What, in the studio?
Yeah.
Yeah, that'd be fucking sweet.
Are you gonna set it up like Rogies?
Exactly like that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I prefer that situation.
That way anytime you talk to some fucking idiot that's not entertaining you, you can watch TV.
Actually, I should throw the football game on.
We should do it all the time.
Not even a special.
Yeah, yeah.
Not even a special stream.
I don't know.
Shane was saying that they brought a TV in for a little bit and it was like fucking with them.
Yeah, of course. it's a visual well like and it's like if you can reference things really fast it almost like can grind things to a halt yeah you're like pull that up instead of
just struggling it's tough i mean dabby does that with like uh ufc shit but like you start watching
ufc you can't just like peek in and then come back out you got to talk about this dude getting
right i'm saying but they were doing it like during the podcast.
It's one thing if you do like a special event.
Then it's like it doesn't matter that you're not talking because you hope people should be watching along.
Let's fire it up.
With you.
It's fired.
Oh, we're fired.
Are we in?
Yeah.

He don't tell you.
Sneaky ninja.

Can't use the word ninja.
Can you just stop? Can't be using the word ninja. Oh, you just stopped.
Can't be using the word ninja.
No, it's weird.
No, you talk too fast.
No, no, no.
I really do.
It's crazy.
It's crazy.
Because ninja is the word you use to replace it.
No, it's not.
By proxy, it's close to the great word.
Speaking of fucking nicks, I was hoping you'd show up with paint on your fucking face. I do have paint on my face. Oh, he's got be outlawed. It's close to the great word. Speaking of fucking nicks. It'll be outlawed soon.
I was hoping you'd show up with paint on your fucking face.
I do have paint on my hand.
Oh, he's got paint on his hands.
I'm just painting my hair.
There is a big clump somewhere.
I can feel it.
You got an Irish accent that thick.
You better have paint on you somewhere.
It's just hair gel.
It does all the time.
It's from years.
Yeah.
It's like, do you ever scrape on a wall and it has all the different layers of paint?
Layers and colors.
That's my hand.
Yeah, yeah.
When you get cut.
Joe's like fucking rose colored paint from 32 is he
count the rings of paint on this irish guy's hands yeah so no you got you have a beer you
know in manhattan at 3 p.m sometimes yeah and it's just you know a hundred of these guys with
with paint and like old wood chips in their ears yeah yeah just walking
down the street covered in paint yeah i'm always jealous of those guys i tried to paint my parents
deck once like i could paint a wall yeah but painting like a deck with a railing and like
getting in in the nooks and crannies oh yeah it's hard i always see these old uh like old
degos and greeks out here and they they have like hand
chippers getting rid of the layers of paint off the railings if you paint on a railing on top
of another it's a nightmare yeah nightmare you gotta do it every time you gotta do it every
layer so it looks like snow on a tree yeah yeah it's when you move into a place and like the
the electrical socket is like yeah it doesn't even look like it's there.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's been out and in.
There's just the holes.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You got a girl on this?
Put the light on?
You take a drill and drill a pilot hole?
Yeah, I've been begging the fucking...
Our landlord to paint this place.
This is the same original paint from like 40 years ago.
Oh, this? Yeah, yeah. This, I think, paint from like 40 years ago. Oh, this?
Yeah.
This, I think,
was actually kind of nicely done.
Of course you did.
Are you adding more art?
By the way?
What?
Yeah, I think so.
We're all already,
we've art overdosed.
No.
Was it always?
This is the hide the old paint.
No, it was not like this.
This was empty
until like two months ago.
We got to get you in here
to paint this place.
I'll throw you some quotes.
I hope you like blue.
Yeah.
That's the only paint you got It's a nice color
It's not bad right
But now
Then I looked at it
It looks kind of like
An influencer wall
No
Maybe it's because
There's nothing on it
It's just an empty wall
Just blue
And I looked at it
And I was like
Oh shit
Did I just like
An annoying chick
I feel like that shit's so hard
Like we were
We were thinking about
Getting like a neon sign For a second Yeah And it's like it it's it's like it does look cool
but then it's like it feels like it's yeah it's not us i think the neon signs yeah it's it's kind
of yeah i know i know you have a hanging and then like the wires was in the middle of the screen
that's the way it's worse we said that's the worst. When there's like a wire and you can see the extension.
Hey, welcome.
You don't know how to hide it.
It's just laying on the wall.
Welcome to Jim Will Fix It, where I list nine spices every week.
You see it on HGTV at like 3.30 in the morning, blacked out.
You're like, this is fucking beautiful.
I'm probably going to do this place for our place.
Like, you don't know.
You want to replicate what you think is
interesting in other people's spaces and that's why i put plants behind us you know what i mean
this is us we're playing we're playing yeah we are playing five nice yeah it changes how you feel
and think in the morning you do help it is nice sunlight going through a plant sunlight nice
you've never opened those blinds once.
It's a lot. When I wake up in the morning
these blinds are always closed.
Yeah, yeah. Because I open them, Shane wakes
up and closes them.
It's a fucking dungeon in here.
Just passive aggressive.
Who opened these?
There's too much glare on the TV for
video games.
Who opened these? I don't care glare on the TV for video games. Who opened these?
And I don't care.
I'll sit in the dark.
Well, this is fucking good for you, huh?
What?
The new studio.
The new studio, yeah, yeah.
Taking a big risk.
It's just a jerk-off layer.
It's like a podcast studio.
The big risk, what?
Financially, just to rent the place?
Just put all my money into something.
Yeah, but you're doing it twice a week, you said.
You have to.
Because you're paying for it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. If you didn't pay for but you're doing it twice a week, you said. You have to. Because you're paying for it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
If you didn't pay for it,
you do it once a week.
Exactly.
You know what I mean?
Exactly.
I mean, yeah, yeah.
We put pretty much
our last...
I know.
We invested.
Our last few pennies
into this thing.
Yeah, yeah.
So far.
You got two nice microphones
and then the guest.
Yes, the best of the best.
And then the guest mic.
Put it on the ground.
Dude, we're saving up for a good week. We're saving're saving up we're saving up it's just a black dildo with foam on it
you're not even plugged in dude you're just here for our fodder
a couple free bud lights and you're good no i am happy with a couple of bud lights to be honest
yeah this is the look i need I'm going with Blue Moon
you know
I like
pregnant lady
it's refreshing to see a comic
that looks like he fell through
like a
a lost and found box
you know what I mean
yeah
Christmas time
I'm gonna say this
I actually think he looks pretty good
no he looks great
those are nice
NBA
they got a zipper pocket
and a regular pocket
yeah
that means he didn't buy them
those are fucking sick
you watch the NBA
no
yeah
see
never accidentally he picked those up but they aren't I would buy these again these were on the carpet Yeah, that means he didn't buy them. Those are fucking sick. You watch the NBA? No. Yeah, see? Never.
Accidentally.
He picked those up.
But I would buy these again.
These were on the carpet of an old moving job he had.
And he's like,
Yeah, do you ever get shit moving?
No.
No.
You can, but I haven't.
Yeah, yeah.
People always try coffee tables, really.
I probably wouldn't buy a coffee table.
I'd just wait.
But then you're waiting.
And then you're like, Wait, wait, wait, wait. What do you mean? Because people try out stuff when they're moving. So you wouldn't buy a coffee table I'd just wait but then you're waiting and then you're like
wait wait wait
what do you mean
because people throw out
stuff when they're moving
