We were just talking about this today
We're streaming right now
This is what we're doing
Yeah, this is what streamers do
Yeah
You just sit there
For four hours straight
Yeah, and then you get $10 million from Twitch
That's how this works
How did streaming become more popular
than just podcasts?
I don't
It's got to be video games
And you're just watching a guy play video game
Yeah, but then now it's evolved past video games
Oh, that's right
People just do like hanging out
It's like there's like a thing where they just like
instead of it being like because if you go to the website
you can watch any video game that you want
so it's like if you want it's like watching sports like if you want to watch football
there's a guy that's only streaming football all the time and that I understand
and I understand that you're performing a task I want to watch you yeah it's like you want to watch this
it's like the same way that you want to watch a louis special because he's the best at the thing
so you want to watch how he does it so then it's like that makes sense but then it's
evolved past that from different video games to now it's like there's ones where it's just like
I think it's called like hanging out and it's just like guys with cameras in their rooms
and they don't do anything
and they just go like
yeah I'm gonna react
to YouTube video
you just watch a guy
have a day
are these just like guys
that are just beating off
to like young hot kids
no no no
that was
that was
um megal or whatever that was
the chat roulette
yeah that was
yeah
that used to be a thing
I've heard about this
and then every other swipe
is just a guy jacket
dude
yeah but I like Tommy
going on the Twitch for the first time
and he seems to hang out
part is like
is this just
Dude, is jacket on the kids?
Can I click on this?
Am I allowed to click on this?
Old Tommy no blacks?
Wow, that's a riff from before we started.
Just trust it was good.
That was good.
I think he can sit on its own.
It's its own island.
You can come from the front to the back.
This is Epstein pitching the first blueprint.
It can stand on its own, fellas.
It's just dudes being off to kids.
That's the island I'm pitching here.
I mean, it truly.
was right it was just like yeah you just me and my boys used to get together because there
would also be because i was in like what seventh or eighth grade you'd get together with your boys
because there would be packs of ladies too yes you'd find a pocket so like in in pennsylvania
there'd be seven girls we'd have seven dudes and then you all start showing tits showing dick
but then they would do a bait and switch they'd have ladies acting like it was a lady a hard-cut
indian guy jacking off like they would like trick you with the screen as soon as you hit next yeah
And then it's just right, you're like, some of it was the anticipation, though, because you're like, dude, I know Dick's coming, man.
You know, yeah, it's your fucking, da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da. You're getting the jabs, right? And then you fucking, you settle in. You find a nice group of ladies who are on a volleyball camp and you're in football camp and then show Dick, show butts, show tits.
We were talking about the swan earlier, that show where they fixed the crazy-looking ladies' faces, you know, which would never fly today. But we need a where are they now for dudes that were jacking off on chat.
were like, where are those guys?
Legal ramifications?
I'm saying, man.
They're still out there.
Do you think they have?
Were they all January 6th?
Was that those guys?
Go on Nancy Pelosi's desk.
Can't get on Omega.
One last go, man.
That's why that dude fell off the wall.
Yeah. He had too much cum on his fingertips.
You're going to prison.
Can I have my laptop?
Can I have a laptop access, please.
Have you seen?
I like, a big thing I get on my algorithm is a lot of from prison videos.
Do you see?
These prisoners smuggle in cell phones and they make content.
There's a guy who's a chef that's in prison.
Have you seen it's like today I'm cooking up, man.
I got ramen noodles and I got yellow Gatorade.
Like he like mixes Gatorade and noodles.
Oh, yeah.
And then he has hot sauce and he calls it like his terriaki stew.
Yeah.
They pull out like a perfect pizza.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Gatorade and salt.
Yeah, just give a couple hours.
They just throw a knife in there, shakes it up.
It's just sucking.
Deep dish.
There you go.
Look at this prison edition
will be crazy
That would be sick
Is this guy monetizing at all?
Is he like
I mean like generating
Truly they won't let him keep any of it
But they let him keep the phone
I don't know
Yeah do you think it'd be easy to
Reverse engine
You're not state prison
You're talking about like
I'm not talking about county jazz
This is not Penn
This is prison
It's like federal
It's like federal prison people are doing this
And they just have phones and
Yeah there's the same dude also
There's a specific guy I'm thinking of
But he makes cooking videos
And then every once in all
get a fight video on his page.
You don't think of an officer or a warden's going,
did you see this?
This pop up in your Twitter?
He's in his feed?
Yeah.
Jamal is making fucking pizza.
On an iPhone 15.
Nobody's going to check in on this.
Then they go to some fat white lady
who's been fucking him for a month.
She's been handing them new phones.
She's been smuggling it in.
That's the last ingredient.
Yeah.
I love seeing stories of these
the ossifers taking the fucking
Rajol
you know they just walk into a cell
they come out limping
you know
the cops are getting fucked by the
by the criminals
are you serious?
Yeah you know
like the male cops
you guys gotta get off this
jerk off that
you gotta get in the real world
we have very different
four of you pages
yeah I'm 45
what are you beating off
that's what it takes for you to get
yeah
you're saying
So male cops go in to the cell.
No, female.
Okay, female.
Yeah, female fat white ladies from the Midwest.
Of course.
Yeah.
There's a pipeline.
All whole stuffed.
And you just watch the aftermath on Instagram.
You see them come in and they come back out?
That's your thing.
Yeah.
And then you get to decide what happened.
Yeah.
It's a make your own adventure.
100%.
Yeah.
Read your own adventure book.
Turn to page 47 if you would see Claret get fucking raped.
And you're like, no, no, I don't want to see that part.
I want to see the thing.
You got her.
You're putting her blouse back on that afterwards.
You got to respect her, though.
That's a challenge.
It is a challenge.
To step in up, like, that's like bottom of the ninth base is loaded.
Yeah.
To federal prison with a dude who's doing life.
Can I lose my job?
You can do whatever I want.
You know, you're going to get the best fucking stick of your life.
You know what I mean?
Or the opposite.
Because this guy has been.
Or you're just going to fish hook you and come instant.
Oh, he's going to do that twice three times.
You're not going to know what that came.
