Starting point is 00:00:00 Welcome back to the basement yard today. I'm joined by Danny low Priori Um, oh my god, did you hear that? It was a big crack my shoulders I thought that was your chair for a second. No, my shoulder just like popped out of its socket. Here we go. Yeah, we're all fucking Oh, you're all right. Good night. No, I think I you know my rotator cup. So jeez sound like a fucking like retired offensive lineman I think that's terrible. I think that's right. You know what it is. I threw a lot of pictures when I was younger All right, right. I'm serious. I was a good pitcher First of all, I was but I'm talking about like super young when I was super young like little league world series young Like you could have been like a prospect. Oh like uh, no, you're talking like t-ball
Starting point is 00:00:40 I mean, yo, I played in like this town. You know what I mean? I didn't play like travel I mean, I did play travel a little but not like town is huge though So you were a really good pitcher. I was a good pitcher I was like you were very very good Oh, I'm not saying like I'll highly tout it coming out of the draft this kid. You gotta sign this nine-year-old Like henry rome gardener No, but I was a good pitcher and so they would just pitch me every game which is probably highly illegal Yeah, probably but but when you're a kid you probably have like that rubber arm a little bit. Yeah, you're older
Starting point is 00:01:12 Yeah, your shoulder cracks. Yeah Oh fuck that. It's a mess Anyway, me me and danny we uh, we were out at a bar. Do you have like last week or some shit? Yes, we were and I don't even know how it came up. I think you brought it up I think I was like one or two Like hardsiders over the over the limit. So then I started talking about um You know, it would be cool to find out where your ancestors were really no We were talking about if you could go back and live in that time period
Starting point is 00:01:44 Right, or would you go visit or would you go visit like then when your ancestors like when they were young? Right and alive. Yeah And so I asked the question I go, Joe, wouldn't you want to do this and Joe just hits me with the most stone cold? No Yeah, no, I don't like he was basically what he was trying to get it was just like I think how it came up. You asked me like where in Italy are you from Yes, and I was like, I don't know And you're like, how do you not know and I went like full heart. I was like, you don't know
Starting point is 00:02:13 Yeah, he's like, what do you mean? You don't know Italian. You don't know what your family's from and I was like, no I have no idea. I I and I don't care Is that crazy? I don't think it's crazy But the only thing that I think's a little crazy is that how how fast you said no because like I don't what am I going to do with that information? Like you're thinking about it more than you did that night when we brought it up So maybe I might be able to sway. I think it just would be cool to know where your grandparents
Starting point is 00:02:41 Grandparents came from or to just see like old old Italy and shit I feel like everything was like sepia tones like back in like the 1800s. Yeah, everything A shade of brown That's just how I feel it was So you travel back to like like sepia themed Uh, Italy and like walk around and see what your family was like
Starting point is 00:03:04 Like burns in the corner like literally. Yeah, it looks like an old map. Yeah All like your eyes you're looking through a map. That's what it looks like. It's great None of that none of that entices you not at all. No I mean, I just don't care like when when people ask me like, oh, what's your heritage or whatever I say I'm Irish and Italian and the and they'll ask me like where in Italy. I was like, I have no idea But you've never even asked I maybe at one point right, but I but I forgot or I just don't and then we figured it out that night and I Be honest with you. I still don't know. I don't remember
Starting point is 00:03:38 Like that's how little I care about you know, we should do in here. We should do those ancestry DNA tests Do you know actually that actually find out where everybody's from that might happen? Uh You know, there there might be something in the future with me doing one of these Dude, you should you should do that and I guarantee you that would be One of the best episodes my sister just did it and we're like is it accurate though? I don't fuck I you have to believe them You like spit in a cup or you'd like jizz in a cup you send it to a lab
Starting point is 00:04:08 And I'm like, yeah, you're fucking 1% Egyptian or whatever think about how shitty that job is though It's like you're just handling miles and miles away just spits in a fucking tube And then they send it to you and you have to open it and pour it out. It's gross. I I mean I don't know it it never because like I I'm not that's that's another thing I kept saying that night I was like, I'm not from there. Right. I'm from here. Yeah, but you you said it way more like no, I'm not from there I'm from here. All right, so fuck that no because you were because you were blown away I was a little blown away that I was like, but I was like the hardsiders were
Starting point is 00:04:44 We're flowing we're flowing hard, but I was like Because in my eyes, I'm like knowing that information is not really gonna You know do I I understand that it's cool to know whatever like my parents aren't from Italy, right? They were born here And then I think my grandfather was born in Italy, but he spent majority of his life in the united states So it's like I don't really know anybody that was like from there So have you ever been there? No, I've never been to Italy. Would you go? Oh, of course. It's beautiful I gotta get over there too. I haven't been there either. Yeah, it's gorgeous. But uh,
Starting point is 00:05:19 Have you been there? No, but it's gorgeous. Oh, you gotta go you've been there. No You gotta go man. It's so beautiful I'm on google Yeah One of my friends one time he went like hiking or something. He's like, yo, you gotta check this place out I'm like, where is it? He goes. Yeah, it's like five hours upstate. I'm like check this out is not five hours away Yeah, no, that's usually like within. Yeah, I can get there within an hour. Yeah, you'll check out this place Five hours is I need to rent a hotel and stuff like at least two times. Exactly. No, thank you
Starting point is 00:05:52 He's like, yeah, you should you check this place out. What was the place? It was some it was like a hiking path, but it was like this crazy like when you get to the top a five hour way hiking path So you try five hours to walk five hours Yo, fuck first of all speaking of hikes. Fuck you speaking of hikes the other day Well, like last weekend or something like that. I went on a hike Where do you go to these hikes? They're in new jersey And it was like an hour and 15 away, right and the whole time my brother and his girlfriend are like They ran their new york city marathon like she was a college athlete. He was a college athlete. They're just yeah, they're savages
Starting point is 00:06:28 So they do this all the time. They just went to colorado. They were doing hikes there at fucking, you know 11,000 feet not breathing at all. Damn, you know, so they're just like chilling But we went on this hike It was so hard I was gassed. Did they tell you how many feet it was? I'm not sure It's one of those ones where it's literally like you walk straight for a couple things and then it turns into like 90 degrees I'm not even kidding you From the from the beginning until the midway point
Starting point is 00:06:58 You are climbing up rocks. There is no walking through the forest. There's no pretty It's like and there's signs because the whole time I'm on the way there. He's going like What sneakers are you wearing those sneakers? Oh, and I was like, yeah And he's like that's already a red flag and I was like, dude relax You're like you're going hard. Like I'll be fine. You know what I mean? Like I'm an athlete like I could I'll adjust it's whatever And he's like, all right And whatever and then he's saying like it's tough and like did you bring snacks?
