Starting point is 00:00:00 Nobody was like, we can't have Q-tips representing people. wondering about both of you guys. Have either of you ever salted a slug? Were you wearing a pleated skirt? Maybe that's why you didn't look like Hercules? That could be it. Yeah, I was. I did use to wear pleated skirts to the chips. Tell them, Steve, Dave. Hello and welcome to this week's edition of Tell him Steve Dave with BQ. Hello. Walt. Hello.
Starting point is 00:01:03 Very reserved Walt today. Yeah, I fell asleep before you guys got here. Oh, did you? Yeah. It fucks me up if you fall asleep in the middle of the afternoon. Where were you when you fell asleep? I was just sitting in this chair that I'm sitting in and all of a sudden I was watching TV. The next thing I know, I was out like a light.
Starting point is 00:01:22 And get him, has a fucking chloroform soaked rag at his end. I never fall asleep. What's going on? But now I feel very groggy and I'm not, I'm not at my, my best right now. Want an Adderall? Pepe you up a little? No. No?
Starting point is 00:01:40 No. I try it a little bit. I try to sprite and, uh, that didn't really work, though, either. But I'll be all right. All right. As the episode goes on, I'll start to feel more and more awake. Yeah. All right.
Starting point is 00:01:52 I would introduce Get him, but he annoyed me. Oh. Yeah. He, uh, he ruined the end to tell him Steve Dave last week by posting. up with that Teddy won on Sunday, or on Saturday, rather? He didn't ruin it, though, because everybody was asking me if the people who were voting for him was announced on Friday. Oh, it was announced on Friday, okay.
Starting point is 00:02:14 Yeah, so they already knew. So, yeah, well, the listeners... All right, get him, you're out of the doghouse. Oh, very well done, doghouse. But listeners who are paying attention and who wanted to vote for Teddy, they, They were well aware that he had won already. I'm sure some who didn't vote, who didn't give a shit, were still surprised, though. There you go.
Starting point is 00:02:43 And tomorrow's the big day, right? Tomorrow's the big day. Yeah, I'm super nervous. But that's why I'm so tired. I haven't been getting any sleep. Yeah. Who do you have going up with you? Yeah, just me and my wife.
Starting point is 00:03:05 Yeah, he's going to go. Yeah, we have the, we got the lady's phone number, and they want, like, they want us to call every half hour, because it takes us like an hour and a half to get up there with traffic. They want us, they want somebody to text her, our updates are where we are. You know, I don't know. I mean, I think, like, this is like a president, a campaign. detail the way they're treating Teddy getting up there.
Starting point is 00:03:32 Yeah? Get some secret service going? I don't know. It's weird at the end. They're like, we need to know exactly where you are. I guess because there's going to be other dogs there, though. Okay. And I told I want the whole place cleared of any dogs.
Starting point is 00:03:43 Teddy can be the only dog in the whole entire studio. Or he's not coming up. You want Teddy? You're going to have to get Teddy. Oh, that's exciting. Well, probably, like, they say, like, never work with children and animals, right? It's probably going to be so chaotic there that they're like, we just need to know what's going on. Shit, man.
Starting point is 00:04:11 I can't wait to hear about it. I'm sure it's like the Miss America pageant. Like, if something happens to the dog in between them announcing it and, you know, by the time the lottery tickets are ready to be produced, if something happens to the dog, they have to have somebody else on other dog. step in and to be the big grand prize winner. Teddy somehow disgraces himself. Yeah. Okay. What do you think Teddy could do to earn such?
Starting point is 00:04:39 Well, let's say he, you know, let's say he wasn't able to get up. Let's say he got sick or something. He wasn't able to come to the photo shoot. Well, somebody else is going to get that gig then. Oh, I said, not like they notice he only growls of black people or something like that. Yeah. I don't think it's behavior issues. I'm sure it's more of health issues.
Starting point is 00:04:58 that could keep him from fulfilling his duty as the grand prize winner. Oh, shit. Yeah, what if the governor was there and he took a shine to him, like, to the point where you're, like, uncomfortable? Yeah. Who's the governor of New Jersey right now? He's governor, Phil Murphy. Murphy, still him, huh?
Starting point is 00:05:14 Still him, yeah. I think there's another election coming up soon, though. Well, first I'd give him an earful. Yeah, good. Then I say, you can't pet my dog either. Nice. That's no way to do it, man. Can I pet your dog?
Starting point is 00:05:27 You're like, no? Bring down the goddamn property taxes And the electric cost Then you can pet them Then you can fuck off Yeah really He's got no fucking right Um
Starting point is 00:05:39 Q I heard has been Romantically linked to somebody in Hollywood Well well well Romantic rumors Do go on So when I'm here And let me just pull it up If I can
Starting point is 00:05:53 I don't know why this does this man This is not me There's something wrong wrong with this iPad. Anyway, it's, I can't pull it up. You can remember it from memory? I can't remember it. I can't remember the actual, I remember her name, Tilly Norwood.
Starting point is 00:06:13 Oh, the AI girl? Yeah. Sparks debate. Oh, well. It's not even a real person? No, it's an actress. Oh. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:26 Native-based musician Stella has. and found her doppelganger. She's a computer-generated actress stirring up controversy online. And she does really like, there's a picture of this girl who, like I said, is a national bass musician,
Starting point is 00:06:39 Stella Hennon, and she does look almost exactly like her. Okay. If you can, whoops. Jesus. So how is Q getting involved? No, I was just kidding about it.
Starting point is 00:06:52 Oh, okay. That he's seeing an AI, but everybody's fucking pissed off about the AI actress, Q decides to date her. Yeah, I'm like, come here. I don't know what I'm going to do.
Starting point is 00:07:02 I mean, the whole thing is that, you know, I guess that what are they going to do with her? They just rent out the files to you and you just type in what you wanted to do. It sounds like a poor nightmare to me. It really does. Like, I mean, there has to be some sort of like, fine print. Yeah, my nightmare. Yeah, one word for it. The other word is the future, I guess.