You got to prepare for that.
You can assume it's going to be like Johnny Simpson.
level action here.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And there's a,
there's a video
of this shot from
you know what I'm talking about,
right?
There's a video of a woman
who was a smoke.
Yeah, she was.
So hot.
Yeah.
And one of the other guys
was like,
and he's like
filming on a flip phone
or his cellmate
burying this chick.
Okay.
And she just walks in,
unzips,
he turns around,
he's,
you know.
And this is real.
This isn't like a set up.
This is real.
She was fired.
Set. Yeah, yeah. Okay.
She just walked in as a hot Puerto Rican guard and got fucking smashed.
Yeah.
And his boy just videotaped the whole thing.
And she didn't see that notice that being filmed.
There was a guy three feet away.
He did keep a really steady hand for what the stakes were.
Yeah.
Yeah, you would think he would be like animalistic.
Like I slice the throat of my buddy and like I want in.
Yeah, right.
You know, caged animals.
Yeah.
Unless that's their like Josh.
He's just the video guy.
Yeah. Yeah. I'm like the producer.
He's got the headphones.
Hold on.
Can you guys both check in with me?
The mic is off.
Can we put the mic closer?
Yeah.
Can we count to 10?
Can I get an audio check?
Check.
Check.
Check.
Check one, two, three, four.
Yeah, he does.
Yeah, something's going on at the fucking levels here.
I need you to moan a little bit louder quick.
I got to even out your fucking, make sure you're not.
It's like a boom mic operator on set and he's like, hold on, hold helicopter.
Helicopter.
A dude screaming.
from another cell?
Hold for sound.
Hold for sound.
Yeah, getting in room tone.
No, no, stop.
Don't do it.
Don't do it.
Don't do it.
I'll tell you everything.
I'll tell you where I.
Right.
I didn't steal it.
I didn't steal it.
I got to imagine she was ready
to not be a cop anymore.
I mean, you kind of have to.
Yeah, yeah.
I don't think you would do that if.
Right.
If you cared about your job.
You still were worried about your 401K.
That's like a brutal job to get.
Yeah.
To be in, to be.
Can you imagine.
Fucking the, yeah.
to be the hall monitor for prisoners.
Yeah.
Fuck that.
Never.
Just a crossing guard
for bipolar schizophrenics.
Yes.
Yeah.
Just going,
you got to come this way.
You got to come this way.
Come on.
Everybody hold hands.
Yeah.
Just,
you know.
But this is our perspective.
We don't want to get fucked by these guys.
That's true.
This could be the dream.
True.
You're a small Puerto Rican whore.
Yeah.
You know?
Honestly,
she might be in the big leagues.
She's smarter than you think.
Yeah.
She got the job known when she wanted.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That was the end result.
That's the promotion.
I think so.
Yeah.
Good for her.
She went viral.
And this is,
in many ways.
Because that's the thing.
It's not full-blown ADD.
Not yet,
but we got the end of the camera.
The viral load is.
It's crazy that it's called viral load.
It is disgusting that that's what they call it.
It's true, though.
I was so active in my 20s that I was so paranoid about getting
at 10.
And you were before all the meds that we have now.
Yeah.
Prep is.
yeah yeah yeah oh yeah and uh i would go to a clinic every like like six months i would just get blood
tested yeah yeah and this is before i had to like insurance and stuff so i finally got to a doctor
i think i was like 27 or 28 and i went to a doctor instead of just you know pretending
everything's going to work out and i told him about like i'm fearful this fearful that and he's
like what do you what do you think happens when you get how do you think you get HIV
I'm going to have sex with a, you know, a pig.
You get in bed with the wrong piglet, and she gives you the fucking bug.
Yeah.
And he's like, you know how many times, even if the woman has HIV or AIDS, how many times of sex?
Yeah.
How many, yeah, how many fucks you'd have to take to get, to go upstream?
Sure.
And this doctor is like an old Jewish guy telling me, he goes, you know, like a stream?
Yeah, stream's going down this way.
He's explaining science to you.
My mom's still sweating
Can you just stop with the innuendo?
Am I going to die?
Dude, I used to look inside
Well, this is called a tributary.
When these move in east, west, it's different.
What the fuck are you talking about, man?
Do I have the clap?
He told me how hard it would be
for her juices to come upstream
while everything else is flowing down.
Right.
And the only other way to do is have an open sore
and this is why gay men would get in a lot.
No, it's true.
It's blood.
The rib and the tear in the butt hole.
Yeah.
And even if the ripping and the tear
Yeah
You remember that guy
That viral guy
Yeah
His name was rip and tear
No I don't know what this is
He was an old guy in a speedo
That was very graphically suggestive
Humping the camera
He ended up on Tosh Point O
He did a web redemption
He got AIDS
But no
There's no
Reb redemption for that
No one
No no
He would say the Rippin in the Tair
And the Rippin in the Tair
Like he was on a resort or something
And he was describing
Fucking old women
Oh my God
He's like 60
It was gross
That's why he was
went, I mean, viral before
Instagram. It's like YouTube.
And OG.
Oh, I thought you guys knew about that.
No, no.
We'll pull them up in post.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But anyway.
Yeah.
So, even, and then he told me, like,
I learned so much more about gay sex.
I was like,
I was 26.
He was like, look.
He's like, Tom, let me tell you something.
They do what to each other?
Tommy's head explodes.
His head explodes.
He has no.
I was, you fucking kidding.
me Goldstein.
I got to make some calls.
I got to get out of you.
I actually have a fever.
They do more than just sing with each other.
Well, it's like Matthew McConaughey finding out.
You've seen Dallas Buyers Club when he gets totally as gay.
He's like,
I'm not fucking gay though.
Same thing in EZE.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
In the fucking whatever.
Boys in the Hood.
In W.A.
No, no, it's not boys in the hood.
It's not boys in the hood.
No, wait.
This is why this guy is this guy good.
This is why your dad calls him the Detroit Boys.
No, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, uh, instead of the Pistons.
Instead of the lions.
Easy boys.
No, there was, what is the name of it?
It's, uh, it's called Compton, straight out of Compton.
