Starting point is 00:01:54 Just as weird of a premise as it would have sounded back then. And here's the truth. It did not age well. It did not age well. It is sexist, racist, homophobic, and just ridiculous. It's just ridiculous. I mean, honestly, first of all, nobody in that show looks like they should be in high school. No one. They're all way too old to be in high school. Additionally, they are busting people for the most ridiculous of things, and the cop work is not really solid cop work. I'm being honest with you.

Starting point is 00:05:05 It is sexist, racist, homophobic and just ridiculous. It's just ridiculous. I mean, honestly, first of all, nobody in that show looks like they should be in high school. No one, they're all way too old to be in high school. Additionally, they are busting people for the most ridiculous of things. And the cop work is not really solid cop work.

Starting point is 00:05:24 I'm being honest with you. So, I mean, here's the premise. You can imagine the pitch meeting, right? Here's what we got. We got an idea for a television show. It's six guys and girls that are in their 30s, but they pretend like they're teenagers, and they go to actual school,

Starting point is 00:05:39 and they bus kids doing drugs and gambling. And sex. We're gonna bust them with sex. It's like one long PSA commercial. That's really bad. I mean, it's just like awful. So when you go to, I watched the first episode of 21 Jump Street, it was all the other thing.

Starting point is 00:05:54 It's two part, right? It's two part, because of course the story went. They came out with two parts. I think it's gonna have been 20 minutes and gotten everything in, but Johnny Depp's father died and now he's few wants to avenge his death And blah blah blah yada yada who gives a shit right and so what is is 21 jump street Is the name of the street upon which the old churches where they have their secret hideout right like their hero layer like the Batman cave for the

Starting point is 00:06:18 Overgrown teenagers For the extra hairy teenagers that are busting everybody and for the extra hairy teenagers that are busting everybody. And they have a captain. And that captain, the whole shtick is, he's an old hippie. He's like an old dead head. It's so stupid. So they're sitting around their meeting, right? Johnny Depp at first plays a conservative.

Starting point is 00:06:39 He's a Republican teenager. You know, because teenagers like made up a Republican. I have nice. Obviously not as polarized of a time as it was then, right? So they're sitting around for their morning pitch meeting. Hey, I'm gonna, you know, this, I'm gonna bust this kid. Well, Al's Keaton was a Republican, so maybe it was a... And he was an extraordinarily popular character, right?

Starting point is 00:06:57 But it was a different time. That was a different time, different place. So they're sitting around and they're having their pitch meeting and the captain who's like, Hey, what's up dudes? You know, Johnny Depp is a straight-laced Republican and he's like, at 705 in the morning, I witnessed, you know, Suspect blah blah blah blah, he's like, hey, man, chill out brother. Meditate. That's what he says.

Starting point is 00:07:17 He said meditator. And everyone around the table is like, huh? Like, all like, as if meditation back then was so antithetical to common sense that the actual joke, the punch line was meditation. That was a punch line, right? Did you hear Captain say meditate? As you make oil medicine, as you brew. They start fights and it's just the worst show. Anyway, I'll be watching it later on. Yeah, because I can't stop looking at a train wreck.

Starting point is 00:09:54 Come on down, get some free shwags, say hello, and join us for a recording of the show. Hey everybody, I wanna thank DBS Alliance for coming on board as a new sponsor for the commercial break. If you've listened to the commercial break for any period of time, then you know I am unabashed about telling stories regarding my life. One of the things I've mentioned in the past is that my mother has struggled with mental

Starting point is 00:10:16 illness her entire adult life. It led to some tough times in my household when I was a teenager, and I certainly wish it had been less stigmatized than it is now. It's 2021 and it's nothing to be ashamed of, because 1 in 5 American adults may have mental illness, that's about 21 million of us. You shouldn't be ashamed to reach out and ask for help. Suicide is the 10th leading cause of death in the United States in all age groups and it can be prevented.

Starting point is 00:10:45 Speaking up and asking for help does prevent suicides. And DBS is providing free support groups, wellness tools and inspirational stories to guide you on your path to holistic mental health wellness. This is what you can do. You can go to dbsaliance.org slash suicide-prevention. To learn more about how you can start conversations about mental health and suicide awareness in your community, this is an important conversation and it always has been and when speaking up and reaching out for help saves lives it's important to do so.

Starting point is 00:11:25 dbsaliance.org slash suicide-prevention. We want to thank dbsaliance for coming on board as a sponsor and giving these free tools as an important conversation starter. So I was reading last night in, you know, as I get older, I take more read. Read. It's I could older read less. How many books do you think you've finished as an adult? Oh, you're a good reader. I love it. You read all the time.

Starting point is 00:11:55 Yeah, I finished two in like the past week. That's amazing. That's an indication that you don't have children. I also don't have children. Yes, exactly. I start so many books that I never finish and I look at them and I just feel so unaccompanied. It really beats up my self-esteem. I feel so guilty. Brian, how did you get this old and you have yet to finish any of these books that sit in front of you? Some of them are really good.

Starting point is 00:12:18 Anyway, whatever. So last night I picked up my reading of choice is usually the online news rags, right? Or some kind of information or something about black holes that I don't understand anything about. So last night I was reading a news story that the FTC has now is now getting involved with the following. Where's my, where do my megaphone go? Oh, here it is right behind me. Okay, ready? This is what you get. I want you to imagine yourself pulling up to McDonald's. Welcome to McDonald's, how can I read your data? Yes, I'd like to get to make flurries

Starting point is 00:12:50 and an ice cream cone, please. So that doesn't work today, but you're going to get loaded now, I'm going to pour up. And I'm sorry, what did you say? I'm sorry, we don't have ice cream today. We didn't have ice cream yesterday. You said it was going to be available today. I'm sorry, ice cream machine is broken

Starting point is 00:13:02 or cleaning it currently, it's not available, please pull around. And I'm like, what? Every time you go into a McDonald's,. I'm sorry, ice cream machine is broken or cleaning it currently, it's not available, please follow around. And I'm like, what? Every time you go into a McDonald's, they don't have their ice cream machine. They never have their ice cream machine available. Now, I don't need ice cream from McDonald's a lot, but I have noticed that this is a problem

Starting point is 00:13:16 that is all over the internet. People complain about it all the time. Facebook, Instagram, people complain. It's like a running joke that if you pull up to a drive through at McDonald's for ice cream or a McFlurry, you won't get it, right? You can hear my daughter in the background yelling and screaming over the fact that there's no McDonald's. That's right, she wants it.