Starting point is 00:07:26 Why do you keep hinting at all this horrible shit? I know I was like, yo, I think he was like joking or whatever because I always make fun of him But he then his girlfriend's going. Did you guys bring snacks? And I'm like, what? Yeah, what do you mean? And then she's like, did you bring water? I was like, yeah, I have water She's like, okay good Where you guys going fucking Mount Kilimanjaro? First of all, it's called breakneck ridge or something like that already already It's uh, and then we get there, right? We're walking There's a sign right before you start and it says this isn't a walk in the park
Starting point is 00:07:56 And it's like going off And immediately your first step literally is you have to step on onto this rock Then you walk up this little path and then it's just a a scent like you're climbing up rocks the entire time And when was this? This was like last week and I was so taught dude and then when you get up top There's like places where it's mad dangerous You you get up and it's like you climb up this rock
Starting point is 00:08:21 And then to the right of you. It's just a drop It's crazy. How long how long did it take you to get up there? Uh, not that long. We made pretty good time Uh But it probably took like maybe an hour and 15 and you have to walk all the way down It's your work first of all and walking all the way down that's what I'm saying It's probably just as hard It's but it's not climbing down you have to walk down like a side of the side of the mountain
Starting point is 00:08:44 But you're walking as if you're walking down A steep hill like you know how you have to bend your knees and kind of lean back You're like clapping kind of like when you're walking. Yeah. Yeah. It's it's like that the entire way down Yeah, I almost like the way up better than the way down my knees were killing me. I was like this is fucking psychotic Why do they hike so much? They're just they're just athletic. I don't know what you would you do in college? She played lacrosse. Oh, what's your brother do? He played football and lacrosse. Oh, they're so they're just full on sad Yeah, and he also fucking trained for the olympics like this kid doesn't stop
Starting point is 00:09:14 I forgot about that. He told me that and then they ran the marathon You think you'll ever run the merit. Have you ever? Dude, what would you think you could like run the marathon if like push comes to shove, right? And I was like, yo or somebody not me because I don't have any money But if somebody was like, yo, I'll give you $10,000 to run the marathon No shot and you get to train from What's today? December 3rd, right all the way to whenever that shit was a couple weeks ago. Yeah, no You think you could do it. No, I don't think I could do it. I think you could I don't think I could run half of it
Starting point is 00:09:46 I don't think you could run if you trained every day. I fucking hate running. Right. I hate it I can't do it. I don't see how anyone enjoys that. It's not enjoyable. No, I'm telling you I was standing out there and I was watching these people No one's happy and then like I was watching it too For my apartment and it was at that point where people start that running but like that run wheeze that you get Yeah, like they stopped shaking hands already like they were all fucked up drinking like Gatorade goo packs and shit There's no way I could do that. I would die. I would die I mean, I'm a little bit on the burlier side, but I've seen some burly guys run that marathon
Starting point is 00:10:22 Which is even crazier to me. Yeah, that's psychotic when you see people run the marathon and like kind of fat I'm like, how the fuck did you do that? Yeah? I don't know. I don't know. I just did it It's crazy too because my brother's not like a big guy. No, but he's Like I'm 182 pounds. He weighs less than I do But he you weigh 182. Yeah, we're gonna have to go to the tape on that Why I think you might be a little less. No, I'm I'm 182. I'm telling you right now. How tall are you? I'm 5 10 There's some fucking sexy stats right there
Starting point is 00:10:58 I'll put it in the work. You know what I mean? 5 10 182. That's a whole snack right there. There's a whole snack. That's a whole day of snacks So what is your brother way? So he weighs like a little bit less than like maybe like four pounds less than me or whatever But he looks like one of the bigger dudes out there, right and he's weighing like 177 175 And everyone's like thin. Yeah, you know what I mean? They're like thin because they this is all they do is they run and they're like I can't imagine that's good for your legs either. No, it has that's probably one of the worst Physical things that you could do for yourself. Yeah, it's it's psychotic man. He's run 16 miles my brother team point. No, it's 26
Starting point is 00:11:37 It's 26. Yeah, I thought it was 16.2. No, it's 26.2. Jesus christ Mike Keith ran a half marathon Keith ran a half marathon which is like 13 something but And he and he ran the whole way No, you got to stop It's not that you stop you stop. Most people stop. I mean like they walk like they And then they go back into it. Those people don't stop They're like marathon dudes. No, like those Kenyan dudes are just straight. Those dudes are fucking hauling ass. They run right through your tape
Starting point is 00:12:08 They run home after the people who are winning are averaging fucking five five minute six minute miles If I had to run a six minute mile right now, that's ridiculous It would take everything out of me and now if I only had to run one What do you what's the fastest you think you could run a mile right now? My freshman year of high school. I had to run one to pass. Hey, that's what I should hear But I want to hear no, but I feel like I'm in better shape now than I was back then Yeah, it could be but I uh, also you're older a little, you know, yeah, I ran it back then in 6 30 6 30. Yeah, I was around I was around there when I was
Starting point is 00:12:41 when I was A freshman sophomore junior Yeah, up till like senior because I I cheated on my senior one like I cut across the field To fucking shape like 45 seconds off. Yeah, because if you ran it Over 12 minutes, they made you run it again because they knew that you were capable of like it just shows that you're not running the mile right Like I was doing like six the fastest one I ever ran was like six 20 something and that's when I was in like really good shape and like
Starting point is 00:13:11 Went full hard. Oh and got after it if I ran a mile right now My taking 43 minutes And you best believe I'm stopping to take some walk breaks in that fucking bitch if I if I if I had A month to train for a mile. This is pathetic by the way Like I'm gonna be so depressed getting in the uber home. I'm gonna be like I should have ran home Yeah, yeah, I should have ran home should have walked home at least I think the fastest my body is capable of running a mile is like the absolute peak of my physical fitness is like 618
Starting point is 00:13:52 Dude, that's a very good. That's amazing. That's a great mile. But that's the peak and I Don't be fooled. I will never get there. Right. I will never do it. I just don't I hate it. I can't run I try so hard There was a point where I just finished a 12 week workout program and at the end of every single workout You're supposed to run for 15 minutes Uh two minutes like jog and then one minute. It's like kind of like 80. Yeah, it's like intervals. So I uh For the first four weeks I was on that treadmill kill and then one day I was like, I'm gonna skip it and then I never went back to
Starting point is 00:14:30 Just gone just gone for it. I'm never doing that again now. It's true. Cardio is the easiest thing to just be like nah Yeah, it's terrible. No, thanks that and dieting for me, which are the things that will If quickly get you in shape I cannot do I fall off of them so easily I'll be so good for like a month. Yeah, and then once you don't do it for a day You're completely off. Yeah, because yeah, because once you once you do make an excuse for that day It becomes an excuse for every day Like I've talked myself into why I could have like this popcorn shrimp And like I'll trick myself in the saying that it actually makes sense
Starting point is 00:15:08 I gotta be like, yo, I didn't have any popcorn shrimp yesterday So I could have a popcorn shrimp today. No, no, you can't It's not how it works, but yeah, it doesn't work like that. You know, it sucks about it too. It's like You spend so much time Trying to get in shape and maybe it takes you like Seven months to get in a really good shape. Yeah, but it takes a month and a half for it to just all be erased Like for me, I would know When I have to get back in shape