Starting point is 00:07:22 There's got to be some paperwork. Yeah, that like whoever created her, right? has to have some rights to it or no is where AI gets murky yeah does she have an agent it says when outlets began reporting that Tilly Norwood an AI generated actress was quote unquote in talks to sign with a talent agency
Starting point is 00:07:42 Hollywood was outraged ooh I wonder what agency this is exciting this is inside baseball shit that won't matter on anybody else but I'm excited to know what agency did it everybody's uh yeah let's see what agency did it but um this and the story that i actually had i can't pull up but this girl says that she may sue because it looks so much like her shit didn't ellen page have that or elliott page when he was she sue last of us because the girl in the game looked just like her yeah vaguely remember
Starting point is 00:08:19 but yeah i think i think that was the case yeah this is tricky murky murky murky man AI performer Tilly Norwood continues to spark debate about the intersection of Hollywood and technology, and Sean Astin, star of Rudy and just elected leader of Saigafra spoke to variety over the global curiosity. It's not the first shoot a drop, he says. They had 118-day strike fighting very hard to put AI provisions and protections in place. And the teams at Saignafter had been in this fight for longer than people might realize. So it's not just about Tilly Norwood. Yeah, I mean, they were doing it already.
Starting point is 00:08:52 They were doing it already. right they were they were doing with digital extras for a while now right and um look man genie's out of the bottle it's kind of crazy i i had talked to someone who works in special effects i was out in l.A. well last week or the week before and i was talking to this guy and he works in a fucking if i said the name of the company you would be like oh of course that's the company and he was like we could do everything so much fucking cheaper now um but we're not allowed to he's like he's like like a shot of a superhero flying in the air like just that one shot of him just rising up is like cost them like 85 grand to make like four seconds and he's like I could make that shot basically for free right now by just mapping the superhero into the thing it's not a superhero project just I changed it on purpose but mapping the superhero into it and and AI will make that shot for us and it'll cost nothing he's like we're not allowed to do it he's like so so some studios are being like we will not Holding strong.
Starting point is 00:09:54 Yeah, our holding strong. But this guy was arguing for it. He was like, it's a computer program that I could use. And it's going to bring the price down. So, you know, even internally there are all sorts of differing opinions on it, I guess. So I guess the difference between CGI and AI is CGI actually takes real people and multiplies them or something like that, like for crowd scenes. whereas AI you're just totally making up the entire crowd. We're taking existing files of scanned people and putting them in.
Starting point is 00:10:31 But this was very specifically about like a specific character flying into the air and how much how the shot, how much that one shot costs as opposed to how cheaply they can do it if they just used AI. It was really interesting. It sounds like nobody knows what the fuck. to do or what's going on with it. Yeah, he says, with regard to AI, we have an extraordinary amount of leverage because the audience wants to see real human performers
Starting point is 00:10:59 and movies, TV shows, animation, video games, audiobooks, and all the other ways that we represent our members. Aston concluded. So what about, like, let's say in Phantom Menace, when, remember the big Padre scene with little young Darth Vader? Mm-hmm. Do you remember the Coliseum shot of the big crowds that were there to witness the right?
Starting point is 00:11:21 race those were all Q-tips that was a miniature set and it was all Q-tips and nobody cried then nobody was like uh well we can't have Q-tips representing people I think it's because like the people that they put in were real actors that they composited into it and the person doing it was like a digital artist who was doing it not just like make a crowd here and then like an hour later there's a crowd there that the computer made. Hmm. Like you don't, like, there's still some artist being employed to create that image for you.
Starting point is 00:11:59 Whereas AI is just prompts. Would you watch an entire AI movie? Would it, would it bother you? Would you, uh, I think I find it distracting. I was thinking about it because I had a lot of talks about it out there. And it was like, there is something about animation, right? It's the same thing. It's, it's computer animation, it's hand-drawn animation.
Starting point is 00:12:20 but there's still a human actor behind it. I don't know how I would, I think I would be so fucking distracted by the fact that everybody was fake and the voice was fake. I'm not saying I couldn't get over it, but... Do you still go to the grocery store? Or do you have you left,
Starting point is 00:12:38 have you eradicated that from your day to day life? I did eradicate it for a while and then I made a choice to do more going to the store. So I do both now. Have you ever heard that argument? It's like, where was this where is this juice
Starting point is 00:12:53 when checkout clerks were being shown the door and we had automated checkout lines and where you just check your own stuff out now and you bag it yourself and you walk out I don't remember anybody
Starting point is 00:13:06 nobody was standing up for those people right? Yeah like you go to McDonald's they have those touch screens now and shit there's not even people there yeah I'm sure some people were grousing but it's not a sexy topic wall
Starting point is 00:13:19 You're right. It isn't sexy. We've got to try to make it sexy. It's not sexy. It also affects the consumer in a positive way. They feel like I can get out of there faster. I don't have to wait for someone to scan my shit. You know, I have three things.
Starting point is 00:13:32 A person in front of me has 30 things. I can get out of here sooner. But now the stores, I think, are starting to realize that, like, there's a lot of that skip scanning where people aren't really scanning shit. I see that on cop cams all the time. People getting busted at Walmart, especially. Now, I mean, I don't want to get you off top. of AI, but there was some sad news this week. I don't know if, I don't know if there's something
Starting point is 00:13:55 wrong with me and maybe you guys can weigh in is the food town that I go to since I moved to my new place in the early 2000s is closing. I read that too. And it shook me or I felt sad. And I'm like, what's wrong with me? Why do I feel sad about this? This is a grocery store. Because the next closest one is a major pain in the ass for you. It really wasn't that, though. No? It really was. I don't know why it's felt melancholy.
Starting point is 00:14:27 That's so overpriced. I don't know why you'd be nostalgic about it. That place is a fucking ripoff. You don't think all Foutowns have the same costs of prices across the board? Yeah, they do. They're expensive. And they're more expensive, let's say, shop, right? Then shop right, shop right or stop and shop for sure.
Starting point is 00:14:39 Right. Oh, I don't know. I was just hit by a wave of melancholy that that food town that, that, was right across the street from me is no longer there anymore. It's not going to be there anymore. And all those people are out of jobs. And I don't know. Like it just kind of took the sales out of me.
Starting point is 00:15:02 Was there anyone there that you'd be like, hey. No. I never talked to anybody there. Not one person. Not one single person. But I was just like, that's kind of suck, though, that, you know, for all those people that work there. That have been there for a while.
Starting point is 00:15:16 Yeah. That's their place. Because they, I mean, they are unionized, right? Get them? You're getting a choice between Red Bank and Atlantic Highlands, Atlantic Highlands and Red Bank and go to one of those, too. Someone was complained about me answering, forget him when you guys ask him a question. And the reason I do it is because he won't fucking put a mic out for him for himself. Yeah, I don't know why he's like, he suddenly won the right to come back.
