So four million bucks.

Four and a half million bucks.
Is Q the new hero?
Out with Lindsay and with Q. I'm looking at this guy and I go, am I falling in love right now?
He turned me on to bathing.
Really?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. He turned me on to bathing. Really? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He turned me on to the...
That sounds good.
Fuck, I'd go away for two weeks.
I don't even know where or what I'm walking into.
Tell them, Steve, Dave.
Hello and welcome to this week's edition of Tell them, Steve, Dave.
Full house today.
We got BQ.
Hello.
We got Walt.
Hello.
We got Giddim.
Howdy, y'all.
And we got Frank Five.
Hello.
Frank Five.
I was excited to come in and see him.
Thank you.
Giddim, I have a new rule for Giddim.
I told him I want him to have a mic.
Even if he doesn't use it, it's better for him to have it and not use it than to not
have it and fucking try to hear him.
I was, when I was cutting out this past week, but the week before when I was cutting the show, you can't hear what the fuck he's
saying.
Yeah, kind of. I thought the same thing for many, many, many weeks, but.
Yeah, you're right. I should have voiced it, man.
I thought I did.
Get him.
Oh, boy. What do we got this week? Well, we got to talk about Q.
Oh, God.
We got to talk about these charity events.
What's the matter?
I submit that these are not charity events. These are many vacations.
Vacations? I'm in fucking hospitals visiting sick kids.
I look on Instagram.
Kids dying, fucking talking to their parents, crying, hugging them. You think that's a vacation?
I looked, well, it depends.
I've been on worse.
Yeah.
I was looking on Instagram.
I look at Q's.
I look at Adam Ray, another guy I'm a fan of.
I didn't post this.
I saw one sick kid.
One sick kid the whole time.
But if Q is really doing what he says he's doing. If he is getting blottled afterwards, it's
because it's emotional toll though.
You think like a light PTSD.
I wasn't a little blottled.
Not blottled, but even if you're just like having a drink just to like kind of like max
out and like that's a stressful day.
It's intense. It was like three hours of going from hospital room to hospital room
and just kids that are dying, you know what I mean?
And you're like, oh shit, I thought I had problems. That's right.
Yeah.
You know.
That's sobering.
Yeah.
It's a lot. But it's good. But why am I getting sandbagged with this?
I don't know. I just saw you having a lot of fun there.
At the hospital?
I saw you, especially not at the hospital. Well, he was smiling pretty big at the hospital,
but you got like Adam Ray was driving and you, Murr and Sauer in the back of a car.
That's what I'm like when I can see there's certain smiles you have where I'm like, this
motherfucker is happy.
No, not at all.
That's Adam Ray being like, I have a show tonight.
There's still some tickets left.
Can we do a commercial?
Would you guys mind?
Yeah, I'm happy to help my friend, but like, yeah.
A lot of high drinks it seemed.
No high drinks.
No high drinks. I did, I was thinking about you all. I got of high drinks it seemed. No high drinks. No high drinks.
I did.
I was thinking about you all.
I got to meet Travis Kelsey, the Kelsey brothers.
I got to spend time with them.
Really the tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs and the former center for the Philadelphia
Eagles.
I'm just going to met.
Did you meet his girlfriend?
No.
Did you ask about her?
No, but he did just talk about his girlfriend.
It was like, I know who you're talking about.
I think I know how you feel about Tom Brady.
How so?
He is, quite frankly, he might be the best looking dude I've ever seen in person.
He does not come across in pictures like he does in real life
You're like, holy shit. This guy is fucking gorgeous man and funny and
Talented and tall with these piercing blue eyes. It happened
Huh? You're big your big NFL fan now
Yeah, he's just there's like a presence about him that I was like, fuck, man, now I know
how Walt feels about Tom Brady.
And that's all, he didn't even have to perform
in front of you, you just fell in love with him
just being in the same room with him.
Just talking, I talked to him for like a half hour
or something like that, and yeah, just the force of him
as a person, I was like, because I'm not a football guy.
Right, do you say that? Like, I'm not a football guy.
No, because we didn't talk about football. We just, you know, talk about other things.
What's, and I, this is crazy. I can't remember his girlfriend's name.
Taylor Swift.
Okay. Yes. I really, wow. I don't know if that's-
She's an up and comer.
I don't know if that's a sign of age or I should be really concerned right now.
But yeah, I couldn't remember her name.
Look at this guy and I go, am I falling in love right now?
Am I a wolf?
Well, you – but let's be fair though.
I never fell in love at Tom Brady Christmas.
Look, it was the fucking rings that fucking got my eye that got my heart.
You weren't remiss and talk about how fucking handsome
Revisionist history
Did you say like I got a friend who loves Tom Brady you say that
All never even came I got to my sports just be like he thinks he's really good looking. No, no.
But I think you're better looking.
Yeah, you're definitely better looking.
It's all, it's so handsome. It was something, sometimes I get about it.
The other Kelsey brother has a wife who does the podcast with them, right? Don't they
do it? Do they still do it?
Yeah, Jason. Jason. Yeah, they have a very successful media career.
He's a funny guy. Like you see why they're- They're characters. You see why they're like, yeah, they have a very successful media career. He's a funny guy.
You see why they're-
They're characters.
You see why they're becoming what they are.
They're successful podcasters.
Yeah, and I wasn't even gonna tell the story.
I wasn't gonna tell it on the air
because who wants to get accused of the name dropping,
but since you brought it up,
I was like, I guess there's pictures of us
hanging out out there.
So yeah, I was like, fuck man, this guy's awesome.
You look a little bit like Jason.
I'm starstruck, I'm telling you.
No, no, you look a little bit like him.
I'm in love.
But you look like his brother though, Jason though.
We took a few pictures.
Yeah, I was told, yeah, except for the fact that he's in shape yelling and fucking jacked.
We have a beard.
I think that I could see you putting a football between your legs and handing it to a quarterback.
I can see you putting a football between my legs now too.
Slowly.
Hi.
Kansas City fan all the way now.
Chiefs man now.
Fuck the New York teams.
They play in Jersey.
That's right.
I've been saying that since the fucking moment this podcast began.
You have.
And finally coming around. It only took dreamy Kelsey brothers to turn you.
How does that happen, man? You get those kind of genetics. What are those other brothers
that you like that are funny?
Oh, the Sklar brothers?
No. Were they on the Giants maybe? Oh, the Manning brothers. The Manning're on the, were they on the Giants maybe?
Oh, the Manning Brothers.
The Manning Brothers, yeah, that's who I like.
Those guys again.
I've seen them in commercials, they're funny.
Yeah, they have really good senses of humor and they are conquering the medium of podcasting.
Them too?
Yeah, them too. Yeah, everybody's conquering it.
Except us.
Well, we got a it. Except us.
Well, we got a weekend devoted to us.
That is true.
There is a weekend going on right now as we speak.
We've been doing 15 fucking years, man.
Look what you're talking about.
Let's see them hang on.
Yeah, that's true.
Let's see how they're long-term.
Are there any other podcasts out there that have this kind of listener base that will
come and do meetups?
Are there?
Oh, there are.
I thought we were the only ones. Well you got Legion of Skanks,
they throw Skankfest every year,
which is a huge comedy fest.
But is it run by the podcast?
This is all natural, this is all grassroots.
They did it themselves, they came out
and are here to celebrate us.
I'm sure there are some, but none leap to mind.
We're the only ones, bro.
Yeah, all right.
I'm all wrong with that.
We're the only ones. Yeah, all right. I'm all wrong with that. We're the only ones.
Yeah, all right.
I'm all wrong with that.
Right on.
And it's happening today.
As we speak.
We're having a special surprise Q&A.
Oh, they don't know we're coming?
They don't know that you're, well,
they don't know you're coming.
You are the big fuck of Kahuna tonight.
I just saw Maxwell.
I know, he's gonna tell everybody.
Yeah, he loves that. Hey! I haven't seen him in so long. That's who I tonight. I just saw Maxwell. I know, he's gonna tell everybody. Yeah, he loves it.
Hey!
I haven't seen him in so long.
I was like, Maxwell!
Yeah, I kept it a secret.
Yeah, it was good to see him.
Still no sleeves on them shirts.
No, it's Maxwell, baby.
No, I was keeping it real.
I love it.