Starting point is 00:15:35 Well, I never have to but when I like don't want to be close to death anymore It takes me a full eight or nine months. Yeah till I get in shape To the point where like taking the garbage out Isn't like a near-death experience. All right, you know what I mean Sometimes I have the I have like two sets of stairs. You got to get up to this apartment. Sometimes we get to the top and be like, whoo Start looking at it together. Start looking at that or like you look up a new realtor You just like, yeah, I might have to move out of here. It's too many stairs. You know what I'm gonna do I'm just gonna install one of those old people things. Oh, yeah, sit in the chair. It takes you right up sideways too
Starting point is 00:16:13 Oh sideways. How fun is that? That's amazing. It feels like a like the teacup ride at fucking disney world I never Think about how expensive that would be to get like installed though, but I never understood Why They don't have them in like other places What the old people stuff? Yeah What do you mean? Like I don't see those side escalators like anywhere except for in somebody's house Oh, like at fucking sporting events or something. I know they have the regular ones like the regular escalators
Starting point is 00:16:42 I'm doing a funny hand motion right now. Yeah, okay, but um, I would never see those I would love to be able to like be able to have a chance where I can actually sit in one of them Well, that's because they have escalators and elevators. I know but uh elevators. Yeah elevators win elevators win I forgot about that. Boom wheelchairs done fixed it. Yes. Yes elevators Ever since I can remember to whenever I got old. I can't wait to be like, okay It's gonna sound weird. All right. I'm not gonna say I can't wait to be old because that's not true But I'm saying it's gonna be fun Because the way that I kind of envisioned it right you're born
Starting point is 00:17:18 And as a child you can do whatever you want. Yeah, because there's no and no one expects you to do anything Right, you could shit wherever you want. You can scream. You could just walk run around without pants on people aren't like Yeah, look at this dick or whatever right fully accepted. Whatever you want to do then you get to a certain age Where it's like this shit's over. I'd say it's like six seven where it's like this is over now Yeah, and it's weird because parents have to have that conversation and be like you can't shit on the floor anymore Dude, it's like dude. It's over. It's over. Go shit in the in the bathroom. Otherwise. I'm gonna hit you. You know Well, not anymore. You can't hit me. I can't hit kids anymore. Ridiculous. Yeah Should be able to pop them up one. Oh my god. Yeah, like not closed fist
Starting point is 00:17:58 But like open hand back of the head like Italian dad something you got to sting you got to sting them. You know what I mean? Like even with like my dog with a two finger backhand like the Yeah, watch what you say here. Yeah, I know Even with my dog like when I was training him If they're not listening at some point, I'm not taking my day out on them No, but like a pat on the ass just to give him like a ho. Yeah A little two finger in in the back thigh like a horse to give him the a cut it out
Starting point is 00:18:26 Yeah, because I mean Dude, I'll be honest my parents they got after it They did yeah, they got at dinner I'd be sitting there and have my seat was next to my dad and I'd say something He'd take his fork. Grab it right into my forearm. No way. Yeah, your dad stabbed you before my dad's Not like break the skin stab, but Yeah, that's what I mean. Like oh, yeah, he he was jabbing. Yeah, like trying like a prison tattoo. Yeah, jailhouse deal. Yeah, exactly Yeah, get out of here. Hey, and I'll say oh my dad one time. Hey dad. What's up?
Starting point is 00:18:56 My dad my dad one time me and my brother were cursing at each other and he heard us through the wall And my dad wears glasses right so when my dad would come into the room with no glasses on You knew somebody was either dead or you were about to die So he didn't stop. He didn't even stop to put his glasses on. He's just I'm just gonna he goes into a We used to call a blind rage. Yeah, because he used to have no glasses and be blind So the whole thing was is that he would get us like basically into a corner where you knew he was gonna smack one of us But if you were lucky enough that the other one got slapped you had a chance to run away, right? so this time
Starting point is 00:19:33 My brother Mike got slapped first and I had a chance to run away I shit you not this man grabbed me and lifted me off the ground. I swear with one hand by my head And yeah, and literally like a basketball and brought me back into the room and helped me and my brother's Heads in both hands like look I created these two monsters. Look at these monsters and he cracked our heads together. It's good cracked our heads together And the whole thing after it he goes if I had to come in this room I'm gonna have to crack your heads again, and I don't want to do it, but I will do it And me and my brother just looked at each other like, yeah, let's do this. Fuck. Yeah, this dude just fucking big showed us
Starting point is 00:20:17 And Like it was wwf and bashing our fucking head jungled you I was so scared of my dad after that That I think I didn't say anything out of line to him for like maybe 12 years Well, you know, you know what? Garbage was taken out that night. Oh dishes were done. Yeah laundry super folded super nice Terrified of that man One time my dad, this is a real story. This is like a famous story in our family uh
Starting point is 00:20:44 We me and Keith so In one of our rooms it would be me and Keith in a bunk bed On the bottom and then my oldest brother was on top. God that was like us too. My three of us in a bunk bed, right? and He would come in and like he's a big dude So you could hear him come on up the stairs and when you heard those footsteps like you heard You're like And I can I you know I was a I was a very good actor from a young age
Starting point is 00:21:11 You know what I mean? I could play the sleep card like phenomenally He comes in Keats over there smirking with his eyes closed I could see this so my dad just starts reaching for his belt And you're like, no, no, no, no You start holding up the sheets right to try and cushion the blow And even if I didn't do anything he would hit Keith and then I'd just be there And he just looking me and he would hit me and be like you're both roped in together
Starting point is 00:21:35 That's so funny that you say that but the fucking sheets Holding it up just soft in the vlog dude. I know exactly these fucking tactics Wait hold on hold on real quick. So what the story I wanted to get to is that me and Keith were fucking around Me and Keith were fucking around one time and uh, my dad for whatever reason was so mad at us and told us that He's like, you know what I'll do I'll cut your playstation in half with a mitre saw and make you stand behind it so all the shavings fly all over you Oh my god, and we were like, holy fuck
Starting point is 00:22:08 That's one of the one of the coolest and also one of the sickest things I've ever heard because as a kid Imagine somebody doing that to your fucking playstation cutting in half just dramatic and slow done it slow motion Just fucking playstation bitches bouncing off your face Just knowing how many hours you put in trying to beat these fucking games and your dad just not syphon filter Oh syphon filter was great double disc right the first one the second one was double disc. I'm not sure Well, another story about dad's destroying stuff. My dad got me got me a next tell an i90, right?

I know like my dad would only do it If my mom if my mom said to me me and my brother's like, I'm gonna tell your father. We're like, please don't Yeah, it's almost a fear that makes you scared that hurts more. Yeah, exactly.

Starting point is 00:24:00 Yeah, or we've just like repressed it so much that it's comedic to us now at no point that I ever feel like I was like abused or anything like that and that's and that's because it was it was a difference It was there's a huge difference in that because And no point I feel like oh my god, that hurts so bad and I look at it like this My dad slapped me in the house.

