so you better calm down
I love it
you guys want to do coke
it's weird
you guys aren't doing coke
so we're just doing beers then
yeah
the silence
the mastery of it
it takes a
dude
an eagle's tailgate
So we're only doing beers huh
Just beers for that
Yeah
Just the mild disappointment
Yeah
For my nose
You'd be having the best time
In the world
Someone's like
So we're just gonna do this then
What do you mean
Is there more
Yeah
Some dude's looking
For reception
In a different parking lot
Trying to call his guy
Yeah
Yeah we're in the jet show
Come down in the Jetro lot.
11B.
Dude, shout out to Finback.
I had a meeting with them,
and they gave us a shitload of free beers.
Nice.
Good brewery.
We might have a collab.
We might do a collab.
Stuff Island IPA is in the talks.
Yeah.
I have to put together a little presentation.
You got to do a PowerPoint?
No, I got to give them selling points
as to why it would be
advantageous for those guys to
collab. What about this? Stuff ILPA.
Like island, but then switch
it to the IPA. No. Okay.
It sounded better up here. It did.
No, it's cute. It's cute, but then you lose the whole
stuff island. Sure.
Two weeks later, stuff island.
It's like when you get shit-faced and you try and say the name,
it runs you.
Stuff island.
That's a terrible idea we'd never use.
By the third one of these, you're going to be saying it.
Yeah.
That is probably the best bet for my health.
I feel like shit.
A big fuck you to the Eagles organization.
First off.
This is a new segment.
Big fuck you.
Fuck you.
Losing to the Jets.
Four turnovers, a missed field goal, and I lost $1,200.
What?
I bet $1,200.
I started texting fucking Roan and Smitty from Barstool.
I'm like, the line did six and a half.
This doesn't make any sense.
Am I wrong? Am I wrong?
They're like, no, you're not wrong.
Fire away. I'm also a grandin.
Oh my God.
What a
fucking shit show.
That defense, man. Their defense is great.
Don't get me wrong. Their defense is stout.
But they didn't have their fucking star
cornerback. We were going to eat them up. Yeah, the Jets didn't have their fucking star cornerback.
We were going to eat them up.
Yeah, the Jets don't even have the quarterback.
Yeah.
No, they don't even have.
Yeah.
He had a good game for him.
Mm-hmm.
And then Hurts decided to fucking, I don't know, switch teams.
Yeah.
Through three fucking picks. Lane Johnson went down.
Yeah, Johnson's down.
God damn it.
Yep.
This is that time of year.
Well, this is when
the fucking...
Everyone gets hurt.
The Eagles go in the trunk
like the youngest son
and the fucking
the Phillies sit up front.
You put the wife
in the back seat.
That's nice of them.
It's Phillies.
Yeah.
They don't want to take
too much of the shine
from the Phillies right now.
That's admirable.
Fuck. And then it'll be a great comeback story the rest of the shine from the Phillies right now. That's admirable. Fuck.
And then it'll be a great comeback story the rest of the winter.
Meanwhile, the Giants are already done.
It's already over.
I wore my satin Eagles jacket to a New York bar.
That's tough.
Only to hear constant jeering from Jets.
I was screaming like, yeah, at least we don't have a 9-11.
It was like bad.
What?
Yeah, I started saying weird shit because I was getting real fired the fuck up. First off. jets i was screaming like yeah at least we don't have a 9-11 it was like bad what yeah i started
saying weird shit because i was getting real fired the fuck up first off i shook hands on the way out
saying thanks for letting me share your table we all have 9-11 yeah it was a national tragedy
really 9-11 is all yeah you go to hawaii you're like you guys got fucking pearl harbor
yeah at least we protected our ships.
You fucking lose it.
I don't know.
Somebody once said to me,
your city sucks so hard,
terrorists wouldn't even fuck with it.
That's great.
Could you imagine if Philly got hit in 2001?
Yeah.
People would be like, whew.
I mean, the buildings weren't even high enough.
They would crash trying to hit might not
make the paper it's like pittsburgh in the 1800s oh no liberty one went down
which is all half a mall which no one's ever in it's a fucking it's a weird plaza express yeah
it has any ends and fucking gap and a structure
that doesn't even exist anymore.
How are you, Feeny?
I'm great, man.
Thanks for having me.
It feels good to hang out with you guys.
See you guys.
We had a fun time at Skankfest.
We always did, yeah.
Skankfest really, no matter how long we go
without seeing each other, Skankfest,
it just kind of feels like we all,
kind of the group, as I call it,
between, I feel like ever since Skankfest Houston,
we all sort of, between like Butterly and us and Cannonank Fest Houston, we all sort of between like Butterly and us and Cannon
and Sagalovini, it all kind of just
melds together. Whenever you see each
other's face, it's like finally getting to a rest stop
when you have to piss. It's just like a comfort.
You know what I mean? Where it's like,
I know I'm safe. I don't know why.
I also feel like Cannon
and Sagalovini are always hiding
somewhere.
And I always run into you guys when i'm also looking to
hide it's like it's like when you play hide and go seek and like thanksgiving or something you
like open the cabinets under the sink and like someone's like i'm in here yeah yeah you got room
i feel like every time i ran into you guys you were like high as fuck also trying to just separate
yourself from the pack for a little bit yes yeah it was such a pleasure to see you guys
because it was a weird amount of
comedy drama this
time, which felt like some high school shit.
What was that? I missed that.
It was multiple groups of people
fighting one another and people wanting
to fight. There were some Philly
guys trying to fight. Things were really
getting out of control.
We weren't in that
right state. You, by the way way had maybe my favorite moment of all of skank fest what did i do i don't
know if you remember was i there yeah i mean physically yes uh we were leaving one of the
nights you know whatever it was like 1 a.m 2 a.m or something and you had gotten like a drink like
a little whiskey that you had that we were taking to go. And then like, right as we walked out,
some fan,
like just like slammed into you and you got your,
your whiskey went,
like it went all over you and you were livid.
And I could see,
not only were you mad because you just lost your drink,
but it's like literally all over.
And you were so pissed.
And me knowing you at all,
I'm like,
this is going to be like, this is going to be.
Explosive.
This is going to be explosive.
And this is also going to lead to a series of events the rest of the night where Tommy's going to be on edge.
And like, it's like things that, you know, everyone kind of is quiet.
This is 9-11.
Yeah.
So I literally, it's like a powder keg moment here that we're watching and i see you uh you're
like wiping yourself off you're like motherfucker all this kind of stuff and i go oh dude that sucks
and you go you see this and you you have your hand near your pocket and you reveal in your hand
you have two high chews those little candies he you see this? It ain't all bad.
And then you winked at me.
They weren't even edibles, right?
They were just candy? No, they were just candy.
But I thought for sure you were about to be like,
this motherfucker, fuck this place, let's go fuck.
And the fact that you turned around
and were in a great mood and just going,
it ain't all bad, and winking at me was,
and you did it just to me.
