Hey everybody, this is Chuck Staten.
You may know me from directing dozens and dozens of videos with Tell'em Steve Dave
over the years or guesting on the show several times.
I'm here to tell you about my podcast, Fun Bearable, and our live show next Sunday, June
1st.
It's going to be at the Comedy Connection in East Providence, Rhode Island.
It's called Narragansett Beer's Fun Bearable Summer Break.
When we do a live podcast, it's really more than just
a podcast. There's a lot of segments, a lot of bits, some improvs and pranks. It's going
to be a very weird but very fun time. You can get tickets at funbearablepod.com or follow
us at funbearablepod on any social media platform. Some TESD town members will be there including
Johnny Law, Jimmy the Hair Guy, and who knows
who else.
So that's next Sunday, June 1st at the Comedy Connection in East Providence, Rhode Island
for Narragansett Beer's fun-bearable summer break.
Hope to see you there. Oh, you're the best. No, don't get it. Thanks.
You're acting like you just if you had a freezer freezer and you had a body in it.
No, who says that?
I cannot stand wind chimes.
Tell them Steve, Dave. Hello and welcome to this week's edition of Tell them Steve Dave.
Q's in the house.
Walt's in the house.
We were just talking about something that I feel like Walt is being fiscally irresponsible
of Tell them Steve Dave funds.
Really?
Wow.
Sandbagging.
Yeah.
He's paying rent.
We were just talking about the bagel store. Yeah, there's a bagel store here.
And I'm looking at this, I'm looking at this
thing that, that Q pulled up.
Now we have a bagel store in the Plaza and just
recently there was a warrant of removal, right?
Which is an eviction notice.
And somehow, how did, I wish you had a mic,
cause I want to know how you find this shit.
Mrs.
Five helps you?
Mrs. Five is on the case of the bagel shop?
No, she went to go get food for Frank yesterday.
She went to go get food for Frank and so the warrant.
Oh. No, but I'm wondering how you get these pages that show all the …
Oh, it's public records.
Oh, is it?
Yeah.
Now, I want to know because you look at this bagel store. Now, if that rent, it's a storefront,
if it was $5,000. It's less.
And it wasn't.
Oh, is it less?
Yeah, it's 4,500.
4,500.
You're still talking about like 20 months without paying rent.
How do you get that far along without doing it?
Wow, because they owe how much here?
93K.
Jesus Christ.
93,000. 3,500 rent, store, and the- Oh, how much here? 93K. Jesus Christ.
93,000.
4,500 rent, soar, and the...
That's gotta be someone with like a problem, right?
That's just not paying the rent?
Like just gambling?
Yeah, the problem is, I think the problem is they're not making enough money.
I mean, look...
They gotta prioritize, okay, well, I gotta pay my own rent on my own house, my own mortgage.
What are these guys doing?
I know these guys can't get me out.
The law will, will keep me safe for at least two years as I, you know, as I put
roadblocks for them to stop me from, you know, from ousting me.
Yeah.
I would be so ashamed.
Like they come to pick up the rent and I'm like, nah.
And then the next month I'm like, nah.
I'm telling you, it is, it is a problem in the airport plaza that many people aren't paying rent.
It is shocking. I think you would be stunned if-
Really?
Yeah. I think we're the only people paying rent on time.
And I'm surprised we're not treated better for that matter too, because
I get some dirty looks sometimes too.
That's insane. From who?
Just from the powers that be, the regime.
Yeah, what'd you do?
I mean, I don't know.
Or is it a guilt by association?
Maybe it's get them that they're crazy about.
If I had to guess.
Yeah.
It wouldn't be Walt.
Yeah.
So yeah, I was shocked.
I mean, when I go down there and I'm the only person paying rent, my hiney should be so
shiny from all the kisses and like, oh, you are the best tenant. No, don't get on it.
Oh, thanks.
Maybe we could like use this to move into like, you know, a place with a window or something
like that, you know?
I told you guys. Yeah.
But in our airport plaza. Oh, well. You know a place with a window or something like that, you know, I told you guys yeah, but you know Airport Plaza
Oh, like we could be like look we pay rent, you know, we're so you know, we're good windows mean going downstairs
Storefront then you don't like that. Well, it's also four times four times the rent and
What's the camp fee the camp fee is there's cameras set up and
It's like only fans.
I mean, they should.
They're 93,000 in debt.
Oh, and that's a thousand a month.
Huh?
Oh, that's okay.
Fucking cool.
Grand a month.
I was going to say it snowed like once or twice.
So just cause we're on the second floor, we don't have to pay on that.
That's the sweet part.
That's the sweet part.
Yeah.
Okay.
No windows, but you know what we save how much a month in?
So that's $12,000 in savings.
You know, I'll sit and smell, get them all day.
I don't give a fuck.
I mean, it's a tax write off.
It's not even like,
it smells like iodine now. So it's cool. Yeah, I noticed you got orange patches all over you.
What are we doing?
You petting yourself?
We should have given him a mic.
There's a lot of attention going to get his way early on.
That's good attention.
He's been on the ball lately.
Has he?
Yeah, he's been really, really good.
Oh, I love to hear this.
Yeah, it's been really good. He's been, like ball lately. Has he? Yeah, he's been really, really good. Oh, I love to hear this. Yeah, he's been really good.
He's been like, it is so refreshing.
It's not backhanded.
No, it's not backhanded.
It's just, it is so refreshing.
It is such a breath of wonderful daisies to be like, hey, that thing I talked about, I
needed to get done.
He had done it already.
Yeah.
Wow. That's not common. So when it happens, it's like,
whew, I was floating. I floated home. I didn't even need my fucking jeep.
Wow.
I just floated home because I was on cloud nine. So proud of my man.
Yeah. All right, dude. The bar is that low. That's great.
He did something.
That was good though. That's great.
It was good though.
Oh good. Nobody did it well though.
I'm happy bro.
You did them? Congratulations.
He's definitely on the upswing.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Definitely on the upswing.
New era of getting them.
The things are like quality craftsmanship.
Right.
Quality effort.
So yeah. So yeah. I noticed like the table's not covered in junk that we don't use and like some, those
cables are actually coiled up rather than just thrown in the corner.
A lot of improvements are in there.
Yeah, it's been a couple of weeks.
He got his ass in gear and it's like, yeah, he deserves it.
He's all shy and embarrassed now.
He doesn't have a speech prepared.
It's good to see you guys.
I miss you guys.
Oh, yeah.
It's been a while.
I missed last week.
Feels like more.
I was there a week before, but then I missed a week before that.
So it's, I've been part-timing it lately.
Yeah.
Are you allowed to talk about what you did?
I don't know.
Cause I didn't mention it.
I said, I wasn't sure.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I signed a bunch of NDAs and I don't know how.
Yeah.
But I mean, I'm sure people, I mean, I was in England and I could say it was a
Pinewood studios, people can figure it out from there, but pretty fucking exciting.
Dr. Who?
Oh, dude. I saw they have. So Pinewood Studios, for those who don't know, is like a legendary,
it's where they shot Star Wars, all the James Bond stuffs. And they are in Goldfinger. That
street that he races down is there and it says Goldfinger Way and it's all made up to
look like they have a 007 stage. It's very impressive.
They're shooting Star Wars and shooting Avengers on there.
Really?
And I got to look at the Avengers set.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I can't say anything.
NDA, huh?
NDA.
Yeah.
I got to look at the Avengers set.
By the way, it was just, they were building it.
Just looked like plywood.
When has TSD Town had to abide by NDAs though?
When you want to be in more stuff.
We're like.
When you're in NDA, you go ahead and you.
We got diplomatic immunity in TSD Town, I thought, for NDAs.
Yeah, only in TSD Town.
It was huge.
I was on a set like I've never seen before in my life.
Hundreds of people, hundreds of extras. It was wild. But it was pretty crazy. But I was in England for six
days. Brian Lynch was there.
Oh, was he?
Yeah. He's there as you know.
Oh, so I know what this project is then.
Well, no. His wife works on Star Wars.
That's what I thought it was.
He just happens to be living there for a little bit and we just were able to hang out for
a couple of days, which is kind of cool. Oh, cool. But the coolest thing that happened was I had like two days to completely bond myself,
which is weird.
And they put me up in this old building called Oakley Court or Oakley Manor.
And I'm looking at the fucking building.
Yeah, pull up pictures.
And I'm like, I know this fucking building from somewhere.
So I say to the guy, I'm like-
Jesus.
It looks like a goddamn castle.
I mean, it looks like a castle.
I'm like, and see that building to the right there?
Go to the right, get them.
All the way to the right, now down.
Your other right.
Sorry, your left.
I'm looking at the opposite of you.
See those windows to the left of that picture?
That's the hotel I was in.
They don't put you up in that big building.
Okay.
But it's right on the Thames River.
When I say right, I mean the river goes right next it. And it's a quiet little bend in the river and
shit like that. Anyway, I'm looking at the fucking thing and I'm like, I know this from
somewhere I know. So I asked the guy, I was like, this has been in movies, right? And
then he says, well, it's in a bunch of the old hammer films, hammer, they used it for
it. But he goes, the big one that you know, and it from is Rocky Horror Picture Show.
He goes, that's
Frankenstein's Castle. That's where it is. Yeah. And I was like, fuck, I used to love
Rocky Horror Picture Show.
You don't love it anymore?
Well, I haven't watched it in so long. Last time I saw it was like, because I was into
this girl, right?
It's always a girl.
Always a girl in high school. And she used to do Rocky Horror at the Amboy Twin on Staten
Island. And I didn't know anything about it. I was like, you know, 17, 18. I was like, oh, I'll go.
Like, you know, I'll go.
And it was the weirdest fucking freak festival.
It's on, you know what I mean?
It's Rocky R.
So it's like everybody's dressed in fishnets.
So, you know, in the nineties
for a 17 year old kid from Staten Island.
Yeah, from Staten Island.
It was like, what the fuck is going on?
Yeah, you have a surprise.
You have a surprise.
You have to stop, a lot of you know,
knocks some people out.
I just look swinging.
What's all this gay?
You and you and you.
I ended up going to Rakiha over the course of that summer probably four or five times.
I went just to like because she was dressed.
You fell in love with it.
I fell in love with her and fishnets is what I fell in love with.
Did that love make you put on a pair of fishnets?
Not yet.
Okay.
So I know the movie really well.
And then it was on Broadway with Joan Jett played the character.
I went to go see it on Broadway.
And I've always just kind of liked the movie.
And now that I was there, like, I started playing the soundtrack and I watched the movie
last night and I'm like full on back into, I just love Rocky Horror again, man.
You love it again.
Rekindle the fire.
And this time I'm like, I'd put on the fish nets.
I'd do it.
I'd go and do it.
Would you?
Would Young Q beat the shit out of old Q?
Well, no.
I hope so.
Fish nets.
I was fucking walking around the building like, oh, this is so cool.
Where's my fish nets? Fish nets. I was fucking walking around the building like, oh, this is so cool.
Where's my fish nets?
Yeah, it was pretty cool.
It was pretty cool.
But I was there for two days by myself, just thinking.
Yeah.
And what's worse for a guy like us, just sitting there for two days by himself, sitting on
the fucking banks of the Thames, just thinking at one in the morning.
It's not great.
Got a lot of changes I got to make.
You can't get a pair of Spanx fishnets?
I don't mean to lose a weight. I used to be my life. Yeah, that's the river right there.
See how it goes right next to us. It's so nice. No, it's just about my life and all
my decisions and what I'm going to do.