Starting point is 00:27:36 No one's ever called me greg. Oh, we were talking about how our dads weren't like, uh, the worst person in the world The worst person I feel it's kind of necessary. Yeah So you see now we're trickling down our entire lineage you're talking about italy now we're down to our dads Wow, look at that. Yeah, this is this is a linear podcast linear which is rare Which is rare, but linear is cool. I like linear sometimes. Uh, you know, it's funny when I first started doing podcasts I was doing a podcast with this woman k wolf And she is super like liberal and like, you know against she has a son and he's the fucking
Starting point is 00:28:15 He's a brilliant kid like weirdly brilliant and she doesn't hit him. She doesn't do any of that or whatever she talks to him like whatever Uh, and one of the first episodes we did I think it was within like the first 10. I think I had my sister and my mom come on and we talked about Hitting kids. Oh my god, and we were all on the side of like hey, sometimes you gotta jab him, you know She was so upset. It's so disgusting. No, she was she was appalled. She was appalled It was great, but it's like I don't know. I guess you grow up in different environments. I also feel like we both don't have kids So like it's hard for us to be like
Starting point is 00:28:54 You should be able to hit your kid every once in a while I guess when you have a kid you probably don't want to hit it But I know if I have a kid and he yells, I might want to want to pop it one. Yeah So when we say respectfully pop a respectful pop a jab. Let him know you're there. Let him know you're there Yeah, just like uh, yeah, you know, you know dogs like nip each other on the neck a little bit Yeah, exactly. Just letting you know i'm here. Nip them up. Just letting you know i'm here Exactly. I'm still the alpha in this bitch. Exactly. Like don't think I won't throw I'll take this elbow 12 6 you right now Big time big time big time
Starting point is 00:29:23 um Anyway, uh, another thing that came up that night was uh Some snacks some snacks here or meals if you want to talk about we're gonna bring this up, huh? This is a sensitive subject for me. I don't know how this came up But there was a full blown serious serious argument about totinos versus pizza bagels Do you want to reveal what side you're on? I don't remember what I said see that's bad news, but it's like I don't I think i'm kind of
Starting point is 00:29:51 I'm with either i'm i'm cool with either but if push comes to shove and they're like you can only eat one of these for the rest of your experience I would have to say totinos Pizza rolls pizza rolls And I know i'm gonna catch some flak for this, but sometimes I don't like the bread on the pizza bagel Yep, that's the only thing that throws me off. Yes, totinos when you cook them. There's most of the totinos Come burning inside of your mouth. Yes. I know I know burns your mouth off. I get it Does most of it
Starting point is 00:30:26 Actually fall out of the actual totino and on the side of the aluminum foil aluminum foil. Yes But I don't like the bread on bagel bites the bagel bites bread feels like it's made out of like Half you know what it's like it's like the outside of it feels like half of a handball. Yeah, it does It feels like it's a hit you cut a handball in half and then put pizza ingredients in it Yes, and you're like, why is this so hard? It's like insulation. Yeah, and it's like shiny and smooth. You're like, this is not bread I don't know what this is, but it's fucking not bread. That's what creeps me out about that It's just the bread the idea is great idea is there idea is there executions a little off And you know what I think itself is because I think they're cutting costs here
Starting point is 00:31:04 You could have went for the expensive bread and made us a good experience, but you're cutting costs Okay, your margins are going up, but your fucking quality is going down. I don't appreciate that Bagel bites had to be created by like stoners Yeah, like that. I'm gonna look it up or like Or a stoner's focus group where whoever makes them when and like, you know, what would you like to have to be like? Yeah, like little fucking pizza bagels Shits would be lit and they fucking did it and now they're billionaires. Yeah, I can't find it Uh, I would love a 30 for 30 30 for 30 on the creators of bagel bites. We should just do it
Starting point is 00:31:41 Let's just fund it. We'll do it start a Kickstarter. Just do her guys name was harry kats Harry kats created the bagel bite in 1970 1970 dude, this dude's been winning since the 70s harry kats 1970 I need to see a picture of this I need his net worth big time. I need his dick size. Yeah. Fuck. Yeah Harry. Yeah. Fuck. Yeah.

But yeah, I took his money and ran, you know If I if I had to get choose one and have one for the rest of my life, it would be totinos Here's what i'm gonna say to you. It's very dippable In what like a little bit of hot sauce Little bit of hot sauce a little bit of hot sauce in my life are you
Starting point is 00:32:45 Sometimes you gotta break out a song you gotta do it. It's fine hot sauce because you get the very dippable Okay, but you know what's crazy. This is gonna sound disgusting to most When I was younger my mom some nights, you know some nights my mom used to be like, all right Jesus, I don't know how she did it. We were all kids, you know, I mean relatively around the same age There's four of us sometimes we get crazy and she's like, I'm not making dinner tonight. Fuck this shit Yeah, so it'd be like Pizza bagels. Yeah, or she'd be like, we're fucking we're having pancakes. Yeah, chef boy or d.

That is cat food in there. Oh, oh, yes 100% but it's Yeah, I'm pretty sure like that's not sauce. It's like sort of it's like half blood And water that that ravioli Is so fucking good that Veronica That Veronica is one piece of But yes, here's what I'll say and this might this might throw you off. Okay
Starting point is 00:33:54 I take hot pockets over both. Yes, but here's the argument hot pockets is a more of like a sand It's it's out of the arena. Oh, no, it's not because here's why there's only shitty midnight food But there's only two to a package What the other ones are hors d'oeuvres Bagel bites and totinos or hors d'oeuvres, dude hot pockets goes on the plate brother Are hot pockets go on a plate hot pockets come to your table And these things get walked around by people with white gloves. Yes. Okay. Yes Totino's handed out the party. Yeah hot pocket

It's like you never had a lean pocket It's hot pocket. It's the same company that makes them, but they're like, are they healthy? Yeah What's in it like broccoli and cheese? That's disgusting. It's fucking gross, dude You think I want my broccoli while it's wrapped in this barely bread thing Yeah, I've never been drunk and be like, oh, I need some broccoli and cheese right now I'd roll the hot pocket, but I don't want to be unhealthy about it. Yeah. Yeah. I saw what they had like bacon egg and cheeses I'm like, oh, what would you ever try bacon? I would try it. I know

I don't know how they get that fucking syrup in that Pancake bun. I've never been more satisfied. Yeah eating something. I don't know how to explain it I'm upset you brought it up because it's it's 1 p.m. And we can't get it right now
Starting point is 00:35:48 But I would I would I would do things I would do things No, mcdonald's has all day breakfast now, dude. No, but not the McGriddle. It's fucking horseshit See, they know what they're doing. Yeah, they jerked everyone with that, but he didn't let him come You know what I mean? Bacon on your mcriddle or sausage mcriddle Bacon dude. All right. Just making sure just making sure I'm not even a sausage guy. Yeah, it's too salty for me I don't like it sausage Is a little more gross because I feel like it's closer to like what the pig actually was

I feel like burger king might have the best burgers Yeah, that flame that flame changing the game
Starting point is 00:39:13 Flame in the game. Love it so much white castle burgers. I would bite a desk I would bite this desk before I bit into that a white castle burger is like a couple ingredients away from being like A biological weapon. Yeah, it's that it's that I think it is a biological I think it's a couple ingredients away from being a toy that comes in a barbie set. Yeah, like it's plastic It's just fucked up and the little onions that they look like little pieces of glass Gross, I'll I'll I'll lead it though. Oh, yeah, I mean I'll crave great the shit out of this place.