No one else saw it.
It was the funniest thing I had ever, I laughed for hours. I i think i was just so genius i gotta start carrying around some of those
nerd balls just in case you get in a fight with the bartender i'd be like
dude on every level start throwing them towards the door
no they're nerd clusters you ever had a nerd cluster Ansel and Gretel? Fuck you.
Is that a high tube thing?
No, they're nerd clusters.
You ever had a nerd cluster?
Knock your socks off, pal.
They're on fucking real.
I'm listening.
They're unbelievable.
Just a gummy center.
With a gusher wrapped in nerds.
Covered in nerds.
On every level, it was the definition of comedy
It was like a surprise
I didn't expect you to be a high tube guy
I didn't expect you to have candy
I didn't expect you to not be mad about the whiskey
Just everything about it
I'm glad I surprised you
It was perfect
I think I was just fucking tired of everything
I was so tired of all the shit
I didn't have anything left
I got sick
You got sick.
You got sick?
Yeah, I ate a Starbucks sandwich.
I missed my first show, which was one of the best shows.
It was like Ron White.
It was a nice lineup.
And I went downstairs, ate a Starbucks sandwich,
and pissed out my ass for three hours straight.
That's how I started.
That was day one after the first night's party.
And then I just ran myself into the fucking ground for three days.
I don't think I'm doing, I'm not doing.
The whole time.
The whole time anymore. It's too much.
It's simply too much.
Thursday to Monday is crazy.
I know.
And you're fucking on the whole time.
It's like going to a work conference.
It's like 14 hour days.
Yeah.
It's a lot.
And it's like on day two when you're like well the only way to feel
better is to start drinking again you're like okay this is kind of fun but on day four yeah
where you're like the only way to feel better is to keep drinking yeah like this is my only goal
this time was to not lose my voice because i always lose my voice by like saturday night
every single time and this time i kept it the whole way, but it took a lot of substance
to really balance out everything.
Would you do acid shrooms?
We did mushrooms the first night.
We did Molly,
which I haven't done Molly
in eight years, I think.
But it was only because the people
who took it the day before didn't die.
Fentanyl now terrifies me to the point where I'm like,
I was good with never doing Molly ever again.
And then,
and then a little acid.
Yeah.
On the last night as well.
Then a quick little eight hour tip.
What?
The concert,
whatever it's called.
The goddamn comedy gym.
Yeah.
We were like,
that's when we were on acid.
And it was,
it was crazy.
Cause that's,
you know,
they performed in that ring,
which is, you know, it's like a wrestling,
it's like bouncy.
So it's like people were,
when they brought all the comics on stage,
everyone was jumping up and down,
and the whole thing,
like the drum set was moving,
and it looked like at any moment it was just classically going to collapse inside.
And it was like Butterly and Sagalow and Canada,
just a bunch of people that were on
acid just at one point we recognized the danger of it we worried for a sec and then we decided
tim actually turned to us and just said let's fucking break this ring and then we just started
jumping like as hard as we can in an effort to destroy and have everything fold in and uh to the
ring's credit it held up well i didn't, I didn't go. I didn't go.
Were the instruments...
They were on in the ring.
On the people.
But they took down the turnbuckles and the ropes.
It was just the bass as a stage.
But it was literally...
People were holding the piano down
so that the guy could play it.
There was way too many people.
I mean, there must have been 65 comics on the stage.
What's the weight limit on that?
Apparently, at least one more person than what it held because it didn't collapse.
Do they rent that ring?
Is there like a ring rental place?
Of course.
Yeah, I don't think they own it and put it in stores for half a year.
God.
What's the guy look like who rents rings?
Wrestling rings. I don't know. It's a tough
looking guy, I bet. He's got at least
five or six other jobs.
It's gotta be a Zac Amico with a fake wig.
I just imagine him driving that
dog truck from
Dumb and Dumber.
It's just like
that van is doing
a lot of different jobs.
A lot of heavy lifting.
Including towing around kids.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Dog delivery.
That's got to be a bummer.
Trying to molest a kid,
you got to like move turnbuckles and shit.
Yeah.
Well, it's kind of good though.
It keeps them in, you know what I mean?
You can throw them off the ropes,
they land, you know.
Putting giant dog ears on a child molestation van
is a good move.
That's fucking marketing. It's also one of those things where you go obviously that's not the molesting
van because that's it's too odd like no one would suspect it yeah hiding in plain sight yeah exactly
yeah yeah like that's of course they would be crazy to be the molesting man with ears of that
size there's no way yeah i can't take another loss tonight if the phillies don't pull this off
i'll fucking i'll be a problem no more candy in the pocket if the phillies take a fucking out
get the high twos out there's no more in the pocket i will knock out a fucking
and you guys went to the did you guys you guys went to game three yeah yeah that's awesome six
homers dude yeah that was like what a perfect game to go to we were just like it was never close
dude and we went to the world series game we all went to last year they had five homers yeah two
games 11 home runs wild it's unheard of yeah and the post that postseason home run like dude feeling
is like so crazy dude it was so much fun.
Everyone's jumping on a ring, dude.
The whole place is...
It's the closest thing to a football playoff that baseball can get.
Yeah.
There's no other thing like it in baseball.
Dude, when they started doing the chop,
they started doing like the whole stadium started doing the Atlanta Braves chop.
It was so funny.
God.
They're really,
they're a really likable team.
I mean,
it's,
it's,
it's wild to watch.
Like I,
I'm like a Yankees fan.
So like the Phillies aren't like a nemesis to me at all.
You know what I mean?
Like I,
so I,
but I,
I really enjoy watching them this season.
It's been fun.
Yeah.
They're kids,
dude.
It's like,
you see them in the locker room afterwards.
You're like,
Oh yeah,
I forgot.
They're 23 years old.
Except every Yankee fan is going like all of my Yankee Twitter is just lamenting the Bryce Harper.
You know, they keep pulling.
Every time Bryce Harper gets a hit, let alone a home run in the postseason,
they just pull up that Brian Cashman quote being like we have when he was a free agent
and just only wanted to be a Yankee his whole life.
And they put up Brian Cashman's quote was like, we have no room for Bryce Harper.
We have six outfielders, Clint Frazier, Miguel Anduar, Aaron Hicks.
They need like five people that don't even, aren't even in the sport anymore.
And then they were like, and Judge.
So we got no room for him.
They didn't even have a fucking phone call.
This is him coming out of Washington.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Not even the draft.
All he ever wanted to do was be a Yankee. That was his
whole thing. They didn't even have a meeting with him.
They didn't even take a tertiary meeting with
Bryce Harper because they had just gotten Stanton.
It was like the biggest
ice cold takes
age terribly of all time.
Well, I'm glad they did that because I feel like that probably
injected some real energy
into his veins when he joined the Phillies.
For sure.
