Starting point is 00:04:41 I really think that people that love burgers, that's like a cult. I think there's, like, some people— I love burgers, dude. like a cult. I think there's like some people. I love burgers, dude. Yeah. Some people are pizza people or burger people. Yeah. No, I love both. Well, yeah.

Starting point is 00:05:26 and obviously the show was not good because we're like, what's the best burger in Baltimore? Well, because I've been Googling. Wait, real quick, though. Oh, sorry, go ahead. I just Google, like, best fucking best bagel in Baltimore, best pizza in Baltimore, best burger, best pancakes. I just did that.
Starting point is 00:05:43 That was the first one I did yesterday. I just, like, I'm trying to figure it out, and, best burger, best pancakes. I just did that. That was the first one I did yesterday. I just like I'm trying to figure it out. And, you know, I love food so much. Same. But I'm not trying to be dick about it. And it's like weird. Well, yeah. I'm in a weird place.
Starting point is 00:05:57 Because you have to go to the websites that dickheads make. Yes. And you're like, I'm just visiting. I'm not a member. I'm behind enemy lines. You need to fucking talk about this. Honestly, the people who love food
Starting point is 00:06:10 but are not trying to be dick about it. I just want to eat a good burger. I don't want to be friends with anyone who writes a Yelp review. But you'll look at Yelp. But you look at Yelp! Oh no! You look at Yelp!
Starting point is 00:06:24 I do! God damn! Do you read them? I was going to try and lie and say no. And I only focus at Yelp! Oh, no. You look at Yelp! I do! God damn! Do you read them? Do you read them? I was going to try and lie and say no. And I only focus on the negative reviews. Of course you do. Yeah, like, I'm such a cuck.
Starting point is 00:06:33 Because that's what society is. I'm a cuck. Dude, but honestly, like, when I see in my news feed on Facebook that someone wrote a Yelp review, it's like, first, grossed you. Don't. Don't do that. Don't. And second, even grosser that you decided to share that shit on Facebook. Yes. It's like first gross. You don't. Don't do that. Don't second.
Starting point is 00:06:45 Even grosser that you decided to share that shit on. Yeah. A fucking. Yes. You're so. Yeah. Yeah. That's honestly grosser than somebody sharing like something from porn.
Starting point is 00:06:57 Yeah. It's way worse. It's way fucking worse. Because if you share that shit from porn, like, holy shit, you're a huge person. Yo, you share good porn? Oh, hell yeah. Thank you for sharing your wealth. Or even not good.
Starting point is 00:07:12 It's like, oh, you like MILFs? Right on. That's cool. But you're just open. You're open. It's the opposite of you. Versus like, three out of five for Famous Dave's barbecue. I don't even give a fuck if you wrote a place an amazing review.
Starting point is 00:07:25 Like, anyone gives a fuck what you think says the guy who's recording a podcast. I think Yelp. Well, yeah. Yeah, that said, fuck those people. Rate and review us on iTunes. I think pound for pound. Five stars or nothing. Yelp is the worst website on the internet.
Starting point is 00:07:42 Dude, totally. Pound for pound. You know what I love? Can you rate yelp where yeah i love that people can be sued now for what they write what because the shit is slander especially if you're talking about a business of course yeah and uh i sat next to a dude uh who worked at yelp at a dinner and he's's like, oh, man, we got into it. So then Yelp puts together these events where, like,
Starting point is 00:08:09 Yelp people go together and meet up. It's just like, I don't know. It's just gross. I think it's – I have a very, very complicated relationship with Yelp. All my friends who own businesses fucking hate Yelp. It's like – Or restaurant workers.
Starting point is 00:08:22 You know, I've worked in restaurants for fucking 20 years and yelp has only been around for like fucking five years of that or whatever it's like and i try to stay off of it and when i visit and i know this is gonna make me sound even shittier like but when i visit like i was in oakland and shit like i just really tried hard to ask like i would go in a coffee shop yeah whatever and i asked people but that's his own but that's his own thing because then like you're gonna get like a million different things and it's like that's fine i don't give a shit yeah okay yeah every meal i eat doesn't have to be the best meal exactly that's how i feel about it it's like i just want to fucking eat yeah like i went to new orleans and i like the worst thing you could possibly tell anybody is that you're going to New Orleans.
Starting point is 00:09:05 Because then they're going to be like, oh my god, you have to go to this place. And then this place. And it's such an obscure place. You've got to go to Long Daddy's. But the thing is, you've got to rent a boat to get to Long Daddy's. But it's worth it. Poor fucking New Orleans guy got there and i was like my head exploded and i was like i didn't i just like ate at this one fucking this one convenience store that also had fried chicken it was the best
Starting point is 00:09:33 that's like royal farms yeah yeah the royal farms it was it was a mom and pop royal farms called d uh it was called hanks hanks hanks but they had, like, the best chicken tenders. That's so tight. And then I was like, yeah. In their name, they don't even advertise they have chicken, but that's, like, the best you have. And then, like, I got back home, and everyone was like, you didn't go to Jumbo. You shouldn't have left. How dare you?
Starting point is 00:10:00 Eric, I was in Oakland. Atlanta is the same place. When I went to Oakland, people saw I was in Oakland Like you gotta do this Yeah Even like Oakland is really bad about that And my buddy