They're really smooth with their life.
It was good to see Maxwell, that was great.
I walked in, I was like happy.
He's having an amazing second act, Maxwell.
Yeah, he's telling me his life has never been better.
It was really heartwarming to hear, like all kidding aside.
I'm like, I'm not kidding.
It was true.
You could just tell he's so proud of himself
and he's so happy with his life at this moment.
Oh, that makes me so happy.
It really is.
It is.
It's kind of like, not that he was in a bad place
when he first met him, but like. Oh, yes, he was. Oh, not that he was in a bad place when he first met him,
but like.
Oh yes he was.
Oh yes he was.
All right, maybe he was, but he has really become an upstanding citizen.
He's giving speeches at college graduations and stuff.
He's teaching at the college too.
He's inspiring the youth.
It's a real feel-good story.
Shoeless university. at the college too. He's inspiring the youth. It's a real feel good story.
Shoeless university.
No, I mean you need guys who like walk the walk
and tread the path and came out on the other side
to teach kids.
He really has, yeah.
Maxwell's come a long way from the first time
I met him playing hockey.
That's fantastic.
Him telling me stories about his wild and reckless youth.
Yeah, yeah, whatever fucking backwoods country.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Moonshine running days or whatever.
Yeah.
I love that.
And I think that's, you're right though.
I think it gives young people and old people inspiration that's like, he just did it.
He put his mind to it and he changed his life.
He put in the hard work and he's come through it and now that's, it should be an example
for no matter what age you are.
Forget him.
Forget him.
I mean, you know what?
I want to say this though.
This guy right here, he's my guy again.
Oh, wow.
He's gone for 14 days and the whole thing.
What happened? He has gone from ass hat to asset overnight.
What one thing did he do for you?
He has put in the hard work.
He's built things for productions that look like super professional.
You'll be seeing him and you're going to be like, he's going to knock your socks off
some of the stuff that he's been doing.
Behind the scenes, I come in and he has like cute videos that he's like, I know you're
going to like this video.
And he finds videos that I want to watch.
So he's pampering you.
Yeah.
I see.
I'm talking about today about a lot of other podcasts, like maybe other podcasts don't
have this kind of grassroots that we have.
I also think, I'm not talking about special guests on other podcasts, but regular people
who appear on Mike regularly. Yeah.
There is no one smarter in podcasting. Oh, boy, we're back to this.
Here we go.
Well, I'm serious.
The moon rises, the moon falls, the sun rises.
There is nobody smarter in podcasting. I'm not talking about when you have a special guest like
Tyrone Degrassi.
There you go.
Or whoever these guys, you know, these big w Tyrone Degrassi. There you go.
Or whoever these guys, these bigwigs, those are guys special guests.
I was talking about regular people who appear regularly on a mic on a-
Yeah.
Cast members on a podcast.
Yeah.
Smartest man in podcasting.
What did he do?
Everything I ask him, he's right on.
He's on a fucking amazing role.
Can I get an example?
Give him some examples.
Well, some examples.
Other than the TV shows.
He's found videos that I like,
about old game shows,
like he found a channel that just-
What a genius.
He did a Google search, hit pause.
No, he's come up with ideas to
help elevate things we're working on.
Okay.
Like ideas, it's like, Hey, why don't you do this?
Yeah.
I'm like, Holy shit.
Amazing idea.
I don't want to, I don't want to like, uh,
reveal what his great ideas are.
Sure, sure.
But I'll tell you in one more.
Well, that's pretty cool.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, I have absolutely no, it's like, you
know, the light is switched.
Yeah.
It was flipped.
Where did the switch come from, do you think? What precipitated it?
I think it might've been that last time Q was in the chair over here and I feel like you guys were a little bit too hard on him.
We were.
Were we?
I don't recall. I don't recall what we even talked about.
Ken, were you hard on him?
No, no, you're never too hard on me.
Well, what do we say?
I think you guys went a little too rough on the poor guy.
Yeah, we probably did.
Yes, sure was us.
He was never not our guy.
But I think he took it to heart and he's like, you know what?
So the office is clean in there now? That room is clean? I don't know. But I think he took it to heart and he's like, you know what? I want him.
So the office is cleaned in there now?
That room's cleaned?
It's still a work in progress though.
One thing I've asked for for two years, not there yet.
But there is some progress and that is better than no progress.
That I agree with.
That I agree with.
Nice.
And it'll get there.
When we move out?
It will get there.
Okay, cool. Smartest man in podcasting.
I'm going to stand by that.
All right.
Smarter than Joe Rogan.
Uh, yeah.
I've seen Joe Rogan's some clips.
I don't watch him regularly, but I've seen some clips.
I'm like, what the fuck?
Flat earth?
Is he a flat earth?
I don't know, but he's like all these weird conspiracy theories.
Oh yeah.
He's big in conspiracy theories.
He was a moon denier for a while.
He was a what?
Moon denier. Like then we landed on the moon. yeah, he's big in the conspiracy. He was a moon denier for a while. He was a what?
Moon denier.
A moon denier?
That we landed on the moon.
Okay.
I will put my man up against Joe Rogan in a trivia contest or an IQ contest.
Absolutely.
I don't know if we can make that happen.
I think he would make him look stupid.
Wow.
At the end of the day, yeah.
All right. You think he would make Joe Rogan look At the end of the day, yeah. All right.
You think he would make Joe Rogan look stupid, huh?
Yeah, like, yeah.
A lot of people would say that's not that hard.
Not you though, right?
I wouldn't bet that's because I don't think I've ever listened to a single episode of
it.
Yeah, I've just only seen clips.
Yeah, I don't even know that I've seen.
Well, unless you're ready to commit to four hours of a podcast.
Yeah, he got watched the clips.
I mean, I admire his success.
Oh, yeah.
Jesus Christ. Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Jesus Christ.
You know, he doesn't have that level of success.
No, but he also has never looked stupid on Mike, though.
Not in the past 10 minutes.
You can look at his body of work on TSD, and I want someone to show me where he said something so ridiculous.
All right, not the blind spot.
Can everybody listening not waste their time pulling things that he said that are ridiculous?
I mean Reddit is going, it's a blaze right now.
They turn on extra servers.
Yeah, I stand by it. The smartest man in podcasting.
Nice.
You should get that domain name.
I should get a cell to you for 700 bucks.
It should be a website devoted to you and all your accomplishments.
The things he was right about.
What fucking clips did he pull for you?
He found some old game shows that I'd never seen before.
And it was like, this was a good time.
And then he's proactive though too.
He's like, I get in and he's like, hey, I'm ready to edit this special project I'm working
on.
And it's all ready to go.
I just sit down and then there's a fucking, there's a croissant.
I don't know where a fucking croissant just appears.
Where'd you get that croissant?
Lidl.
Where?
A little Lidl.
Lidl.
It's a grocery store.
It's like an Aldi kind of thing. Oh, okay nice and a cold bottle of water. You don't feel like he's kissing your ass. Oh, you like that
I like that. Yeah, what you needed after all these years
Bottle of water in a croissant bread and water literally Well good I'm glad I'm happy that you look at to see this see this yeah all done by get
them my point is some screen well no these he said we need more green screen I got more
green screen it's up he's ironing it. He's making it. What
are you doing with that special steamer? He's got a steamer. He's steaming the wrinkles
out.
Did you steam it on the wall like that?
Yeah.
So all the artwork behind it?
No.
Wait a second about that.
It just ruins $12,000 worth of artwork.
I held it away as I did it.
Of course you did.
He ain't no dummy.
He knows he can't steam a hug.
Why don't we wait and see what's behind that green screen.
Poor Tom Brady's face is all fribbled up.
What do you do when you're not visiting the sick kids?
Yes.
What's to be done?
Is there a lot of downtime?
There's not a lot of downtime. It is, uh, it is hospital visit Friday morning.
Then there's a, I got the, we, there's a charity softball game at Kansas City
Royals. I saw those pictures. That was fun.
Sal hit a home run.
No way over the-
No, it was softball and you know, it was a, you know, type of thing,
but I was still cool to see my boy hit a home run in there.
Um, so he ran the same basis that George Brett ran. wall and you know, you know, type of thing. But I was still cool to see my boy running there.
So he ran the same basis that George Brett ran.
Well, here's the thing.
The whole infield was brought in.