Straight out of Compton.
What not call it?
Boys in the hood.
That's great, man.
This guy, this guy is African American attempts.
are very funny
culturally
oh look at them
yeah I know
that's why it makes
it extra funny
yeah
well it's funny
he's a piece of corn
from Iowa
he's a pink
piece of corn
you know ice cube
notorious
that guy
yeah
but yeah
EZE
that's his first thing
too
he's like I'm not
yeah
I think he says
faguzzi
yeah
yeah
but
a gavone
yeah
but he's like coughing
blood
I'm just
how he's hacking
of men
were back then
yeah
he's hacking up
blood
and they just
puts his headphones
back on
Dude, you need to see someone.
Well, I guess their lifestyle,
you can always blame it on something, you know?
It's what you said.
It's saying, I want to pretend it's not happening, you know.
Men can get into that place.
So you're to be commended for checking on your health.
Yeah.
And educating yourself about homosexual behavior.
Well, it's so much easier.
What Goldstein said was just, I don't remember his name, but I'm, you know.
There's intervenous drug use and then gay sex
We're ripping and tearing
And the peggers got fucking the juice
Rips and tears throws the juice wad into the hole
Knowing you when he said upstream
You probably were like yeah but what if she's on top doc
What if it's you know gravity you don't know this one I'm with right here
She's very talented
she played badminton and gillian you know what i mean she was a prison guard
for his five years i met him on omegal back with it was a bit of ripa dance
you know how many guys i watched jack off before i met this lady
uh anyway i went to the clinic after i won philly's funniest
uh to celebrate
Well, there was a thing.
I got good news and bad news.
You want the competition.
You do have a hate.
Doc, how bad is it?
Well,
Healing didn't even give me
a prize money
to get the fucking appointment set.
You do got a weekend
coming up in January.
That's the good news.
You will not make it to January.
That is the problem.
We're trying to get it reschedule.
How's November look for you?
You're going to be weak.
It's going to be a 20 minutes.
in headlines.
We're talking to the book
and we're telling them
they're swimming
upstream on it.
They're swimming right
upstream.
The viral loads.
The viral load is
on the ticket sales.
Yeah,
we're going to have to pay for the room.
Nobody wants to see an AIDS patient.
But I was in the magazine
at the clinic.
Yeah.
Because they had like a Philly mag
that like had a profile
things and they're on like the table.
Yeah.
That's my fucking head shot.
What?
And I'm in the room waiting to get blood.
Yeah.
How insane is that, dude?
Dude, that's so, it's like a movie scene level of funny.
To be at a thing and some ladies like looks over, sees your face, you?
Yeah.
Like, Tommy, AIDS check.
I think it would be funny if you've just been diagnosed.
And then you walk out and then you look down.
You see Philly's funniest.
Fuck.
Throw it.
What could have been, huh?
What could have been?
Philly's filthiest.
But that's great,
that you were health conscious back then.
Yeah,
a little too much,
you know.
I don't think you could be overly on that, you know?
I had a razor bump one time.
I went to the doctor three times,
three different doctors,
three different times because it wasn't going away.
I was convinced I had herpes.
It took three dudes to tell me I didn't have herpes.
And then every time I would figure out
why I thought I did.
The first guy looked at it,
no,
that's like a razor bump.
And then like I was driving.
I was like,
okay, that's good.
And then like a day later,
I was like,
he didn't even take a swab, though.
So then I went to another guy
How quick you can convince yourself
Yeah, oh 100%
100%
Yeah, yeah
Because then it starts a whole spiral
And if it continues to not go away
Yeah
Because you go well what the fuck
If I don't if I
If he didn't even take a spot
I gotta get somebody to swab it
Yeah
So then I went to another guy
And then he squeezed it
Yeah
And it popped
And then he went
Yeah well it was an ingrown hair
And then he went
Yeah that's
Why did you do that?
I tried
It didn't come out
I didn't have the touch
Somebody else's hands
Oh professional hands has to pop
Yeah
No I just made
I felt better
Yeah I felt less
Why I try
and it was just nothing was common and then he did it and it popped and I went
all right sweet it's not that and then and then I drive and then two days later I went but
he didn't swab it I kept telling us if he didn't swab it no see this is a bit right here
I mean what if you did this like 10 more times yeah yeah yeah well he didn't suck it
well or just the next test or whatever you know well you didn't do that yeah no matter
what the hype yeah just kicks in no matter what you've convinced yourself I've kin in to have
herpes and then yeah yeah I had a lady there was a girl that I hooked up with in
high school who, uh, she just went through a breakup. Her boyfriend got really mad at me that
I hooked up with her so recently after the breakup. So then he started a rumor, uh, that she had
herpes and then gave it to me. That was the rumor that he said, I broke up with herpes.
Is this prior to the pimple pop? Yeah, this is, this is years before. So this is what bled into
your that's probably. Yeah, dude. Yeah. When the pivel came up, you're like, God damn. God damn it.
Mark got it. Mark. Mark. Yeah, Mark. Mark. Yeah, Mark in the trenches. But he, so he didn't want to fight
you. He did some girl shit. So he did some lady shit and started a rumor about it. So he said,
he said, because you, you were on fucking steroids. Oh yeah, he saw those nipples.
He's like this guy, this guy's got herpes. This guy's got some. They should have tried
pop in your teeth.
Gets in their eye, they get a new disease. They're gay. Yeah, they're gay.
Mr. Francis, this is far more concerning. What do you have going on up here.
Enough about your herpes. Let me see those fucking nipples.
This dude though. We got to cut one of these up.
Got to take this home.
We actually have a petri dish right here
If we could just put your
This is what we want to swap
This is hepatitis
So he breaks up with his lady
Then he says the reason he breaks up with her is because she has herpes
So then we hook up and then he starts telling everybody
That she gave me herpes
So then like a couple months passed and they got back together
And then everybody started saying that he has herpes
Because she had herpes
Well that's his own defaults
And so he created a rumor that he has herpes
In like a roundabout way
Which I always thought was so funny
No that is funny
So he actually had herpes
No nobody actually had herpes
started the rumor, which means if he takes her back, now he has herpes.