It would have been perfect. That swing like the history of the flyers organization is like
every time we let someone go they become an absolute all-star he would have hit 70 homers
out of that that short porch he's like every year he's like exactly what we needed which is a left-handed
power bat with like an edge you know what i mean like kind of like we instead we settled for like
josh donaldson you know what i mean when he's 39 years old well fuck the yankees too yeah i fuck the phillies you
know yeah everybody can catch it tonight i'm i don't feel well they lost to the jets they needed
they needed to lose one yeah they needed to lose one problem is it was it was such a bad loss on
jalen hurts his part that now i now I'm listening to the journalist saying
there might be a problem here.
It's bleeding into my skull, whereas before I'm like,
look, they're working out some kinks here.
He's still putting up incredible numbers.
Last night was, I don't know what the fuck, who that was.
If you unzipped him, he was like fucking Ty Detmer.
Like, you know what I mean?
He took off his black skin.
Just three kids on each other's shoulders.
It's just three terrible high school quarterbacks on each other's shoulders.
Yeah, it was fucking terrible.
I couldn't even watch SportsCenter.
I get nauseous.
But that's how spoiled I am right now.
Dude, you're going to focus on playoff baseball.
That's such a a rare hard feat,
you know?
True.
Give me that hat.
Let Jalen Hurts worry
about Jalen Hurts.
There you go.
You know?
Damn, dad.
Yeah.
There he is.
This is the ball cap
that won us the last series.
You understand?
It's so funny.
I got my pants on.
I got the fucking,
that's my rally towel that's going to go on my top I got my pants on. I got the fucking, that's my, that's my rally towel.
That's going to go on my top pocket on my,
my,
my,
my cord shirt.
Everything's going back on.
Yeah.
All right.
The way I've been doing it is I,
I I'm drinking beers.
Whenever they score their first run,
I stopped drinking that beer and I just put it to the side.
That's it.
Till when?
Till the game's over.
You just get another drink?
Yeah. And then I get another drink till the yeah and then
i get another drink wow you just stop drinking one beer yeah whatever i stopped drinking the
drink where they score their first run and i just set that aside and do not this is so crazy i love
it yeah yeah because that's that's what well that was that's what i did at the bombs away game oh i
had i had a beer and i had peanuts on it at game three. And I was so nervous.
I was just standing watching the at-bats because the Braves had just gone up one.
Castellanos jacks one.
And I was like, I'm not touching anything.
I don't vape while they're at bat.
That's hilarious.
And I don't move the drink where they scored their first run.
How did you be a Phillies fan?
You're from Connecticut, right?
Yeah, yeah.
So you should be Yankees or Red Sox.
I was Mets growing up,
and then I lived in Philly for 20 years.
And then I still do like the Mets.
My family's all Mets.
That's hard to be Mets Phillies, dude.
Yeah, yeah.
Once you live in Philly that long,
it just becomes part of it.
I get being Philly,
but then you gotta be like,
no more Mets.
They're fucking, they're rivals. The only thing I get being Philly, but then you've got to be like, no more Mets. They're fucking
rivals. The only thing I'm
living on now is that the Yankees have the most recent
postseason win of the AL East,
because all three teams in our division all
made it to the postseason. They all got fucking swept.
So now, any Blue Jays fans
who's chirping me, I'm like, we got the last win
a year ago. It's crazy what happens
in wildcard, dude.
You almost don't want that long time off.
Those two weeks off have been proven to fuck
a lot of these top run or top win teams.
Dodgers.
Dodgers got swept.
Orioles.
Orioles won one, maybe.
Got swept.
It's crazy.
Well, that's the thing.
It's like you want to be hot going into the postseason.
And when you're fucking 14 games ahead,
it's like,
you haven't played a meaningful game,
not only in the last month,
but probably in the last like two months.
Yeah.
It doesn't mean anything.
You've just been like cruising in and everyone else has been fighting and
scratching and clawing.
Yeah.
So it's like,
if there are,
if they're streaking,
it's like,
you're just going to run into a bus.
The same thing with Phillies now.
Like I would never think our bullpen could last as far as long as the NLCS
alone.
But if your aces are
spinning 6-7,
you're fucking golden, dude.
You don't need...
Kimbrel really can try his best to blow games, too, though.
He really makes it interesting
for no goddamn reason.
Alright.

like, I got Hulu
on my phone through Disney
or something, but then I also have a separate
Hulu account, and it's all fucking
chaos. It's
2023,
and it appears that we
can't buy things anymore? Oh, we only

Zero net carb noodle
It's skinny makes you feel fuller for longer
Because the pasta
Is empty carbs
A healthy serving of fiber means
Zero net carbs.
Skinny on calories.

Conventional pasta has a recommended serving size of 2 ounces,
which brings 200 calories.
Mostly empty carbs coming along with it.

Have they talked about that?
I've never heard that.
If it wasn't for that insane catch
in center field, the whole That's so funny. I've never heard that. It's amazing. If it wasn't for that insane catch in center field,
I mean, the whole series might have changed.
But shout out, shout out Rob,
the manager for fucking putting Kimbrel in seventh.
Oh, yeah, dude.
Rob Tom.
Badass move.
Yeah, like Rob.
Shout out Rob.
That's my friend Rob.
I thought you were going to say the manager of Barstool.
Forget it.
No, no, no, no.
I'm saying to put Kimbrel in in the seventh fucking badass move bat to just stop the bleeding yeah it's like
that's i love that shit i hate when there's like a critical juncture in a game but it's like early
in the second half and a coach doesn't call a timeout because they want to save it it's like
dude the whole game is this third down right yeah. Yeah. The whole game. It's wild to think that our fans are probably more interested
in the ring story at Skankfest than what we're talking about right now.
By the time this comes out, this will already have happened.
They're like, well, what do you think?
Yeah, go back to the dog.
That was fun.
No, it'll be fun.
I mean, like, I don't want to have a bad omen,
but it would be funny if the Phillies get absolutely destroyed
before this comes out.
Why would you even say that?
You just ruined us all.
That is so fucked up.
No, because it would be funny because they'll be listening to this.
We're going, the Eagles blew it, but at least we still got the Phils.
We'll be all right.
Knowing that we're in total darkness.
You're being a real Met cunt right now.
Dude, the Phillies are the best.
They're going to win tonight.
I'm going to turn this whole attitude around.
I don't feel good, but I think it's because of my nerves.
I act like I'm playing.
I get so anxious and butterflies that I act like I'm suiting up.
Sure.
It's so white trash, and I love it.
Every sports fan is like that. You get that adrenaline of like, dude,iting up. It's so white trash, and I love it. Every sports fan is like,
you get that adrenaline of like,
dude, I just hope that, you know.
They're not like that.
They're not all like that.
You go west, go south, LA.
That's not a baseball city.
They don't even, it's not even a basketball scene.
It's a scene.
Even the Lakers are great, but the people,
they're dog shit, and they're not fans.