Okay.
So, you know, he still ran the basis, right?
Yeah, so I had a double.
I was happy.
There you go.
I got home.
But but yeah, he had home run.
I was excited about that.
And, you know, and then you play that play that and then you do, what's Friday night?
I forget what Friday night is.
Then Saturday morning you go back to the hospital and then there's a big show at the T-Mobile
Center where everybody buys tickets and you put on a show.
We did 10 minutes.
Then after that, then there's a wrap-up party.
And then my flight was 6 a.m. the next day, but it raised $4.5 million.
Yeah, I saw that.
That was pretty good.
Crazy.
Good hospital, right?
Yeah, Mercy.
Yeah, it was Mercy.
It was great.
I mean, look, I can't claim it's all the guys that are – it's like Paul Rudd and Jason
Sudeikis and a couple of Heidi Gardner.
So they're the ones that throw it.
Whoever comes and goes is just there helping them.
So those guys raised a lot of money for that.
So four million bucks.
Four and a half.
Four and a half million bucks.
Is Q the new hero out with Lindsay and with Q?
No, no, not at all.
Those guys get all the credit.
Yeah.
But it was cool. It was, it's nice,
you know, and you get to see those guys and everything.
Maybe I'm making a mistake. Is there a Big Lick also?
Maybe there's a, like a side festival that somebody does. Big Slick is what,
Lick, lick, lick, lick.
Oh, wow. I haven't heard a long time.
Nobody will get it.
Nobody will get it. No one should. Yeah. No, I don't know.
But yeah, Big Slick is a big thing.
I guess some wise acres were like, let's do Big Lick and do that.
Right.
Kind of like South by Southwest and then they do the –
Yeah.
Yeah.
Right.
So we got to tap Q as well.
We need his name for this.
Remember we were talking about – what's her name?
Gwyneth Paltrow and her.
But JJ – That didn't come out so nobody knows we were talking about it. her name, Gwyneth Paltrow and her, the JJ.
That didn't come out so nobody knows we were talking about it.
It didn't come out yet.
That was on Bride Tries episode.
Oh, is that Bride Tries?
Yeah.
Okay.
Well, anyway, if you want to hear about that, go to Patreon.
Yeah, in July it's coming out.
I haven't even seen a cut of it yet.
Oh, no?
Yeah.
Okay. But anyway, Sydney Sweeney, who's an actress as well, a lot of people like her.
A lot of people like her.
Oh, I like her very much.
Is making soap out of her bath water.
Wow. Good for her.
They teamed up with Dr. Sasquatch.
Good for her.
Yeah.
And now she's putting out.
So guys, I presume will buy soap made of a bathwater and then use it up.
I guess so.
That's what I'm saying.
Do you think that it turns off the female audience?
They're not interested in that.
It has to be some dudes who are just sweaty and fucking clammy and all greasy and they're
just like, oh.
Their money spends, brother.
Yeah, I know it does.
But that's really the only one that really wants to be caught going up to the Trevor Burrus Yeah, I know it does. But that's really
the only one that really wants to be caught going up to the counter and buying it I think.
Aaron Ross You're online now, bro.
Steve DeWine That's true.
Aaron Ross Aren't those the kind of people you want
to use soap?
Steve DeWine Hey-o, give him Steve Day. I'm going to
tell you. So I'm staring at him, podcasting. See you later, get him.
Trevor Burrus Why do we sell his bathwater? FDA won't approve that.
We're selling anybody's bathwater.
It should be Frank's.
He's the biggest bath taker of us all, right?
That's right.
Yeah, I'm always in the tub.
Love it.
Still.
Still.
Rub-a-dub-dub.
Do you have a big jacuzzi tub or a regular sized tub?
Just regular sized tub.
But I put the bubble bath in it. I bring my iPad in there.
I watch videos.
It's like command center.
Wow.
Yeah, I love it.
Have you ever been scared you're going to drop a device in the water though?
No, I've had it happen.
The dogs come in and knock the iPad.
They don't got to be waterproof by now, right?
I'm using an old iPad.
And I'm sure it's not plugged in, I would hope.
He turned me on to bathing. Really? Yeah, I would hope. He turned me on to bathing.
Really?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He turned me on to the-
That sounds good.
Oh, fuck, can I go away for two weeks?
I don't even know where or what I'm walking into.
It's all different now.
He turned me on to the attributes, the joys of bathing in a bathtub as opposed to taking
a shower.
Okay.
My wife thinks it's weird though.
Well how often are you doing it?
I was doing it every other night for a while
and then she was just like.
And he was letting me know.
Oh yeah?
We get back to the hotel.
I'm in the bath right now, are you?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah. Photo or it didn't happen. Just face talking to each other. I'm terrified I'm gonna drop my am actually, me too. What was that? But I'm terrified I'm going to drop my phone or my iPad though.
What type of tub are you rocking?
Just a regular old bathtub.
Just a bathtub?
Just a bath.
It's all that you do.
What kind of tubs do you have?
Well when I redid my house, I got-
Oh, you put the jets in?
Oh, you got a claw foot tub?
And it has the heated sides.
Oh my god
We gotta get in on this
Like the tiny jacuzzi jets I've lived there
Like oh god, I'm coming up on fucking the eight years not yet. I've used it
Maybe twice would it be weird if we wanted to come?
Take a protest run. Yeah.
Yeah.
It's like acrylic.
It's not like a, like a big porcelain.
No, it's not porcelain.
That's what I'm saying.
It's like an acrylic when it gets out.
Okay.
So it wasn't like that.
It's still good though.
I'd still give it a whirl.
Oh dude, it is nice, but I never use it.
It even has a little feature on top bolt.
Yeah.
That I don't even know if it works.
I never use it, but you put a little cartridge in it, you hit a button and it puts a mist
over the water, scented mist over the water.
Dude.
Never use it.
I'm just like trying to …
I'm just fucking happy if there's not like 17 billion fucking long hairs from my
wife and my daughter all over the place.
I don't want a mist.
I'm just like, oh, there's only like eight or 10 hairs?
Okay, that's fine.
I don't care.
But wow, a mist.
I was wondering about your ambiance. Like, do you set up candles? Do you turn the lights
down low?
No.
Music?
I put music on, yeah. I put some Floyd on.
Oh, yeah?
Dark Side of the Moon.
Get out of here.
Yeah, start for you.
I hate Floyd.
I know, but I've discovered the powers of Pink Floyd taking you someplace other than in that
bath. I'm not in that bathtub, bro.
No?
When I'm listening to Floyd.
Remember I told you I'd play that video game, the space game, and I'd lower the volume and
I'd put on Pink Floyd and just float through space?
Yeah.
It was like, transported.
Yeah, it was awesome.
But wait, let me ask you something, because one of the things that I mainly hate about
the tubs is I could deal with the water getting cold, just refill it with a little hot water,
no problem.
But don't you hate looking at your body in the water?
I just look down and like, oh my God, look at me.
Yeah.
This is what I-
That's why you use the bubbles, right?
Yes, I use the bubbles.
I don't use bubbles.
I just look, I don't care.
On that trail, you just stare at it.
Yeah, what are you gonna do?
20 minutes.
What am I gonna do?
What are you gonna do?
I'm like, this is it?
This is what I was given? And then I just started thinking about the Kelsey brothers and I'm like, look is it? This is what I was given? Then I just started thinking about the Kelsey
brothers and look what they were given. Then it's periscope up!
It would only be poetic if they had small wieners, right? Everything else they got going for
them. No, they don't.
There's not a chance on the planet.
There's not a chance. The guys are fucking giant.
They're adonises.
Oh yeah, they're really tall, right? He's so a chance on the planet. I know. The guy's a fucking giant. They're Adonises.
Oh yeah, they're really tall, right?
They're gods.
He's so, he's like, it's crazy.
He's gotta be almost seven foot, right?
I would not deny, I would not say that that's not true.
But weird, because then I was like, I looked at photos of him on the internet.
He doesn't, he's not, and he's, the photos aren't capturing what he's carrying around.
In terms of like, he's just not good lighting?
His aura.
His aura.
Yeah.
Brady didn't have that problem.
There's no bad pictures of Tom Brady out on the internet.
I didn't say there's bad pictures.
I didn't say that.
I'm saying it doesn't catch his aura.