Because everybody, that's how high school words. Everybody went, well, he has herpes now.
Shut out, Mark.
Shut out Mark, dude. A little fucking, he's all through this.
I also, yeah. How old were you?
17. Yeah. He's like, nobody has herpes. I love her. Yeah. I can't get enough of this lady.
Yeah. Fuck Josh.

Extreme positions only?
Yeah, real extreme shit.
What's the extreme for you, Tommy?
Well, you put her head down here, her legs out.
Anyway, this episode brought me by Richard.
Go ahead, Nick, you know, I carry my encyclopedia, Brick-Tanica everywhere.
Whoa! How long did that take to get through?
Four hands.
I've been kicked out of four museums for carrying a loaded sculpture.
Tommy, you don't go to museums.
True.
You ever tried to tuck in a summary?
You had a museum calling your dick in encyclopedia.
Things that never happened for a thousand.
I tried Bluchew, okay?

I worked my way up
I was an entrepreneurial spirit
You guys don't understand
I wanted to be the counter guy
I was selling pink sheets at 15
They knew I was going to steal
Everybody's bitch if I worked at the counter
I got FaceTime with these brawls
It was mine
I did that and then I
Before I left for the military
They said if you want
We can offer you an assistant management job
It's getting sadder
Yeah
The beats it never worked out
The beats never worked out
He was so ready
To take over
They're like we're shipping out of the Middle East
Yeah
The counter of the world
Shout out to Godfathers one time

It's like Dave Portnoyne.
I'm talking about her in peace.
Prepare.
Prepare your stay.
Everybody knows the rules.
Yeah,
they,
Godfather's pizza where?
Mace City,
Iowa.
They used to have little napkins
that would say like,
Hope that's marinera.
They're doing like wordplay about.
Yeah,
they're playing like doing like
tropey Godfathers,
the movie references
being like a dish you,
a slice you can't resist.
Stuff like that.
Right.
Is this a chain?
Or is it just the hackiest thing in the world?
No, it's a chain.
It's a chain.
Where's my slice shaped like a horse's head?
What is this?
What is this?
And where's my brother?
We arrive together.
And also the toilet doesn't flush.
There's like,
I got looked on there.
There's a gun in there.
I don't know.
What's happening here?
Oh my God,
they got a taco pizza.
Yeah, that was our big one.
It's a fusion.
Fusion.
You know what they used to do?
This is disgusting, dude.
Yeah, they had a...
That's a good like 2 a.m. thing, though, probably.
I'd get a top.
Taco pizza, hammers.
Try it out.
Working in a restaurant
that looks like this
and going,
I want to get to the counter.
No,
what you do is you join
the military.
That's what you do.
Dude, I had counter dreams,
dude.
Oh my God.
I had dreams being in the counter.
This is the saddest thing in the world.
Tommy,
it was a different time.
That was a big deal.
He's a young kid.
You know,
he's working his way out.
It's like a pizza place.
It's like dominoes,
but like a different name.
No, the actual stop.
They have, like, mini pizzas and stuff.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And you have managers who are, like, actively trying to bang out the 15-year-olds are, like, 33.
Of course.
That's a workplace thing, I think, yeah.
Yeah.
They might have where you work.
Yeah.
You'd be a landscaper.
You were hoping they hire a 15-year-old hot girl.
Yeah, you could be a warden and you hope that the fucking...
Yeah, the prisoners.
You know what?
That was good.
That was good.
That's good.
This is why you brought me on.
Yeah,
that chemistry.
Nicky.
We were going to say the same thing.
I love you, dog.
Right?
You want to do it again?
Yeah.
Black.
I thought you were going to go with me.
I thought you were going to do it.
You're fired.
You ever hook up with a woman in the sand out there in the military?
In the sand.
No.
No, I did not.
That's good.
That's the clip of the episode.
I also told me never.
I was never in the sand.
I was in East Asia.
People asked that about the Middle East
and about pedophiles.
Yeah.
You've hooked up with a lady
in the sandbox?
Yeah.
You ever go?
Well, it's, you know,
I thought you were in Afghanistan or something.
No, he said he never saw action.
We asked him this earlier today.
No, no, no, no.
Yeah, no, never.
What did you do?
Make pizza.
I made pizza.
I wanted to be on the counter,
but they put me in the back again.
He sat everybody.
The military hostess.
But then you think you're like a genius.
You're like, guys, taco pizza.
Yeah, good for the unit morale.
So what did you do?
I was an amphibious assault vehicle crewman in the Marines.
It's like a tank that goes in the water.
They used them off the side of the ship.
So we would never do any.
The last time they used them was in Iraq.
They like did a Philly fake out where they like acted like they were coming in from like one of the coast.
And then Saddam moved all of his forces over there.
And then we just like fucking launched an airborne thing.
And hilarious.
Yeah, we like, you know what I mean?
Why is it called a Philly fake out?
Philly special.
For the football.
Yeah.
Isn't that funny that we use football fucking names for a war?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Well, that's what they call.
I was just using the analogy.
Nick Foles put one in Osama's head.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
But that was the last, they didn't use them.
When I was in, they were like not using them.
We just, like, went and did like humanitarian bullshit.
I was thinking World War II.
I've watched documentaries with the guys, D-Day, the amphibious.
That's, like, the job I had the guy.
I would be the guy that's like 30 seconds.
Yeah.
Well, that's the one guy that would live.
Yeah, that guy.
The guy's driving the boat.
The last thing you see is me being like,
oh, what the fuck?
Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Reverse.
Go, go, go, go.
Oh, my God.
You can have France.
Jesus Christ.
Just don't take Godfather's beats.
The Rom Nevo is the Godfather's pizza.
That'd be a little naked gun, extra joke.
He's reversing and then takes a bottle of his pizza slides.
It's like, why did you bring that?
It's a dessert pie.
They had like six dessert pies.
Also, yeah, still complaining on the boat ride back.
I'm like wet right now.
You're going to see that?
That's crazy.
Making it about me.
I watched this interview with this guy.
He said they dropped the door.
