Starting point is 00:00:00 Read all about it! Mike Gibbons, back on the coffee! I was talking about coffee and you started screaming in my back swing. Best way to read the newspaper with a hot cup of coffee. Top stories today. Rush Limbaugh, Florida man. Mike Gibbons, how are you? I'm good. Wait, did you just preview a story? What was that? There's a lot to talk about today. I like, you know, when I'm standing on the street corner with my newsy cap and i'm trying to get people to toss me a nickel for the paper i give a little tease of what's in it i see the micro dosing has moved up to uh bigger doses of shrooms it sounds like i need a major dose of shrooms i need me you malloy yeah and maybe Ken Fink to go off in a field with a fistful of mushrooms and
Starting point is 00:01:07 talk about what the fuck life is all about now wow that's a tough question isn't it I don't know I don't know I spent the last two nights at the clubs in LA they just reopened this week and i did the comedy store one night and then last night i did the improv and it was just like so surreal to not do it for a year in la it was the first time on stage in a year and uh it was just it was kind of magic but it was also kind of like you ever have an orgasm and you're not in control of it and you're it it comes out a little ahead of you and you don't completely feel it you still have it but you're not really behind it yeah you're just in an uber and it just shoots out of you or something yeah right and then the guy pulls over and kicks you out yeah and you're like all right i get it fair fair please give me four stars and so uh it was like that it was good
Starting point is 00:02:07 i saw um i saw a woman who i really liked oh i hadn't really seen before taylor tomlinson you ever heard of her yeah yeah of course yeah she was really funny yep i was very impressed with her and then i saw your friend neil brennan right he had some funny new shit apparently his brother kevin got into it with uh bobby kelly you know bobby kelly yeah yeah big bobby kelly out of boston fucking kelly so i guess the story that i heard kevin's getting into it you know this i mean was it gelman the other one gulman gelman i think punched him in the face yeah pinned him against the wall at least right and then kevin was videotaping bobby kelly on stage and then bobby got off and screamed at him
Starting point is 00:02:55 and threw him against a wall and i'm not sure what else happened after that wow it's gonna only help kevin's career probably though oh yeah well i'm tuning into the two's podcast because of it yeah there you go as are all of our listeners so that's another 150 people see all right we're both are not much energy i was just gonna say i was just gonna say we both look a little groggy yeah late start because of you of you. Yep. I'm going to own it. I apologize. Next week I'll load it with stories. I think my dad's in, my dad's in town next week. Is he really? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So for him, well, we should get out on the golf course.
Starting point is 00:03:39 Oh, now that's, I heard a rumor that you are out taking golf lessons from a professional. I did. Yeah. Professional is an interesting word. Yeah. I found a guy in Craigslist and let's just say it's the Craigslist version of a golf instructor. Yeah. Tats like crazy. It actually a pretty unbelievable story, but it's too much to go into. What do you mean it's too much to go into? I'm too tired.
Starting point is 00:04:10 I can't get it going. But a fascinating life. Put it this way. I am, as soon as Tom O'Neill gets back into town, I am introducing them because I'm not, this is not a joke or just throwing it around loosely. I literally think it's, this guy will be the source of Tom's next book.
Starting point is 00:04:27 Really? Yeah. Interesting. On something, I can't really talk about it. On something Tom has been very interested in. Okay. So the guy's gay. Actually very far from it.
Starting point is 00:04:42 Yeah. Did I tell you my conversation with him? We do our blue chew ads and uh uh so i told him that we've been we get all these free sample have you gotten your free samples of blue chew yeah yeah so i told him we got i got so many packets i don't know what to do with them so he he said i i want some i need some i go Tom you're gay and you want erectile dysfunction pills and I was like yeah I go do you ever think maybe you're just not gay like slob I've always accused him of being a closeted heterosexual maybe you just like show tunes maybe you just like uh he
Starting point is 00:05:19 doesn't he he doesn't yes he does he loves P Smith, so that does put him on the map a little bit. No, no, no, no. When he has his TV, he listens to music through his TV, and it's set to, like, old Dinah Shore-type music. Now, he's totally into the campy gay music. Well, listen, we're typing, for sure, stereotyping, but he is a slob who listens to Joe Rogan. He doesn't check a lot of boxes, not a lot of the gay boxes.
Starting point is 00:05:51 No, no. Yeah. Right. But he's gay. Yeah. It turns out he does check a lot of gay boxes. See? All right.
Starting point is 00:06:03 That was a good podcast. I didn't think I had it in me oh i had uh yeah so have you seen in and of itself what's that some a bunch of people told me i had to see it it was it was a off-broadway show i guess. Magician. I mean we can wait and talk about an entertainment if we want but if you haven't seen it I guess we won't. I have to see it again because I kind of fell asleep during it but. Oh is it the one where the crowd somebody comes back from the crowd the next night? Yeah. Yeah I saw that. But he guesses he has everyone write down I am a comedian. am an author i am a mother whatever it is
Starting point is 00:06:45 and everyone has those cards anyway he probably with an earpiece but he remembers at the end he talks to each one but the guy was so annoying first of all too much so many people crying including him but it was kind of like hey i have tricks which are you know whatever i have good magic tricks let me embed them in an incredibly melodramatic story and and that's what that's what this vehicle is going to be i just want to go back and see if he's as annoying as i thought he was the first yeah i i like the show but it was like just fucking get to it and stop talking like a douchebag oh my god so creepy yes so i mean that's most magicians he was just like every other magician there's nothing believable about them they're just like they they have to they have to have the certain intonation
Starting point is 00:07:38 that's very like schmaltzy yeah it was like the worst ted talk i'd ever seen yeah it was like kevin brendan's podcast a little bit yeah because he doesn't know anyone's name i'm trying to get kevin mad at me so that he'll yell at me on his podcast and you know what the worst thing about him is like he's asked me to come on his podcast i say yes and then he says okay we'll do it and then he doesn't follow up and then i get tweets from his followers saying greg's being a pussy and won't come on the show and then and then kevin will like that right well like three four years ago i was in new york and he had me on it on his podcast and uh and then i pitched him this is the thing greg and i will host a podcast and have both brennan brothers
Starting point is 00:08:25 on i thought that was a good idea yeah both said no really yeah yeah because i brought it up i brought it up to neil also i think you have five other brothers or i think there's 10 siblings and i think i think it's i honestly i think it's 11 it's i think it's 11 of the 11 i probably you can only find two that would be on a podcast with each other neil would tell me stories about like the rules because you know what it's like you have two kids i'm overwhelmed by two kids sometimes like the getting out and then of course one's gluten-free which completely messes me up you can't keep it straight they had to make all the kids also is 11 now 11 probably weren't in school at the same time so let's say eight or nine they have to make all their sandwiches for the week so let's say it's
Starting point is 00:09:17 eight three aren't in school right that's 40 sandwiches that are being made on a Sunday night. Yeah. And then he, he, I don't think this is a bit of his, he kind of had a funny line and I was like, well, wait. And he goes, yeah, I know what you're thinking. No. And then they put, they freeze them Sunday night and you take out one a day for school, five of them each. And he's like, I go, yeah, but wait, he's no, I know what you're going to, I know what you're going to ask. And the answer is no peanut butter doesn't thaw by lunchtime.
Starting point is 00:09:51 But crazy rules, like about the laundry. Like it's out on the street if you don't empty it, like after a first warm. Like it was, I like, there's a lot of structure there. There have to be. Yeah. there's a lot of structure there that have to be yeah um by the way uh modern drummer magazine this month oh yeah which is like the bible for drumming it's huge our good buddy eric liederman is on the cover with fred armisen oh so i thought he might be on the cover of mid-century drummer which one is he on modern drummer modern drummer yeah i don't get that one well it's like modern family it's like they were modern back in the 90s i i tried contemporary drummer for a while but i don't
Starting point is 00:10:40 know i just liked yeah stuff yeah anyway I used to get old-fashioned drummer. It was the guy with the British uniform and the snare drum attached to his chest. Walking drummer? Yeah, I got that. Anyways, we both know him from the Ellen DeGeneres show.
Starting point is 00:11:00 Which is crazy. He was a producer. I think he's like the co-show runner on um seth seth uh meyer show yeah but he's done everything he was he worked on he ran impractical jokers and he worked on howard stern and uh a million shows that we both worked on so uh congrats to uh to eric yeah and follow him on instagram it's highly original tons of pictures of his dog so rush to it yeah he's uh he's he's he used to have a dog named murray and uh oh murray was in my house i know murray well yeah murray was a good dog he's got i think the the same breed, but a new version of it now.