Starting point is 00:10:37 Like, that's – you know, like – but most people aren't like that. Like, a lot of people – like, with the internet, it the internet just like it seems like it's more convenient like it's like it gives the impression of convenience but it's not it's just like yeah it just like uh inundates you with like all these options that you can't fucking handle well it's also funny funny to me when people visit like even like when they go to a new country they're like i don't want to do touristy things like yeah everybody says that you're a tourist yeah you're literally a tourist you're literally a tourist and everyone says that you're not original just fucking cave into the fact yeah
Starting point is 00:11:16 like do you i went to uh the bay area yeah hell yeah i went to the golden gate bridge and of course you did it's gorgeous i got high they should literally sell t-shirts and say hell yeah i went to the golden gate yes hell yeah i did yeah no i was at the golden gate bridge and i it's legal there i think do baltimore people have t-shirts that say uh no i haven't seen the wire or yes i've seen the one because can i tell you something like before when i told people that i was all baltimore when i yeah when i told people i was moving to baltimore la like even before i moved to baltimore i got so sick of people bringing up the wire and i was like you had like and of course i've seen the one every comic who visits baltimore from bill burr to your
Starting point is 00:12:03 open mic or yeah has brought up the wire you saw bill burr he brought up the wire every comic who visits baltimore from bill burr to your open mic or yeah has brought up the wire you saw bill burr he brought up the wire and the most and the and the fucking dumbest most fucked up thing is is that literally my first like month yeah in baltimore i saw two cast members i said two i said two. I said two. Yo, man. Which ones? I said Kima. Yes. Kima came into my bar. Did she get wasted?
Starting point is 00:12:30 No. She ordered a Corona? Is she an alcoholic? No. Well, maybe. I remember she came in a Paper Moon. She got fucked up. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:38 Really? Paper Moon is booze? Josh put her on blast. Yeah, I didn't know she came in drunk because we used to be 24 hours. Oh, well, yeah. You worked at Paper Moon? Yeah. I love Paper know she came in drunk because we used to be 24 hours. Oh, well, yeah. You worked at Paper Moon? Yeah. I love Paper Moon.
Starting point is 00:12:47 Paper Moon is the most Baltimore place in the city of Baltimore. Guys, I'm not going to – I can't agree with you on that. Well, it's definitely a Baltimore spot. Like as far as we're talking about like – If you came to Baltimore, you got it. You have to. You got to look at the wall. They got toys on the wall.
Starting point is 00:13:02 But no, Kiva came in and she was so drunk. She was just laying on a table. Oh, wow. Like, back down. Oh, wow. But anyway, yeah, sorry. She ordered a fucking Corona. Well, she ordered a Corona and then she asked me if I sold bottles to go.
Starting point is 00:13:19 That's so rad. And I was like, no. And then she drank half a Corona and she left. Whoa, half a Corona. She was bad, dude. Honestly then she drank half a Corona and she left. Whoa, half a Corona. She was bad, dude. Honestly, she was such a good actor. She's so good in the show. Guys, can I say something?
Starting point is 00:13:32 I would be one of those people who would wear the shirt saying I didn't watch The Wire because I've never seen it. Good for you. Because there's too much pressure. Because honestly, it's very good. And you only have to see the fourth season anyway. Because I work in schools. With the kids yeah can i watch it all stand you i think the fourth season is by like the most standalone
Starting point is 00:13:52 season okay i think that i think it should be shown in all all right you know what i'm gonna watch it all right yeah start with the fourth and then i would say start from the beginning because the first could stand on its own yeah basically like, it was like, I don't know, like a law and order, but like a really in-depth one. The first season's great, man. Yeah. My brother. That's a good one. Yeah, it is like law and order.