Everybody died.
Except me and like two other guys.
Yeah.
30, 40, 50 guys are dead.
Well, think how fun that must have been.
Jesus Christ, though.
No, to be the Germans.
You're playing a video game.
The crowd just sitting there
With a 50 caliber machine gun
But they're waiting for that
But they don't even wait
You just shoot until they
Because you don't know what they're going to just keep going
I got a bad feeling man
I don't think you're going to have had here man
I think Tommy would have been good in the military
I'd be fucking great
I think you'd be great
You'd be so good in a war movie man
One of the best characters
Like a general smoking a cigar
Yes
You throw the helmet at the guy
You're gassing everybody up
You know what you would do
You would hype everybody up
and then as soon as you guys get close
you slowly start moving to the back
where we go
push forward
push forward
Tommy no blacks
No it would be fun to be like an officer
No you'd be perfect
I'm seeing you already
Like band of brothers
Like that era
Yeah
Just Tom Hanks
But with an edge
Like I'm not a teacher
You know I'm just like an abusive father
From the middle of fucking country
Yeah
Yeah.
And I look at these guys like my kids.
Yes.
And everybody's firing me the fuck up.
You Tom Hanks from Private Ryan coaching a bunch of Forrest Gump's.
Yes.
That's what it would be.
100%.
Yeah.
Lieutenant Tom.
Yeah, man.
Lieutenant Tommy.
He's got our back.
He's got no legs, Lieutenant Dan.
But it is camaraderie.
There is, like you were saying about football.
You're going from all these sports that are camaraderie driven.
Then you go to the military.
And then you go to stand-up comedy.
I remember you tell me this, which is very interesting,
where it's fight every man.
for themselves in a way.
Yeah, you go from like all units working together for everything that I've ever done.
Yeah.
To then going into comedy.
And then I had that mentality.
And then I realized nobody had that mentality.
Yeah.
Where I would like book people on show when I was running shows.
I booked people and they wouldn't book me back.
And then I was like trying to, I would get a gig.
And I'd be like, oh, dude, come and do this with me.
And then I realized like, I'm splitting half the money for no reason.
I could just be doing it on my own.
Like I had that mentality.
And then I was like, oh, you have to be like a selfish dickhead most of the time to
coming back every night from Mike's just robbing his dog tags.
what am I doing wrong
you do have to like be a dickhead in comedy though
you really do you have to like be selfish
you don't have to be well dickhead
selfish are two different things
first of all yeah yeah yeah I agree
I agree you don't have to be a dickhead
I was very quiet
I would stand in the corner
creep everybody out not on purpose
but just stay away
yeah because I figure
and a lot people thought I was a dickhead
when I started out just because I wasn't
doing the buddy buddy shit
but I always saw like you just got to prove it on stage
you know and then people will like your shit
I think you slowly find your group
Yeah yeah for sure takes a while for sure
Which I think is necessary in stand-up comedy
Because you have to get better at the
There's people that start now
And they're all buddy-buddy to start
And it's like well of course you're gonna laugh at each other
It's your little open mics you know
That's not really that's not helpful
I mean if it is funny yeah
But if you're trying to just come up together
Because we're all laughing
We're all having a good time
It's like you gotta get kicked in the teeth a little bit
Yeah you have to yeah for over a decade
For sure
You have to get fucking...
And then that's where you meet your soldiers.
You know, the guys that...
All the guys that made it to the beach.
Yeah.
That's the analogy.
How many open micers are floating in two feet of water?
There's a bloody beach.
The rendezvous was helium.
You could meet your guys.
Right.
And then we were outside helium.
Yeah.
Trying to get dates.
Tommy, get in there
I'm throwing my veil
Tommy's gonna host
and then Tommy just takes one
to host
Tommy is not gonna host
Tommy can no longer host
Radio Evac
Tommy's dead
Tommy the flamethrower
would be fucking terrifying
I'd run out of gas
so fast
You use it on the boat
Everybody can get it
Look at you
Today we're cooking Koreans
It'd be fucking with everybody.
Everybody could get it.
Here's what I'm going to do to them.
I'll show you right in.
You're just out by the time you get to the fucking...
Just wearing 80 pounds for no reason.
Tell me, we don't need to weld anything, man.
Put the gun down.
Pick up a rifle.
And then what?
And then what?
Sleep?
Huh?
You can sleep through this?
Either that or Tommy.
Who can sleep for a time like this?
Come play with my gun.
I'll let you shoot.
Tommy no blacks
Yeah man
1920 that's appropriate
Heaven
Just after World War I
World War II hasn't started up yet
You're swinging
You're getting back to your wife
She hasn't been fucking any
Yeah man
Cut that
Is that the signal
What is that give it to Sega one
Is that what that is
Wasting all my energy
32 what do we think coach
Short and gold
I'm saying
If I was through the 20s, maybe
I've changed
I'm different
I'm soft
softer
Now I can throw bricks through the window
I don't want to hit them
I'm not going in there
I don't want to ruin my shirt
that's the other character you can play
the guy that throws the brick
and remember the Titans
in Denzel's house
just chucks the right
you're not even on screen
he's my daughter in there
another riff
from a podcast riff
but it is funny
another it is still funny
the only black guy's house
in the neighbor
it's gone in there
No, no, I was lifting.
I was lifting.
I didn't mean...
Yeah.
Mystic River Pizza.
Oh, man.
Good times.
Well, Nick, I'm very excited for you to be here, man.
Thanks.
Truly, me too.
That fucking rules.
Thank you.
What's your situation?
I'm sweating.
Yeah, it's hot as fucking here.
Can we do the fan?
Is that a thing or no?
I don't want to ruin the podcast.
Let's see how loud this big is.
Oh, is it a noise issue?
It's the remote's on the wall.
Right next to where he touched it.
That's why you never got to the county, you're retarded.
What a monkey.
You just pulled it off the wall and started eating it.
That's the test.
Can you turn on the fan?
If they can't turn it on the fan, Afghanistan.
You know what you're going?
100%.
He went through boot camp.
Couldn't figure this shit up.
That's a confusing.
One of the water tanks.