Well, I mean See like I don't consider like Popeyes fast food. Oh, it's definitely fast food. It's fast food chain
Starting point is 00:41:22 but like I know it's like a fast food chain texture wise. You're talking about the behemoths here Popeyes We're talking about like the four dark horsemen of fast food. I haven't had those in a very long time It's like burger king and McDonald's are one. Yeah, and then you have Taco Bell You're gonna put mount rushmore of fast food right now is I'm not saying the greatest I'm saying the ones that affect that effect. All right. All right. It's taco bell Burger king mcdonald's. Mm-hmm. I guess wendy's is up there. Wendy's is up there and uh

Yeah, Popeyes is up there. All right Popeyes and uh, I don't know see mine would be

Yeah, those are like the four horsemen Yeah, I'm talking about the four dark horse. Yeah, the four dark horsemen It's a poop element to it. It's like in the Lord of the Rings those dudes with no faces on the dragons. Oh, yeah That's oh, yeah, you have a snack wrap. They're fucking flying over your house When you know, you know what you're gonna be dealing with two hours later and you still buy it and eat it
Starting point is 00:42:56 I used to play a game. There was a I before I could drive I lived like 12 blocks away from my mcdonald's So I'd go eat a mcdonald's and then try to walk home. It's like You try not to show yourself game. Yeah, okay. It's it's a lot of fun. What was your order when you were a kid? I used to get the number two I never got numbers. I was always just like let me get a bunch of shit. So I would now I know what now it is
Starting point is 00:43:21 It's a double cheeseburger. Oh, yeah, large fry shake And I might get a snack wrap I like snack wraps snack wraps are good. Oh, yeah And then for a while chickens. I like the wait Mcchickens changed my fucking life me and my buddy josh we used to go to mcdonald's like all the time Back when I had a metabolism that was sick Uh, and I would get two mcchickens A snack wrap large fry shake
Starting point is 00:43:53 And eat that and then not be able to sleep Obviously and sweat you're gonna the entire night get cold sweats Do you remember how easily you could destroy food like that? Like just crush it and not care though like a party and I would crush out sometimes I would drink like 20 something beers a night like disgusting. Yeah, and I'd be cool And then spend like another $30. I wouldn't even be bloated either Wake up the next day like fucking basketball and shit the next day I got fucking a rip six back the next morning like I'm chilling
Starting point is 00:44:21 Oh my god, what I would pay to go back to those days I'm just destroying fucking mcdonald's and having the metabolism. We're like a seven-year-old girl Yeah, you're either doing that or you're fucking murdering people apparently because I've been watching these like docs on nephalix uh of these kids that Uh, you know, there's a fucked up one. I think it's oh it's called lost for life. That's the name of the like the documentaries I I'm not shitting you. I put it on one night at like 11 30 when I was like kind of half asleep or whatever and it was dark like whatever and
Starting point is 00:44:53 I put it on the opening thing Is so fucking creepy like the music and stuff. It's like just what's it called lost for life I'm gonna go. I'm gonna watch when I go home. Dude watch it when you go home. The opening thing is so intense it's like a call between This kid who was an inmate talking to his mom and the kid's like I need to get out of here I want to go home And she's like we're trying baby, but we can't because you know, we're trying
Starting point is 00:45:22 And the whole time it's real. It's real. The whole time It's like a punched in picture. You're like, what is this and it's slowly backing out And eventually and the whole time it's like a creepy thing playing in the background Like a just a suspenseful Orchestra just like holding on to that D minor or whatever. She's letting those strings ring Yeah, and it's it backs up slowly and then eventually it's just a picture of a girl laying there with like stab wounds in her back Like it's just and I shut it off. I was like, I need to watch this tomorrow. It's that it's that creepy It's fucking creepy, dude. Is it scarier than like the are you afraid of the dark opening?
Starting point is 00:45:58 Yes, it is. It's the scariest opening I've ever seen. Yeah, it is. It's like chilling. Are you afraid that the dark's not real? Oh my god, that's how you scare the fuck out of me, too. What? I should fucking scare me Chill yeah tears and a little light the little fucking little magic So listen that documentary is all true stories. It's all true stories. It's about kids hour-long episodes It's just one one thing. I don't know how long it is. I'll be honest with you, but it's just one thing and it's Kids who are got arrested at an early age and I like serving life sentences. It's like it's murder Right. So it's like just it's just like kind of
Starting point is 00:46:38 Should these kids get a second chance like you're 15 not fully developed you murder somebody and then you get a life sense It's like your life's over Well, these kids like willingly kill these people or is it like like involuntary like mans loaders and stuff like that? No, no, no, it's like murders. Oh like they get like premeditated going to kill the motherfucker. Yeah, like I kill this fucking guy I gotta watch this. Yeah, it's fucked dude, and it's so real. It's so real. It's like Do you get to meet like anybody like the family people? Yeah, and you know what's fucking just fucked up. I can't believe you've already been recording for 50 minutes This is gonna be two hour episode. Oh really?
Starting point is 00:47:16 so, uh The um the parents Are just I get it because it's your kid, but they're just like really oblivious. It's so naive Yeah, no way my my skater could do that to anyone. No because they know what happened, but I don't want to give anything away because people are gonna watch this but Your son was directly involved in a murder and was there at the time of the murder in the house And is on camera saying just like these fucked up things on camera
Starting point is 00:47:46 This because they were like kind of vlogging it in a way, and this was back in like 97 Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. They were basically not the actual murder but like before and after right right right And i'm sure they probably have some footage of that fucking murder too. They can't I can't put that show on tv Yeah, they didn't show anything, but they were just telling the story and this is the real it's not reenactment footage No, it's all real. I definitely gotta watch this it's fucked up It's fucked up. What was it again lost for life. Yeah gotta check that out. I gotta do it. It's fucked watch it in the daytime You watch it by yourself at night. I'll be shook. Yeah, you'll be shook I used to watch all those like youtube like
Starting point is 00:48:23 The top 10 like most unsolved mysteries in america at night that should used to have me shook too. Yeah, I don't fuck with that That should be great Like at any point someone could break into this place and just start hacking away I gotta find new shit on netflix too. I have actually been i've been good with I i'm a big documentary guy and now it's just been like i mean dude Netflix has literally become just a murder show. I know everything's murder speaking of documentaries. Did you watch that any? Kauffman and you watch that. Oh jim and andy. Yeah the jim carry and fucking yo First of all, this is really good. It was good the actual movie man on the moon
Starting point is 00:48:59 It's a phenomenal. I think I think it was one of those movies that it was better the second time I saw it because I got to do like a little more risk because it came out when we were young Right, I didn't end up watching it until I was maybe 20 years old right? So I one when I did once I did a little more research about him And watch it again. It's a really really good fucking movie. Yeah, because at the end of it. I remember thinking like This is genius And like when he's at the funeral they started singing or whatever his movie's over 10 years old So 20 years no spoiler alerts here if you haven't seen it yet, you're just yeah, it's so good when
Starting point is 00:49:36 He's doing that. He's like in this friendly friendly world and his funeral I'm like this is the saddest thing I've ever seen Yeah, and then it hits the the credits and you're like that was that was incredible Yeah, and that jim carry was so good in it, but honestly The documentary was just as entertaining as the movie was for me because it's it's just it's interesting to see that Because like behind the scene you don't really know what goes on in filming a movie And especially when you have actors like jim carry and people who like method actors who like really get into a role And they're always in character like daniel day louis will be homeless quit acting and he's a shoemaker now