Starting point is 00:11:46 I thought it was Murray for a while because I'm out of touch with him a bit. His best feat for me, we had so many laughs because we needed to working at Ellen. When you found a kindred spirit who was as miserable as you at the place, you actually have so much fun. So for April Fool's Day one year he had i had a volkswagen passat and i'm driving it and it was around drop it was around april 8th and i'm filling up my gas my gas tank and uh and a guy starts laughing behind me and he's like i love it he goes i love your license plate i was like what are you talking about And I look around and my license plate said,
Starting point is 00:12:26 official pump, a pimp mobile. Yeah. One of those frames. And I was like, what the fuck is that? And I was like, Lederman. He had put it on for April Fool's Day. So it was, I was driving around for a week, had no idea. So I fucking laughed so hard because i had two baby seats in
Starting point is 00:12:46 the car at the time yeah clearly you're pimping i'm pimping and uh and so as a tribute to the joke i left it on for five more years until i finally sold the car it stayed on higher resale value because of it of course and he i think he was getting me back because like the first week at ellen he was in the he was a researcher and so the writers would ask the researchers for stuff if they needed it and so i had asked him and this other guy pete to do some research and then i gave them each starbucks gift cards to thank oh yeah and then I gave them each Starbucks gift cards to thank them. Oh, yeah. And then they came back to me a couple weeks later. They finally used them. And they realized that there was no value on the cards.
Starting point is 00:13:39 I picked them up off the counter, unfilled, and gave them to them. And they got online and they were like, yeah, chocolate croissant. You know what? Throw an extra shot in there yeah anybody else hey i got it i got the card yeah that's that's that's great rude of them to bring it up you just you take that one silently you just say it must have been a glitch in the computer fitzsimmons would never do that of course and i barely knew them um what a research department by the way kate schellenbeck from the beastie boys yeah and liederman in there two
Starting point is 00:14:13 drummers yeah and pete why am i forgetting pete's name pete thompson pete thompson so cool i know it was he might have started while i was Did he start from the beginning in research? Yeah, he was there from the beginning. Another super cool guy. I don't think he drums, though. No, but he has his own. He has a lot of equipment. He's like a production.
Starting point is 00:14:35 Oh, no, I've hired him. He's great. He's a company guy now. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, he's really good at what he does. And he used to be married to Karen Kilgariff. Yep.
Starting point is 00:14:47 Who was working with us at Ellen at the time as well yeah crazy we should write a book mike she left him for murder that's right no she has that amazing podcast my i wonder if that i wonder if you're dating somebody who does a podcast about murder if you start to wonder what their obsession is with murder you know yeah if they go really deep but they keep it light i mean that's a that's a good podcast it's such a good i mean there are really melodramatic true crime ones where they're trying to go you know very gravely serious yeah and and establish that tone and it's like all right slow down um speaking of music david chamberlain yeah did our song this week it was very fun little uh angelic transcendent feeling song oh and uh he is with recordla.com if you want to check out his other stuff. Logo was very cool this week. Oh, who the fuck did it? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:15:48 The ref. Oh, Jesus. It's funny, right? Well, you know, there was a lot of speculation. The photo was very weird that they seemed so giant next to the car. It's the Bidens. Yeah. Mr. and Mrs.
Starting point is 00:16:01 And next to Mr. and Mrs. Carter yeah and uh and the carters look very small and they're like well oh that's what happens in like a wide angle the ones on the the explanation didn't make any sense to me yeah uh but i guess conspiracies were like that they photoshopped it and enlarged themselves or something i don't know but look how tiny we are i know it's great god jimmy carter's got the old man shoes doesn't he and i'm uh yeah and i'm carter mister yeah those big bulky shoes those corrective shoes jesus it's well the dude is so old are you kidding me rosalind's tits still look pretty good oh boy all right that's a busy dress on jill a couple corrections this week no just a couple toren nolan said love the show i've listened to every episode and was
Starting point is 00:17:07 delighted to hear that i could call out greg on his inaccurate musical knowledge regarding the story of the female who broke the record for singing the lowest note greg said that she sang a c major tone in fact the hashtag after a note signifies that it is sharp. I question that by the way. I let it slide. Look, the last time I read music, I was playing trombone in the sixth grade. And I remember that was a major. That explains it. I mean, I learned guitar, but it was always with, uh, just by, by, you know, feeling it out and having people show me chords. I don't really read it. Yeah. So, uh, all right. I think my conviction with it was strong though. It, yeah, you, I questioned it. You fucking just stamped that down, denied it. That is not to be questioned.
Starting point is 00:18:07 stamped that down denied it that is not to be questioned joanne h said correction heady means intoxicating exhilarating not intellectual mike did a very popular definition mistake yeah spelled mistake m-i-s-t-a-k joanne h mistock um yes she's right she's absolutely right i did me you know i did when i saw that letter i looked it up and i did find one definition maybe because of such popular misuse that did put in there uh intellectual but i can't deny i i was using it wrong like uh yeah i did say heady i had no idea iady, you know, it was just the more literal translation of like, you're smart. No, not at all. Like you probably thought you were being pretty heady about the hashtag sharp sign. You weren't. Elizabeth Brown said the word forte is pronounced forts, not forte. That's it. You want to sound like an asshole and correct people it's been
Starting point is 00:19:06 mispronounced for so long that the pronunciation forte has been added as acceptable oh really do you drive a porsche and do you wear nikes well toosh elizabeth brown you got us yeah i guess we were kind of douches. That does happen, though, like having an S on the end of my last name. Technically, if it's singular possessive, I know I'm nerding out, but I don't know a lot about grammar. But when your last name ends with an S like you, like Mike Gibbons' phone, technically, the old school it was ons apostrophe apostrophe s right now really yes if it's plural you put the apostrophe after this i think we've talked about this before anyway so many it's just s apostrophe that's if it's plural and so many people did that uh just do it you know that way that it is now acceptable yeah let's dumb down english a little bit it's too fucking complicated i feel sorry for people
Starting point is 00:20:13 that are coming from another country trying to learn this goddamn language well the word can i remember it on the fly here the word that i just have given up on like like go F yourself, is nonplussed. Because nobody seems to know what it means. I thought it was unimpressed. No. This is off the top of my head. I still decided never to use it again, even though I think I i know it's you are actually so taken aback that you have no facial expression really i i believe that's what it is all right the definition here in the dictionary says of a person surprised and confused so much that they are unsure how to react yeah wow i think i nailed that S. Kind of nailed it. So everyone
Starting point is 00:21:08 misuses it. I think non-pussed means like if you're not getting laid at all. Yeah, like non-pussed since 2014. Yeah. Something like that, yeah. Oh boy, this show's moving along. I think we're doing good.
Starting point is 00:21:23 Okay. See Jerry oh boy this show's moving along i think we're doing good okay see jerry garcia jump ahead there's a juicy one jerry garcia did heroin it's confirmed billy mongodvan said i'm a huge deadhead and mike was almost correct about the dead using heroin it was just garcia he smoked it not long before he died jerry showed up for a sound check with a shower cap on because he'd forgotten to take it off after using it in his hotel room to protect his hair from burning when he smoked his Persian. We've all done that. He actually died sober in a rehab facility in Mill Valley trying to quit, but his heart finally gave out. Wow. I think he did heroin for decades.
Starting point is 00:22:07 gave out wow i think he did heroin for decades well people knew like you know of course the whole dead community would be like oh man he was so off like you know in hartford or whatever it is like yeah there was a lot of chatter yeah i mean it was just it was a i hope he doesn't overdo it tonight you know there was there was just you know like it was a just a fact of the shows yeah there's no explaining bob dylan or other like fucking van morrison or those other It was just a fact of the shows. Yeah. There's no explaining Bob Dylan or other fucking Van Morrison or those other... Well, Van Morrison is more the moody one who it's like, is he going to have a good attitude tonight or is this a complete waste of money?
