Episode Date: July 23, 2025

On this episode of The Adam and Dr. Drew Show, the guys react to Hunter Biden’s recent profanity-laced interview, and discuss his claim that President Joe Biden was taking Ambien—promptin...g Dr. Drew to explain the serious risks of giving the drug to elderly patients. Adam shifts gears to talk about the massive amount of water wasted daily, and the two reflect on the lost art of following instructions in today’s distracted generation. Dr. Drew also brings up Adam’s recent interview with Steve Guttenberg, which leads to a hilarious discussion about the sad state of the sandwiches their mothers made growing up—especially Adam’s mom, who didn’t make them at all.

Starting point is 00:00:00 Live at Corolla One Studios with Adam Corolla and board certified physician and addiction medicine specialist Dr. Drew Pinsky. You're listening to the Adam and Dr. Drew show. Yeah, get it on. Got to get a check. The government, the government, the dude, both that's it. That's it. That's it.
Starting point is 00:00:21 Specialist. Who? What's going on there, Drusky? Dude, so much. Let me start with Hunter Biden. I'm curious if you saw his interview and your thoughts on that. Bits of it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:00:35 Well, you know, you only needed bits. You can get the flavor right away. Well, it's true. I mean, there's a couple, there's a couple thoughts I have. Yeah, I figured. Okay, so one thing, and I realize, it's a real elitism thing, and I don't have it, but it's only because I grew up in filth
Starting point is 00:00:52 with people who... It's like the conversations I have with women my entire adult life. Well, you gotta have a maid. Oh, yeah. And I go like, well, just clean your toilet. And they go, no, what are you talking about? And I'm like, what do you mean what am I talking about?
Starting point is 00:01:08 I never knew anyone, maids were from TV. Oh yeah, oh my God. They're from TV. What is it, what came to my house? What the fuck are you doing? You're hanging, you're in the house, go clean it. By the way, forget about, sort of, from a cleanliness standpoint.
Starting point is 00:01:26 To me, it's not a monetary thing, it's not a cleanliness thing, it's kind of an emotional thing. Like, I don't know, come on in, poor lady. Oh yeah. And clean my toilet. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:01:38 It's weird. I don't like it, but the whole point is, is it's almost alien for me. And then so Hunter Biden is going, you need these people. They clean your room. These people, they clean your toilet. They make your food. They clean your house.
Starting point is 00:01:53 It's like, well, that's how you grew up. I just got back from Wisconsin. The maids are white in Wisconsin. I got news for you. When you walk out of your hotel room and go down the hall, there's a 57 year old white chick standing there pushing a cart. So it's this weird kind of coastal elitism thing all the time. Who's going to do all your stuff? And by the way, isn't that illegal to go under the minimum wage that we fought so hard to
Starting point is 00:02:19 get? You don't want to pay more than 50 cents for a head of lettuce, do you? Well, if it's going to exploit people, then yes, I'd like to. I said 1 million times, Drew. Yeah. I will pay whatever it costs to reasonably grow a head of lettuce. Yes. Where someone gets compensated properly. Yes. But I feel the same way about purchasing an automobile. Yeah. You want to pay more than $4,000 for a new car? It's like, well, yeah, if it means the people in the factory get paid and everyone gets paid. Yeah, that's.
Starting point is 00:02:51 Oh man, he looks, does not look good when you see it. They put his video up here on the wall for us. And the one thing I want you to watch for it, there's the way if you can see the white of the eye above the iris between the eyelid and the iris you know what I'm talking about between the color part and the eyelid. Only three things do that. Mania, hyperthyroidism, stimulus. Oh well also so there's this thing where he's you know getting mad about we need basically slaves to take care of white people here. They don't know how racist they sound. They don't get it. But it's the same thing when they're talking about black people not being able to get ID.