Starting point is 00:13:32 So, so, Mia, she's like, so this has happened so frequently that now the FTC is getting involved. The Federal Trade Commission is doing an investigation on the McDonald's ice cream machines. They're saying themselves, your ice cream machines can't be this fucking broken all this fucking time. I mean, it's just like impossible, right?

Starting point is 00:13:57 So this little joke or this little thing that's been happening is all the sudden gotten the, I mean, clearly there are not more important things going on in our society the DFTC, you know, anyway, I'm just I won't why don't you investigate like random human beings making altcoin and pumping and dumping them right why don't you do that you're investigating fucking McDonald's and ice cream machines anyway it's a problem they're investigating it and so got me thinking I'm like but you know is McDonald's ice cream really that bet like that much better than anybody else's ice cream out there? You know, there is ice cream that's in my opinion. I don't like a huge ice cream connoisseur, but there is ice cream that is better than McDonald's.

Starting point is 00:14:37 And a muck fucking flurry is just like a sugar shake. Like, you know, do you really need that? Probably not. I started to wonder, what are some other things in life that other people say are so wonderful, but we feel like it's overrated, or it's underrated, or maybe we feel like, yeah, the hype is deserving of it, right? One way or the other, either the haters out there, or the hype there is right.

Starting point is 00:14:59 So I decided, let's put together, not a game per se, but a little conversation starter, called over under average. Okay, I like it. What is overrated? So I decided let's put together not a game per se, but a little conversation starter called over under average. Okay, I like it. What is overrated? What is underrated? And what is spot on?

Starting point is 00:15:12 What is average? It's equal. Yeah, you're right, about that. Okay, here's how it goes. I came up with five categories. I hope I can count right. Is it five categories? Let's count with our fingers.

Starting point is 00:15:22 Ready? Carry the one plus two. Sex, relationships, entertainment, food, and general category. Life category. Okay, that's five, I'm good. I'm looking at this. Friday afternoon and my mind.

Starting point is 00:15:35 Doing well. Hitting on all silliness, crispy. Fire in a way. Look at that, we don't have any complicated phone calls to make, I feel like we're doing good on this particular fire side, it's really working. Okay, you ready? Yes.

Starting point is 00:15:46 You want to go random style on the categories, or do you want me to go one category at a time? Yeah, no, let's go random style. That's gonna require that I keep track of shit. Well, you have a pen in your hand. Now we're throwing in the inspectors, when you fly planes. You have a pen in your hands, and just make a check.

Starting point is 00:16:03 I always have a pen in my hand, they'll half the time it doesn't work. It's just because I'd rather have a cigarette but since I stopped smoking, tenders go. Okay, it's, when you reply pilot, they warn you about something called task loading. Do you know what a task load is? No.

Starting point is 00:16:18 You can pretty much guess. Is that when you're a pilot, you don't want to be doing too many tasks at one time because if an emergency comes, then you get task loaded and then all of a sudden your brain doesn't start to work the same way. You're not paying attention. The emergency, now you're paying attention to tasks, right?

Starting point is 00:16:32 So now you're task loading me and now I'm having problems. Uh-oh, okay. I'm sorry, pilot. I'm sorry, pilot. Pilot Pete, as my wife would say. Okay, you ready? Here we go. All right, I'm gonna go one category to time which category would you like first?

Starting point is 00:16:48 Oh, my crickets are playing in the background. I don't know. Oh, sorry. I thought you meant to do that. Okay, sex relationships, entertainment, life, food. All right, let's go. Let's go, food. Okay, we're gonna go food.

Starting point is 00:17:01 We're just talking about McDonald's. Overrated, underrated, or spot on. You ready? Hot sauce. Oh, I mean, spot on. Yeah, a lot of hot sauce. I mean, I love hot sauce too. What's your favorite hot sauce?

Starting point is 00:17:14 Probably sriracha, generally. Sriracha. I like a few special tea ones. I'll pick up one whenever I go to Memphis or different cities. So I told some of the other day that I've been to a hot sauce shop and they said there's no such thing as a hot sauce shop.

Starting point is 00:17:27 Was that you? That's what that was. There's hot sauce shops all over the place. Okay, I think you're making that. You're making that. What's wise, Sriracha? I just love the flavor of it. Do you really?

Starting point is 00:17:36 I love the flavor and then the heat. I like a good Texas hot sauce or Tabasco. Something that can completely kill the flavor of tasteless food, food that you don't like. I liked it in hand. You know what I do? You know what I do around here, HODLY? I just put hot sauce on everything.

Starting point is 00:17:54 That way of a plate of her slides in front of my face that I don't like, I'm just like, it just tastes like Texas pizza. Texas pizza is good. Texas pizza. Great stuff. It's like ketchup, right? You know people put ketchup on everything? And they go, oh, Texas, Texas, Texas, Texas, Texas, great stuff. It's like ketchup, right? You know, people put ketchup on everything?

Starting point is 00:18:07 And they go, oh, I'll take, are you ketchup with my steak, but it doesn't, it just, it doesn't taste like anything to me. It just enhances the flavor of the steak. No, it doesn't. Tastes like fucking ketchup, don't lie. Come on.