It's going to be good.
It was good.
It was necessary.
I feel like a new man coming back from England.
So you felt you needed to course correct?
Well, I just feel like-
Because I'm looking at you now.
I thought you had it.
Shit was tight.
Yeah, like what more can go right for this guy?
What the fuck?
Yeah, it was like, Jesus Christ for this guy? Jesus Christ. He's like, I'm on an all
expense trip to England sitting on the back of the tent thinking of how I fucked up. I
don't know. You might be too hard on yourself. Oh my God. It's like, it's like, look, May, what's today, May 23rd, May 31st of this year,
it would have been my 20 year fire department.
Oh, anniversary.
And not that I don't think I would retire to 20 years.
Like nobody, you just love it too much, but that was always the thought like,
Oh, when that 20 years goes by, that era could be at an end.
And then with the TV show, I was always like, well, you know, I'll do it till I was going
to retire from the fire department and our contracts up now and they want more seasons.
But I am having that thing of like, is this just time for something new?
You know what I mean?
Like new horizons or disappear?
I don't know.
So it was like a lot of, you know, cut to me fucking do four more seasons. But you know, it's a lot of deep thoughts and getting older and, and,
and you know, a lot of deep thoughts on the fucking banks of the teams.
And you came to some conclusions, so it sounds like.
You know, I'll tell you the honest truth is one decision was after the season's over,
I think I'm just, let me finish. I was
like, I think I'm just going to, no matter what, whether we do more seasons or not, just
fucking just disappear, tell them like I need a year and a half before we do anymore and
just disappear. And then it came to this podcast and I was like, what the hell the guys would
feel if I came and was like, guys.
Oh, you mean tell them Steve Dave too?
Literally everything. And I was like, if I come to him and be like, you know what guys,
I'm just going to take
a few months off.
Maybe I'll come back for the Christmas special.
And then by the end of it, I was like, I don't want it.
I don't want to take time off.
And then it starts going and then it's like, I'm going to miss the crew if I don't do the
show.
And then that happens and that.
And then before you know it, I'm like, fuck, I'm just going to be busy until the day I
die.
Yeah.
But I don't know.
I'm going back and forth on a lot of stuff.
I got to figure out the second
beautiful act here, right? Second, huh?
Second, yeah. I thought this was third or fourth.
Second half of my life, I should say. I got to start worrying about that.
Why do you have to worry about it?
Well, concern myself with it. Maybe worry is not the right thing of what's next. I don't want to
just do what I'm doing now for the rest of my life. I'm going to just take it as it comes.
Maybe. You could slow down a little. You don't have to say yes to everything.
It seems like you are constantly out. Not in your house, you're at a charity event
or you're doing something in LA or you're doing something in England. Maybe that's
it. It's just like being away from home for so long.
But that stuff is hand in hand with the lifestyle I'm living. So to get rid of all that, I have
to really get rid of a lot. Just really rewrite the rules about what I'm doing day to day.
Anyway, I didn't mean to come in here and talk about this. This is just what I was thinking
out there. I got another 40 years of life. What am I going to do with it? I did this. What am I going to do next? I don't mean the podcast. I don't
know. It was just weird thoughts. I'm not used to fucking sitting by myself, not talking
for two weeks. It's a lot out of my head. But the thing that saved me was Rocky Horror. Rocky Horror, I mean, it's one of those movies I've seen half of it.
I never saw the whole Rocky Horror picture show. And the first time I saw half of it was we were
at a con in Florida down in Miami and Ming was like, hey, you want to go to the Rocky Horror
thing? And I was like, yeah, sure. Well, I'll go. I've never seen it before. He shows up with two of the drunkest strippers I think I've ever seen in my life.
And I know it's supposed to be a good time and you don't have to really be quiet, but
they were so fucking obnoxious.
I was like, I'm out.
Yeah, I just left.
So I never actually got to see the second half.
Tim Curry's so fucking good.
And I heard he's good at Susan Sarandon.
They're all so good.
I watched it again last night.
We will watch it. You want to watch it? Yeah, sure. Let's watch it Susan Sarandon. They're all so good. I watched it again last night.
We will watch it. You want to watch it?
Yeah, sure.
Let's watch it.
All right.
Why not?
Let me get into that.
Got our fishnets out.
What are you doing tonight?
You want to come over and watch it?
Okay, all right.
I'll do two nights in a row.
But good time.
I did see this, Q.
What do you got?
Very concerned for you.
Me?
Yeah.
I see that Murray is stealing your railroad thunder.
I did see that.
Yeah.
I was like, Q was talking about his setup at home and it's a little circle.
It goes around in a circle.
Yeah.
Murray bought an entire house.
Look at that.
Filled with-
He saved it.
He saved the club or whatever it was, right? Yeah
This is very similar to the miniature. Well see that train
Yeah, but apparently it's it's like a thousand square foot basement or something where the whole thing is that
Setup and his club meets there once a week of the club can still come well when Murray bought the house
He said because he was buying the house for something else. He's like look out, I'll save the basement. They could still come every week and do it.
And they're obviously very happy because he owns all that now, which is kind of cool.
Yeah. He blew me out of the water.
Yeah. I was sorry to see that. You're going to have to double up your efforts.
I can go by any time I want and play with his train. So I'm going to do that.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, what'd I miss?
What happened last week?
You guys did an episode?
So there, yeah, but there was also another concerning thing happened regarding
Q and Gitem, I think probably should get on mic after I say it, but did you have,
did you own a storage unit that you went to Linquin on?
And because there's a whole bunch bunch there's somebody selling a whole bunch of Q related items and get
them actually bought want some stuff off the guy and the guy lives in Hazlitt
really yeah just tell him you know he's in Hazlitt? The guy lives in Hazlitt.
But he said he bought the storage unit in Staten Island.
I don't think so.
Had taps, glasses.
And he was in your gear company.
Uh, I bought a hat to match my Christmas sweater.
Uh, I don't know.
I got a nice cut out of you.
I have a storage unit, but I.
Had furniture.
You had a storage unit.
I mean, it's, I paid every month, you went the way of that bagel store.
Did you owe more than 93K on that storage unit?
Because if you did, yeah, they blew it open and somebody bought the content.
Not to my knowledge.
Is it possible one of your people dropped the ball?
Let me ask right now.
All right.
Yeah, I had, well, the shipping was exorbitant, but then I realized the guy was in Hazlitt's, I said, oh, can you do a local pickup?
And I pretended I didn't, you know, it wasn't.
You're playing it cool.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Mm-hmm.
But there is cardboard cutouts with your face on it.
Oh, that's probably from the nitro circus.
No, no, it's all rumps and.
No, it all, we have it on R&H.
Oh, you have a unit dedicated to R and H stuff?
I mean, I was in it like four months ago.
It's not even like.
Four months ago, a lot could happen in four months.
Yeah.
No, my point is it's on, it's like pays every month.
Like why would they.
It's like on auto.
Yeah.
Right.
The card get canceled.
Yeah.
Expired or something.
Uh, I don't know.
Maybe I, hey man, if they did, good luck. There's furniture in it. Did you have furniture in it? There, expired or something. I don't know. Maybe. Hey man, if they did,
good luck. There's furniture in it. Did you have furniture in it? There was some furniture
in it. Hopefully it wasn't expensive furniture. That's a great picture. Yeah, it is.
Q and old Benjamin.
Hopefully we didn't get somebody in trouble.
I thought maybe you just let it go. Cause you're like, fuck it.
I don't need this shit no more.
So you're making the decisions out in that and you're
in your, guess what?
Cancel the storage unit.
I'm moving on.
No more.
No.
So get him.
This guy said he bought my unit and he's selling.
Yeah, he's selling a piecemeal.
Wow.
I mean, that's the stuff that's in the unit.
Oh, well, that just took care of itself.
That's bizarre.
Oh, wow.
Beer taps.
Oh, wait, I had, I assumed that it was not, there's like, there's no way.
I like said, Q shit is so tight.
There's no way he's not paying his bill.
I was like, this has to be somebody who was like a Q fanatic who couldn't pay his bill.
I would have never dreamed that it was actually Q's merch.
Well, hold on. I'm looking into it.
I was wondering, Walt, when you were talking about, um, last week, when you
were talking about you and Alicia going up to the hospital and her accidentally
fucking up the GPS.
Did I tell that on Mike?
Yeah, you told that on Mike.
Did I?
And, uh, I think so.
Yeah.
I don't think so.
No, I don't think I did.
No, remember you go, it was so fucked up and then.
I thought for sure you told me all that stuff.
Well, I'll make, well, you know what? it was so fucked up and then. I thought for sure you'd go through all that stuff.
Well, you know what?
I did get an email saying that a listener was pretty upset that I retold a story about
Alicia and me going to see lights, saying that like, hey, can you stop retelling stories?
Oh my God.
So, and this would be really bad if I tell the same story two weeks in a row.
My daughter, Caitlin, was having the baby.
She goes in on Wednesday night, but they say, baby's not going to come until probably late
Thursday night.
You can expect that.
My wife goes up around seven o'clock in the morning and she says, you and Alicia can
go up later this evening.
So me and Alicia get in the car, I put the coordinates in my Jeep and she puts it in
her phone and as we're driving up, Alicia keeps going.
You know, if we go my way, we could save like a half hour and I'm like, well, let's go your
way.
This traffic is horrendous going this way. So we start to go her way and all the whole time,
I should have realized it, but the Jeep is
fighting me saying, go back, go back, turn around.
Go back.
Is there anything more annoying than that?
When you think you're going the right way.
And I'm like, I go, this, this shit is so broken.
I said this, like, I can't stand this GPS and
this Jeep, it's always wrong.
I said, so then we get off, we finally get to
the hospital in Pennsylvania.
It's like a two hour, with traffic it was almost three hours.
And we get into the parking lot of the hospital and Alicia looks at her, the location where
she could see where Deb is.
And she just lets out this gasp and she goes, oh no, mom's in a different hospital. And I was like, what?
And she goes, yeah, she's in the hospital.
It's like, it's just like, it's like an hour
and a half away.
So we went the wrong way, went to the wrong
hospital, the hospital are all the same name
in Pennsylvania though.
Right.
So we didn't know that every hospital was
named the same, whatever it's called.
So we had to fucking get hop back on the
highway and we walked into the hospital.
And I shit you not.
Uh, as we got off the elevator, we see Deb sitting there like what's going on?
She's like nothing yet.
And then two seconds later, you know, we were, we
were led in literally two seconds later, we were
able to go in so nobody had any idea that I had
just walked in like two seconds before, you know,
that we were allowed to see the baby.
Right.
My question was, because when you told the story and you were like, so calm, cool and collected with Alicia.
Oh yeah, yeah. Cause she was fucking having a meltdown.
Right.
I had to remain super calm or else it could have went to Def Con four or five. I was like,
showed any hint of annoyance, it would have been bad because she was so upset.
She would get upset. She would get upset.
She was already upset.
Because I wondered if it was get him.
Would I have the same reaction?
Right.
Like you wouldn't get him or head in up there.
I probably would have screamed.
I probably would have screamed in his face.
He would have no eyebrows from the laser fucking onslaught.
Especially if it didn't go the way it went, where you walked in and the baby's like,
here he is.
It happened when we went to the outdoor game.
Stadium series.
Yeah.
Cause my GPS wanted me not to avoid tolls.
And yeah, it was fun.
But the difference between the NHL outdoor game was that Gideon wanted to be there six
hours before the game started.
Right.
