I die. No, you don't they're like they're like New York's about stage one like New York's about dinner You're so fucking dinner and a long walk home. You're so fucking right though. New York's about dinner and a long walk home. You're so right. Except me.
Starting point is 00:31:08 There were several times that week where I was like, I would rather go eat seafood than do the three remaining spots that I have. I want to go try a new restaurant. I want to go on a date. Do you know what my favorite night in New York is? What? Date. Dinner date. Cute guy. Dinner date. Fun. Maybe you make out a little bit outside. Date dinner date. Mm-hmm cute guy dinner date fun
Starting point is 00:31:30 Maybe you make out a little bit outside. Of course you're kissing outside. Of course you're kissing outside. It's cold. You're not. You gotta kiss! Then cut the evening short. Don't sleep with him Okay, so you're reinventing the form go meet up with your friends Have a great night with your friends go to a bar or two Maybe do something, you know, go see a movie, do something, see your friends, then re-meet up, text the guy what's going on, and that's a, then meet up, then have sex. That's beautiful and that's so allowed. I'm gonna cry. There's, it's so like Amy, I'm gonna cry thinking about it.
Starting point is 00:31:58 That's beautiful. It is beautiful and that's so accepted in New York. Like there were, there were several times there where I would be with a friend for like four hours and then we would take a six hour hiatus and then get back together after spots. It's like everybody's just around. Everybody's around in the area. When I go home today, I'm going to be home for seven days. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:32:14 I'm not going to fucking get out of my bed for seven days. One of the key differences between New York and LA is when someone says, I'll see you later in New York, it might happen. Yeah, it literally might. Hey. Hey, I love you so much. You'll be lucky if you ever see them again. Exactly. There's a reason I've hung out with you four times. That wouldn't be the case.
Starting point is 00:32:31 Mostly your fault. Yeah. Do you feel that? Yes. I take that on. I take that on. No, it's my fault. I'm bad. I'm bad. I'm bad. Well, I'm a bad hanger here just generally. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:42 Because you have to like, I don't know. When I was- Were you guys your homophobic husband? Yeah. Because you have to like, I don't know. When I was- You guys were homophobic husbands. Yeah. You guys have that going on. You guys have- We have to be at home and he has to be homophobic there. Well, he doesn't give you permission to go out that often, so on the nights that he does.
Starting point is 00:32:56 No! No! We were out the other night, and he's a much- he is a much more introverted person than I am. And uh, but it's so funny because he's such a- he's like a quiet guy, he's a much he is a much more introverted person than I am and but it's so funny because he said he's like a quiet guy he's like a shy guy and I'll bring him around comedians other people who just like can't shut the fuck up and like never let anyone speak if they're not screaming and he was around somebody that I would say he's been around 15 times and at the end of the night the guy was like your husband's really funny I was like yeah
Starting point is 00:33:22 you should let other people talk for like one second you You should shut the fuck up. You should shut up You're so much funnier than you. Yeah, you've never let him say a word. Yeah, it's really insane waiting to hear what he has to say about bi women I'm not allowed to talk to girls He's a regular riot I've got him so blue. I've got rules on where I can go. No! No, I'm kidding.
Starting point is 00:33:49 For everyone listening at home, he's lovely. He's lovely. I am supposed to say that. He doesn't let me look at them. He's lovely. He's holding up a sign to me in the corner of the room that says, say that I'm lovely. He has a knife to chance his neck. Well, all of our guests do that
Starting point is 00:34:06 Hang out chance for five minutes. You'll pull a knife, too You know you know who's got a knife to my neck chance every month when it's time to get paid He's got a knife to my neck everybody who works here when it's time to get paid That's the worst guy I've ever seen my entire life He's at the store every night He's at the store every night. He kills at the cellar Yeah, sorry, I'm about to say something yeah, I've never been to prison, but I've got a wife Sorry, I'm about to say something. Yeah, I've never been to prison, but I've got a wife
Starting point is 00:34:50 So you can say I live with a warning I want to get I haven't done stand up in a minute, but when I get back to it I think I want to take on an affect like that God Tim is so funny. He's so good at everything put that picture on screen in the actual episode. That's so fucking funny Sorry, I went there Blinking is insane actually, and I think that's one so you came up with. So what do you think is going to happen to our country? Bad. You think? Bad. You're from the south.
