Starting point is 00:00:00 You're listening to Giraffe King's Network. These side marios all you can eat is all you can maja soup, salad, and garlic homo. Come on, me, I'm gonna move on up here! Welcome to the big sui! Presented by DraftKings. Why are you listening to this show? The podcast that seems very similar to the other Dan Levitard podcast. I'm sorry, I'm not gonna apologize for that.
Starting point is 00:00:35 In fact, the only difference seems to be this imaging. I have been tempted in restaurants just walking past tables to grab somebody's fries that if they're just there. That hasn't happened to you guys. I've done it. And now, here's the marching man to nowhere, that face and the habitual liar. Under the best of circumstances,
Starting point is 00:00:56 the Greg Cody Tuesday is just a generally messy experience. But he underestimates as he did last time, even though he doesn't remember. the last time he had his hand. And what's supposed to be, by the way, a jar of mayonnaise, old iron fist back there is letting this slide, this is not the same punishment as a jar of mayonnaise, but he did the jar already though. This is just for fun,
Starting point is 00:01:17 he's, I don't know why he's doing this. He's having trouble not being able to use the second hand, it makes his head said something that's sliding on and off and he cannot fix it without getting mayonnaise all over himself and he doesn't like the smell of mayonnaise. I have a question first you gots were you the one who did the mayonnaise hand thing previously? I think I was yeah so Greg has never done this punishment. I do like dad has to. I just have fried minds around me like you would think that somebody would remember if they had their hands
Starting point is 00:01:47 You know that there's people in the audience that remember it vividly But we literally are blacked out every time we leave the I've had my hand in the dirt No, there was a hand there was a hand in in mayo before I think what happened was Greg selected it and then Stugots paid it off for some reason. And we were like, you're not doing this for any reason. Listen, my job's not to remember it's to rule with an iron fist and I think we can all agree.
Starting point is 00:02:13 Things are back on track here. We're debating Jess and I, what, like three hours straight with your hand in mayonnaise, well, I don't know why I said mayonnaise, we're there. We'll do to your skin. She actually thinks it could be a positive thing. It seems like it would moisturize at some point. Yeah, I do too. That's a benefit.
Starting point is 00:02:29 I should, yeah, I should bathe in mayonnaise because my entire skin needs this kind of thing. It's like hand lotion. It's really disgusting. It is not like hand lotion. I'm waiting for it to drip. I'm waiting for it to drip. You're out of the mail right now.
Starting point is 00:02:45 So that's the punishment. I mean, Arizona on the bagel rest, the bagel arm rest. Yes, he's got a bagel cushioning his arm. Bent and bending. This punishment is so hot and hard for him that he had to move it from a jar. It really is. We're catering to him.
Starting point is 00:03:00 By the end of this, he will be getting a manicure with mayonnaise. That'll be great. And it won't be a punishment. A Mayo here. It'll be a reward of some sort. Let's play for the audience based on that jeans conversation. Publicatory finds out is three times a week. It's exceptional.
Starting point is 00:03:19 Every episode is excellent. He talked to action, Bronson last week who said that jeans are not in his life and neither are pants. He hasn't worn pants in a really long time. When was the last time you wore pants? I don't probably 15 to 20 years. The last time I put pants on, I had an accident and I never wore them again. What happened? Just wasn't good. It just wasn't good. It can't be discussed. It can't be discussed But what I will say that they were never to be touched on my skin again every time I've ever seen you You're wearing shorts and they're stretchy so I could squat so I could work out I'm not f***ing around with stiff shorts. You understand? I'm over here flexible
Starting point is 00:04:04 Seems really high. Which one? There are people all over Florida who have not worn pants in a decade for for any reason. I don't say I don't I wouldn't say it's the majority, but where would you put the number? Because I think there is a 5% population in Florida that is simply either doesn't own pants or will simply never wear them. If I could get away with it, I would. I would try to live that way.
Starting point is 00:04:34 Since when aren't shorts, pants, like, they're shorts. When he says I haven't worn pants in 15 or 20 years, you've got them just in underwear all the time. Yeah, I mean, I'm wearing a pair of pants right now, they just happen to be shorts. If it shorts aren't pants, pants are long. Come on, it.
Starting point is 00:04:50 No, I disagree. What do you mean you disagree? I agree. Look it up. Okay, we're going to look it up, but I thought that pants always extended beyond the knee. No. Are we doing like all shorts are pants,
Starting point is 00:05:02 but not all pants are shorts right now? Yeah, correct. Well said. we doing like all shorts or pants, but not all pants or shorts right now? Yeah, correct. Okay. Well said. I'm seeing a definition that says an outer garment extending from the waist to the ankle and covering each leg separately. That's hard to believe.