They're not true fans. You ever been to a Seattleattle seahawk game they act loud it's not real
oh dude i was real no they're just parents cheering at a fucking kindergarten dance
they don't care they don't get upset they don't fight with their wives dude when i was getting
negative in game game five i was like uh game four i was like i was getting i was like oh god
we're fucked we're fucked and then i was like if you was like, oh God, we're fucked. We're fucked. And then I was like, if you had
this attitude right now and you were at bat, you
wouldn't get a hit. Yeah. How about you
get positive? How about you start believing?
What's hilarious is he's doing this in his
own head and I'll catch
him like staring. I'm like, what are you doing?
Meanwhile, you're giving yourself playoff
pick-me-up talks.
That rules. Yeah, yeah. It's like if you want to hit, you want giving yourself playoff pick-me-up talks. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That rules.
Yeah, yeah.
It's like if you want to clutch hits,
you can't be fucking staring at your shoes.
You got to act like you've been there.
See yourself hitting a home run.
Sometimes I'll walk in here.
Chris has this stance on that couch.
Yeah. And I'll just start laughing and i go dude just you i i can't imagine the mayhem in your skull my caller id for him is a
picture i took when we were in this in the centurion lounge coming back from skank fest
we both got mimosas or drinks and we're just we're sitting there drinking and he's literally we're in a conversation actively and he's just like he's
holding a mimosa going just thinking you caught me looking at the guy next to me's mimosa and how
much better it was
you know what reminds me of like that animatronic
animal band when they're like
the song ends and just like
He's just staring at someone else's drink
Circus town
I was doing that right before the podcast
Yeah I saw you
I was pissed off
I was just looking through Instagram,
and I have an ex-girlfriend from high school.
She's a real LA person.
And so all of her posts have to be put in the context
of world events that are going on.
She can't just be like, had an awesome time in fucking Puerto Rico.
It's got to be like, the events going on in Palestine are really stressing me out.
And I'm with you guys in spirit.
But every once in a while, some light breaks through.
And it's just like them on the beach.
It's so insane.
Why can't you just be like look the fucking english
breakfast this morning was good yeah it doesn't need to be there doesn't need to be like a climate
change awareness thing around women and children are being slaughtered but i'll finish this post
after the spa yeah shut up you fucking idiot no means your message i just need to detox with this
green juice yeah it's like posting a flag for what team you're on everybody knows no it's fraught out there it's fraught with peril out there it is the fucking the war vids are sick
though i mean it's like it's bad it's like a full online war on twitter like twitter unprompted i
don't even follow the hashtags it just is like I open the timeline
shout out Muskie
dude giving us the goods
I mean
it is just
I like woke up
yesterday
open Twitter
and there's just
like child beheadings
happening
and I was like
oh
that's not true
oh
none of that happened
oh gotcha
none of that happened
yeah yeah
still haven't seen
one photograph
open Twitter I'll open Twitter.
I'll send you a few.
Oh, no, it's doctored.
It's been proven it's AI.
Oh, that's a good way to lie.
Do you ever think about that, like with conspiracy theorists?
Oh, yeah.
That there may be, like the guys who were like, Sandy Hook didn't happen.
That was all fake.
That was all crisis actors.
You ever think that like those people specifically are just so incapable of processing trauma
that they have to tell themselves and everybody else that
because the reality is too much for them to bear.
So they're like, no, children didn't die.
It's a fake. It's all fake.
It's like, we see them as monsters,
but you're like, oh, maybe you just have no ability to cope
and understand the horrors of this world.
What you're doing right now is describing God.
The reason people believe in the higher powers
is because they can't process.
Cope with the chaos.
They can't believe that nothing happens.
You just disappear into dust.
Then what?
The last 10 years of your life,
you're sitting like Chris, waiting for death.
Praying for the sweet release.
Sometimes that's my thousand-yard stare.
There's nothing going to happen. Everything online thousand yard stare. Just thinking about that. Nothing gonna happen after this.
Because everything online is just like,
I know about that,
but this is just being used to advance an agenda.
And then someone else is like,
I know that you think that,
but actually when you have the opposite opinion,
it's being used to advance the opposite agenda.
And they're both like, right, kind of.
And it's just like, this is chaos.
Buddy, you just to get the algorithms that
show all the bloody wars fistfights in the street sports my algorithm is fucking flying right now
dude man i saw this great video today i'm in the hov lane going 95
i saw this video today so funny if your algorithm just became AI-produced decapitation.
Really authentic-looking fake horror. First of all, we call that porn on my phone.
And then it's got the Kill Bill found of blood shooting up.
Dude, I saw this video.
It's Marge cutting off Homer's head.
I'll take it.
I saw this video the day of a kid.
It was like a schoolyard where the whole school gathers,
and there's two guys in the middle.
And there must be, I don't know, like 10 years old.
And I don't know if they're having a dance.
I think they're having a dance-off, these two black kids.
And the one kid, he struts up to the other guy.
He picks up his arm, smells his armpit, and then collapses.
Oh, I've seen this.
And it crushes harder than anything I've ever seen in my life.
He's a little black guy, right?
Yeah, he's so cute.
But it's the funniest video of all time.
That other kid is like immediately like self-conscious.
He like puts his arms down.
That's gotta be,
that's gotta be a drunk uncle joke that really hit him hard.
You know what I mean?
Oh yeah.
Like he's too young to pick up that brilliance.
I mean,
it's like a literal,
like it's just a,
you stink line,
but like,
if you have that in,
in middle school,
like Tommy smells and that's like a thing that
circulates you gotta move yeah you do have to move town and you gotta get yourself expelled
yeah because you have too much cologne dude dude my my dad was telling me that my nephew hit him
with one of those he was like uh my my brother wanted my dad to go out on the boat fishing with him.
And my dad was like, I'm not going.
And my brother was like, I'll buy you pizza afterwards.
And my dad was like, all right.
And they were on the boat, and my brother was telling him that story.
And he was like, yeah, Bob's got a real soft spot for pizza.
And my nephew went, yeah, I know.
That rules.
I think you mean from pizza.
It was like crazy.
Like, where the fuck did you learn that?
I feel like I did it to Bobby Kelly on our live pod.
Sorry, I hit you in the ribs.
Yeah, you really pierced the armor.
You got in between the 12th and 11th
right in there yeah you look good dude thanks man the baby uh yeah doing trying to do jujitsu now
and oh right i can't go to ferg anymore unfortunately yeah our personal trainer there
but uh yeah i'm trying it's all that we can do you know try to learn something i guess i just
have to trick myself like you love working out you're fucking you're you're great at it's a part of your life i never had that i've always had like a skinny
high metabolism so there was never that like i gotta work out otherwise i'm fucked like for me
it's just i like i would see people going to the gym in college and literally like not understand
why they were wasting their time i would just play five on five full court basketball that was like
my exercise any sort of like non-traditional weights would be the only...
And Ferg was the first person that I ever was actively interested in the gym.
But then that all went on.