So it didn't matter what time we got there because we had to freeze our balls off for
no reason.
Oh, that's right.
It was cold.
It was brutal.
That was the coldest I've ever been in my life.
Yeah.
But, and for those who, like, there was some people who didn't even know that, I guess
my daughter was having a baby.
If you want to know the story behind it, well, I mean, not the birds and the bees,
but the story is told on the Tim benefit pod, Tim, the record store benefit pod.
If you haven't picked that up, go pick it up and you'll hear a good story and
you'll help a good guy with his battle right now.
Going battles.
And that's on bandcamp. It's called Tim, the record store benefit pod. guy with his battle right now. Ongoing battles, yeah.
And that's on Bandcamp.
It's called Tim the Wreck-It-Store Benefit Pod.
How's Tim doing? You talk to him?
I talked to him.
He, uh, he got his voice procedure where like now, like he could, like if he,
when it, if it comes to it, when it comes to it, if it comes to it, he'll be able
to communicate, uh, by much like you did with
your speed can spell. But it'll be much more advanced. It sounds like him. It sounds like him.
And I think there's no words that he can't type in that won't sound like him when he
converses with people. Hopefully they didn't come to that. Yeah, hopefully it doesn't.
No. And they got all the episodes done.
I did three and then I never heard back from anybody ever again.
I wasn't sure if they-
Well, you did it wrong.
I was like, don't give any more to Brian.
Get the fuck out of here.
Holy shit.
You did exactly what was asked of me.
No, no, no.
I'm only kidding.
Yeah, it was fine.
Whatever you turned in worked perfectly and it's completely done.
He just texted me this morning actually and said that he got the program and it's in his
hands when he needs it.
This is Declan.
No, this is Tim.
Oh, Tim has the program.
Yeah, it's all sorted.
Oh, nice.
That's cool.
Did you find out?
No, I wish you guys hadn't told me actually because cause now it's like, all I can do is, I mean,
I don't care if it's gone, it's gone.
Like I don't care, but like I have, then I have internal problems.
Like why didn't it get to me before they sold it off?
So now I'm sorry.
No, I wish you hadn't told me.
I assume, oh God.
Yeah, it's all right.
You were going to find out though.
Would I?
I don't know.
That's my point.
Like what the fuck?
What the fuck?
Yeah, if nobody says anything to you.
When did this guy tell you that he bought my thing that I'm finding out fucking weeks
later?
No, no, it was only, it was less than a week ago.
It was like four days ago.
Why is it three days before he's texting me and being like, this guy's selling out.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, well, you know what?
And in his defense, he said, should I tell Q?
And I was like, I said, there's no way that Q allowed his storage unit to go unpaid.
I said, this is not his storage unit.
I said, this is some hardcore collector, I said, or it's the guy who made the shit for
Q.
Well, probably the credit card ran out.
I mean, I know it was in there and it's like, it's fine.
Like there's nothing in there that I'm like, a
piece of furniture I wanted actually from beyond.
I bet you know it. The guy still has it. You can contact the guy.
The guy's sick.
He's a decent guy.
You're mad at the guy?
No, no, no. I'm not mad at anybody. I don't really care. That's the thing. At the end
of the day, it's like, I don't really care that. There's nothing in there that I'm like,
blah, blah, blah, but you know.
Don't be mad at him, because he did ask me, should I tell Q?
No, no, no, I'm not mad at him.
I don't mean it like that, buddy.
I said, I would not bother Q, he's in England right now.
I go, there's little to no chance on the planet that guy lets his storage unit go unpaid.
Right.
Because it takes a long time before they do that, I said.
It's at least a couple months.
It's not like he misses one month and then
they get rid of all your shit.
And you get notices.
It had to be a credit card, it got canceled
or something and it didn't get it.
And it probably went to an email that I don't
check and blah, blah, blah.
It's all right.
Worst thing that could happen to me.
In fact, it's a little bit of relief that all
that shit's out of the light.
Now it's gone.
Yeah.
Probably brought the show down though. In fact, it's a little bit of relief that all that shit's out of the way.
Probably brought the show down though.
Threw me a bit, only cause I got to figure it out. Not cause I'm like upset.
Just like, well, where was the breakdown?
You're acting like you just, if you had a freezer and there
were the body in it.
No, who says that?
Wouldn't that be crazy?
What do you guys do? It's like a drifter's body is in a freezer.
As soon as I can talk to you, the moment I can talk to you, I'm like, cue me.
We got to record an episode before they hold me always.
Got to do a cue benefit pod for his lawyers.
Yeah, really.
That's a tough one, Sal, though, that benefit pod to help cue this legal team.
There was some ride a die ants out there.
The curator still, he's still buying that.
He's true blue.
Tony Stark and he's with me still. Not some of the 13%ers, anybody?
Because I'm assuming it's some dead prostitutes.
Oh, I went drifter.
Yeah, okay.
I was thinking dead prostitutes, probably like three or four.
Maybe.
You'll always get some people that are like, what'd they do?
Oh, wow.
But wait, you were asking me about Alicia being upset.
The question was if it were Gittum.
Oh, if it were Gittum.
That was my question.
If it were Gittum, what would the reaction have been different?
I had to bottle it up and I was very proud of myself though.
I told her, are you shorter?
There's no way that kid's coming until 11 o'clock, I said tonight. But that kid was there at 8.30 and we got there
at 8.25 probably.
That's all, you know, it all worked out though.
Yeah, there was no reason.
Like if I had blown up, it would have been the point.
Right.
Yeah, it only would have made her feel worse.
Yeah, it made her feel worse.
She was already feeling bad as it was.
It was a teaching moment.
Maybe I, maybe I should bring that, what I learned dealing with her to my, to my work
son, you know, I treat my, I treat my biological daughter differently than my work son.
I shouldn't.
I'm ashamed of myself. They're about the same.
Yeah.
I was thinking that I talked about going to Vegas. There really wasn't much to say
because I didn't really do that much aside from the podcast fest, but I did forget and I wrote
it down that when we first got there and it was multiple times, Mary Beth and I, we were
referred to as the kids.
Oh, really?
Take it where you can get it.
Yeah.
Take it where you can get it because there ain't no place on the planet you're getting
referred to as a kid.
For Christ sakes, I'm a 57 year old man.
What do you mean kid?
And it's not like these people are like 80. What are you getting referred to as a kid? Because I work for Christ's sake, I'm a 57 year old man. What do you mean kid?
And it's not like these people are like 80.
They're like 62.
So I'm only like five years older than them.
But repeatedly referred to as-
Younger.
Younger, yeah, sorry.
Repeatedly referred to as, oh, when are the kids going?
Where are they going?
Wow.
The kids.
Felt so youthful.
Yeah.
See, that's when you take that opportunity, go get some Grecian formula.
Fucking make that beard, make it that beard.
Fucking my hair the same color.
It was never brown though.
That's okay.
Doesn't matter.
A lot of people just grab whatever on the shelf, whatever color.
You think I looked young then?
Look who's here. Dad Kid Johnson. It's your kid. What are the kids saying? I don't know. Whatever we want.
I also found out that it had spread around. Now I told Q learn this about me in, when we're down in Q west, that I cannot stand
wind chimes.
Yeah.
I hate them.
Like a phobic, phobic reaction.
That may be the sign of a diseased mind.
Could be.
Usually those are calming and.
See, I disagree man.
They bring you to a state of.
So discordant. Yeah, no, not, not at all, man. Like ever since I was little, I've hated them. Those are calming and bring you to a state of zen.
See, I disagree, man.
It's so discordant.
Yeah, no, not at all, man.
Like ever since I was little, I've hated them.
I hate the motion of them.
I hate the way they sound.
And I also, I mentioned it on the show.
I think it's arrogant when people put up wind chimes because it's like everybody around
you now has to listen to them too.
My neighbors had wind chimes when I lived in Highlandton. I used to go and take
them down at night.
My daughter, the baby was born a couple of days before Mother's Day, so I got to buy
her a Mother's Day gift. I brought her wind chimes.
Got her wind chimes? Oh, you arrogant son of a bitch.
Yeah. It's like, fuck your neighbors. You got a kid now. They want to hear this every
day. It was a little baby turtle laying like in a, laying on a pillow and a blanket and
underneath where all these like silver wind chimes, I was in a pinch.
I, I, I went to a drug store.
I was like, give me something out of the strange fucking town.
I don't know what to get.
I don't, all my places where I usually shop, I don't know where anything is.
And they're in Pennsylvania and fucking Tim fuck too.
There's one drug store in between.
The next one would be 45 minutes away.
I was like, I'll take that.
It's like forgetting like that.
She likes turtles, right?
Yeah.
It looks like a baby.
Baby turtle.
Yeah.
It's like forgetting to get somebody a souvenir on your way home from a trip.
You're like, shit, and then you got to buy something in the airport that's kind of like,
doesn't look like you got it from the airport.
My point about the wind chimes being though is that I found out later on that, like, because
Mary Beth's mom will take hers down.
Yeah, when you're there, just-
When I'm there, she'll take them down just so I don't have to listen to them.
But she also went around to the neighbors.
You went on your fucking wind chime manifesto at dinner table with them? You let them know you
hate them?
Oh yeah. Well, they've known for a while. This isn't the first trip they've learned it. They
knew it for a while, but this time around, they went around to a couple of the neighbors
and were like, hey, we got this guy.
He's like such an asshole.
They got this special needs guy.
They keep saying, like, her mom thinks it's funny.
She's like, he's afraid of wind chimes.
I'm like, I'm not fucking afraid of them.
Well, that's her just being passive aggressive.
Yeah, she's like, okay.
She's a pussy, yeah.
Okay.
So this is a good married.
He's going to make a big deal about the wind chimes.
All right, I'm going to tell everybody in the neighborhood he's scared of them.
There are wind chimes everywhere, man.
Yeah.
You have to put a new street sign up.
Yeah, like no wind chimes.
With your face.
Yeah, like deaf child area.
It's like no wind chimes.
Big fat pussy lives on this street.
Quite fat. on this street. To be fair, I knew why back then.
Oh my God. What else do we got here? Hawk Tuah spoke out.
Who?
Hawk Tuah.
That's still going on? She disappeared, right? After she did her Bitcoin? What else do we got here? Hawk2a spoke out. Who? Hawk2a.
That's still going on?
She disappeared, right?
After she did her Bitcoin?
She disappeared for like four or five months.
Yeah.
I think I need a new fucking iPad or something.
Okay, here we go.
Hawk2a, Haley Welch.
What was that?
I don't know.
You better go lay down for a second.
I'm having a seizure over here. Talk to a girl.
Hallie Welch didn't know how crypto worked before meme coin disaster as viral celeb finally
speaks out.
I got talked into it.
I got talked to into it.
Yeah, exactly.
Now she, I saw her, her podcast.
Yeah, nice.
Yeah.
No wind chimes.
Get them just pulled up aside.
Oh, was that AI?
Yeah. No wind chimes.
Oh, was that AI? Yeah.
She started doing her podcast again and it's gone from like, uh, hundreds of
thousands of listeners down to like 17,000.
Like still not bad.
Yeah.
It's dwarfing ours at this point.
Still not bad. Nothing is dwarfing ours at this point. Still not bad.
But my question about her, she almost dismissed everything that had to do with her.
She's like, she admits, when she goes through this whole thing where she admits that she
didn't know what the meme coin was, she didn't understand it, she knew that it was something
weird about it.