Yeah.
But I just, yeah, I sit in that tub and I just look at my flaws.
You got to watch video.
Yeah, maybe.
Anything else, yeah.
Maybe you got a thing that sits over the, you know what I mean?
Oh yeah, the little table.
Yeah, and do that.
Yeah.
I'll get a shot.
There's the health benefits.
I'll text you guys.
Let me know, boys.
Get in the tub.
Yeah.
There's the health benefits, too.
What health benefits? Doesn't it lower your blood?
Don't get me started.
Well, you said your back hurt, right?
Take a tub.
Yeah, but there's also, it doesn't-
Loosen your muscles.
The heat and everything brings your,
thins your blood out.
You gotta come try my, well,
it's got the heated, both sides of heat.
I had many fucking dreams of me being in the tub
with like a partner.
The cat's sleeping in sometimes.
So when a couple of days from now, when I show up with a rubber duck in a bathrobe,
you're not going to be weirded out when I just show up at the front door?
I mean this sincerely. I would love for you to come and use that tub. I love it.
That is not many people are getting that invitation. I feel honored and privileged and I will make
sure that I …
I think you should do it.
Yeah. I'll wear my trunks too. I don't want to … That's weird.
I've been in it twice.
I know. But if you ever want to go in it, then you're always going to think that I
was sitting here.
I don't care.
Okay.
I don't care about that one.
Really? You think so? You can't wash a tub out? Yeah, no, but he's still in.
He's like, you know.
He's like, he probably jerked off.
That would be amazing.
Call me in your bathing suit.
We can do a podcast episode with you in the tub.
Three men in a tub?
I don't know if all three of us could fit, but you could be in the tub.
You know what I mean?
If we could set up the mics outside the tub.
I'd do that.
Okay.
I'm going to go.
I'm going to go.
I'm going to go.
I'm going to go.
I'm going to go.
I'm going to go.
I'm going to go.
I'm going to go.
I'm going to go. I'm going to go. I'm going to go. Three men in a tub? I mean, I don't know if all three of us could fit,
but you could be in the tub, you know what I mean?
And we could set up the mics outside the tub.
I'd do that.
Yeah, that would be funny.
You and Frank could come to both of you.
Awesome.
Oh, I would.
Dude, if you guys want to do it, I will do it.
I'll wear trunks if you do it.
Yeah, I'll do it.
Okay, all right.
Let's do it.
Wait a minute.
Fucking amazing.
Wait a minute, of course you'll wear trunks.
What do you mean?
You think that you're gonna go au naturel?
No, no, I'm just making sure it's understood so I get the invite.
I'll be cool.
Oh, that would be great.
We'll see where the move takes us.
That would be a great Patreon episode.
It would be.
It would be.
Uh, fat news? Oh, chicken. Is this about me in my tub?
It's not.
Oh, okay.
Uh, what's her name?
Dank DaMoss.
If you recall her, she was the 500 pound rapper who-
Yes, of course.
Was not allowed to go into a lift because.
She's on a Zempik now?
It was going to ruin the guy's tires and she sued lift and it turns out she lost. And now
she is on Instagram. Well, first off, she said it was discrimination. She maintained that, that she should have won, but now she's on Instagram with a weight
loss journey.
Okay.
Which says to me, she knew she was too fucking fat in the first place.
Otherwise you don't go on a weight loss journey.
She knows.
She knew.
She knew the whole time.
She knew.
No shame.
No, nobody's got shame. No shame. No, nobody's got shame.
No shame.
Well, it's good though.
I hope she gets healthy.
Yeah.
Because that would be inspiring.
Yeah, it would be inspiring if she could get down to a normal weight that she doesn't
have to pull up a couch to sit down on the breakfast club.
I heard there was another rapper who was a big rapper.
She also lost a lot of weight.
Oh, Lizzo.
She was in Star Wars? Yeah.
Lizzo, yeah.
Lizzo's thin now?
I wouldn't say thin, but she's lost a lot of weight.
She's lost a lot of weight, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, people don't like it.
Oh.
Some people don't like it. They did the same thing with Ashley Graham that Sports Illustrated.
I doubt too when she lost weight, people are giving a shit.
Yeah. They're like, oh, you're supposed to be there for us fatties.
That's tough. I understand you want oh, you're supposed to be there for us fatties. That's tough.
I understand you want celebs to look up to that look like you, but come on, man.
Let her get healthy.
It's not fucking healthy no matter what you want to say.
It's not healthy.
Let the girl get healthy.
So what is tonight?
So the curator, and I want to give a big shout out to the curator.
He organized-
The most zen dude I think I've ever met.
So calm at all times.
Really?
Yeah.
He's so relaxed at all times.
I am a little worried about him though.
Really?
Yeah.
Apparently he can't stop chugging Monster.
Oh no.
Really?
Yeah.
That's not good. We got to do an intervention tonight for the curator.
All right, I just saw an article that was this 26 year old,
it was female, it was a fitness influencer,
and she lived about clean as clean can be,
except three Monster energy, or not Monster,
but three energy drinks a day.
She died of a heart attack at 26,
because she was just pounding those things. But the curator is on energy drinks a day. She died of a heart attack at 26. She was just pounding those things. The curator is on energy drinks?
What the fuck?
Well, that's how he's able to be the curator and organize all this shit.
He fucking put on a hell of a weekend for, I don't know, maybe 75 to 100.
I don't know.
Frank told me 100.
But I'm not good at measuring.
Measuring?
Well, I would say a hundred. I'll say, yeah, you're not good at it if you call counting measuring.
It all goes back to the top of it.
But he organized and made it a free event for listeners, TSD listeners to come down
and spend the day at a VFW doing TST trivia.
Then he rented out the Smodcastle Cinemas,
Atlanta Kylans.
How's he paying for that though?
I think he did a-
He did a GoFundMe.
A Go thing for all the people that are coming
and made it still free.
Now you get to go in and you get to watch
a pre-released Patreon video that hasn't been released yet,
so they'll get to see it first.
And then they're going to Collingswood tomorrow.
Oh, cool, man.
Nice.
He did a really awesome job and he deserves a lot of kudos.
Did it all himself.
Great, man.
Giveaways, posters.
Raffles.
Raffles.
Oh, man.
Yeah.
He'd be an asset too.
Yeah.
I almost said asset.
Not to be mistaken.
Asset, yeah.
Yeah.
He's a fucking one of the big backers of TSD for a long time and he has never lost his.
Fervor.
Yeah. It's still like, you know, some would say he's fanatical.
Yeah.
I just say he's just happy.
I don't want to insult him.
You know how fanaticals can get.
Yeah.
Exactly.
Hey, if you've got to be fanatical of something, TSD is the better one, I think.
Better than religion, better than politics, yeah, definitely.
If you're just going to spread in the word of TSD, then it's okay.
Yeah.
Yeah, so we're going to pop in after.
Surprise Q&A.
Surprise Q&A.
That's cool.
With BQ, nobody knew you were coming.
I'd have kept that a secret.
So I think people are going to be very, very happy to see TSD on the stage.
Sweet.
They weren't expecting it.
It's been, what, seven years?
Eight years?
Well, the Gramercy was the last time we went on stage.
All three of us.
Well, you guys are just on stage though in Florida.
Yeah, but I'm talking about the three of us I know almost all the people here were at Q West.
Yeah.
Oh, that's good.
That will make me feel better about slipping out the back.
I got 25 people in my house.
I had a family party the same day.
I left all my cousins and fucking answers in my house.
I think I have to start talking to Q's assistant rather than Q. Q is the most optimistic guy
at the beginning of the week
when you talk to him. What things can you do? I can do this day, this day, this day,
this week we were supposed to do three days and then he texts you, he's like, wait, what
are we doing? How does he agree to a Saturday if he has 25 people at his house? What's
he thinking?
Do you want to get him to be your – No, I'm fucking, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I,
I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I,
I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I,
I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I,
I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I,
I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I,
I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, It's just work and work and work and work. It's killing me. So, but it's events like this that make it fun.
Yeah.
This comes at a good time for me personally.
Every time I blew off my family, I didn't blow off you guys.
And that's true.
You know?
That's true.
But personally, this comes at a good time because, uh, it's nice to have here.
So, cause sometimes it feels like we do this in a vacuum, and the only feedback you hear or see if you
go to some places has been pretty negative.