Starting point is 00:35:29 I'm from the south. You're from Tennessee. Yes. And you're a liberal girl. Yes, very. Even a leftist, I would say. Yes, yeah. Even to go so far as.
Starting point is 00:35:37 Very, very left politic. And I'm sure you have some Republican family. Everyone. Everyone except for my mother. What do you think? What are we going to do? How do we do it? So I've been, me and my father are done fighting.
Starting point is 00:35:46 I don't, we just, we had it for years. He fucking, I'll challenge him on everything, but it's like, I'm not gonna waste my time. Me and my brother spend nine hours a day texting each other and arguing about Elon Musk. I'm serious, this is where I'm putting all of my creative energy. I haven't written a joke in a month and a half.
Starting point is 00:36:01 Cause I am just railing against my brother all day. And he's saying things, he's one of those people who's people is like loves a troll just loves to get a argument going. He's bored. I'm bored It's the middle of the day. I don't have a job anymore You know, I'm just locked in yeah, and then by the end of the day we will have completely Just come right back to the start and he's just saying something hateful and awful and it's driving me insane Yeah, but I also think he's like he's one of the few people I know who's like musk good and I can't, there's nothing, there's like no, I have no recourse for that. I can't, if you're starting with like that guy's good and it's
Starting point is 00:36:33 right that he's doing all this stuff, I don't, I don't know. I don't know what to tell you. Elon Musk has single-handedly, we were making so much progress on Autistic People. I know and then he- We were making so much progress, we were like it's fine if bright lights scare you. Yes! We were getting so cool. You don't know what to do with your face? Me neither.
Starting point is 00:36:50 That's fine. Oh, no worries. Numbers can be fun, or whatever the fuck. We were getting there with them. Oh, why is that up so high? Stuff like that. No, train sets. We were getting there with autistic people.
Starting point is 00:36:58 Yeah. Can you not scratch your leg like that? Yes, fine. Elon just tanked the autism stock and meet with the fucking little jumps he's got our social security now he has every single piece of our data hello is anyone is anyone worried about this? is anyone worried about this? he's hiring 19 year old nazis
Starting point is 00:37:22 19 year old little nazi. To go through our finances. Uh huh. And they're cutting, they're cutting, also this is the thing I don't get about these guys is they're going, they're going, Oh, we have an America First agenda. Hilarious. We're not going to be stopping AIDS in other countries. It's like, they're cutting funding to AIDS. Hey, guess what happens if that gets out of control, dumb fuck.
Starting point is 00:37:40 You dumb idiot. It comes over here too. And then you, and then we're not going to care about it here? You've already taken down half the fucking websites about everything. Also the website scrubbing. It's so strange to me. Because I did, I think they literally removed every single federal website that made any mention of diversity, inclusion, accessibility.
Starting point is 00:37:58 Like they just scrubbed. It's unbelievable. Here's my theory that I've been thinking about a lot. These guys have weird dicks, right? Totally. Right? Every billionaire has a weird-looking dong. Totally. Egg-shaped. We saw it with Abstein. It looks strange, right? Yeah. I think that once you reach a billion dollars, I should be able to see it. You're dick. Mm-hmm. And I think it should be his profile picture on X. Yeah. So that every time he's doing something terrible and tyrannical and racist and Nazi shit,
Starting point is 00:38:27 I at least get to go, weird little dingy though. I think so. And I wanna see Bezos's, I'm sure it's weird. I'm sure it looks like his face. Totally. I think that's my right as American. If I have to hear about you every, yeah, to see their weird little peen.