Starting point is 00:15:43 Yeah, and when I have to listen and watch the Patreon pods that go out, there's nothing more infuriating than someone talking off camera. Like, if you're going to weigh in, put a mic on. Right. And if you're not going to put a mic up, then you have to have the restraint to keep your mouth close no matter what anybody asks you. Yeah, sometimes when we're, when I'm cutting it, I have to boost him because he doesn't. It's so fucking annoying. Just put a mic out there. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:08 In case you have something worthwhile to say. I'm not saying I think you do. And I would love for you to be on mic, but if you're going to sit there and make some sort of statement. Which it seems like he is. Of course, with a little smirk on his face. Yeah, well, then you can't talk then. Yeah. Because it's just a noise.
Starting point is 00:16:25 It's not a good product for our listeners. I agree. There's a podcast that I watch, this husband and wife, and they are constantly yelling off camera to each other. And it's the most irritating fucking thing in the world. It's like, I can't hear what you're saying. And it's like, these are two, quote, unquote, professionals that should know, like speaking to a mic, not from across the room.
Starting point is 00:16:45 Hey, what was get him doing while you were napping? I have no idea. I know we can't ask him now You can ask him because of the rules The new rules that were just put in place He probably was sleeping too Every time I walk in you see he's sleeping He's holding up an empty pizza box
Starting point is 00:17:04 What a weird workplace Everybody involved in that situation It's like a slow gas leak in the office Everybody's sleeping What time is it It's only four All right, I'm going to go back to sleep then. Wake me up at six.
Starting point is 00:17:23 I got to punch out. I don't want to oversleep. Punch it out. That rarely happens, though, that I fall asleep here, though. I can't say it. Like, since we've gotten this spot maybe five times, and today was the fifth time, I've fallen asleep. Okay. That's because I'm working around the clock, though.
Starting point is 00:17:48 What are you working on? Just TSD stuff. Okay. Clearing videos, Halloween videos, getting Halloween content ready for the regular TSD Halloween show, which will be coming up later this month. Yeah, never ends, Q. No, you're on the treadmill, man. It just keeps fucking happening.
Starting point is 00:18:13 I'm fucking exhausted. I'll be back in a minute. I'll take a cat nap. Give me 20. Get him. Wake me up in 10. I want to catch a quick power now. Do you feel like you should drink more caffeine or you don't want to overdone some of caffeine either?
Starting point is 00:18:30 I don't know if it's still like I have kind of and I've had caffeine this week. I wonder if that's it. But I have had sugar though. I know. I thought sugar did the trick though. No, is caffeine on purpose or he just? No, it just was a coincidence. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:46 How's your Going strong It's all no caffeine, no sugar, no No, no, no I drink caffeine But it's like I have a cup of tea You know, it's like I don't drink soda It's going good, huh? No, you didn't fall off, no wagons?
Starting point is 00:19:01 Nope, still on the wagon, still looking good. Well, not looking good, but still Feeling all right. Yeah Pull the muscle in my back or something I don't know what the fuck I did. I was like trying to do some do some weightlifting.
Starting point is 00:19:17 Really? The next thing you know. Pull in the back. Now it's been like three days. 50's a no joke, huh? Nope. Don't lift weights in your 50s, Q. That's my advice to you.
Starting point is 00:19:28 Just shut down. Did you go to the gym or do you have your own little weight set? I have stuff at home. You have a bench at home and You felt at pop? Dumbels. I didn't feel any pop. No, I woke up in the next morning.
Starting point is 00:19:39 I was like, what the fuck, man? Why's my back hurt? I thought it was maybe the way I slept, but I'm starting to think it was doing. doing these bands that I do like I put them on my feet and then like do like a rose and shit but you have had a history where you should not be touching weights I remember that one time your arms puffed up and you had to almost have your arms cut off yeah I was like he's not even kidding yeah he's not even kidding it was they told me later on well tell us yeah you're working out like a madman so yeah I was I was this oh this would have been late night no 96 97 yeah somewhere in there and uh I was overweight so I'm like all right I'm like all right I'm going to get fit, so I go to the gym. And instead of, like, doing a course of a couple weeks, I'm like, well, maybe I'll just do it all in one day.
Starting point is 00:20:24 So I put on this belt and started doing curls. Like, so my arms are braced against this. What's the belt built? It, like, helps you brace your arm so you can keep form. It's like it goes around your stomach. It's not a weight belt, like a brown. It kind of looks like a weight belt a little bit, but it has these two things on the side. Did it have, like, stud so you look like Hercules or something?
Starting point is 00:20:43 Not that I recall. I don't think I look like Hercules. No. Were you wearing a pleated skirt? Maybe that's why you didn't look like Hercules? That could be it. Yeah. I did used to wear pleated skirts to the gym.
Starting point is 00:20:57 I don't know. I heard so much shit about it. Hey, Hercules. Hey, guys. All right. So you're working out. So I'm working out. But it's like in a way that I haven't, I've never worked out before.
Starting point is 00:21:10 I've never used this belt before. And I'm like, wow, I can lift so much. more weight, like just jamming my arms against this belt. So I'm like, I lifted like a lot more than I probably should have. And it broke down all these proteins in my biceps. And I never heard of this before or since. Nope. I know that I know that like if you pull a muscle or something or we can release proteins or whatever into your blood and it's not good. You could have a heart attack. And so that's what it did. It just like blew up my arms. I look like Popeye. Like not with the forearms. Just the way my arms like held like when you see your arms start to like get bigger I guess you're like
Starting point is 00:21:45 holy shit man I'm getting jacked I got the new system I gotta write a book or do you realize like this is not normal I realize this doesn't look like a muscle this looks like I'm swollen yeah yeah it looked like you ever see when those guys inject cooking oil into their arms no no it's weird yeah yeah getum has a picture of it right here um yeah like guys will inject like cooking oil into their arms or sometimes the women do it in their feet and shit, but it's like it'll blow your arms up. I can't remember what the exact stuff is called. Delayed onset.
Starting point is 00:22:18 Okay, I didn't read that. Rabdomolius de lysis. After intense exercise. Oh, that's the condition. That's what it's called. I guess that's what it's called, yeah. And so your arms, how quickly after working out do you start to feel something strange going on in your body? This time?