Starting point is 00:05:14 I'm seeing the definition of shorts as short pants that reach only to the thighs or knees. Short pants. You told them to look crazy. That's a marion webster. Marion webster. Moutotino. Or she, right. They's from Miriam Webster. Miriam Webster. You would have seen her. Or she.
Starting point is 00:05:25 Right. The phrase is short pants. Right? You're going to stay and try some of this one. Yeah. You may be right is usually what he says. Well, don't tell me you haven't worn pants in 15 years when you're wearing pants while you say that.
Starting point is 00:05:40 That's good. But you asked somebody to look it up and they did and you're disputing what it is they looked up. Yeah, but then waiter Jeremy testified that the phrase is short pants. No, but anything for you, baby. Thank you. I'm a big tipper. So bake it up. You're not a big tipper.
Starting point is 00:05:56 I am a big tipper. The big tipper is a big tipper. I'll tell you that. He's 20. We started 20% around here and then work our way up. He couldn't. The waiter and steamie coming into the restaurant. They're like fighting each other to get over to my table.
Starting point is 00:06:10 I want that guy. That couldn't be a big further from the tree. It's just flying. To be able to refer to him as the big dipper, we just don't know. I find that hard to believe. It just rhymed with tipper and he thought that was great content.
Starting point is 00:06:21 That's big content. It was, but he definitely works his way down, right Dan? Like, he's looking for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for,
Starting point is 00:06:32 for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for, for I diminish for bad service. You don't pay that much extra for good service. Oh, I do. Dad, I have to watch you. When I'm out the lunch with you, I see I have to check what you're tipping.
Starting point is 00:06:49 Please call your mother. I'd like to talk to your mother about his wife. Oh, I'm a big tip. Okay, well, we'll ask your wife. You know, will you be okay with her ruling on this? Well, she's gonna demean me. She's gonna play along with, she gets the show. She's gonna demean me. She's gonna play along with she gets the show. She's gonna intentionally say 15%.
Starting point is 00:07:07 When I haven't left a 15% tip in 15 years, like that guy now, weren't pants. Did you run out of breath there? Yeah, a little bit. It happens. It does happen, thank you. If it happens permanently, then I'm in trouble. Who's the guy, take a guess, and who's the guy,
Starting point is 00:07:23 who's not wearing pants? You know, they said action, Bronson or something and I thought it was that actor Peter Pierce Bronson. That's what I thought they meant. Who's action Bronson? See a wrestler? Who is that guy? Pierce Bronson. I want to cover this for a second because I thought for sure he'd think that action Bronson was the action star Charles Bronson. Okay, that would make sense too. No, but that's your will out. But Bronson, not Bronson.
Starting point is 00:07:54 Well, I thought Pablo mispronounced the name of his guess. That's what I assume. Wait a minute. So you think you're so right all the time that Miriam Webster is wrong and that Pablo is wrong. You think you're so consistently right that when you do the thing wrong, you think you're so right all the time that Miriam Webster is wrong and that Pablo is wrong. You think you're so Consistently right that when you do the thing wrong, you think everyone else is wrong and that you still have it right no I admit I'm wrong with the best of them You are the worst not true, but all don't find that hard to believe don't try to tell me I'm not wearing pants right now
Starting point is 00:08:20 That's all I'm saying if you could hear me just understand. I'm sorry We will try and get Erlin Cody on to see what she would say, whether you're good at admitting you're wrong. How about whether I'm a good tip? One of the worst I've ever seen. Asker is the big dipper, a big tipper, and then see what she says. I love it.
Starting point is 00:08:40 Why would your nickname be the big dipper? Why not? You don't want to know, baby. Baby, that ain ha, ha. Baby, that kinda thing. No, I'm just kidding. That's not my nickname. But Big Tipper could be my nickname.