He made it through a whole gas chamber.
He's just vomiting, but he made it.
And they're like, all right, now turn it on the fade.
These flashbacks are doing an army car on their knees, fucking barbed wire.
Yeah, man.
Can't even see your remote next to the goddamn switch.
It makes it all the way out of the beach.
Turns around.
Turn the fan on.
Francis, turn on the fan.
He just.
Panics.
It's like, same pride, Ryan, when he's in the hallway.
Yeah, he can't bring myself into, like,
he can't grab the remotes.
It's 10 dead Germans.
He's dying upstairs of heat stroke.
Ten dead Germans around Josh.
He killed him.
Turn the fan, oh, Josh.
Turn the fan on Josh.
You're right.
He starts putting in his mouth.
He'll kill himself.
Good stuff.
So we would have never had that fan content
If I didn't ask about it.
Yeah.
It does feel nice.
We should always do it.
Guys, this is great.
I thought it was going to be too loud.
It's really nice.
That's a Florida room.
That's the best part about Florida to them.
Okay.
But you were talking about Austin.
Yes.
I live here now.
Yeah.
You said some very nice things to me.
I did.
I've always said nice things.
And I knew they were going to be nice because you said,
I'm not gay.
butt.
Well, you suck my balls.
Yeah.
No, it's nice to see guys that like you
you fuck with, you know?
Yeah, man.
Dudes that are funny. Dudes that are great hang.
We made it to the beach. That's what it is.
You made it to the beach. Yeah. You did.
And there's a lot of fucking floaters out there.
Right.
There's a lot of fucking dead bodies.
We, we found each other.
Yeah. In the capital.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. We're stealing
the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, we're
We're sharing bottles of wine from Hitler right now.
We're drinking it, man.
Yeah, we made it to the palace.
Josh is over here eating the remote.
Eating the cork.
He doesn't know how to get the fucking bottle open.
I'm just happy to be here.
I'm just happy I made it.
Gets the cork out, starts chewing on it.
What the fuck is wrong with this guy?
We're making out with the free Jews and he's fucking trying to figure out how to open this bottle of red.
Is that the first thing you were trying to do?
What?
That's his only motivation?
Yeah, but think about how hot they're going to be so skinny, you know?
Yeah.
Well, the free ones, the free ones are.
greet well.
They had nice
curves.
Yeah, yeah.
You seen docs?
For that to be a
takeaway from a documentary,
it's crazy.
No,
but I like the idea
of him saying that
during the war.
You ever seen docs?
They haven't made ours yet,
Tommy.
The fuck is a documentary
yet in the 40s.
They have no idea.
Just wait.
Yeah,
I like it here.
I've been here like
just over a week.
Yeah.
It's great.
Where do you live?
Riverside.
Oh, nice.
Yeah.
What about Atlanta?
Do you still have a house?
Atlanta.
No, no, no.
Left.
Gone gone.
I had the apartment, but yeah, I'm just switching apartments.
So you're fully here?
Yeah, man.
Oh, I thought it was going to be like a transitional period.
That was this past year, basically.
That was like, that's what this was.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Because I'm coming out here for almost exactly a year.
Like once a month, too.
You were making rounds.
Yeah.
I mean, I even got an Airbnb back in March just to feel it out.
And I still made trips.
back to Atlanta during that month.
Monetarily, that's pretty fucking
pricey, right? Yeah.
Yeah. Well, that's some good weekends.
Let's go. Yeah.
But also,
you know,
it's, this was the time.
This is the time to do it.
Fuck you, dude.
But I also don't, I don't have like a lady.
I don't have kids. I don't have like a...
Of course.
My expenses are not,
they're not nothing, but they're also not...
Yeah, you can manage it.
Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Which is selling out a weekend somewhere.
You were doing, you were getting
nice weekends in Atlanta just to like fill oh yeah I mean yeah like not even club stuff I just had
good like rounds of bar shows gigs that would sell out how's the helium the you guys went to
is that the same club yeah I'm sure it is yeah yeah the one it's up north yeah yeah with Chris yeah with
Chris oh great okay yeah yeah yeah yeah it's good it's only like six months old maybe eight yeah
yeah yeah everybody there is really friendly everybody there the staff was nice the crowds were
great. It's funny. I just got and plugged in there as I was leaving, basically.
Yeah. It took them a second to kind of figure out the scene. Yeah, of course.
It's also kind of a pain in the ass to get up to Alpharetta from Atlanta. So, you know,
but I like the club. I like Kristen. She's great. Yeah. The GM over there. Yeah, she's,
yeah, asking me to do a weekend there. Oh, yeah, because you guys all know her from Philly.
Yeah. Shout out to Kristen. Yeah, shout out Chris.

Do not cut the fan pit.
I won't.
I will not.
Don't save your own ass.
I won't.
You'll take that fucking bullet right in the skull.
I'll take the, I still stand by the fact that I don't think it's that crazy.
It's a, I don't have a fan that gets, I don't have a remote fan.
I don't live like that.
Yeah.
I have a fucking string that is broken that I pull on.
I'm not.

It's a compliment.
It's like George Clooney type of guy.

Classically handsome

Grant?
Yeah.
I actually don't know Grant.
I agreed because I thought that you were going to.
No.
I agree because I thought you were going to move on if I agreed.
I have no idea who Grant is either.
We're going to have to cut this.
Carrie Grant.

You have a youthful spirit
Yeah, I have a lesbian face

Yeah, that's Carrie Graham
Talking to Rachel Maddow over here
he's a legend okay but what was he what was his big
this is my own ignorance
I mean Tommy these photos are all in black and white
yeah he's fucking born in 1901
I get that but you

That's not an ex, my friend.
Bullseye.
He spin it that there's a cross here.
Are we splitting this last one?
Yeah, sure.
Okay.
I did kind of pressure you into that.
What else you want?
See?
He's a good actor, man.
I've seen some of you.
No, he meant that.
I've seen your clips.
Yeah, but that's where it comes from.
Yeah.
Real place.
Yeah, he'll like...
What else you want?
Dad?
Yeah.