Starting point is 00:38:40 If I have to hear about you every day, if you have my social security number show me your car It's your dick. Yeah, mm-hmm interesting. That's really interesting Cool cool man cool man. Well fuck or this was fun I truly at this juncture cannot believe that I have to hear about these men every day of my life You know what I mean, and that's the rest of our country. That's the rest of the democracy Do you want to hear about my hopium? Do you want to hear about my hope core? Yes, please You want to hear about why I feel so hopeful? Yeah
Starting point is 00:39:17 This isn't going to work Yes, they're doing is not going to work. It will collapse in on itself I feel really like they're most people I really think most people are not racist. I really think most people given given the actual confronted with an actual person different than them. Most people are like, hey man, how's it going? 100% I think most people are nice. Yep. I think most people are normal. Yep. I think that this will backfire. Yep. All this shit that they're doing right now. They're drumming up the bass and this shit that they're doing right now,
Starting point is 00:39:48 they're drumming up the bass and they're getting it. They're making it so exciting for all these misguided people who are interested in whatever the fuck they're doing. Yes. But I don't think it's gonna work. It can't. And then on the other side of it, I think there's gonna be a real opportunity for people like us who are actually pro working class, who are not racist and evil, who don't hate immigrants for no fucking reason.
Starting point is 00:40:04 No reason at all. Who like trans people and love trans people, but there's gonna be a window for people like us, which is not the Democrats by the way. The Democrats are not as bad, but they're fucking also stupid and fumbling. They're so stupid and they're so ineffectual and they just have been for too long. I think there's gonna be a window for people like us to come in and say, okay, here's a real plan Yeah, here's a pro immigrant pro trans pro gay pro worker Cuz the thing is like a farmer in Iowa has way more in common with a trans woman in LA
Starting point is 00:40:33 Oh my god anything with a billionaire and finally like I have been more than I have in the past several years It's like the rise of this has happened I have been seeing so so so many working class white people just being like, hey buddy, like you've been misguided, you've been lied to. And let me tell you why and how, and let me tell you how this hurts agriculture in every way, our jobs, our livelihoods, our families.
Starting point is 00:40:55 And this is a grift. Like you can admit that you don't have to like apologize, but you can admit that you've been misled by this group of people. Not for nothing, not just working class white people, working class black and Hispanic people as well. Yes, oh, 100%. The right is making a lot of gains with those people.
Starting point is 00:41:08 I know, it's, yeah. And so as fun as I think it's been for people on the left to go, poor white people bad. Yeah. Yeah, poor white people are voting overwhelmingly bad. Yeah. But even more than that, middle class white people. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:19 So it's not just poor white people, it's white people in general. Yeah. And then also growingly, Hispanic people and black people as well. Yeah, I know. No, the margins are nowhere near similar. But there's a growth there. And so I think we've been doing ourselves on the left a real disservice by being like, poor white people, what do you need to hear from us? Yeah, that's true. The reality is working people in general, of all races, have got to get an understanding of the fact that like a transgender DJ in
Starting point is 00:41:48 LA is not and an undocumented line cook in Kentucky. These people have more in common with most all of us than you ever will with Elon Musk. Or with anybody making I mean they were looking at the tax plan today, it's like literally under 500K a year, you will be paying more in taxes. So it's like. What's happening to the people over there? They're paying, they're gonna get killed. Hold on, I didn't read that, what's going on?
Starting point is 00:42:17 What happens to gay podcasters who make 20 billion a week? Oh no, Caleb! Am I in trouble? You're in big trouble. You're in big trouble. What if I give away like 100,000? But what if picking at your microphone?
Starting point is 00:42:34 What if I'm, I don't know. What about a gay podcaster who makes $20 billion a week? I really care about people, I think. From MeUndies. And Casper mattresses. Which are extremely comfortable, by the way. Yes, I love a Casper. Wait, that's your camera. Get your camera. And Casper mattresses. MeUndies, a single-handle. Which are extremely comfortable, by the way. Yes, I love a Casper. Wait, that's your camera.
Starting point is 00:42:47 Get your camera. Get your camera, please. I love Casper mattresses. Good night. I know it's crazy. Well, it is working people versus non-working people. It is, but I do think there's a lot of hope that I have that we can make that case. And it's, yeah, it's actually a really easy message.
Starting point is 00:43:10 We just have to find someone on the national level who can make it well. Yeah, truly. You know? Are there people that you, I'm obviously losing hope for the Democratic Party, but it's like, who do we need right now? Who is the person for this moment? I've lost faith in candidates in general. I don't donate to them. I don't promote them. I find it hard to believe I would ever have one on this show. I just don't care about candidates anymore.
Starting point is 00:43:34 I think that stumping for candidates either side, lamest shit you can do. Humiliating, right? Lamest shit in the world. Well, I just had a friend text me about this really cool socialist candidate for an office that I think is really cool and I like his platform, but I'm just like, I don't want to do it because they always let me down. I know. Whether they win or not.