She was like, I knew something was off she's
going. She's like, but then I got talked into it. It's like, that's your fault. That's not their
fault for talking you into it. It's not their fault that you don't understand this shit.
She trusted the wrong person.
She trusted the wrong people. That's what she said. But I was just like, I couldn't believe
the desire or the attempt to get out of any responsibility
whatsoever.
She's like, you know, I'm sorry, let down my fans.
That's really all she said in terms of.
But what is she, what would you have been looking for from her?
I feel like she had her time.
She was an internet meme.
She got a little bit of notoriety, a little bit of money off of it.
Uh, she seemed likable enough, but this is where you see it's like,
she's just an average person.
She's just a dummy.
So like, so why, why come back?
Why not just like do your own thing?
Well, just look at 17,000 listeners.
Not for long.
I bet you not for long.
There's no fucking way.
When I watched this podcast, I was like,
this is the most boring fucking shit.
This should be exciting.
Like she's talking about the whole crypto disaster
and it was the most boring shit ever.
Did she mention how much she pocketed from it?
She said after, she got an upfront fee.
Didn't say how much, but she said it all went to like lawyers,
PR people, that kind of thing. Now, I don't think whoever did her PR, I think she should
get her money back. Good luck with that. Yeah. Because there was, I saw nothing about her at all. So like where's the damage control?
She should have just
Not disappeared though
She should come out immediately. She should have been I think disappearing is
It's tough then to come back and be like I didn't know well, why'd you disappear? Mm-hmm, you know because Oh, probably because everybody was fucking screaming at her. Who told you to lay low?
True.
Where's the joy in popping your head out
when people are like, fuck you?
Sometimes you gotta face the fucking music.
Yeah?
Yeah, man, yeah.
Do you when you're hot too, girl?
Yeah, we haven't faced the music sometimes.
I think we face it weekly on Reddit, I believe, right?
There was times when we didn't face the music
for about a month.
Yeah, that's nice.
Those are nice times to remember.
And what happened?
Nothing.
Isn't that what you want?
Yeah, so Hawk 2, I think Hawk 2's time is done. I hate to say.
Let's see what she parlay's us into. Maybe this is where she shines.
You think so?
She has no, I mean, her set still looks pretty good, but she has no, she thinks she has one
sponsor left.
Yeah.
It's harder for her to get guests now.
Do we have a sponsor this week?
We do.
How many?
Just the one.
Uh-oh.
Fuck.
I was going to say, we could say we have more sponsors than her, but.
We definitely do, usually weekly. I mean, she has, when I say she has more sponsors than her. But we definitely do usually weekly.
I mean, she has, when I say she's one sponsor, she's not just one that week,
she has one for every week.
Now, do you think she sits around trying to come up with the next
catch, sexual catchphrase?
Like, okay.
I doubt it.
Cause when I saw.
That would be the way to go.
If I was her PR person, I'd be like, all right, we got to sit down in a room
together for entire week, just coming up with sexual catchphrases.
And you just spit them out and you're almost like SpongeBob, like, ha ta ta.
Just try to catch fire.
One more time.
Like catch lightning in a bottle twice.
Do you think there is something that she could say that would-
I don't know why it happened the first time.
The internet just happened to be-
It was the right time, the right place.
It's all a lightning in a bottle, man.
These kind of people, they do.
They wear out their welcome and they disappear and maybe that's what you should have just
done.
Fuck it, man.
I'm done.
It can't be too dirty and too gross.
Right. Like Hawk Two is just general enough and ambiguous enough that unless you explain it,
it doesn't sound that dirty, but you're right. People fucking latched onto it.
Dude, I was on the road to, I believe, the Grand Canyon coming back and it was on the internet. I went into a mall and there was like
those kiosks. They had already made these like fucking, what's that shitty, that little thing,
the cricket. Like they were making shirts out of the cricket, you know, the vinyl.
Oh yeah.
That said Hawk Two was spit on that thing on the back. I mean, within a day or two, they were trying to catch it on the internet.
Yeah.
Some people knew.
Popularity of it.
Yeah.
So fast.
Like that guy who's that quick on a draw, he just needs a better vehicle.
Cause that's fucking amazing that somebody's that quick on the fucking.
That quick.
And she mentioned it.
She wasn't happy about it.
She was like, you know, all
these people knocking off my merchant stuff. Yeah.
Boo hoo.
Yeah. Talk to us. TSD makes the world takes bitch.
You're very angry.
What is the coin worth now? What is Hawk 2?
Oh, zero.
Is it absolute? Not even a cent?
I don't know. Not even a cent. It's like a fraction of a cent, I believe.
Yeah, it was like, it was like what they call, I believe, rug pulling, right?
Get them?
Yeah, where they set up this, these meme coins or these, this cryptocurrency.
And there's a certain, like the people who set it up, they know what's going to happen.
They know that a Hawk 2 situation is going to happen. So they let everybody buy in and then they sell. And then that's the real
polling is when they sell. When the people who set it up, oh my God, it's worth 0.00001282 of a
cent. With a market cap of 12.34,000, when it was at its high, I think it was, what was it?
Like something nuts, like 500 million or something.
Ooh.
It was something crazy.
Oh my God.
Why can't it happen again though?
What part?
What do you mean?
The whole thing, like another internet celebrity puts out a coin and
the same thing happens, like why, what is in place to stop this from happening again though?
Nothing, right?
Nothing, nothing I don't think.
Yeah.
So that's, I don't, I don't like this bullshit with fucking bitch shit.
That's what I call it.
Bitch shit.
Bitch shit.
I'm going to get my cricket shirt.
Go rent a kiosk in the mall.
Hang out the maple store.
Bitch hit store.
I think Joe would be like, I don't see any rent coming from this business either.
We want to do everything bigger and better.
We're going to stick it for 94K.
Previous tenant did 93, I'm doing 94 bitch.
Not only that, bitch it now goes up on the main, on that main sign.
Everybody knows what it means though.
Anything that sucks's bitch shit.
All right.
Oh, Hawk Tua.
Yeah, and it's weird, like on the podcast she had, instead of just coming on and doing
a monologue and saying, here's what happened.
She had her friend with these canned questions that were so bad. Oh, really? Oh, God almighty. Yeah. It's like, here's what happened. She had her friend with these canned questions that were so bad.
Oh, God almighty. Yeah. It's like, interesting. You should ask that kind of shit.
It was really set up. Didn't have the free flowing like fun hawk to energy that the previous ones had. And she was there without her PR people. So she was making it up as she went.
She doesn't know what to do anymore. Yeah. Wonder if she has any money from it.
I wonder if she survived at all.
I know she did some appearances.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So I'm sure she got appearance fees.
But there was rumors that she walked away with millions from that, that she's the one
that walked away from the bit scandal.
Really?
So for her to come back tells me she didn't though.
Because if you walk away with millions, you don't come back.
Right. You just hide. Yeah., you don't come back. Right.
You just hide. Yeah, you just go. You move on to something else.
Yeah, you can't apologize. Right.
Right. So she must not have or else why come back and do a shitty pod?
Right. Yeah, that's what I believe. I think that she probably has-
With one sponsor. What's the point if you're-
One sponsor, yeah. Like the Paul brothers, Jake and Logan Paul were backing it before, so they had like a budget.
They had, you know, their contacts, you know, to get guests and shit.
Oh, they were backing her up, I guess?
Yeah, they were, they were in business with her.
Oh, wow.
I think they might have even had something to do with the meme coin.
I'm not positive.
They did?
Okay, yeah, I was confirming that.
How come they don't pay a price like Hawk Tool?
I don't know.
I don't know.
Like I had heard that the Paul brothers had something to do with it and
everything came down on Hawk Toa. I mean, she's the face of it, I guess.
Well, it doesn't happen without her.
Right. It doesn't happen without her. And she had the opportunity to say no. She knew she should
have said no. I don't know if she knew to say no.
She said she knew she should have said no. Oh, well, she's saying that. Yeah, yeah.
Well, I'd say no. She said she knew she should have said no. Well, she's saying that. Yeah. Well, I'd say 2020.
Yeah.
But I guess, like you said, she just liked, she liked the riches were promised, I bet.
Everybody's going to get rich off this.
It's crypto.
Blah, blah, blah.
Yeah.
The Pied Piper was playing his tune like they always do.
And rats will follow.
Rats do follow. They always do. That's their nature.

Now I wanted to get your guys' opinion on this, but it's, I'm
kind of loathe to bring it up.
It's kind of a touchy subject because that has to deal with Canada and sports.
But the Maple Leafs were eliminated from the Stanley Cup playoffs the other day.
And they have a history of going south when it matters and not showing up in big games
and they haven't won a cup since 67. And apparently that city is New York on steroids in terms of the
press and the attention that the hockey club gets. And that now has gone also now the mounting
pressures from social media and fan base doing things that are,
that crossed the line during the season
towards players and shit.
So now that they're using that as an excuse,
some of the players as to why they,
why the pressure's too much at times.
Oh boy.
Yeah, what do you think?
Should they, does the fan base hold some accountability for the teams and ability to like they're booing them constantly.
These are their fans that are going oh yeah the fans are what is the Toronto Maple Leafs.
I don't want to say I don't want to like.
I don't want to piss off Canada because I did and it was it was dicey it was bad and it since that time, you cannot believe some of the fucking hate emails.
Still?
I thought I was fucking-
We apologize.
Yeah, W's for Flanagan.
I thought I had the fucking tough ones.
But for the same issue?
No, no, no.
Oh, new issues.
It's all different shit.
Oh, I see.
Yeah, it's all, but some people physically want to punch me, they say.
What? Over what?
Apparently, I was too harsh on Ming.
On Ming? On Ming's standup. I was too harsh on Ming. On Ming?
On Ming's standup.
I thought you were pretty dead on with Ming's standup.
But I guess I could have said it in a nicer way for this person, but it's like,
you need a punch in the mouth.
Did Ming write the email?
Wow, but what was their point? What was their point? Like, what was their point? They are no longer listening because I trash too many things and I'm a guy who deserves
a punch, who's never gotten punched in the mouth. So that's why you go on mic and you
trash everybody.
How?
I don't, Ming sent it to me. He knew he was going to get trashed.
Did Ming, like Ming didn't actually think that we were going to go over it and be
like, wow, what a fucking great set.
The next Louis CK everyone.
But it's just, it is surprising though, when you get these emails and people are
now are saying that they physically want to assault you because that is a different,
that's a different tone.
And then I read, get them one yesterday that I got saying they hate me and get them because
we're stupid and we're the dumbest fucks ever.
They don't know how I was able to procreate because I'm so stupid.
You still get nice emails?
Yeah, I still get some nice ones, but boy, those harsh ones, they linger around your
head longer than the good ones. The good ones, you kind of like –
Yeah.
You kind of don't even notice them.
Why is that, man? Why do you dismiss them?
That's human nature.
Yeah, is it? Everybody does it.
Yeah, I think – and that's what goes right back to the players. The players are getting
treated, I think, horrifically by the media and their own fan base. But if the wind blows
a different direction and the fan base sends me some emails, I'm like, those players had
it coming. Those players had it coming. They're getting paid millions to play a child's game.
Put on your big boy pants, assholes.
Whatever you're thinking in your head right now at home, we agree with it.
No need to write Waltz.
But I found that a stunning admission though.
And it is an indication of we're living in different times because I think social media
now is really affecting athletes.
Sure.
It's like you have a pipeline of hatred coming your way. And it's like people who couldn't do anything on the field, what these guys are
doing. Sure. It is fucking so ridiculous.