so you wouldn't buy
a coffee table
you'd wait to see
to run into one
on the street
in the summer
I would take that risk
because people throw
out shit all the time
it goes quick here
it goes quick here
no I'm not talking
I'm talking before
it gets to the street
because I work
for a moving company
so when we show up
a lot of times
they go alright
all this stuff is gone.
That stuff ain't going.
Up to you guys.
Everybody wants to take it.
Yeah.
So people take stuff all the time.
Some people's whole house is just.
You've never taken one thing?
I'm not going to.
Oh,
I took some sound panels actually.
Some what?
Like soundproofing.
Oh yeah,
yeah.
Legit high end soundproofing.
Yeah.
I was moving someone out of,
I guess they used to
Record podcasts there
And they were like
We're getting rid of this stuff
I was like
That's like $200 each
And they're like yeah
I used to do
That's a huge get
That was a huge one
Yeah
Do you ever have
Like someone's like
I'm not even gonna
Bring this TV
And you guys
Rocks paper scissors for it
No
I haven't come across
A TV
AC units
People have taken
Yeah
Mostly coffee tables
For some reason Something about coffee tables for some reason.
Something about coffee tables
people are like,
yeah.
When people start over
the first cut.
Well, you can't carry it
by yourself.
That's what it is.
Because most of those scavengers
are solo rollers.
You know what I mean?
What do you mean?
Like, it's like an old guy
with ill-fitting pants
who has a limp
and he's walking down the street
looking for free shit.
I've given fans
to old men with limps consistently
because they're always, you don't lose that mindset.
So you're saying you can carry a coffee table with a limp
is what you're saying?
No, I'm saying you can't.
And that's why they leave the big shit
because they're not going to ask their old fucking
dilapidated wife to grab the other end
and walk it 17 blocks
because you know they're not fucking paying for a cab.
But they've got a moving company.
No, I know what he's talking about.'m saying like when i get rid of shit we throw
something out yeah you put it on the curb as i'm putting it on the curb i run into like three or
four people yeah you don't realize how many people are in new york yeah until you see the piles of
trash emanating filth and you're like wow there's probably 150 people in this it is crazy looking
that's probably how you get away with murder.
You need to stop chopping up your stuff and putting them in bags.
Just put out the whole weapon.
The whole wife.
The whole weapon.
The whole couch.
Stop chopping up your wife.
That's what they're saying.
You don't have to.
Other people live in your building.
Put her out in one piece.
Stuff her in a couch and leave her there.
Turn around and it's gone.
Imagine walking your dead wife that you just murdered out and just handed it off to an
old man with a limp.
Like, I'll take it.
My vacuum don't work.
I need one of these.
That's the tough part about killing.
Because you only ever really want to kill someone you know.
That's why serial killers get away with all their escapades.
Right, because you kill people you don't know.
Like, you're impossible to find.
There's no connective tissue.
Yeah.
There's no way this guy fucking killed her.
There isn't.
It's true.
Right, you need a story.
Yeah, yeah.
Who harmed you?
The first questions they would ask you is like, who's out to get you?
Who are your enemies?
Yeah.
Charlie had no enemies.
Well, who would kill Charlie?
Yeah, that's the thing.
Charlie was the nicest guy.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Meanwhile, Charlie's just getting sucked off of the Roy Rogers,
and the hooker had enough.
Yeah, yeah.
Stabs him in the fucking chest,
and then goes to Maryland and does it again.
I like this story.
You're really reversing the hookers killing Charlie.
Yeah.
Women empowerment.
It's 2022.
It's propaganda.
You better get your fucking head out of your ass.
You think a man's killing a woman these days?
You think it's a serial killer killing all these hookers?
No.
It's hookers are killing the serial killer.
Yeah, they're killing competition.
Yeah.
I get it.
It's time for them, dude.
See, I think the thing with a coffee table is that it is the anchor of any room, I think.
Yeah, for sure.
It is the most important item.
So when you're going to a new place, you're like, let's start over.
And this is why you take your bare feet and the shit underneath them and just drop it on a coffee table.
That's right.
You got to respect the coffee table.
No, it's a workhorse.
No.
No, no, no.
It is.
It's there to hold items.
I'm the workhorse.
It's there to hold items.
With a broom and a dustpan.
Yeah.
No, you're a Trojan horse.
I'm the workhorse.
If you're starting over,
like your first cut is the coffee table.
Nothing makes someone happier than replacing
a coffee table am i right i'll disagree with this starting over yeah you get rid of it but that's
that's not that's not the most important piece what you're sitting on is the most important
the least sitting and then it has to yes that's a you start with a seat you build out you know
what i got into in my late 30s? All modern. The teens.
I think you start with a coffee table and build around the coffee table.
That know how to color.
No, fucking mid-century modern.
The style.
Yeah.
I know.
Look, I'm sorry.
The words.
Yeah, well, it's true. So this is important visually as it is comfort-wise.
This is middle village.
Yeah. Which is a neighborhood in Queens. Yeah. This is What is this? Important visually as it is comfort wise This is middle village Yeah
Which is in
I like
Neighborhood and Queens
Yeah
I like the vibe of
In your bum
That's what I'll get out of Jeffery
Dude who's that guy you were telling me today would do this?
Oh I can't say his name
Some fucking comic
That's your punchline?
Yeah
You can say a punchline and go,
Woo!
What?
Howdy!
It was for every punchline
because his jokes were so bad.
He'd be like,
Woo!
Hey!
Were they bad jokes?
They were so bad.
And the point is,
I tell bad jokes.
I'm that guy.
Yeah.
I hate that.
But he would do,
he was like,
slap his hands around and oh my god we were
everyone just start laughing at him yeah and as we were talking like you do six shows with somebody
they walk back in the green room you can't be like what the was that you have to be like oh man
that was freaking great and then you're exhausted you said he was doing well he was like headlining
clubs that would be so no no i think he was just headlining this club. Oh, okay.
Yeah, it's definitely a B-tier type dude.
I was going to say, that would be so disorienting as a comic coming up.
Yeah, questioning everything I was doing.
I was like, what am I doing with this guy?
Seeing that guy just rise fast.
He was like, booz-a-zip, pow!
I just felt like he was going to be like,
oh, you want to jump in my moving truck and go to Reno for the next set of shows?
You want to go paint a house,
make a couple extra bucks on the side?
Whoop!
Hey!
It was fucking nuts, dude.
I know his name, too.
I'll tell you afterwards.
Okay.
It's so funny.
But were they intentionally bad jokes?
That's what I...
No.
I hate when comics come and do it like,
ah, you know, that's a bad joke.
Yeah, but we can all do that.
Yeah.
Fuck off.
Yeah. No, they weren't. We've gone through the cycle do it like ah you know that's a bad joke right yeah well we can all do that yeah fuck off yeah
no they weren't we've gone through the cycle of like people trying to tell real jokes then people
making fun of trying to tell real jokes and then that's gotten hack and now we're back to like
try to please try to do it please yeah yeah please try to actually do it yeah the old shit was like
was big like 10 years ago there's like like three or four alt comics in Philly.
And just like, what are we doing here?
Yeah, yeah.
Why are we entertaining?
They'd go up and be like, I hate my wife.
Yeah.
And you're like, I honestly, I love that humor.
I got to tell you.
People abuse that like, oh, my wife's a fat whore.
That's great.
Look at us.
We're dying.
We're dying. That's the bread and butter. We're dying.
That's the bread and butter
of any conversation.
No,
yeah.
Conflict,
relatable.
Well,
because,
yeah,
if you get enough exposure
to people being like,
I hate my wife,
isn't that hack?
You start to be like,
you know what?
I wish one of these guys
