Jimmy the Hair Guy coming at you because Walt was too under the weather to record this week's
Patreon plug.
So this Tuesday on the TSD Patreon, it's one of my favorite Patreon shows.
The all new Sunday Jeff show.
And who doesn't love the all new Sunday Jeff show?
Sunday Jeff is the fucking best.
Let's hear a quick clip from this week's show.
It was such a sweet moment the other night we were out.
You heard about Robert Sala, the head coach of the Jets, right?
He got fired.
He was forcibly removed by security from the premises, the Jets headquarters.
His father works up there.
At the stadium.
At the stadium.
He wondered if his father was one of the team that had to forcibly remove Sala from the
premises.
He, with no fucking hint of like humor –
Trevor Burrus He wasn't kidding.
Aaron Ross I was like, my father could take Robert Sala.
Trevor Burrus Physically, not mentally.
Aaron Ross Physically, yeah.
Aaron Ross How old is your father?
Trevor Burrus Getting there, 80.
Aaron Ross I had the same reaction.
Trevor Burrus You met my father though.
Aaron Ross He's a big man but he's still 80 years old now.
Trevor Burrus He can still throw a punch.
He's got that guinea soup.
Aaron Ross I'm not going to lie.
I'm not going to lie.
I'm not going to lie.
I'm not going to lie.
I'm not going to lie.
I'm not going to lie.
I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not going to lie. I'm not big man but he's still 80 years old now.
He can still throw a punch.
He's got that guinea soup bone.
I'm sorry but Roderick...
It's like Mr. Burns.
So it's the all new Sunday Jeff Show this week and next week it's Tales From Behind
the Fake Counter.
So what are you waiting for?
Go subscribe today!
Wow, two breakfasts. What a fuck a wild man. Cut that cough out, I don't want to sound old. All the horses are running around Route 36.
Looks like the animal farm out there.
Tell them Steve, Dave.
Hello and welcome to this week's edition of Tell them Steve, Dave, your place for politics
free chat.
Hey, Walt.
Hey.
And hey, Sunday Jeff.
Hello.
We got Sunday Jeff here this week.
Walt, that's a nice –
Where's BQ?
Nice surprise BQ.
He's out.
Hollywood.
You know how he does it.
He went out to Hollywood.
Literally Hollywood.
Hollywood.
Yeah, he's out in LA.
Really?
He texted me a picture of when we lived out there together in our apartment, our favorite
restaurant that we used to go to.
Gone. No, it's there. It's still there. Yeah restaurant that we used to go to. Matthew Feeney-Sproat Don?
John McAllister No, it's there.
Matthew Feeney-Sproat Oh, it's still there?
John McAllister Yeah, but it made me envious.
Matthew Feeney-Sproat What was the name of it?
John McAllister The griddle.
Matthew Feeney-Sproat Really?
John McAllister Yeah, I used to go there with Q all the time,
Brian Lynch all the time.
It's like right there on Sunset Boulevard.
Matthew Feeney-Sproat Speaking of Sunset, is there a real restaurant
called the Sunset Grill?
I heard an old song today from the 80s by Don Henley.
John McAllister Good song.
Matthew Feeney-Spro. It's a really good song.
It's a sad song.
But I'm like, is it a real place or was that something he just was making up?
I don't know.
I'm not aware.
I'm not familiar with it, so I'm not sure.
OK.
Yeah.
Have to look it up.
That's – you know what?
Let's cut that because if we're moving towards getting younger listeners, I should
not be bringing up songs from 1984 and artists.
Oh, is that the new thing now?
You got to – Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. I got some advice from 1984, an artist. Oh, is that the new thing now? You gotta appear to the...
Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. I got some advice from some listeners too.
Oh, all right.
I saw some as well, yeah.
I have some advice I could read and get your feedback Sunday. But that's the move,
is we're gonna try to chase some of the younger ears that are maybe out there.
You got this guy?
Yeah, I'm a kid.
According to Brian? Oh, well, he got a nice? Yeah, I'm a kid. According to Brian?
No, well, he got a nice young wife.
I mean, he knows how to do it.
Yeah, she was a listener, but he turned her off the pod.
She won't listen at the pod.
She won't listen to me at home.
She listens to you enough at home, I don't think she wants to listen to you on the pod.
Sunset Grill, temporarily closed, but it's at 7439 Sunset Boulevard in Los Angeles.
It was a real place.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Looks like it.
Looks like you have to take a ride out there with Frank.
I would like to visit the Sunset Girl just because of that song.
I heard that song in so long.
It's a good song.
Yeah.
Say it.
Till you get there.
Oh, what a waste.
I know the song's so sad.
So what advice did you get then?
So yeah, last week we were talking Sunday about –
Inform Sunday, fill them in.
How to attract a younger audience base because we feel like we're old so our audience must
be old.
How do you get in those kids, those – that younger demographic?
I don't know if we're old.
We're just different generation.
I mean –
That's a good attitude but we're old.
I don't want to say old. You think 80s when we're old, we're just different generation. I mean, I wonder if you think... That's a good attitude, but we're old. I don't want to say old, but...
You think eighties when you think old, right?
Because you used to think, when you were 30, you used to think 50 was old.
Yeah, it's just a different, I mean, we're from a different era.
And I've always said that before, like, you know, I've said that, like, how do you, like,
you just don't realize what you're talking about.
You think you're always talking about to people your age.
Like your listeners are always like, I feel that they're always like around our age, but they're
not, right? Isn't there a difference?
Some are.
Some are, but some aren't. Some are maybe a little bit younger. Is there older? I mean,
is there actually people that are older that you know that listen to? I mean, have you
taken a poll to where you know like what your demographics are?
I got some notifications that a lot of our older listeners are no longer with us.
Nursing homes.
Nursing homes. Yeah, so. that a lot of our older listeners are no longer with us. Oh no.
Some of our older ones.
Yeah.
Put on telling Steve Dave.
But yeah, so some of our older listeners are listening on the other side.
They're still listening.
It's a good place to listen.
But remember that guy, he worked at the – what is it?
He worked at the library and he used to put in all the CDs.
Yeah, yeah, but he sent us the, he actually sent us the CDs he burnt and put in the library.
Oh, really?
Because they never got checked out once.
Oh, man.
So they're in our showcase if you wanna check them out.
If you ever come down to the general store, you can see Taylor was the guy's name.
Taylor, that's right.
He was the librarian at a senior development, like a senior community, I guess, where people
live, but they had their own library.
And he loved the podcast so much that he compiled the greatest hits compilation.
So, he has like Tom, what was his name?
Taylor.
Taylor, so he's got like Taylor's like pick in the library.
Well, yeah, he just, I guess it was something, yeah, that he was recommend to some of the
residents in the community, in the retirement community, but unfortunately it never got
checked out once and there it is.
Gannum just brought it over to you.
That's actually pretty cool.
Yeah, it looks nice.
Yeah, unfortunately.
It always looks like one of those like, you know, like almost an FBI tape.
It's just like, it's crazy the size of this thing. It's
nuts. He did the artwork inside too.
Yeah, he did. He went all out, unfortunately.
Look, he's got like theft strips on here too. If you actually went out of the library
with this, it's going to go off. That's fucked up. That's crazy.
He really put way too much thought into it.
I think so. I mean that's crazy. You really put way too much thought in that. I think so. I mean that's nuts.
If somebody – if anybody had taken it, I would just be like, just keep it.
You're doing us a favor.
So yeah, we were talking about how to draw in the younger people.
Are you familiar with Hawk Tuah?
Are you asking me?
No.
No Hawk Tuah for you, huh?
Yeah, we're using her as our mentor right now. No. No. No. No. No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No. No. No. No. No. Sex sells. You want more followers? Get over your inhibitions.
What?
So we're turning to a porn podcast now?
You need more female content and guests.
The fan base is currently geared towards men and men only.
This needs to change exponentially?
Exponentially.
Exponentially. Exponentially.
Who just walked in? Hello?
Hey, we're ahead of questions for you guys.
Yeah.
Do you guys ever need good drinking water for your business?