Starting point is 00:03:34 It's the same thing. You sound like a zookeeper. You know what I'm saying? Yes, you sound like what you are, elite. Listen, I don't know what your Katrina was, but I would yell into the microphone during the Katrina when they're like, these people are all in the sports, they're all in the mega dome raping and killing each other. Who's in charge?
Starting point is 00:03:53 It's like, you don't know how racist, you're saying, of course you take black people and put them all together in the super dome, they're gonna rape each other. Cause that's what you would say about an animal. Yeah. Right? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:06 Awful. All right. Anyway. So then he goes into this thing with his dad. Yeah. He's traveling around the world. They're shooting ambient in him. He keeps traveling around the world. He's at Camp David. He's going to bed at 8. Well, it's worse than that. I have traveled around the world as well, but then you come home and you have two weeks. Camp David, he's going to bed at eight. Well, it's worse than that. I have traveled around the world as well, but then you come home and you have two weeks.
Starting point is 00:04:30 But let me defend Hunter Barton on one front and get this out of the way. And to be clear, I wish him no ill. I'm worried about his survival, frankly. I've been worried about it for a long time. He has severe addiction. I've seen no evidence that he's doing anything to treat it actively. And if when you have severe addiction like that, it always comes back and it always gets worse. But having said that, again, severe addiction like he has
Starting point is 00:04:53 always comes back, always gets worse, his life is in danger, let's state it for what it is. But there's an interesting kind of amusing part of this. The left is always going around trying to find, we're gonna be more authentic, we got to use the F-bomb. We got to figure out what they're, we got to be more like Joe Rogan. He's authentic. I'll give Hunter that. He is authentically what he is. And I would say he's high, but good for him. It's authentic. This is what he's achieved. So good times. And he talks about going down and invading El Salvador and he also interrupts the the questioner a lot notice that Oh, yeah, that's a plan. Oh, yeah. That's another feature of these things. I was talking about. Hmm mania stimulants
Starting point is 00:05:35 So it's we watch a little bit Like all these Democrats say you have to talk about and realize that people are really upset about illegal immigration. Fuck you. How do you think your hotel room gets cleaned? How do you think you have food on your fucking table? Who do you think washes your dishes? Who do you think does your fucking garden? Who do you think is here by the fucking sheer fucking just grit and will that they figured out a way to get here because they thought that they could give
Starting point is 00:06:07 Theirselves and their family a better chance and he's somehow convinced all of us that these people are the fucking criminals And I didn't see the white of the eye thing. I saw that in one part of the interview Anyway, you look he sounds a little bit dumb. Mm-hmm and he has a little bit of his dad's sort of retarded moxie. Yeah. You know, he's like, hey, fat, you want to do some push-ups? You know, and he's like, okay, somebody said something you disagreed with. Well, let's go back to the Ambien. Let's go back to the Ambien. Ambien black box warning, I believe, check this for me, guys, should not be given over the age of 70. It's not to be given
Starting point is 00:06:44 to elderly patients. Definitely not to be given to elderly patients with Parkinsonism. They fall. So who gave him Ambien? I don't. First off, we don't know that he was taking Ambien. That's Hunter Biden's... Look, Joe Biden is the president and Joe Biden has a schedule. And I'm not the president. But what ends up happening, if you can compare a little bit, I'm not here to make it about me. But I just got back from a racetrack. Yeah. And it's a big racetrack. And I should have prepared.
Starting point is 00:07:20 But I'm so fucking busy going into it, doing dates and working and stuff, that I didn't take ample time to really study something I needed to study. So I get it, you're the president. So you travel around, but first off, nobody called it a day faster than Joe Biden. No one did less pressers and took more vacation times.