Starting point is 00:18:18 That might be left ever from like bad cooks, you know. Oh yeah, bad shit. Maybe or something. Yeah, you know, because I'm not the one who cooks, because I can't even make ramen noodles. I don't ever wanna offend anybody's cooking around here. So I'm like, well, if I just keep drowning it, oh, she's a wonderful cook.

Starting point is 00:18:32 Yes, I thought it was empanada. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. All right, so now let me pick one. Why don't we go with entertainment? Okay. And 50 shades of gray

Starting point is 00:18:47 Mmm. I Think it's overrated. So fucking overrated. It's some of the worst movie making in history I just got to say this and how do I know this because three years in a row Astrid dragged me to 50 shades of gray on fucking Valentine's Day where I was the only human being that had a penis inside the entirety of the theater. Well, not the only one, but I was the only one. And she was trying to say something. Oh my God, maybe she was trying to say something,

Starting point is 00:19:13 but I couldn't hear what she was saying because I was laughing too hard, that in one moment there was a helicopter crash that clearly no human could survive. And the next moment, Christian Gray is walking through the door from said helicopter with a band-aid on his nose and I'm like, what happened? What happened? They don't show the carnage, the wreckage, the hospital stay. No, he just walks through the door with his bad, bad acting. And says, I realized in the color of the helicopter crash, how much I do love you. Would you like to kiss now?

Starting point is 00:19:49 It's so bad. No amount of nudity can make that movie good. I'm just saying, that's all I got is, even though they did pick two incredibly beautiful people to be in that movie. Absolutely. I do have to say that. I'll give them that.

Starting point is 00:20:02 I'll give them that, beautiful people. Okay, your turn. Sex relationships, entertainment food. Well, we have sex relationships and entertainment. Entertainment. You're gonna stay away from food. Well, we just did entertainment. So sex relationships are a general.

Starting point is 00:20:14 Relationships. Blind dates. Blind dates. So overrated, underrated, or average. Have you been on a blind date? Yeah, and I didn't like it. I've been on some dates where I wish I was blind. Right.

Starting point is 00:20:30 That's very sure. So I don't know, I mean, who's rating it? What are we going against here? Well, you know, saying it's great. I know, I don't think anybody's saying the blind dates are great. I don't think anybody says blind dates are great. I think most people say that, like, I hate blind dates. I hate blind dates too. Yeah. So when I say overrated,

Starting point is 00:20:49 I don't mean in the always in the positive sense, it can't be in the negative sense too, right? But what they're saying is like, is it over, is it overhiked negatively or is it, you know, is it just not that bad? Yeah, I mean, maybe average. Yeah, I think it's, yeah. Some people like it. I've only been on three blind dates in my entire life. They all came from the wonderful world of Tinder. And one I had to fish out of a tree at the fire department and I had to come get out of a tree.

Starting point is 00:21:18 That's right. Excuse me, security guard, can you call a fire department? It's a cat in the tree. No, her name is Cat. She's in the tree. I need you to take her down out of the tree. True story. I feel like at the mall too, or something.

Starting point is 00:21:33 It fits Plaza. No, no, no. This was right near your house, at a bar near your house. And she climbed up one of the, like the young oak trees. She climbed up it. A young oak. A young oak. Ah, those young oak.

Starting point is 00:21:45 They're just there. They're just there again themselves. Is this a bullet climb? Or apparently I was resistive. I was just getting away from it. She scrambled right to the tree. And then no shit had to call the fire department to get her out of the tree.

Starting point is 00:21:59 And then I'd put her in a cab home with the address. Right? It's like here, you're gonna go wherever she's going. That was wild. And then the two other ones were just disasters too. So I think it's right on. I actually think this is a fine date. It's pretty bad.

Starting point is 00:22:11 Though I do have one friend that loved blind dates, but he commitment was not even a word he could spell. I mean, it was just like, yeah. I mean, he's like going round Robin. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Guess who? Okay, my turn, I'm gonna go for it. I'm gonna go into the sex category. Okay, go ahead. Okay, body hair. Body hair

Starting point is 00:22:29 Yeah, overrated underrated you go for it. Are you answering first? Just throwing it out there for conversation. I'm picking it in the nice Get the flow down what did you say what was was the sex? Body hair. Body hair. Body hair. I like body hair. I like body hair. I'm going to say that body hair is underrated. Good chest.

Starting point is 00:22:52 You like a good chest? You love this one. Patrick said, my brother was, we're having a birthday dinner the other night. And Patrick said something about his chest hair, right? And he goes, I'm a big, I'm a big burly bear, right? Referring to the gay nomenclature, a hair, right? And he goes, I'm a big, I'm a big burly bear, right? Referring to the gay nomenclature, a bear, right? And I, then we started talking about gray hairs

Starting point is 00:23:10 because my two and brother and I are getting old and so Kevin says, you have any gray hairs. And I said, I might have one or two in my beard, but it's covered up. He said, you don't have any like gray chest hair and Patrick responded that, oh, all my chest hair is turning gray. And I said, you're now a polar bear, Pat.

Starting point is 00:23:24 Look at that. Because is that a thing I said, you're now a polar bear, Pat. Look at that. Because is that a thing? Should be, it's a polar bear. I say body hair is underrated. I think we need more body hair in our, in our intimates, in our, in our babies. Yeah, nobody needs to be bald everywhere. No, I think it's just creepy if I'm just being honest.

Starting point is 00:23:39 I get a little creeped out by it. I know it's some people's preference. And I'm not saying that everyone who has a preference is creepy. I'm just saying for everyone who has a preference is creepy. I'm just saying for me, it feels a little creepy. Right, so we're gonna leave it at that. We are on fireside.