Starting point is 00:22:36 That was a big thing for 15 years with that guy. I know. I've seen Van Morrison probably five times in my life. And I would say three of the times was like one of the greatest concerts ever. And two of them were I wanted to leave early. Yeah. He gets drunk. He just gets drunk and he goes into these bluesy riffs where he starts like scat singing and he just like disappears behind the music. He forgets to come back out again. When you say it like that sounds incredible yeah yeah well maybe you're on heroin um who did i listen to this week that i liked it's not new at all uh i'll get it later but it was nice also talking heads again i went into a
Starting point is 00:23:21 little talking heads thing always yeah um little creatures oh the best album top top five albums of all time yeah i think we've talked about this but any listeners who haven't seen stop making sense it's not just a live concert it's a movie jonathan demi oscar Jonathan Demme, Oscar-winning director of Silence of the Lambs, directed it. And there it is art. It is really, really great. And there's an amazing breakdown of it on YouTube where a guy like, it's like a review, but it's really like a, he just kind of structurally critiques it in like a film appreciation way and the imagery the beginning the middle the end why the order of the songs and it's
Starting point is 00:24:14 it's really great like that review is also great you should actually read the review before you see the film yeah it's amazing um you know what else is amazing is uh sunday oh we are supported by sunday mike uh they support the show they help us you don't have to tell me about it and paid for our editors and your wardrobe that's hanging behind you i said you don't have to tell me about it um so listen we both have lawns and well i do you you you gave this product to your mom who has a lawn lawn is killing it what now you what was it like before and after because i think that's the best way to describe sunday southern california she had given up on it and um was like you know what i also maybe it's not it's just not worth it there's like no rain here and it's too much
Starting point is 00:25:05 maintenance and there were weeds and it was just like not attractive or and i was like and then this came along got it thank god it was simple otherwise she wouldn't have bitten on it and you just it's already pre-mixed you don't have to be you don't have to be a chemist and you attach it to the hose and just water the goddamn place. You water it and it takes 15 minutes. And the other thing that's great is like with ours, we have dogs and I never wanted to put any weird chemicals on the grass because as much as I don't want them to live a lot longer, I'm a little bit over them. That dog's a bastard. I don't want them to die from uh fertilized so they use all natural
Starting point is 00:25:46 uh non-toxic ingredients and uh and it works fast and easy the website setting it up is actually kind of fun because you can see them hone in on your lawn from space and uh and they and then they like you like you said they send you this pouch strap it on, and you're off and running. They know your ecosystem. They know about how hot, cold, rain. They know everything. Yeah, we used to have dry patches, and now it's like solid green, the whole thing. So let Sunday take the guesswork out of growing a greener, more beautiful lawn this spring.

Yeah. No, I know. All right. From softball. Softball. Volleyball.
Starting point is 00:29:07 Volleyball. All right. What do we got? All right. Let's do it. Extra. Extra. We all about it.
Starting point is 00:29:15 Extra. Oh, here it is. Okay. Okay. In Florida, this is not the florida man story but it is in fact a florida man named governor ron desantis he signed an elections bill that makes it of course more difficult to vote this is what florida needed more voter confusion because this is there's a lot of confusion over this because go ahead he himself is contradicting himself go ahead he has literally said that uh the that the that the elections were
Starting point is 00:29:56 already highly secure he boasted in november about how well the general election had gone saying florida was now being seen as quote the state that did it right and that other states should emulate while republican secretary of state laura lee at the san disappointee said in december that her department had quote successfully administered three safe secure and orderly elections in 2020 but now suddenly they need to restrict mail-in voting, voter boxes, all this stuff that make it more difficult for poor people to vote. How about this, Republicans? Instead of stopping poor people from voting, why don't you do some shit to help them and then they'll vote for you? Isn't that the way a free election supposed to work
Starting point is 00:30:45 remember the hanging chads you know what's funny if you took this republican outrage and also you know what they're calling the big lie right um if you took if they were fans uh if they were democrats in that year uh god i'm so brain dead it was bush with the hanging chads where the supreme court which was republican decided the election and not kerry but what's his name just gore conceded yeah for the better of the country right it could have been dragged on absolutely that's just a fact and they could have appealed it and gone on but i mean you want to talk about an election that was very likely to have literally been stolen yeah like not a lie i mean look into it whatever i'm sure i can hear everyone typing corrections now but that was like a legitimate like a supreme i mean like courts
Starting point is 00:31:54 had to get involved and they didn't all agree that nothing was wrong and that nothing happened no they found later on they they found a truck full of uh ballots from a from a poor county that were never counted and the people well whatever i don't want to get too into it well you know so when they're when they oversaw them just look it up read it if you don't know the history or remind yourself which is what i should have done before i opened my mouth but they would just any if it was a hanging chad, literally a Democratic vote, any vote, but most of them were Democratic in that county, where the piece of paper had not been punched all the way. It was just dangling, flopping, whole, for the Democrat was punched, but it was a hanging chad. They demand that that ballot be thrown out.
Starting point is 00:32:40 Yeah. Yeah. thrown out yeah yeah the other thing florida did was they had a law passed that allowed felons with certain conditions to be able to vote and then right before the last election they just mysteriously quietly overturned that and that would have did florida go blue or red it went red this year right i? I think. Yeah. But they say it would have altered the vote. Oh, no, I think it did. The big Cuban story.
Starting point is 00:33:12 Yeah, right. The Republicans played the socialist card. Yeah. And knowing it would land with Cuban Americans, I guess. Yeah. Huh. They got the, all right. So, uh, another, if we're going to pile on Republicans, uh, you want to read this next one?
Starting point is 00:33:32 I, I guess we're piling on Republicans, but it's just funny. The GOP, wow, man, I should go to sleep. The GOP led Missouri house voted to create Rush Limbaugh Day. The Missouri House on Thursday voted in favor of creating Rush Limbaugh Day as Rush demonstrated courage to speak boldly and encourage his listeners and viewers to reach for their dreams and to push onward beyond the naysayers and discouragers that we all encounter in life. This is what Sarah Walsh said. She liked quoting him like that one, but you know what quote she didn't drop was, this is Rush, drug use, some might say, is destroying this country. Limbaugh said this in October 1995. And so if people are violating the law by doing drugs, they ought to be accused and they ought to be convicted and they ought to be sent up.
Starting point is 00:34:33 Huh. Said this while he received 2,000 pain pills prescribed by four doctors over a six month period, all from a pharmacy near his Palm Beach house. And then he was getting drugs and using his house cleaner to get the drugs. Who was, by the way, his other big thing he railed against was undocumented workers, which his housekeeper was, who was getting him the drugs. So they didn't mention that for rush limbaugh day it sounds like
Starting point is 00:35:09 a good day man when you're doing 2 000 pain pills over a six month period i can't do the math that fast that's a lot of pills in that day that's a that's a meal that's enough to fill your stomach yeah he also said some cool stuff like michael j Fox was doing a TV ad advocating for stem cell research. Limbaugh saw the ad and said Fox had been shameless and moving all around and shaking. And that he had not taken his medication or he's acting. Well, he does know about medication i'll give him that right right and then there was another woman who came on and uh she was a law student named sandra fluke who was talking to um uh i think it was the supreme court who was she talking to i mean the list of his outrageous things he said she called she called him a uh she wanted she was
Starting point is 00:36:07 in support of mandating insurance covering contraceptives he called her a slut and a prostitute yeah that might have been the uh 18 pills that morning talking though yeah yeah um he was just a disgrace he was it. He was a global warming denier. Yep. And Islamophobe. He was a lot of things. And he got the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Why is there no fucking checks and balances
Starting point is 00:36:37 on who gets a Presidential Medal of Freedom? Is it completely at the president's discretion? And by the way, he bought himself out of doing jail time in Florida by paying $30,000. Oh, is that right? Yep. And went to rehab. All right.
Starting point is 00:36:53 As we're bashing the Republicans, suddenly our producer Chris Denman's gotten very active on the Google Doc. He said Sandra Fluke. And then he wrote he's from cape girardeau missouri well that's why missouri is honoring him yeah thanks chris glad we could wake up chris you think me and you were out of it today jesus christ hey listen that he didn't have to research that chris knows where all his heroes are born he can read some of these quotes from Rush. They're tattooed on his calf.
Starting point is 00:37:31 All right. In Colorado, a Republican state lawmaker from Colorado was referred to a colleague as buckwheat. What? During a house session. Wait a minute. He was reprimanded. State Rep. Richard Holtorf made the remark during a debate, Buckwheat was the name of a stereotypical black child character
Starting point is 00:37:54 in the 1930s R-Gang and Little Rascals short films. The character was later repeatedly satirized by comedian Eddie Murphy on Saturday Night Live. Here's his quote. I'm getting there. Don't worry, buckwheat. I'm getting there. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:38:13 Wait a minute. He said this. He said he was not addressing a black. I'm reading this story for the first time. Go ahead. Yeah, he said he was not addressing a black person, but a black, uh, the democratic house speaker stood up and I believe she's African-American or maybe she's Latino Adrian Benavidez. And she interrupted. And he said, that's an endearing term, by the way, why are you yelling at me? Everybody started yelling
Starting point is 00:38:42 and booing. Yeah. Why are you yelling at me? started yelling and booing yeah why are you yelling at me fuckface another endearing term yeah right and when he said the n-word he just meant it like you know uh my n-word he wasn't talking to a black person it's affectionate these are terms of endearment buckwheat all right what is happening luckily i've never heard that used i just i never heard of these you know as maybe maybe her i'm sorry is kind of like i'm sorry i'm not even black that how does that make sense? Like, maybe it was just confusion. Yeah. Like, hold on.