Starting point is 00:07:43 And you did all this, you know, work around the world. And then you carved out like 12 days or something where you came back and you just secluded yourself and you went to Camp David and you worked on debate prep. So this thing where it's like you just walked off an airplane and you didn't know what time zone you were in. like you just walked off an airplane and you didn't know what time zone you were in. Right. By the way, I could do. Yeah. I could do it. Yeah. And Mark Cuban could do it. So could Mark Garrigos and anyone named Mark. The point is, Mark Wahlberg. Yes, I could walk off an airplane in any time zone and take a one hour nap, take a shower, get dressed, and walk out on stage and deliver my debate. Yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 00:08:27 So he had two weeks. So that's not being given ambient and pushed out on stage. Right. Off of your world tour. But I agree. What was the timeline on that? I think he had like 11 days, whatever it is, more than a week. More than a week is more than ample time, especially with your handmaidens around you,
Starting point is 00:08:54 cooking you meals and looking after you and stuff. That's a lot of relaxation. Yeah. All right. Well, and let's reemphasize, it should never be given ambient, that age group just shouldn't happen That is a big deal that they were doing that and and again, why does he have that?
Starting point is 00:09:11 Osteopath between him and the Walter Reed doctors makes me wonder if it's stuff like this Get stuff like this when he wants it. Mm-hmm. So yeah Well, like I said, I mean, if you listen, well, so, chip think, but it's sort of what I've been screaming about my whole adult life, which is, you're not allowed to construct something that never happened and then use it as a reason as to why the result didn't come out the way.
Starting point is 00:09:46 You know, if I go... You construct a non-reason. If I go, yeah, if I go, well, Adam, you failed the test on Monday. And I go, yeah, well, and they go, well, why didn't you study over the weekend? And I said, they were building the Empire State Building next door to me and I couldn't sleep, I couldn't concentrate, but nothing was going on? Well then, you're a liar, right? But also, you're not allowed just to,
Starting point is 00:10:13 but here's what I'm saying, the pussy who's interviewing him goes, wait a minute, your dad was in Camp David for two weeks, like a fighter going to camp, for two weeks doing mock debates with a staff of sparring partners. What do you mean, Ambien? What are you talking? By the way, tell me, I'm confused. They gave me Ambien the day of or night before?
Starting point is 00:10:41 I thought he had a cold. Didn't he have a cold? That's what they said. Also, did you, oh, you got something? Yeah, I got he had a cold. Didn't he have a cold? That's what they said. Also, did me, oh, you got something? Yeah, I got a cold 36 hours. Listen. What do you got? So, interesting, they say you,
Starting point is 00:10:55 it's not recommended to give it to patients over 70, but Google, the way the AI answer was framed, it does appear like that's a question that was asked a lot in the past 24 hours. And Google AI also, it felt like it was like, well, it's not a hard and fast rule. It's not a hard and fast rule, but it is a verges on malpractice. I mean, doctors can do whatever the fuck they want. No, but you don't, you don't, if the, if the, you don't know where Andrew's going. Oh, where's he going? You don't know where Andrew's going. Oh, where's he going?
Starting point is 00:11:25 I think where he's going is, is Google kind of softened it up a little bit. Yeah, that's what it looks like. See where he's going? Drew never knows where Andrew's going. But the point of the matter is, here's how it works. Doctors can do whatever the fuck they want. Even if there's a black box warning. If there's a warning and the patient gets the ambien
Starting point is 00:11:45 and then falls, well that doctor's now in big trouble. That's how it works. It's not that there's some law that says you can't give the ambien. It's that it is considered inappropriate, unethical, risky, etc. Anyway, but do me a favor and look, also scroll through his video and see if you can find video with his eyes open Oh, no, no, no, because I'd like to see just quickly quickly All right, then quickly because I want to see if I actually saw that I I didn't I didn't notice anything But I didn't watch the whole thing. Yeah um
Starting point is 00:12:17 but He then so he kind of starts off By talking about who's gonna fluff your pillow and who's going to do your dishes. You do your dishes. I don't even do dishes. I just have one dish. I just leave it in the thing and then I rinse it off and then I just use it the next time. It's my dish.