No, we're good. Thank you.
Sure?
Yeah.
Yep.
You got it.
All right.
Thanks.
See you later.
Get him has a place under lock and key at all times, except for when we're fucking
recording.
Sunday didn't lock the door
That's my job. He's the fucking security guard now you know why you're not working here no more
All the fucking horses are running around Route 36
Looks like the animal farm out there
This needs to change ASAP. Brian and Q are here, but you are not
Okay, so we don't have any ambitions. Calling me out that... So how do you think that would go? Because I'm not chasing a
female guest, so it's going to be up to either you or Q to land this female guest to come
in.
Because we have so many male guests.
And then we're going to talk about sex.
Yeah. And they're going to be young, too.
And this is going to be something that you think I will flourish in?
Even if – like what on earth – like if you're listening to TSD and you think that's
the ticket that's going to make the show better?
You're not listening to TSD.
I don't know.
I really don't know what to tell you.
Well, you've had your daughters on, right?
I mean have you had your daughters on? I'm on commercials and stuff, but not on here. Maybe you should bring them on and see how that goes as a nice little test to see how
things go right off the bat.
They're young, right?
I mean, they're...
Yeah, there's no way on the planet that...
So they wouldn't want to come on?
No, there's no way on the planet I want them on.
Like this...
No.
Because also we're talking about like, you talking about you have to talk sexy and shit.
Oh, no, no, no.
That's right.
If you were to talk sexy.
I just thought as far as keeping the young, getting young thoughts out there.
Because that's what the hawk to a girl.
Okay, so let me, I'm sure everybody knows what I'm talking about except for some.
Remember, I'm old.
It was a viral video where a girl was interviewed, a street interview and some guy comes up and
he goes like, what's your finishing move sex wise?
You know?
And she goes, you got to give it the, the old Hawk to you.
You got to spit on that thing.
She goes, you know, so she's talking about giving a sloppy blow job that took off to
the point where now she has her own podcast called Talk To A. She has
deals in place.
She has a management team.
It's a whole thing.
She's very –
Dude, what the fuck?
Show it to him.
What?
So he could get fucking distracted while we're doing a podcast?
The table is rising.
What's going on here?
Go check the door.
Make sure it's still locked.
So she just started this podcast?
So she started a podcast and it's –
It's pretty successful.
It's pretty successful.
She's a great host. She's a great host. She's a great host. She's a door, make sure it's still locked. So she just started this podcast?
So she started a podcast and it's-
It's pretty successful.
It's pretty successful.
She has almost 200,000 subscribers.
That's actually dismissive of me to say it's pretty successful.
It's numbers dwarf TSD.
Well, that's-
Right, it blows us out of the water.
Let's see if we get to 600.
If she gets to 600?
Yeah, if she gets to 600.
I like the way, yeah, I like that.
I like that. You got to climb up the hill, man. I mean, I know you're on the other side of the hill a little bit. You know, you got to get to 600. If she gets to 600? Yeah, if she gets to 600. I like that. I like that.
You got to climb up the hill, man.
I know you're on the other side of the hill a little bit.
You got to get back up the slope again.
But when you get to 650 episodes, then you'll see where you're at then.
She's still got to prove if she's more than just the flavor of the week.
Yeah.
One shot. I saw several tweets or posts or whatever you call them now, that's sex, and people
were saying like, hey, I'm 17, hey, I'm 21.
We do have some younger people there, but I consulted with management and they told
me that the average age is somewhere in the mid-30s.
It's male in mid-30s is our average demographic.
It's about 20 years.
It's a lot.
Well, there are a lot of – I feel like we have a lot of females though.
Every time I'm looking at Twitter or when we go on the cruises, a lot of females come
up.
They're like, I love the show.
So, I don't think we're starving for 13 percenters.
No.
I don't know.
Yeah, I'm not sure. I think it has to do with – no, Rupp has done a study.
He's going to come on when BQ comes back.
Okay.
He talked to a lot of kids in his school about the talking points of things that they would
want to hear on a podcast and he's going to present them to us.
Oh, that's awesome.
He's done – That I want to hear on a podcast and he's going to present them to us. Oh, that's awesome. And he's done it.
That I want to hear.
And he did a student study and he has the feedback, the raw numbers, and we're going to
go over it when BQ is back on the podcast to see what he thinks if he agrees or if he thinks it's
even realistic that we could find any meat on that bone to talk about things
that kids want to hear when they're listening to a podcast.
And the thing is though, like the kids, do they want to hear it from other people like
their contemporaries or do they want to hear it from people like 30 years their senior?
Like listening to their father.
No.
This person emailed said it doesn't matter who's talking about it.
It's an audio thing.
Right.
So they're not like – it's not in their face that who's saying it is Haggard and
Gray if the voice sounds useful.
You're talking about me.
You're talking about me, aren't you?
Is she the one that made that library?
I wrote it out for my – But I don't know if it means as much in an audio presentation.
Right.
If we did YouTube, it would be a big difference.
I think that helps a lot though.
I think the video is pretty cool to have along with audio.
I don't know what it helps though in terms of the regular podcast though.
When we're just doing audio, all you're seeing is three people sitting at a table
though.
Yeah, people do watch though.
I know.
I mean you do see reactions.
You see facial reactions.
I just think – I mean obviously if you're – you just want to listen, put on some headphones,
land bad, drive or whatever, you can't – but I think it's pretty cool though.
It's like – you can see the reactions.
You can see like you laugh in or whatever you can't – but I think it's pretty cool though. It's like – you can see the reactions. You can see like you laugh in or whatever.
You see the facial reactions and I think that also helps out a little bit.
It's a struggle for us in my opinion to do that though because we never know when
we're recording.
Oh yeah.
I'm not saying –
A day or two before we do a TSD, it's like – OK, BQ is like, I can come tomorrow at
3.30. Okay, so now we got to get a crew – well, one of the guys who was our AV guys and get
them down here to record it, get it cut, get it up by the time it has to get up.
It's – and BQ has said he doesn't feel like being on camera.
He's on camera all the time.
He wants to be able to come down to shop.
Poor BQ.
I'm on camera all the time. He wants to be able to come down to shovel. Poor BQ. I'm on camera all the time. Give me a break.
Out there in LA eating pancakes without me?
I could see though not wanting to have to – because BQ has a certain look he has to
cultivate.
Right.
He doesn't want to come in all disheveled and –
Just got off the airfield. Yeah, like with his hair all messy and he can if he's just coming in and doing audio
though.
He doesn't have to go through the makeup and the hair.
It would be much easier if we had like dedicated cameras.
Like it was actually a studio where there were dedicated cameras and mics and sound
and like we just came in –
You didn't have to set them up all the time.
You didn't have to set them up.
Yeah, you sat down, you pressed a couple buttons, and then you're ready to go.
Oh, we could have that.
That wouldn't be, I don't think that'd be an issue.
It is a process though, but I just,
I don't know if people like that more,
or if people just, some people might just like audio,
some people might like both.
People do.
I, oh my God, I can't even tell you the amount of people.
Oh, just audio?
Or just like, because we did it,
we did the Let's All Go Toho in the movies.
Fuck this shit.
Well, you can't have just audio.
I don't like to watch videos,
I only want to listen to podcasts.
I get it. I get it. Oh my God. It just fucking derails all that effort you put into that
episode. Cut that cough out. I don't want to sound old. But there are a certain segment
who just want audio because they drive and listen.
I get it.
They don't have the time to sit down at the end of the night and watch videos.
They just want to be able to listen to it on their terms and not have to – and multitask
when they listen.
Well, that's a tough one to do it.
Anything that you're reviewing any kind of film.
You can't do it in.
Yeah, anything that you're reviewing some kind of film.
But I hear it all the time and sometimes I'm like, all right, let me back off doing video
then.
Then I get people who are like, no, I love the videos.
So I'm just like being pulled in all the directions.
I'm like, I don't know what the fuck to do.
It's very difficult.
I say it before.
It's just very, very hard.
You can't just like 100%.
I got 100% approval from everybody.