Starting point is 00:22:38 No, no. The first time when you have, yeah, the time when you're, yeah, the time when you're your arms almost at that time it was like a couple hours couple hours yeah and I was like well this is this is like this is beyond just being sore because they were really sore too but I couldn't bend them and my girlfriend at the time was laughing at me because she was like real fit and shit you know and like used to lifting weights
Starting point is 00:22:55 and fucking all she's like yeah she's like you're just a big pussy pretty much yeah pretty much so then you went to the doctor and confirm you're a big pussy this is worst case of pussyitis I've ever seen what you do trying to lift weights are too heavy you bitch Tighten your belt We have an emergency vagina Plasty
Starting point is 00:23:15 We're in room one Yeah but it took a good week for it to go down Like then they said that I was the case of the week in the hospital If you didn't get it taken care of Like your arms would have to have been amputated I probably would have had a heart attack Oh my God
Starting point is 00:23:32 Yeah it wasn't yeah They wouldn't have to amputate my heart I thought that's as I recall the story is That you had your arms amputated If you didn't go down to the hospital Yeah no it was it was more that you might have heart attack if you don't know and that doesn't scare you off weights then now you're still the weights I'm lifting right now are so it's like it's comparable to like when women used to lift like soup cans
Starting point is 00:23:51 and shit you know they're two they're like two or three pounds and they're pink yeah yeah exactly you're doing a jane fond of workout and you're fucking buns of steel over here so that to me would I if that happened to me and I knew that my body was prone to reacting that way, I probably would be scared off lifting weights for the rest of my life. It happened once 25 years ago, over 25 years ago now,
Starting point is 00:24:21 and I'm supposed to be like, I pull the muscle on my back, it's not the same thing. That happens a lots of people. No, I'm sure it's... I don't think I'm prone to injury. I think your back's all puffy and swollen. Yeah, it might be.
Starting point is 00:24:33 It looks like a hunchback over here. Where that come from? No, that was my computer. The volume's supposed to be. Oh, okay. I'm supposed to be off, but I don't know why it's on. All right. It's off now.
Starting point is 00:24:46 Very odd. I know that we could never do it because we got a guy who won't fly. Yeah. The comic book meant is who I'm referring to. Oh, I know who you meant. If the Joker's got an offer for this festival over in Saudi Arabia, big bank, a lot of money. Have you heard about this world?
Starting point is 00:25:09 No. So there's a comedy festival in Saudi Arabia, which is well known for their human rights violations. And their great sense of humor. And they cannot get enough free speech. They cannot get enough of free speech. So all these comedians were hired by like some rich guy who threw on a festival, through a festival. And these are not small amounts. I think like the baseline is 375,000 up to like 1.5 million, like the big guys, I think like probably like Dave Chappelle.
Starting point is 00:25:40 Hell, Louis C.K., Bill Burr. I think those are probably the guys that are at, like, the 1.5 million range. And then there's a bunch of, like, lesser comics who's vacuuming out there? Cleaning. Oh, God. So, uh, people are like, you're hypocrites because, like, all these comedians are pretty much way on the side of, like, virtue signaling and shit like that. And they're like, how can you do that when these people, like, they caused, like, even Pete
Starting point is 00:26:06 Davidson's going. His dad died at 9-11. Yeah, I wonder how much they're paying them. It all has to boil down to that, right? Just what's your number? Yeah, you got a number and that's it. Yeah. Or you don't have a number and that's it.
Starting point is 00:26:22 I think that's Ming. Ming didn't have a number. He went over anyway. The second, look, on the surface, you know, you're like, yeah, fuck it. But then the second you dig into it and you're like, wait, these guys were connected to 9-11, I couldn't do it.
Starting point is 00:26:41 I wouldn't be able to do it. Yeah, Shane Gillis is one of the guys, Tim Dillon, I think also. We're like, we're not doing that. Yeah. I, you know, I, these are the people I want to turn their region to glass. Not so long ago.
Starting point is 00:26:55 Yeah. Yeah, I wouldn't do it. I mean, look, they couldn't dangle enough money in front of me to do it. Oh, but Q, what you could do is take the money, and then when you get up on stage, you drop that joke. Yeah, and then what, run for the airport, I guess? I know you motherfucker's got planes. Where is it?
Starting point is 00:27:19 I don't get out of you. I haven't forgiven a single thing about 9-11. I hold that hatred deep in my heart. Like, I couldn't do it. I couldn't do it. I guess what all the comics are saying are like, there's more free speech over here. Bill Burr is saying they got a fucking Chili's over here.
Starting point is 00:27:42 So it's more like America than you think. And I was thinking like in terms of people who have attacked us. Who else? The Japanese in Pearl Harbor. We get along with them now. But they also don't have the same background right now in terms of like social unfairness, let's say. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:03 It's just a sticky wicket. And I don't know, man. And once you have that much money, like why are you like, Why are you doing it? Like, what are you getting out of it besides just more money, I guess? I don't care. But you know what? I don't know the internet.
Starting point is 00:28:19 I just know the hub. I know the backlash. That's all I heard. I haven't done any research into it or anything like that, you know. Do you think it's an audience of like sultans and princes and guys who probably have to be familiar with America? stand-up, right? Because I can't imagine that American stand-up is... It does it translate.
Starting point is 00:28:49 Yeah, does it translate worldwide? Well, they're throwing a big comedy festival. I think so. Like, yeah, the W.W.E goes over there and performs, you know what I mean? Yeah, but that's like, yeah, guys flying around, beating shit out of each other. That plays anywhere. You can take that to the middle of the Congo. No, I just mean in terms of, like, the morals of doing it.
Starting point is 00:29:09 oh okay yeah yeah like and then the females wrestlers have to dress up and like head to toe gear no matter what they normally wear they have to cover every inch of oh did they bring any female comedians they did bring some females there they have to dress I don't know I could find that oh I promise you that if they're a female comedians there they don't think they need like the whole get up the whole like burq they just can't they can't show anything other than hands and head yeah that's what the wrestlers have so I don't know look man if I was fucking broke and somebody's like I'll give you $400,000 to travel over there and do a fucking 20-minute stand-up fucking act. You know, I don't know what I would do in that position, I guess, but I'd like to think that I would hold to hold to how strong, huh? That's what I would like to think, yeah. And I have turned down things on principle before, so my record's pretty good, but everybody's a fucking, every company, if you dig deep enough, has fucking shady shit that you don't
Starting point is 00:30:07 want to be associated with you know what i mean i don't get it i do know this that if you not making hey l lc that's right baby we don't we don't know who we don't know who owns airport plaza we might be paying rent to some fucking print somewhere but uh but i'll tell you what if you guys want to go to a comedy festival that has no ties to terrorism there you go what a segue uh all american q west uh haven't even haven't even announced it yet just just just just set it on, haven't done any promotion, haven't done anything but mentioned it on Tell them Steve Dave, there's only something like 35 tickets left. Dude, that's how you fucking promote that shit online on social media.