Starting point is 00:08:54 It could be. In fact, let's make that my nickname. Hey, Big Tipper. It's a great nickname. It is. BT for short, it comes with expectation. Yeah, well, you know, I love a nickname with a nickname BT Every Tuesday the visual snapshot I will give the audience that is my haunting
Starting point is 00:09:14 Is when that happened and what I see behind either Chris Cody or my grinds head strategically Trying to hide from me unsuccessfully is the sinking laughing Billy Gill. Who's, who's, who's the, you get smaller, you get physically smaller because you're so delighted. But you also know that it's totally off the rails and it's making even you uncomfortable. I like the role I've had to play today
Starting point is 00:09:42 where I'm having to give serious Josh Allen analysis because they're arguing over Mayo and you're clearly getting bothered. I, um, I, well, I'm, I'm only clearly getting bothered here. Stop caressing the Mayo. It's because Chris Cody's father has descended into just telling giant lies and i already got one of those hey i don't need a second one of it did just giant lies like he's not paying attention to any of the things that he's saying that are coming out of his mouth and they're the opposite of what is actually true i heard another giant
Starting point is 00:10:17 lie which apparently Greg said that if my amy beets looval the season was a success yes correct yeah if my am assuming they went went out and finish beats Louisville the season was a success. Oh my God. That's correct. Yeah. If I am assuming they went out and finished eight and four, juxtapose against five and seven with wins over Clemson, with wins over number eight. I think they're eight and nine now. Texas A&M. Progress, good recruiting.
Starting point is 00:10:42 You could make an argument that if they beat Louisville, they still have a chance to to call this a successful season i believe it but if they lose the next two games mario didn't want to be in a bowl game anyway sad if they lose the next two games nobody is going to call it a successful season including mario i can think of one person who might just that uh... you are you're being very gentle with kody because you came in here before he was here scoffing and you revoked his columnist license.
Starting point is 00:11:09 Well, I'm sick of Miami fans moving the goalpost for what is a successful season. I agree beating Louisville would be great. It's going to be very hard to do given the quarterback injury last weekend, I think. But you can't be like, oh, yeah, now seven and five. That's what we want it all along. That's that's success. We knocked off Louisville. Well, first of all, if they went out, they're going to be eight and four, right?
Starting point is 00:11:32 They will be. Yes. Well, look it up. We'll look it up. Right. Greg, you wrote a column about this. She wants to revoke your license as a columnist, writer. And now you're asking the question after having written the column that if they be Louisville and now you're asking
Starting point is 00:11:48 us what their record let's let's make this clear I did not write a column about that I put it in my show topics it's one sentence and not write a column on that column worthy I might write a column on that but I haven't yet thank you for the distinction you know they they were five and seven last year if they go eight and four with with great a great recruiting class on the horizon you're reaching you're reaching they would be eight and four great but i can't be the standard at the
Starting point is 00:12:15 university of the end it just can't be the Boston college yeah i was definitely gonna win this yet what happens if they be louville but they lose the bottom college then there's confusion. Yeah, what happens? What any Keynes fan should be looking for is progress They're not gonna go from five and seven to 11 and one in the college football playoff You want progress. That's why Texas A&M is is paying huge money to get rid of Jim Bofischer Why because they're they're stuck in neutral A&M is paying huge money to get rid of Jimbo Fisher. Why?
Starting point is 00:12:52 Because they're stuck in neutral. I think it was the phrase they use. My Emmy is not stuck in neutral. If they go from five and seven to eight and four with a great recruiting class incoming, that's not neutral. That's progress. What if it's six and six though? Obviously, you're less you're less pleased by that. I'm not pleased by that. Still progress though technique. Well, it's not enough progress. Eight and four to me is enough progress after the last season. You know, you take away the nightmare of Georgia Tech, which is inexcusable the way that game ended. And there has been palpable progress this year. I'm not being a homer for UM. That's what I believe. Living in a world of trending topics and keeping up with sports and culture that you actually care about can feel like a full time job. We're talking about relentless app notifications, fragmented subreddits, and an avalanche of unhinged opinions on Twitter.

Starting point is 00:15:08 He's been on all the morning shows. And now he comes in here to the bottom wrong of the show business ladder, where Greg Cody has his hand in mayonnaise, but together they have partnered to create a best-selling book that's not quite available yet, but you can pre-order it. And we'll get to that in a second But Ron McGill is in studio with us to got says fled the premises
Starting point is 00:15:32 Because he doesn't trust Ron McGill he's run out of the room. Why? Well, I'm gonna put it in the box. Yeah, I got an animal in that box There's a snake in that box Dan. I'm telling you there's no snake in the box There was last time. Oh, there was last time, but you know you had to change What have you scared him with there? Have been cricket? There's been he has run out of the stale. I remember that he went in destroyed equipment He was really bad news. He wasn't good about that. There's a bird of some sort one time wasn't there I know. Oh, yeah, it was a little out. We brought to the studio the out the big out It's flat in the studio, but it was the the hissing roaches in the small studio where he damaged equipment and he was crying.