Starting point is 00:50:14 You know that yeah, I heard about that. Is that true though? Yeah, it's true. That's awesome. That's yeah, it's it's wild But um, that dude is fucking terrifying imagine living with that dude in this house When he was like the there will be blood guy. Oh my god, dude but Yeah, it's just like I was just cool to see him be in character all the time He refused to be anything other than andy kaufman that entire time. He said that he uh
Starting point is 00:50:44 He was He got the role and he was like standing on the shore He said 15 dolphins came out of the water. Yeah, please and I was like, all right, hold on I will say this This is probably not going to be a popular opinion here Kind of came off like a douche who jim. Yeah, I mean I think I was a firm believer and then anyone who has some sort of audience is douchey in a way Right to someone who's not because it's like you
Starting point is 00:51:12 I don't know you you can't help but be sort of Uh, what's the word I'm looking for a conceded in a way or self absorbed Because you have to kind of always be working on yourself because that's the only thing you care about right But if I dropped you in a room, you're somebody with a big following too I don't know if half the shit that came out of that guy's mouth, but even across your brain I'm also not nearly as big as them. I'm sure that if I was super famous. I would get douchey At in certain ways Like the thing you said when he brought the 15. How'd you counter the dolphins? Yeah, I don't know, but he said that he
Starting point is 00:51:47 Wait, hold on real quick You got the job. Thanks. Let me count these dolphins. He said that at 15 dolphins came to the surface and then he Uh, and he came to him and he's like, I didn't shoot that movie and he shot it Like he claims that and he came into his body And he just like kind of did it and the entire time it was really weird because Do you believe that during the You know, it's crazy like I Part of you don't want to believe it
Starting point is 00:52:12 But a party part of me is like yo, but maybe like I don't know who are we to say Do I think that a soul came and went inside? No, I don't think that I think that he was just so focused and honed in that It just kind of took a life of its own because I think that actors can get lost in roles for sure Yeah, like when you're acting a certain way Eventually you're just going to become what the hell you're acting and it's just then it becomes second nature especially if you're trying to do that But he was like doing shit to like jerry the king luller like really bothering him
Starting point is 00:52:43 Yeah, jerry the king luller got fucking pissed. He's like, I'll fucking you know stop you up And because and jerry the jerry luller was pissed because he's like in person for people who don't know jerry luller and the guy Andy Kaufman had like this riff, but it was for the camera right and it was fake. He was it was wrestling Right. It was scripted. So jerry luller was saying During the documentary you're like dude behind the scenes me and andy were like cool Yeah, but jerry was not like that at all. Yeah, like he was always in Andy Kaufman on tv mode So he was fucking with him behind shaking his trailer throwing shit at him. Yeah like dumping water on him
Starting point is 00:53:17 Yeah, and he was getting so mad and he's like this is bullshit because it's not how me and andy acted Imagine you had to work with somebody like that It was rough and the director like everyone had to call him andy Like oh, I saw that. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, and somebody was like, hey, thanks a lot jim. He's like, I don't know jim is but I'll let him know I'll let him know that you said that. Yeah, I was like this dude's weird Oh, and then you went on that weird spiel about free will that made no sense. Yeah, so he Someone mentioned jim lost jim lost me with that. I was like, yeah, this guy's moving over into the douchey realm here He said that
Starting point is 00:53:50 He's like if I pick up this water and drink it Because i'm thirsty. Is that free will I picked it up because I was thirsty. Does that sound like free will? I was like, well, yeah, yeah I get where he's going. I get where he was trying to go, but i'm like, it's kind of free will jim Because you freely picked up that glass and you drank it. I just feel once you get to that level of like I guess acting You're gonna no one's gonna really understand you unless you do that type of shit
Starting point is 00:54:19 Yeah, Tom Hardy's like that too. Like what? Like never breaks character. Oh, he stays in at the entire time like him and like mad max like him and charlie They're on like hating each other. They wanted to kill each other That's when they said jared leto did that shit on suicide squad Yeah But how can you be the joker all the time? It's not you're not killing people Yeah, no, like suicide squad was so bad It was terrible just so wack
Starting point is 00:54:49 I didn't like the jokers look either like no, they gotta get they gotta get a new joker. I think Yeah, they do they should kill this one or then just have like somebody be a new joker You know what it is. It's like after heath ledger. What are you gonna? What are you what the who the fuck's gonna do it now jack niggleson was great too That was before I know, but i'm just saying like you had two amazing jokers. So it's not like Jack niggleson was an amazing joker and honestly nobody ever thought that they could do better than that Then he ledger fucking knocked it out of the park. So I think there is room for someone to be a really good joker I really I I
Starting point is 00:55:25 This I might be going out on a limb here, but I think heath ledger's joker might be the greatest adaptation ever I think it's ridiculous I would say it's him and the cartoon joker are my favorite jokers The cartoon joker from the batman tv show right because mark hamill does the voice And does he really I didn't know I never do that. No mark hamill is the joker Wow, you got to see watch him do like live shit or like comic cons and stuff You know all the arkham games. Yeah, that that's his voice. He's the joker in those That guy's luke skywalker and the joker. Yeah, I can't believe you didn't know that I didn't mind's blown now, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:56:07 It is so blown. Yeah, so and he was my joker growing up. So uh, it's a time between those guys Fair enough and he's ledger was in character most of the time. They said too. Yeah, he was fucked up from it Obviously, but imagine killing yourself like kind of like based off like role. I don't think that happened But you think he killed himself because he played the joker or like became a bigger drug addict because of the joker It was on drugs I don't I don't know the story. I don't really know it either. It's funny because people say That jack Nicholson warned him about that role like don't get too caught up in it because I mean it is a fucked up role Yeah, like you have to and and the way that he played it was you could tell this dude was like living it
Starting point is 00:56:52 Like you know what I mean? You had to if you're gonna do that so it's like Do I think that maybe it could have enhanced something? Yeah, I think so probably could I guess it could send him maybe Into like a deeper darker place. It's just crazy that acting Could be able to do that to somebody Yeah, because we we talk about it and it's just like We don't realize how serious these people take it right because dude I went on a an audition once and
Starting point is 00:57:21 I was just trying to like it the lines it wasn't a lot of Like the audition wasn't long It was like one page like how hard is that to remember? So like I knew my lines and I'm just kind of I guess confident in what the hell I'm saying. So I'm like Just like sitting there trying to talk to these people and they're just not having it No, I'm like, oh man like whatever like trying to be small talk because it's weird
Starting point is 00:57:45 You're sitting in a room with all these people and no one's talking It's like so I tried to be that person and everyone's like, yeah And like they don't talk and they're just like very honed in very serious like to take it very seriously And it was like a funny role too, right? Obviously if I'm doing I'm in there trying to be fucking You know, yeah, I'm serious. I'll be in dear John or anything You know what I mean? I'm gonna get in there and fake cry or some shit. I couldn't I don't know I want to just go on one audition just to see what it's like just to see like what the process is Like you always see it like on tv and shit