Starting point is 00:24:19 I think it's pretty on point. You think so? I love Austin. I'm gonna say that I think Austin is a little bit overrated. I don't think it's like... It's a little hype. I don't think it's a totally hype, but I think anytime that everyone says that, you know, I don't know, I think anytime everybody gets on the bandwagon. Yeah, it's just like... But it is so cool to me, but that's the way. It's a very cool city. Don't

Starting point is 00:24:38 get me wrong, but I think there are other cities that I would rather visit before Austin, Texas. I love Austin. I put it in my top five. Yeah, I've been to Austin. Yes, I have. Okay, well then yeah, you probably want to go somewhere. 1982, I was a trucker on the road. I stopped there one time for gasoline. Nice.

Starting point is 00:25:18 I think it's overrated because of Chip and Joanna. That's my personal opinion. Oh, Chip and Joanna. Oh, Chip and Joanna. They're overrated. They're overrated. They should have put them down. They've got like a whole empire going now. Well, I mean, I don't think that means overrated. I just think that means successful. Well, he listened. He said,

Starting point is 00:25:31 my thing when I do, I want to sit around and watch chip and Joe Anna all day. No, I don't. It's kind of too much. Chips a little over the top for me. Like he was at first. It was funny. He was key. It was funny and their relationship was back and forth. You know, it was like, they were doing a, I don't know. It's some kind of, you know, straight man and joky routine. But now it's clear that half those jokes are written. Yes, of course. Take three, you know, and he takes it too far and then there's a stunt every time and then,

Starting point is 00:25:57 Oh, I didn't know the wall was gonna come trashin' down. It's demo day. It's demo day. Ah! Ah! Ah! Demo day. Demo Day. Ah! Ah! Ah! Demo Day.

He was a nice guy. Yeah, he was a very nice guy. Ernest says he's something up. And he say bam to you. He does. Listen.

Starting point is 00:27:13 All everybody who's got a catchphrase, like the guy from Good Day and Kinectrae. I like catchphrase. I know, man. You know, or what you're talking about with this, right, all those guys who have a catchphrase, every single one of them. Regrets the day that they ever said have a catchphrase, every single one of them, regrets the day that they ever

Starting point is 00:27:26 said that fucking catchphrase. Because now, everywhere they go, everything that they do revolves around that damn catchphrase. And they just want to be treated like a human being and they're like, hey, can you say Dino Mike? I saw that guy on a commercial for an accident injury attorney. Yes, I got it too. Did you see this?

Starting point is 00:27:44 Yes, I did. I'll Did you see this? I did. I'll have to get this and I'm gonna play it. It was the world. This guy looks like he was being held hostage by some. He looked like he was just like the... He did, I was forced. And he was like, if I get into an accident, I'm not old-fashioned.

Starting point is 00:27:57 I was reverse mortgage, that's what it was. Well, you can fall back on it. If I need some extra cash, I'm not old-fashioned. I guess you can always fall back on it. I guess you can and maybe... on it. I guess you can. And maybe best to you on that. Best to you on that. Oh shit.

Starting point is 00:28:10 No more best to you is we're off of it immediately. We're about to put that shit on t-shirts. Okay, your turn. Sex relationships, entertain, oh no, it's my turn. Sex relationships, entertainment, food, or general, also known as life. Let me go with entertainment. Okay.

Starting point is 00:28:27 And I'll say the Bachelor series. Oh, I mean, I know everybody loves this show, but I'm gonna have to say over rate. Right, over rate. To me, it's comic relief. I mean, I think it's quite funny, but every single season is the exact same. For real. It's so scripted. It's so re-heard. Every single season is the exact same

Starting point is 00:28:46 for those days. It's so scripted, it's so re-heard. It's also so addictive that if you watch, this is the key, is not to watch the first episode because then you wanna know what happens. I always die, do, and then you're in it. But we just all watch and you don't miss it either. It's like a hurricane around here. The comms, we got everyone gets ready.

Starting point is 00:29:06 Hashtag loves it. We batten down the hatches that someone turns on the fucking bachelor. And then where everyone's watching it. I'll make it fun of it. Astrid's telling me to shut up. Astrid falls in love with three to four bachelor of bachelor ads every single time.

Starting point is 00:29:22 I'm laughing hysterically at the fact that they're having the same conversation over and over again. Night one. I'm so glad I had this opportunity to get you alone because I don't know if you heard but one when I was two years old, I was in a tragic orphan fire and at four years old I actually fell out of a plane and lost all of, I lost my legs and then they surgically reattached them. So I've had a lot of adversity. And I needed you to know that from my heart

Starting point is 00:29:51 and I'm here for all the right reasons. And I'm not the guy who's coming on here to be a famous television star. I'm after your heart. That's right. And I just want you to know that. I'm so glad we had this opportunity to spend 15 minutes together.

Starting point is 00:30:05 Would you mind if we made out for a few minutes until the next guy comes knocking at the door? Yes. My favorite is when they interrupt other like a few episodes in and then they interrupt. Other people just excuse me, I'm not pulling my way from, and I cannot pull her in.

Starting point is 00:30:18 I'll be the guy. I just wanted you to know that all the drama that's going on in the house, I don't agree with that. I haven't been a part of it. It wasn't me. And I know you inevitably choose the guys who all the drama that's going on in the house, I don't agree with that. I haven't been a part of it. It wasn't me. And I know you inevitably choose the guys who started the drama, but me as the guy who's the first time I've been on camera, I just wanted you to know how sincere I am and the

Starting point is 00:30:36 fact that I lost both my uncles at a very young age. It's just been really hard. It's been really hard for me. Now you come in and interrupt me. It's been really hard on me. Excuse me, can I take her away from you? Oh, man. Cut to the single shot, right? This is the first time I've had an opportunity

Starting point is 00:30:52 to talk to. And then there's drama about, yeah. The first time I've had a talk to Amy. And Jason comes in one more time and steals our time. He's got to remember, there's other people here that are after her heart. Oh, it, so true. And then it comes the shit head. You know, Julie, there's one more rose left. Gentlemen, if you don't get a rose, I'm sorry. Say you're good buys. You will not be on the cover

Starting point is 00:31:21 of people magazine. Right. Chris Harrison, say you're good buys. Yeah. You will not be on the cover of People Magazine. Right. Right. Chris Harrison say you're goodbyes. Yeah. You will not be on the cover. Oh, he must have got no payout that boy. Oh, yeah. He just got, and you know what's gonna happen? He's gonna come unglued. He's gonna start golfing and drinking with O.J. Simpson.