Do they pair you up with other gay dudes?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's all dick-sucking, dude.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Just rolling around?
Yeah, just rolling around, sweating.
It's got to be kind of nice.
Do you use any of the moves while you're fucking?
I got to tell you, there is that thing. you know how like lewis walks around and he's like
shadow boxing you anytime you try to even have a kind of like dude every time i come back from
jujitsu i'm immediately like trying to like fucking take down my wife and she's like just
stop every time i'll like go up behind her like she thinks i'm gonna give her a nice hug and then
i'm like fucking horrible you know it feels uh to put like to get someone to like tap out is is the and i i realized my having
long legs and having incredibly sharp uh bony features is a huge advantage so i'm like my thing
i'm able to do very well is like like to guillotine people like get them in that headlock and then like crank on their neck or get like a, you know, a rear naked choke.
And with my like bony ass forearms,
it feels the best I've ever,
like it's the most masculine I've ever felt in my life.
What would you do if you and I were in a fight?
What's your first move?
I gotta wait.
I'm gonna, see for me, I'm not coming out.
It's just like, this is my mentality,
same mentality I had with dodgeball back in the day.
I didn't have an arm.
I had Johnny Damon's arm, okay?
I can't throw.
I can feel like a son of a bitch, and I'm quick, you know?
So I'm going to wait for you, and then I'm going to try and slip
and bring you to the ground, and then you're fucked beyond belief.
But if it's a stand and bang fist thing.
How much do you weigh?
170.
Yeah.
Yeah, I'd be pretty even.
I'm like 180 now.
Yeah.
Yeah.
A standing bang is not going to be, you're going to, you got me.
Well, that's why I would just try not to.
Yeah.
But it's hard.
But your reach.
Every single fight, I got to reach, every single fight that lasts more than like 10
seconds anywhere always goes to the ground.
Yeah.
Ever.
Because it's so tiring, I mean.
No, like think of any street fight video you've ever seen.
Yeah.
And no one stands up like this for 20 seconds.
The first person swings, the second guy runs in and tackles them,
and then it's just a ground fight.
True.
Yeah, yeah.
They throw, like, a too hard wild kick, and they, like, spin.
Yeah, exactly.
One guy comes in with a fucking, you know,
he's trying to do the street fighter kick.
He's on the ground.
Yeah.
What's the worst thing you've ever seen in a fight?
Like online or in real life?
No, live.
It's my mother's face.
Dude, I mean, I've seen kids get cracked
and then fall back and hit their head on cement and shit
where you're like, that just does such
permanent damage you can't even
begin to...
Some dude got curb stomped in high school.
No way.
American History X style?
Then they're dead. No, they're not dead.
What do you mean? Do they have any teeth?
I mean, I didn't stick around to see
the fucking tomato soup.
That sound in American History X, not even of the thing, I mean I didn't stick around to see the fucking tomato soup that sound
in American History X
not even of the thing
but when they did the extreme close up of the teeth
scraping across it is one of the worst things
yeah yeah yeah
two things that should
never be in contact with one another
yeah yeah
it makes you do this
how do you do that not kill him what
do you do like a it's like a lob wedge kind of thing yeah and also how do you get them to stay
there he doesn't get them to stay there he dies very quickly in the in the movie yeah of course
they do it's easier you got to get rid of that character how ripped is edward norton in that
movie took steroids yeah okay oh, all these stars do.
Sure.
They also have private chefs.
It's not a comparison
between you and him.
No, I get pissed off.
Ryan Reynolds
in Blade Trinity.
I get pissed off with like...
Not enough people are saying
how jacked you are
because
Ed Norton took steroids
in 1996.
He's taking away my tongue.
He's a stolen valve. value yeah this takes three hours a
day for 30 years nor though hello people i ask you like how do you stay in shape at 43 it's like
well you you just have to be sore every day for 35 years it's literally every day it's brutal
you never took anything ever in your life no i took. Yeah, it's not anything. Yeah. That's fine. I never took anything either.
I was built like ridiculous.
I was just all top heavy
and we used to make this joke
about like this one dude
went to the gym
and he was a steroid.
We called him a rooster.
He had like WWE look.
His face was one of the ugliest guys
you can ever imagine.
He's bright red.
Yeah.
And his body just went like this.
Just like two little, it was like a bowling ball on He's bright red. Yeah. And his body just went like this. Just like two little,
it was like a bowling ball
on a fucking chopstick.
Yeah.
A bowling ball on a chopstick.
Dude, it was nuts.
And I kind of had that body
for a while
because it was all push and pull
and I never worked on my legs
until college.
No one wants to do legs, man.
Legs was my only thing
that I ever had
because I used to do,
I did like crew in college.
So that's 95
Of course you did
Legs
Yeah dude
I wasn't a coxswain though
I was fucking
You can't be with that length
Yeah
Coxswains are the little midges
Yeah yeah
They're like jockeys
They're jockeys
Yeah
Yeah they're white jockeys
They are
Yeah
Jockeys I feel like
No they're not
No jockeys are white
They're getting their jobs taken
Like the mid-infidels
Because we're not
That is a real
Are you saying
White people aren't tiny anymore We're still tiny We're just not as good As the brown Because we're not... That is a real... Are you saying white people aren't tiny anymore?
We're still tiny.
We're just not as good
as the brown people.
We're not good at being tiny.
Yeah.
No, yeah.
It was crazy.
And then I had this thing
in my knee,
these loose...
Cartilage?
P-shaped, yeah.
Like plica, it's called.
So basically,
all the movements of it
would make my knee swell.
And they were like,
you could either get
arthroscopic surgery for that or you could just stop doing crew. And I were like, you could either get arthroscopic surgery for that
or you could just stop doing crew.
And I'm like, I don't even know why I'm doing it.
The only reason I did crew to begin with
is because when we were freshmen,
these sophomores on the crew team came by
and were like, we'll take you guys out,
night of drinking, all drinks on us.
We'll buy you guys as much beer as you want for your room.
We'll buy as much liquor as you want for your room.
And we're like, fuck yeah. And then it's like, you know, 40 shots in. They're like buy you guys as much beer as you want for your room. We'll buy as much liquor as you want for your room. And we're like, fuck yeah.
And then it's like,
you know,
40 shots in there.
Like you guys want to do crew?
We're like,
whatever dude.
And they're like,
nice.
Meet us tomorrow at 5am.
And you're like,
you're in the freezing cold,
stepping in goose shit,
trying to bring a boat down onto a lake.
Why did they do the 5am bullshit?
I don't know why it had to be so early,
but that was immediately what made me,
again,
I did it for,
I mean,
almost a year because only because my other roommates did it too so it was kind of like an accountability let's fucking
go but uh the second i had the knee thing i was like oh yeah no i'm i'm done i'm not gonna do
that i've said this before lacrosse is a close second but crew individuals are the most insufferable
athletes it's tough to ever be around yeah it's tough just tall rich kids i never i never felt
like i never even heard of crew before college.