Starting point is 00:58:14 But everyone that I talk to that goes on auditions has like that's like similar story Like they'll be like I went in there and like to be cool like everyone was just like way too business oriented and it was weird Yeah, I mean my audition wasn't It wasn't like you see on entourage where someone you stand you stand in a room And then there's a table with like six people and I'll just stare at you and you just go It wasn't like that for me, I went to this place and
Starting point is 00:58:42 There was like seven people there at the time for my time And they'd call you into a room one by one and in the room there was Someone who read and then the casting director and then the Video camera got it and then you just sit in the chair and you do the scene And sometimes they had notes and be like, oh, you know do it more like this or you know do whatever because that's kind of what I asked at first because I they knew that I have never been on audition before right and My agent like let them know like he's never been on audition like whatever
Starting point is 00:59:13 So when I first got in there, I was like I had a question about I was like do you want this to be like this or that they're like just do whatever you feel So like all right, so I did it the way I felt when I read it And they wanted me to do it differently. It's such a hard old move. So I did it differently and then There was another scene for a different character that I did and they liked that one like right away And I didn't get it Do you remember any of the lines? No, I didn't and that was another thing. I'm not trying to sound like a fucking asshole here. Well, this is gonna sound douchey, but
Starting point is 00:59:47 I I felt like it was really hard for me because I'm currently in the middle of writing a script Right and I'm almost done writing the first episode, which I kind of want you to read after this. Yeah, but I found it very hard to be funny and act funny when I didn't believe the lines were funny Yeah, so I was like, you know what I mean? So it's like I don't think this is funny, but I have to deliver it as if it is right and that's hard Well, it's also very hard when you can't make something yourself Like when you try to make it yourself to try and make it funny when you don't think it's funny Yeah, it's gonna be very hard to like relay that message to people that are trying to watch you act
Starting point is 01:00:26 Right, like there's just I think I could act. Yeah, but I don't think I could be like you dude. You could definitely act You could you could act if you wanted to thank you, man bro bro. You could fucking act I swear to god, dude, dude. Yo, I'm I look at you and you're just like like, yo, I don't say this to many people But you could fucking act dude You could act your ass off. It's like the scene in stepbrothers like I'm not just some guy I'm not just some guy you can sing. I know I've had a sore throat for a month and a half
Starting point is 01:01:03 Dude, that was amazing. You could definitely act But you want to know you should you're writing your own thing acting what you think is funny Right, exactly. So that's why I put more passion into that than you would somebody else wrote it I think that it's easier to do when you're writing You're part of the writing experience and you kind of just because you're you're creating the scenes in your head as you're going through Yeah, I mean, of course So it's like, you know how it's going to look how your face should look and how how it should be said But when you have someone who you don't know, they're completely
Starting point is 01:01:32 Different for sure. You know what I mean? It's that is tough. I don't think I could do that kind of acting Well, when it comes to like I always looked at it is Even like when you do youtube videos or like for my case when I was doing like vine videos and so you are acting in a sense So like you're you're entertaining people but the the people that you're entertaining is directly your audience So you know What's funny to them, right? The harder thing is stepping outside the box and now
Starting point is 01:02:00 How am I going to get a new audience? How am I going to make shit? That's funny for Almost not everyone but you make it a larger scale Right, so I'd rather try to do that with something. That's like my own Material than like somebody else's yeah So I think I would have just a better shot at doing that Yeah, I just feel like You know There's people who
Starting point is 01:02:24 I feel like there's like three tiers of actors You're either like a legit actor who can like take on any role right like classically trains, right? Or you can't act at all. You just don't have it in you to like Be able to you put a camera in front of most people's faces and they like start talking differently And they you know what I mean? They're weird like that And then I feel like there's like a middle where it's like me where it's like I can only do certain things You know what I mean, but you know your limitations though but I also like
Starting point is 01:02:50 I feel like I could be in a serious role But I also would have to be a part of the writing experience You know what I mean because I can't just like expand on that a little bit You really like you think that you could play like a serious role like not crack one joke in a movie I mean not not crack one joke, but I know like I could be in like a rom-com I think That's exactly I mean like you could be serious. There's serious moments Or maybe there's like a upsetting moment that you have to be upset. I believe I could do that Dude if Paul Rudd could make people cry you could make people fucking love Paul. I like Paul Rudd
Starting point is 01:03:22 Love Paul Rudd. Love Paul Rudd But like it's even to fucking Adam Sandler you know Where I work now my boss was one of the first people to put him on stage and like he used to go on stage and not have material Just do it. He would just go up there and riff and and People would ask my boss all the time. They'd be like, yo, why do you put him on stage?
Starting point is 01:03:44 And he's like because he just kind of like has like that in factor So the in factor exists so like you'll be able to trans Not transform your work, but be able to transform yourself a little bit so you could fit that Adam Sandler's made plenty of people cry and that dude's not like an actor like or actor actor actor Yeah, like in click like when it's like when his dad's like dying or whatever Yeah, straight tears. That's fucked up. That dude was Billy Madison Making people cry now and making bank making serious bank, you know I think a smart thing about and I've never done anything. So my opinion doesn't matter, but
Starting point is 01:04:21 I feel like if knowing your limitations as an actor Is just as important as like actually what you're doing like in terms of like the work that you're doing Yeah, because It really just it really depends like as as long as I believe in what I'm saying Yeah, like this makes sense and that's gonna be more if I think if you write it because your whole process up to this point Has been you're creating it. Yeah, and I don't know if that's like You know I'm If it sucks it sucks and that's on me, but like I I just like
Starting point is 01:04:55 I don't know but you're writing something that you think is funny to yourself And then you know what that's how everything starts I'm writing a show you think South Park like those guys that started that Those guys they started with what they thought was funny But now everybody in the world almost thinks it's funny So you never know you just give it a shot and let me get like three co-stars All right Three different characters. Let me get three costars. Yeah
Starting point is 01:05:24 Let me just play a bunch of different characters. Yeah, man. I like love this script so far. I've written it Three times this is the third time. Is it one episode? It's one episode, but I write in the pilot right, but I have Outlines for the other episodes for I mean not all of them yet, but I have like a good Like it's either gonna be eight or ten How many pages is like a typical like that? Look, it's usually like a page is a minute a page is a minute. Got it. That's usually how they do it But I mean, I don't know like this one so far right now. I have 19 and I still have about Three solid scenes left. Nice. So I'll probably hit that 30 mark fire and then well, I'm excited to read it after
Starting point is 01:06:07 Yeah, it's it's pretty dope. Have you told anybody the name yet or you're keeping it? No, I don't have a name for it Yeah, right at first the name will come naturally Yeah, so there's there was a working name that I had but I hate it and I knew it wasn't going to be called that I just did it because I needed to have a title. Can we say it on the air? You don't want to No, I don't want to Um, and I do write with someone but I still haven't said who I write with either So I'm not going to say that keep it on the low keep it on the low