Starting point is 00:43:52 I'm like, I want to focus on causes. If I had to pick a party, I think maybe the, but they have no power, but that's the thing is none of the good ones do. But Working Families Party is very exciting to me. I've read a bunch of their stuff. I like the Working Families Party is very exciting to me. I've read a bunch of their stuff. I like the Working Families Party. I think they're having a lot of the same conversations that I'm trying to have about class and work and things like that.
Starting point is 00:44:12 So maybe them. Yeah. But parties, I don't know. I don't know. It's just not working. Yeah. It's not working. Well, and it's like, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:44:20 I'm done with the Democrats. I'm done with the Democrats. I mean, it is hysterical. The failure and the refusal to change in any meaningful way. They're already talking about midterm They're already talking about pushing their messaging further to the center for the rights like have we done nothing have we made absolutely no progress here? Someone's doing that. Yeah. Yeah, and they're winning against you To the extreme You fucking morons
Starting point is 00:44:42 You fucking idiots. I can't I cannot fucking believe fucking annoying. I cannot fucking believe it dude. I cannot fucking believe it. It's the least cool shit in the world. You know what I mean? On top of that, on top of it being incorrect, not effective, it's also so fucking lame. Also can we just go down with some fucking dignity?
Starting point is 00:45:00 Can you just try being what you say you are? And just if you lose you can at least hold your head high? Yeah, a little bit. That's the thing with the comma losses We can't even hold our heads high because she was out there every day being like I have a gun She's like she's like I have a gun frankly. I'm a cop and Liz Cheney will be my vice president What? When the gun thing happened I was like I truly I thought so I was like what voter was that for? My Glock?
Starting point is 00:45:24 What? I got my Glock? What? I got my Glock in my hand. You're like, what are you talking about? I was like, is there, I love thinking about like a farmer in Iowa being like, I didn't like that strong black woman. Yeah. But I love that she's armed. Or her like every fucking time she got an opportunity opportunity being like nobody has done more deportations than me
Starting point is 00:45:47 Hey, this is good. Okay, very good point also Incredible impression twice So you've tested twice I spit everywhere because I was so shocked are you serious on a white guy who can do a comma And were you doing the comma? No No. They passed on me twice. That fucking blows my mind. They passed on me twice. A worse one. This episode of Subtru is brought to you by Booking.com. Booking. yeah.

It's so funny watching your friends start to make money and then the values that change so quickly with the justification. It's crazy. Like just you, you seriously, if you, if you are a comedian who's around other artists that are starting to do well, you will go to a lunch with a friend who's a leftist, and you will hear some version of, well, don't we need good landlords?
Starting point is 01:00:30 It'll be like a week. You look over, they're wearing a hat that says it. You're like, wait. Do you? Hold on. It's not their merch now. You're like, whoa. Good landlords exist.

Yeah landlords they're asking too much they're giving us nothing. Let's also remember how funny it is that I moved
Starting point is 01:01:09 to New York paid an amount of money for a broker's fee that I cannot even explain to you. Like the amount I paid for the broker's fee was in the many thousands of dollars. Oh my God. And then like three weeks later, they banned the brokers fees. And I said, Hey y'all, what happened? Let's set the session up a little earlier in the year next time. Oh no. I'm pretty sure I, I, You paid the last broker fee.
Starting point is 01:01:37 I paid the last broker fee. I got, I caught that woman through December and January. They made you pay so much money that we were like, they were like, we don't need these anymore. They're good. Her kids are going to college. Caleb took care of it. Yeah.

The way you guys treated me last month, you can go to jail for now. The Caleb Heron law. We robbed this guy blind. And that's not right. They took a look in the mirror. You made them come to jail. You gave them so much money. They
Starting point is 01:02:13 said, guys, we can't keep doing this to people. He said, if you're his party, he's just a comedian. What we did to that young gay man. Golly. Golly. Knock it off. Knock it off right now. We can't keep doing this to people. Oh my god. It's like, they're like, yeah, I'm the one that put it over the edge. Not like the like immigrants that they fuck out of like school money for their children. No, no, no. It was me that they were like, no guys, it's not right. Do y'all see that white comedian that we did that to?