Starting point is 00:12:37 That's how I roll too. And the women are like, your throat's disgusting. I'm like, why is it disgusting? I just cleaned it off. It's mine. I'm the one that used it. Yeah, well, that's a, I'm the one that used it. Yeah, well that's a,
Starting point is 00:12:47 make the same argument with the towel. It's just a towel and then it's my towel and then it's dry and then I'm gonna use it again. Okay. Do you know, Drew, I'm gonna tell you something. It's Madison Avenue again, I think. Got to women.
Starting point is 00:13:03 Do you know how much energy, water, and resources Madison Avenue fooled white chicks into wasting annually in this country? It is Hoover Dam worth of- Not only that, you get the phosphates in the dishwasher and the laundry detergent, it was really a problem for a long time. My washing machine and the dishwasher runs 24-7.
Starting point is 00:13:30 And I'm like, the stuff is fine, just rinse it off and put it in the rack. The towel doesn't need to be washed. It must be tough to be you. You walk around, you walk around with it. Well, it's such a colossal waste of energy and water. It's like things are constantly, me, me, me, dryers going, things running the cycle.
Starting point is 00:13:52 The dishwasher's fucking three hours. And I'm like, I don't need it. I have a bowl. I'll rinse it with hot water, I'll put it on the rack, and then I'll use it again. We don't need any of it. Yeah. It's gotta be sterilized. We're in a hospital.
Starting point is 00:14:06 Oh, there it is. Yeah, that's the stair. See, it's called the stair. It's called the stair. You see that? Describe to the listeners, Drew, what you see. He is looking his... It's not quite the way you normally see it, but he's got... There it is, on that right eye. The eyelid is higher above the iris than it should be, his right eye or left. And very few things do that. And if he were enraged when he was talking there, maybe you could argue that's a thing.
Starting point is 00:14:34 Well, he's enraged the whole time. Well, but he's agitated the whole time, which is a different thing. And so I think there's your smoking gun. So he did a few things that I appreciate. He did a whole thing about who's gonna clean your dishes, basically. Look, you're coming across like a Creedence song, I ain't no Senator son. You know what I mean? Like you're coming across as a guy who's never worked a day in his life.
Starting point is 00:15:02 It's one Creedence song that I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. You don't know anything? I don't. Well, I know the, you know, Bayou songs and stuff. Okay, now, it ain't me. Oh, I know that. I ain't no senator.
Starting point is 00:15:14 Oh, is it that one? I didn't know that was the words. Oh, God, true. There's nothing. There's nothing for you. I don't listen to the fucking words. You don't listen to anything. That's true.
Starting point is 00:15:22 Now listen to me. I listen to you. I do. Okay, so he's coming across as what he is. Yeah. This pampered kid of privilege whose daddy was, you know, in the Senate for 52 years. And then he goes ahead to call out some names. This name, Ron Klain, that name, this person, that person,
Starting point is 00:15:41 just making money off of these people, you know, just going out to lunch or going out to dinner on these people with their names and stuff like that. And it's like, well, that's the next thing you're getting accused of, which is trading on your name and going abroad and getting paid. How that works. Well, you wouldn't have known.
Starting point is 00:16:04 Could you imagine that growing up, that there was such a thing? Well, my dad was an international player. You know him. He was on a few board. Oh my god. And they just put, I went him up on the mast, he didn't actually have to go in and do anything. Right. You want to see Jim Carolla. Just the name. Just the name.
Starting point is 00:16:20 Yeah, that brought, yeah, yeah, yeah. Like Shaq doesn't build the cruise liners, he just does the commercial. But he riles off a name of political folks trading on the prestige and getting paid. Which is like, that's all you did was travel around and get paid. You're on the board of a Ukrainian energy company. Like, I mean, could you imagine?