Starting point is 00:16:07 He had tears in his eyes. That's when I realized, you know, this was beyond the show and I had a stop because I was worried about it. Because you throw insects at me like they're confetti. I was showing them to you, but you had no word to own. You threw cricket in the owl. You did throw crickets at him. You did throw crickets. I did throw crickets at him. I did throw crickets thrown at you. Not the hissingots in there. You did throw crickets. I did throw crickets in there. I did throw crickets thrown at you. Not the hissing roaches, but you did have crickets. No, you know what I think happened is I had them in my hand
Starting point is 00:16:29 and they jumped on them. They jumped off of my hand and they jumped. Yeah, I crick it. They jumped and he couldn't handle that very well. And then when he's, when I saw him really crying and then I said, well, this is serious. No, I don't want to get sued. Where does it rank in terms of people?
Starting point is 00:16:41 You've got unusual reactions in your life to bringing animals around. Is stewgots like top of the list in terms of people you've gotten unusual reactions in your life to bringing animals around is stew got's like top of the list in terms of fear or there are other you've had that are worse this is one young lady who screamed and fainted I mean actually fainted she just passed out and I felt really bad about that too so I have to be very careful when I do these things now because you know I don't you're an ambassador for the animals yeah I don't want to be spreading fear absolutely so I really don't do that anymore and I apologize this to you guys. I sincerely apologize to him because I felt terrible. I mean he was
Starting point is 00:17:12 crying. This was not fake. You know, sometimes you do stick for the show, but the guy was generally really upset. Ron, have you been following this owl in the Lower East Side in Manhattan named Flacco? Flacco, yes. Is he looking for a mate or not? What's his story? Yeah, probably looking for a mate, probably looking for a mate. Listen, let me explain something. It's going to all my old hunts when I was looking for a mate in the Lower East Side.
Starting point is 00:17:32 Every animal is always, once they become sexually mature, they're always looking for a mate. It's the single most powerful biological drive there is. Let me show Ron McGill a video here of a lion, an escaped lion. I don't know the back story here except that it's a circus and we're outside in Rome. You tell me how common this is, how weird it is, how dangerous it is to just have a lion roaming the streets at night and at some point it's going to get hungry. Well, I will tell you this is the first time I've ever seen it,
Starting point is 00:18:03 so it's not common. This is an adult male lion. He's at least four or five years old because he's got a pretty full mane on him. He looks confused. He looks confused, but he also doesn't look like he's a wild lion. I'm assuming that this lion is probably some kind of long-term captive of circus lion,
Starting point is 00:18:19 something like that. It is, it's a circus lion. There you go. So he's kind of like, like a chee. You can just tell him just by looking at him. But he's looking but he's looking for something of familiarity. He's not panicked. He's not upset about anything. He's obviously used to being around people. So he doesn't present as much of a danger as another lion would. Have you ever gotten that wrong or is anyone I when I was in Africa and we were close to a lion that had just eaten. It didn't feel safe to me.
Starting point is 00:18:45 It didn't feel like my guide knew so much that I wasn't in any peril, but you can largely tell whether or not a lion is interested in bothering you or not. Yes, yeah. There are certain things that lions do. You see the tip of the tail, twitch, you see the positioning of their ears, you see the look in their eyes, the wrinkle in their face.
Starting point is 00:19:03 There's a focus that lions have when they're focused on either. When they're hungry, Dan has a similar life. And it's not hungry. I wouldn't worry about him going after you to eat you. I'd worry about him just thinking it's a competition. It's a territorial thing and he's going to establish his dominance. That's, and you see that in any cat.
Starting point is 00:19:18 So in that video, we see a lion on a city street. If there's a pedestrian on the other side of the street, how aggressive is that lion likely to be? Will he probably attack that person or avoid him? I don't know how to predict that. I would tell you that I doubt that he would attack that person. Most likely he'd probably avoid him or just look at him because being a circus lion, I mean,
Starting point is 00:19:41 think of where that lion's been. He's been surrounded by people screaming and cheering and he's numb to that now. So that's like just a piece another tree in the parking lot You are against circuses correct. I'm against circuses with animals I love circuses like a circus. So lay stuff like that But I'm against having animals in circus. There is no circumstance under which you would be pro circus I would be pro circus with an animal if it was like domestic dogs You know that type of thing
Starting point is 00:20:05 where you're working with domestic animals that are obviously want to have that human interaction, but I would never ever support any kind of exotic animals. What are the animals that do like discipline, that like human discipline other than dogs? Well, I don't know if I'd say a human discipline, I think human connection, you know, the human interaction. No, but what I mean is that you can train them at least in part because they're so eager to please that they don't take discipline as anything other than something that is loving. I'm left to assume. Oh, yeah, you'd have to define discipline.