The thing I like about video too is that like if we were – if we had a regular schedule
where there was time to produce and stuff, it's like we could
pull up videos.
We could pull up pictures.
All the stuff we talk about, you can pull it up and look at it and then people can watch
along and see.
If we had the Hawk 2-O video, for example, we could pull it up and show Sunday and all
that stuff.
Well, Kim did want to pull it up.
I know.
He's in his own world over there.
But I guess he doesn't realize that to show it to Sunday just slows everything
down.
Slows it down.
To a screeching halt.
Total silence.
I got a wrap on the hands for condemning the pork from last week.
Tell – you got to inform Sunday about this.
Get his thoughts on this. Okay, Sunday.
So, yeah.
Oh, is he still muted?
No, he's allowed to talk whatever he wants. He just doesn't set up a mic for himself.
Well, fill him in.
Okay. So, I walked into the office last week and there was, I would say, a scent, an overwhelming
scent, a smell, even a stench some might say, of pulled pork, Dominican dish with rice.
When I walked into the office, it's not like, I mean, they have an air filter here, but
you would have to have 20 air filters, I think, in order to get the smell out of the air.
Walt was not happy about it.
Very unhappy, I would say.
Because the alternative is either bring in something that doesn't smell so bad or if
you're going to, just eat it over there.
Eat it at the restaurant.
Bloodhound over here.
I mean, look, I know he's a super smeller, but even when I walked in, I was like, wow.
It didn't drive me from the office, but I could understand somebody
not wanting to smell that.
It's like when you're on an airplane or something and somebody brings a
smelly fucking dish in there.
You know?
You eat sardines.
So I got an email saying, when it comes to eating certain foods in the office,
this should be addressed with Gidham personally.
It should, it doesn't need to be addressed on air.
Hey, I didn't fucking bring it up.
You did.
Yeah, I did.
Okay?
And they're fucking yelling at me about it.
I didn't bring it up.
I was not going to bring it up.
See, to me, I think it has entertainment value.
That's why I bring it up.
It was embarrassing for him.
Thus his silence.
And I'm just like –
Plus, he didn't have a …
I had told him many times before.
I'd said, that shit smells like dog food.
Don't fucking eat it.
Because it looks like dog food.
And he disregards it.
So he's eating fancy Cuban food?
Dominican food.
It smells like he fished it out of a dumpster, to be honest with you.
It doesn't look fancy in any way, shape or form.
That could be a possibility.
But apparently, this should be done not on Mike.
But in my defense, I didn't bring it up.
Yeah, you didn't bring it up.
And I wasn't going to bring it up.
But once it is brought up, it's like, of course you have to respond.
You're not going to be like, I'm not talking about that right now.
Like, what the fuck?
So it was the day they actually did the podcast that it smelled like that in the office though, correct?
Or was it just like …
Aaron Ross There was two seconds before.
Trevor Burrus Oh, okay.
All right.
Like you come in here, it smells like fucking pork sundae in here.
Aaron Ross Pork sundae?
Is that a dish?
Trevor Burrus No, sundae.
Like sundae today and just like I'm eating pork on sundae, pork sundae.
Aaron Ross Is that an old time phrase?
Or is it just something you just made up?
Trevor Burrus Just made up.
So now you got something.
I got a title for …
Pork Sunday?
For this week.
See, it's helpful.
I got a title for this week's episode.
There you go.
So do you … And then I got another one that said, you would be impossible to work for,
they said about me.
It seems like a lot of people under your guidance do quite fine.
I would think so.
Yeah.
I've saved quite a few jobs from termination in my history.
Not just here.
Not just here.
Yeah.
Multiple people have escaped the axe because of me.
Thanks to you.
Yep.
And I'm repaid with pork.
And the other ass clown never even said thank you.
Right.
I'll let you guess who that fucking is.
Go on, people.
Go on, Sherlock.
Send me a fucking email.
Hey, everyone.
Yeah.
So what would you do Sunday?
How would you appeal to the younger kids?
Now that all they want to hear about is sex, they're saying.
I don't know if they want to hear from somebody like an R age group at this juncture of our
lives.
Well, who has more experience though?
Yeah.
You want this, is this like Dr. Ruth fucking show now?
I mean it could have a segment maybe.
Somebody writes in their sex question like, hey, I'm having trouble in the bedroom.
Yeah.
And then you know what?
You'll get 20 or 30 people texting you saying, we don't like this fucking new format either.
Of course.
That's interesting that you went to the angle that it would be helping people with problems.
Right.
See, I thought when this person said that sex sells that they want to hear more about
that, I thought they were talking more about titillation.
And honestly, I thought they were talking about BQ.
They just want to hear BQ talk about sex.
Not us.
Not us.
That's definitely good.
I have sex many times. This person doesn't have PQ's email. Yeah, all right.
I get it.
I see right through it.
Damn.
We tried it.
Didn't we try a couple of sexy episodes?
It didn't go over too well.
And what, Sunday Chef?
No, remember when we were starting our stuff?
He was dressed as like a –
Like a pirate?
No, all the time.
He was dressed as a pirate.
He was dressed as a pirate.
He was dressed as a pirate.
He was dressed as a pirate.
He was dressed as a pirate.
He was dressed as a pirate.
He was dressed as a pirate.
He was dressed as a pirate.
He was dressed as a pirate. He was dressed as a pirate. He was dressed as a pirate. He was dressed as a pirate. He was dressed as a pirate. Then we tried a couple of sexy episodes, didn't go over too well. And what, Sunday's Jeff? No, remember when we were strutting our stuff?
He was dressed as like a…
Like a pirate?
No, no, no, that was Halloween one.
Remember the one where it was like the sexiest person?
Oh, wow.
Remember he was dressed as…
Yeah, Sunday's Stud.
But that's a Patreon episode.
I don't know if a lot of these people are on Patreon.
Well, they might see that.
They might say, don't do anything with sex anymore.
No, man.
That's a…
What was it?
It was…
Sunday's Stud.
Sunday's Stud, that's right.
Yeah, it's the same.
Sunday's Stud.
Sunday's Stud. Sunday's Stud. don't do anything with sex anymore. No, man.
That's – what was it?
It was –
Sunday Stud.
Sunday Stud, that's right.
Yeah, dressed as Caesar over there.
Where it was me and Sunday and Ming and –
No, no, I don't think Ming was there.
No, Ming wasn't there.
Ming wasn't here this last time?
No.
It was Troy.
Troy.
It was Tim, the record store clerk was there.
Miss Phi was a judge too, I think.
Miss Phi was a judge.
Right.
I don't know.
I think that everything is on the table including pork apparently.
Yeah.
It could still be on the table.
Apparently I'm in the show.
There you go.
There's the next Sunday Chef.
It will be a whole pork episode.
So it's Sunday.
You're at your job.
Your boss, Mr. C.
Whatever.
Yeah.
You know he doesn't fucking do well with pork.
You come strutting in with that big fucking grin.
Dopey as hell.
Trevor Burrus With Cuban barbecue sauce dripping out of
my mouth.
Peter Van Doren You start like chowing down on it, licking
your fingers and what do you think – do you think that's appropriate to do
knowing full well?
Well, we have a lunch room.
So right off the bat, it's not all part of one big room where basically this is.
You know what?
If he wants maybe eat it downstairs?
Outside?
Outside?
Well, obviously, he reheated it, put it in the microwave and that's it.
No, no, no.
It was already heated already.
Yeah, it's the right restaurant just across the street.
Why should this be also a place where you eat though?
Especially if you know and you know full well this is not like he can't come with any kind
of defense like, I didn't know, correct?
Correct? You can't honestly say you didn't know, right?
Sounds like you need a union there.
Yes or no?
Just shake yes or no?
You just said you didn't like the smell.
You never said don't eat it here.
Oh, come on.
Split hairs, no.
I mean, me personally knowing how his sniffer is, I would have probably, you know, not be
like, I know he's not going to like it.
Let's say Mr. Seeds.
Let's say the guy who signed your check is upset.
Well, I would never eat that stuff anyways in a place where…
Okay, but I know this is difficult for you.