Starting point is 00:16:47 No. Can you imagine just me saying to my son, hey, guess what, new job. You're on the board of Burisma Natural Gas in Ukraine. And she'd look at me and go, why? What does that have to do with anything? I don't know what I know about fracking, right? Okay, I think we have another clip here
Starting point is 00:17:14 Fuck him fuck him fuck him and everybody around him I don't have to be fucking nice number one. I agree with Quentin Tarantino fucking George Clooney is not a fucking actor He is a fucking like I don't know what he is. He's a brand. And by the way, and God bless him. You know what? He supposedly treats his friends really well. You know what I mean? Buys them things. And he's got a really great place in Lake Como. And he's great friends with Hold on a second. It's funny. Everything he does is material. He buys stuff for people, which is like him going so that his definition of a good friend is somebody buys shit for him. Yeah. You know what I mean? And he's got a house, a second house near a lake. Yeah. You know what I mean? Like he's so telling when he's talking. Yeah. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:17:58 Yes. That reminds me of like Kelly Osborne, like who's going to clean your toilets? Oh, OK, but you've never cleaned a toilet. Yeah. I cleaned a toilet earlier today. Nobody, no, you what? I cleaned a toilet earlier today. I like doing my own shit. I'll do my own dishes, I'll clean my own toilet. I don't care.
Starting point is 00:18:15 It is interesting how people don't hear what people are saying. You know what I mean? They just take it on the surface, they don't interpret, they don't. Yeah, his thing is, George Clooney's a bad actor, but he's a good friend because he buys his friends stuff. And he's got a house that their friends could maybe use. You know what I mean? That's his definition of a true friend. Someone who buys him stuff. All right, sorry, I'm gonna play it on.
Starting point is 00:18:37 ...and he's great friends with Barack Obama. Fuck you! What do you have to do with fucking anything? Why do I have to fucking listen to you? What right do you have to step on a man who's given 52 years of his fucking life to the service of this country and decide that you George Clooney are gonna take out basically a full-page ad in the fucking New York Times to on me and James Carville who hasn't run a race in 40 fucking years and Stare stare there one success in his political life And that was Barack Obama and that was because of Barack Obama not because of fucking David Axelrod, who had one success in his political life, and that was Barack Obama. And that was because of Barack Obama, not because of fucking David Axelrod. And David Plouffe and all of these guys, and the Pod Save America guys, who were junior
Starting point is 00:19:12 fucking speech writers on Barack Obama's Senate staff, who have been dining out on the relationship with him, for years making millions of dollars. The Anita Duns of the world who's made 40, 50 million dollars off the Democratic Party, they're all going to insert their judgment over a man who has figured out, unlike anybody else, how to get elected to the United States Senate. I don't disagree with him, by the way. No, they're all leeches, but he's won too. I mean, I don't go on this podcast and go, I don't like this other guy's podcast. He just wants to talk about vintage car racing and the human condition. And then he complains
Starting point is 00:19:51 all the time. I'd be like, I feel a little uneasy about doing that because I realized, well, that's kind of me. You know what I mean? This is a guy. I feel so bad for him. What about dining out on? This is a guy. I feel so bad for him. You want about dining out on. That's the definition. You're dining out on your dad. I know. I really, I've got deep empathy for this guy. Really? Yeah, I do. Because he just such a, he is such a drug addict. And I just see it operating and he's a super smart guy. Probably, you know, one of the guy you interviewed this is smartest guy Joe Biden knows that's right ever met never talked to him about business so I don't know how smart how do you know he's so smart he's just doing math equations on Air Force two or never talked about his business smartest guy you know okay the business partner that you interviewed what was his name yeah yeah what's his name? Yeah, I'll tell you. What was his name? I'm sorry. I can't remember it
Starting point is 00:20:47 Sorry the B. Anyway, yeah He said he was a great guy Remember before he got deep in his addiction and all this crazy shit and and that's that's something I have empathy for I do I do yeah But I but if he does bad shit in his disease that's on him. Yeah, he could get better. He's not yeah, so Yeah, sad. It's all very sad to me and the fact that these are the people kind of in there running our country And he's right. The other people are just as bad. He's not wrong. Yeah I think I'm think of a guy you got it. I know a guy named Gary Boboloff
Starting point is 00:21:23 I know a guy named Gary Boboloff and My head right now Bobolins Bobolins, right Bobolins. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, so that's the business partner.