Starting point is 00:30:47 No Saudi performers. That's it. Oh, fucking American. Women can wear whatever they want. In fact, it's encouraged to dress as little as provocatively as you feel like. SQS, baby. That's what we do. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:03 So, you know, tickets, and I'm only mentioning this because I am going to start promoting it next week. week after this episode comes out and I really just like last year would the more you know ants there the happier I am of course but uh there's something like 40 tickets left I think I mean it really went so quick yeah so you got to move 40 more tickets this thing will sell out yeah there's not a question I I just don't want to promote it until every aunt has had an opportunity to oh I see what you mean you don't want to let yeah you don't want to let the mass market know it's happening until the ants have had a chance to maybe figure out if they can make it.
Starting point is 00:31:40 So sometime this week, probably the upcoming week, Tuesday or Wednesday, I'll start promoting. Where can they go to buy tickets? You know, I don't even know it's on Eventbrite. If you just go to Vent Bright and just type Q.S., it'll come up. But all-American Walt, there's no, there's, fuck, you don't got to worry about me doing any terrorist shit. no machetes no strapping bombs to yourself none of that no fucking way dude unless it's an Irish car bomb we're not going to see you with any bombs
Starting point is 00:32:12 what's that it might see me for a drink yeah I don't know I don't know and the list of people that are over there is pretty impressive right like you said like Chappelle's going like I would love to hear their reasoning have they said anything yet or Or is this also a thing where it's just a thing Because people are making a thing out of it Yeah, you don't know Because people who started this
Starting point is 00:32:40 And started bitching about it Maybe they have other agendas as well Like they didn't get invited Yeah But they didn't make those A Saudi Arabian Comic Con? Yeah, he went to Dubai That's what I was talking about before, yeah
Starting point is 00:32:50 Oh shit Well, they didn't pay him to go You're right about that, right? Oh, I think he definitely He at least got paid for his flight And his hotel and stuff, I'm sure he took that blood money Yeah
Starting point is 00:33:01 I sure it did Oh man Maybe somebody's not going to be He had QS too Yeah Fucking infidel He could be He could fucking grab a drink
Starting point is 00:33:14 Which he'll be the hair guy somewhere Up here Pete Davidson His father died in the 9-11 Tera tax Was direct about his financial incentives I know I just get the routing And then I'll see the number
Starting point is 00:33:28 And I go I'll go. So he cares about the money. Bill Burr says you think everybody's going to be screaming death to America and they're going to have fucking machetes. I want to chop your head off because this is what he's been fed about that part of the world. Instead, Berr said they just wanted to laugh. And that there appears to be more freedom in the country. It's definitely true.
Starting point is 00:33:48 What the reality is that Saudi Arabia remains an absolute authoritarian dictatorship or voices that criticize the government. Criticize the royal family. Criticize the economic performance and public investment fund literally faced decades and decades. indicates in prison. I do, you know what, at the end of the day, though, I think he is somewhat correct, though. At the end of the day, I think everybody just wants to laugh. But unfortunately, you know, the world, you know, conspires against laughter. Yeah, look at Reddit.
Starting point is 00:34:20 They hate us laughing over here. Reddit's worse than the Saudis. I just meant, like, the state of the world. I mean, it makes it difficult to laugh sometimes. So if you have an opportunity to make somebody laugh in a region that isn't known for boisterous laughing, I mean, maybe that's how you justify going over. I have to say, though, I have seen, I don't know if they're Saudis or not, but they're definitely like of that persuasion, these videos where it's like these guys who have like the whole headdress and the long, like white robes and stuff are constantly playing pranks on their. dwarf buddy who's also like you know i'm assuming muslim it's pretty funny actually constantly breaking the polls it's just like no it's not like youtube oh okay yeah it's just like every
Starting point is 00:35:08 once in a while like on those uh compilation videos it'll pop up and it's like these guys playing pranks on their dwarf friend and they seem to be having a good time he doesn't have enough fucking problems he's got to worry about these assholes his balls constantly yeah that sucks I mean, you know, I guess like, you know, small humor, you know, that plays anywhere, though. Right. You know, it doesn't matter what part of them. You got a little guy and everybody's fucking piling on him. It's going to make people laugh.
Starting point is 00:35:39 Not a, not a, not, not, not my comments. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Wow. I had a, I had a, I had a listener ask me to ask you to a question. He's asking advice from Brian Johnson and BQ. He says, my job keeps me away from home three to four weeks monthly, making it difficult to support my wife who's dealing with some depression issues.
Starting point is 00:36:10 We've been managing an insurance claim for the past two months due to a flood from a busted water line. I just want advice or suggestions on what I can do to reduce stress and I cannot go on weed. as my job requires drug testing. He wanted you guys to weigh in. What would you suggest he do to alleviate stress in his life? How do you alleviate stress? You know, when you have a busted water main, what do you do? My water main bus, I used to take some weed.
Starting point is 00:36:48 Actually, I mean, the opiates were the best for that because opiates are like, yeah, you're like, I don't care. Everything's fine. It doesn't matter. Like when I was on a radio show one time with, with Kev, Kevin, it was Jim Norton and Sam Roberts. And he was talking about like when he had the heart attack and he's on the, he's on the gurney and they're bringing him in. And he's like, you know, and I just, you know, I felt like, you know, I had an aright life. Like everything's, everything's okay. And I was like, that was the painkillers.
Starting point is 00:37:16 That's what they do. Regardless of the situation, you're just like, no, that's okay, man. Like, I'm going to be all right. Like, it just makes you, gives you that soothing feeling. know until you know you're spending fucking hundreds of dollars a week on it and it's not soothing anymore you're just trying not to fucking is there a way that that he could do that without getting caught on his on his drug test so uh i would say no okay and nor should he start yeah that's one thing that's some good advice right there yeah yeah that's not going to relieve
Starting point is 00:37:46 your stress that's going to compound it trust me uh Jesus I mean I know people like go for walks and shit, you know, just like a short walk, like 15 to 20 minutes? Never. But you're asking a guy who's depressed and stressed constantly, you know? What are you stressed about at this stage? I'm constantly worrying about shit. How about what? Like, I worry about, like, the future.
Starting point is 00:38:05 I worry about Sage a lot. Like, I think about her a lot. I think about Mary Beth because I'm much older, you know, and I'm like, well, what's going to happen to these guys when I die? And, like, I stress out about that. I mean, I can't say it's on my mind 24-7, but every once a while, especially at night, like, when I'm going to sleep. And it affects you negatively.
Starting point is 00:38:21 Yeah, I would say so. Yeah. I would say so. There's got to be something that you can do to alleviate that, though, I would think. I mean, try not to think about it is one thing. Yeah, it's pretty, because it's true, you know what I mean? It's coming regardless if I worry about it or not. It's what are you going to do?