I didn't feel like,
because I used to do track
and I would do high jump and hurdles
and all that shit when I was in high school,
but they didn't have it in my college.
They only had distance running
and they were basically like,
we could do it if you want to be your own coach.
And I'm like, absolutely.
There's not someone screaming at me.
I'm not doing it.
Can you give yourself a scholarship?
No. You're like, I'm not doing it. Can you give yourself a scholarship? No.
You're like, I was recruited.
Here's my letter.
Coach wanted me bad.
That was so fun.
Doing high jump, though, was like the most fun thing ever
because it was just, I used to have like pretty good ups.
That's how Chris gets on this couch.
Fosbury flop.
You ever see those videos like somebody
just rounding the corner from the kitchen?
Yeah, taking a nice hard
C into your...
Just staying there for three days.
Dude, Fosbury flop.
You ever see those edits
where they'll show like a little
person doing like shot put
and as soon as the shot put leaves the screen
you just see like a bowl of blueberries
and there's one where like there's like a little person a little person playing you know doing
those ropes like the gym yeah and then it's just some black dude like, come on, man. Tie my shoes.
He's like,
let's go.
Oh, man.
It's so simple.
It is so simple.
Simplicity is better with the internet, man.
You don't have to overthink it.
Shout out to my midgies.
We have a huge little person
fan base. Huge?
Expansive. We have a huge little person fan base. Huge? Expansive.
We have a gathering.
Expansive.
That's great.
We don't.
I'm kidding, but I wish we did.
We?
Chris and I.
We, we.
Oh, you stole the puns.
Oh, okay.
I see what you're doing.
Oh, okay.
You have something to promote, Mike?
Why are you mad?
What the hell was that?
You literally started doing it.
I stole the fucking puns.
I got pissed. He had a flashback to the eagles game
$1,200 i lost yeah that sucks dude that really sucks um i guess yeah i do have something to
promote i what a terrible way to segue yeah i'm pissed what do you want to what do you have
no i'm not pissed i'm just anxious you're like the game starts in an hour
yeah i was like okay I think I got it
I don't know
How much is it total?
Yeah
Why isn't this cashless?
No easy pass?
Yeah
I got a comedy special
Mike Feeney and I
At the Comedy Cellar
I don't know when
This is coming out
This will be out in two weeks
Perfect
It's already out
Please go watch it
It's on my YouTube channel
YouTube.com
Slash Mike Feeney Comedy It's quick I made a go watch it. It's on my YouTube channel, youtube.com slash Mike Feeney Comedy.
It's quick. I made a quick 20-minute special.
I decided to do all four rooms of the Comedy Cellar in one night.
I put that all together.
That wasn't enough, so I decided to direct it and to edit it myself,
which is why it's taken nearly a year for it to come out.
That's agony.
Wait, but you had camera work help right yeah
yeah james webb helped me shoot he was the my the dp he was awesome doing he was the only person
they i did i pitched it to like a bunch of production companies and literally every single
one was like can't be done not gonna work so one company quoted me at two hundred thousand dollars
to shoot that and i was just like fuck yourself and i'm like you don't understand like they're
like we have to match the lighting and chain and i'm like no no the exact
point i'm trying for is like the tone of showing how different each of the most production companies
are fucking useless and they're only making a dollar off the true artist it's just insane and
they were like and they were like it can't be done it can't be done so i was like i'm telling
you it could be done and james webb to his credit and he shot you know normand and sam's uh netflix
specials he was just like i can see what you're trying to shoot and he's and even Webb to his credit and he shot you know Norman and Sam's Netflix specials he was just like
I can see what
you're trying to shoot
and he even said
to this day
it's the hardest
special I ever shot
in my life
because you know
we were just
literally no lighting
was added
we just
we did like
me doing spots
on like a regular
showcase night
at the cellar
so it was just like
we set up
then we do that
then we run to the next room
run to the next room
so I'm proud of how
it came out
I hope people watch it and share it and like it
because if not, I have wasted a substantial amount of my time.
Dude, that rules, man.
Yeah, congrats.
Yeah, that's fucking awesome.
It is funny that I feel like so many production companies,
especially in New York, I feel like,
are like someone just took out a loan from their parents.
100%.
And they're just trying to pay it off.
They're renting equipment.
That's all they do.
They don't fucking...
And they take an exorbitant amount of money off.
Or they bought all the equipment.
Yeah.
Well, yeah.
There's Palestine and then there's...
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's just...
It was infuriating to see them all
just kind of be like,
I'm not, you know,
like just the lack of creativity
or vision these companies have.
Yes.
But they're like, so you want to do like, they didn't even understand.
So you're going to do like a joke in this.
And then I had to spoon feed them like, no, no, no.
It's going to be like one room.
And then I show a bunch.
And then I go to the next one.
And then it's a bunch.
And they're like, yeah, but like, how do you know what jokes you're going to do?
And I'm like, I'll do it.
I'll just fucking do it.
I'll do it.
You know?
And the editing.
I've heard editing for comedy special if if it's not coming from an actual comic they are fucking
you need somebody with schultz was talking about this yeah it's incredibly important you need
someone with comedic timing and i've i've like edited since college so i like know how to but
editing yourself is brutal i mean it, it's the, watching your,
if you were, I mean, so.
I can't even watch the clips he sends us.
Right, that's what I'm saying.
It gives me too much anxiety.
So having to edit my own thing
and then go through it,
and there's, of course,
there was a ton of like issues
where all of a sudden
it was like one of the sets,
like the sound was like
getting corrupted.
Like there's all these
little like problems
I had to navigate.
One of the crowds was so bad
in one of the rooms.
Ian was my,
was the host for that show
that I was on.
And I put it in the credits because I think it's fucking hilarious.
But his intro for me, he hated them so much.
He did a joke.
It got nothing.
And he was like, well, I have no recourse at this point besides to lock the doors from the outside and burn you all alive.
Anyway, this X-Comenian is one of my best friends.
It just buries me you know
absolute no chance of success
but it's like you know it just was
if you laugh I will unlock the door
I think it does show
kind of like you know that little bit of like
where we are and it's not like a
you know I don't think it's like documentary style
there's no like interviews there's not it's just
me just going to shows doing spots
with like some so there's no there's no like interviews there's not it's just me just going to shows doing spots with like some so there's no uh there's no like you know that is sick did you purposely take
certain jokes from each room or the best joke from each room yeah i did like a slightly different
sets but i took like some of the best moments for i just wanted to show the best moments from each
and just kind of highlight how did you know what jokes you were going to do? Well, I planned. Just trying to ask the production company questions.
Are you doing a bit, dude?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Did you match the lighting to each one?
Well, yeah.
Well, that's the funny part, too, is you kind of have an idea of what you want to talk about,
but then you have to go, all right, this joke did really well in this.
And then you go, I know I didn't get it on that take, so now I got to make sure I work it into this set, that kind of a thing.