Starting point is 00:20:34 I mean, there's a line between discipline and abuse, but having said that, yeah, if you're training at it. Whoa, abuse. I'm just talking about like training and animal. Well, some idiot might say, you know, when I smack my dog across the face, I'm just disciplining them. No, that's an abuse. So I want to make that very, very clear. But dogs like to be obedient. Do they not? Dogs like to please their...
Starting point is 00:20:54 Bay, what does that mean? That is... That is Greg Cody disciplines his animal. That's Bay, and we've got an executive producer speaking into the wrong guys. Yeah, jumping Charlie, when he's misbehaving, like when he's jumping on my wife and everything and she doesn't like that, all I have to do is go, Bay, and he hears that sound.
Starting point is 00:21:16 That's what I wanted. And he, you know, he knows that that's me saying you're not doing something right right now, quit that. Absolutely. And animals can pick that up either in a vocalization or even something right right now quit that. Absolutely. And animals can pick that up either in a vocalization or even in a look, even in a posture. Right. The animal can pick it up. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:31 Ron, one of the things that people who are, I hear this a lot with like the horses in Central Park that drive, you know, the carriage horses like, oh, they like having a job to do. Is that a misconception? You know, on good conditions and, you know, 50, 60 degree day, it's fine. Putting those horses out in the heat of the summer of New York, putting them out in the cold and the freezing weather and the snow of New York, I'm sorry, that's not OK.
Starting point is 00:21:55 You know, a horse can be domesticated to pull a carriage and good comfortable situations. But when you're making a horse do things and extreme weather conditions and extreme situations, he, no, I'm sorry. I can't support that. Jeremy, do they like having a little job to do? No, they don't. In good conditions are they like, oh, I get to go to work.
Starting point is 00:22:13 No, I think I think horses like interaction, but the job of pulling a cart the same place every day I don't think they look forward to that. They like their off days just as much as they're working days. Yes, I think if you gave it the horse the choice, it would rather stay in the barn or in the barn. I've got them watching Red Zone on Sundays. They're also not being compensated fairly. I think they should unionize.
Starting point is 00:22:35 Hey, Ronnie, I'm dressed as a raider today and wondering if raider, we're, we're today and wondering if any animals would make a good waiter. So bad. What animal would make that story? I'm sorry. I also have another question if you'd prefer. No, I didn't have that. That was a good question, Dan.
Starting point is 00:22:54 I was not coming from. Go sit in the penalty box. Yeah, it's waiting. I don't like that character. What if we need him? It's a, why would we need him? He's a waiter. I guess.
Starting point is 00:23:03 No, thank you. Do you need anything, Ron? Paul? Paul is here? You drink anything? No, I'm good. You good? Let's let's play the beetle video. Please this beetle. I don't know It's a bomb. Do you know the bombardier beetle? Do you know anything about it? How it defends itself Ron? I'm not sure. No, I don't okay. Oh, that's okay. Yes. That is boiling hot acid from its ass Jesus. Yeah, yeah from acid from the abdomen. Yes, the tongue boiling hot acid from its ass. Jesus. Yeah, yeah Acid from the abdomen. Yes, the tongue twister. That is not from the ad abdomen. That is from the ass Good for this guy. Yes, it's smoking smoking
Starting point is 00:23:36 That's boiling that's boiling ass. That's me on a Sunday watching the red zone I mean, no, you said they scared me for a second. No, you are not taking bong hits up your ass. Like, you know, you know, not gonna see you try to. What is that, Ron? What is happening right there? That's boiling acid. It's an acidic, yeah. It's an acid that the animal expels kind of like
Starting point is 00:23:56 is a very effective deterrent, obviously. You know, other animals do things similar. Snakes, they do a thing called musking, where they send that a musk that is an awful smelling stuff. You can't, no matter how much you wash your hands, you can't get it off. So it's like a skunk using the same thing. So I almost have different defense mechanisms.
Starting point is 00:24:14 That's one for that beetle. What is the strangest thing that an animal will shoot out at somebody? Horned lizards will shoot blood out of their eyes. That will shoot out of their eyes. And that will freak you out.

Starting point is 00:27:19 You're one of them. Ron McGill and Quasi. Quasi's not a person. He's a human being. He's a being. He's not a human being, but a being. The animal Quasi. You're reporting in this book that the lion is a human being. Buy the book everyone. That's right. That's what we're reporting. Expert and author Greg Cody. He thinks lions are human beings.

Starting point is 00:27:48 correct do that now order in the next 24 hours pre-order well kawasi part of the the sub thing of this book is that the more we understand animals the more they seem to have answer from or from orfric what's that word that's it from orfric And so when you read this book, you will have an understanding of quasi and other lines that maybe you didn't have beforehand. And I think you'll have a better understanding yourself too. Really?