Starting point is 00:38:44 I had a similar thought today. I just found out today that second cousin of mine passed away this morning. And someone that I really, really, really liked a lot. And she was older than me. She's my mother's cousin, right? And she babysat me as a kid, and we always got along. And I was like, they're, they're, that generation's going. Like my parents are hitting their 80s.
Starting point is 00:39:06 I was like, I'm fucking like, whose generation's up next? It's fucking mine. I'm like, holy shit. It's us. Fuck you. It's me and Brian. What the fuck you worried about? You're going to be too close in age.
Starting point is 00:39:20 We're too close in age for me to feel safe. Yeah, that's how you maybe alleviate if you feel a little bit of stress. Well, at least I'm not as old as Brian Walt. Yeah, that's a good one. Yeah. You could go there. Yeah, there's not a, there was an up span in my life where I ever fell asleep sitting up and now I do it regularly. You can't stop it.
Starting point is 00:39:47 I'm watching the fucking devils There's not a chance on the planet In all the years watching That I ever fell asleep watching a game All of a sudden I'm watching the game Next thing I know Fucking an infomercials on About fucking chopping carrots
Starting point is 00:40:03 And I miss the game Because I fell asleep So what? Get back to this guy This guy needs some help I don't know Brian has really offered anything Yeah Well, go for a walk or try not to think about it.
Starting point is 00:40:20 The problem is that he didn't give us, this is the issue. This isn't like a personal issue. Like I don't know what's going on with his wife. I don't know how far. He doesn't see his wife for three weeks out of every month. Three to four weeks, he said. So sometimes he might not see her at all. I mean, that is fucking brutal, man.
Starting point is 00:40:36 So he's home for about a week a month. Yeah. I didn't want to, I know what his job is. It's pretty interesting. I'm not going to give it on the air. But, so it probably pays pretty well. He can't just, he can't just quit. No, I, yeah, you just can't give up a job that I imagine he's probably making pretty good money on.
Starting point is 00:41:00 Well, I mean, that to me is the discussion, because your wife is alone and she's going through something. And is there something to be said for being like, like look that's my fucking nothing's more important than that that's just saying i don't know their relationship i don't know their you know what i mean like their marriage maybe it's hard to say like you would think if they're married you would you know in a perfect world that they're fucking you know in a good happy marriage in which case i would be like dude if you if you if you if you have someone that that you love that much like you got at least consider finding another gig um but i don't know you know how do you handle your stress in your
Starting point is 00:41:46 anxiety. What do you do to calm yourself down? What are your methods? What's something that you're as a proven method that BQ does to lower that pulse? He's a video game guy, right? Video games help a lot. Yeah, video games help a lot. I try and listen to me. Like this, this is fucking actually, so for the month of October, I'm away for four days out of every week. I'm only home three days a week this month. And I'm like just at the start of it. And I'm fucking already like stressing out about it the travel the being away from home being away from the cats being away from my house like all that shit is starting to build up on me and like for me it's just i'm just like one foot in front of the fucking other and let's just get through this you know what i mean it's just it's just
Starting point is 00:42:27 it sucks so fucking badly that i don't even know how to if the guy's not going to smoke weed that does it for me playing video games does it for me i started working out again but then that gets stressed careful because then when you can be careful yeah because like when you only work out once a week because you're gone the other fucking four or five days. Then you just feel like a lazy asshole. So I don't know. I don't know how to handle this one. I don't have a lot of advice for the guy here because I don't know what he likes. I don't know what he doesn't like. Or like how depressed is his wife? You know, like is she like on the ledge? Is she just starting to feel like down because he's not around? Can she travel with him sometimes? Yeah. Can you can you,
Starting point is 00:43:07 can you split the month where she's with you? I don't know. It's hard to say without all these he's fucking i would say for this guy getting to therapy and fucking talk it out i would do like once a week like teletherapy with someone just to have someone to talk to and to bounce ideas off of um because you got to look out for your own mental health first before you you can help your wife really i don't know man i'm kind of coming up empty on this and i feel really bad about it because i just don't know enough details you know right It's tough I don't know what he likes
Starting point is 00:43:43 Okay Well I mean I think the effort was there though I mean it's not like you guys just poo poohed it No I understand I want to help him Yeah I understand Sucks Is there an ad this week maybe
Starting point is 00:43:57 No ads unless you want to do Patreon Talk about Patreon which is fucking awesome I thought maybe we could segue into maybe him buying something from us Oh yeah Yeah get some yundies I feel better. I'm here, like usually on Fridays, I bring Sage to her mother's house. Then I stopped by and see Pam and Edgar.
Starting point is 00:44:17 But this week, I was like, nope, I got to do the pod. And that's on top of Pam having a health scare at the beginning of the week. Oh, no. In the hospital for two days. Really? Yeah, heart trouble again. She started to have some pain in her heart, and then they brought her in. And it was something about elevated enzymes or whatever the fuck.
Starting point is 00:44:34 And so she was there for a couple days, and then they sent her home. What cause is that elevated M times? No clue. No clue. I don't know. So why don't you just go after the pod? It's not that. I could.
Starting point is 00:44:49 I'll probably go Sunday and see him. All right. Yeah. After the pot, I'm, I got to decompress. I'm winded. I'm going to fall asleep. I was wondering about both of you guys. Have either of you ever salted a slug?
Starting point is 00:45:07 Of course I know Gettam has. I did when I was younger, yeah. Now, I never have, and I don't really have any experience ever seeing anybody do it. So I'm guessing what the process is is you just pour salt out of a slug. Poor salt time, and then I guess all the moisture gets absorbed, yeah. It's horrible. Yeah, I can't imagine that that's done by anybody. but like a six-year-old who doesn't know enough, you know.
Starting point is 00:45:40 Right. It was just like, I wonder what'll happen. Yeah. Yeah, that's, that's about the age that I, because you hear about it. You're like, I got to see this. And then it's, it's horrible. They just turn it to like a fucking snot-trail. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:54 I don't even know if I've seen a slug in decades. I haven't seen one in the longest time. Marybeth came in the other night. This one made me think about it. She's like, oh, there's this cutest slug outside. I'm like, I've never heard slugs being referred to as cute, but okay. And go ahead. I got a cute, well, I'll let you finish, but I have a cute slug thing that just happened to me last week.
Starting point is 00:46:13 That's so fucking funny. Yeah, that was the end of my slug story. Oh, no. Why don't we got two slug stories? I was in my yard. It's hot this week. There was this fucking mother slug and crawling away from her were like two baby slugs. And I was like, holy fuck, I never even once in my life thought about slug recreation.