did hate their wife.
Yeah,
yeah,
yeah.
So they could fucking tell me about it.
I'm tired of someone trying to like, turn the mirror back on the, you know. Yeah, Yeah. They can fucking tell me about it. I'm tired of someone trying to like turn the mirror back on the,
you know,
as long as it's genuine,
you know,
if it's disingenuous,
it comes off like you're trying to get a rile out of,
uh,
like a white trash town.
You know,
you're in Kansas city,
a bunch of like goateed animals.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But they don't even get the irony.
Yeah.
It was like,
yeah,
yeah.
This is a setup. Yeah. I'm gonna beat the shit out of their wife. Yeah, but they don't even get the irony. Yeah, they're like, yeah, yeah. This is great.
This is a setup.
I'm going to beat the shit out of my wife.
And then we're like, whoop, whoop, whoop.
They get to the end, they're like, it didn't really seem like he hated his wife.
Yeah.
I didn't really believe that.
Not sure what was going on with that.
He said he hated his wife, but then.
I like when wives do it about their husbands too Where they just go
My husband's a fat retard
And he keeps leaving a wet towel
On the bed
Yeah
Because he's so stupid
I don't know why
I'm like yeah
That's great
I love that
Yeah
So it's the same thing
Yeah
We all know those people
What?
Yeah
I'm like yeah
We're all
We are retards
And you guys are bitches
And that's the
Right
Yeah it's a dynamic for eternity
That's it
Yeah
But you can change.
You can start researching mid-century modern furniture.
It's deep.
It's the fabric.
You start wearing cologne.
It's deep in there.
You clean the paint off your hands.
You know?
Take a dance class, do a little salsa.
The building I was in doesn't have any hot water, I guess.
What?
Where are you at?
Midtown?
Midtown, yeah.
What street? Can you say it? I don't know. In the 30s? No, it's in the 30 where are you at? Midtown? Midtown yeah what street?
can you say it?
I don't know
in the 30s
oh true Midtown
are we talking 7th and 8th?
Garment district
Garment
oh okay
yeah
so it's old
a lot of fabrics
it's old
it's not too old
I don't know
I guess
you know
it's like one of those
things where you're
pressing it
and you're trying
to wash all this
I've been in the
Garment district
I'm a big fan of I gave it a go pressing it. Yeah. I tried to wash all this. I've been in the garment.
I'm a big fan of like, I gave it a go.
I'm out of here.
I'll do that without wiping my ass.
I'm not sitting there all day.
That'll do for now.
And I'll let it just fall off naturally.
Yeah, it dries out.
Then your ass cheeks kind of like crying the rest off.
You shake it off the inside of your leg like Shawshank Redemption.
Jesus Christ walking around the street looking at old chest feces
in the garden
there's a mound
yeah dude
oh man
ripping butts
I wish
one of Cone's
favorite hobbies
I wish I didn't
dumping his shit out
on the street
I shit like an old
sick pug
like you know what I mean
like I could never
imagine it like a hard
dense rock
and then like
shuddering it out
of my fucking
loose pant leg.
I'm a dog
that you have to
wrap medicine
and cheese
and be like,
come here, Buffy.
Come here, Buffy.
A dog that got into
something that shouldn't have.
Yeah.
Ah, fuck.
Yeah, I've been
licking the paint
off your hands
and then I just have
watery dumps
going down my
Ship in the bowl with a fucking 100 mile an hour liquid you put on Frankie I
Go back and forth. I have eclectic.
You put on music, though.
Want a shower?
No, I take a shit.
Oh, I always go. Well, it's a shit shower combo.
I go do it before the shower.
Yeah, yeah.
I'm a fucking human being.
I try to match it up, too.
Do you?
Yeah, pre-shit.
You take a shit, get in the shower.
Then at least you're clean for a little bit.
Every time my dog took a dump growing up, we'd bathe her.
No, I'm kidding. But that's what they should's what they should bathe your dog too much no all right here we go chris
chris allows dogs to stay here for like a stretch at a time he doesn't fucking hold on chris let me
get this out no no it was two dogs so far, you've only been here a year and a half. Yeah.
Won't say anything.
I'll open the door and the dog's like,
I'm like, fuck.
All right, this has nothing to do with the bathing.
Immediately, an asshole dog.
Great dog when you get to know him.
But it takes like days to get to know the dog.
So I think it's- It took you 30 minutes.
It took at least a day and a half
for me to open the bedroom door
and this thing not fucking bite my ankles.
Yeah, he loves the dog.
And the thing's not bathed.
It smells like shit. It smells like an old wet rug and it's it's just sleeping on the on the couches and shit so like i want to pet him but like i'm like the dog stinks
go bathe the dog and he's like dog doesn't stink i'm like dog stinks you gotta wash your dog you
know when you smell after two three days of not not bathing? You stink. Go take a fucking bath.
You can't wash a dog
every three days.
You can wash a dog
once a week.
It's not a lot.
Is it once a week?
Once a week?
Not that I own a dog,
but once a week.
No.
Everything,
you ever walk into a house
and immediately smell
dog everywhere?
Yeah.
That's a disgusting family.
Yeah.
That's a family
that should be
cleansed themselves.
That's a family
that shits
and doesn't wash themselves.
No, that's a family
that loves one another
and doesn't have people over very often. No, you should have, listen dude. It doesn't wash themselves no that's a family that loves one another and doesn't have people over very often
no you said
it doesn't fucking matter
who gives a shit
that's a family of recluses
first of all if you got little kids and a dog
your house should smell like shit
no clean the kids and the dog
no no no
cleaning is so far down the list
I know trust me we know this is your argument No, no, no. Yeah, run the bathwater all the time. Cleaning is so far down the list.
I know.
Trust me.
We know this is your argument.
Yes.
The priority is making good people.
Yeah.
On the next Patreon, we're going to take a video of all your shit.
And understand that this is your mentality.
Yeah.
And I'm a good person.
You are a good person. You're just a terrible cleaner.
Exactly.
And your ass looks like a yard sale.
I got my priorities straight.
Yeah, that doesn't bother me
You can't clean?
You just don't
Oh no
I just
Emotionally I find it
Very challenging
No he truly has a mental block
Where he'll leave
This
As soon as it's empty
That's full of water
I'm drinking
It'll be there forever
He's drinking
Yeah
I know but when it's empty
How long has it been there
For weeks?
Well he keeps refilling
So he doesn't have to
Throw it out
This morning
It's a good strategy
See here's This is I feel like I stumbled Across something Recently with my girl for weeks. Well, he keeps refilling so he doesn't have to throw it out. This morning's... It's a good strategy.
This is... I feel like I stumbled
across something recently
with my girl.
She does all the cleaning, right?
Well, she will say
she does all the chores.
My thing is
she does the chores first.
Yeah.
That's the argument.
She's like, I do them.
It's like, no,
you do them first.
I do them second,
but they're already done.
I am doing
them she just she's just too what kind of chores we talking cleaning the scrub in the bathroom
i think that i think that can take out of your league that that can be every few weeks where she
does not agree with my timeline yeah yeah so that's why she cleans it all the time does that
make sense i would do it yes but she's too she's too early I just said this to him in the kitchen
too early to the airport
prior to this
prior to this podcast
yes
I'd spend most of my hours
in the day
cleaning certain things
and grinding my fucking teeth
and biting my tongue
cursing him under my breath
going what am I fucking
this guy's made
I'm this guy's fucking made
is that why I'm here
where's my hair
I'm going to go after your shit
where's my little bitch, April?
And you're right.
It does turn into that relationship thing
where when they want to be mad at you,
but they have nothing to be mad about,
they start cleaning shit
so they have something over you.
Is that what they do?
Yeah, that is fucking what they do.
That is what they do.
Do you think I need something to be mad at you?
You'll figure it out.
Yeah, you're like,