Starting point is 01:02:40 Come on, he podcasts so hard. He's riffing into oblivion this guy. He's this guy studio coming up with all kinds of things to talk about He's got his guests most people go with like, you know famous people but he's got just having his friends on Most people go with like, you know, famous people, but he's got just having his friends on. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's from Titty God. He did have Titty God on though, did you see that? Did you see that? Everyone's like, oh, we love her.
Starting point is 01:03:09 It's just me and Glo, we're like hanging out in the... Laura, what's giving you hope? What's making you feel happy? Tell me that. Ooh, I think, I mean, we touched on it a little bit. The kind of impending doom that we're feeling, and you just made me feel a lot better about it actually, that it's too dumb to succeed, where they won't actually wreck our whole country. But there is something that's happening as a result
Starting point is 01:03:33 of that where I'm just like happy. You know what I'm doing? I'm being very forgiving of myself. I'm a very shameful, guilt-ridden person. And I'm doing less of that because I'm like, listen, you're on the right side of stuff, you're gonna try your best and don't just give yourself shit all day every day. Are you accompanying that grace with some work as well? Yeah. You mean like on me or content? Like on content. Are you producing enough content? Are you at least putting out reels? Are you at least putting out reels while you're easy on yourself? I love that you're giving yourself a good time and an easier time, but... Hey, I love that you're not being so hard on yourself, but can you at least put out
Starting point is 01:04:10 a TikTok every day? Views are down. Yeah, views are down and we need them. No, here's what I would say. Everybody give yourself more grace, yes. But everybody, this is for the people listening, everybody find something to work on. To help, yes. Find something to work on. Cause I do think there is a problem
Starting point is 01:04:27 with a lot of white people. A lot of white people are going, you know what? This is about me. I'm gonna take care of me. 100%. I'm gonna stop being so hard on myself. 100%. Here's what I would tell a lot of especially
Starting point is 01:04:37 moneyed, cis, white, straight, privileged white people. Maybe be a little harder on yourself. Yeah, that's true. You just fucking clocked me so hard. Cause I don't know what that's you. Cause I don't know what you do, but I'm saying, I will say, I am working on not making myself so crazy about all of it. I am reading less. Straight up.
Starting point is 01:04:52 I'm going to read less of the news. Period. I agree with that. There are going to be bad things that happen to people that I'm not reading about. Yeah, that I don't hear about. And I'm not going to. Okay? But I am.
Starting point is 01:05:00 I do know my little parts. I do know where I'm giving time and money and resources. I do have my little sector of the world that I'm trying to make better. And that at least makes me feel a little better about being less hard on myself. I do have some friends, most of them white women, because the men didn't care in the first place. Most of them white women who are pretty privileged
Starting point is 01:05:20 in the world, you know, they've got couch jobs. And they're going, you know, I'm just, I'm not gonna beat myself up over it. And I'm thinking, I'd like you to beat yourself up a little. Okay, these are, I wanna talk about this. Cause I wrote down on my phone the other day, like the most self-involved person you've ever spoken to your entire life,
Starting point is 01:05:38 being like, this year's about me. And it's like, when was it, were you donating most of your time before this? I really don't think. What were you doing? What were you doing that was so selfless to begin with? I'm very allergic to that person. I also, when I like, I think the only place
Starting point is 01:05:53 or despair or whatever, or like shame, guilt, whatever, all of this shit, the only thing that lifts you out of that is being productive in some way for another person, for anybody else. So you're exactly right. I'm allergic to that girl. I hope I'm not that girl. I hope I'm not that girl. I don't wanna be that girl.
Starting point is 01:06:06 But I also am like, there's so much opportunity. We live in these major cities where it's just like, oh, ice is fucking everywhere. Go volunteer, go find people that you can actually help, go get to know your neighbors a little bit, and don't just sit around and self pity. Yeah, that's massive. Also, well, yes, because I'm finding,
Starting point is 01:06:24 I think that hopelessness is a privileged person's disease. It is. The number of privileged people I'm talking to that are going, it's just hopeless. I'm hopeless. And I go, why don't you go create some fucking hope then? Yeah. Because you have money and time. Yeah. And you know who doesn't have money and time to create hope? The fucking undocumented people that are getting yanked out of the restaurant you go to every week.