So it's nice to hear people come in and be like, oh, as long as you keep putting it out,
I'll never stop listening.
I'll die listening to it.
I go to sleep at night listening to it.
I go to work listening to it.
That's nice.
So it came personally at a good time from my mental state of mind.
You're still going on online.
Me?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, I can't shut it down.
I got to answer emails and shit.
Trust me, you can.
I can.
I can.
I got to.
Get the emails to him and then don't ever go online. He's not that much of this guy.
I said to Rupert the other day, I think that's one of the reasons Reddit doesn't bother
me because Reddit is out there somewhere.
Anytime we have an event, whether it's Q West, whether it's Jiggy's comedy thing,
whether it's something like this, everyone's always nice to me.
So it doesn't fucking matter.
The only place people are mean to me is online.
Yeah.
It literally never happens.
You never see it in real life.
So I just stopped going online.
Yeah, we-
Makes life pretty good.
You weren't here last week, so we released a clip show.
Right.
And I thought it would be a good idea to try to let
people who know who listen to TSD who may not be on the Patreon,
hear some of the things that we are doing.
Maybe you think they're funny,
maybe funny enough to go subscribe and oh my God.
It was like I was fucking stepping on kittens with my stilettos and shit.
I posted some horrible horrific shit.
People were just mad saying it was the end of TSD.
They've run out of ideas.
Their time is past.
People are like, I'm embarrassed to listen to TSD.
Don't listen.
Put it in and put on headphones.
Don't listen. I don't know put on headphones. Don't listen.
I don't know.
I don't get it.
I don't know.
What could be embarrassing though?
I just don't listen.
What are you embarrassed about?
It's like out of 15 years now, 639 episodes, not including Patreon, we've had one clip
show.
No, that's not true.
No?
We've had other clip shows? I think we've had three. Have we really?
Yeah.
I don't really remember though, the best of?
Yeah, Declan made one.
Oh, did he?
Yeah, and then I asked him to make one a couple years ago.
It has to be four years ago of Patreon stuff again.
Clip shows are a thing.
Yeah, well, I mean, I guess, you know, for some people-
Q couldn't make it, me and Walt were here.
That's what we fucking did.
Deal with it.
I get it.
I get it.
But it is – they think it's a sign that we're also chasing – I'm not really
chasing bigger numbers or new people.
They're like, they got to do this.
But even if you were, what would be wrong with that?
You know what?
I think new listeners could equal problems, you know?
But I'm just – Is that rain? That's rain, yeah.
Holy shit.
Oh, shit.
I'm just trying to appeal to the people who we already have already who aren't on.
I'm not really looking to branch out and find new listeners because by this point,
it may be too daunting anyway.
That's what it was for.
It wasn't.
But people took it as a sign of like, pull the plug.
They officially have run out of ideas.
They don't know we're back the next week with another episode.
They can pull the plug anytime they want.
It's so easy to pull the plug.
Without letting people know.
You don't have to let them know.
You can't do that, Brian.
You can't do that.
You gotta let people know because, I don't know.
But it was super nice to see –
It's like God rain.
Yeah, that's like terrific.
So many happy faces, just happy to be here.
Like I said, if you do this and you don't hear that kind of feedback, you can think
that everybody thinks that way.
Yeah.
That's not the case, though.
No. You can think that everybody thinks that way. Yeah, and that's not the case though. No, I think
your mental health
Not yours, I think literally everybody's mental health would be improved by not just saying offline
Right agree social media. I don't even do anymore like I
Just it's like I just don't can't you post some pictures you guys in Jonah, right?
I just don't post some pictures you guys in Jonah Ray. I didn't post
The last one I posted was a fucking groundhog
And that I was just like it's like it's like society has got to be realizing that social media is
Bad. Yeah, I still like to take the pulse though. Yeah, you know even if it's not an accurate pulse. Yeah, that's true It may not be an accurate pulse. It is not an accurate pulse people's voices that shouldn't matter get amplified and
To you, you know what I mean? I mean, I don't mean like should have matter to the world
But I mean like voices that shouldn't be in your head are why because you invited them in
So whose fault is it? Is it the fucking assholes or is it you for letting them in?
Yeah, it's a tough question.
It's not.
It's a pretty easy question.
In Walt's case, I understand.
If he were to seek out on Reddit or Facebook or anywhere where people talk shit about us,
that would be one thing.
But you do.
You have to answer emails.
When emails come in, they're not all, fuck you.
No, they're not. No, in, they're not all, fuck you. No, they're not.
No, yeah, they're not.
Absolutely not.
I don't want to paint that picture.
There's plenty of wonderful, kind, sweet emails too.
But it's just nice to see that many people come down.
We didn't say, come on down.
They just did it on their own.
Yeah, that's nice.
That's cool.
That's impressive that there's that many people that like it that much. And they like
each other too and they want to hang out and chill together. I mean, we've gotten people
married from this podcast. Hopefully they're still married.
Kids.
If they're – but let's say a listener got married. They met each other through this
podcast and it doesn't work out. Can you still listen to the podcast without feeling
like – it has to taint the podcast, right?
A little bit.
Like it's hard to get jacked up for that release, that weekly release.
Yeah, maybe.
There's that kind of back history though.
Maybe not.
I don't know.
I guess it depends on how bad it went down.
Maybe you'll be looking to it for solace.
Maybe I can just listen to this.
Hopefully that's not the case.
I'm sure those young kids are still happily in love.
They're newlyweds.
Not like the curse of the stash where everybody who gets married there gets divorced.
Whether it's Mike or Kevin, it doesn't matter who marries them there.
Yeah, there has been a string of people who got married at the secret stash.
Really?
It didn't last.
Well, I mean, are you taking marriage seriously if you get married in a complex story?
Yeah.
Are you making a mature lead?
Yeah.
Summer. It's finally here, Q. Are you making a mature leap?
Summer is finally here, Q.
It is?
It warmed up.
It went from fucking the nice 70s to fucking like 90 and humid as fuck.
Oh, fucking wild.
I'll take that though.
Yeah, that's better.
Better than the cold.
Oh, summer, more warmth, more light, more time to spend outside.

Speaking of jamming, I was jamming the other night.
You did some jamming?
Yeah, me and my mom went to a concert.
Check this shit out.
What concert? Check this shit out.
Okay.
I got to sit close enough to get cousin Brucey's brow sweat.
Wow.
Hit me.
Were you at his funeral?
Cause I thought for sure he was dead by now.
That was cousin Brucey still alive.
I'm glad he is but hell.
He is still alive, a spry, a chicken.
Ooh, cousin Brucey spry, a chicken.
Ooh, cousin Brucey.
Ooh, doggy.
And he was the emcee for Tony Orlando's show.
Holy shit.
That sounds awesome.
It was fucking, I couldn't keep the smile off my face.
And it was somebody named Andy Kim who I didn't know who he was, but then when he started singing some of his hits, I was like, Oh fuck, I know
this one, I know this one too.
Um, rock me gently, rock me slowly.
Take it easy.
Don't you know that I have never been loved like this before.
He sung that, Tony Orlando, sung all his big hits, tie yellow ribbon, gypsy
rose, knock Three Times.
He's 80 something years old.
They played fucking – I was like, oh, I'll be out of here by nine.
The shit was fucking – I was like, it was 11.30.
I didn't get home until 12 o'clock.
It was awesome.
It really gave me hopes that these old fucking guys, this is how they stay alive by performing.
Our goal should be podcasting when we're in our 80s like these guys.
Right?
Keep us alive.
Yep.
I just saw a picture of Rick Springfield shirtless at 75 playing a guitar.
He's fucking in shape.
Dude, I was ashamed of myself.
There's not even anybody around me and I. Dude, I was ashamed of myself.
There's not even anybody around me and I'm like,
you fat piece of shit.
I'm at Springfield, 75-year-old man's out there
looking buff and cut and fucking rocking out and shit.
Weren't we together?
Didn't we see the Who together?
Yes, we did.
And wasn't he in his like 60s in Daltry?
Daltry?
Daltry, yeah.
Daltry and he took his shirt off and we were like,
motherfucker.
Yeah, we were like, I'm 10 ten-year-old younger than I am.
The shame is real.
Yeah.
Yeah, but it was fun.