Starting point is 00:39:29 I'm getting to it, Buckwheat. What? That's crazy. Have you, I haven't watched those. I got to go watch those Our Gang ones again and see if he was, how bad the racial stereotype was against Buckwheat. I can't even remember. Oh, I think it's pretty bad.
Starting point is 00:39:46 Yeah. Yeah, I imagine, i i think i love them i wonder if you can i wonder if they're going to become harder to find because of that yeah uh with the left's rampage against all political incorrectness which is out of hand which by the way which leads us to entertainment you got it all right all right in entertainment let's talk about the first story well now i want to tie billy crystal into what we were just saying because he okay and a new york post article thursday to promote his new movie here today the nine-time oscars host was apparently asked about the state of comedy and cancel culture he said quote it's becoming a minefield and i get it i don't like it i understand
Starting point is 00:40:37 it i just keep doing what i'm doing and that's all you can do right now and he got a blowback on twitter so um somebody wrote it's amazing how many euphemisms and analogies are offered up for quote we're annoyed that white dudes can't just can't say whatever they want anymore one user wrote paul f tompkins chimed in all right he said imagine if all the minds were above ground and were labeled mine, and you got upset because someone asked you politely not to step on the mines. Huh. I can't believe Paul Tompkins doesn't think it's a little out of control. Well, I guess I don't know what we're talking about. I mean, we're talking about that in comedy,
Starting point is 00:41:21 there's certain things that if you talk about become lightning rods where people will critique it. They'll get on social media and blast you for it. They'll boo you. So how can how can Tompkins have any issue? I mean, I'm not defending Billy Crystal here, but every single comedian talks about how there's zero effort. When someone's trying to cancel someone, there's zero effort to look at the context. They just, an alarm goes off when a word is used.
Starting point is 00:41:53 Yeah. And every comedian, I mean, it's like, it's not even worth talking about now. Like everybody knows that. Now, I think maybe Paul is working in front of the same crowds all the time at Largo where everybody's on the same page. But when I work the real clubs, not that Largo is not a real club. I love Largo and Flanagan's a dear friend. But there is a certain type of crowd that goes to these rooms and they're all sort of like, you know, they're all on the same page. all sort of like you know they're all on the same page and if you if you do something in a comedy club on the road that's a little uh they require some context you know i'm i'm i'm a i'm a white guy and i'm saying things and i'm making fun of that i'm a white guy and there's no understanding
Starting point is 00:42:40 of that does that make sense yes totally i would differ though and say in that crowd very much one of the biggest names or most frequent names in Largo is Sarah Silverman. And I don't think she'll back away from a good rape joke and has even discussed that there are defendable rape jokes because of course it's not making fun of rape. There shouldn't be topics that you can't broach. And what's happened is they've just categorically said that certain people can't talk about certain things. And I disagree with that.
Starting point is 00:43:18 How about nobody, unless you're keeping the letters from me, no one came at me about my Caitaitlin uh jenner criticism nope you know well i guess we've attracted our own crowd i mean our our listeners understand that we're fucking around we're we're pushing boundaries to get a reaction there's nothing wrong with that we haven't pushed many boundaries today we're a little slow off the mark but why don't we try to jumpstart things i think a politically correct thing to say is uh caitlin jenner is just a stupid fucking woman how about that can we call her a stupid fucking woman yeah yeah i don't know i guess you know i guess you call what i like calling guys cunts more that's that's the british streak in me that Corden and everybody put in. Yeah. Yeah. And by the way, I didn't add this last week.
Starting point is 00:44:06 This stupid woman. Keep in mind, maybe I did say this, but obviously we went over the vehicular manslaughter, which she bought her way out of. By the way, that was, you know, that happened right after the transition. And of course, it was just a race to Twitter. Everyone was like, ah, women drivers. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But it was everywhere. But keep, this is the worst decision.
Starting point is 00:44:36 Think about the choices that when she's running for governor, you have to look at choices. That's what you're doing. What's your history? This person's best friend was fucking OJ Simpsonpson yeah how about that choice yeah and then married his other best friend's widow and knowingly consciously made the choice to enter the kardashian family who the fuck does that yeah no man has survived the kardashian family not bruce obviously not mr kardashian what about kanye yeah oh yeah he hasn't lost his mind and also he's out
Starting point is 00:45:12 did they divorce oh yeah they're getting divorced aren't they not one man has survived yeah i don't watch the show maybe one of those fucking are any of them i don't even know are they oh and what about the basketball player yeah hold up doing crack i think in the desert or like like totally sad story i'm not making light of it didn't survive the kardashians yeah interesting yeah i think you should do a bit about next time you do stand-up you should you should flesh that out and talk about i think that's a good bit here's my stupid woman bit you guys ready should i do it in largo do it at largo yeah by the way i'm not slamming largo i hope that doesn't come out that way i fucking love the crowds there i love working there i'm just saying that it's important to work
Starting point is 00:45:58 other rooms it's very heady it's very heady there it's very heady yeah um i'm starting to wake up a little bitch uh you want to do the next one entertainment story jamie lynn hingler 39 is the manager of a four-screen spotlight theater in minnesota she's been arrested on narcotics charges after she sold cocaine hidden in a bag of popcorn to a police informant. Yes. You want to reopen theaters? There's your niche. That's the way to go. Are you kidding me?
Starting point is 00:46:38 Oh, hey, you want to go to the movies? Yeah. By the way, we're going to go to the spotlight theaters. What's playing? Does not matter. We're going to be talking through it anyway. And here, here's me after like, Oh my God, did you see Minari? It's about this Korean. I think they're Korean. I don't know. Anyway,
Starting point is 00:46:54 they're Asian, but yeah, they're Asian for sure. Anyway, they go to Arkansas and they start farming and they kill baby chicks to pay the bills. Anyway, the grandmother moves in and she's starting to lose it. The kid pees in the bed. Like that's like, that's how exciting that I just make Minori sound? And then you're sitting there watching Nomadland with an eighth of blow up your nose, like, move it along! Yeah, right, right, right.
Starting point is 00:47:16 They're doing the previews. Is this the movie? How come this is not in the movie? I thought, I didn't know we were gonna see a Marvel movie. Why is it so loud? Listen, I might leave early because I'm gonna go write a screenplay. I said Coke and popcorn, not Coke in the popcorn.
Starting point is 00:47:32 It's great. I don't know why. I mean, the police informant, don't you have bigger fish to fry? Let them sell cocaine in a popcorn. Right. Right. Right? It's going to be tough to snort it because it's gonna be all soggy with butter on it i know with your 3d glasses just doing little bumps off your key like
Starting point is 00:47:54 that's the funniest image everyone with those crazy block glasses powder on their nose, sniff it. You're going to be excited about this. Your good friend, Greg Gutfeld, the debut week of Fox News Channel's new late night program, Gutfeld topped broadcast program NBC's The Tonight Show. It tied Jimmy Kimmel Live, outpaced Comedy Central's The Daily Show, and Conan.
Starting point is 00:48:26 He averaged 1.5 million viewers. Wow. More than Real Time with Bill Maher, James Corden, everybody. How dare you? And I got to say, I think it's just the power of his comedy. He's just so fucking funny. Like, I'm constantly quoting Gutfeld. He's just so fucking funny.
Starting point is 00:48:44 Like I'm constantly quoting Gutfeld. So whenever stuff comes on and even debates or whatever, I watch, I go to Fox, right? I don't need to be in the echo chamber and I can't stand, just so people don't tune out here, I can't stand some of the left commentators as much as I hate the right ones as well. But I go to Fox News because like, I do want to see their take on shit
Starting point is 00:49:02 and especially when they ignore stuff. But the verdict came in from Minnesota, and he was on there. And, of course, he's promoting his show, and there's like six talking heads in boxes. They're like, thoughts on verdict, thoughts on verdict. And, of course, they were all very happy with the verdict. What else are they going to say? And he goes, you know what? Yeah, I'm going to say it.