Hypotheticals and imagination.
I got to…
I got to drop myself down a little bit.
No, you're just not good.
You're not…
It's not easy for you to get into hypotheticals.
You're very like, matter of fact, like this is the way it is and there is no daydreaming or no what ifs. But would you bring that in knowing full well that your
boss doesn't like it?
I would not do that. I would not.
I don't see a reason how there could be a defense of that.
I also don't understand the person who doesn't want to hear him get dressed down. It's like,
isn't that what like all those reality TV shows are about?
No, no, no, no.
The Kitchen Nightmares and all that stuff?
I don't think the younger generation likes that confrontation.
Oh, they don't?
No.
I think that's just a trigger.
So that's going to end too.
This is the last episode, I'm going to do that.
Okay.
Yeah, I'm not going to confront.
They will never know since they're not listening.
But it's good.
You have 200,000 listeners.
No more confronting and putting people on the spot.
This is it.
So I'm going to get it all out today.
That's why I called you out by not being able to do a lot of scenarios.
No, no, seriously. He'll get a bad take. You don't want to remember all out today. That's why I called you out by not being able to do a lot of scenarios.
No, no, I'm serious.
You don't want to remember all this stuff.
Oh, I will.
I got a long memory.
Until you get the text, oh, yeah, that's right.
I did come out and say that.
And I got to apologize because someone pointed out that I have used the word spaz before.
In a sexual manner too.
Really?
Yeah.
I said if you're screwing and you don't have a spazzy face on, you're not doing it
right.
I think that's funny.
But I did use the word spazzo because spaz will no longer be able to be used.
Really?
Yeah, Tom Brady's...
These are all things that I'm not aware of.
Well, it's good you're able to pop in now and again.
Not that it's a word I use a lot of times, I mean, but...
You've never been at work and just called one of the coworkers a spaz or anything?
Usually they're called something else.
They're not spaz.
But what did it mean to you, like, growing up?
What did the word spaz mean to you?
I would say it just like uncoordinated, like somebody like Meatball, the guy's name
was spaz and Meatballs, the one guy with the broken glass.
What year is that?
Again, we're trying to eradicate that.
We're in the 80s.
Trying to eradicate any talk of shit that didn't happen 10 months ago.
Well, you can't talk about anything new because there's nothing to talk about.
Oh yeah, we can't talk about anything that just happened.
You want to win a war?
Can we talk about Black Friday?
Can we talk about that?
I got that in the notes.
I would like to talk about Black Friday.
Why does it have to be Black?
Again. Black Friday at the Tell'em Steve Dave Town General Store, TSD Town General Store.
Annually, we open up at midnight, stay around until about 2 a.m. and then the next day.
That's on Thanksgiving night and then on Friday, we open at 11 again and stay here
until about 6.
People could come and meet your favorite TSD town residents.
Free pork dinner.
Come meet, get them.
Yeah, I'll be the one with pork on his breath.
He'll be the one from here.
He'll be here from 2 a.m. on.
Come meet Jimmy the hair guy.
He's going to be here all day Friday.
Frank Five is coming down.
I'll be here.
Bri is going to be here.
I don't know if BQ is going to be here.
Trevor Burrus Yeah.
Q dropped in last year.
Jimmy D. Kennedy Yeah.
He dropped in for I think a grand total of five minutes and then was in and out, popped
his head in, said, there's too many people here.
I'm out of here and was out the door.
Trevor Burrus That's some life, huh?
Wish I could do that in my work. Pop in my head for two minutes and get out the door. That's some life, huh? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I wish I could do that in my work.
Pop on my head for two minutes and get out of there.
So the hours are, are we open late Friday or Thursday night?
Thursday night at midnight, right?
Is that what we usually do or is it 11?
I can't remember.
That's usually at night.
Let's call it 11.
Call it 11.
Call it 11, we'll start and we'll stay here.
We'll see what time we get out of here,
but then on Friday, officially Black Friday, we will open at 11 a.m. and stay open until
6.
And Sunday or Saturday, 11 to 6 again, but I don't know who will be here on Saturday.
Usually it's –
It was very light last year.
Yeah, very, very light last Saturday.
Got some good stuff dropping.
Got a new hoodie and a new T-shirt. Oh, my wife is going to love you. Very, very light last Saturday. Got some good stuff dropping.
Got a new hoodie and a new t-shirt.
Oh, my wife is going to love you.
She's been looking for a new hoodie.
And we will be dropping those at the general store on Thanksgiving evening at 1130 and
as well as on our website at midnight on Thanksgiving.
Nice. And it's looking very, very good that the TSD town or the Tell them Steve Dave 2024
Christmas special will drop on Black Friday.
Right now, that's the plan.
It could change.
But right now, that's the plan and it is a very special episode. It is right now, I don't know how much I want to say or give away or
reveal, but Victor and his family, Dave 2024 Christmas episode is going
to be going to the Juarez family.
100% of it.
It's not going to be on Patreon because it's going to be only on Bandcamp and 100% every
penny is going to the Juarez family.
Every peso.
Every peso is going to the Juarez family and it's going to go towards a very great cause.
Every year since I can remember, we've tried to help people.
The only ones that seem to be …
The orphans?
Yeah, the god damn orphans, man.
We've helped orphans.
We've helped ants, you know, many times that we've helped ants and who needed a pick-me-up
around the holiday season and we have been more than happy to do it.
But this time it's somebody really close to home.
It's somebody like right in our backyard and I'm excited to help and I'm excited for people
to listen to it.
I think it's going to be a good one.
Big, big house.
Johnny Law is coming down.
He's coming down for it?
Coming down for the Christmas episode.
Frank Five is coming down for the Christmas episode.
Wow.
You can't keep Frank Five away.
No.
He wants to permanently live in TSD town.
Yeah. Yeah. He wants to sell the house
and come on down here. Come on down and live here. I think that's likely holding them back right now.
Sunday, you're going to be there, right? For the Christmas episode. Of course. You've been on every
one. It would be a fucking shitty Christmas to not have Sunday Jeff.
What's a Christmas without a Jew?
That's what I've always said.
Jimmy the Hair Guy is going to be on the Christmas special.
Who will be on?
I'll bet you he has a lot of Christmas memories.
Got a very cryptic text regarding Ming's involvement this year.
Really?
Yeah.
I asked him if he was available for the night we're recording it and this is the text I
got back.
This doesn't sound like Ming.
Somebody has his phone.
Not even, hey, anything.
I said, are you free?
The date we're going to do this, it's a benefit for the Juarez family.
Will let you know tomorrow.
I need to take care of one thing.
That's all he wrote. He never got back to me.
Tomorrow came and went, he never got back to me.
I don't know, man.
It's some stuff going on with Ming, I guess.
Hey, everybody's got shit going on.
You just don't know about it.
It's true, right?
Yeah, but it's…
I mean, everybody's got something going on, no matter who you are. It could be even Tom Brady's got shit going on. Do you hear it yourself fucking pregnant? Yeah, baby bump
No, not with Tom Brady's baby with her new man's baby wasn't just dating for two years
Turns out it's a different guy. Oh, I got off track there
Brady
TSD
2024 Christmas really hoping it will be ready to drop on Black Friday.
They haven't been dropping on Black Friday?
They haven't been dropping on Black Friday in the past because we've done a lot of
video which takes a lot more time.
There will be no video.
Christmas episodes last year.
Well, last year's was a very video heavy episode where we had the presents came in,
everybody got picked and everything.
No video this year, cause it's not going to be on Patreon.
It's exclusively on Bandcamp.
We're going to see that jump again.
Like the one I used to love seeing though, we would go to number one for the one day.
Yeah.
But it was always audio only.
It used to be.
Yeah, it used to be, but we're going back to basics.
I think even the GIFs or not the GIFs, but the merch, the new merch is completely back to basics. I think even the gifts, or not the gifts, but the merch,
the new merch is completely back to basics. It's a back to basics Christmas for Tell
them Steve Dave.
All right. Nothing wrong with that.