Starting point is 00:46:34 Like a slug having a mother? Yeah, and I was like, holy fuck, that, that was exactly my thought. I was like, that's a mother slug. It just, it humanized them for me in a way. And I put my salt, I put my salt shaker down. You're like, you're lucky motherfucker. Would it ruin it for you if I was like, you know what they're looking for is just some sort of fucking fecal droppings to eat?
Starting point is 00:47:01 No. No, okay, all right. No, no. I just never thought of a slug family before. Because I think that's what they survive on. They look for dung. That's how they... Is that true? Slugs eat shit?
Starting point is 00:47:15 Yeah, it's all they do is they're just eat shit. So like landscapers, when they put down fertilizer, they just go in there and eat it? No, I think it's more not chemically treated fertilizer. I think it has to be droppings from like a dog. a cat or a, or a bird or something. So sometimes they need other slugs. Oh, little bastards.
Starting point is 00:47:41 Yeah, they more like organic waste, organic matter. Little tiny. Yeah. There are, you know, in the morning, I have to, I have to frequently clean raccoon poop out of my driveway and squirrel, squirrel poop and stuff like that. Oh, yeah, I have fox shit. Fox love, foxes love to shit on the driveway for some reason. Is it that much that you have to, like, you're like, where there's
Starting point is 00:48:04 too much there i can't drive through it no no no it's just you don't want you just well i have six raccoons that come down every fucking night to my front door and shit like that and they they just drop turds like in front of my fucking door take that yeah i don't know why they're doing that i'm feeding the little fuckers but yeah maybe that's their way of saying thank you they can't give you anything else that's all they got to give you like how a cat brings your mouse or a bird or something yeah so there's this raccoon who I thought had rabies because about two months ago he was out during the day and he walked into my garage and he was like moving herky jerky like he had nerve issues and I was like I was like I guess this thing's going to fucking die you know what I mean like it'll
Starting point is 00:48:49 die and then I saw him last week how quick does rabies kill these things because like I'm thinking now he just is a nerve issue and then he was playing with the other raccoon so I was like well don't they reject like if a raccoon has rabies don't they reject it and shit like that I think it has to be frothing at the mouth of foam I don't know what to do about this guy I don't think maybe he broke a hip when he fell out of a tree or something and now I'm like what do I got to help this guy I want to go near it if only our our resident genius had a mic he could tell us what because he's dying to a raccoon yeah he's yeah is he really yeah Speaking of frothing at the mouth.
Starting point is 00:49:32 Yeah, it's got blood dripping down his fucking chin because he's biting his tongue so hard. Well, text me to get him because I want to know how to help this guy. And you're the answer. You don't want to get too close to a potentially rabid animal cue. No, but he was like, when he came in my garage, he just came up to my, like, the way I found out he was in there is he, his Paul was on my shoe and I looked down.
Starting point is 00:49:55 He was just looking up at me. So he's not like crazy. That's what I'm saying. Even at night, like when he's out there, he goes away. And if I put out food, then he slowly comes back. And he's acting normal except for whatever's going on with him inside. I think they also can carry bubonic plague, too. Oh, great.
Starting point is 00:50:15 So you don't want to get, you don't want to be on to treat that with, with kid gloves or wear a protective suit of some kind. Put a whole fucking tent over his whole house. Keep all the fucking rabies and shit in. I, I am such a fucking. a pussy. I saw this thing alone and for weeks I've been worrying about it. I've been like, oh man, did the family reject it? Does he have no? Like literally this is how I think and it's getting to be a problem. I'm like, does he have no friends? And then I'm like, oh, what a lonely
Starting point is 00:50:43 existence it must be to get rejected by your. Now, do you put all your animal friends that are on your property? Do you think of them living like a Walt Disney cartoon that they're fucking living together like Chippendale and shit? Like his friends aren't, aren't letting him in. He stole around his property zippity do you realize that it don't really work like you're humanizing these things too much it's like they have friends does he have friends not like is he going to live or die but you can't tell me that like animals don't feel loneliness and fear oh of course yeah well that's what I'm saying like so if he's if he's part of this little raccoon tribe and then they they reject him and like he's by himself like he's going to feel lonely and reject it.
Starting point is 00:51:29 I didn't know. I don't know. I think, again, I think it might be putting too many human emotions and on to, because these are creatures that survive on instinct, not feelings. No, I know, but they feel feelings. Well, they feel pain. They feel fear. Well, the raccoons play, and raccoons, like, have, like, they enjoy things. Like, that's what I'm saying. They have. right feelings and emotions so i can't rule out loneliness and rejection as one of them and then that makes me feel really really bad reject i don't know i don't have to i don't know i'd be i would be shocked if a raccoon can feel rejection on the way that you feel it or like a human being feels it you know what i'm saying it would but it would be on a different plane that like you couldn't even understand yeah i know i guess i don't know but i don't know my cats i i i fucking
Starting point is 00:52:28 I see jealousy, I see happiness, I see, you know what I mean, all sorts of things in these cats, you know, and I don't know. I just, this is, I might, I might have to go back to the fucking therapy to talk about the shit. Because I do. And then I, and then, and then I spend time worrying about it and building this fucking story in my head where I'm like, where's he sleeping tonight. And then I take one of the fucking cat houses out there and I put it where the last place I saw him was. I was like, oh, maybe if he can't climb a tree, you could sleep in that. And then, And then I see him playing with the other raccoons two nights ago.
Starting point is 00:53:01 And I'm like, I constructed this whole fucking story in my head and felt horrible about it. And he's out there playing and stuff like that. I don't know. I don't know. Is he going wacky in that house by himself? I'm not buying myself. That's true. Yeah, your friends.
Starting point is 00:53:21 I went to a concert Monday night. Last Monday night, Symphony X over in Red Bank. They're at the Basie? They're at the, no, the Vogel. Where's that? It's right next door. Oh, okay. Right next door to the Basie.
Starting point is 00:53:33 Not as big, like more of a club looking type thing. Like they have some tables and chairs, but mostly it's like standing room only type deal. And I got to say, all the metal sluts turned into grandmas. Oh, yeah. I'm looking around and holy shit. Everybody was like as old as me if not older. Yeah, especially for that.
Starting point is 00:53:54 White hair. Yeah. Yeah, that's like a, that's a, like, sort of, like, it's a well-known band. That's a niche band. But local, they're known locally. Yeah. So, yeah. You're into it.