Starting point is 00:28:16 That's a great promise. That's a big promise for us. I think you will. I think you will. This animal went through some incredible challenges, incredible struggles, and met and exceeded all expectations. I am not promising the people that you will know yourself better after reading I am. There you go. But there you go. I can. Okay. A pride of a lion. He thinks lions are human beings. Again the
Starting point is 00:28:39 author of the book might as well be. Thank you gentlemen. The quality is better than a lot of human beings. I know. I'll tell you that. Ooh, well, leave me. Name names.

We'll get to that in a second. But the first thing I want to show you and the audience to got, I wasn't sure this was real or if it was the internet fooling me, I don't know why Jared Leto would be climbing the Empire State Building. I am always horrified basically by any video and I can't stop watching them as well.
Starting point is 00:30:20 Great height videos being flippant with your life and the sky videos, jumping from great heights. All of these videos will suck me in every time. All of them are horrifying to me because, you know, I'm in an algorithm. I'm stuck in an algorithm where they, where they, I'm sent video all the time. Would you do this job for $50 an hour? And it's somebody on the side of a building doing an incredibly complex job that a Windgust comes in and I'm scared for that person but why is Jared Leto risking his life? Is it part of a movie promotion? It can't be for publicity. This has to just be a hobby.
Starting point is 00:30:55 He's dressed as Santa. I gotta tell you, it looks like it's dangerous. It's not something I would do but it looks really cool. Like it's a cool video to send out. I know but it's cool at least in part because it's horrifying. And there's drone footage here that you can see that it is magnificent in scope. And Jared Leto looks very small and very high
Starting point is 00:31:13 at the top of one of the tallest buildings in New York. His skincare routine is unmatched too because that is a very old individual. For celebrity, you're not allowed to really get to that age and remain relevant, but he's a bit of a showman. I don't know if you've seen some of the videos from his band, 32nd Samaras, they've played a couple of festivals,
Starting point is 00:31:32 and what he does is he gets to the very top of the structure on these main stages, very high up. They kind of bungees down. Very theatrical, if you've ever seen them in concert, it's always more style than substance. You end up singing more of the lyrics in Jared Leto, not hating, I'm just saying the fact, If you've ever seen them in concert, it's always more style than substance. You end up singing more the lyrics in Jared Leto. I'm not hating, I'm just saying the fact,
Starting point is 00:31:49 but it reminds me of another video that I saw because I was on a Jared Leto algorithm myself. And from several years ago, when he was doing that thing where other people sing for him, he was demanding in a very pompous way that everybody get out of their seats. If you don't get out of your seats, we're never coming back. I'll get out of here right now. Everybody, you over there, you're sitting down.
Starting point is 00:32:10 Get the bleep up out of here. Yeah, you, I'm looking right at you. Sopian selfish, get up. It was a kid in a wheelchair. Oh boy. Apparently he did this to announce that his band is going on a world tour. Oh, nice.
Starting point is 00:32:25 How about you do it without the rope though? I mean, you get a scale of building, scale of building. That's it. Thank you. Thank you. I mean, geez. Do you want to make news? What the rope kind of takes away from?
Starting point is 00:32:35 How about setting out a facts? What happened to a facts? Ah, facts. Tor dates. Mm-hmm. How much of that video do we have? Did he start at the bottom or did he start on like the 144th floor? I read that he's the first person to do this, which I was surprised to hear.
Starting point is 00:32:55 I'm surprised he was allowed. I also want to share a letter. I also want to get a letter. You got a letter on him. Let's examine for a second what I said because I got caught up in the air. I'm assuming that the Empire State Building is not the tallest necessarily building in New York. Where does this building rank in terms of tallest structures in the world? Empire State Building's 54th in the world right now
Starting point is 00:33:24 as far as height. It's not even the tallest in New York obviously. One World Trade Center is the seventh tallest in the world. Victor Wemma Nyama 6th. Where's the else sir? I don't know why. Billy did that. I'm not sure how that's useful or helpful. Just asking a question. Yeah, but it's useless. I would say generally speaking. A brief reference. Yeah, if we could tout that worth number 7,574. Good number. The warholds tall as a behelvings here at the L.
Starting point is 00:33:54 Tony, what happened? Control F, that one, Tony. What happened with your friend? Dan, so you know, look, everybody's got that friend that you're super appreciative for. You love him for him. He's a big fan of the show. I told him, hey, everybody's got that friend that you're super appreciative for. You love him for him. He's a big fan of the show. I told him, hey, I'm going up for the weekend for UFC.