Well they got a Gmail account though, Walt, so they can give you their opinion.
But these fucking fat out of shape losers.
Uh oh, bug, bug.
Or skinny jean wearing fems.
I think that they could get on that fucking sheet of ice and fucking score a goal like
Austin Matthews, but they're going to fucking ruin his life?
Yeah.
I find that like, how do you write those fucking texts or how do you repost those things on
X?
How do you do that and not be so self-aware?
Like I have been upset with my guys on the Devil's Team, but I have never
once been so out of touch that I was like, I got to get out there and fucking show them what to do.
Or telling them-
Yeah, they should listen to me.
Yeah, or how they should do things. I just get upset that they didn't win,
but I would not want to be a person that they would point to and be like, you made my life
miserable.
Right.
You know, I hate it playing in the city.
Like you as a human, I want to ruin you a day
and make you feel bad.
Yeah, I would not want to be that person.
Never understood it.
You know, we get hate like that.
And I'm just like, that's why we say like happy people
don't do shit like that.
Like these are people who are unhappy
in their own life. There's this difference between complaining with your friends at a
bar or anything like that and then taking the time to-
Or on a microphone.
Yeah, or to reach out to someone and be like, you suck. It's such an ugly thing.
Especially, but when you're talking about guys who are, there's only, I don't know,
a couple hundred on the planet who are good enough to play in this league.
Right.
Who are you to tell them what they, how they should be playing though?
I agree.
It doesn't.
Yeah.
I just started with me.
Sports guys though, man, like a lot of them are like that, right?
Those Monday morning quarterbacks.
Yeah.
And I, I know I've been guilty of it in like talking to with in private though.
Like, like, oh, that quarterback does not fucking deserve to be in the NA NFL right now. I think even if like you were on a TV show like a like
one of those sports talk shows and you were talking about how much they suck like to me that's fair
game too like you're not attacking them personally like you're talking about that performance.
To go online and be like you fucking suck like'm going to punch you or whatever the fucking thing. What is
wrong with you? Like, why are people so mean? You know, I don't get it. I mean, I, you know,
they say it's an expression like to release. They're doing it to release some sort of,
they need it as a release too.
Someone on the other side of that though. and like if you're making them feel fucking
like bad, like why do you want to do that to another human?
I don't, I don't.
And there's also the other side of the argument that's like, okay, you're getting a hundred
million dollars.
You have to be able to take this too.
You have to be able to take the criticism.
That's why, like, I could dox those assholes that emailed me.
Right.
But I won't because-
It's illegal.
It's illegal?
Sure, doxing is illegal.
Really?
I see it happening constantly on the podcast I watch.
That's all they want to do is dox each other.
As if, you know the guy with the potato filter that I told you about a while ago.
He's on one of the podcasts that I watch. It's not him, it with the potato filter that I told you about a while ago. He's on one
of the podcasts that I watch. It's not him, it's a potato filter. That's his thing.
They're trying to find his real identity?
One stuttering John was trying to find his identity and he's like, I know where he works
and I know his name. He hasn't released it yet or revealed it yet. I know the guy and
he's just like, I don't care.
He must care though if he has that filter up though. hasn't released it yet or revealed it yet. But the guy, I know the guy and he's just like, I don't care.
He must care though if he has that filter up though.
Yeah. And I think he thought it was funny.
Like he, he would, it would be funny at first and then he just went with it.
But I, but me personally though, I do subscribe to this is part of the deal though.
If I'm going to put stuff out there, I have to be able to accept that there's
going to be some people who are going to write and say stuff that I perceive as mean or crossing
the line. And I just got, you know, that's why I, it's all, it's part of the business
though.
I don't know. There's something about someone being like, tell them Steve Dave sucks.
I don't like that podcast.
Fine.
To me, like, okay.
But like to reach out to you and be like, you deserve a punch.
That's what you're like.
No, I do.
I think that comes with it's yeah.
Like I have to accept that.
And if I don't accept it, I certainly am not upset by it.
I thought it was funny.
Yeah.
Like that guy that was going to come down to the store to get you, right?
Remember that guy that he was going to come down to the store and get you?
Oh, powering?
He was going to kill you or something?
Yeah, that was because of a bad eBay transaction. No, that shit's dangerous though.
That's real. People on eBay are fucking nuts. I'm not worried about a TSD listener.
Right.
Speaking of eBay, it looks like the storage unit went out of business
and didn't inform us and just sold it off.
Wow. You should sue them.
You really should.
I mean, what am I going to sue for?
Yeah, they don't have any.
A bunch of shit that was just sitting there for years anyway.
But they don't notify people to come get your stuff?
They don't notify you though?
Do they do it to everyone?
I don't know. I'm sure they did, but when it went to me, it would have went to
my sister or something like that. Right. Yeah, I don't know. I mean, I'm sure they did, but like, you know, wouldn't have went to me, wouldn't have went to my sister and something like that. Right.
Yeah.
I don't know.
Holy cow.
Yeah.
But I think though that like, it's tough for the players to come out and kind of
admit that, and if they do admit it, some see it as a sign of weakness.
And we'll go after even harder.
Yeah.
And some see it as like an indication of it's a different world now where
this is factoring into the pressures of a professional athlete or
professional podcaster.
But I, like, yeah, I, I don't think though that you should ever admit
that it bothered you though.
I guess I am saying it, but I live at the same people are like, they think I'm so stupid.
I don't know how to put my dick in my wife's fucking-
Well, you've proved them wrong already.
Yeah.
I don't know where to put it.
They think I'm that stupid.
That's a bit, that's a bummer that they think I'm that dumb, but at the end of the day,
that is the, that's part of the, the job agreement.
Well, what if, what if Gittem's job was to go through the emails and take out the ones
that are mean?
No, no, I need to hear, I need to hear it all.
Why do you need to hear it all. I need to see it all. Because sometimes,
not always are they 100% in the wrong. There are times though that there's some valid criticism. But who cares if they're right? Who gives a shit? What the fuck does that matter? If it's
making you feel bad, why deal with it? Because it makes you-
According to them?... re-evaluate. Okay, well, let me see.
Was this bad?
Was this not a good segment?
Did I tell this story before?
Oh, I did.
Hmm.
Okay.
I won't do that again.
Yeah.
But the coming from a fan of the show who loves the show is like, I don't even know
why they would write that email in a nice way.
That's different, but it got, it's like, you deserve a punch.
Well, am I too arrogant?
Am I too judgmental?
You already are, man.
I said you already are. No, you already are. It's like you're a fucking podcast from a strip mall. Who gives a shit if
you're too fucking arrogant? Like, cares.
Yeah, like there's a certain number of people listening and it's not spreading to CNN.
It's not spreading to any major news sources, not TMZ.
I am not a guy that believes in the, you know, the see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil.
All right.
Okay.
You know, I don't want to cover my ears.
I want to cover my eyes.
I want to see it all.
The good, the bad, and the ugly.
I think you're opening yourself up to a lot of opinions that don't matter in that way,
which is what self-sufficiency is.
I know, but right now though, my state of mind, like getting a bad email was like Superman
being, you know, throwing a rock at Superman.
It didn't matter.
I just had that grandchild.
This fucking idiot's fucking email was laughable in terms of how happy I was and everything.
So maybe that email comes on a different day. Maybe I would have been a bit more angrier to take action, but I know where that guy
though is.
I know where he is.
Yeah?
Yeah.
I know where he lives.
Docs his ass.
It's not Docs.
Why not?
I don't know.
I don't know.
You're just going to keep escalating it and escalating it.
And then what if he lives?
Or file a complaint with the police?
Like really take it to the next level. No, I'm not going to do that. I get it. I're just going to keep escalating it and escalating it. And then we're like, what if he lives? Or file a complaint with the police.
Like really take it to the next level.
I'm not going to do that.
I get that.
I believe that it's just part of the job description and I can deal with it.
Right.
I, my big boy pants fit.
Nice.
Fair enough.
Me and Gantem, right?
Cause Gantem, you were in that email too.
You were telling, he was calling him a dick sucker.
Really?
Yeah.
That he'll say anything to anybody who shows him any love.
He argues with this all the time.
I know.
That's why I was like.
There was one that said, the only reason I keep Gatum around is because I'm such a
loser.
It makes me feel better about myself.
How are you a loser?
It doesn't though.
No. it makes me feel better about myself. It doesn't though. No, I take no joy in the fact that you don't have, that you don't ever move up in your life.
There's no part of me that is like revels in the fact that he's living in a, in a office.
There's no part of me that's happy about that.
I actually would rather it not be that way.
There is no, I mean, there's been times,
whenever I tried, I tried to show him places.
I went to, I went and showed him listings.
I said, let's take a look at this.
And then when you see he's not really, it's a
too big of a move at this moment.
Then I back off then, and I haven't done that
since, but there's no part of me that like
keeps getting around so that I feel better
about myself.
Sure. But if that person wants to believe it, I mean, I looked him up, he's on Patreon, it's fine.
He can say it, I don't care.
Fair enough.
Sorry, dick sucker.
He can say what he wants to say. Now, if I look you up, I'll see an email and I look up and see if
it's on Patreon, it's not, well, maybe some docs may happen. I don't know.
Your information might get out there somehow.
I don't think we should dox anybody. I don't think we should mention.
Really?
I think that we should not-
Pull the curtain. You don't like to see pull the curtain back for people to see what it's
like to be a professional podcaster?
What's the point?
What's the point?
That it's not all fucking like parties and-
It's not all curators.
Does anybody think there's a single party going on here?
Not here, but you know, there's some podcasters that I do think are living like rock stars.
That's not us though.
It's not us though, and I think people don't believe it.
I think they think we are living like rock stars.
I think if you give attention, I don't even think we should mention Reddit ever again on the show. I'd like to institute a ban.
Really? A ban on Reddit? I think you stop giving it.
All right, let's take a vote. All right, that's my vote.
I don't, I like it. I'm no, I'm not a see no evil, hear no evil, but don't take it personally.
I don't think we should, but go ahead. I don't think we should either because otherwise-
Well, I'm surprised at that. Yeah, otherwise-
Because you take it the worst on your- Oh, I believe it. Yeah, I believe it. That Teflon coating is long gone.
That's stand up though.
Oh, thank you.
Get him going. I want to get one of Brian Johnson with that vote right there.
I'm not.
Why?
Because he voted against me.
But you can't take it personally though.
Well, I haven't gone on Reddit and I don't go on it.
So it doesn't affect me at all, but like-
It doesn't really affect me at all either.
I know that people say shitty stuff, but I'm like, I never see it.
And it doesn't really affect me.
I don't care what they say.
I don't care what they think.
But those who do say bad shit about you should, if you're listening right now,
reflect that that man still believes in the freedom of speech in America.
Yeah, you should be able to say it.
Yeah.
Nobody's saying that they can't say it.
I'm just saying like, why are you giving them oxygen
on this show?
Okay, all right.
It's pretty infrequent, I'd say.
Like we never bring up anything specific.
It's always just like Reddit hate.
Yeah, but I think like in a way,
even talking about the hate feeds the hate.
But I was on such a high for so many years though, no bad negative comments.
Now to see all these start to pile up after Canada.
You live long enough to become the villain, bro.
That's what happens.
What did I do wrong?
Was it all that Canada fucking joke?
It couldn't be that.
Or they just looking for a chance.
They're like, okay.
I think everybody's worked up these days, man.
He's wounded.
He's a wounded animal.