Starting point is 00:54:05 You're into, you're really into music if you're into that band because, you know, how advanced that music was. Right, yeah. So I can only imagine that you're a lifer. If you like Symphony X in your 20s, yeah, you probably never grew out of it then. Yeah, I didn't. I know that much. Yeah. I think that's why I discovered them like something.
Starting point is 00:54:26 I was a sexy grandma in spandex, shaking it to Symphony X. What's wrong with that? If they were a sexy grandma in spandex, I would have said, okay. But it's like they all dress like Karen's now. Like nobody. Oh, really? They got the Karen haircut. Yeah, they got.
Starting point is 00:54:41 There was a couple younger ones, like maybe like a little bit younger than me that were still like trying to. To still rock the look. Yeah, still trying to rock the look. And some of them did okay. Zebra pants? No, I didn't see any zebra pants, but definitely like tight jeans and like, stuff in their hair like little shiny shit in their hair like
Starting point is 00:54:59 they like went the extra mile to go to the concert. Oh man, if I don't see zebra pants then I don't even think I went to a concert then. Yeah, I agree. Yeah, they could have went a little bit, a little bit further. But when I was there, I saw a cop buddy of mine and he told me and it was sort of like vague you know, I was leaving, but he said that he had a suicidal girl a couple days before that he had to try to talk down and he was trying to relate to her I guess and he brought up view askew and she was familiar
Starting point is 00:55:31 with view of skew and she was also familiar with tell him Steve Dave whoa so he brought it up and they bonded over that and he was like you know I got her to calm down it wasn't jujupee she's like I'm off myself they haven't mentioned me in a couple weeks weeks it's been years I don't know if Jujubi is still with us in terms of podcasting. Don't scare me like that. No, it wasn't Jujubi B. He didn't give any names. But I did feel like, all right.
Starting point is 00:56:05 We helped out a little bit. Like indirectly. But he was able to talk about the pod and shit because he listens. Really? And this girl's from Jersey? This girl's from Jersey, yeah. Wow. You should come over to the office.
Starting point is 00:56:19 of say, hey. No. You don't want to take too much responsibility on here, but we're doing that part right now. Oh, but that's like, that's when he got her, like when she finally was off the proverbial ledge. Yeah. That's when he says, like, when he knows, like, she's like, okay, I'm going to, you know, I'm going to let's go see a doctor or let's go wherever I got to go now. That's when the cop should have been like, tell him, Steve, Dave. Yeah, she'll be like, fuck, yeah, I feel better.
Starting point is 00:56:49 You think she's listening? I don't know. She may be. Oh, man. Well, we're sending out good vibes, though. Yeah, that's never.

Starting point is 00:59:07 that's going on now about these older bands who have singers who cannot do it And I'm not talking about, like, what's his name? Who's the one that Mary, Mrs. Five likes, uh, Frankie Valley. I was talking about like David Lee Roth or Axel Rose or, uh, ACDC, like they're saying these, Vince Neil, Motley Cruz is another one. Paul Stanley. Uh, like, should these guys, like should these guys just hang it up or should you go in knowing that they're going to sound like shit? I don't think they should hang it up.
Starting point is 00:59:38 No? No. Yeah, I don't think they should hang it. Because I saw a, like, a little, uh, clip from. the PNC Judas Priest's concert And holy shit did Rob Halford sound good Really? Very good, yeah

Starting point is 01:00:54 yeah I am excited I am excited to go see them I'm making the trip out there I'm seeing them and then I'm seeing Seinfeld play Caesars the following yes I got a hell of a I got a superstar lineup coming up.
Starting point is 01:01:10 And what is, what's the song that's going to get you out of that seat that's going to have you fucking pumping your fist? Hotel California. How about this? They fucking open with Hotel California, man. When you're opening with Hotel California,
Starting point is 01:01:24 the rest of the line, it's got to be fucking sick. It is. Yeah. It's like a greatest hits album with our concert. Yeah, I want to, I'm,
Starting point is 01:01:32 I'm very excited for In the City. Yeah, like that's my favorite Eagle song. So I'm, I'm pretty excited for it. Oh, man, that is good. That's going to be a good time, man. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:42 I wonder what kind of visuals they put up because they're not known for like a crazy stage show or anything. No. So I wonder how they exploit the spheres technology in a way that makes it like worth it for them to go there and do it. Yeah, I will have a full report for you, my friends. I cannot wait. When I get back. Yeah, I'm pretty, pretty fucking excited. Um, but, but, uh, hey, do I wear zebra pants to Seinfeld?
Starting point is 01:02:14 No, but yell out something about Palestine for sure. Oh, yeah. That'll be great. Let me come down on one side. I've seen him deal with some hecklers. It's interesting to watch. Oh, God. I hope nobody does that.
Starting point is 01:02:29 Just fucking enjoy the show, please. It's tough, man. I see a lot of, uh, on, on, on YouTube, I'll see a lot of people that, like, they're not necessarily heckling the comedians, but they're not necessarily heckling the comedians, but they feel the need to insert themselves with their own opinion. Like if they say something that, you know, the person doesn't find funny, they'll let them know.
Starting point is 01:02:46 And it's just, I always wondered about people like that that go to comedy shows and, I feel compelled to like, if I'm so fucking offended that I'm like, this person's an asshole, I'm probably just leaving. Yeah. You know,
Starting point is 01:02:57 I'm not going to fucking, hey, everybody, here's how I feel. Right. So fucking arrogant that everybody's got to know your fucking opinion on, on the way out of the door. But you know what?
Starting point is 01:03:06 These comedians, a lot of them, like are bringing it on themselves because if you look at a lot of comedians Instagram and stuff like that they post a lot of crowd work because they need content to promote right they need content i got to get that instagram going i got to get that fucking people are going to forget about me if i don't put a fucking clip up of me saying yuck yucks they got to get it up there right but they don't want to sell their jokes they don't want to put their jokes online so what they do is they'll do crowd work record that and then put that and i think
Starting point is 01:03:37 that incentivizes people to or trains them to be like, oh, crowd works part of this. I could be part of the show. Yeah, I was very curious about how I was going to play out. And it's kind of playing out the way I thought it would, which is like audiences are getting more to the point where they feel entitled to be part of the show.
Starting point is 01:03:55 Yeah, emboldened. But, you know, you got to promote. Got to promote it. Especially if you're a comedian, man.
Starting point is 01:04:02 There's a lot of people out there that are comedians. You can't throw a rock without hitting a comedian these dudes. Everybody's funny. Everybody's funny. I used to know funny. You know what I learned? I don't know funny. Simmy was right after all these years.