Starting point is 01:06:41 One thousand percent. So I think it's a balance. I think, yes, we need to I think joy is a very critical part of surviving times like this. I think joy is so important. And I'm, I'm not kidding when I say I am very happy. I do want there to be joy. I do want to have fun with my friends.
Starting point is 01:06:55 I do want to acknowledge that like joy, it is necessary to have joy in any successful movement. God knows they're having fun doing what they're doing over there. Oh, they're having the time of their lives. We have to have fun. But I don't want that to be confused for apathy and laziness. Yes, 100%. You know, 100%. I also don't want to be there's this there's this thing that I'm very weary of that I don't want to be I don't want to be marketed as like the the moral comedian, you know, like the good guy because I don't want
Starting point is 01:07:24 to do I care about stuff. But I'm like because I don't want to do I care about stuff But I'm like, I don't want to be like it's like the Ellen DeGeneres disease where she like got she got on I'll never that'll never happen to me because I'm not that clean But there's like a there's like a thing where people attribute a certain thing to you so much Yeah, that it's like then you can never live up to it. It like becomes bigger than you Well that you'll never be afflicted by that because you're very funny You know what? I mean, it's like I don't think you're I don't think you've ever been the type of comic I'm the same way where I'm like, getting your point across is huge and keeping your morals about you when you do
Starting point is 01:07:52 your stand up is huge, but it's like, I'm not waiting for a clap. I don't want a clap. I want you to laugh really, really hard and I want to not sacrifice, I don't want to fucking turn into a right wing grifter like all these these psychopaths. Like some of these guys. Like, la-da-dee-da-las. So yeah, but it's like, you do that very effectively, I think. Thanks to you. Yeah, the separation of the funniest first. Yeah. And then, I mean, listen, you know what you're talking about.
Starting point is 01:08:16 And you're a... Do you... thank you. That's very nice. But do you find... I don't really worry about becoming a right-wing grifter because that requires such a level of evil. No, it's terrifying. But there's actually this worst thing that I kind of fear that I wonder if you ever think about where I'm like I don't worry about becoming a right-wing grifter because I know that I actually don't think I just don't think I'm capable of that Level of evil. I really don't and and I've just like discord inside of your own soul. Yeah
Starting point is 01:08:38 Like I'm like I actually don't think I have that within me that's not to say I'm an angel But I don't have that you certainly know but I do worry about becoming a complacent centrist. Or not even a complacent centrist, but like a limousine liberal or something, where it's like, there's a complacency that I see with people who really do have good values and really do care, but because their shit's locked down and they're gonna be okay,
Starting point is 01:09:00 I do watch some very good people just become like, well, you know. Do you do you do you mean comics? Do you mean people like artists people they're making art? I think artists. Yeah, I think artists and not even just that I also mean people who have like really good day jobs Mm-hmm. I've got a couple friends making a hundred hundred thirty hundred forty K a lot of money Yeah, you know living in the Midwest and and they've got good values and we march together at all the things and you know it's a little different there because they don't have there's a specific thing that happens with artists where the criticism of everything starts to kind of stop once
Starting point is 01:09:33 they get successful yeah because now they know these people well yeah now they know these people and now they're on such a larger platform where they're like you know I have been I've been about my business or I've been moral in this exact way for a really long time and I've used that as like a boon not a boom But like a part of me that people know publicly Yeah, and to see that shut down in the face of like getting bigger is crazy to me. Yeah, I see happen to stand up a Ton and everybody has their own, you know, like look, you know You don't want to call out a certain powerful person because maybe they do have a they do give you a job and you do
Starting point is 01:10:04 Have bills to pay and so it is a constant negotiation between like look I'm not gonna be able to help anybody if I'm fucking out of house and home at 100% you know but at the same time I don't there's nobody gets to live Blame free under capitalism. I'm I'm sitting on this podcast here in a sec. I probably right at this moment It's gonna cut to an ad of me being like you you know, and I'm not even going to say a brand because we value our sponsors. We do. Thank you.
Starting point is 01:10:30 Thank you. Thank you. But it is like that, that's, I'm working advertising. You know what I mean? That's inherently those companies and those people and the people that that benefits, there's nothing to really like puff your chest out about that. So I'm not trying to come at this from an angle of like, I'm the good right guy who does it all right.