Starting point is 01:06:35 Yeah, but I'm super excited about this man. I just can't wait for it to be done So I could just like start showing Pete. Fuck. Yeah. I'm like, yo, just read this like see what's up How long have you been working on it? Uh A while actually like over a year No, not over a year Hold on. There's a picture I posted on instagram when I first sat down and was like, all right, I'm gonna write a script So let me find this picture on instagram
Starting point is 01:07:02 But I remember I was on here it is Uh, April 26th, April 26th, right? So I the caption was that uh I'm currently writing a script because I had an idea for a series for netflix Or one of those platforms which I've by the way, I've already decided that Netflix is gonna make this where I'm gonna die It's all right. Uh, it's a it's a long shot But if it gets picked up by somebody a year from now, this will be a cool picture to look back on. Fuck. Yeah
Starting point is 01:07:30 But so so here's how it went. I I wrote an episode, right and it was 20 some pages And I showed a bunch of people. It's like, hey read this check it out. Like I wrote a script like whatever for an episode and Then I asked a lot of people to give me notes. No, everyone's just kind of like, oh dude It's funny, but I don't really know like what's going on yet. I don't know what's happening So it's like, oh, but it's funny like whatever. I was like, all right, cool. Whatever and I you know It was just my first shot at it. I just kind of whatever and then
Starting point is 01:08:02 I asked one of my friends Yo, can you Seriously give me notes on this And he had like three pages of notes And I agreed with all of them. Nice. So I had to scrap the entire thing So that idea that I originally had The idea is sort of still there, but we just started over right and we started from the beginning we got 20 pages in
Starting point is 01:08:24 and went This isn't it either and we scrapped it scrap that and now we're We're here, but now we're very confident and like, okay This is the thing we're moving forward and like when we're done with writing the pilot We're just gonna go over it again and kind of get rid of some things or whatever and just do whatever But we're we're not we're just like we're set on this Idea right now. Good. Good. So we're at least you knew when to scrap it if you wanted to scrap it That's hard to do. It's hard. It sucks to do. It's gotta be discouraging. I do. I hate it so much
Starting point is 01:08:52 I was so upset. He's like, it's all right. He's like, listen, I have a I want to tell you something and he told me all this stuff and I was just like, oh my god. Yeah, fuck Yeah, and then we're just like, all right. Yeah, I was like, so we're almost there though. Yeah I'm in the business. Uh like not in the business. I'm I'm I will do whatever I Whatever it takes to make this I want this to be the show that I want to be a show people like that's the funniest fucking show I've ever seen right, you know what I mean? So I'll do whatever it takes. I'll write it 15 times. Yeah, but You know
Starting point is 01:09:23 We'll we'll see how it goes. It's killing it. Joe santa gata out here right in fucking screening place and shit anything This guy can't do I got a boner right now Right now on the table. I don't know. Are you gonna start it? I would like to yeah Well, yeah, I'm gonna do good. Yeah, I would like to I'm gonna ask people upstairs Yeah, I don't know at the top No, yeah, I'm gonna I'm gonna be in it um, it's awesome So, you know, it's funny too
Starting point is 01:09:52 Whenever something funny happens or someone that I know says something or a funny situation happens Who are here about a funny situation? I write it down in my phone like immediately. Yeah, and I'm working like all of them in Eventually, there's not a lot in this first episode. There's a few There's like two or three maybe but I have a ton. So it's like throughout this whole thing There's gonna be things that happen that people might think This is ridiculous. How did it come up this? It's like because this happened. You know what I mean? That's I feel like that stuff's the best material too when it's based on like real shit. Yeah, you know It also just helps the writing process. Yeah, I'm fucking I'm super good brother. That's very that's very fun
Starting point is 01:10:30 I'm excited to read it excited But yeah, that's what I'm that's uh, that's what I'm doing netflix joe netflix joe netflix joe The netflix green that'd be crazy, man. Yeah, they're green light a lot of shit You've been watching the new south park episode. That's all they've been talking about Is that how fucking netflix green lights? I really like this hysterical I don't know how they make money They don't they like they I don't understand Well, it's just like how I I'm assuming I mean, I don't know the specifics of it
Starting point is 01:11:00 But like a company like twitter. They're not they don't have revenue Right, but they sell ads. Don't they get revenue now? Yeah, but that's Minimal yeah minimal compared to They're big because they have such a mass audience that people will Buy into it because it's like this won't fail. Right. You know what I mean? People will keep coming back here It's like a weird thing that people some people don't understand if they're not like into that But some of these companies they don't generate revenue
Starting point is 01:11:26 You know what I mean? So it's just like people are investing money into a company that doesn't generate revenue But that's why that goes up and down. That's why you have to Like you said though, they have a service that's not really going to go away because people like it that much So it will be there. That's why vine died Because they couldn't make any money And then twitter was like we'll just we just want the technology. Yeah, so they bought they sold the tech Yeah But apparently like the vine dudes are coming up with something else or something
Starting point is 01:11:53 Yeah, they're gonna have like some beta and they might bounce it to To us some people that were like big or whatever. Nice. I was a rumor, but it'd be cool to like test out some beta Try to get famous again. Vine was Vine was funny, man. Vine was the shit. Vine was great. You know, it's funny People realize how much they miss it now. Yeah, my twitter is just all like, yeah, I miss vine so much. I'm like, you fucking miss vine I fucking miss. I miss vine dude. I miss my fucking chat I uh I miss uh
Starting point is 01:12:27 You know what it is too like random people have the best vines, but like vineers. I don't miss that No, I don't miss vineers, but I do miss that platform Just people having the most absurd random six second videos And she's like, you don't know how this person is they have one video that went crazy and it's amazing Those were all the funniest ones to be honest. Yeah, like I know I've made some really funny ones Like I get it, but they're like not like produced but like I'm working on like putting it out Like I want it to be funny That was the worst part that ever happened when I got to a point where like
Starting point is 01:12:58 You like had to be you care about it. Yeah Like you cared about it and like you had to be funny because that took all the fucking fun out of it Yeah, because like once you got like once I hit around like three or four hundred thousand people would start being like Uh, this sucks. This isn't like as good as your other shit. And I just feel like I suck my fucking dick Yeah, it's like I'm fucking around. Yeah, dude. I'm I'm singing about titties into a phone like chill out like it's not You know, I'm not fucking painting the Mona Lisa over here so But like you said
Starting point is 01:13:27 That's why I always loved the ones that were like one offs just one off bangers Yeah, people would always have like the best ones. Yeah, and also created like this like subculture where I was like Everyone shared this kind of inside joke that you only get if you knew from but like Like, uh, like they always had those ones like when they would put music to like videos that didn't fit Like when those goth kids are dancing Like they're doing like that whole fucking dance and they put like future behind it Like they're obviously not dancing the future. All those one-off ones are great Yeah, but like vinyrs like fucking like all those people that were just making
Starting point is 01:14:01 Yeah, do you know those vinyrs are still making youtube videos are the same thing as vines? Like they're all just like Stereotyping. Yeah Ethnic ethnicities. Yep, and just running with that. Yep. It's like How much do you think like logan paul's worth right now? Oh, dude, forget about it. He's a millionaire. He's a millionaire, right? Oh, what?