And I knew all his big hits.
And that's the thing, though.
He doesn't have any medium-sized hits.
So he has like four or five hits.
So then it's like, holy shit, it's just like song after song that you're like, I don't remember.
Oh, he doesn't do covers. He's not like, let me give you some Sinatra's.
Yeah, he did. He did come into America.
Oh, all right. Great. Hey, man.
It was, it was, but yeah, it gave me inspiration. You're like, uh, that should be our goal.
Yeah.
Podcasting into one more.
Keeping us alive.
Yeah.
All right. I don't want to die.
I think that's great.
Yeah. No, no one wants to die. But if, but as you have to have. I think that's great. Yeah. No, no one wants to die.
But you have to have, I think, that something in your life that you love to do, like these
guys want to be up on stage.
And they didn't embarrass themselves at all.
Oh, no.
How old are they?
They got to be in their late 70s, early 80s, right?
Well, and what does his voice sound like?
Does it sound like no sweeteners or anything?
As far as I could tell, no.
And I saw him put the mic down and do things like, cause it's, and there's no backing
tracks.
Oh, no?
I could tell there was no backing.
This guy's voice is still spot on.
It's unusual at that age, usually in the back and tracks.
Yeah.
To Orlando.
And there was, he brought somebody out who does doo-wop and like, bomba da bomba, dang
a dang a, jing a dong a.
And it got me thinking, that was our parents' dangerous music, right?
Yeah.
And it kind of went the way that, or their grandparent.
I think my parents were Elvis.
They were a little younger than you.
I'm like, so my parents were Elvis. I'm a little younger than you. I'm like, so my parents-
But they definitely grew up a doo-wop then.
Yeah, but my dad was born in 46.
So by the time he was listening to teenage music and stuff like that-
66?
He would have been in the scene of-
Oh, for his Beatles?
Yeah.
Stones and shit?
My dad was always a country guy though, so he never gave a shit about any of that.
But you'd have to agree though that at a certain point in America, bomb with the bomb, ba-dang-a-dang-dang,
was like gangsta.
Yeah.
Yeah, he was getting banged.
Right?
Yeah.
And I was thinking, what's the only way that Doo-Wop could come back where the kids were
into it?
If Doo-Wop was like singing about like banging strippers, like and-
Yeah. If rappers decided to sing Doo- strippers, like and – Yeah.
If rappers decided to sing Dula, then it would work.
Right.
Well, I think – but if they did it with like bombadabomb and then they just rolled
into like –
So that's the only part of it that they take as a beginning.
Then they roll into like wet ass pussy.
I would think it had to be very vulgar, but I think Doo-Wop could come back.
When this guy came out and did Bomb with the Bomb, I don't know if he's the original guy
that even did it.
He may not be here, he may be.
The fucking place went nuts.
What was the average age there?
What do you think?
I'm thinking about Tony Orlando.
It was a free concert, too.
It was free?
It was free to seniors.
Where was it?
Garden State Art Center in Holmdel, right around the? It was free. Oh, wow. To seniors. Where was it?
Garden State Art Center in Holmdel, right around the corner from my house.
So like literally five minutes drive from my house.
But if I had to guess, 80?
About 80?
Yeah, there's a lot of old timers there and they love their rock still. You know, I'm ashamed of our generation who kind of like put the flag down.
Yeah, turn their back on rock.
They let it slip through our fingers.
Rap is more popular than rock?
Oh, I like rap now too.
But our fucking, the greatest generation, fuck rap.
I'm a rock and roller.
Yeah.
That's why I fucking, I had tears in my eyes watching these old fuck rap. I'm a rock and roller. Yeah, that's why I fucking tears in my eyes watching these old fuckers
And they are so patriotic man they
Is it is a what a night though?
Like I I thought I would enjoy myself, but I enjoy myself even more than I thought I would.
Oh, that's cool, man.
Yeah.
Those guys, like they don't, I agree with you.
Like they don't need to do it.
No.
They're doing it because they're like.
Well, I don't know.
You think, you don't think they need it.
How much money do you think they're making up there?
How much money is still coming in?
I mean, how much money am I making tonight up there?
You know what I mean?
Like you do things because you love it.
You know what I'm saying? Like, yeah. I because you love it. You know what I'm saying?
Like, yeah.
I, well, he came out of retirement for this one show.
Oh, wow.
Tony Orlando had been retired and he came out of retirement to receive some sort of award
from the military.
Oh, shit.
Good for you.
For all the work he does with vets and stuff.
And so I don't know if anybody will ever see Tony Orlando ever perform again.
So you might have seen the last Tony Orlando performance.
That's pretty cool. How did your mom like it?
She loved it.
Yeah.
Yeah. But she was apologizing the whole way up. She was,
I don't know, you're not going to like this. I was like, I don't know what you think,
but I love 70s music. I said, I'm going to love this. I said,
I think you're too young for it. I'm like, no, man, I'm going to love this.
But I loved it even more.
And Andy Kim, yeah, he's a – he had a lot more hits. You remember him?
No.
No?
I didn't know his name either. I wasn't recognized by name, but when he started singing
some of the songs that he – oh, he sung the song Sugar Sugar, Honey, Honey. That was
him. He was the lead singer in the Archie's.
Oh, was he? Yeah. Oh, really? That sounds like, but he was the lead singer in the Archie song. Oh, was he?
Yeah.
Oh, really?
That sounds like a pretty good concert today.
Yeah, that sounds pretty fun.
Yeah.
Any wafting of the Mary Jane?
You smell any of that?
I told my mom to, if she was going to smoke it, to smoke it away from me.
Right.
Go in the car and smoke it.
Walt, I'm going to go get high.
I'll be right back.
Smell of pinky.
There was no marijuana.
No marijuana.
No marijuana.
No marijuana. No marijuana. I'll be right back.
There was no marijuana.
No.
It was a fucking straight-edge show, maybe.
They heard it at a fucking rock.
Not to fucking zone out like zombies and shit.
Yeah.
Exes growing on their hands and stuff.
Yeah.
What – who opened for them?
Or did anybody open for them? Oh, the guy who sang, I don't remember his name, but he had another big hit in the jungle,
the mighty jungle, the lion sleeps in the jungle. And this fucking guy could still get those high
notes. Still got it at his advanced age. It is so impressive to see guys like,
and they were just so happy to just be on stage
performing and the people,
but I wonder if that show was even $5,
how many less people would be there though?
You never know.
Yeah, but it was put on by the state.
So like,
We've found over the years that when you do, sometimes when
you do free events, um, people don't show up. We started charging like $5, like events that would
be free. We started trying because there's a psychological thing where if someone spends even
$5 on a ticket, they don't want to waste it and they show it up. Like when we did free stuff,
people would be like, sign up for the tickets and then
like 40% of the people would come.
Really?
And then one of the promoters were like, you got to charge, you got to charge $5, watch
what happens.
And we did something about spending that money.
People show up.
It was a weird, it was like an interesting, interesting little thing.
What was that place in, right across from the San Diego Comic-Con? You guys did a baseball field there.
Peco Park.
Peco Park.
Yeah.
Five years in a row.
That was huge.
Yeah. We did that, I think, five years in a row.
Yeah. That was huge. Did you charge for that? That was free, right?
That was free, but it was Comic-Con and it was-
Everybody's just coming over from Comic-Con, right?
Yeah. Those days were fun.
Huh. Mary Beth just got back from Texas. She went to see blue October out there.
Oh, you finally got out of it.
Uh, yep. I didn't have to go to this one.
Where'd you go?
Uh, her brother, her brother and a MJ, you know, MJ with the red hair,
Spider-Man. They all went together and, um, I was wondering because she had such
a good time. She was so happy about it.
And I'm like, who would I go to Texas to see?
To see?
Like as a rock band or.
Ozzy.
Like the last of Ozzy's concerts.
He's doing that, but he's doing it over in London.
Oh, is he? So this is supposedly his farewell tour or something?
Oh yeah, the lineup is insane. Well, yeah, it So this is supposedly his farewell tour or something? The lineup is insane.
Well, yeah. It's like it's his, like he's headlining, but it's his festival, right?
Yeah. It's the last Black Sabbath show. Tony Iommi is going to be there.