Starting point is 00:31:39 And the two of them are gonna be running around doing their own podcast about racism and murdering people. Poor guy just lost it all. He lost it all. He should have kept his mouth shut. I mean, I guess, you know, maybe that's the way people found out how he feels. But, you know, when you're the host of a show like that,

Starting point is 00:31:56 you just, the only thing, you only have one rule. This is one thing for you to do. Just do the show. That's it. What do you, what do you happen about? No one wants to hear your opinion. Yeah, that's it. You haven't given your opinion on any other episode of the Bachelor of Bachelor at why did you start then?

Starting point is 00:32:10 It's a comfortable podcast. Got it. Got it. Okay, ready? Food, life, relationships, entertainment. Okay. Is it my turn to choose? It's your turn to choose. Let's go back to food. Okay.

Starting point is 00:32:24 Bobby Flay. Bobby Flay. Bobby Flay. Ah! I think it's a little overrated. I think way overrated. Yeah. I can't stand that. Is it just me or does everybody...

Starting point is 00:32:36 Yes, actually, I have some good recipes, but yeah, I think he's just very arrogant. Recipes. Recipes. Recipes. Can't you just find recipes? Yes, basically. Yeah, it's got to like music. Eventually all the notes are played together in some way, shape or form. Who cares about recipes? Bobby Flay makes me angry. You want to know why? Why? He's always got to win that damn show. Bobby Flay meets the world or whatever it is. He's always got to win it.

Starting point is 00:33:00 It's always got to be on his terms. He's got to, he gets upset. I don't know, it's just like this attitude. Yeah. Mad at Bobby Flay. Now Guy Fieri, there's a guy you can trust. I love him. Love him. I think he gets too much shit actually. He does.

Starting point is 00:33:17 The poor guy. He's a great guy though, he's really, he gives a lot back to the community. Yeah, I've heard that. I've heard that, I don't know him personally. But what I do know is when I went down to Florida. Diner's driving. Diner's driving and jazz.

Starting point is 00:33:30 Today I'm taking you to a place where they throw a slap on, slap, and I'm going to tell you the recipe before the chef has an opportunity to. That's the only thing that I hate, is it like, he's like the chef's making something, and he's like, you take three sticks of butter. That's what I was gonna say. And then you make four cloves of mint. Yeah, four cloves of mint and then you stir it around.

Starting point is 00:33:52 It's like Bobby, I mean, Guy, let him say it. Poor guy, this is his moment in the sun. But when Guy Fieri rolls into town and comes to your restaurant, you can be sure as shit, you're gonna have some jingle jangle coming your way. Guy Fiery's gonna touch you with his magic Magic Follow him when he goes to the places he goes when that convertible comes rolling in with that Well that could cherry red convertible comes rolling into town.

Starting point is 00:35:00 I like you, but you got to let him talk. Anyway, so I went to Naples, Florida and there's Guy Fieri's great American, you know, Red Head restaurant or whatever. Whatever it is. Whatever it is. He has his own restaurant chain. He opened one in Times Square. It closed like three months later.

Starting point is 00:35:13 Yeah, that's the top. He opened one in Naples, Florida. It's like Naples, Florida does not seem like the type of place. If you've been in Naples, Florida, it's like $2 million to buy us. Right. I can't afford a body there, right? It doesn't seem like there's a dining time. But there was. And so

Starting point is 00:35:29 anyway, we were it went to this little strip shopping very nice strip shopping center where this was. At least that's what the sign said. So when we get there, it's got like guys head on the door, you know, and stuck in the mouth. It says, sorry, folks were closed. I think that made it three most. That's like the wallbergs that have those burger places. Oh God, those burgers are awful. I don't know, why? I don't know, maybe they like bur, who knows.

Starting point is 00:35:53 But they were, I mean everybody likes a burger, but come on. Yeah, I don't like them deal with the wallbergs. You couldn't deal with that burger shit anyway. Well, I mean, there's the super successful one and then the other ones that are. Shake, shake.

Starting point is 00:37:02 That's my thing, right? It is my thing. But I do know some other people in my life. We do. Yes. We know. Actually, I think we know more than a few people who choose not to have that that word doesn't play into their role. Pauli Amarras. I think Pauli Amarras sometimes is a French word for my marriage isn't working. That's just my opinion.

Starting point is 00:37:19 It's too expensive to get divorced. Yeah. Can't afford the divorce. Let's try this. Sleeping with your cousin, sorry. Yeah. It needs to be thrown on that, but I think it's spot on. I like it. I like monogamy.

Starting point is 00:37:59 I don't think you needed that all. What? What? No, I'm just kidding. Is that why you're thinking underrated? No, no, no, I'm kidding. Obviously everyone everyone says if you need for play, right? For play is the thing you need for play for plays fun. I like the for play. And I'm into it. And for me, for play is a good episode of 90 day fiance. I like to watch 90 day fiance. Why don't you watch 50s shades of gray one more

Starting point is 00:38:33 time? Listen, you know how many nights I've walked out of this studio and the USA version, like the USA network version of 50 shades and grades playing in the bedroom. And Astrid's got the cover. Like up to her eyeballs. And I'm like, didn't we watch this one? Don't you have to record some more? Yeah. Oh, sure. Yeah, I'll be in there.

Starting point is 00:38:57 That's Astrid's for play. Astrid's for play. It's her watching 50 Shades of Grey. Yes. Hey, it's her watching 50 shades of gray. Yes, yes. Relationships, entertainment, food, or life, all go life. Instagram. I'm answering again. I always answer first.