Get him. Let's go after him now on every aspect, on every front. They don't know who they're
dealing with though. These fucking rats. Fucking biting at me. Niffing at you.
I kick one off and another one fucking, two of them fucking attack from the other side.
Velociraptor.
Is there a trailer for the Jurassic Park?
I did not. Did you see Thunderbolt? I Jurassic Park? I did not.
Did you see Thunderbolt?
I don't want to take, but-
I saw Thunderbolt.
Okay.
Go ahead.
Jurassic Park.
You were a big Jurassic Park guy.
I did the last few movies I don't love.
The trailer looked good.
It looks like they're back on an island getting chased by dinosaurs in new situations.
Is that not what happened in the last couple?
They got out and they were fucking cloning humans.
They were running around.
It was all like this international conspiracy.
This is like, hey guys, there's an island.
Remember the island?
Right.
Oh, we're stuck on the island guys.
And oh, it's a T-Rex.
Now the T-Rex is underwater.
And I'm like, oh, that's fucking cool.
It's enough for me to see a swimming T-Rex try and bite someone underwater.
I'm like, they got my money.
Now you've heard the rumor, not the rumor, but you've heard the data come
out since Jurassic park has been released that dinosaurs don't really
look like the Jurassic park dinosaurs that they look more like birds and
they have feathers.
Sure.
Yeah.
Should Jurassic park be scientific accurate and create dinosaurs that
don't look as ferocious as T-Rex and look more like a big fat dodo bird. No, be scientific accurate. No. And create dinosaurs that don't look as
ferocious as T-Rex and look more like a big fat dodo bird.
No. Why?
Because they're trying to entertain, man.
Right. But-
Yeah, it's supposed to instill a sense of fear in you.
Plus, they say in the movie that they're not strictly dinosaurs, that they plug in frog DNA
and stuff, so there's no reason that-
So that's why they can get away with like, oh, we don't have to be accurate.
Good enough for BQ.
They got a Scarlett Johansson running around with a fucking gun looking
hot, shooting dinosaurs.
What do you want?
Accuracy.
Isn't it irresponsible of the makers of that film to keep the fallacy that dinosaurs look like
this when they look nothing like this.
We don't know that they don't look like that.
Well, there's data that shows it's high probability that they looked far different.
There's no way to tell.
And they may have been just as dangerous.
What, so if he has feathers, it's not as dangerous for you?
But we don't know that they have feathers.
It doesn't look like Sivarachi chasing you.
That is scary.
I've only watched that movie.
They cloned the Baraci.
With a boa, a feather boa.
I don't fucking watch that shit.
With nothing else on.
Fish nets? No, man.
Boob-er.
Uh, I thought the trail looked good. I don't know. It gave me hope.
That'll have a good time at the movies. Yeah, I think that thought the trail looked good. I don't know. It gave me hope. That'll have a good time.
Yeah.
I think that those are Jurassic park movies.
It's hard to not hit the bullseye.
It feels like when guys like you, all you want is dinosaurs on an
island, chasing and killing.
Yeah.
But the last two, like the three that Chris Pratt did, the first one,
what Jurassic world I thought was good.
Yeah.
Dinosaurs on an island, chasing people. Second
two movies, second one I watched, I was like, what the fuck's all this shit? Like, they're
selling dinosaurs to rich people. I'm like, great. Another fucking lesson about how rich
people are evil. Great. That's more fun.
This shit's too close to home.
Yeah.
Oh, BQ was trying to buy a dinosaur recently.
Oh, I'm not buying a dinosaur, Rich. I'm like, but I'm trying to watch Jurassic Park, man.
Like I like about the huge, and then the third one, but I'm trying to watch Jurassic Park, man. I like about the
hub- and then the third one, I didn't finish. That's what you were doing in England. You're
sitting around kicking rocks when I'm not even rich enough to buy a dinosaur.
Yeah, I'm not going to buy a dinosaur. I'm just going to buy a little feather dinosaur.
Teaching me a lesson.
They do seem less threatening if you took a Tyrannosaurus Rex and put feathers on him.
Yes.
Or a Stegosaurus and you put feathers on him.
Well, there's lots of raptors that had feathers, they think, right?
Yeah.
I think they had feathers.
They are the ones with feathers.
I don't know that T-Rexes did.
Well, you're saying that they've never even, I remember you saying-
Well, I don't even know.
Like, those Tyrannosaurus, there's a large population who doesn't believe they could have possibly existed because there's no heart that could have pumped blood
to that brain.
Maybe they had two hearts.
And holding up that neck, long neck.
What about your ass?
Yeah, they're-
Not as big as a brontosaurus.
And they're built differently.
Yeah, they're more like straight up whereas like the brontosaurus had a bend in it almost.
According to Spielberg, we don't know.
Yeah, that's true.
That's true.
That's right. That's what I'm talking about though.
Should he be held to a standard though,
that Hollywood has to be held to a certain standard.
If anything, if Hollywood's listening, less realism.
I'd like a lot less realism in my movies, please.
I've had enough.
Less realism, no lessons.
Oh, God.
That's what we're looking for.
Jesus Christ.
Well, about Thunderbolts, there was no lesson.
I guess there was. There was a lesson. Well, here's the thing about the lessons in
Thunderbolt, right? It's like, it's a universal lesson. It's about everything we all have in
common. And these are, it's not specific little nits and like, let me teach you about this,
this and this. It's about, you know, you man, it was fine. I liked it. Like it was fine. Like,
I didn't love it, but I was like, it's fine.
Well, it was about being allowing people to help you and letting people in and not feeling alone when you're dealing with, I guess, dark issues. I thought it was pretty ballsy that the main bad
guy in the movie is defeated with a group hug. I was like, that's pretty cool. I was like,
that's balls out, man. Like if they're willing to do that happen, like, I'm like, I'll go with it.
Yeah, this is getting Poffo reviews. Like, it is one of the best Marvel movies I've seen.
It's fun. It's fun.
Does it have BQ stamp of one of the best Marvel movies?
I wouldn't say it's one of the best.
Yeah, I agree with that.
It is fun. I sat there, I had a good time.
But the hype machine was really hyped up and I was like, wow, this is going to be, I'm
really expecting something.
I think people watch Marvels and were like, Jesus Christ, give us anything.
And they're like, here you go.
Don't get along.
No, I thought it was good.
And let me tell you, I really like came around on US Agent.
Me too.
I was like, I want to see a U S agent movie.
Yeah.
I was like, really good.
He's the best character in that movie.
And he's like, so he was like, did you watch the winter
soul, the show he was in?
Yeah.
He was captain America for like two minutes and he was just too violent.
Like, well, he beheaded somebody.
Yeah, but he's a soldier, but he got caught beheading someone with his shield.
So they stripped him and like now he's kind of adrift.
And he's like, he's the US agent, right?
US agent.
Is that what they ever call him?
I don't know they ever call them that, but, uh, he, you know, real fall from
grace, lost his wife, lost his kid.
Everybody hates him.
But he's a, he wants to do right.
But he's also the, he's an alpha.
Yes. And there were, and they weren't afraid to show an alpha in this movie for once.
Well everybody made fun of him every two seconds.
That's why.
Right.
But that's why you and I like him though, regardless of the fucking-
Well, yeah, maybe, but I also like how flawed he is.
And I was like, I want to see him redeem himself.
Like I want to see him turn this around and become, dare I say Captain America
again would be awesome. Like that's a character arc I love.
I don't think Disney's taking it from Sam Wilson for UQ.
Well, I haven't seen that yet. That's coming on, I'm going to watch that next week.
Streaming?
Yeah, it's coming.
You haven't seen New Dawn or whatever it's called, New World?
No, I haven't seen it yet.
It's like I said, it wasn't good, but it wasn't bad.
It was just kind of milk toast and kind of middle of the road.
That's what I kept hearing.
So yeah, there's nothing in it that makes you, that wows you or you go like, whoa,
I haven't seen that before.
It's just kind of like, it's a head scratcher because the plot is from another movie that you should probably
watch before you watch this movie.
The Hulk one.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So that's a real head scratcher why they tied it so closely to a movie that's over 15 years
old if not more.
It seems like the movie that got released wasn't the movie they originally intended
to make.
Right.
They had a whole version of it and they're like, this fucking sucks.
We got to chop it up and redo it.
So Disney's been doing that a lot.
Going back and chopping it to pieces to try to make it.
Yeah.
What else did they do then?
Daredevil season two or born again.
I kind of, I kind of never got past the third episode with that.
You didn't finish it?
I didn't finish it.
Oh, you should finish it.
Yeah?
Yeah, they get it, like I said, they course correct.
Okay.
And they make Daredevil violent.
Oh, he gets back to it?
And he's back to beating ass.
Well, I heard like one episode's like a comedy in a bank
and you're like, what is going on?
Yeah, there is, but it's kind of like,
it has nothing to do with the overall story.
It's a standalone episode
that nothing moves forward in this storyline.
That was, could be fun.
Yeah, it's done right.
It is.
I think it is kind of like a district.
It just shows he gets to show off as Matt Murdock, all his, all his powers.
Right.
And it's, it's kind of like showing off how cool it is to be, have these
powers and what you can do and how you can get out
of things out of them putting the cops on.
That sounds fun.
It is.
I know I'm going to watch it.
I just haven't had that.
I'm sure you'll like the Punisher's return.
Oh, he comes back after that one scene?
He comes back.
Oh, okay.
Well, that's... I fucking love the Punisher, so that's so for sure.
You'll like it, I think.
I think you'll appreciate though, that they saw the errors in
there and what they had direction.
They were going in there like we can't go in this direction and they
decide to go a different way.
And I, they kind of clean it up and set the stage for the next season.
Did you think with Thunderbolts, like, it was a little, wasn't it like the
Russian guy, how great was Hopper or whatever, you know, champs, all right.
He was great. Weren't there like the Russian guy, how great was Hopper or whatever, you know, champs, all right, he was great.
Weren't there like, it was him was a captain America takeoff.
John Walker was a captain America takeoff and Bucky was a captain America.
I'm like, wow, there are basically three versions of captain America in this.
Like, that was pretty interesting.
Did you, did you wish there was another character on the team rather than the characters they chose
because that ghost character, I didn't even remember.
I liked her in the movie though.
I liked her in the movie.
I liked her in the movie, but I was like, I don't remember this character.
I saw it with my daughter and I was like, she's like, who are these people?
And I'm like, I don't even remember some of these people.
Second Ant-Man movie, right?
And you're the guy like to go to.
Yeah.
But you know, these movies come out years ago,
and I think that Disney has a high expectation of memory.
They expect you to remember a lot of these characters
and their nuances and their motivations.
And I'm like, I don't remember it was so long ago
that it was an Ant-Man, right?
A second Ant-Man movie, yeah.
How long ago was that?
I mean, the third one came out four years ago
at this point, so I don't know.
But I liked her character.
I thought they did a good job with her and stuff like that.
I liked it.
I would have thought though that maybe Shang-Chi
may have been more high profile.
I think they're trying to save Shang-Chi for another swing.
Yeah.
I saw Stranger things on Broadway.
Oh, was I right?
Fuck, that was cool.
When the battleship, that the Philadelphia
experiment, dude, they pull off shit on stage.
That's like pretty fucking cool.
Yeah.
Like, yeah, like a battleship, just the lights go off and they come on and they're
in like the under, like the battleships on the, it's like nuts.
Yeah.
What they're doing with practical effects, it has to be applauded.
Yeah.
I mean, practical effects that's not on camera.
Right.
Just for an audience.