The lineup is absolutely bonkers. It's Anthrax. It's Metallica, Sammy Hagar,
Billy Corrigan. It is going to be like a 15-hour show. And then you see those shows that look like the fucking US Festival or whatever,
and I'm just like, who in their fucking right mind?
I would love to have been in the US Festival though.
Oh yeah, that's what I'm sure.
Hindsight being 2020.
Because you're a kid, you don't give a fuck.
Yeah. But an aunt's going, and we were talking about it earlier today, she scored a ticket,
and she's going to fly over to London and see, or Birmingham to see it.
I forget where the fuck she said, but it's in a soccer stadium.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, and she's got to take a plane over to see it.
Sounds worth it.
You wouldn't go to Texas for that?
I would go to Texas for that, yeah.
Yeah, those are a lot of benefits.
If I had good seats, but if I'm like—like the first concert
I ever went to was The Who.
And it was at the—I guess it would be—is it The Spectrum, The Outdoor?
It's gone, yeah, but that was there in Philly.
And I was—they were at one end and I was all the way at the other end and I could not—this
is before the time of like the big Jumbotrons and shit.
So you couldn't see anything.
It was just a bunch of people around you that were completely
fucked up on whatever alcohol, drugs.
And you were, could you could hear it.
It was loud as fuck, but you just, you just couldn't see anything.
So you're telling me it like, if you were, had a chance to go see the
Aussie show for free or whatever, but you were like a mile away, you wouldn't go.
Oh no, a mile? Yeah. Yeah, I would go a mile. A mile away? Oh were like a mile away, you wouldn't go? Oh no, a mile?
Yeah.
Yeah, I would go a mile.
A mile away?
Oh, sit a mile away?
Oh, fuck, no way.
Just to be in the fucking stadium and to feel that power, feel that fucking energy?
Dude, I'd fucking sit two miles away to fucking see Cousin Brucie.
Oh, I thought you were right up there.
He was sitting on your-
No, I would have though.
Oh, you would have. Even though I was for this event, I was so impressed. I'm like, next time if they're like, you got to sit two miles Oh, I thought you were right up there. He was sitting on you. No, I would have though. Oh, you would have.
Even though I was for this event, I was so impressed.
I'm like, next time if you're like, you got to sit two miles away, I'd be like, all right.
Really you'd be sitting in the lawn seat, you bullshit.
I would.
The energy?
85-year-old people, like, get in there.
Get in the hamstring of lawn, slippery lawns.
It's also nice to be in the most spry motherfucker there.
Oh, I bet, yeah.
There's something. Everyone's like, damn, look at this youngster. There's something nice to be the most spry motherfucker there. Oh, I bet. Yeah. There's something.
Everyone's like, damn, look at this youngster.
There's something nice about that.
I may be a grandfather, but you're a great grandfather.
Yeah.
Oh yeah, that reminds me.
Do you have something going on Tuesdays?
Do you have a new, like, regular thing on Tuesdays?
Why?
Because two weeks in a row you said you couldn't do anything on Tuesday.
So I don't know if you were, like, going up to see the grandchild on Tuesdays or-
No.
I don't remember why.
I don't remember what was going on.
It just happened to be a fall on a Tuesday.
Yeah.
We're going up.
Well, he's home.
He's at my house right now, the grandkid.
Oh, yeah?
Yeah, they're down for the weekend.
Just happened to fall on curator's weekend, but I couldn't bail on a curator.
How do you get from my grandkid? Grandchildren come a curator. How do you feel for my grandkids?
Grandchildren come and go.
How do you feel for my grandkids?
I feel your pain, bro.
You got a house full of kids, I mean of people, family.
I got my grandkids there, but I'll see them tomorrow for a little bit before they leave.
But then we're going up on Father's Day.
Okay.
We're going to go see them.
Is that the following week?
It's in June.
I don't know what week. It's in this month, though. I don see them. Is that the following week? It's in June. I don't know what do I don't know what we
It's in this month, though. I don't know what is it. Yeah
You gotta get your dad something good
Yeah tickets to black to the black Sabbath reunion
He's too he's too old he's too young for do op he must be ready to fucking do rock
He wants to read and watch sports.
That's all my dad wants to do.
Tell him it's at a soccer stadium.
When we were down in Key West, he barely wanted to say hello to people, let alone engage in
anything.
Oh, your parents came?
They came, yeah.
My father didn't want to go.
He walked into Margaritaville.
He was like, what's going on in here?
My mother was like, it's going on in here? My mother was like, part of Brian's thing.
And he's like, go.
Jim Quinn doesn't get too worked up about anything.
Yeah, but Carol Quinn loves it.
Loves it.
She can't get enough of it.
Yeah.
She's in there.
She's having fun.
That's her personality.
She's always been that way.
Yeah.
She likes it.
Yeah.
Pam's the same way.
You put Pam in a social situation, she'll be having fun.
Yeah.
You're the same as... He likes to talk to people, but he'll sit back and wait until
somebody talks to him.
No, my dad doesn't want to talk to anybody.
You don't want to talk to anybody.
Literally, he doesn't want to hear it.
One of the cruises, Mary Beth said, that was one of my favorite moments was just walking
by your dad and he's eating an ice cream cone. Nobody's bothering him. He's reading his book
and he's just doing his own fucking thing.
The happiest he's ever been.
Yeah.
I'll tell you what you should have did. You should have sent... Get him over to sit next to him and talk bothering him. He's reading his book and he's just like doing his own fucking thing. Yeah. I'll tell you what you should have did.
You should have sent, get him over to sit next to him and talk to him.
No.
There's no cracking in my jazz.
Get him, could do it.
No, he cannot.
You cracked me.
I knew it was you, dude.
He cannot.
He might bring him over a croissant and a bottle of water.
And he'd be like, what is this?
And become best friends.
He'd be like, throw this shit out and get me a Pepsi.
Like, he would not, my father does not want anything to do with get him.
Or really me, I guess.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. out and get me a Pepsi. My father does not want anything to do and get him. Or really
me, I guess. Stoic is the word.
Stoic.
Yeah. Made a gran at that, man.
All right. Let's-
You got an ad?
I got one more.
Okay. I think we got a... I don't know. I don't know if we got to wrap it up yet.
How long does it take to get over to the
theater?
It doesn't take that long to get there.
I would say it takes a good 20 minutes.

That's for that. Anybody keeping up with Diddy? No. Oh, I wanted to ask you Walt, you only
follow three people on Twitter.
Who are they?
It's Declan.
Okay.
It's some sort of football thing.
And then-
Oh, it's the Detroit Lions guy.
Yeah.
Detroit Lions guy.
And then there's something called Wisdom Stoics, which I couldn't figure out if maybe
you followed them accidentally because-
Yeah, probably.
It's a company that helps you build your social media presence.
It's a company that helps you build your social media presence. The secret's out. He doesn't even follow me or Q. He's following these guys.
Yeah, that has to be an accidental follow.
I don't even know.
Yeah, I would have no idea.
Even if I saw it in my feed, I wouldn't realize that I was following it.
I would assume it was spam.
I wanted to ask your opinion on this too.
I don't know if you saw this well, but there
was a California high school track star girl
stripped of a title.
Now the reason being it was because at the end of
the race, she mimicked this Olympian, uh, runner
who at the end of the run took a fire extinguisher
and sprayed their shoes.
Oh, like they were on fire?
Yeah, like they were running so fast.
She mimicked it.
She didn't really have a fire hydrant.
No, she had a fire extinguisher.
While she was running?
No, it was at like at the end of the run.
How was that done?
She went over and grabbed it and did it?
She went over and grabbed it.
I guess she was not sure she was going to win.
She brought a fucking fire extinguisher with her.
She had that much time to do all this?
She had lapped that many runners?
Yeah, she ran the race and as soon as she got done, you know, she won.
She went over into the, like the center field part and grabbed the fire
extinguisher and just sprayed her shoes very quickly, very quickly.
They took her title away for that.
They said it was like a celebration.
A blessed sportsmanship.
Celebration was over the top and, uh, unsportsmanlike.
I would have to think there has to be rules in place, like, like firm rules.
And it can't be like ambiguity.
It can't be like a gray area.
It's got to be like, you can't do this in a celebration.
And yeah, if not, then I think she might have a case then to try to win back her.
Get it back.
Get it back.
Yeah.