You want something to be pissed about.
You're like,
I'm going to clean something.
He's eating KFC for breakfast.

Dude, I've never understood those people.
I don't have any use for a robe.
Robes are wonderful.
I know they are, but it's like, when am I going to wear it?
No, I'm not wearing it.
You can't be bringing robes in.
You've got to break the cycle of your father.
That's what you've got to do.
You've got to break the cycle of an old man's mentality.
The simplistic days of sitting around and doing fucking nothing and refusing.
This is why you said chicken parm is something I cook for you.
My mother has the palate of a fucking mule.
She is brutal.
She can't cook shit.
The Irish side, is it?
Yeah, Irish, of course.
She's brutal.
And then if we took her to a Stephen Starr restaurant, a five-star restaurant, Michelin
restaurant, whatever the fuck it is,
she'd be like,
Mom, this is a very nice dinner.
It's for a special occasion.
She goes,
Oh, no, I can't eat that.
Tom, no, no.
We went to a restaurant.
We went to a restaurant.
It's called Tallulah's Garden.
It takes a year to get a reservation.
There's two tables.
One for eight people,
one for 12 people.
The menu is set set there's no going
do you have ketchup none of that fucking white trash bullshit the good stuff it's a good sign
you sit down and you go can i yeah yeah yeah don't do that exactly exactly that's yeah yeah yeah like
a hardcore wop would be like you're not going to change anything you know this is a fucking i don't
know why she's german in that situation but So we take her there And she ate nothing
And I told the waitress ahead of time
I was like listen don't take offense
My mother is just from a different time
And she's ignorant
She wouldn't even
She wouldn't even try it
It's got mushrooms Tom
I don't do mushrooms
Fucking try it
I've eaten mushrooms
I hate mushrooms
but I've eaten them a lot
well because they're doing
crazy things with mushrooms
no no no
they're not
they're not
it's just not
you're not
visually it's different
than what you're used to
which is a bunch of slop
on a plate
like you're feeding
a fucking horse
that's what I'm
we're agreeing
I'm saying they're doing
wonderful things
with mushrooms
I have to change his face
he's like
yeah yeah yeah
I'm saying
well you gotta
you gotta keep your guard up.
You can see him go,
oh, shit.
I'm saying that it's...
He's agreeing with me.
Dude, it's one out of a thousand.
He goes, I'm agreeing, Ian.
Well, I'm still...
Well, fuck you, Chris.
No, I'm still mad.
That's what I'm saying.
It's like, mom,
they're not just boiling the mushrooms
and putting them on your plate.
She would eat them if you did.
Are these saltless, boiled, white-butt mushrooms?
Steve, this is the greatest restaurant I've ever been to.
Yeah, it's like, it won't even taste like a mushroom, probably.
You'll get a hint of that, and it'll be something other, you know.
Yeah, listen, I'll say this, too.
Parents that go, oh, my son's a picky eater.
No, he's not.
You made him that way because you're a fucking picky eater.
He doesn't like mustard.
No, give him something.
My niece is running around with like fucking shrimp.
Like one and a half.
Just gnawing on shrimp.
Like little fucking queens.
Yeah, that sounds amazing.
That's weird.
It is weird.
That's like, that's weirder than someone who eats mustard.
A kid's palate is open.
Yeah.
Dipping it in the sauce.
It's, it someone who eats a monster. A kid's palate is... There's a little kid munching on a shrimp. It's open. Yeah. Dipping it in the sauce. It's...
What's going on?
There's no fucking...
There's no bias in a kid's palate.
It's brand fucking new.
I don't think you remember being a kid.
There is, for sure.
I don't...
I remember being a kid being forced through my mother's own fucking lens.
No, but also...
And that's why I'm so aggressive about it.
It's bullshit.
When you're a kid, eating fucking sucks.
It's not because it's not like, you know, high cuisine.
It's just like, I want to be playing.
I'm only awake for so long.
Bedtime's coming.
Because you have four.
We had four meals.
That was it.
Lasagna.
That was like thick noodles that turned out to be fucking cheese soup.
Wow. Because my mother didn't know how to like properly cook it.
It's like he's in
the witness protection.
You call this lasagna?
It's thick noodles.
Like a schmuck.
God damn it.
Oklahoma sucks.
And then you'd have
like a chicken,
a chicken parm.
You'd have like meatballs
in a fucking
slow cooker
and like grilled cheese
and then you just
rotate it
we called my father
Rigatoni Steve
growing up
cause that's all he
was rigatonis
and then he
once a week
they would give him
a steak
and my father
wouldn't give us
the steak
he's like
this is mine
this is what we
fought for
but dude
I don't know
my brother
gets like
blue aprons
and shit
right
he's lazy
learn how to cook that is lazy. Learn how to cook.
That is how you learn how to cook.
Someone sends you.
You're right.
It's step one.
But if you continue blue aprons for years, shout out to blue apron.
If you want to.
But it's also easy.
Sponsor our podcast.
It's easy.
It is easy.
It doesn't.
And it's just, it's simple.
You go fast.
But here's the thing.
He's always trying to share it with his kids.
And that's like good shit.
That is.
There's a lot of good shit in there.
But it's like they want hot dogs and noodles that are salted chris i'm not
saying yeah yeah that's what kids want you shouldn't pass the no sauce spoil your children
with pop tarts fucking grilled cheese hot dogs all that shit it shouldn't be the only meal they
eat all the time because then they just reduce their vision for cuisine like like a you know
expanding their palate and then
when they get to like i don't know 72 like my mom she goes oh i can't eat that i couldn't possibly
eat that steam now there's no why do you think she like what type of food was she brought up on
same shit well she had fucking she's she's one of 11 yeah her father was working seven jobs and
then beating the fuck out of him when he got home.
So they didn't have time.
Other than boiled
hot dogs.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
But yeah, yeah, yeah.
The Irish life, you
know?
Yeah, of course.
He came home with
paint in his hands.
Fuck it.
She won't go with
paint on her face.
She's got a pack of
cold hot dogs over her
eye in the morning.
She came to. She doesn't remember what happened. She's like, I gotta start painting. Over her eye in the morning She came to
She doesn't remember what happened
She's like
I gotta start painting
He might hit you
But at least it doesn't make me
Eat mushrooms
One time my dad hit me
With a pack of mushrooms
I'll never eat them again
No he's
Look
It's a stretch
I took it far
But I'm saying
I'm tired of going
To people's houses
Like they can't eat that
Give her a piece of cheese I bet you she likes it Don't tell her What she's houses like they can't eat that. Give her a piece of cheese.
I bet you she likes it.
Don't tell her what she's going to like.
You don't know that.
Picky is telling another child.
She's telling another adult my child's a picky eater.
It's like, no, they're not.
They won't.
They are.
They won't eat it.
That's because you're allowing them to go.
You sit there and you eat the fucking peas.
You don't like peas.
Yeah, you think so?
Yeah.
You lock them in a room
My brother used to put lima beans
In his face
Like on the sides underneath his tongue
In the sides of his cheek
And then hide them in his face
And then go up to our bedroom and spit them in a trash can
I thought he was doing a
Marlon Brando. Okay, you're on the... You're on the...
Yeah, then you just impersonate Marlon Brando.
Yeah, your dad would probably seek vengeance on behavior like that.
I have lost a son.
I also feel bad for him because when I see him eat real meals,
he's like...
You can see it in his eyes.
It's like, holy shit.
Who, your brother?
It's like a dog seeing color for the first time.
My father,
like when he goes to a restaurant,
like he loves Applebee's.
He's like,
the wings are great.
I'm like,
that's because flavor never hits your tongue.
It's an explosion.
Go to a real restaurant with my pop.
That was a great time.
There is a,
my dad,
my dad has a tough time with it.
If you're beaten down in life,
why be beaten down in eating at dinner
That is a time
That you should be spoiling yourself
Every single time
Your dad's supposed to have a bad palate
This is just like an old age
That's what I'm saying
We're no longer
Don't extend that ignorance
Go to Brooklyn, all those people walking around
Their parents eat foie gras and shit.
And that's the kids they produce.
I hear you.
That's what happens.
I hear you.
There's a level of...
If your dad likes tomatoes,
you're a queef.
They're like, what?
I kind of agree with this.
It's like,
save culinary exploration
for later in life.
I get that.
Really?
You're missing the point.
The point is,
I'm not saying it's up to them
eventually to explore the culinary world. i'm not saying it's up to them eventually to explore yeah the culinary
world i'm not saying that yeah what i'm saying is don't inhibit your child's potential at a very
early age because they believe this you tell them they don't like this and then you keep that from
them for years eventually they come around 10 years goes by 15 years go by they're 25 years old
finally have a mushroom and go i thought i hated mushrooms you didn't hate mushrooms because your
mom told you hated mushrooms no because your mom hates mushrooms i hated mushrooms i still hate