It's, it's impressive.
I mean, the lights go off for a second and when it comes on, there's
a battleship on the stage, like it's, it's pretty nuts.
And then the, that thing comes out over the audience.
Yeah.
Like that fucking.
A big monster.
Like monster thing.
It comes out and it just looks over the audience and like, it feels like.
How good was the kid who played Vecna?
Vecna was great.
All the kids.
How about that kid though?
I mean, that's the first thing he's ever done.
He's going to win an award.
He's great.
I mean, I don't know how every night this kid's playing the guy who's turning into like
Vecna and physically he's throwing his body all over.
Every time he gets possessed, I I'm like I throw my neck
I thought the cat could you be his understudy right
show I got a good if you shave it is a fucking physical play but I was not
prepared for how much of a comedy it is. Like all those stuff with the kids in high school with the play, like there's a lot of humor in this
show. Hopper and Joyce and Bob Newby as a character as a kid.
Oh, Bob is?
And I thought they all fucking nailed it. The kid who played Joyce, she was awesome,
man. Like she did like a Winona Ryder, young Winona Ryder impersonation type of thing.
I'm ashamed to admit though that I didn't realize that was Hopper and her until the end.
Get out of here.
I didn't realize it until the end.
How's that possible?
I think I was just too, my jaw was on the, on the fucking floor so often that I,
like I was in a daze.
It would have made the place so much more enjoyable knowing that you were watching them.
I thought, I was like, oh, how cool that they're playing the characters as Junior.
I had no idea that that was Hopper and, uh, Renona wire, but when it hit me,
yeah, it was like, it was like a religious experience.
That's how it felt the whole time.
It was so good.
It was, it was really good.
It was really good.
And, uh, you know, I would say, go see it if you get a chance.
Yeah, I'd go see.
Oh yeah.
I go see it.
Yeah.
It is so impressive. Yeah. It's really good.. Oh yeah. I'd go see it. Yeah. It is so impressive.
Yeah.
It's really good.
No songs.
I really like the show.
The director just said no songs.
But I love how they, like I said, how they
take the formula of like how 80 songs were so
important to the show, the Netflix show.
50 songs were so important to this play.
Oh, that's pretty cool.
Yeah.
They kind of incorporated that formula of like songs are important. Oh, that's pretty cool. Yeah. They kind of incorporated that formula of like songs are important.
Oh, that's pretty cool.
I didn't even notice.
See, I didn't notice that.
I said, go back again with you, buddy.
We'll go again.
And the guy, my buddy that I went with, he was, um, there's so much smoke
effects in this show, like the theater, he was just smoking weed the whole time.
Every time the smoke came out, he pulled out his vape.
I was like, that is balls. I don't want to do that.
That's dangerous, right? You can go on a bad trip and you're seeing all that weird shit
and then you're smoking your hupa, your hula, what's it called? Your huka.
He brought a huka with him.
He can have a fucking bad trip.
He wasn't having a bad trip. He was enjoying himself. But yeah, I really liked it. I thought
they did a great job.
Yeah, pop culture has been good lately.
Getting back to good. Jurassic Park's looking all right.
Yeah, I mean Superman looks okay. I'm a little worried about it, but you're not worried.
I think it's going to be good.
What don't you like?
That trailer, what don't you like?
I don't know if I like Lois and I don't know if I, I really have to like fall in
love with this guy because I haven't fallen in love with this Superman yet.
I really haven't yet.
He hasn't won me over just on the trailers, which.
I thought he did kind of where he was like eyes up here, like that one shot where he got to be
like personable and like, like he sold it for me. I was like, ah, maybe that's the sort of superman
he's doing. And when he was arguing with Lois in the trailer, I don't know, I like the words.
I'm worried that there's too many characters again. I'm worried that there's too many
superheroes that they're gonna have to introduce and it's going to take away from his first movie.
Depends.
I have concerns. It's the guy who made Guardians of the Galaxy work. So it's like if take away from his first movie. It depends. I have concerns.
It's the guy who made Guardians of the Galaxy work.
So it's like if anybody can make a group work, I'm with that guy.
In Mission Impossible, you're excited for that?
You know, I still haven't seen the last one.
No, you should not admit that.
I'm like.
I should actually.
He said the same thing to me.
He's like, you didn't see the fucking last one?
I was like, no.
It's crazy.
Yeah, he says it's great.
What are you doing?
That you can't fucking give Tom
two, three hours?
Talking Rocky Horror.
I'll put on my fishnet some once you're on your.
I'm gonna watch it, I'm gonna watch it.
It's the son of an Eno.
Yeah, right.
Yeah, I do want to see it though, I'm pretty excited.
Yeah, I'm excited for it too.
I think it's probably the last one.
Yeah, you think so?
I think so, I don't know if he's.
Time to reboot this.
I think he might be on the other side
of being an Ethan Hunt. He's starting to look older,
which you've never seen with him before. He is, which is understandable. He is not
a young man. Sure, yeah. So I mean, it's not taking a shot at him. I have utmost respect for
Tom Cruise and what he does and all the fucking daredevil shit he does, but-
Yeah. Maybe it's time for a younger guy to fill the Ethan Hunt role.
I don't know.
I saw him on a – I might have said this already, but I saw him on a little clip and he was
on a motorcycle with a parachute.
Yeah, that was from the last movie.
Is that from before?
No.
Oh, God.
That's not –
This is eight now, right?
Yeah, I was going to say.
It has to be seven.
Oh, I thought this was the fifth one that was coming out.
This is the seventh one?
No, this is the eighth.
I'm going to get hate emails.
Hey, both of you guys.
Oh, my God. Take the heat off me, thank God. The two posers are
on the pod.
But I saw the behind the scenes footage.
He did it.
And not only did he do it.
He did it like 12 times.
Yeah, he was like the first time he was like, it's not good enough. He's like, I think
I should let go of the motorcycle a little sooner. And then yeah, he does it like fucking
five more times.
Nuts. Yeah. This is why it's hard to convince him that he's not powered by an alien and living in a
volcano.
I would think so.
This is why you can't talk to the man. You can't tell him he's not because he's able to do all this
shit.
Yeah. He's like, well, give me some reasons. I'll get back to you, Tom.
What are you seeing that I'm not seeing?
Yeah.
What are you seeing that I'm not seeing? Yeah.
Tom Cruise, he really won everybody back, right?
There were a few years where he was like a bit of a punchline, but.
Yeah.
It was the whole thing about the anti, uh, depression with, uh, post-partial stuff.
Yeah.
He learned to keep his mouth shut about that and just keep making movies and
people like Tom Cruise, the last movie star.
Yeah.
You live and you learn.
He read those emails.
He read those emails.
And he fucking internalized them.
You're right.
Yeah.
And I see if he hadn't read them, he might just keep on going on.
Yeah, he might be.
He may still be jumping around like a fucking gibbon on couches and shit, doing interviews,
going off topic big time.
It's funny like that couch, Gittem's got it up right now, him jumping on the couch.
That could have easily, in public opinion, gone the other way.
People could have been like, oh wow, man, he's really fucking excited.
How cool is that?
He's a human, he's showing his, you know what I mean?
Like you never know.
Well, he just wants to show off the fucking, he's got the ability to, from a sitting position,
jump, which is not easy to do.
It looks like it's easy.
It looks like it's effortlessly, go ahead, get him.
Go ahead, show us how you jump from a sitting position into your chair right now.
You got the same shirt on as Tom Cruise right now, it looks like.
You're dressed the same.
It is corny.
Which well-known, was it Rosie or Ellen who used to constantly, I think it was Rosie O'Donnell,
who used to constantly pretend you had a crush on Tom Cruise? Oh, Rosie O'Donnell. It was Rosie O'Donnell, who used to constantly pretend she had a crush on Tom Cruise.
Oh, Rosie O'Donnell.
It was Rosie O'Donnell, right?
I just kind of-
Why is she pretending though?
How do you know she didn't?
She's a dyed in the wool lesbian, man.
Was this before she came out?
It might have been.
So she was trying to play the role.
You can't get a crush on a dude?
Nope.
Like a non-sexual crush.
You can't do that. Oh, a non-sexual, like a non-sexual crush.
You can't do that.
Oh, a non-sexual one?
Oh yeah, I got plenty.
And my Reacher's my current one.
There you go.
So, you know, you wouldn't say Reacher's a cutie patootie?
Wow, that's a nice poll.
That's a very nice poll.
I had a question for you guys regarding the Patreon. I have a dilemma.
Not a dilemma, I have a decision to make.
So I'm good.
Did this thing where I created this, I was envisioning a full month of Jimmy the Hair Guy centric programming.
Okay.
Four straight weeks and it was Jimmy the Hair Guy's.
What are you going on vacation or something?
No, I mean, we're all in them, but it's called alternate hair story.
Okay.
And he becomes the star of shows that are already on Patreon.
So the all new Sunday Jeff show, it's the all new Jimmy the Hair Guy show.
Instead of it's all about Frank, it's all about Jimmy.
And he just, so it's a fake alternate history, hair story.
I thought that was clever though.
Nice.
I copyright that too.
Get on that website. Um, should I though, in your opinion, do four straight weeks or should I
stagger them once a month for four months?
Is four weeks in a row too much, Jimmy?
This is a business decision.
I'm just curious.
You can be honest.
If somebody's not into Jimmy and they're like four weeks of this,
it's real easy to cancel.
Okay.
So, so once a month for four straight months. I think so. I think that's better.
Brian, what do you think?
Yeah, I agree with that.
You agree with that?
I agree with that sentiment. Yeah. I think, I mean, they get tired of us in every episode.
So like Jimmy-
Is Jimmy drawing a bath right now? Getting a sharp razor when hearing this?
He might be. Well, no. I mean, he's still on. He's still on.
Yeah, he's still doing the content, he's still doing the content.
He's still doing the content. It's not a Jimmy month.
You guys are basically saying that you fear the subscriptions will-
Jimmy overload.
It's not really about Jimmy. It's just about people's tastes in general. If that's not their
taste, you don't want to give any reason to-
Right. But I could do four straight weeks of Sunday Jeff material.
Come on, man. That's Sunday do four straight weeks of Sunday Jeff material. And you know, come on man.
That's Sunday Jeff.
That's like, I know, I know.
Proven entity.
Right there.
Okay.
That's all right.
There's a difference.
Okay.
It's a big difference here.
I don't think I can do four weeks of the row.
Oh, fuck.
Yeah.
All people want is I buy comics.
Oh really?
Yeah.
All they want is like, I would sign up to the highest tier if they do I buy comics
once a month.
Oh, wow.
I'm still waiting on Fool Killer.
I have all my material ready.
You read it?
He came to see Mission Impossible.
That's true.
You think he's gonna read 10 issues of Fool Killer?
No, I've read Fool Killer in the past.
I'll reread it.
And we got The Punisher one to do too.
I mean, I think we should stick to,
if we're gonna do iBuy comics, just single issues.
It's a lot easier, just read one issue
and then we do an episode. Sure.
Or characters.
Or characters. Or characters.
Yeah, you don't have to even do like.
Yeah. Make it easier for BQ, not harder.
Right.
Well, I read that. I mean, I still read comics every week, so I'm just-
I know, but then you're making it harder on me and Brian. I was like, we gotta read that
book. That crap you're reading.
This is why you get angry emails.
Is that why?
Trash and kill.
Yeah, they're coming at me.
I just lost all my possessions in a fucking-
Well, you didn't create it.
You're just buying it.