Starting point is 01:10:49 No one gets to come out scot-free from capitalism. No one, no one, no one, no one. We're all marred by this. I'm not trying to be mean to individual people. But I am just like, yeah, at a certain point, the number of artists I know who don't seem to have really much thought at all about who they cozy up to as long as it benefits them And these aren't my friends. These are just people I encounter my friends aren't really like that, but I do find it like
Starting point is 01:11:13 Interesting especially as things get so tough. You know, yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Well, I don't know what to do with that. It's never First of all, it's never been more apparent in art. I think. I don't know at what point comedy, especially, went from being like a truly anti-establishment art form. Yeah, it was like- That's the reason it was made, right? Yeah, it was the people's art form. Yes. You're supposed to go up and make fun of the fucking-
Starting point is 01:11:37 Everybody. Now they've got them on their podcasts. Yeah, they've got them all on their podcasts. And it's like, no one, well, strangely, no one's doing the opposite. You don't hear any comics being like, I didn't see anybody perform at convolo rallies. But it's like, I guess the paycheck that they get from these people, or I guess the notoriety that they get
Starting point is 01:11:56 is more important than any art they've ever, but I tried to write so much about this. It was like, you start comedy as an artist. You're like, I'm gonna challenge myself. I'm gonna challenge my own assumptions and my own beliefs and I'm gonna challenge everybody in the room and then you get a few million dollars and you're like I'm gonna see if I could his dick so hard that it came out of my ass. Truly and by the way those guys are also their whole thing is like well wouldn't you if you
Starting point is 01:12:23 had the opportunity and I go no. I would not. No not know not in it actually not in a trillion fucking no, I would not have JD Vance on my Sorry, I don't know what's not fucking clicking for you, but no I would not do that No, you wouldn't do it like you wouldn't like to hold Donald Trump's feet to the fire. No There's a couple things I'd like to see happen to that guy. I'd like to hold several more. None of them are guesting on my podcast. I could list them, but it'll get cut. It's like, no, I would not do that.
Starting point is 01:12:54 Yeah, I know, I know. And I don't think there's ever been a more, also it's like a time, a horrible, obviously, time in America, but a time to really make choices about that kind of stuff. And it has never been more fraught or more apparent that it's like, this shouldn't be popular. It should not be popular to have these people on your podcast. It should not be popular to align with them. It shouldn't be like a thing that you're proud of. And it does make me feel insane.
Starting point is 01:13:18 It's so weird. Because it is. And I also feel like, yeah, I just feel like, you know, not to talk so much about politics, I guess we're pretty deep into it at this point. But I'm like, yeah, I just have been thinking a lot lately feel like, yeah, I just feel like, you know, not to talk so much about politics, I guess. We're pretty deep into it at this point. But I'm like, yeah, I just have been thinking a lot lately about like, I'm actually not gonna be made to feel dumb for caring about people. No, you can't make me do that. I'm not doing it. I love it.
Starting point is 01:13:33 The number of people on the right that are like, their whole thing is like, you know, I watched JD Vance do these interviews where he's like, sorry, I don't want my kids living next to an immigrant. They might be in a gang. I'm like, you will never make me feel stupid or naive for not being like you.
Starting point is 01:13:45 It is hysterical. And we are, we are, I'm glad that we're, I'm so glad that this, I mean, glad. I am relieved in a certain way that this moment is coming at this, like, at my ripe old age, because I'm like, no, I'm so done with people making me feel foolish for shit like that. I'm so, I am so done with people being like, immigrants, shut the fuck up, shut the fuck up. They have a harder life than you have ever even imagined or could imagine for yourself. You are being cruel, cruelty is not funny to me.
Starting point is 01:14:14 It is not cool, it shouldn't be popular. It is a lame ass fucking point of view. And you're right, nobody from this point onward in our lives is gonna look at us and be like, you're actually being foolish. You're being naive. It's like, nope, I'm just not a dickhead. Also, fine.
Starting point is 01:14:27 Yeah, great, great. Okay, I'm dumb. Yeah, yeah. Next. I'm dumb and I have a wonderful life. Fine, I'm stupid and lovely. Yeah, I'm stupid and lovely and a lot of people, I love a lot of people and a lot of people love me. Yeah, I don't believe in borders and I'm actually really like trans people.