Well, the officials were saying that it was against the rules for like over the top
celebrations, which is like, it didn't seem that over the top to me.
I don't know.
That is kind of, you don't think that's over the top?
I mean, as fast as she did it and like, I mean, yeah, is it like bigger than just being
like, yeah, put your arms up in the air?
Sure.
But like as fast as she sprayed her sneakers and then like put it down and walked off,
I was like,
but I guess then everybody's doing shit like that. There's a new thing with high school graduations are not high school graduations anymore. Every person who gets their diploma dances off the stage
or has huge stacks of money. And it's like making it rain and shit. Dude, it's insane.
Yeah, but have you been to a high school graduation?
Oh yeah, they seem way more fun than the average graduation.
At least something's happening.
But they're break dancing, they're doing flips, they're doing all that shit.
I love it.
It sounds so much better.
Can I ask a question about the track meet though?
This is at a track, right?
Yeah.
Why would they have a need for a fire extinguisher outside at a track meet?
I think she brought it with her. Oh, so it wasn't even the school's fire extinguisher outside at a track meet? I think she brought it with her.
Oh, so it wasn't even the schools.
No, no, I think it was hers.
She knew she was not sure she was going to win that she brought it with her.
And then she was, she's like, I want to mimic this Olympian guy.
Maybe that's the technicality that's going to cost her.
She brought, yeah, if it was an existing school fire extinguisher, she, maybe she
could get away with it because it was just there in the spur
of the moment. She did it. I don't know. I'm saying it's premeditated.
The premeditation is.
Premeditation may cost her the medal. I mean, I would have a hard time if I was in charge,
taking it away from her. Maybe just a warning.
Mm-hmm.
Because who are they giving it to? If I was a second place runner, I'd be like, I don't want it.
I'd be like, I didn't earn this.
I'm a girl with the fucking hot feet.
I mean, I think, you know, society needs some people that are a little like, well, spit
in your eye.
Not cousin Bruce.
I mean, a little like cheeky motherfuckers.
I think society needs it.
I think like a big problem with where we are today is because everybody basically acts like politicians.
You know what I mean?
Everybody wants to follow a sir.
Total lie.
Everybody fucking celebrities, their answers are as measured as politicians.
I think it's good that there's everybody that's like, fucking fuck you.
Here's a little hot foot.
Yeah.
I got a little hot foot because I ran a race.
I won.
I'm probably going to go to school on a fucking scholarship.
Yeah.
But the cool, I wonder though, did they just make her cooler by stripping her of that title?
A martyr.
She's like, I don't give a fuck.
You know what I mean?
She might have made her cool.
It might have built her up a little bit.
Right?
I mean, you wouldn't take the medal though if you're in second place?
No. I would take that medal. I't take the medal though if you're in second place? No.
I'd take that medal.
Oh, would you?
Yeah.
Like, I won.
Hey, everybody.
I'm the winner, not her.
She's the dope that fucking sprayed her feet.
Right?
You know, I see that too, but I don't want it.
Yeah, I don't know if they were like, look, it's toxic chemicals, it's this, it's that,
I just think that it was a rule about celebrations
and they, she broke it, I guess.
So I don't know.
Oh, I did ask you about Diddy, nobody's following Diddy, huh?
No, no, no.
We hope he rots, that's all we hope for.
No fair trial, huh?
I mean, it doesn't look good for him.
No.
The dragging of the Cassie, the, his, his girlfriend at the time, dragging her out of that elevator.
Yeah.
That's enough.
What do you mean?
That's enough.
That's enough. Yeah.
Oh, yeah. Yeah.
Yeah.
That was wild, man. And they showed like her bruises and her cuts and stuff afterwards.
That's enough.
I agree, that's enough.
You gotta hand it to the guy who's Cassie's now husband
because he has to sit through that trial
and listen to all the dirty shit
that his girl did with Diddy and the text messages.
Well, they have kids too.
Yeah, I think so.
That'd be rough for me.
But if at the end of that rainbow
it was fucking up $50 million.
Well, I think she got, I think originally the payout was like, I'm pretty sure it was
like 20. Did he gave her 20 million?
So she already got 20.
She already got 20.
Well, if I was her husband, I'd be like, why don't we just live off this 20 and not celebrate
it? Everybody pissed in your fucking face.
You know what he should do? Come to court with his Ray J Raycons in, put them in, don't have to hear any of it unless
she was with him too, I don't know.
That could be.
I want to put a pastor.
It'd be tough to listen to what your woman went through.
How long were they together?
How long did he?
A couple years.
Especially a guy like that who's kind of into the extreme acts.
Yeah.
Kinda.
I don't want to paint anybody as into the extreme acts.
I've learned my lesson.
You know, I'm trying to repair my image.
I don't want anybody to set a view.
Like anybody who's into those extreme sexual acts.
As long as it's a willing situation, there's no harm.
So you're right.
It would be difficult to – you'd have to have a strong stomach.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Then if you found out she did something that you wanted to do that she declined to do,
but then you're like, you did it with him and you don't do it with me.
That would burn me.
That would burn me.
Honey, I want to do that too.
Yeah.
I bought all this beauty oil.
That would be me.
All set.
I'd be like, you did that with fucking Diddy? Yeah, I want to do that too
Fucking did he he's did he
Yeah, that would be rough that's a good point man that would really fucking bother me if I'm like we're like I'm not that kind of girl. And you find out, and you find out she was doing it with Diddy though.
All that stuff.
Yeah.
Oh, that would be rough.
I would be happy about that.
It's crazy because if you just think about your life and going to a family party with
your girl or at the dinner, it's like he's sitting there and everybody is just like,
this is a girl that fucking did all that shit with Diddy.
Like this is just, even if they're not being judgmental, it's like, you know everybody's
thinking it.
And that'd be a little tough.
That'd be it.
But that's like going under the assumption that everybody in the restaurant or out to
eat knows all the ins and outs of the trial and everything.
I think it's fair.
Well, family parties.
All right.
You know what I mean?
Like, you can't have maybe a blanket like
don't listen to the trial. Don't listen to that. My hand you tell your brother, don't
listen to that because it's going to make picnics and family get-togethers weird, okay? Don't listen. Yeah. Please. Sure. But the kids, I feel bad for the kids. Look, I understand they're going to grow up with
X amount of money now, but they're going to have to grow up and hear what their mom
did. And it's just like, again, not judging anybody for what they do, but you don't
want to hear about what your mom did.
Should they have sealed the records?
The sexual records?
Just the sexual records.
Seal them.
Trevor Burrus Put a sexy seal on them.
Aaron Ross Powell Break the seal.
And the sexual records.
Trevor Burrus Now I want to see that.
I want to hear the judge talking like that.
Aaron Ross Powell Sexual records. I want to hear the judge talking like that.
But you know what? That this is why she is brave for bringing him down.
She's, she's sitting in court.
She's dealing with all that, you know, stop it.
The footage that allegedly the footage that they have of Diddy dragging her,
you know, by her hair and stuff.
He paid the, uh, one of the security guards head of security or something, 100,000 to delete
that footage.
Somehow he kept it.
Because it's out there.
Probably to cover his ass.
Yeah.
Yeah.
He took the hundred grand and was like, fuck, you did it.
Well, just in case, like you ever came out that someone like confronted him, like you
deleted it and he could be like, oh, I got it.
Right, right.
Just in case it came up, his ass was ever on the line about it.
Which it turns out.
Yeah.
Yeah, rough, man, rough.
But who is used for a guy that beats a girl anyway?
Right.
That could be the end of it right there.
He's all gray-haired too now.
I guess he must have been dying his hair or the stress of jail, one of the two.
Yeah, he was like, he's all white-haired now.
He probably always was white-haired.
He just stopped dying so he could look older.
Those guys in that movie who show up to the fucker.
What movie with the gangsters?
They show up with the air masks on when they go to trial?
Like suddenly they're like feeble?
That was Casino.
Casino, right.
Casino when the fucking officers were in front of the judge.
They were all in wheelchairs. And then when they're outside, they take them off.
It's fucking ridiculous.
That's not funny, man.
We better wrap her up.
Yeah, we gotta go.
Yeah, we gotta go greet some ants and tell them how much we appreciate them and give
the curator some props on the stage.
Yeah, he deserves them.
All right.
Tell him Steve, Dave.