Starting point is 00:39:15 Okay, I'll answer. Okay. You know what I mean? I think Instagram is a little bit overrated. Yeah, that's my personal opinion. Now I'm no Instagram star. And if I had 16 million people liking every post that I made, then maybe I'd feel a little bit overrated. Yeah, that's my personal opinion. Now, I'm no Instagram star, and if I had 16 million people liking every post that I made, then maybe I'd feel a little bit different about it.

Starting point is 00:39:30 Maybe I feel inadequate on Instagram, maybe that's why I feel like it's a little bit overrated. But here's what I sense on it. It's good for businesses, actually. Yeah, I don't know about all that. I don't know about all that. You know, making a million dollars on Instagram and all that shit.

Starting point is 00:39:44 I don't know, because that's not the... No, but it that you know making million dollars in Instagram and all that shit I don't know because I know that's a way to promote yourself It is a way to promote yourself And Unfortunately, it has worked out great for the commercial I know I am not somebody that needs to photograph their One entire life Yeah, no, I like to keep it a little private I know a number of people who are very successful

Starting point is 00:40:02 Very popular on Instagram and I'm sure the that they feel the exact opposite that I do. Yeah, they love it. But for me, I think the influencer culture just feels a little much to me. And I'm not talking about people who are trying to, you know, promote their business. I'm talking about people who are, you know, taking pictures in their backyard and saying that they're,

Starting point is 00:40:21 you know, exotic location. That is called fake famous. Yeah, fake famous. Fake famous. We've talked about this on fireside before actually. Fake famous. I would be on fireside. Yeah, on fireside.

Starting point is 00:40:31 And on fake famous, just to reiterate, fake famous is actually a documentary, a influencer manager, a person who manages influencers, plays a social experiment, and he says, I can make anybody famous on Instagram, fake famous on Instagram, but famous to where nobody else would be able to tell, takes three relatively unknown Instagramers,

Starting point is 00:40:55 less than 5,000 followers, and instantaneously starts buying them followers, comments and likes, buying of the followers, and then he puts them in what our picture does, exotic locations. They're actually like a backyard, a fireplace, the closet.

Starting point is 00:41:12 Yeah, it's crazy. The roof of someone's house. It's all fake. It's all fake, everything. None of it is real. And two of the guys bow out. They're like, I don't like this. I'm not into it.

Starting point is 00:41:22 I'd rather have one guy is just totally, he just shuts down all together. He's like, someone calls him out, one of his friends says, I know that this didn't happen overnight, like what's going on with you, right? The other guy says, I'd rather 100 real followers than 100,000 fake ones. But the girl who goes through the experiment decides to roll with it for the three months and she actually becomes an Instagram influencer a star because of because the fake followers Made it appear that she was a real in right. Yes, right? But if it's that easily manipulated then what is I mean, I think we all I think you have to be living under a fucking rock to not understand

Starting point is 00:42:03 How Instagram and Facebook work, but you know, it's just, I don't know. I don't know. Like go to Instagram at the commercial break and follow up and feel different about it. What is crazy to me about Instagram and about all these media modalities is that sometimes they don't bleed over, right? It's like you can have a lot of people listening

Starting point is 00:42:24 to the commercial break, but absolutely no one following us on Instagram. I have guys that I work with who have millions and millions of followers on social media, and they have nobody listening to their podcast. It's like, it just seems strange to me that that doesn't transcribe in any way, shape, or form. You'd think it would, that if people were interested,

Starting point is 00:42:45 maybe people, maybe we're just not interesting enough people. And maybe we're too old, maybe we're not in the demo. Yeah, maybe we're different. Maybe it's, you know, when you get to my age, when you get to 32, maybe people just don't like you anymore. Yeah! Okay, ready? Life relationships, entertainment, sex, or food.

Starting point is 00:43:00 Okay, life. Life, okay, with life, we just did a life, but we'll do another we'll do another life Camping Instagram life was in life was in oh, okay, God camping. We'll do it Overrated over Raid it it sounds good if I don't have an air conditioner unit in room service I'm not going I don't like it I mean I could go maybe to two. I am a spoiled breath. Yeah, it's some people really love it. The people love it.

Starting point is 00:43:32 Those people are crazy in the head. Yeah, it's a whole other story when you're out there in the woods. I feel like people forgot your insect repellent. They're like real people. I know. I mean, like my my version of camping is a three day music festival where I can, you gotta drink my way through the three days and not have to deal with any of the camping shit. Yeah. Like, yeah. I don't have to actually sleep in the camping.

Starting point is 00:43:57 I don't even have camping. Yeah. Men faux. We don't have camping. Men faux, you're too old for this shit. Men faux. Bay you're too old for this shit Men faux Bay will not provide it Men faux your cheap ass didn't get VIP tickets

Starting point is 00:44:13 So fuck you Okay, uh Life relationships entertainment sex or food. I am going to take one from the entertainment category Joe Rogan, oh, I am going to take one from the entertainment category. Joe Rogan. Oh, I'm going for the king. Yeah, no, overrated. Overrated. I don't care for him, honestly.

Starting point is 00:44:33 Overrated. Here's what I said. I've listened to him quite a few times. Oh, God, I've listened to Joe a lot. And I still listen to him. His guests are questionable sometimes is why I'm going on the overrated side. I think Joe, here's what I think.

Starting point is 00:44:47 Okay. I think why Joe is so attractive to so many people. Is it like the new Howard Stern kind of? I think Howard and Joe don't even play in the same arena. I think that's not a fair comparison. I think it's apples and oranges. Howard focuses on entertainment and comedy, right? And Joe focuses on, he's sometimes entertainment,

Starting point is 00:45:06 sometimes comedy, but what he tends to focus on is like weird kind of a theory, like theories, right? I would, he's gone that down that road. Well, he's always been going down that road. He's always been an explorer. I'd stand up comedy. Rachel and I would do a stand up comedy, and it was funny. Yeah, listen, the guys are funny guys.