Starting point is 00:49:24 You know what yeah i'm gonna say it you know what i'm i'm happy he was guilty and want to be guilty even if they didn't even if they didn't prove it and all five hosts to their credit were like what no not like they were like no no no no no you can't say that yeah he's he's like a complete idiot like that's the one thing you couldn't say that day yeah you could actually say you know what i hate to be this guy i don't think it was an open and shut case i think it was very emotional and i think it was you know it was excessive and everything but technically he didn't break you know like maybe you're a person with that view okay right you could state that what he stated no one can get on board with yeah like i just wanted him
Starting point is 00:50:13 to be guilty because i hated what i saw like it doesn't matter if they proved it yeah yeah we got a letter from somebody i thought was kind of interesting uh this woman suzy wrote in uh i've been thinking about your question why are the late night hosts lefties because they're all lefties i have a murky theory i attend the episcopal church okay murky several years ago i was asked to participate in a focus group of christians who support gay marriage we had a counterpart group of christians who did not support it the end, the staff conducting the focus groups commented that our conversations were full of lively laughter, while the other group had been very serious answering all the questions. They asked us why we thought that was. My answer was that it is hard to be joyful when you're discussing your various levels of
Starting point is 00:51:00 intolerance. Our cultural right at this time is very intolerant of a lot of groups of people it's hard to jest about that it's much easier and funnier and lighter to satirize intolerance i think that's kind of interesting that's very interesting although the left is shutting a lot of shit down and being intolerant too so no it's true it's hard to say which side is uh yeah more oppressive at this point but it's the it's the least funny when they are doing that. I mean, it is true. Like when you're, you know, anyway, whatever. All right.
Starting point is 00:51:34 Good for you, Gutfeld, whatever his name is. Yeah. All right. How about SNL? By the way, this is Sunday. How do you think SNL is going to go tonight, though? Saturday. I mean, you know, obviously, I'm so tired I can't even articulate a sentence. How do you think SNL is going to go tonight though Saturday I mean you know obviously I'm so tired I can't even articulate a sentence how do you think SNL is going to go tonight we're
Starting point is 00:51:49 taping this before SNL well SNL will be hosted tonight by the great uh the great Elon Musk Elon Musk and you know it is it's not always comedians that host the show. Like they've had Giuliani, Steinbrenner, Ralph Nader, and of course, Donald Trump. Oh, yeah. So it's not that weird, except that the guy is admittedly has like Asperger's, doesn't he? I mean, is he even capable of saying something funny? His tweets can be pretty amusing, I have to say. Oh, yeah?
Starting point is 00:52:27 And you've heard him on Rogan, right? He smoked pot on Rogan, I guess, famously. But you've heard him. I don't know. I'm interested to see. What do I give a shit? It's not like it's going to soil SNL. Like, you know, who cares?
Starting point is 00:52:40 That's like this controversy. Yeah, this controversy I don't get. Miley Cyrus is the musical guest, so they'll still get a big uh a lot of people are going to watch um oh no without her forget that without her a ton of people are gonna and that's why they have them yeah i guess there was controversy in that well you know there's people that hate him for his business tendencies and the anti-union thing and all that stuff. But I guess, you know, his vaccine comments and kind of, I remember hearing him on Rogan sort of downplaying the virus. Now don't fucking write in all angry if you're on the Elon Musk army and you
Starting point is 00:53:18 listen to that. I actually did listen to that podcast on Rogan. And he didn't know what he was talking about he was proudly saying you know i took four tests two came out negative the tests don't even make sense but he's not a scientist you know i just want to hear if you're going to talk about that be responsible and maybe um maybe at least quote some scientists when you're talking about it he's also a little bit of a hypocrite because he's all about green, renewable energy and his electric cars and all that. But then at the same time, he's a huge supporter of Bitcoin. And I think he just made like a one point five billion dollar investment in Bitcoin. And you can buy Teslas with Bitcoin. And, you know, they say that the amount of energy
Starting point is 00:54:01 it takes to support that block blockchain is enough to power Norway. Like a day of power usage to support Bitcoin could do all the energy in Norway or all of the windmills in the world combined. So for Bitcoin? Yeah, Bitcoin, for some reason, the amount of computer energy necessary to run it. Can you believe that shit? Yeah, I don't even know. I understand Bitcoin less now somehow than I did four minutes ago.
Starting point is 00:54:34 Did you invest in it? Yeah, I did one of those side funds, you know, an ETF and whatever. It's actually up a little, but I got in late, of course. Anyway, I'm surprised it didn't crash. Accepting Bitcoin as payment is an interesting proposition because it's, listen, I know the dollar value goes up and down, but the amount that Bitcoin's value fluctuates, it's kind of like saying, hey, can I pay for this car? Here's my stub from Vegas, I bet on the Buccaneers to win the Super Bowl. So this might be worth way more than the car in a few months. Yeah. Yeah. I want to buy a Tesla. Here's an IOU from this guy I shot pool with in Boston three years ago.
Starting point is 00:55:24 Totally. Let's do some Florida, man. Oh, what do we got? There we go. Oh, I think the pandemic is over, y'all. The Hemingway lookalike Contest returns to the Florida Keys. Yeah! They skipped a year because of the virus. The annual Hemingway Lookalike Contest, though,
Starting point is 00:55:57 is set to return to Florida Keys this summer. It's the 40th contest. It's, of course, hosted at Sloppy Joe's Bar, and the bar also plans to stage its running of the bulls which is a parade of earnest hemingway lookalikes some riding on fake bulls with wheels wow that's fun it sounds like it should be running of the bears i mean it's not only these big hairy guys but they're all in key west yeah oh my god if i was gay i'd have a one-way ticket to the keys right now it should they should actually hold it in portland if they want people that look like ernest hemingway big hairy guys that love cats yeah in key west can you get any gayer you know there's a lot of speculation that mr macho was gay oh and he was
Starting point is 00:56:46 just i never heard that before he was overcompensating his whole life yeah yeah that all the macho bullshit you know obviously was a reaction in an exterior but or you know maybe that he was fluid i don't know but i i don't know i shouldn't even i do i did read it anyway I have no idea if there's any merit to it huh yeah interesting I know trying to think of if there's examples in his book well the sun the sun s-o-n the sun also rises I don't know it's a little weird yeah um all right uh let's do an international story. Yeah, what's up with this? A large Chinese rocket is out of control. It's set to reenter Earth's atmosphere this weekend, bringing a final wave of concern before its debris makes impact somewhere
Starting point is 00:57:45 on Earth. Oh, phew. I thought it was going to be near me. We're going to ignore all jokes in light of sensitivity to Asian people. We're going to ignore all jokes about bad driving by the Chinese and just
Starting point is 00:58:02 focus instead. Sounds like you snuck it in there. Okay, go ahead. The long rocket, it's about 100 feet tall, weighs 22 tons, is going to enter around May 8th, which is today, Saturday.
Starting point is 00:58:18 Oh. Wow. Kung Pao chicken's going to be cold by then. Is it delivering? What's wrong with that joke? There's's wrong with that joke there's nothing wrong with that by the way if you think about it chinese delivery in new york city i mean i i don't know what it was like but like that was the thing like i think they deserve credit for where we are now where everyone's getting all like all these meals delivered and everything like that like that was the it was the only food you got delivered right you didn't get it back then i mean i'm sure there were places that would deliver you a pizza but it wasn't like it was the norm all of Manhattan ordering Chinese food yeah uh and if you were a writer
Starting point is 00:59:08 yeah what if you were a writer I mean that was famous going back to like your show of shows and all these shows where they would order in lunch every day they got Chinese food delivered every day to the writer's room divorced dad in New York the only thing in his fridge rock hard boxes of white rice that were in there I don't even know how long but that's what was in the that's what was in that bachelor's fridge yeah and soy and soy sauce packets yeah it was it's almost weird to go like Chinese restaurants here's the thing about Chinese restaurants in New York I find a lot of them too dirty to eat in I mean I'm talking about going back to the 80s and 90s. Yet I would eat it when they brought it to my house.
Starting point is 00:59:51 Right. Yeah. None of the germs travel. Yeah. But, and it was fast. You'd be like, okay, so I'll be there. Ding dong. Like they're at your door before you hang up.
Starting point is 01:00:04 Right. Right. It was so efficient. so great. Imagine how many of them died on their bikes, they're dressed in dark clothing, flying around New York City in the rain. And of course, by the way, when it rained, that's when everybody ordered in. That's right. What do you think is the biggest takeout day of the year? Oh, that's right. What do you think is the biggest takeout day of the year? Oh, that's interesting. I think I heard it was like the day. Oh, no. Super Bowl. Probably the Super Bowl.