But I also figured, I was like, dude, I the the hour special outside of people you know the shanes of and schultzes of the world
the people who have like that big of a fan base a lot i think an hour of comedy is like a dead
dying thing i talked to somebody at netflix i said the average watch time for a netflix special
is 24 minutes so it's like yeah nobody needs an hour from me and i'd rather have people be like
why is this so short versus that me burn an extra 40 minutes that no one's gonna i think it's like nobody needs an hour from me. And I'd rather have people be like, why is this so short versus that me burn an extra 40 minutes that no one's going to care to see.
It's kind of what Quibi tried to do with the 15 minute episodes.
Yeah.
I mean, Stavros did that with success.
Akash has done it.
You know what I mean?
It's like people, it's like, I think that's just like a shorter form.
Is that the Lion Indian?
No, that's Hasan Minhaj.
I know.
Oh my God.
That's funny. Thatj. I know. Oh, my God. That's funny.
That story is so...
That's funny?
Why is that not funny?
Mixing up Indian guys isn't funny anymore?
Guys fucking stonewalling me.
Just a couple white guys drinking on a couch?
Can't talk about funny Indian guys?
What story?
Tell it.
I don't even know about it.
Oh, Hasan Minhaj?
He lied about his kid having...
He lied about everything and he doesn't get
how his lies are different than
Dave Chappelle talking about
buying weed from a baby.
He fully doesn't understand.
He lied about anthrax getting sent to his house
with his daughter opening it.
He said his daughter touched anthrax?
Yeah. He said that it's like a an angry person sent him anthrax he thought and it fell on
his daughter he said this on stage or off stage he said it in interviews in addition to but like
he said it on stage but then also in interviews seriously incredibly seriously is this like the
rana zizi 9-11 kind of thing where he just got caught?
It is.
No, no, no, no, no.
He didn't care.
The Ren Azizi 9-11 thing is totally excusable in my opinion.
Yeah, we've already been over this.
Yeah.
This is...
Well, the thing that was weird to me was the...
That's an honest mistake.
Everybody's...
He also lied about 9-11.
You move to L.A.
You move to L.A. right after 9-11.
You want to ingratiate yourself.
People go, oh, I'm from New York. And they go, oh, were you around 9-11? You go to LA right after 9-11 you want to ingratiate yourself. People go,
oh, I'm from New York
and they go,
oh, were you around 9-11?
You go, yeah, I was in it.
And then that's it.
And the next thing you know
it becomes a whole thing.
Yeah, you want to see it burn?
He wasn't on stage
going like,
this is the office
that I was in
in like a picture
and like this is the guy
that I sat next to
in a picture of a guy
and like...
Well, there was also a story,
the other thing about his son
that I've at least heard that's not true which is to me like the craziest part was that he had a uh
this girlfriend or no there was this girl in high school that he was friends with that he tried to
take to prom and then he and his story is he showed up to pick her up from prom and she was
going with somebody else he showed up at the door with the corsage. He was completely devastated and embarrassed in front of everybody and all this other stuff.
Her story is like, we were never going together.
We were friends.
I told him weeks ahead of time.
I wasn't going with him.
I went with somebody else.
And then he did kind of like a one-man show thing where he invited her and her now husband, who is an Indian man, and used pictures of her,
talked about her.
She got doxxed horribly.
And all of this stuff about being like,
she's basically saying that her family
wouldn't allow her to go with a song
because he was a brown man.
Oh, he's married.
She's married to a brown man.
Oh my God.
So she got doxxed.
She was like, please don't use this.
So he basically called on a billion soldiers to make this bitch's got docked. She was like, please don't use this. So he basically called on a billion soldiers
to make this bitch's life hell.
And he was like,
don't,
she was like,
please don't use my image or name.
And he did.
So all that stuff.
So that's the kind of like,
that to me was a little psychotic,
but.
Yeah,
they were like,
why would you make it?
What?
He'll be fine.
Yeah.
Yeah,
he's going to be fine.
He'll still get all the stuff.
He's not getting the Daily Show,
I guess,
anymore,
but he'll be,
he'll be okay.
But it was very.
There's one common denominator in that that
saves them.
What's that?
The tapping.
The metronome.
Yeah.
I'm counting
your time.
From a spy movie?
It was like trying to do the...
Red wire, blue wire.
That's kind of fucking crazy dude it's insane and then they were like when they were like that didn't happen
why did you say that he was like well it happened to somebody like what that's his excuse yeah it'd
be like if my whole act was about like being like violently beaten as a child every night yeah yeah
like the goodwill hunting thing he was like you choose as a child every night yeah yeah like the goodwill
hunting thing he was like you choose between a wrench and yeah i chose a wrench because fuck him
that's why and they were like but that didn't happen to you and i'd be like what happened to
somebody yeah somebody's got to be talking about it it's your emotional truth that's what he said
but also it's like a thing of like it's one thing to say it on stage because i guess technically
under the guise of like hey people comics make up shit on stage like you know rodney dangerfield's wife didn't really hate him
and all that stuff but it's like when you say it off stage like i know comics he told that story to
at like comedy salad table like in earnest like this like is a real thing that happened to me
that's a sociopath that's a different level yeah that's a different level of sociopath to be able
to do that wow hopefully he does a correspondence dinner this year.
I think he already has, right?
Yeah, he did it. Yeah, he did it already.
He did it.
I actually have no idea.
I've never met him at all. Probably a great guy.
I don't know. He's always
struck me as... No, Chris, we're telling stories.
We're telling stories of him being a good guy.
Yeah, it's an emotional truth.
The only thing is, off stage, off
camera, this doesn't happen.
I'm doing a stand-up
special. This is my best friend.
These are all the nice things he's doing.
I just remembered a very
funny thing, another thing
from Skankfest, not to bring it back to that really fast,
but of, I won't say who they were
beefing with, but
you know, the Philly
boys from the, was it
Deer and the Do-Rags?
Naeem and the Wig?
The Wig!
The legendary wig.
They were in a...
He doesn't know what that means.
I say do no no no no
oh not the legendary
the legendary
there's this guy in Philly
who called himself
the legendary wid
oh fun
and he would bring toys on stage
and then just do all like
play on words stuff
well they were in
murders
they were in a bit of a tussle
with another comedian
and it was one of those things
I'll tell you off there because I think they made up or whatever but it was a real thing where it was one of those things, I'll tell you off there
because I think they made up or whatever,
but it was a real thing
where it was like, you know,
blunts and drinks are involved
and everything else is involved.
Oh yeah, I think I remember Naeem saying something.
Yeah, so they were like,
I was like, what?
And then he just kept,
he doubled down.
I was like, okay.
It really struck me
because it reminded me so much
of like Long Island house parties
when you're drinking, when you got beef with somebody.
So you start like loudly talking shit, like in the hopes that it like people at the party
go back to that.
That's when you know they mean it.
Because that way, that way they want you to come over.