Pluto TV, stream now, pay never. All right, Drew, here's the subject. I think it's a bigger thing than people know. Sandwiches? Well, not as big as, I mean that's very symbolic.
Starting point is 00:23:48 Oh my God, I saw you in your Steve Guttenberg, I almost jumped out of my chair. Oh. Toasted rye bread? Toasted rye. What the hell? What, who is, I knew Guttenberg's mom loved him. Yeah, I know you said that. I knew it. I knew he was. It's so, Adam, I'm feeling the more you bring up the sandwich,
Starting point is 00:24:05 the more deprived I feel. Well, you got a shit sandwich. I got a shit sandwich. What was your mom's shit sandwich again? Bologna and lettuce, white bread, soggy bread, cause the lettuce just went right through. Maybe some mustard in there sometimes. Just basically, the reason that the sandwich
Starting point is 00:24:28 is a perfect symbolic measuring stick is because you are compelled to feed your child. Yes. Nobody, not many people dip below that Mason-Dixon line of literally not providing some sustenance. Back then especially. Yes. Now then, what are you feeding them?
Starting point is 00:24:51 And if the answer is the least amount of effort possible, the least amount possible, then your shit sandwich mom, right? So it's the least amount in cost. This is a way to offset it. You can hire a professional sandwich chef to show up every day at noon, but that would cost something. You could get some good high quality, you know, roast beef or whatever from the deli at the Gelson's or something, but that would cost something as well. So also I
Starting point is 00:25:21 had a white bread with cheese, just American cheese white bread, not melted or anything? No. No. No toaster. Well. That was the one I liked because it wasn't soggy from those stupid lettuce.
Starting point is 00:25:33 Right, now so my mom would have never done white bread. So bread was out. And back then, if you said, we're not doing white bread, we're not doing sliced loaf brand name, it was pretty thin pickings, slim pickings on the bread department. It wasn't the vast variety of whatever.
Starting point is 00:25:56 So bread was tough, but my mom had a saying. Uh oh, this should be awesome. Well this is where it dips into no sandwich versus shit sandwich. Yeah. Versus Steve Gutenberg toasting rye. Toasted rye. Thin rye. Thin rye. Andrew, what kind of bread did your mom toast? Sourdough. Sourdough. I think I remember. Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!
Starting point is 00:26:27 Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!
Starting point is 00:26:34 Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!
Starting point is 00:26:40 Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! bikes in a circle, fast, I'd play football. Literally, I'd play catch with myself. I'd throw the ball in the air and run down the street and catch it and throw it back the other way. I was like an animal. And I'd come back in panting and I was so fucking hungry.
Starting point is 00:26:54 And I would look in the fridge for a, put my head in it, shut the door, like with purpose, then I'd open the cupboard and I'd shut the door and then I'd mope around the kitchen. I'd pout and then I'd come back and open kitchen. I'd pout, you know, and then I'd come back and open the fridge door again and shut it. You know, slam it shut. Yeah, and then at some point I would say to my mom
Starting point is 00:27:12 in frustration, I'd go, there's nothing in this house to eat. And she'd say, if you're hungry, you'll eat. Oh, I mean, eat her shit, you'll eat. Whatever, there's flour. Yeah. It's like baking soda Whatever, there's flour. Yeah. It's like baking soda and raisins and stuff. You could, if you're hungry, you don't like what's in here. Wow.