Get them owns more of your stuff now than you do.
My precious memories.
Yeah.
Okay.
So stagger the Jimmy the Hair guys.
Okay.
All right.
Yeah.
Good to know.
That's what I'll do.
So the-
Yeah.
So I'm going to go ahead and do that. I'm going to go ahead and do that. I'm going to go ahead and do that. I'm going to go ahead and do that. I'm So stagger the Jimmy the Hair guys.
Okay.
All right.
Good to know.
So I'll start it in June, the first episode of alternate hairstery.
Got that website?
Sounds good.
Alternate hairstery?
Okay, Good. Four, fighting his alternate history.
I wanted to thank Frank very quickly.
Five.
Frank five. Yes.
He drove, uh, he took his DeLorean all the way down from New York, uh,
trailered it in the rain, the pouring rain down to my place and brought Sage to the prom
and it-
Get out of here.
Yeah.
Oh, wow.
I thought it was like really above and beyond.
Should we take away that this was supposed to be Lindsay Dixon's?
I think she has until the end of the year.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Every episode was dedicated to her because she gave a kidney to Chuck's mom.
Oh, wow.
Okay. We said that in perpetuity that all the episodes going forward will be dedicated to her because she gave a kidney to Chuck's mom. Oh, wow. Okay. We said that in perpetuity that all the episodes going forward will be dedicated to her.
This year?
Yeah. I mean, Frank V, DeLorean, Rain. Rain, no.
Rain.
I mean, Trellis.
Sunny skies, I'd be like, no.
Right. He was on the ground, unchaining the car.
Wow. And he's like, he's got a the, the, the, uh, the car.
And he's like, he's got a white shirt on.
It's all muddy and shit, you know.
Gotta give him the episode.
She only gets one week.
What'd she got next week again?
I wasn't involved in any of that.
Nobody asked me.
Well, you were in England.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You know, we called you, you didn't answer.
Yeah.
I tried to call you, but it went right to voicemail.
We were going to ask you, should we, should we do four straight weeks of Jimmy and should we dedicate
every episode going forward to Lindsay for donating a kidney?
I mean, it's pretty big donating a kidney.
I can't imagine you would have been like, nah.
Not in the moment, but now we're moved to it. Wait, so the woman that gave the kidney
wasn't an aunt.
Yeah, she was.
Oh yeah.
Oh, get out of here.
Yeah.
Oh no, we gotta give it to her then. Yeah. Wow.
We did. We already did. Wait, she just, but I mean,
this episode, we can't give it to Frank. Oh, can't give it to Frank?
No. All right, all right. So an aunt heard about Chuck's mother
and gave her kidney to a complete- No, she used to date Chuck. And then they
broke up and they became really good friends. Oh, is this this girl he used to bring around?
Remember when we first met Chuck, he was dating that girl. I don't
remember. Not the one with the blonde hair. Yeah, there she is. That's Lindsay right there.
How sweet of her.
And it's funny, Marybeth brought it up. She goes, you know, everybody asks how Lindsay's doing.
Nobody asks how Chuck's mom's doing.
I asked.
Oh, did you?
Yeah, we asked.
Oh man, that's amazing. I mean, Jesus, man, that's-
It's crazy, isn't it?
What more is there than that? You're giving up parts of your body to your friend's mother.
Now, each of their significant others, that's tough, right?
Because how do you top that if you're a significant other?
Your former girlfriend saved your mother's life.
Right.
This is just the elephant in the room.
I know Trump probably doesn't want me saying this, but this is all I'm thinking about.
Your ex is literally a part of your mom. Yes. Yeah. Shares DNA now. I don't know if Trump probably doesn't want me saying this, but this is all I'm thinking about.
Like your ex is literally a part of your mom.
Yes.
Yeah.
Shares DNA now.
Dude, I would have to set up some like fucking fake kidnappings and like save the day, like
false flag shit to try to make myself look great.
To make myself get like, get on the same level as her now.
Hire some shady guys to come down to Hazlitt and do a carjacking where I just show up and
I beat their asses.
I mean, I wish you would do it.
Well, no, but I mean, obviously the punches are like, it doesn't even look like I could
act so bad as Batman or Robin.
You're 66, shit. Love it. I mean, I would be happy with you.
But yeah, how do you kind of-
It's just something about that person. I don't know.
Does it play a factor? Does it jumble around in your head? If you're the new person-
If you're Chuck's new girl.
Yeah. Jumble around your in your head. So if you're the if you're the new person your Chuck's new girl Yeah, it would be like if a girl if I was dating a girl and and and while I was dating her ex
Stood up and gave a kidney to her mom. I might be like
How soon after this can I break up with her
How soon after this can I break up with her? Is there anybody, there are people you would give a kidney to, obviously, I think, right?
Oh, of course.
Like, you know, if my mom needed a kidney, my sister needed a kidney.
Not your ex's mom.
You wouldn't.
I have to be honest.
That would be a very tough sell to be like, tell my wife that yeah, like I'm
giving a kidney to a former lover. Oh yeah, to their mom. Yeah. Yeah. But that is like,
that's why she's deserves every kudos, every fucking, every. Yeah. That's an, that's a
hero. That's a hero. Like I told Brian, like we do a fucking couple of fucking benefit pods.
We think we're fucking, we think we're special.
We think we're good people, but that's, that is nothing.
Should I put my cape away?
Yeah, you should.
It was fucking absolutely gross that you fucking continue to wear
it this many weeks later.
I'm not around Lindsay.
So I figured, you know, but that would complain. But that is, um, insane, like respect and just, you, it's beyond words, like how,
how, what, what a human being would do for, you know, for another human being.
Like I would be like Larry David and Curb Your Enthusiasm just praying that my
blood type didn't match or something was going
wrong. He was supposed to give a kidney to Richard Lewis and he fucking pussy that wouldn't do it.
That's crazy.
And then we're like, will Chuck be upset? I hope he's not upset we're saying this.
No.
He's not making his life hell at home, hopefully.
I mean, what did he do? Really, I mean, what did he do?
Well, I don't know if it's-
Now it's in her head.
Is his girlfriend an IJ listener or a TSD listener?
She was TSD.
Oh, she might listen to this then.
Oh, she's probably going to listen to this.
She's probably sitting in the car next to him right now listening to him.
You have nothing to prove, right? Reassure her, Q.
I will say this. We've known Chuck many years now and I've never seen him this happy. He
is fucking-
He's over the seen him this happy. He is fucking deep in love
with this girl. He won't stop talking about her. I'm very, very happy. She moved to Staten
Island now with Chuck and I think it's a real love story.
Get rid of any of those thoughts out of your head, if you even had them.
I don't think there's someone love. I don't think those thoughts even came up.
Yeah, you're right. I shouldn't even brought it up.
It is funny though. It would be nice or it'd be funny if Natalie was like,
no, just like put her foot down. That's an ex Chuck.
Keep looking for a kidney, Charles.
Charles.
Okay, one more thing.
If you got time, Q.
Yeah, I got time.
My only plan was to go to the storage unit and clear it out.
No.
I haven't thought about that thing in fucking a while.
Oh man, I'm bummed.
I wish that we hadn't brought it up, but you would have found out though.
I'm totally fine.
I don't care at all.
All right.
You didn't, your eyes betrayed that though.
You look like you were kind of.
Well, I just didn't know what was going on.
You know, I'm like, well, what happened?
But, uh, so you signed that stuff, right?
Yeah, you got it.
New York's distinct accent.
The one that brought us Joe Pesci's defensive funny how,
and Fran Drescher's thick, oh Mr. Sheffield, is rubbing a lot of Americans the wrong way.
Really?
Nearly 60% of Americans say they find the New York accent annoying. According to a new survey
by Podcastle, an AI voice platform, and it's not just outsiders that feel that way,
45% of New Yorkers agree that their own accent is grading.
Now do you find Q's accent anything?
It's endearing.
I think so too.
Yeah.
I totally agree.
Like I like his accent.
I, yeah.
In fact, I like the whole Staten Island accent.
If he got rid of it, it wouldn't be, it wouldn't be as fun to do this podcast.
Like if all of a sudden he spoke like Hugh Grant or something.
Coming back from England.
Yeah, it says only 10% of Americans say they trust someone with a New York accent.
In contrast, folks with a Southern drawl were deemed 256% more trustworthy
and 232% more
appealing than New Yorkers.
Now, I don't know what these percentages mean, but yeah, it seems a lot of people don't like
your accent, Q.
People in general don't like my accent or just the New York accent?
The New York, yeah, not yours particularly, but yeah, the New York accent, but they're
talking like Staten Island, Queens, Bronx, you know, it's like, they're all kind of a little different, right?
They're a little different here and there.
Yeah.
But it's, you know, a general thing, but I, you know, what are you going to do?
They don't trust me.
Some of the, see, I disagree with this.
Some of the features that are traditionally associated with New York City English are diminishing.
What's being lost is the final R. You get in the car and you go to the bar.
It's now car and bar.
See, I thought you guys added R's to stuff.
We add R's to things that don't need them and take it off
from the things that happen.
Okay.
Yeah.
Con bar.
Like elevator.
Elevator.
Lobster.
Red lobster.
Red lobster.
Yeah.
Yeah.
All right.
I don't even know I'm doing it.
It's funny because like people in England, they're like, that fucking
accent's thick and I'm like, I don't, I don't even know I'm doing it. It's funny because like people in England, they're like, that fucking accent's thick. And I'm like, I don't even know what you're talking about.
Still some say the sound of New York is the sound of home.
These are New Yorkers.
None of us as New Yorkers really want to sound like we're from somewhere else.
Yeah.
The New Yorkers are particularly proud of being from New York.
A lot of them.
Fucking greatest place.
Why wouldn't we?
Yeah.
I mean, you got a lot of stuff there.
That's for sure.
A lot of people. I think you you got a lot of stuff there. That's for sure. A lot of people.
I think you tend to gloss over the bad though. Traffic.
That's traffic in Jersey.
Not like New York.
Not, yeah. Staten Island traffic's at like, even today, you come in here, you were like, yeah.
Look, I don't think traffic's great. I'm not sticking with traffic, but I mean,
it's New York City.
Crime. New York City crime.
Crazy.
Yeah, it's because you have 9 million people living around each other.
Yeah, you don't really hear about random punchings or people getting set on fire in the New Jersey
suburbs.
Yeah, or fucking dead people on the fucking subway.
I'm sure. Well, that guy who did it wasn't a New Yorker.
Was he from Jersey?
No, he was from like fucking, wasn't he illegal?
Yeah, I think he was here illegally. Oh, you're going to say that if he lives in New York, he Was he from Jersey? No, he's from like fucking, was he illegal?
Yeah, I think he was here illegally.
Oh, you're going to say that if he lives in New York, he's not a New Yorker?
No, of course not. You can't just show up in New York and be like,
I'm a New Yorker now, let me rape that corpse.
That's a new rap song.
Yeah, you know, it's like, you know, you got to earn it a little bit.
Yeah, you can't like even Key West, you can't go down there and be like, I'm a conk just
because I moved here.
Of course not.
Well, how long does he have to live in New York before he becomes a New Yorker in your
eyes?
20 years.
10 isn't, you know, if I'm a New Yorker.
I'm not interested in your 10 years.
Okay. Yeah, 20 years. 20 years New Yorker? I'm not interested in your 10 years.
Okay. Yeah, 20 years.
20 years is the limit, huh?
I don't know.
Speaking of shut up, it's like, no, I don't have a real opinion on it.