So that way, like, oh, he approached me.
So now we can fucking go.
It was like they were like going.
They were doing a PR tour.
That's why I wouldn't date Patty Mac the man with that pig. Yeah, yeah, yes. It was like, they were like going, they were doing a PR tour of Skank Fest.
That's why I wouldn't date Patty Mac the man
with that pig.
But dude,
they were getting,
they got,
you know,
as the night rolls on,
they're getting more fucked up
and more fucked up
and at one point,
they kept like,
you know,
they were rallying people
and be like,
so when this goes down,
like you got us, right?
You're on our side,
you got our backs
and we're like,
dude,
like I think that was, we were on like ass and we're like, come on, man.
That's all time.
The last thing I want to do is fist fight right now.
Yeah, it's the last thing I want to do.
You fist fight O'Malley, you actually cum.
It's pretty crazy.
I made that mistake one too many times.
Now I can't not cum when I fight.
But it was, but so at one point, though though They had like Brendan Cannon and I
They had us kind of like
Literally cornered against a wall
And they're like nah man fuck that guy
We're gonna get him
And then at one point I go
To Drew I go
Who are you guys
Who are we talking about again
And he was just like dude
Fuck Who are we mad at And he's like hold on Who the fuck are we talking about again and he was just like dude fuck who are we mad at and he's like hold on
hold on who the fuck are we and he goes naeem who are we beefing with and naeem walks up and he's
just like man here's the thing when i hate somebody i don't even remember them and i'm like
that's the funniest thing to just be they they couldn't even remember who they wanted to fight
at that point because they were getting so fucked up and then naeem just trying to play it off like i don't
even remember people that i'm mad at and then someone reminded them and then it of course
spiraled into and then i saw them nose to nose in the green room about 25 minutes later and i was
like let me get out of here i saw and i love those guys but it's like damn that's so embarrassing
that's like watching a documentary about just like LARPing or something
and two guys like going toe to toe.
Yeah.
It's fun to watch when you have no involvement in it.
Comedians fighting?
Yeah.
Jesus Christ.
Well, but Naeem can fight.
He can scrap.
I wouldn't want to fight a guy who used to be a boxer.
Yeah, I wish they fought.
You're still at a comedy festival.
Sure.
Yeah, but it's better than some of the shows.
Right?
Oh, yeah.
I mean, no offense to the festival.
I think it's pretty well documented.
Seeing a fist fight in the green room is better than any show.
The fights are built into the festival.
Yeah, quite literally.
I mean, we all, Mike, Brendan, and I all canceled our last show to do Acid.
They were like, so why aren't you going to do this 11 p.m. on a Sunday show?
I had one at midnight.
Yeah.
I'm not doing a midnight Sunday show.
They're like,
you sure you don't want to do it?
I'm like, no.
And then we were like,
you know, you're on Acid,
so you're just walking around.
So they're like,
hey, the show's going on.
You can hop on.
And we're like,
you're on in two.
No way.
Yeah, yeah.
See ya.
Just high, you walk away,
you go, don't go that way again.
Well, it's also like,
it's like six or seven shows. four days yeah the podcasts are my favorite part about it so fun
dude because they're like a podcast audience they're used to like listening and it's like
it's so those pops that you get from the laughs that are fucking we had bobby kelly and sam
tallon on it was like yeah i took that picture of you take cutting the hair yeah oh so he texts
me an hour before he's like, can you cut my hair?
Did you bring your clippers?
I'm like, I'm not a traveling barber.
I didn't bring it.
The clipper kit is...
You are a traveling barber.
You did have it, though?
No, I didn't bring it.
I had a beard trimmer.
And he's like, that'll work.
I got a wedding tomorrow.
I'm like, it's not going to work.
I know for a fact it's not going to work.
I think he looked good.
I saw some of the wedding pictures, too,
and he looks good.
I got to check him out.
That's so funny.
All I did was shorten his sideburns
and shorten his fucking
his mullet.
It's so funny,
because like,
that's all you need.
After he got off stage,
it was like the exact opposite
of like your version of the story
where he's like,
I don't know,
man,
I just wanted to try to get
Tommy Cut's hair.
I thought he could cut my hair
and then all of a sudden
he had to like cut it on the podcast.
He's like,
is it okay?
He was like so,
he got so self-conscious about it where he's like, I just a haircut i don't know i don't know it's gonna be content
you know he said that he goes no let's do it on the pod it's good content so funny everyone's just
a lying sack of shit and i love sam he was nervous about it because he couldn't see it
yeah couldn't see the hair i caught some shrapnel yeah so did bob, yeah. Sam's just started going like full roast.
Dude, when he hit that, when Bobby told that story.
You're getting fucking.
Let me tell you something.
Sam has loaded bullets.
Dude.
He's got seven chambers for everything.
No, it's literally like the Matrix when they like load up.
Yeah, yeah.
I think he goes home every night and just picks one.
He'll just throw a dart at a board.
And he's like i'm
gonna spend an hour writing roast jokes on that person and when the day comes he's gonna get hit
with three or four he's so funny man he's the fucking best he's such a good hang he didn't
win me any money this year last year we just sat at the blackjack table with the are you garbage
boys yeah that saved me from getting sick and doing drugs all night yeah because we would just
sit there for three hours.
And I would just look at Sam and I go, Sam.
And he's like, hit.
I didn't do anything for myself outside
of a pocket blackjack. That's what Gardini
did that weekend and he made a bunch of money.
Yeah. He sat next to Sam.
Sam? Yeah, yeah. Sam like guided him through everything.
He did great. Yeah. Wow.
I didn't know that.
It's so funny, yeah.
When you're talking, because I feel He did great. Yeah. Wow. I didn't know that. It's so funny. Yeah. I,
I,
I think when you're talking,
cause I feel like Sam just reads so much.
He's got things people have said in books.
Yeah.
I mean,
he had that line.
I don't remember the setup to Bobby told like a long story and he was like,
he was like,
Oh,
that did that.
And then this story waned,
you know what I mean?
And Bobby's talking about wax.
Yeah. You got wax. And this story waned. You know what I mean? And Bobby got waxed, and this story waned.
I know Bobby, so I could see him get pissed.
Where he's like, oh, fucking guy reads.
I get it.
He fucking reads books.
He's like, I don't even know Bruce Wayne.
He was getting so angry.
Oh, man.
Because I know Bobby's such an old school comic guy with like, you know, slamming each other and stuff.
But like he's not his he's not known for taking the hit from comics that are below like, you know, below him in terms of like experience level.
So it's like it was really funny to watch because Sam was like crushing.
Like he'll throw that type of like complicated, mean thing at you.
You have to like you're like that, like the bully in the movie.
You know what I mean?
You do the math.
It's Matt Damon.
He does an educated slam
and you're like, well, now I'm mad for two reasons.
I'm too dumb to understand what you said
and I know it was a slam.
All right, dude.
Thank you.
Buddy, thanks for having me.