Starting point is 00:45:25 Uh-huh. I kind of got into another direction. Sometimes he does. It's hard to tell. That's the thing about Joe Rogan. I think he really cultivated this. I am a seeker of truth. I am an open-minded guy.

Starting point is 00:45:38 I am a logical thinker. I will hear all sides of the story and then I will make a decision. And think of almost everybody especially men who are tend to be sometimes logical thinkers I think sometimes I don't mean we get it right I mean we like to think or logical thinking Oh, my god, I think that's why he's I think that's why so many guys like Joe Rogan like to think or logical thinking. Please, you just said sometimes. Oh my God. I think that's why he's, I think that's why so many guys like Joe Rogan. It's because they like to think of themselves

Starting point is 00:46:09 as the exact same thing. Like I'm a logical, pragmatic, secret truth. I'm a passionate pragmatist. Pragmatic. Pragmatic. I think that's why Joe was so popular. Got it. Yeah. I think that opened the door, especially as the political environment got crazy. I think that opened the door for a few of the loony tunes to come in,

Starting point is 00:46:36 in an effort to seek truth. What he ended up doing was giving a big megaphone to some real fucking clueless people. Yeah. So, but I think that in general, overrated, that's my personal opinion. But that's coming from a guy who's been podcasting for many years. I mean, expert level.

Starting point is 00:46:57 Expert level podcaster, millions and millions of listeners in my mind. Getting paid hundreds of dollars on a yearly basis. Yeah, it's come to my guy. I'm a logical thinker. I'm a passionate pragmatist. Son, father. Sex life relationships. I like for entertainment. Six. Oh, look at you. Oral sex. Oral sex. Oh, spot on.

Starting point is 00:47:30 Spot on. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, if there was a cat, if we were playing underwhelmed, overwhelmed, then we could put ourselves in asterisk shoes and say, underwhelmed. Ha ha ha ha.

Starting point is 00:47:40 Ha ha ha ha. Ha ha ha ha. That's why underwhelmed, overwhelmed. Yeah. I think spot on. Spot on. I think Span on. Span on. I think it has a place in sex history. Right? Oral sex is one of those things that if you-

Starting point is 00:47:52 You've been going on for so long too. I love the Egyptian tombs that they find. Yeah, the Commissue Tra. The pictures are different. Yeah. Yeah, it's been going on for so long. I've been going on for so long. For generations and generations.

Starting point is 00:48:06 People have been giving each other a hit. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Today, this documentary takes a look and head through the ages. Oral sex. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:48:21 Oral sex and oral history. Oral sex. Oh, that's good. I'm with you. I think any credit against it deserves. Yeah, or a sex in oral history I'm with you. I think the any credit it gets it deserves. That's my personal opinion. I'm gonna go with relationships breaking up Breaking up breaking up. How can it go over? Underrated or average? Here's well, here's what it is. Everyone says that breaking up is so hard to do. It is hard. It's hard. If you're the breaker upper, it's hard. It's hard. It's easy. Take it from a guy who knows. Getting done for the easy part. I'm like, well, no, it's bad on both parts.

Starting point is 00:49:00 It can't be different. It's two days. Yeah, for different reasons, yeah. I think breaking up gets a bad rap. I think a lot of times you need to do it. Well, it does. And in the long run, and it's so cliche to say, but you dodge the bullet. In the long run, you'll never be the same. You'll never find anyone.

Starting point is 00:49:19 At last, like I'm reading Stevie Nicks biography right now. And I seem like her and Lindsey McKinham really still have this love for each other so I You know well, I mean long for a long time Well, they made the one of the girls Ever because of it That break up was a win for the rest of us. That's true. You know what I'm saying? I Think I do know what you're saying. Yeah, you know what I'm saying? Yeah Because the way it came out of my head.

Starting point is 00:49:47 I do. I'll confirm what I'm saying. You confirm what I'm saying. I appreciate it. You know what I'm saying? I do. Never just a guy that says, you know what I mean? Yeah.

Starting point is 00:49:58 Get you some of this. Get you some of this. Mm-hmm. Uh, so yeah, I think that break- I think break-ups- They're hard on breakups. They're hard on both parties. I think oftentimes they're not unless you're just a dick. Yeah, I'm a dick. I'll say it. I'll go with that. I'll roll with that one. You say I'm a dick or you're just saying a list. You're like unless you're going to say it. No, I got you. You know, no feelings. Yeah, but I'm still dick. You know what I mean? Get you some of this. I'm a big baby. I'm a big baby. Uh, okay. I'm gonna go with

Starting point is 00:50:43 food escargot. Oh, overrated. Overrated. Yeah. So here's the story. Asked her, now when we were dating, I I flew over to she was schooling in Switzerland. So I flew over to, she was schooling in Switzerland, so I flew over to Switzerland and then we took a train down to Paris to spend a week, which was quite frankly one of the most... Is that when you proposed? Yes, that was one of the most... So romantic.

Starting point is 00:50:57 Wonderful journeys of our relationship. Now we're lucky if we get out of it. Lance and those two kids. That's cool. Let's try Right now. Yeah, that's God. That's right for those kids. Yeah, that is. Like we're good. That was the high point.

Starting point is 00:51:11 We're going to my dad's house for the weekend. And I'm packing the entire household. That's it. I need a trailer to go somewhere for two days. So it's unbelievable. It really is. It's a problem. Yeah. Okay. So Astrid and I go to Paris. Yes. Right. And we I get a reservation at Chateau Laflou, whatever that is, I can't play some of the top of the Eiffel Tower. But I cannot afford to go there for dinner, right? Because it's like a thousand000 a plate. I can only afford to go there for lunch,

Starting point is 00:51:46 which is like $500 a plate. And even then, they won't let you split the plate, even though it's a 17-course meal, and who needs that in the middle of the afternoon. But you are sitting on top of the I-Potown. It's the, it's all about the experience, right? Well, four of the dishes include snails. It's like they just like put escargot everywhere.