mushrooms i hate chris if i cook mushrooms for you and didn't tell you there were mushrooms you'd be
like this is fucking amazing what is it no and i'm like they're mushrooms you're eating a mushroom
ravioli and you thought it was meat I like mushrooms now yeah when it's hidden
you start cumming all over that couch
and I have to clean it up
out of respect
you could also cum in the ravioli
and just not tell us
and then I'm
by your logic
I love cum now
it's a bechamel sauce
what are you talking about
obviously if it's in a gigantic
pasta dish
it doesn't matter
what are you fucking
just make an actual mushroom
the mushroom is
the mushroom suck
you gotta hide it visually
for animals
I hate mushrooms also by the way just so you know I'm also I know who I'm talking to Mushroom, the mushroom is the mushroom suck. You've got to hide it visually for animals to eat.
I hate mushrooms also, by the way.
I know who I'm talking to.
There's a reason I'm bringing this up to this Irish couch.
Mushrooms are the only one that I just,
no matter how much I'll try and force myself to,
I just can't.
What about a portobello, like a grilled portobello?
No, I've eaten them, and I'll eat them.
If someone gave me, if you made me a meal and it was covered in mushrooms, just I'll eat it, and I'll say them, and I'll eat them. If someone gave me, if you made me a meal,
and it was covered in mushrooms, just I'll eat it,
and I'll say nothing, and I'll fucking.
And then go home.
That's the greatest thing I've ever done.
Yeah, no, I'd eat, like, without any other options for burgers,
I'll eat a portobello burger.
Oh, yeah?
Yeah, it's amazing.
It's a mushroom burger.
It's a whole shell of a portobello,
which looks the size of a burger.
But there's no actual beef in it. They just paint it with olive oil, a little bit of garlic. No, don't they actually, like, it's a mushroom burger. It's a whole shell of a portobello, which looks the size of a burger. But there's no actual beef in it.
They just paint it with olive oil, a little bit of garlic.
No, don't they actually grill it?
It's a burger with a mushroom in it.
Oh, they can chop it up.
Some people just keep the whole cap.
I feel like you could probably just put that in between some bread with some ketchup and lettuce.
And I don't even know what's in there.
I order a hamburger, but give me something that looks like a hamburger.
The other side of this coin is I wish I had this mentality.
Of what?
Like eating like a rat.
Eating like a rat.
Yeah.
Like if I just went
in the kitchen
and was like ooh bread
and then just ate
a piece of bread
swallowed once in an hour
like a fucking dog
with peanut butter on top.
See I can enjoy
a piece of bread
and I can also enjoy
the good stuff.
You know?
Alright.
We got a breakthrough.
Yeah. I love the good stuff. I'm just saying mushrooms is the only thing that i can't i've forced myself
to eat them hoping to be part of the mushroom crew i've got this is not me just wasn't born
that way you know what the next cooking show we're gonna do a mushroom thing yeah i'm gonna i'm gonna
gonna sell mushrooms i'm gonna do mushroom three ways for you boys. Mushroom three ways? I'll do it three ways, and I'll fucking...
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
And be honest.
Yeah, yeah.
I bet it's going to be bang.
Bud lights to fucking wash it down.
Yeah.
And that'll be...
We'll put that on the Patreon.
There's only one food that I really...
Like, if you're going to make a sandwich,
and you're not gonna
let me eat it right away
don't put a tomato on it
oh
yeah that's fair
that's my only
tomato's the most overrated
addition to any sandwich
it
a thousand percent is
a fucking
a tomato on a hoagie
get the fuck out of here
yeah I don't do
all you do is push the fucking
the good stuff off
I don't do tomatoes
on sandwiches either
yeah
it's like a wet condom
I don't need you
fucking moving shit around
inside that bread
put a fucking dry condom
yeah
put a dry condom
it's like a wet condom
let me spit on my hand
and do it myself
I hate wet condoms
yeah
dry condoms
alright
now listen
yeah there's not
there's
outside of
outside of sauces
there's no use for tomatoes
I think the trick is
with the kids
is to
do the opposite
Where you go
Oh you don't like mustard
That's good
It's only for adults
You're not allowed to have mustard
And then you go
You're never allowed to have mustard
That's only adults
When you're 18
You can have mustard
And then next thing you know
You'll come home
And your daughter's
Overdosed on mustard
That's what my dad did
With a fucking dick
For mustard
My dad did to me
With pussy
You can't have it.
Seventh grade, I'm like...
Just double fisting pussy.
Did he have to point at your pussy?
My mom...
No, no, no.
My mom comes running down the basement.
I'm like, well, dad said I couldn't have it.
When's the first time you got caught fucking?
I never really got caught.
Got caught?
No, I never really got...
Never really got caught, no.
No one's ever barged into your room?
My brother did once,
but it was just funny.
Yeah.
Because he was probably 20,
so I was 16,
and I was at his house banging my girl.
And he walked into his room, and then she was like,
I don't know, it's called starfish, is it?
So her legs were up, and I didn't move.
And then my brother didn't open the door.
He knocked the door, so the door opened.
I was like a serial killer.
He didn't walk in.
He kicked the door, and the door woke up,
and then he walked in.
And he froze, and then he walked in And I And he froze
And then he just like
Ah
Is this older or younger brother?
My older brother yeah
So he's four years older than me
I've had my parents telling me to
Don't be fucking so loud
What?
Yeah
I've had that
Wait hold on
What year is this?
I mean like
2010
No no I didn't mean that
Like what year
In high school?
Yeah late high school
College
And they would let your girls
Just come over
You could go to the bedroom
I just bring home
One night stands
All the time
In high school?
Not in high school
But late
Maybe last year of high school
Wow
So I was like 17, 18
You come in drunk
With just some stranger
Yeah yeah yeah
Shuffle them up the stairs
Go right to the bedroom
Everyone's already asleep
It's like 4 o'clock
5 o'clock in the morning
you go in
give her a good
fucking
four or five seconds
yeah
give her a good chicken cutlet
yeah
with no spice
yeah
did you know
that you were being loud
I think I hope
I don't know
I've agreed to
but yeah
no salt and pepper
it's the back side
it's all ketchup
I'm still trying to
shoehorn in this food thing
did you know you were being loud no I guess yeah I'm still trying to shoehorn in this food thing.
Did you know you were being loud?
No, I guess, yeah.
You could hear the headboard hitting the wall.
Yeah, well then, yeah, because I'm finding the headboard. Were you connected to your parents' house or room, bedroom?
No, not like, yeah.
Down the hallway.
No, no.
So this Irish bitch is yodeling down the hallway while you're making her.
Well, this was just early days, I guess,
when then you start to learn better techniques of like shoving a pillow yeah yeah putting your hand over her mouth
making sure she's fully dead no but you put the pillow behind the headboard so then it's not there's
no banging that was like a technique that i had to learn the idea of my parents hearing me fucking
would make me so soft
well i guess we're built different I guess we're built different.
You're sitting there hammering a girl.
You know your parents are probably hearing it
and you're going, fuck them.
They can listen.
Yeah, but they'd be too embarrassed to come in and say something.
Well, it's not about getting caught.
It's just knowing that they're there being like,
what the fuck is happening?
Your brain, in terms of the sexual stimulation,
it almost absorbs your brain and your ability to think.
Not me.
It sucks your brain into the head of your penis,
and it's all about feel, pleasure.
Your mind shouldn't be in that.
Not me.
Not me.
I know, you're a crazy person.
I'm like, yeah.
What do you do?
No, this is what we say
as men yeah we can't you can't think there's no emotional capacity this is like an international
thing we all have agreed that men yeah yeah are not held responsible while having an iraq no it
just like if it's if it's too like i don't know if it's too weird i can't do it i wish i could i wish we could talk about
cheating no no no no no the recent story my recent weird bird we'll talk about it we can
talk about on the patreon maybe yeah yeah which is a direct correlation to this this conversation
you know it totally is my my brain starts extending out into the universe and thinking
about like yeah you suck the blood out of your bird when you start yeah yeah i just start like
yeah yeah and if i'm if you don't ever do that if i think my parents would be listening to me
like i've fucked in my parents house and like you know it's like i've done that stuff hell yeah dude
but like if i thought if i thought they were listening i would but it would oh well it's like I've done that stuff. Hell yeah, dude. Nice. But like, if I thought, if I thought they were listening,
I would,
it would,
oh,
break my heart.
Well,
it's not that you think they're listening.
You're kind of going,
nah,
I'm sure they're not listening.
Yeah.
Bang,
bang.
Yeah,
yeah.
There's no way they're listening.
You're like,
no way,
that's,
that's not.
No,
I do,
I'll do it quietly.
I'll do like slow moves.
Just little,
just little.
Yeah,