Starting point is 01:00:33 But I think also the day before or after Thanksgiving. I think the day before Thanksgiving. Huh. That doesn't make sense to me. I mean, we're not counting ingredients delivery, like groceries delivery, right? No food. Chris, will you look that up when you get a chance? I told you about, I told you about my dumb sketch idea. I want to do where it's Benihana and it's Benihana to go like during the pandemic and all the Uber Eats guys and the Grubhub, all the mess, all the delivery guys are waiting around
Starting point is 01:01:05 and the guys flip in like a shrimp in their hat. He's like, we don't need a show. This is a to-go order. And he's like, no, look at the heart. It smokes, it smokes. It's like, holy shit, just put it in a box. I think it's a good sketch. I had an idea for a sketch of like
Starting point is 01:01:22 a guy who gets the, you know, they have topless house cleaners. They come to your house and they, they clean your house. Yeah. Like, all right. Yeah. What? Go ahead. And the guy, the guy orders it, but he's bummed out. Cause he has to work that day. So he just, he gives her her own key. Yeah. has to work that day so he just he gives her her own key yeah a terrible yelp review they didn't dust yeah yeah right but also yeah what is that about like i mean clearly it's prostitution it's not just a like so the guy's gonna sit on his guy or girl is going to sit on their couch watching this topless woman and then he moves rooms with her. Yeah. Yeah. And doesn't help. Like I know when we have we have a house cleaner, she comes over every other week and she's great.
Starting point is 01:02:17 But I always feel guilty because I do have free time. And if I have nothing to do when she's coming over, I can't sit and watch TV while she cleans the house. I can't sit and read a magazine while she's cleaning the house. I feel like I have to go out. I get to get out of her way. But also I don't want her to look at me like, look at you fucking rich guy, just sitting there while I do your work.
Starting point is 01:02:39 Why can't you do this work? Imagine an angry topless cleaning woman and you're sitting around will you lift up your feet i'm vacuuming like just yeah lift up my feet i'm naked that that's what you're gonna say i was okay so chris denman wrote uh the night before thanksgiving is the biggest day of the year for the food delivery uh halloween is the biggest day for pizza bullshit you're chris go fuck yourself you think halloween's bigger than the super bowl for pizza wrong i don't the news what this is like this reminds me of neil neil brennan had a joke last night that he said uh he goes here's the new thing is people have opinions about facts like he's writing down facts and you're having an
Starting point is 01:03:32 opinion about it it's not a fact where does he get his facts the orlando sentinel oh print it florida money in the bank yeah uh all right speaking of money in the bank. Yeah. All right, speaking of money in the bank, let's talk about sports. Oh, segues. Conor McGregor. Can't believe what he saw from Floyd Mayweather. I saw that clip. I saw it. At a press event in Miami to promote his exhibition boxing match with YouTube star Logan Paul,
Starting point is 01:04:00 Mayweather was at the center of a melee after logan's brother fellow youtuber we're gonna get a letter it's mel not melee melee go ahead what did i say no you said it right i'm just saying it's one of those um fellow youtuber jake paul removed his cap from his head it was at that moment with cameras surrounding them that mayweather attacked jake leading to a chaotic scene in the bowels of the hard rock stadium anyway you slice it 44 year old mayweather brawling with a 24 year old youtuber with just three professional fights all wins against non-boxers is a sad sight for mcgregor to see and he let that be known in an instagram post in which he tagged mayweather quote the kid actually just pulled this shambles of a situation floyd is in out of the drain for him he should thank him it's embarrassing pro to pro it's
Starting point is 01:04:53 embarrassing he will not scratch 10 million dollars for this fight and he knows it the world is watching this on twitter he'd fight half decent pro and command to 20 million dollars upwards he'd fight half decent pro and command to 20 million dollars upwards yet it's this shit whatever way you spin it it's sad fight someone for real on your record or fuck off mate slap head i think he slapped his head who's he criticizing mayweather yeah he's saying why are you fucking around with this youtuber you know this is you're you're lowering yourself. Well, I'm going to watch because I'm, I guess, hoping for a death in the ring. Yes. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:33 I mean, I see the 20-year age difference, but I mean, Mayweather is one of the greatest of all time. I think he is the greatest of all time. You can't hit that guy. I do wish he was more of an offensive, but he will just take this take them apart. I was reading about this kid I read an article about Jake Paul, and he started one of these houses it's like, you know, for influencers. he did this thing where he would find influencers who were on their way up and he'd invite them into the house one of them was like 14 years old and he would basically garnish their wages and give them like a small percentage of what they were earning and keep the rest himself and he would like play prank like really mean pranks on people like one guy had a had an electric piano that he
Starting point is 01:06:22 used it was like his fuck kept him sane and he threw it in the pool he was just like a real fucking douchebag to everybody okay now i like him you talked to me into it anyone who's fucking with influencers i'm a fan right right i know influences really are if there is the lowest rung of entertainment it's influencers in terms of what they bring to the table yeah yeah and yet they're making the most money i don't know i don't know if it's up or above or below brand ambassador all right all right what do we got speaking of brand ambassadors yeah brady just bought a boat remember he bought a boat like six months ago i sure do it was like a 55 foot boat yes and he at the he bought it uh it was two million dollar boat he bought it the same week
Starting point is 01:07:13 that he received a two million dollar ppp check from the government because he was unemployed that year i guess yeah uh it was fucking bullshit anyway he's trading that boat in and he's getting a six million dollar boat um uh this one's 20 feet longer he said he needs it because uh uh it will be a little more suited for what we need down here which is a few more day trips and weekend trips we spent a lot of time in the bahamas. So going from the East Coast of Florida across the Bahamas and around the Bahamas would be really great trips for us as a family. Is he the most boring human being of all time? I don't know. That sounds pretty cool.
Starting point is 01:07:52 But I will say, man, when people are literally, like, food deprived and there's, like, it's just have some self-awareness. You know what? Buy your fucking boat. Don't talk to anybody about it. Yeah. Nothing can sound good. Yeah. By the way, your boat has a 200-gallon capacity for fuel, and it gets, at best, 460 miles.
Starting point is 01:08:20 So this boat is – by the way, I think that's generous. I think that is. I grabbed that that's yeah that is i grab that stat from the boats press release that's kind of like your car getting 35 miles a gallon when it doesn't get fucking close to that you have to be going downhill and neutral so even them bragging with i think an inflated mileage it's still two and a half miles a gallon can you get to the bahamas is the bahamas 460 miles away from florida oh yeah it's less than 100 huh bimini is really close it's off of like fort lauderdale or something it's like you can't see it i don't even think on the clearest day but i think it's like 40 or 50 miles of course everyone can write in and tell me how little i know about geography jesus yeah it's straight off there

Starting point is 01:15:27 first commercially produced birth control pill um it was uh it was it was commissioned by birth control pioneer margaret sanger and funded by heiress katherine mccormick sanger who opened the first birth control clinic in 1916 hoped to encourage the development of a more practical and effective alternative to contraceptives that were in use at the time i think there was controversy about margaret sanger though some people say that she was like a a eugenicist what do you call it when you want to control uh poor poor people procreating republican come on and she doesn't want any of these babies to vote um so anyway uh yeah big deal for women it changed changed how women behaved with birth control yeah i love it yeah um i don't even know the status we're so old i don't even know the status like it's like the morning after pill being abused i have no idea the morning after pill i believe is I have no idea. The morning after pill, I believe,

Starting point is 01:19:49 thought she was hot a lot of people wrote in said she was super attractive they're excited to hear what she's very attractive and what a soul she ran to the she ran to the front line during this pandemic that's right and she's been doing yoga for 15 years. So, hey, now. You'd be an idiot not to join us for lunch. What are you doing? This one comes from Andy in San Diego. I know it's been a running joke, but after listening to today's show, I think it's pretty obvious that Mike's sexual preference is not women. Last week, Mike sounded like he wanted to fly to a midwest city to explore the guest listener call call his internal horoscope today mike was so hesitant to go out with a blonde yoga addict whom is half his age the writing has been on the wall since mike is in the closet but also
Starting point is 01:20:37 in the closet mike is a meta oh jesus what's a meta like i guess there's alpha beta and whatever a meta is i don't know i thought meta was like another like fourth wall down level of uh doing something a joke on it the joke is right i don't know but that's not how he means it i think he just means I'm a bottom. Yeah. All right. Someone tell me what meta Chris is pretending. He doesn't know what a meta is right now. There is Matthew Eaton said, Hey, Greg, you mentioned on your podcast and Sunday papers about public golf courses being used for the homeless, a great idea.