Oh, no. I think it's what this, well, actually, I'm not going to talk about what this nation
needs at all. Let's move on with the commercial.

We're going to hear about Sunday's vacation in Sin City.
Yeah.

Was it so raunchy and raw?
It's uh.
I kind of get the feeling it could call. It could travel anywhere. Yeah, or does it have to stay there? Was it so raunchy and raw? I try to get the feeling it could travel anywhere.
I love Sumson.
Let's see.
Black Friday, Cyber Monday is coming up and you're going to get an amazing deal you normally
wouldn't get.
Oh, fuck.
Can I interrupt this commercial?
Sure.
Go ahead.
Also, on Black Friday on the website, we're going to be selling the new merch and 40% Oh, fuck! Can I interrupt this commercial? Sure. Go ahead. It's more important.
Go ahead.
Also, on Black Friday, on the website, we're going to be selling the new merch and 40%
off all the old merch.
Really?
What is it?
See that?
40% off all the old merch starting midnight on Thursday, Thanksgiving until Monday, Cyber
Monday on midnight.
Cyber Monday on midnight. You know, you can get 40% off all the old merch,
excluding digital podcasts.
But anything else, if it's in stock, 40% off.
We got it, 40% off, all right.
Pretty good deal.
You can get a Baron Pop 40% off.
You can get a small fucking Disney Baron shirt.

Mug shot and extra small.
Extra small.
We got them.
All right.
It fits Teddy.
Let's see.
Oh my God.
Sorry.
You're back on Raycon.
Raycon, oh yeah.
Because Raycon, you get an amazing deal on premium audio every day of the year, but that
doesn't mean they're not having any sales for Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Far from it.
They're actually doubling down on their amazing value by offering the viewers,
the listeners, up to 30% site-wide. This is a Black Friday and Cyber Monday deal you'll
appreciate every day. Raycon's everyday earbuds, especially if you haven't checked out their latest
model, which includes plenty of new features that make them even more of a must-have for any
audio lover.
For example, they now feature 32-hour battery life and multipoint connectivity that you
pair with two devices at once.
Raycon's everyday earbuds also come with active noise cancellation.
Its feature is a must-have for those long flights to Vegas, but one that can be difficult
to find at an accessible price point until now.
That's because another thing, although Raycon's quality rivals some of the biggest names in
premium audio, Raycon started just half the prices the other guys.
So they're already an incredible deal.
Even before you factor in the Black Friday Cyber Monday offer of up to 30% off site wide,
Raycon's everyday earbuds are also available in a variety of vibrant colors so you don't get the
standard issue white or black. Earbuds sticking out of your ears. I prefer the black. I'm not
going to say anything bad about black. Now is a perfect time to scoop them up if you haven't
already and don't worry if you're not as impressed as we are. Raikon offers a 30-day happiness
guarantee so you really can't lose. It's time to save big for Black Friday and Cyber Monday.

How many days were you there?
Five.
Five days in a luxurious Sin City.
I was in a luxurious place.
So what was the itinerary?
I've been there multiple times.
So this time it was more of just like, we just relaxed, went to see a saw hockey game,
went and saw the Golden Knights. Saw the Golden Knights who they play. They play Calgary. So this time it was more of just like, we just relaxed, went to see a saw hockey game.
I went and saw the Golden Knights.
You saw the Golden Knights?
Who'd they play?
They played Calgary.
And of course I saw them win six nothing against them,
and then I come away,
I see what happened with the doubles.
Oh yeah.
When I tell you that, I mean it's beautiful.
How much are the tickets to the Vegas Knights?
Cheap, 35 bucks.
That's not bad.
I'm going to the double game tonight.
Guess how much the tickets are.
Free.
Nine fucking bucks. Nine dollars? Nine dollars. I'm going to the double game tonight. Guess how much the tickets are free nine fucking bucks
$9 dollars. We going with rough. He goes. Hey, I can get $9 ticket. You want to go? I was like sure Wow

If I told you the spectacle that they have there for their oh, I know about it. It's insane
Oh, yeah, I mean it it. It's insane. Oh, yeah.
I mean, it was like watching something from like...
Broadway?
Yeah, they have the burlesque girls up there.
They have this dragon that's...
Hey-o!
Hey, you want young viewers, right?
I saw a lot of burlesque girls in Sin City.
But they do...
It is.
It's this crazy show.
They still have the hawk come out and everything?
No, they got like a night that comes out
He's like it's almost you know how the devils put the images on ice
Well, they do that with like this kind of like beast or whatever
Yeah, nice like fighting them and then they have a dragon that blows all smoke and the eyes light up shit
The devils need we need we need we need a fucking baphomet to burst out of the wall a mechanical one
Abassov one with the head the size of the 1976 robot Kong
Off kill sturdy people
It just comes out every time a goal is scored the head comes out and smoke
Billows from the nostrils the mouse open the mouth opens in a gigantic venomous
Green tongue fucking flips out and a fucking massive devil scream. I would agree with you. Half a med scream.
That would be so dope.
I got to get fucking Lou Lambs on the... Oh, he's gone.
He's been gone for decades.
I got to get the new regime of the devils and talk to them.
But go ahead.
Sorry.
But it was good.
I mean, it was... We did that.
I did the Neon Museum, which shows all the older signs from all the casinos, the Bono
Casino. Oh, okay. It was pretty cool.
That sounds cool.
Yeah, it was good.
I went there last time.
There's a mob museum.
Mob?
Yeah, the Mob Museum.
Is there a mob history in this?
Oh yeah.
A big history.
Big time.
All right, all right.
I'm not that up to stuff like you guys on your gangsters.
Yeah, gangsters.
60s, 60s, and 70s Vegas.
Oh, Bugsy.
Bugsy, right?
Bugsy, yeah.
Okay, I saw that.
That was in Vegas?
Again, man, we got to stop – I got to stop doing – I'm just as guilty as everybody
bringing up –
We're talking about 76 con heads and shit.
Bugsy from 1989.
It's hard to do it.
It's like trying to only use your left hand to do everything.
Pinball museum.
Oh, I like that.
You would like this place.
That's cool.
Yeah.
Like all like original prices too, like 25 cents.
Any gambling?
A little bit.
We don't really gamble that much.
Nah.
Plus a couple hundred bucks.
I was there for five days.
What's your game of choice around there?
I usually play the slots.
I'll play like the blackjack too also because everything out there is like 15 or 20.
I mean the cheapest I saw was 50.
Most of it is $25 minimum hands, which is just like blink of an eye.
I mean I watch people just literally put out $1,000 out there and you know, I pass them
10 minutes later down the hall and it doesn't look like he's doing too well. But yeah, I mean we
just like – we just hopped around, had a bunch of good meals, went down to Fremont
Street and that's another shot.
Do you eat at the buffet?
No. There's not many of those really around.
They eradicated the buffets, huh?
They didn't eradicate them. They made them to the point where they're almost like – it's
ridiculous. They're almost like $90 now to go –
Yeah, very expensive. Yeah. The Caesar's one was insane. We were going to the point where they're almost like – it's ridiculous. They're almost like $90 now to go – Trevor Burrus Yeah, very expensive.
It's not like it used to be.
Pete Slauson The Caesar's one was insane.
We were going to do the Caesar's one last time I went.
It was like $90 to do the buffet and they only gave it like a two-hour window I guess
to eat because you probably have people like that.
Jared Larsen I know somebody who could get their $90 worth in an hour.
Pete Slauson That's why they only give you a two-hour
limit, you know?
Jared Larsen In an hour.
You don't even need to.
He'll fucking – he'll shut you down in an hour motherfucker
Oh, you want to charge me 90 pieces stuck to the back of the wall
You'll go back in the bathroom and fucking get another hour's worth out of you
Come back in just keep on shoveling
Right get him and shit on the walls
You'll know I was here an eight
Forget this face motherfucker
Okay
Did you fly out there oh, yeah, yeah, how was that? You're a good flyer? Oh yeah, I'm a good flyer.
How's your honey?
Is she okay flying or is she a nervous flyer?
She doesn't like takeoffs.
Who does?
I do.
You do?