Cheers, buddy.
Yeah, cheers.
Look at that.
Perfect poor.
Is it you, Nick?
Perfect poor.
Here's to you guys.
Here's the you fellas.
Having me back on the island.
Yeah.
You're going to be on the island a lot.
Chris has gone in PA.
I appreciate that.
Yeah.
Do you trust me to be able to fill those shoes.
Chris's are big shoes to fill.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Stepper.
As we run out of things as...
No.
Never.
You guys have something to say, don't you?
I can sit in this.
Say anything.
I do it on stage all the time.
You want to sit in it?
I can sit in it.
We'll take a breeze for a bit.
That's nice.
Enjoy what Josh did for us.
Yeah, man.
It's back, bringing me back to the beach.
How do you feel?
It feels good.
I feel like I'm in a normal room now.
I really felt like I was baking for a sec.
Well, we do haze people.
I think it's going to show up on camera.
It's how sweaty I was.
Dude, I just, we just learned about the,
they throw the lights on.
at the mothership
Yeah
Well I've known that
What do you mean?
To like when you're like doing the open mic
The open mic before the crew show
The lights stay on for the open mic
Yeah yeah yeah he didn't know that
I don't know that's crazy
I guess I haven't noticed but I guess I don't really
It seems normal right
Because
Yeah I think it's supposed to be like a
It's psychological
Yeah it's like to
Because it physically fucks up the crowd
And you have to work harder
I see
It's brilliant in a way
Because it's like who you know who else does it
Who's gonna deserve this lap
Are you going to work through this?
I get what you're saying.
You know who else does that?
That's why they throw fucking fake grenades next to these guys
when they're doing the wire run.
Fake fan remotes.
Yeah, yeah.
It's my kryptonites.
Don't fan remotes out of them?
The, uh, well, Tracy Morgan also turns all the lights on.
Have you seen?
He did the improv one time.
He walked in with like a crew of six people.
One of them had music playing at the,
improv and he went, turn the lights on.
Like a boom box?
Yes.
Okay.
And then he said, turn the lights on.
You know what a stereotype here.
And then he, dude, and then he performed all of Godfather's piece right now.
These weren't Korean guys, surely.
And then he performed the whole weekend with the lights on.
Yeah.
He did it every show.
It was like his thing.
He would come in and go, turn the lights on.
Everybody's lights would, they turned the lights all on.
Did he ever explain it?
Did he ever say?
He just likes it.
Huh.
I like this.
Wow.
He likes to see their faces, is what he said.
He's one of the greats.
Yeah, which is the exact opposite that I like to perform to the abyss.
I like to just imagine nothing's happening out there.
You're getting audio feedback so that way you don't have to look at faces.
And faces freak me out just in general.
Like I don't like eye contact with people at airports or like getting food.
Anytime I'm in public and I lock eyes with somebody for too long, it does something to me.
I don't like.
I get like a fear of them.
I shift when I lock in with somebody that like it, I don't.
I enjoy seeing people having fun
and then I also understand
that people are just going to be like watching.
Yes.
But then every now and then I snap
so I'll shift my energy
when I see someone just staring.
Every once in a while.
Yeah,
yeah, yeah.
You snap it all the time, Tommy.
Yeah, but I mean like, I'll like,
I'll like ruin my setup.
Like, what's your fucking problem?
You know what I mean?
Like in the middle of a joke that's doing well.
Yeah.
Because like I just see somebody
that I think is being interesting.
I can see you seeing
thinking somebody's laughing at you
like the whole room
you're killing
and he's like what you fucking problem
yeah yeah
why don't you like this
like there's one guy
yeah
well there's always one dude
because his girl's fucking
googling or something
well there's that
no I mean like
you're looking at a guy
like you're misinterpreting
yeah like the guy's having a great time
first of all
the mescal is misinterpret
you fucking making fun of me right now
I didn't I just
you fucking better than me pal
I'm just trying to enjoy it
yeah
Yeah, I thought I thought I thought I said you're right, but yeah
But well Louis said that that there's always because he's when he was doing like the garden
Like those first runs of that there's always dudes just arms cross of course
There's nothing you can say that's gonna fix it it's like yes just not the show for you I guess
I don't know doing the round with chain is so fun I'm sure he gets to say you guys get the same experience
It's so fucking fun right I'm doing it again this week in Florida do you do you are you seeing that when you're up there you see
just a couple of guys peppered in.
It's not like, obviously it's
dark and it's whatever, 20,000
fucking people.
Tommy's five minutes to turn the lights on.
Who wants the lights on?
I am upset.
Fuck this man.
That would be sick.
Shane's like, what the fuck is you doing?
What the fuck was it?
What?
They liked it.
They were fine.
I got lucky.
I got Pittsburgh, Cincinnati.
Buffalo, Albany, like the real dog shit towns that, like, this is their one time out for the month.
And they're going to get fucked, they're going to go hard.
But you're their guy.
Yeah.
You know, you're the relatable presence out there.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, man.
Yeah, man.
But you'll still see those guys.
Oh, yeah.
You can still see like the front.
Peppered in.
Yeah.
Like in the round, you still see the equivalent of the, let's say, fat man.
Yeah.
Like all the way to the back.
So you're still looking at 500.
That's crazy.
500 people.
Mm-hmm.
Do you do the circular state?
Like you go behind you?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Because the first time I ever opened for him, he was like, he was like, dude, you killed.
But you got to turn around.
Yeah, man.
The whole time I was just looking, because your face is a-
Well, it's like jarring the first time you've done it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's a show shock, dude.
Yeah.
Yeah.
All of a sudden, you're Shakira.
Yeah.
You have to.
Shake your ass in every direction.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I had to pig out.
Yeah, man.
I figured it out.
Yeah.
But yeah, it's fucking wild.
It's got to be crazy.
It's so fun watching Shane blow up like that, man.
It's like...
You're going to be proud.
It's so proud.
And every single fucking week, you're just like, what?
You forget.
And I have to constantly be like, the uncle being like,
fucking don't forget this.
This is pretty fucking cool.
Don't forget this.
And then you scream at the audience for 20 minutes.