Starting point is 00:27:32 And neither does anybody. Right. But I got unsalted raw peanuts in a sack over there if you want that. I mean, she's basically saying if you're on an island and you got to survive, you would eat those unsalted, unroasted peanuts. One thing I will give your mom, I just realized there's one thing we have to give her. She did not fall for the Madison Avenue shit. No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:27:57 She did the opposite of the Madison Avenue shit. She thought that was all poison being peddled. She was right. She was right. She was right. Yeah. So she was right in the, she was wrong in the right way. She wouldn't buy a loaf of Wonder Bread and a thing of Skippy peanut butter
Starting point is 00:28:16 if you put a gun to her head. But that's all, that would have taken care of me. Yeah. If you, if she had, I'm now going to add this to my list, I was a basketball hoop, a dog, and a loaf of Wonder Bread and a jar of Jif peanut butter away from a decent childhood. Yes. Because that would have taken care of it for me. I would have sat there, made my own peanut butter sandwiches. I would have had my dog by my side and then me and my dog would go out to the driveway and I would shoot
Starting point is 00:28:49 free throws. And that would have taken care of my childhood. But minus those three things, it was tough because there was nothing, anything inside the house. So I had a, I had the zero sandwich. And yes, my mom did not buy in to anything white, anything processed, anything that Madison Avenue was pitching. Let's give her with her due. Well, to be fair to her, they were also selling new Fords and Hawaiian vacations and stuff. She didn't buy into any of it. There was nothing you could advertise to her that she would purchase.
Starting point is 00:29:23 Can we get to that topic that I interrupted with the rice sandwich? You said there was a topic. People, I'm realizing there's a problem and the problem is concentration and instruction following. And I tell people like a lot of the time, I'll go, go out, take this thing, pop the hatch in my car, and pull the box out of the,
Starting point is 00:29:48 and I'll watch them through the window, open the side door and be looking around, and I was like, no, no, pop the hatch, pull it out of the back. They don't, they don't walk 10 feet, it's gone. And I realized that... I worry that weed's doing that. I think it's, it's a big problem.
Starting point is 00:30:06 And it's not all wheat at all. It's not all. I see it, I see it in everybody. And so I did a thing where I was thinking about, so I got down to road America and down to Elkhart, Lake Wisconsin, very big track, very big racetrack, over four miles, which is a large loop. And I went out there like an idiot and I realized I have no idea what's going on on this racetrack. And there's
Starting point is 00:30:31 a lot of elevation changes and stuff. There are parts where you're going up a hill and you go under a bridge and you do not know if you turn right or left. I didn't know. Which is not only dumb, it's dangerous and it makes you exquisitely slow. I don't know what people think. People think you get in your car, you go on a racetrack and you drive fast. You know you don't. You find every line, everything's got a different line, and a marker. And so I got... Should you have walked the track or driven it? Should've, oh yeah. So I got into the, I saw they were doing laps, like pace laps, you know, at lunch.
Starting point is 00:31:14 Like fun laps. Parade, cars, people could pull out in their street cars if they belonged to the Aston Martin club of, you know. Right. Sheboygan, and you could go out there and do some laps and whatever, slow. So I found like the guy with the most laps around there who's a club guy, the home track guy,
Starting point is 00:31:34 because it works at the track. And I go, I'm getting in the passenger seat and we're getting in this Camry and we're going about 35 miles an hour all the way around this track. And so he said, yeah, okay. And then there's 14 turns. And he goes, end of the straight, front straight,
Starting point is 00:31:52 see that pit exit, pit wall exits, mark got orange on it, that's your breaking point. That's your breaking point. And then it's all the way out, so the rumble strips on the left, end of the rumble strips. That's your turn in, turn in. This late apex, and there's a concrete pad, aim for the end of the rumble strips. That's your turn in. This late apex and there's a concrete pad, aim for the middle of the concrete pad. Then when you exit this turn, there's a bridge
Starting point is 00:32:13 and it says fuel on it. Aim for the U. You aim for the U. You drive toward the U. Once you pass that, there's bathrooms. this is like big campgrounds and stuff. There's bathrooms way on the other side of the track. There's a building, it's a half mile away. Aim for the men's room door. You point your car toward them, you pass this, another track exit, brake, lane effect. We come around this, there's the big semi truck.