More like a,
I will ruin sex
To avoid my parents
Just half pumps
Hearing me
Did you take women
To your bedroom

Free reign in the basement

Comforter over

Comforter over what
The floor maybe
The plants

Your genitals
To start fucking
Finger puppets

You had to hide from everyone
Well they can walk down the steps
You didn't
It's not an elevator
That you locked
They would knock
They would knock
So let's say you're 20 years old
And you meet a girl at a bar

Even if you were living at that point
But You'd be like Do you want to come back to my house Yeah I live with my parents Which is Let's say you're 20 years old and you meet a girl at a bar or something. I don't know if you were living at that point,
but you'd be like,

Yeah, I live with my parents,
which was a great time in your life to be able to say that.
And they're like, yeah, of course you do.
Right, right.
What a great time.
Yeah.
You really don't think about it.
Yeah, Christmas break or something,
but you go back to the basement.
Yeah, but it's like, listen,
we're going to the basement.
And then what,
you just have a couch like this?
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah
she wouldn't sit
so once it's a couch
she's not staying
she knows
this is just as crazy
yeah you couldn't stay over
that would be
when are

like I would have the girlfriend
and we would go in the basement
and they would
and your parents would
knock on the door

oh my god
my mother would barge the fuck down.
Oh yeah.
Why?
They were hoping to catch you.
Why?
I know.
Why?
I hear you.
Who does that serve?
No sin.
You're sinning.
She's an Irish Catholic.
I'm fucking sinning.
Just knock on the door a bunch.
You'd think.
You'd think.
Barge in.
Well, I guess just...
Dude, our whole thing was
there was a no-knock policy growing up.
There's no locks on the doors growing up.
My brother and I were in one bedroom. my oldest brother was in the second bedroom there's a small bathroom than my parents bedroom yeah no locks if they want to come in they
barge the fuck in whenever they want they had a lock that's not right one time they should have
locked it and they did it and i walked in and my dad I told this on a previous podcast
I definitely did my dad was under the cover all right dude what you know that
scene in Star Wars where he gets frozen in time like in that fucking wall of
like copper or whatever fuck it is he's under the blanket
and i just see his outline like a crime scene and he's he's going down on my mom
and my mom's blanket is like here and she goes tom close the door and then i just had to pretend
you could just see him you could see him underneath the blanket just the outline of his whole body and
you know his one arm was up here
because it looked like
he was trying to escape
when he heard the handle.
You sure?
Yeah, that's their own fault.
Did he even know?
It is their own fault.
That is their own fault.
Yeah, and I was like seven.
If they hadn't established
a precedent of barging in,
you wouldn't.
That's what I'm saying.
You would have not.
That's what I'm saying.
See?
I'm agreeing with you.
They're hoisted by their own petard.
I'm agreeing with you. yeah dude so that way i
like to aggressively agree no i get it i already did it to you earlier this is great we're getting
it all out this is why i said if my mother wasn't aggressive against fucking mushrooms i would have
liked mushrooms a lot earlier in life knocking on the door is feeding your kids mushrooms no my
parents tried to like you know force stuff on me I like, I mean, even in the spaghetti world, in the pasta world,
they tried to like spice things up a little bit and I wasn't having it.
Like what?
Like pepper?
I put a little meat in the sauce.
Just bolognese?
It's like, I don't need meat in the sauce.
Dude, just bolognese?
I want a little bit of, what?
They would like spice it up by adding bolognese to the spaghetti?
Yeah, yeah.
What do you like?
That's great.
Do you still to this day?
I wanted, no, I wanted just a little bit of sauce.
Just a little bit of sauce.
Just a light, like a light coating of sauce.
You're too white, dude.

picked it up
yeah
you're like the cockroach
of white
you know what I mean
you're a little grimy
grungy
but you get around city
and that makes you
less white somehow
like a used car
like a used white car
that's what Irish is
no it's just
still white
that's normal white
you're just ultra white
you're just like
a stereotypical white
you're very like
you know post
post for a Christmas card
You're like the Ivy League white
Without calling the Ivy League
Is that that?
You have the personality
I don't know
I think you guys are saying
Some pretty incriminating stuff here
I think you guys are
Getting yourself
In some real trouble
With this little
This little line
You've chosen to divide it
Divide whites
Yo Yeah This white guy Crackers This little line you've chosen to divide whites.
Yo.
Yeah.
What the fuck is white guy, huh?
Crack-ass motherfucker.
Blue-eyed devil.
Blue-eyed devil.
Meatless spaghetti motherfucker.
Oh, man.
I mean, you know what I'm talking about. It's like there's like a street where...
You think poverty is not white. No, that's not what I'm talking about. It's like there's like a street where- You think poverty is not white.
No, that's not what I'm saying.
That's literally what you're saying.
That's what he's saying.
That's what you're saying.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You're saying-
In a way, because you're more exposed to other cultures.
Well, who's saying it?
Are we saying it?
Or are they saying it on the news every day?
I don't know.
Who is it?
Is it me?
Or is it your country?
Look-
I don't know.
I'm trying to figure it out.
But it's not me.
It's someone else started that conversation.
You're blaming the media for this one.
CNN.
You're blaming the media for this one.
Well, they whine about it if it's so great.
There's an objective truth that if you're exposed to lower lower income and middle income
you're just more grimy
and more real because you're exposed to different
cultures. It's hard.
It's tough.
Yeah, it's shitty.
I don't seem real to you? You do.
You do. You do. You prick me
do I not bleed?
You bleed coins.
So much.
Almost.

Holy shit, a college scholarship.
Yeah, you're not sexist.
One lacrosse ball.
You know what I mean.
You're a regular guy
I don't have the foggiest clue
What you guys mean
I don't think about the world
In the way that you do
You mean
I think you're white
On the lens of
I think you're white
On the lens of
A white race
Italians aren't white
You literally compared yourself
To a used car