Because I took a video of it.
I think anybody who likes takeoffs are a psychopath.
Yeah, take off some things which you've got to worry about the most.
I like to fly.
I was pilot.
I was born to fly.
You are a corny mother fucker. I really thought you said I was born to fly. I was pilot. So I mean … I was born to fly. I was just like, you are a corny motherfucker.
I really told you that I was born to fly.
Born to ride.
What else did I do?
Oh, we drank at this place.
And again, I'm using motherfucker a lot because I think that's what kids like.
They do like cursing a lot?
Yeah, especially in MFR, I've been told.
I heard that kids don't like the younger kids.
They're not into the sex stuff.
Yes.
Right?
But they don't have a problem with that.
They don't have a problem with that.
They don't have a problem with that.
They don't have a problem with that.
They don't have a problem with that.
They don't have a problem with that. They don't have a problem with that. They don't have a problem with that. They don't have a problem with that. especially MF or I've been told. I heard that kids don't like the younger kids.
They're not into the sex stuff.
Yes.
Right?
But they don't have a problem with blue language though.
Okay.
Fuck it.
I don't even think they like to get called blue language.
I think that even sounds old.
That's what I think about it.
Right?
But I don't know if anybody is referred to cursing as blue.
I don't think you know anything about what they want.
I would just continue on the format that you're on.
No, that only leads to death, Sunday.
Like Madonna, she's always reinventing herself.
Yeah, Bowie, he never fucking took the easy road.
He was always changing things up, a chameleon.
Okay.
All right, back to Vegas.
Oh, yeah.
Went to this bar.
One of the very first bars in Vegas, if it wasn't the first bar, it was called the
Atomic Cafe.
You drank?
Yeah, we went there and had to drink.
You had to drink?
Yeah, a couple of times.
You told me you only drink once a year.
I don't drink once a year.
Every now and then, if I go out to dinner, an ice dinner or whatever, I have a beer.
A beer.
Not like this fucking guy where you come in and there's fucking cans all over the floor
and you're just like he's just, you know, I mean socially.
Yeah, yeah, look.
It's peer pressure.
You're in Vegas.
You think you got to drink.
I understand.
You know, you paid.
What drugs did you do?
Let's see.
I did a speed ball.
No drugs.
But it was a pretty cool place because the history of it is – back in the day, they
called it the Tom and Cafe because they used to watch the bombs going off, which is pretty
cool.
Actually, the guy that was the bartender there, he was actually from New Jersey.
So we were talking to him.
I mean, the guy is from – I mean he lives in Vegas but he's just like – most people
maybe not – tell him Steve Davetown. It's like, where are you from buddy?
Oh, I lie. I lie whenever they ask me where I'm from. I never say where I'm from.
Trying to get my –
From Utah.
Trying to get my social security number. That's what my mom told me. Never give anybody where
you came from for up to no good.
He belongs in Nevada somebody. He belongs in Area 51. His brain should be fucking examined. I think that's what my mom told me. You never give anybody where you came from
It should be fucking for science donate your brain for science five days though, huh?
Yeah, it was a stretch. Did you know there was our day of travel on either end or what is that? Now we let's No, we left early. So we left Sunday at like seven o'clock.
Wait a minute, you left Sunday so you didn't go to work on Sunday?
Nope.
Took Sunday off.
Oh, wow.
I'm glad one Sunday…
What the manager had to say about that.
What the powers be say about that?
I got off. But yeah, we got there. but I'm saying there's three hour difference so you get
there early so you get to eat breakfast twice.
You eat breakfast here and you eat breakfast there.
Wow, two breakfasts.
What a fuck a wild man.
That's a king.
That's what I want.
I got to get to Sin City.
Two fucking breakfasts.
By the time you get to Sin City, it will be next week with your fucking bus.
The only thing I know is they're getting ready to do another F1 race out there.
So they blocked all of the Blasio Fountains.
They have these grandstands all over Vegas.
Trevor Burrus What's F1?
David Morgan It's a race.
It's like you ever see those like almost like those Indy kind of car looks.
Trevor Burrus Oh, it's a car race.
Oh, I thought it was like a marathon or something.
David Morgan No.
So they close – I guess they close Vegas for how many days the race is.
Then it goes like down Las Vegas Boulevard and then it goes around or whatever.
But they have all these – and it's insane.
How do you put this stuff up and then take it down?
I mean it's like huge.
I mean these grandstands are like – it looks like you took a section of MetLife and just
put it on the street.
And then they put it up and they take it down within – this is the second race this year
already.
They had one already this year.
But I mean being a tourist, like if you were a tourist and you were just going to Vegas
for the first time and you weren't able to see a lot of this stuff, I'd be pretty
pissed.
But it brings a lot of money into the town I guess.
So –
And did not go to the Sphere, right?
Did not go?
I didn't go to the sphere.
The sphere was $100 to go in for that – it's almost like soaring.
You ever been to – it's kind of like I guess would be like that.
Did you see the outside of it?
As you get closer to it, you really can't see anything.
You really have to be from a distance.
You really can't see – it's almost to the point where you can see through it.
It almost looks like
– it's almost like a mesh on the outside and then you could actually see a bit of the
dome, the structure inside as you get closer. We went up to it but I'm saying –
I thought the Eagles were there doing a residency.
For a little bit. They weren't there when I was there. I mean Santana is there but he
wasn't playing at the sphere. He's the only person that I think that I would want
to see.
We didn't get a chance to see a show out there.
We wanted to go see Penn and Teller again, but the tickets were gone.
So, but it's still sell out.
Um, it was late.
It was just like, we didn't feel by the time we, we could have still got tickets,
but by the time if you take that, you know, the transportation over there, it
would have been cutting it close.
You know, but, uh, do you need to go back or do you think you've had your fill of it?
I don't need to go back now for a while.
I mean, the only reason I went is I got a really good deal in the room.
I mean, I got a comp for five days, so it was beautiful.
Oh, you got a free room for five days?
Yeah.
Oh, that's excellent.
Oh, yeah.
Well, now you know.
Stayed at the Paris.
That's the way you fly.
That's the way you travel, free.
Yeah.
Stayed at the Paris.
The Paris. It felt like Q going out there.
Did you?
You know, it was really nice though.
We had a nice time.
I'm sorry, but Q would have had three breakfasts.
Well, not everybody can be Q. That's all right.
Two's enough for me.
It was nice.
What else did I do out there?
Nothing unusual happened though?
No.
No.
We went to – we skipped all the different casinos.
We went to the Mandalay Bay and I didn't realize they changed the floors for where
the shooting was.
It goes from – the floor that it happened on was the 30 30 something floor. I think it was maybe 37 or whatever.
Snooch! Snooch!
Oh!
We're on that shit. Fuck, we put the youth to shame. No fucking 20 year old is going
to hop on that quicker than that.
Nobody knows what the fuck you're talking about.
Oh, they know.
But they changed the floors into the 50s.
It's weird.
I wonder why 50s.
Aaron Ross Powell So you're saying there's floors missing now?
They just skip them?
Deirdre McCloskey They're not missing.
They re-numbered the floors.
It goes like one to something and then 20 to whatever and then it would be 30 to whatever
and then it's in the 50s now.
Aaron Ross Powell So there's no 40s.
Deirdre McCloskey No.
What I'm saying is the – I don't think it's that high anyways.
I think it only goes up.
It was like the last section of floors, but all of a sudden it jumps from like
the thirties and then it'll go from 50.
I think it's either 50 or six.
Right.
But I'm saying there's no forties anyways.
It doesn't exist on the building.
Okay.
This is sounding so similar to the fucking mini golf story.
I think there's only, there was only 39 or 40 floors at all in Mandalay Bay.
But I'm saying they re-numbered the floors in the 50s.
They should be in the 40s though.
No they should be in the 30s like they're supposed to be.
But they didn't – whatever reason, they changed the floor numbers to 50s which I don't
understand why the 50s. And it was just weird.
Did you ask anybody?
No. I'm not going to. I'm sure that's a touchy subject.
That's not my business.
That's fucking chatty bartender.