What's your fucking problem, guy?
There's 40,000 people all being like, we're having fun.
I thought we're having fun.
I'm so sensitive to him
I go out there
and just lose my shit.
You guys be good to him.
You guys,
that's my boy.
He's crying.
You're not fucking proud I am.
Well,
you had to all
You're like,
oh,
I got to turn around.
In general,
though,
you're not proud?
You got to cry.
You got to cry.
What's your problem?
Oh,
what's this fucking
I did good,
yeah?
You saw me talk shit
behind me.
Yeah.
I turned to talk shit.
Turned to talk shit.
Well,
yeah,
you also have to think,
though,
some people just laugh like this.
People just enjoy things to themselves, but as a performer, you feel like you're doing a bad job if they're not like, you know, like, give a smiling, giving a thumbs up.
It's like, no, some guys like just sit there like this and they're like, front row.
That's killer.
Yeah, they go.
It's a killer.
It is killer.
You have to remind yourself to that.
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah.
Some people are just like, he's having an awesome time.
Yes.
But it's not enough.
But he's just got like a grunt style t-shirt on.
He's just got like a black rifle coffee.
That's like his persona.
He's like, I can't smile at this guy.
I'm a fucking.
Oh, there's definitely.
still probably those guys was like if I laugh I'm gay
100% yeah yeah I mean I've done I've done like
trying to laugh challenge well that's the white version I've done
like black rooms in Atlanta guys doing hookah they're not
half paying attention where it's like again if you're if I laugh
I'm giving something to a man right it's like yeah it's checking my manhood
yeah and then you see him in the lobby's like man you're funny he's fucking yeah
you're wild boy we're thank you so much yeah thank you
you want to follow my social shit
I ain't gay
I gave her
I ain't got all that
you gave her
yeah because a black
a black guy complimenting your set
is the best
a white guy saying
good set you go yeah thanks
a black guy
you go really like it
did you actually like it
no
there's two of the greatest
black compliments
right
a black guy stop you on the street
about your snakes
and a black lady
at the end of closing time
at a liquor store
will give you the most love
that you've ever experienced in your life
you're saying if some guy likes your shoes
a black guy likes your shoes he's going to give you a lot of compliments
yeah just just simple compliment
on my sneaks yeah
what's the best one you got with the woman
they go fucking ham
are you talking like the last 45 minutes of a liquor store shift
when you're saying compliments what kind of compliments
does she give you stuff does she
no no just gives you all their affection and love
yeah that you weren't receiving otherwise
damn baby wait you
where you come from?
You handsome as shit.
I like that shirt.
Yes.
You look good.
There's several comics with bits about this
that a black women's compliment is
top notch.
It's the most uplifting, yeah.
Of course.
Right.
It can really, but catch her
in the beginning of a shift.
You wore their own shoes.
Yeah, you're switching towns.
You're going from Atlanta
and Austin, Texas.
Josh walking out,
looking at a sort of man,
there's really boys
in the hood in the hair.
Geez, guys.
The mistakes
straight out of cops too
with boys in the hood.
Do not shop on hair.
So funny.
So funny.
Yeah.
That's,
I mean,
that's classic.
Pretty bad.
It's like top tier bad.
It's something I would say.
And you guys would laugh.
Remember when Lawrence Fishburn
gave Cuba Gooding Jr.
AIDS guys,
remember that?
And boys in the hood.
They couldn't touch Ricky because he had AIDS and who's bleeds
They couldn't provide medical assistance right away
Yeah
The blood was upstream
It was going on the floor
Wasn't the plastic on the couch where Ricky bleeds out
Boys in the Hood?
Is that like a behind the scenes thing?
No, I don't know
Oh, they do, they bring him into the house, they do
I forgot about it.
Like a wap couch, yeah, wasn't there was a plastic on it?
wouldn't that be so funny then
and then whoever put it on there's like
fuck I do it man
they're tragic but they're like
so glad I'm so glad I mean
my son's gonna get his fucking face
blown off at some point
we can all agree it's tragic
Ricky's gone but we can also agree
what a call
I told you
everybody complained for years
everybody complained
you know where we live
leave the plastic on
and they're like RIP
Uncle Junebug
he was the one
who told us to keep the plastic on
It is Uncle Jimbaugh.
Case we lose his son.
You got to him to promote?
Yeah, I'm going on tour.
We're kind of the Boys in the Hood tour.
Yeah, I like that.
Better than the Detroiters.
Storm in the beaches.
Dr. Goldstein, leading the charge.
RIP, Goldstein.
He's got to be dead.
Was he a pretty old guy?
guy when you were checking. Yeah, I think it was like 65. That's where you get the realest guys.
They just don't give a shit anymore. They don't. My favorite
one of my favorite characters and Louis was the doctor. Yeah. What he would just tell him.
Yeah. Louis's like, yeah, my, he would like set his back or his ankle hurt or something and the doctor's just like,
you know there's a disease where your bones dissolve? He just says it to him. What's you're
worried about is irrelevant. There's a disease where your bones dissolve. Get out of my
office it's something to that it's something like that yeah yeah that's great that's kind of how
my dad was growing up when you come home like bitching about something like grade's cool
then he's like get the fuck out of the room like I don't have time to talk to you yeah you know
hard regular life is yes I'm feeding you every day that's a other thing from boys in the hood
they have a moment yeah Cuba gonna junior yeah acting up a little bit yeah and he starts
asking too many questions yeah Lawrence Fispern says because I'm your dad yeah
my job is to put food on the table
100%. It's one of those tea as the talk.
Yeah.
Because as a kid, you don't realize
like how powerful that is.
And you just, yeah, you just have no idea
what it takes.
Just to keep this fucking roof.
Oh, dude.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, I feel like there's like a, I don't know,
there's an innate fire that burns in my fucking belly about,
I look at my dog and my girl sometimes
and I'm like, you fucking, you know, how do I work for you?
Yeah.
So it's a little flit.
of the lighter fluid
into your spirit

yeah it comes up fast
but then it goes away
it gets me fired up yeah
yeah and I see a check
and then I gotta go to Petco