Starting point is 00:32:40 It's painted on the side of the bridge. It says Sargento Cheese. Aim for the rear wheels. And then after that, you gotta painted on the side of the bridge. It says Sargento Cheese. Aim for the rear wheels. And then after that, you got to aim for the word people. It says word cheese people. Aim for that. Once you go under that, there's a billboard that's a mile, big white billboard. You aim for that black. And he just, every single, everything. Aim for, see that blue outhouse? When you exit this turn, you point your car toward that blue outhouse you break When you pass this sign that marker that that break in the concrete wall or something
Starting point is 00:33:13 I did I did Two or three laps, I think I did three laps and then I did two laps times 14 corners and then I said Okay, let me, you don't talk this one, let me talk. So I was like, break, break, end, turn out, rumble strip, turn in, late apex, pretty basic stuff.
Starting point is 00:33:33 It's a couple little spots like turn 11, where I was like, what? Okay, break at the end of the fence, turn in and whatever. Wait, break here or turn in here? I, you know, there's a couple. But I just repeated back to him every single thing he said to me after the third whatever. And then the next day during the parade laps at noon,
Starting point is 00:33:53 I said, this time I'm gonna drive and don't say anything unless I fuck something up. And I did 14 turns on a four mile track. Each one had two You know some of that stuff was from it varied from the outhouse in the distance to the painting of the truck to the light Tower over there to the break in the wall with the cone on it That's your thing in it and I basically just repeated everything back to him and he goes yeah All right, and then I went out in the track at speed now
Starting point is 00:34:21 And he goes, yeah, all right. And then I went out in the track at speed. Now you're averaging 80 miles an hour. You go faster in certain spots, we probably average 80. And I saw everything and I did everything. I'm not as good as if I'd done it 25 times. You started this by saying that you were dumb and didn't prepare.
Starting point is 00:34:39 It sounds like you- I didn't prepare. I should have done that shit on a Wednesday. I should have done that shit before I ever got into a car. I was out in the track not knowing, but I said I better fix this. And then I memorized everything he said and then I implemented it.
Starting point is 00:34:53 And then I realized that's, I'm verbal, I didn't read it. You know, if you told me to read this pamphlet, he did. He goes, I got a whole thing. I go, I don't wanna do that. I'm getting in the car and you tell me everything and I will literally It's called experiential learning. Download it. Way better.
Starting point is 00:35:09 And then I realized at race speeds in the middle of the race, I saw the Sargento truck. I saw the outhouse. It's how people become surgeons. You know what I mean? It's the same thing. Right. We've somehow lost this thing. I don't do much of it. I tell people here like go to the back and grab the broom and the dustpan and bring it back and they'll come back holding a pillow.
Starting point is 00:35:29 And I'll go like, what happened? And they'll go, ah. It's like, we lost it from here to there? Yeah, so the question is, is that lack of concentration? Or lack of memory or lack of function? Or is it injury from something? A lot of questions there. I think it's, I think there's a will.
Starting point is 00:35:50 You know, if I go, look, I'm gonna give you $10,000. I'm gonna tell you to go to the back, there's three items, bring them all back, I'll give you $10,000, get one wrong, get nothing. They go, oh, well that's different. Which I don't like, I don't like the oh now. You know what I mean? But I just, I just thought I just remembered every spot of this track and I I'm good that way. But people need to work at it a little bit.
Starting point is 00:36:15 And by the way, it'll save your life. Like I was driving through this track with 40 cars on the track at high speeds and I could see all the spots he told me to look at. All right, I am gonna be in Portland at the Aladdin Theater, which is a cool old theater, August 7th, Portland, Oregon.