Yeah. It's like, hey, I want a drink. Where's my room? I'm like a 38.
Jersey Jeff, we don't talk about that.
They just opened it up.
What's your social security number?
Here's a pass for a fourth breakfast. Keep your mouth shut.
Stop asking questions.
Can I have a fifth one so I can be cute even more?
But it's – I'm sure it was you.
I wanted to go up there, but …
That's where you wanted to go?
That's not why I went there.
I know, but you'd want to go up to the floor where we're mass shooting at?
I would just think it's like eerie just to be up there and just like – well, there's
people on the floor.
The floor is open. It's not like it's closed off.
I just can't, wow. To me, that's surprising that like if all there is to do in Vegas,
you're like, let's go to one of the-
Well, I can. This is my fourth time there. So I've done a lot of stuff. So it's not like,
like, what would you do? Oh, I want to watch TV.
No, I wouldn't I wanna watch TV.
No, I wouldn't wanna watch TV, but yeah.
You know where I eat a lot?
Where? Denny's.
That's one place you don't have to worry about
Denny's ever going out of business.
This was the busiest fucking Denny's
I've ever seen in my life.
When I tell you I had to wait an hour to get into Denny's.
And there's multiple.
The reason I think they do so well
is because of the prices. Yeah.
Because …
You know what?
I don't know if anybody knows this but – I don't know if it's going to knock anybody
for a loop but I'm not really a Denny's guy anymore.
It's been a long time since I …
Dude, I'm not for a loop.
Yeah.
I – last – it's been years since I've been in a Denny's.
He's telling me around.
He's got to drive like …
Oh, is that it?
No.
He's got to drive an hour and a half to go to a Denny's. The quality of the dish that I love there became so poor that I decided I just could
not go back there anymore.
Or did it smell like pork when you walked in?
It was grilled chicken and it was just so bad.
Piece of the sack?
Yeah, definitely.
Sack chicken.
I haven't gone back in so long.
I know people think that I'm a Denny's guy, but'm really not it's it's Friendly's and Red Robin and Red Robin
oh isn't easy to find friendlies isn't easy I was there last night it took it
was a two-hour fucking endeavor but we got to tell you about that. It's like, oh, this town got a Friendly? What?
Denny's?
What?
Red Robin?
Yeah, we got a Red Robin.
It's one hour there and it's one hour back of traveling.
Too much.
Yeah.
That's a long stretch.
Your daughter go with you?
Yeah.
She wanted to go.
That's why we went.
Have you ever been to Vegas?
I know you've been.
I've been to Vegas once.
We drove through it with me and Brian.
The only thing I remember about it was I went to a massive, what's that sporting
goods store, Fish and Ale or Fish and Bass or?
Oh, Bass Pro.
No, I don't know.
It's a massive sporting goods store.
There's Cabela's and then Bass Pro shops.
It has a pool in it with fish in it.
Like this massive.
It's probably either Bass Pro shops or Cabela's.
Yeah, I was not a gambler back then when we did it and I remember we had an hour in Vegas
and we separated.
It was like 11 o'clock in the morning and I remember sitting at a table and LeBron James
signed with the Miami Heat.
That's how long ago it was.
It was – that was the big news on the TV.
Is that too old to talk about right now?
Should I be mentioning that?
The king is still relevant, right?
He's still playing.
He's still playing, right?
So I'm not talking about a retired player.
Not like I'm talking about King Kong's robotic head from 76.
Yeah, LeBron.
Yeah, LeBron's a name people can't forget.
It's unavoidable.
You're going to bring up shit that's just old.
You just can't.
It's just part of who you are.
No, I want to get a zap caller every time I say something that's old.
That's like pre-90.
Yeah, I want someone to zap me. Not get him because something that's old. That's like pre-90.
Yeah, I want someone to zap me.
Not get him, because I know I'll be fucking dead.
Yeah, exactly. I'll have no fucking hair.
By the time the end of the show is...
Yeah, we had a good time though, now.
That's good. You need that.
Now, were you ready to refresh?
Where you're like, I can't wait to get back home and get back to the grind.
I should have never got off the plane.
I should have just fucking stowed away underneath the aircraft
someplace and taken me to wherever I want.
You don't get homesick?
I'm like, man, I can't wait to get back.
No, I don't get homesick at all.
Really?
I don't.
It's just nice just like being able to,
not being forced to wake up to go to work
and just going when you want.
Kind of like your job.
That's what I'm looking for.
You guys hiring? I just... when you want, kind of like your job. And that's, you know, that's what I'm looking for.
I want a responsible guy to come in.
You don't want your place to smell like fucking pork all the time.
Yeah. Would you eat only the most inoffensive lunches?
I wouldn't even eat here.
No, that's, that's really all you need.
That's what I'm looking for.
We'll eat lunch out of office.
When can you start?
And don't drain any appendages.
What?
He's constantly fucking taking a needle.
I thought you were talking about draining something else.
Seeing him on the couch.
It's like a walking cyst.
You have to drain a cyst or a lump, you know, I would prefer you do that, you know
Maybe some on your own time. Yeah, take a break take 15. I'll be back in your car
Compacters all so yellow in the car drain your system the car
Fucking yellow goo dripping down the glass
Ridiculous. Yeah, we had a good time though. It was nice out there.
Good to hear. You deserve it. No one works harder than you do.
He is a hard worker, this guy. Let's see here. I've been told from the powers that be that this
is the last time this year we're going to have four ads in one episode. I was happy to hear that.
Was that normally?
Usually it's supposed to be two, but for some reason,
recently, I guess people have been buying stuff.
Well, so we got more and more ads.
Yeah.
So obviously you got a lot of people buying stuff and listening.
It's a good thing.
Do they pay for the ads?
Oh yeah.
Really good.
Yeah.
It's been a while.
Really?
Yeah.
All right.
I'll remind her.
Well, you're cutting them off with 40%.
She mentioned it just the other day, so I'll have to ask her.
Uh, we should be having some money coming to us, man.
Good on her about that.

I was looking at a chart of men's butts and I'm sorry to say that I just wanted to see
what kind my butt was.
It's one of the least desired ones.
It's called the flat butt.
Oh really?
You got no ass.
There's no curvature to it. There's no curvature at all. It's called the flat butt. Oh, really? You got no ass. There's no like – No curvature to it?
There's no curvature at all. It's like a ruler.
Oh, man. That's a shitty hand to be dealt.
I don't think – and I don't think at this stage in my life I don't think there's
any reason to even explore –
Well, what about those Kim Kardashian pants?
Yeah, I don't think – I think it would be a total waste of too much money and what
for? But it was disheartening to look too much money and what for, but it was
disheartening to look at the chart and see.
But you know, there's still underwear for it though.
There still is underwear, you know who sells them?

Adam and Eve wasn't it, nope.
So we do, there's a lot of sex on here already.
You got a lot of people investing some time.

So I think Jeff, does blue chew work?

where their mouth is by giving you a month for free.
Is the only time to take a blue chew when you're going to have sex though?

Do you think of any other time or is it strictly only?
Maybe if you're going to the beach and you want to look plumped up, you know, like you
got your tight shorts on.
Too many blue shoes.
You know, so you get nice full and...
If you've got a lot of boxes to move, it's not a good time to...
No, probably not.
I thought maybe you get a little extra giddy up.
Public speech.
It doesn't give you a little extra giddy up, but you got to move a lot of shit.
I don't think so.
I need a coat hanger.
I think it's mostly good for one thing.

He's going nuts.
As soon as he talked about Bluetooth, he's –
You got to hit the CH in that Sunday.
Didn't sound like you said blue chew.
Blue chew?
That's my own brand.
I don't need any of that.
Come on, get some blue chew.
Sunday, I know you've got a cat.
I just got a new kitten yesterday.
Aww.
What's the name?
Sassy.
Sassy.
Who named it?
Sage.
Sage thinks that she's Sassy.
So she figured the kinship name Sassy too.
We got it at a – over in Red Bank at Fins and Feathers.
This is a – it's a pet store.
Yeah.