Starting point is 00:34:10 I come to over at my house in Brooklyn. I'm like, excellent. UFC gets out late. It was about one o'clock, one 30. I start calling him up. Hey, I'm gonna be coming home around like one 32 o'clock. Let me know, let me a key. Do something.
Starting point is 00:34:23 All right, I left you a key somewhere you can find it and I'll be up, so I'll leave the door on lock, just walk in. I'm like, all right, cool. I finally get into the Uber, I get to the, to the, to his apartment, the key is exactly where he left it, on like a little side thing, I open the door, I walk up, I'm like perfect, good timing,
Starting point is 00:34:40 I have an early flight, I'm first flight out, Stu always taught me, first flight out, never miss it, so the problem is, it's 340, it's 140 in the morning and I've got to get to the hotel to the airport by 530. So I got like a four-hour window of get in, pack, sleep, get out. No traffic. It'll be clean. It'll be easy. It'll be super easy. Exactly. So I get up the stairs, getting ready. I have all my stuff with me. I have one key, but he told me I've got two keys one for the front and one for the door So I'm like, all right perfect. There's only one key. Here's a problem
Starting point is 00:35:13 Very thin walls at the apartment, right? So you can hear if you if I can paint the picture the hallway for you very narrow Hallway so his apartment door is here and within three feet where I can touch there's another apartment door. I go to open the door, the key doesn't work. I hear Paul Blatt-Malcott playing on the other side of the door. One or two. I, I, I, one I think. So I hear it playing and he's like,
Starting point is 00:35:36 look, I'm gonna leave my phone on loud just in case I fall asleep, that I'll be able to hear the phone. After the fourth or fifth miss call, where I hear the phone on the other side of the door, and I can't open the door, and I'm banging on the door, I'm like, do this guy fell asleep or he died? I don't know which one it is.
Starting point is 00:35:51 The tenth call, he's still not up. 35 minutes, I'm waiting in front of this door, and remember, the apartment's right here is behind me is another apartment. So I'm banging on the door. You're also, this is a funny part of New York, right? You have spent how much time in buildings like this, where the hallways,
Starting point is 00:36:09 you can reach both sides of the hallways because everything is on top of each other in a very tight space. Literally three feet were the difference. I don't even know if you opened doors at the same time, you'd be able to open each one. Like they were like half, you'd have to like, squeeze out of it, right?
Starting point is 00:36:22 We're basically walking down the hallway sideways sideways. And I am banging on this door, but Paul Blart is playing at such a high level that he doesn't hear the door. Oh, like me banging on the door. I say Paul Blart. The dog next to me and the other apartment is screaming his head off because he thinks I'm knocking on his door. It's three in the morning. And it's three in the morning. After the 15th miss call, Paul Blart finally stopped playing, right? And I'm like, oh, I think this is my chance.
Starting point is 00:36:48 There was a chance, boys, that I was gonna give, I was gonna hold the other door and give like a donkey kick, like to the back of the door or donkey, he's like, what? You wouldn't have done it. What do you mean at this point? If you wanted to do it, you would have done it. He would have done it, but there's no way it works.
Starting point is 00:37:02 I don't think. A donkey kick to the door. You're trying to kick the door is a thing. It was a flimsy door. Okay, the problem is I couldn't break through the bolt So wait a minute So you were thinking not of knocking on the door so loudly with a donkey kick that you wake him up You were thinking of breaking the door knob and breaking down breaking through the door Yeah breaking through the door the donkey kick Why he might be dead in there Dan Kevin might be dead. I don't know where Kevin is at this point. It was a little worked.
Starting point is 00:37:26 Well, did you get an answer to your mystery? So here's the thing. He died. I... He was murdered. He's arrested. He likes to help Kevin and his family. So, recipes.
Starting point is 00:37:36 Rest of it. That's the other problem, right? It was called in New York, it's in the 40s. I'm wearing a hoodie. I'm wearing dark clothing. So if there's a camera... I'm gonna shot you in that incredibly thin dark clothing. So if there's a camera in the shot, you're in that incredibly long way. Kevin Locker on McGill's wildlife conservation
Starting point is 00:37:50 fun. So after the 15th miss call, Paul Blot, Paul Blot goes off. Finally, I hit the door with an elbow, a couple of these. Boom, boom, he wakes up. He wakes up. He's finally asking that you contribute to Destiny Hardens and I. Please. The love he paints. He unlocks the door, looks at me and goes, it was open the whole time. Oh no. I go Kevin, you just unlocked the door.