Starting point is 01:21:23 Everyone should be behind save fox news and corolla malcolm gladwell did an insanely interesting podcast about the laws in la specifically that allows use of huge spaces for a silly game spoiler it ain't fair thought you'd find it interesting love the podcast thanks for all the laughs so you, you know, I mean, look, if they're going to have to house the homeless somewhere, where else are you going to find that much open real estate except for a golf course? I have an idea. People are not going to like it. Yeah. Let them sleep in a cemetery. Oh, wow. Wow. There's plenty of dead things under the earth all over the place. It's not just cemeteries.
Starting point is 01:22:06 You might be sleeping on top of a dinosaur. I don't know where this is going, but all I'm saying is it's just sitting there. People don't even play on it. And you've already got the headboard. It's right there. It's got someone's name on it. Yeah. You probably have nice flowers. Yep. And it'll make you sleep because there's so many people that are in a permanent sleep i think it would be intoxicating you don't think they'd be comforted the souls that are uh that are in that cemetery that graveyard and you would save money on having to have a guard to stop the grave diggers i've probably told this before but you you know the story when my uh when my grandmother died we're all at the thing and my dad had bought i guess five plots or but but
Starting point is 01:22:56 i think it was like three and two on top of each whatever however graveyards work but you can put you know you can put caskets on top of each other okay like you can buy a deeper grave and it's for whatever so we get there and they see that there's no casket down below anyway there's confusion we have this guy in a box a woman in a box sorry ready to bury her with her deceased husband who died in the 70s and um total confusion the groundskeepers call over like the manager he drives his car up comes over and he's like yeah 360 to plot 362 whatever 362 is the next headstone over it's another family and that's where my grandfather had been buried and my uncle john without missing a beat and in front of everybody dressed in black and mourning goes you mean i've been pissing on the
Starting point is 01:23:52 wrong grave all these years swear to god it's like not even like it would be a hacky joke if i made that up he really said that oh that's amazing yeah i gotta visit my dad's grave i don't i i used to go i bet it's the same cemetery yeah i bet it is it's uh westchester gates of heaven i think it's called yeah yeah oh wait the one in westchester or that is that the one in brooklyn uh well the bronx has so many i think the bronx ones are filled up it's unbelievable how many fucking uh cemeteries are on the bronx yeah but no westchester's got some space he's probably up there my dad's got a nice spot up on a hill good view i'm gonna go visit him i'm gonna be in new york uh this summer i'm gonna go visit the grave again yeah and build on it get one of those kit houses
Starting point is 01:24:45 that you know that gets delivered you set it up yeah what a view you own that land that's right uh lars almost shelter uh then this one comes from uh reese reese says love you guys listen to Listen to every episode of all three of your podcasts. Whoa. Question. When you sit down to read a newspaper, do you crumple it into a ball or just quietly lay it out flat? That loud crinkle sound you make into the microphone is incorrect. Newspaper reading is largely silent except for a little flapping and maybe a quick snap if you fold it back. The sound you do is more
Starting point is 01:25:25 like when you shove newspaper balls into the fireplace and it goes on for so long uh would you please consider not doing that anymore people like me suffer from misophonia would appreciate it so much i won't quit listening if you keep doing it but it would be such a nice favor if you'd stop because it causes me to become enraged and on the verge of tears. Jesus. Can we, yeah, are we looking up misophonia? Misophonia. And meta? Is he a meta misophonia, phoniac?
Starting point is 01:26:02 Huh. I have tinnitus, by the way. Oh, dude, I have have ringing in my ear the good news is it's in both ears you want you want it to be in both yeah mine's in both ears it's kind of it's that old ray romano joke he's like oh you know i felt he felt a lump he's like in him he's like first handers oh it's on the other side too like i can can't do Ray Romano, but anyway, he like checks for the what is it called? Symmetry. That's not the word, but he wants, if it's on both sides, it's a, it's not a tumor. Right. It could be, I guess a big one. But yeah, I, I heard about tinnitus. And as soon as I heard about it,
Starting point is 01:26:41 I stopped and I listened and I was like, Oh yeah, I got loud buzzing in my ear and now i'm so aware of it that i listen to audiobooks going to sleep i can barely hear the book over the buzzing in my ears now that i'm aware of it hey jut your lower jaw out does the pitch get higher yeah same mine gets really hard and if i do it long enough when i go back to normal it's kind of gone like that's how i get to sleep sometimes it's a really attractive thing can you play jethro rothall songs why what's that what do you mean he plays the flute right yeah um no i have i have ringing and they say someone just goes away on on its own, but mine's clearly, maybe I'm grinding my teeth or something.
Starting point is 01:27:27 Dude, I looked it up. It's something like 15% of Americans have tinnitus. I think it's called tinnitus, which is a bullshit proper pronunciation. Are you serious? I swear. I think it's called tinnitus. Okay. Meta.
Starting point is 01:27:43 Chris, we need the pronunciation on tinnitus we need meta and what else do we need what's this guy what's this phobia this guy is suffering from he says he has it chris says i've been accused of having it noise noises bother me more than others well what an excellent selection we've made as a fucking editor of a podcast. Noises bother him. How did Reese have time to write such a long letter on paper crinkles when he's digesting three-year podcasts a week? Well, Reese is not a man. It's a woman. You don't know how they identify other than something phobic? Yeah. It sounds more like a, does it sound like a man or a female to be bothered by noise oh he thinks meta is a typo huh what what could it have been let's look at the keys let's try to
Starting point is 01:28:33 he's a meta he's a meta he's they're all over the place those keys all right oh he's thinking maybe they meant beta he's a mets fan oh he meant meta instead of beta yeah that makes sense oh i'm a beta yeah okay yeah um we're speaking of betas and that's all folks in the obituaries this week uh the obituaries this week uh homie answer he was part of the answer family all right and he uh he the family has nine indy 500 wins between them began racing young uh his winning career began at the pike's peak hill climb blah blah blah he had an early crash that kept him from glory he would win his first indy in 1967 he became the first driver to exceed 170 miles per hour there wow uh he's won it and he also won it in 75 and 81 uh in 81 though there was a controversy because i guess when they were there was an accident and
Starting point is 01:29:47 you know they wave i think it's the yellow flag and you're supposed to do laps and not not pass anybody you're not supposed to change position yeah well he passed eight cars during the caution and so they stripped him of the win and then he protested and they gave him the win back again wow but i feel i feel like that with um like last night doing stand-up you could see people were rusty like neil brennan was like i feel really rusty but then uh other people who had been really writing and were really ready went up and i sort of felt like this last year should have been a yellow flag for everybody in life i don't want to hear that you wrote a fucking novel i don't want to see that you've got flat abs nobody else did that you should not have improved yourself you should not
Starting point is 01:30:35 have tried 2020 was a yellow flag lap i like that yeah did you do that on stage? No, I should. That's a lot of people would relate to that. Yeah. Is anyone else feeling bummed? And this is the not to sound pretentious, but or too beta. But it's a very existentialist thought. There was something obviously I'm always expecting the shoe to drop, whether it's the stock market, the earthquake, right? And there was something comforting in this. Like I remember there's, there's a book, I think it's called the movie goer, I think is the name of it. And it's like kind of talked about as the existentialist novel. And I didn't get it. I don't, I didn't understand what existentialist meant, but what it was, was he felt joy when he like got in a car accident on the way like to work because an existentialist view is just there's nothingness it's just blandness it's blah blah it's just the same old shit and so when something interrupts even if it's very disruptive it's actually you
Starting point is 01:31:39 feel alive right and like when when i was a kid it wasn't just praying for snow days because i didn't do my homework it just disrupted the world like i liked when then it was like it was almost validating because i thought i guess i have a sneaking suspicion that's going to happen so when this pandemic happened i'm like of course yeah there was something validating to my stupid worldview that everything isn't working it's going to break down at some point because this is just a pyramid scheme thing and now i find things going back to normal are making me a little depressed i know i shouldn't say that out loud but like no i think a lot of people are feeling that yeah and i haven't accomplished shit yeah yeah no i think it's really important that people and
Starting point is 01:32:24 that's why i want to take some mushrooms i think it's really important that people and that's why i want to take some mushrooms i think it's really important that people just seriously that write off this year and they give themselves a break i am in the worst physical shape i've been in in my life all my muscles i've either disappeared or they're sagging i've got a fucking belly and uh and i'm starting to go to the gym now and i can't find it in me to get back into that headspace that i i used to go to the gym and i'd fucking work hard for an hour four days a week i was good and now i can't find it in me and i need to snap back and it's really hard yeah well i think you should do that bit on stage because i think it's not only val i think people
Starting point is 01:33:04 would really relate yeah all right you should you should do that like on stage because I think it's not only valid. I think people would really relate. Yeah. You should do that. And the race car analogy, you could probably come up with a couple of others. It's a really good one. Yeah. Everyone just keeps circling. You, you, you. Stop. Stop with the puzzles.