Starting point is 00:52:03 It was really quite gross. But when you're paying however much you're paying per plate, you eat the fucking escargot. That's what you do. You have the escargot. Car oil butter. And here's the thing about that place. You got to pay before you go

Starting point is 00:52:15 and there's no cancellation policy. You know that? It's crazy. It's like whatever it is, chateau les chateau, or whatever. We did, however, we're overlooking the lecongre which is the street into the Congress and it was just so gorgeous picture perfect I wish the food had been good because I would have eaten it, but I just had to swallow Snails experience overlooking the Colosseum and Rome. We had this amazing dinner at the time. Oh, I thought you were talking about the Colosseum and Johnson City Tennessee.

Starting point is 00:52:44 I was watching three doors down in the Colosseum and Johnson City Tennessee. I was watching three doors down in the Coliseum Johnson City Tennessee. I want to kiss you like that. Yes, I do. Yes, I do. By the way, the band 33 will make an appearance on the commercial break the band 33 will use, of course, the band that was this close to rock star to him. I mean, we almost came up at the same time as Pearl Jammin and 33 will. We're neck and neck. You know, Eddie was 24. I was 15 at the time, but most people likened my voice to like a mix of Eddie Vetter, Poverty, the guy from Bush, Tori Amos.

Starting point is 00:53:31 Oh, it was, it was that flavor? Yes, that throaty scratchy. I know you were so close, Brian. So close. I can only imagine the people that Rolling Stone had typed up the article. They're still talking. They're still talking. Send out the demos.

Starting point is 00:53:54 So over the weekend, one of the old band members, what are the other things for that? I like the laugh. Me too. I forgot to turn off the laugh track. That's okay. Keep it coming. Yeah. That's the first interaction this podcast has ever

Starting point is 00:54:07 had. So I, one of the band members over the weekend says, I heard the podcast. I have the demo from the party that you played at the retirement home. I can't believe that wasn't your big break either. Right at the retirement. I have heard the demo and I can now believe that this wasn't our big break because it was

Starting point is 00:54:32 so bad. I thought to myself, this is going to be funny. We'll play some of it on the air. Brian is always, we're always poking fun in the people. What's good for the goose is good for the gander. I'm not even sure this warrants. I think we need a one 900 number. Where people pay to listen to it.

Starting point is 00:54:51 So I can go to therapy. They don't run down the road because it is bad. It is so bad. And of course, I have to play it because that's just who I am. That's just who I am, and that's just what I'll do. Okay, a couple more here. Let's not get too crazy.

Starting point is 00:55:08 We're way off track. Okay. As always, life, food, sex, relationships, entertainment. Okay. It's all you. I can't remember what I've done in life. Okay, in life, we have Hot Girl Summer. Hot Girl Summer. Is that a show? Okay, in life we have hot girl summer

Starting point is 00:55:29 No, it's a thing all the girls were saying no, it's this summer. I thought it was hot vax summer this summer. Oh I Right I started it. I think that's it. Yeah, I love her Yeah, but now you got all the girls on Instagram. We're all hot girls I'm gonna go for it girl go for it. Yeah, I'm saying you can't let that wait forever. So go for it Get it. I'm gonna go for a hot dad's summer. Yeah That dad bod summer Okay, let's do let's do one more

Starting point is 00:56:04 Okay, I'm gonna go for a controversial one here on Fireside. I'm going to take it from the Life category and I'm going to say Clubhouse. Overrated. You know what's that place that's turning into a cesspool of like weird conspiracy theories? It's really kind of crazy. No, I have been on it a long time. I just got to hate listening. Like people hate listening to the podcast. I go on there to hate listen.

Starting point is 00:56:26 So much rather fireside. Just gonna throw that out there. And I'm not saying that because just because I'm on fireside. I'm saying that because I like fireside. Yeah, for sure. Okay, hey, I like that game. And we got like 40 more left. So let's play it again on a different episode.

Starting point is 00:56:39 You will. For sure. So, okay. Do do do do do do do. Do do do do do. Do do do do do do do do. Do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do okay. Do do do do do do. Woo! Haha! I do love the sending music. So good. And to think that it's just like some random musicians that are actually putting this great music together and then selling it for a dollar ninety-nine to the commercial break.

Starting point is 00:57:01 I would have happily paid more, you know? Like those session musicians that were part of the, you know, Canyon. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, there was a documentary about that recently. I loved that. Somebody was asking me, they were like, well, desession musicians, do they make any money?

Starting point is 00:57:16 And I'm like, no, they get paid for the day. That's what happens. They get paid for the day, and that's it. They don't get like songwriter credits. And I'm like, fuck you. You come in to play for like a heavy hitter that's written a song, you're getting $1,000 for the day. And then if you're lucky, they'll take you out on tour.

Starting point is 00:57:30 And that's how you'll make a little extra money. But you're never getting any recording rights. You don't know your music rights, no. Because we're talking about a friend of mine, one of the guys from 33 Willie, became a session musician, right? And when he became a session musician, he was asking, hey, do you think that guy makes any money?

Starting point is 00:57:47 Yeah. And I'm off the music that he's written because he's got like gold albums and I'm, I said, I think he's lucky he got the gold album, quite frankly. Nothing guy makes any kind of money. He's like, we're like the social break. We're like the session musicians.

Starting point is 00:57:58 We're like the session musicians of podcasting. Yeah. Yeah. Yup. Oh, it's okay. We're getting there. We are, we are. We just completed 100 so again. Once again. We're getting that we are we are we just completed a hundred so again once again We've got the content. We've got the audience. We may not have the Instagram got the audience.