I was wearing

I was wearing
brown sweatshirts
and a brown shirt
and some dude
called me
Italiana Jones
fucking love me
that is
amazing
unbelievable
that's phenomenal
but yeah like I want to talk about this Christmas thing oh the Christmas That is amazing. That's phenomenal. But yeah,
I want to talk about this Christmas thing.
Oh, the Christmas fucking...
I have an issue
when it comes around Christmas time.
I'm sure you have many.
I'm sure you have.
Mostly because I'm Jewish.
No, I have a problem
because there's this...
In my family,
we had five fishes.
Seven.
Everyone else had seven.
My mama only ate five.
Can you believe this?
For years, I thought I didn't like two of the fishes.
It was bad.
The other two fishes had mushrooms in them.
She just threw them out.
No.
So every year around Christmas time, this is for like 20 years,
I get fucking livid that everyone I see around town is in brand new Christmas gear.
Drives me fucking nuts.
I don't know why, but everybody wears their brand new shit.
Everyone's in shiny, head to toe, brand new stuff.
And for some reason, it always fucked me up.
So then I spend a week going, that's new, that's new, that's new.
I look at purses.
I look at sneakers.
I look at jackets, hats, whole thing.
And I'll go blocks and blocks going, head to toe, brand new.
Head to toe, brand new. We came out of the, we were walking down the street the other day.
And he's huffing and puffing.
He's getting all fired up.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
He's huffing and puffing all's getting all fired up he's huffing and puffing
he's like another one
and I'm like dude what the fuck are you talking about
and he's like everyone on the streets
got new fucking clothes
I'm not a voter
he starts
pointing it out wouldn't you know it
everyone was wearing new clothes
it was crazy
he would get to the point we got to the end of the block we went from 30th to 28th Wouldn't you know it? Everyone was wearing new clothes. It was crazy.
He would get to the point, we got to the end of the block.
We went from 30th to 28th, Av.
And he's going, head to almost toe.
Those are old shoes.
This fucking guy nailed it.
You can pick out one thing, like old purse, everything else, head to toe.
And I would say 80% of the people didn't have just one new item.
It was the whole kit.
Yeah, showcase. It's a Oh, no. It was the whole kit. Yeah, showcase.
It's a showcase showdown.
It was unbelievable.
I've never seen,
I never noticed it before.
Yeah.
And it did start to bother me.
Let's see.
Wait.
See? I haven't been able to grasp
what we're talking about.
We're angry that people
are getting new stuff for Christmas.
And wearing it.
And wearing it.
The whole thing, though.
Listen, you get nice,
one item,
you can't be fucking
barrowing out of your bedroom.
Top to bottom.
Right out of the package.
I'm talking fucking creases
on your Van Hoosen.
You wear new clothes
the day you get them.
Yeah,
but you all know
it's not the day after Christmas.
This is a brand new shirt.
It's got today.
It's half to them.
This is again the sprinkling.
I'll wait a couple weeks.
You gotta sprinkle it
through the year. What's the problem with wearing the whole new thing? Ah, you're showing your hour. This is again the sprinkling. I'll wait a couple weeks. You got to sprinkle it through the year. You do.
What's the problem with wearing the whole new thing? Ah, you're showing your ass.
Showing your ass.
Yeah.
What if you have like four new outfits?
Right.
It makes sense for someone like you.
For me.

There's some hot dude
Shirtless in the lawn
There's some guy
With a really successful podcast
Yeah
I never thought I'd meet someone now.
Dude, I was just listening to a podcast about polyamory.
And they were talking about...
Wait, what?
The whole episode?
Yeah, I listened to a whole episode about polyamory.
I just can't even imagine a world where that would ever even be a thing.
Or click or care about.
What were you doing i was
like you know i would like try to pitch me on polyamory right now okay you know i was like
no i was that's why i turned on the podcast i saw it and i said you know what are you are you
looking i got a really negative no i got it no no i'm trying to pitch it yeah let them pitch
pitch polyamory
well you know
the idea of having one partner
is such an outdated
it is
picture
it is
it was actually created
by
1000%
also
I don't love you less
loving someone else
doesn't make me love you less
dude let me tell you something
no you're not allowed
to love someone else
but I'm allowed
yeah
when a woman loves two men
alright
polyamory sounds like a guy loves two men. All right.
Polyamory sounds like a guy loves multiple women.
Would you get offended if you were at dinner with your girlfriend and she was like, that's a good looking dude?
No.
No.
Of course not.
Absolutely not.
You're a mature adult.
Yeah.
Or if I was like, that's a good looking dude, would you get upset?
I would not get upset.
Exactly.
You're a fucking adult.
So what makes you think that when you settle down with a woman, you're no longer attracted visually or sexually to another person? Whether you're a man adult so what makes you think that when you settle down with a woman you're no longer
attracted visually
or sexually
to another person
whether you're a man
or a woman
it's crazy
nobody thinks that
nobody thinks that
what are you talking about
they want you to act
as if you
they want you to
yeah lie
they want you to like
but the more honest
you are about it
going that's a beautiful person
why can't I say that
cause
you've never been
with a woman that was insecure or jealous?
Yeah, no shit.
So then what are you talking about?
Me, all of them.
No, but I'm talking about like a normal person isn't of the opinion
that you're not going to find anyone attractive for the rest of your life.
I would argue they are.
Most people from our elk, ilk from our elk i think they they believe that
like they find your you find your soulmate a block and a half from where you grew up
yeah that's what they think and then once you meet this this fucking freckle monster you have
four or five kids that you can't afford you sit in the fucking house eating bland mushrooms and you just go,
I guess this is who I got.
And you're the most beautiful woman in the world, Jeannie.
And you can't go looking at other girls
getting a nice chicken sandwich.
This is the way they see you.
You ever watch porn, right?
You rub one out,
you come,
and then next thing you know,
that porn is disgusting.
Yeah.
That's the way they kind of feel like
your brain changes
once you start have you ever had a porn conversation with a with a girlfriend
when she's like what do you what do you like what do you watch tell tell them try to tell them
yeah what you're into and watch that impl yeah, yeah. Guy brings girl home flowers.
Yeah, because, well, you can't start there
because that's not really what you're, it's not.
I didn't say start there.
I just said that's a fucking,
that's a normal conversation we should have with someone.
If you're talking to your girlfriend, like,
all right, well, what do you masturbate to?
Or like, what do you like on porn?
And she told you, if you're like harrumphing to me,
like fucking, you like Latino guys? You're like, like that's fucked up and then you get in your head you're you're
a fucking idiot yeah i mean let the girl peruse yeah yeah yeah pick any color peruse away i watch
all that roll the wheel i also watch all that step any size bird double the bird all holes filled
get it girl yeah as long as you love me and then you're not you know trying to get the holes filled yeah yeah yeah that's what i'm saying yeah well a lot of relationships are like i don't
like that some people just don't want to know but i don't think i've been in relationships where like
a waitress will come to the table who's objectively beautiful yeah and they know
she's objectively beautiful right and they'll look at you going you think she's cute
yeah
of course she's cute
you know she's cute
yeah
why what do you like about her
no that is my
I don't know her
I don't like anything about her
she's just a pretty girl
oh you like blondes now do you
and that yeah
oh you're into blondes now
it turns into a fucking fight
I didn't know you liked blondes
you're like what am I supposed to say
so then you get
into the point going
nope
not into her
and then I have to tell her
that I'm looking
at a beautiful woman
that I don't like her
yeah no
I mean I don't think
I'll ever be in one of those again
no
that's crazy
it is crazy
you're forced to lie
yeah yeah
that's
that's banana land
I mean again
it's like
it really is
it's crazy yeah dude what's our podcast called can we change it banana land dude no that's banana land. I mean, again, it's like, it really is. It's crazy.
Damn, dude.
What's our podcast called?
Can we change it?
Banana land.
Dude, no, that's banana land.
That's a good name right there.
Fuck.
Here's the thing.
Irrationality breeds dishonesty.
It's a fact of life.
That's a...
Is that an O'Connor original?
That's an O'Connor original.
Did you nap before this podcast?
Make him black and white and put that on the thing.
I'll share it on my main.
It'll be our first clip.
Irrationality breeds dishonesty.
It does.
You said that, Walt Whippen?
No, it does.
It's the only poet I know because he's from Philly.
He's got a bridge in Philly.
He's probably not from Philly. He's from Philly. He's got a bridge in Philly. He's probably not from Philly.
He's from New York.
Yeah.
He's got a bridge in Philly.
Jesus Christ.
He went there one time.
No.
Yeah, no.
He did, probably.
No, he was gay.
He hung out with the soldiers
and stuff during the Civil War.
W.W.?
Yeah, yeah, Walt Whitman.
Yeah.
No, his poetry rules.
His poetry does rule.
I bet but
crossing the Brooklyn Ferry
yeah you don't get a bridge
built after
if your poetry doesn't
fucking
crossing the Brooklyn Ferry
is the coolest
fucking poem of all time
no but
irrationality
breeds dishonesty
Jesus Christ
you compliment him
on one thing
no because
he's white guys
huh
I know because
this is like
yeah
you don't think I'm white
white guys don't
all I do is quote
Walt Whitman all day long
I thought this would be
a topic we could explore
all of a sudden
we're on Walt Whitman
all I said
oh my god
it's crazy
rationality breathes dishonesty
so you don't have it yet
and I quote a couple of witties
I feel Dominican
when I hang out with Chris
I know
no the moment you can't
trust someone with the truth
it's you just start lying about fucking the tiniest things.
Yeah.
All the time.
I agree.
All the time.
And I'm guilty of that too, though.
And then you've built a mountain of lies
that are just like,
they don't even make sense.
It's a spider web too.
And then they're like,
well, why would you lie about,
you know,
you fucking were on the bus
and you weren't on the bus?
It's like, because...
I wanted to avoid this.
Yeah.
And you would know...
You beat me down for so many fucking arguments. I wanted to avoid this. Yeah. And you would beat me down
for so many
fucking arguments.
I will lie about everything.
Yeah.
Even though I'm not
doing anything.
Yeah.
Because you thought
I was doing all of it
and I wasn't.
I knew you were lying.
I knew you ate all the pickles.
Yeah.
If you're lying about this
what else are you lying about?
It's like
I mean
everything.
Literally everything.
My name is Carl. you got a good point
yeah yeah yeah
I'm from Indiana
this dick isn't real
I don't
yeah but also
I don't think I've told my
girlfriend the truth
in four years
so I'm like
but what are you trying to say
yeah
I feel like I'm just
trying to keep
just
nodding and agreeing
yeah yeah
I'm just trying to keep
yes anding
no there is an element to where you just
like you fucking you bear down and you just go i'm just gonna tell her whatever she needs to hear
to avoid the lash out dog shit that's gonna waste my night yeah it's it's impossible to me i know
and i agree with you you start off a hundred percent open and honest. And then you get here.
New relationships, you go, look, I had sex with a transsexual.
It was an accident.
Of course.
It's not even on the page yet.
You say that.
Dude, I'll say anything.
This is the best part about it.
She goes, it's a second date.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I got to just.
If I met someone in like two years, I'd be like, look, go to Stuff Island YouTube.
You'll find out eventually.
Just watch the
season you'll know enough about my fucking yeah but i hear you it's like there's a there's a
confusion as to like how much do i tell like what do i what do i protect well yeah what happens is
you'll say you'll say the truth at the first time and then you have this big fight and then you walk
out of there going yeah i'm the guy who tells the truth then you didn't and then the next time you tell the truth and you have this big fight you're like yeah i'm the guy and then you have this big fight and then you walk out of there going yeah I'm the guy that tells the truth and then the next time
you tell the truth and you have this big fight
and then the third time you go ah it's not worth the fight
no I love you baby
I see to me it starts with little things
where you're like
it'll be some
tiny lie where like you were
on your way home and then you
ran into a friend you had one
beer and then and then you came back and uh and you'll come back and the first time in the new
relationship you'd be like oh no i ran into jeff and i had a beer and they're like you ran into
and you just had a beer you call me i would have liked to have a beer and i was like and you're
like where was jeff this is you never run into jeff who's jeff this is in front of me does he
have a girlfriend and then you're like
what's the better answer here
who else was Jeff with
it was just you and Jeff
yeah
it was just Jeff and I
having a beer
do you ever find yourself
lying
does Jeff have a
girlfriend
and then you go
what's the
which one do you want
which one do you want
me to say here
you go
yes if you
think that's good.
And you're so panicked.
And you're so panicked for 30 years.
Yeah, that's the thing.
And he's just leaving his wife at home.
No, no, no.
She died of cancer.
Jeff sometimes goes out with his wife, too.
You're right.
He wants to go out with us next weekend.
No, that isn't true.
And then you're going to call Jeff and go, listen, I got a problem.
Dude, I got a problem.
I lied so hard that we have a double date next week.
I told the truth, and now I have to lie first.
You lie yourself into something you don't want to do.
Just to avoid an argument.
I'd rather build a falsehood and then fuck up my whole week.
Just to not fight with somebody.
The trick is now.
But it's their fault.
Yeah, it's my mom's fault for not locking the door.
It's their fault.
You got to just, yeah, they have to be like oh okay
yeah
it's a mature way to think
cause that is
that is the
that's a better scenario
where it's like
you did run into Jeff
and his girlfriend
at the thing
and you went and had a drink
and she's like
you just
you went and you hung out with him
was there anyone else there
like can you lie
but yeah
dude
have you ever been with a girl like this
when they're like
I'm going out with my girls
on Saturday night
and you're like awesome yeah fantastic going out with my girls on Saturday night.
And you're like, awesome.
Yeah.
Fantastic.
Go.
Amazing. That's great.
Have fun.
I'll see you when you get back.
Just text me and let me know you're all right.
That's it.
Oh, dude.
And then that'll even become a fight going, well, that's it?
You're just going to let me go?
Yeah, yeah.
What?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'd even go further than that and i'd say if you turn
around to your girl you're together for years and you go look i need to just clear my head i love