It's been there for years.
Forever.
It smells like – it's unbelievable. Have you ever been it's been there for years. Forever. It smells like it's unbelievable.
Have you ever been in there?
I have been in there, but when you walk in there, you have an expectation.
You cannot expect it to not smell like a pet store.
To not smell like a pet store.
Yeah, I guess you're right.
You can't.
I mean, an office?
Yeah.
It doesn't smell like a pet store.
It doesn't smell like dog food.
Like a Cuban restaurant?
A pet store? Come on. Yeah, I guess you got to smell like shit. You don't want to smell like dog food. Like a Cuban restaurant?
A pet store?
Come on.
Yeah, I guess you got to get a tool.
You got to give them a break if it smells like a pet store.
Yeah.
Yeah, you're right.
But they had a deal with the local shelter, so they were offloading these kittens that
they got from the shelter because I guess the shelter has been going through some upheaval
and they also had a fire recently.
Only one cat died though out of the whole place.
It was like a dryer caught on fire and out of the whole place only one cat died, which
was unfortunate for the cat but fortunate for the rest of the animals.
He said that this is the last of the litter just like Norm, just like the dog.
It was the last of the litter.
Mary Beth and Sage saw the cat and that was it. That's all she wrote? That's all she wrote. The other cat is cool. I like the dog. It was the last of the litter. Mary Beth and Sage saw the cat and that was it.
So that's all she wrote.
That's all she wrote.
The other cat is cool.
I like the other cat.
Two other cats, yeah.
One that never comes out.
Three cats and a dog.
That's my cat.
But I'm saying the one that always like it gets mad at you if you stop petting it.
The black one.
Yeah, it's giving you shits.
I didn't tell you to stop motherfucker.
But I was like – so we bring her home and it's weird because – okay, so you're
in it.
She's in a cage at the store and they take her out and they put her in a cardboard box,
you know, to carry her in like one of those little carriers.
Like to go Dunkin' Donuts coffee.
Yeah, pretty much.
Yeah, pretty much.
We get her home.
She meets Norm.
She's hissing.
She meets Salem. she's hissing, she meets Salem, she's hissing and then within,
yeah, that little like, and then within I would say two hours, she's playing with the
dog, she's lying on the bed with the cat, she's messing around, she's playing and then
she takes a nap, just like lies on the bed and takes a nap.
And I'm like, cats have some balls because if somebody came and plucked me out of my
house, like blindfolded me, brought me to another house, put me with people that I thought
might be aggressive and are way bigger than me, I don't think the first thing I'd think
to do is take a nap.
How old's the kitten?
It was born on September 1st, so a little bit better than about two months in a week or so.
Yeah, cats, I don't know, some cats are dappled, some cats I guess just don't want, you know,
my cat's weird too. My cat just, she'll come out when I'm in the room and she'll never,
like I leave the door open, she will never ever cross the threshold of that door. It's like,
it's like there's an invisible shield.
It's a front door you mean?
No. She was staying in my daughter's room. She always goes to my daughter's room. She hangs out
under the bed. But if I go in there, the cat will come out. She wants to get pet. She wants
attention or whatever. I try. I try putting some toys out there and trying to get her.
She'll just go right to the edge and she'll turn around and she's like – she's very like skittish. Like as soon as she hears
like any kind of sudden little noise, she'll just dart right under the – I mean she's
the runt of the litter too. She's really small. She still looks like a kitten. She's
not going to grow any bigger. But I try and then I bring her out in the living room and
then she does like this little scurry walk like the – all the way around and she'll
walk like – almost like a mouse.
She'll stay on the corner.
She stays like she won't walk in the middle of the room.
It's fucking weird.
Never had a cat like that.
But she's – I mean she's a good cat.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean –
Yeah.
I was hesitant with this cat because I was like – I told Mary Beth, I was like, but
our pet balance seems perfect right now.
Like –
What?
Now you got four animals?
Four animals, yeah. Three cats. Well, the two cats are like – they're 10 perfect right now. Now you got four animals? Four animals, yeah.
Three cats.
Well, the two cats are like – they're 10 years old now.
So they're well adjusted and the dog is like – he's –
He's like my cat.
I could not – I couldn't ask for a better dog.
He's so well behaved.
We can put him outside.
He doesn't like run off the property or anything.
He's just a good dog.
He's smart.
He knows a bunch of tricks and stuff.
Does he come out now too?
Is he still –
Oh, no.
Well, he's still timid around strangers.
We take him to my parents' house sometimes and he loves Pam and Edgar.
He loves my sister.
But then we brought him over for Halloween the other day and my niece is there and a
couple other people that he's not familiar with. So he gets very timid around like he wouldn't get out
of the car because he saw a scarecrow in Pam's yard for Halloween.
So not a good guard dog is what you're saying.
No, no, you don't want him for a guard dog. He's not that guy. I was wondering, well, I saw this
picture and I know that you want to live forever. That's one of your-
Who doesn't. Yeah, I mean. I saw this picture and I know that you want to live forever. That's one of your –
Who doesn't.
Yeah, I mean –
Oh, come on.
Okay.
Fuck it.
I don't know what to say.
I had a fucking article and I was going to show it to you.
It's a woman lives to 107 despite a four inch horn growing out of her head.
And I don't know if it's my iPad. Oh wait, here we go, here we go.
So you might be in good shape. You got one growing out of your elbow.
So I'm like, is it worth it? Would you rather die at 100 or 107 if that's how old you look
and you got a horn growing out of your head? Oh my God.
That's a legitimate horn. That looks like a horn growing out of your head. Oh my God. That's a legitimate horn.
That looks like a horn like from a billy goat.
Yeah.
What?
At this, at that point though, it doesn't matter.
Doesn't matter.
107?
Am I still with it?
At what point does it matter that horns growing out of your head like age wise?
Because I definitely like let things go like
You're like I'm not gonna get Botox for my wrinkles around my eyes
I'm not gonna do any of that shit, but if a horn started
You'd be like I'm going it's like
Now it's now it's starting to grow branches
You look like a fucking tree. I think if I think
to grow branches. You look like a fucking tree. I think if, I think late sixties horn starts, I don't think, I don't think society expects
you to do anything about it. I think, I think society-
Late sixties, huh?
Yeah. I think society accepts that you don't have to do anything about it. That's your
call and Darrell, everybody's okay with it.
I disagree. I disagree. I think seeing a poor person with a horn in public, I'd be like,
what the fuck?
Go home.
Get out of here.
Why?
What's the big deal though?
Well, it's really unsightly.
It's just weird.
But how?
I don't know what it is.
She's probably just a bone.
She's a 107-year- old woman from China named Chen.
Maybe that's the issue that he has to take care of.
Grandma Chen, he could confirm if he's going to be at the Christmas episode.
Grandma Chen.
She said that, well, they said that she's an unexpected star on the Chinese version
of TikTok.
Well, that's what I was going to say.
You could blow up with your horn.
You know how many horny jokes you can make?
Oh, tons.
Bluechew could hire you.
Oh my God.
Adam and Eve, are you horny?
The podcast would triple its listenership.
If only one of us could grow a horn.
One of us had a horn growing out of their forehead. Okay. It's triple, it's listenership. If only one of us could grow a horn. One of us had a horn growing out of their forehead.
Okay, it's called a-
And didn't back off it and just embraced it.
Right.
I hope it's not me.
I hope it's Q. Q-Star can't keep shining this brightly.
He needs a horn.
Defy me.
Doctors identified the growth as a cutaneous horn often associated with prolonged sun exposure
while generally benign.
Experts advise monitoring such growths due to a slight risk of malignancy.
Her age though, does it matter?
It doesn't, man.
I just wonder.
At 107 definitely you're like, doesn't matter.
But at what age, just at what age am I going to stop caring about my physical appearance
altogether?
It would appear 56.
I swear it's not.
Tell them, Steve.
Steve.
I'm going to go to the bathroom.
I'm going to go to the bathroom.
I'm going to go to the bathroom.
I'm going to go to the bathroom.
I'm going to go to the bathroom.