Starting point is 01:33:19 Yeah. Puzzles are kind of cruising in neutral. Get back to the puzzle neutral get back to the puzzle get back to the puzzle stop doing fucking burpees meanwhile we're being very insulting to our listeners right now
Starting point is 01:33:34 because we started this podcast during the pandemic that's true we're always working from a deficit model what about our surplus see we're doing stuff We found it in us. We're always working from a deficit model. What about our surplus? Right, right. See, we're doing stuff. Speaking of surplus.
Starting point is 01:33:51 Oh, transition. Don't do that, Reese. That poor guy is being driven crazy. Sorry, Reese. How about this? Oh, shit. I didn't get a family circus. Oh, are we stopping fucking family circus?
Starting point is 01:34:02 I put a family circus in there for you because you were working from a deficit today i did i was i was all right we got a note from somebody who said fans of newspaper comics will instantly notice something missing in many of the strips this friday pants more than 25 cartoonists behind strips from blondie to zippy the pinhead there's a comic called zippy the pinhead yes are celebrated is comic called Zippy the Pinhead? Yes. Are celebrating, is that like a buckwheat kind of a thing? Don't ask me about it.
Starting point is 01:34:30 Go ahead. They're celebrating the quirky holiday No Pants Day that helps charities get clothing to those in need. So participating artists are drawing their characters without trousers and urging readers to donate clothing to thrift and secondhand stores aren't hit by covid19 yeah let me donate my clothes to a thrift store so they can mark it up by fucking eight thousand percent and sell it to a hipster and and buy a second home in malibu that's what i should do great so the keens get to do less work
Starting point is 01:35:03 because they don't have to draw pants this week yeah right oh i can't wait to see snoopy without pants that'll be interesting don't a lot of them not have pants on anyway yeah a lot of the animals do but in the first one the lockhorns leroy leroy's walking out of the house with no pants he's got his briefcase and a cup loretta goes hold on leroy i think you've gotten too used to working from home oh contemporary yep yeah it's kind of like it's like modern drummer that's modern yeah um i uh by the way hager never seen him with pants go ahead it's true i've never seen any of the women in the castles that he invades with pants on not when he's done no they were on leroy in the second one leroy is standing in front of the
Starting point is 01:35:51 beauty salon with loretta and he says to her after all those years of teasing your hair it finally fought back this guy writes jokes he's fucking he's great he's great all right now dennis the menace is standing with another kid and they have no pants on but there's a banner that says may 7th no pants day across their groin area so you can't see their cocks and dennis says i hope mr wilson knows about this it's not bad i I don't know. It sounds a little petty. It sounds a little pedo, doesn't it? Yeah, I think Mr. Wilson does know about this.
Starting point is 01:36:33 Yeah, I think he does. Yeah, come on, you guys. Hey, I got cookies. All right, here's a family circus. I put it in for you. All right, I'm going to read it. You ready? It's a circle.
Starting point is 01:36:44 You have an old woman leaning in i'm presumably the grandmother and wait let me make this bigger here this fucking circle she is holding a box of crayons and she's talking to these two ridiculous kids with their orange hair and who did you just take it away for you oh geez it just disappeared there we go and they're coloring and coloring books and she clearly with dementia picks up the box of crayons and says crayons can teach us a good lesson and then she goes they're different colors have strange names, but all learn to live together in the same box. Huh. Okay.
Starting point is 01:37:31 Strange is a hard one to defend, but I bet, I bet, I don't know if a grandmother with dementia can defend it, but I might've gone with a different word. Then strange. Maybe new or unusual. Uh-huh. Yeah. but strange technically can be defended it's you know they're going to be strange to that especially these two little special kids but um yeah it's also a little interesting that jeff and bill keen uh if there is a box of crayons with different colors they choose the same fucking color for every kid's hair they're all the exact same orange how about some burnt sienna how about some fucking uh chocolate try
Starting point is 01:38:12 try out the other crayons bill jess are you in a rush to get to your tea time or use and by the way pick any crayon and write a fucking joke how about that i? I don't care what color it is. By the way, this is a little weird. Dementia grandma could have gone another way. Crayons can teach us a good lesson. So many different colors with unusual, strange names are put in a box by white people and kept there, forced to live in a crammed, poor environment that white people will occasionally take out and use. By the way, have you ever seen a black person in family circus?
Starting point is 01:38:52 No. Are you kidding me? No. Never once. I don't know what the, yeah, that's why the grandmother's an outlier. That black crayon is- The parents are probably furious. That black crayon is super sharp. Sitting in the corner of that box
Starting point is 01:39:05 grandma is grandma selling you her liberal lies um all right here's uh oh blondie so i hear about this and i'm like oh fucking great we're gonna see we're gonna see uh blondie's twat i already see it yep and of course who's got no pants on jackass bumstead how do they not show her without pants on so dagwood walks in with no pants on he's got his donut underwear on because he's a child and his secretary says oh i see you're participating in no pants day to support clothing for the homeless and And he goes, how'd you hear about that? Second frame is everybody in the office has no pants on. All right, let's play that out in the real world.
Starting point is 01:39:51 How quickly would you lose your job if you showed up with no pants on and walked up to your secretary? Well, especially if you're demanding that you stand up to see what she's not wearing. Hey, now. Hey. Well, yeah, it would happen. I think, boy, you can really hide behind a charity, though. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:40:15 Oh, yeah. No, the charity would be helping you out after you lose your job and you're on the street with no fucking pants. You can buy your own pants back. All right. There we go. Anyway. All right, Mike, right listen we muscled through it i think we both were very low energy today but we but we did it we did do it yeah did we i don't know i'm beta whatever so there's that my alpha was a little uh fuzzy today my alpha
Starting point is 01:40:44 status i'm gonna go back and check in and of itself all right did you see anything we didn't talk about that you see you watch anything interesting uh we have been why oh my god we've been watching the keepers did you ever watch that about the nun who was killed oh my oh i did i watched that when it came out. Oh, dude, that, I mean, as if the church needed another fucking indictment against it, generally speaking, not specifically. It's so damning. Yeah. It's brutal.
Starting point is 01:41:17 It is so, because the thing that's so brutal about it is how insurmountable a case is against the church where all the information is being uh thrown out pushed down controlled like it it's it's not a civil case it's a church case if you want to if you want to accuse a priest of molestation you have to get the church to condemn him not not bring in police because there's no there's no evidence and the guy has been moved did is it one part or is it multiple parts oh no it's multiple parts and have you finished it no and we can't binge them because we watch one and then i go to bed and i can barely sleep it's so disturbing uh i
Starting point is 01:42:05 don't want to spoil it have uh have you learned what goes on in the principal's office yeah okay i didn't know if that was yeah when the woman by the way it's coming back to me now i saw it so long ago yeah press memory about it how admirable right well how admirable is that woman who says if she gets her mind really quiet she starts to remember the trauma yeah that that's pretty impressive for that woman to go there well it brings up you know uh this is a big issue the suppressed the suppressed memory is that what it's called repressed repressed memories yeah and you know the this woman had repressed memories for 15 or 20 years before they came back to her but the trauma was so intense it literally um i don't think i'm
Starting point is 01:42:59 spoiling by saying that there was a you know there were priests that were molesting girls. Not thank God, but in a different take on this, women are being molested. And they just shoved it down. And because they came from a world where you could not conceive that a priest would do something bad. So when they did do it bad, it made so little sense
Starting point is 01:43:22 that you were able to compartmentalize it and shove it down. And actually worse, this bastard, this is the part I didn't know if you had seen this part yet. But he not only would like on the like, well, Cindy, whatever, Sullivan, come down to the principal's office. The nun teacher excuses Cindy. She goes and then Cindy comes back and is the traumatization is so written all over her face yeah that the nun teacher is like what the fuck so that's kind of the premise of this of this documentary and i won't go on beyond that have you gone to where
Starting point is 01:43:58 he had guests in his own yeah police policemen because then they can never get in trouble yeah because he because the priest has that now on the police department right right it's so insidious it's so insane how many lives were destroyed because of this school because it's the school it's the school yes you know it may have been the principal but every there's no fucking way that the principal is calling girls to his office over the loudspeaker who come out traumatized if you're a teacher you should be tuned into your students enough to know that they were just raped on a daily basis well. Yep. And it did not turn out well. That's right.