Someone to scoop the shit
out of your pants
You save
You need a shit scooper
I'm saying your retirement money.
Fuck them.
You're not thinking clearly.
If my parents aren't going to give me any money.
This is an anger talk.
No, it's not.
I hate this mentality.
This is a bullshit mentality.
No, I'm saying your money goes far.
Work 60 years your whole life doing something you fucking hate.
Marry someone you don't love.
Have too many kids you can't fucking afford.
Work a job to pay for the kids.
I'm not done.
Pay for the kids you can't fucking afford. All a job to pay for the kids. I'm not done. Pay for the kids you can't fucking afford.
All for what?
So you couldn't have fun?
No, no, no.
Use your money.
Live your life.
Spend it all.
Stop worrying about that shit.
I agree with you.
I agree with you.
Spend it all.
But you run out of money faster when you're an old, confused geezer and your font's fucking
huge on your phone.
Go to GW. take a fucking leap,
and don't pencil.
The only way to survive
is you take a fucking pencil off the GW.
Or you could have two kids.
And if you don't pencil, you go night-night.
And if you're fucking 65 years old,
you got a little fucking lump in your liver or something,
whatever, and then yeah, take a leap.
Or you could have two young Tommies
that are going,
are you trying to take my father's money?
Are you trying to take my father's money?
And they go down and they break some guy's legs.
What makes you think they're even going to have
any fucking say in my money anyway?
They're trying to protect your money
for you to spend.
They're not.
That depends how you raise your kids.
If you focus on food and cleaning the dog three times a week.
Yes, most important.
Then you're going to have shitty kids.
Cleaning after yourself and eating well are more important than worrying about your parents' fucking money.
No, no, no.
My parents, I used to get savings bonds.
Do your parents have money?
No.
Well, then how would you even know?
Exactly.
You're like, I've never had to worry about my parents' money.
No, I just know they don't think like that.
They don't fucking care.
There's not going to be a conversation going, well, let's split up the will.
Who gives a fuck?
You know what?
Caring about money is a real white person thing.
It is.
It truly is.
It is.
This is an upper class mentality.
This is it.
Live your life.
Spend your shit.
Get fucked up.
Kill yourself.
You guys are drawing lines in the sand. That's a cycle. No. You're your shit. Get fucked up. Kill yourself. That's the fucking cycle, dude.
That's the cycle.
You're not doing well.
Have fun. Fuck with the basement door locked.
We're out here.
Go do drugs. Jump off a bridge.
We're jumping off bridges. We're dying at 65.
Look at us.
We're not white.
We're dying at 65.
You need to make some young people To protect you in the future
No you don't
It's literally like
My girlfriend
It's like a terminator
It's a reverse terminator situation
So people without children