Starting point is 01:14:39 I guess I'm a fucking idiot. I guess I'm a huge fool. What now? I guess the trans people in my life are some of the best people I've ever met. I guess I'm a huge fucking moron. I guess you trans people in my life are some of the best People I've ever met I guess I'm a huge fucking more. I guess you're a genius and your kids don't want to talk to you So what now? You're gonna you're gonna die on your deathbed alone You're gonna die in your deathbed alone or with your ugly wife and you're fucking stay here
Starting point is 01:14:56 With your ugly ass wife and you're standing a guy who is literally on the internet being like I Defend this young man who says that race mixing is bad And it's like dude your your what like it goes against every your wife is is an Indian woman That shit like blue. I sorry now I'm just talking so that blew my mind where he was like we can forgive this little doge kid for saying that he thinks that Interracial coupling is bad. Yeah, you know what fuck the kid who said it fuck JD Vance and fuck his wife Yeah, literally fuck all of them. She's complicit. That's it. That's another thing. I'm tired of these right wing guys wives getting passes where they're like She's probably scared to speak up. It's like no she's fucking evil too
Starting point is 01:15:33 And so fuck that bitch as well They fucking do it with Melania all the time where they're like look at how fed up she is with him. I'm like what? Yeah, she probably hates his ass of course. He's a repugnant human being but she's stuck around She's like rubbing his shoulders while he writes executive orders She's like trans people don't exist Fuck and all these people like yeah the the people that are trying to take pity on JD Vance's wife fuck that bitch Ridiculous it is ridiculous, and it's infantilizing and it's sexist. Yeah, actually I'm pro-women because I hate her And it's infantilizing and it's sexist. Yeah, actually I'm pro-women because I hate her
Starting point is 01:16:11 It's stupid she has autonomy she could have left him it would have had a big impact at any juncture She could have made a show to America by being like this guy fucking sucks And he doesn't stand up for me And he doesn't stand up for her children and he's a weak little spineless piece of shit And I'm out and I'm out and I would have praised her for that I don't praise her for sitting up. I don't praise her for standing like she can't do it now though That's the other thing is we have to, yeah, we can't let them back in after too long. How do you mean?
Starting point is 01:16:28 Like if she had done the big stand, what I don't want is for her to think in a couple years that she can come back over. Right. You know what I mean? Normal people will have back any time. Yeah. Regular working class people will have you back any time. Oh, any moment, any moment.
Starting point is 01:16:40 But people that were like figureheads of the right wing movement, I'm like, we're not having you back. No, it's not going to happen. You've got to go to jail. You're on the fucking dais at the inauguration. We've got to keep a jail open for you. You made a big choice.
Starting point is 01:16:51 It is so fucking infantilizing that they do that with the spouses of these horrible men. It drives me insane. It really is stupid. Every time. And it's always, they're never doing it to like Sarah Huckabee Sanders' husband. Exactly. It's misogyny and it's always the women that they're like that leftist people are like Well, who even knows what she thinks? I'm like I can tell you exactly what she thinks and it's what he thinks
Starting point is 01:17:09 Yeah, she's married to him you fucking psycho Yeah, it's not like she's like like threw her hat in the ring the moment that he was gonna be VP or something I was like she's been around this toad for long enough. She's also a loser Like what I also yeah, I found it kind of I kind of found it same thing with the ads that were like, your husband doesn't get to go in the voting booth with you. I'm like, these people are getting horny on this. That was first of all, the overt sexuality of those ads was extremely confusing to me. What the fuck are you talking about? I'm making eyes at the woman
Starting point is 01:17:40 above the thing. I'm like, we just go fucking about it. That's what those ads are about. Are you also a Democrat? I'm gay. Yeah. That was so infantilizing though. It was just like, you don't have to tell your man. Are there people, are there like really far right guys in America who are, you know, abusive and violent? Of course, but it's like, that shouldn't be the, the message should be like, you should be able
Starting point is 01:17:59 to talk to your husband about who you're fucking voting for or else you shouldn't be in a marriage with him. What are you talking about? Hello. What are you talking about?