Starting point is 00:38:15 What do you mean the door was open the whole time? You just unlocked it. I was just sleeping. 45 minutes I was out there standing where the dog was going crazy. I think the landlord, the stupid one, was going to come and hit dog was going crazy. I think the landlord the sun was gonna come in like Hit me with a wrench. It was terrible. I was the lighting in there. Did you consider just laying down in front of the door? Oh, the floor is still no, I didn't like the floor. Filter floor. It does. Why was it three in the morning? They took the first flight out.
Starting point is 00:38:38 Well, he was getting home when you have CN 130. It's a break. I got a Brooklyn. That's tough. You know 30 minutes and then, you know, Tony's living a younger life than you are at this point. Almost let me down, Dan. I'm Kevin. Almost let me down. Billy, you don't know. You remember this time in your life, perhaps, but Tony is living now.
Starting point is 00:38:55 You are a father of two. I don't think Billy ever had any time like this in his life. I would go up at three thirty in the morning. Well, now in a panic. That's right. It's a parent. All right, bed broke. Did it? Last night just in the middle of the night just fell. Then I had to get up.
Starting point is 00:39:10 I had to try to fix the situation. I'm there. I'm trying to like go and knock on the thing with a hammer while not waking people up. It was one of those like central support beams down the middle of the bed that just kind of slid. And then when I took it apart because I have like those like slots, those wooden slots and I'm trying to get my legs in between, just try to get to that little support beam. I take it out and I see that the metal is like completely bent. So then I try to quietly hammer, which isn't a thing that happens in the middle of the night.
Starting point is 00:39:37 So I put it back together. I ended up just putting a yoga mat so it wouldn't slide again. And I thought, this is a tomorrow problem that I'm gonna have to deal with. So that's what Billy was doing when Tony was panting me. Well, so I go and I go and you know, this is a tomorrow problem that I'm gonna have to deal with. So that's what Billy was doing when Tony was panting. Well, so I go and I go and we have a conversation with my wife and we're just like, just sleep. If I may, real quick, just what time is this happening?
Starting point is 00:39:54 And this is startling you both away, correct? Cause the bed, you are both dead asleep and now the bed has fallen. You are completely collapsed, but you felt a leg in the middle broken. There was like a bump down. You both were, you were awoken with a start in the middle of the night. Both of you dead asleep by your bed falling apart. Yes.
Starting point is 00:40:16 Well, partially collapsing. And I honestly tried to pretend that I didn't feel it and waited until my wife said, did you feel that? And I was like, yes. That's a move. Yes. So I got that picture. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:40:28 I pretended to not feel it. When you opened it, I was hoping she would fix it. No, I was hoping she'd just leave it back to me. Exactly right, and I wouldn't have to deal with it. I do that with my daughters. Like when my daughter used to cry in the middle of the night, my wife would be like, do you hear that?
Starting point is 00:40:42 I'll be like, what? What? I pretend like I didn't hear the middle of a crazy dream. wife would be like, do you hear that? I'll be like, what? What? I pretend like I didn't. Oh, that's the middle of a crazy dream. What thought I heard yelling? How long is your daughter cried where you haven't said a word? You're fake sleepers.
Starting point is 00:40:53 And my wife gets up and I'm like, honey, I'll go. Honey, you want me to go? Well, she's outside of the door. She's there, you like a foot into her room. Yeah, how long? How long does that go on? Honey, I got this.
Starting point is 00:41:03 That she's walking up the stairs. I'll really hold him. You monster. You're both fake sleepers? Well, it happened the second time. After I fixed it, you'd be shocked to find out I didn't actually fix it. And it happened the second time I said, hey,
Starting point is 00:41:18 she's, it was pitchflax. She's like, do you think the bed's going to completely collapse? I go, I don't think so. Just stay on your side. I'll stay on my side. And we'll figure this out in the morning. Then she told me it collapsed again in the middle of the night at a different part, so I have to go home
Starting point is 00:41:30 and figure that out today. My wife's like, she's shouting daddy. How do you not hear her? Chris Cody, you are not only a fake sleeper. What? What? You're a fake sleeper. No, it was abrupt when you're faking.
Starting point is 00:41:44 Waking and woke it up. Huh? You gotta sell it. want it, you're a fake sleeper. No, it was abrupt when you're faking, wake up and woke it up. Huh? You gotta sell it. Yeah. You gotta pretend you're scared too. I just want to be clear. What happened? You're a fake sleeper.
Starting point is 00:41:54 You're a fake wakeer upper. And then you're a fake asker of, do you need my help? Yeah. And then you Nailed it. Andrew, a fake, ask her if I'm trying to generally be helpful. That's right.