Starting point is 00:14:12 Right. I was going through this really bad breakup like five years ago. That's when you get into shows, dude. Yeah, because you're like, dude, suck up my time. I don't want to think about this. Please fucking escape me. But it was really, like, my brother was really cool. And, like, we would just hang out a lot. And me and him just went on, like, a Friday night.
Starting point is 00:14:31 We were getting drinks at this bar in Mount Vernon. And we just started talking to the bartenders. They paid for our drinks. It was so nice. That's cool. And then, but we started talking to this dude. He ended up, he was telling us he was a cop. And he was on the force while the writer of
Starting point is 00:14:48 David Simon was, was, uh, doing, um, Treme. Yeah. Well, the writer, he would go on ride, you know, ride alongs, ride alongs with them to like get, uh, cause you, uh, you know, to like experience material and he was a journalist and stuff and like so it was just really cool like talking to this cop and like and like and uh and he was also he was a gay cop which like he said he had to like hide from all everyone it was just like so interesting which is a fucking straight up storyline from the wife because keema's gay and also
Starting point is 00:15:22 rawls i didn't know that rawls yeah remember, yeah. Remember the quick Rawls thing where you're like, oh, shit. That makes so much sense. Yeah. You know where they shot that scene? Where? Sidebar. Yeah. No shit.
Starting point is 00:15:31 Yeah. That's where they got the go back sticker. Yes. Yes. Go back and watch it. See what Rawls is like. Yo, that's Sidebar. Yo, also House of Cards.
Starting point is 00:15:39 Sidebar is the weirdest fucking bar in the world. House of Cards has shot a couple scenes in Sidebar. Oh, House of Cards. Golden West and Rocket to Venus. Oh, really? house of cards in the world house of cards has shot a couple scenes inside bar old west and uh rocket to venus oh really they just did gunther in uh canton i don't know if you've been there i've never been there i would shoot because here's the thing about baltimore is like it seems like it would be really really cheap to shoot there yeah and you can shoot so much different shit yeah i didn't know when i was in atlanta of years ago and fucking, or like two years ago, and fucking Fast and Furious was shooting there. What?
Starting point is 00:16:11 And I was like, what? Why are they shooting? But it took place in LA? Yeah. And I found out that like Georgia is. Yeah. That's where they shoot shit. Tons of people do shit in Atlanta.
Starting point is 00:16:21 Like Walking Dead is Atlanta. Yeah. All the adult swim stuff is in Atlanta. I think Georgia is like a stand-in for California because it's like North Carolina. And also New Mexico. Like when they do like super southern California, that's all New Mexico. In North Carolina, Dawson's Creek, all was shot there. I love it's devolved so fast. Actually, Clarissa explains it all.

Starting point is 00:16:49 That's what I got when I took a survey, internet survey. What 90s TV show are you? Like a BuzzFeed thing. You're Clarissa Explains It All? I was Clarissa Explains It All. Damn. How come? Why? What was the reason? Because I'm cool. are you like a buzz your clarissa explains it all was clarissa explains it all how come why

Starting point is 00:18:00 Three and four are terrible. Because the season before, I was like not into. I didn't even watch it, but I was fine with season five. Because I love Robin Wright. Three and four were so good. Oh, my gosh. She's so good in Wonder Woman. And so sexy, dude.
Starting point is 00:18:11 Hold on. I don't want to spoil anything. I don't want to spoil too much. Do you see her naked? She becomes president. Damn. You got to watch that shit. Well, you see that.

Starting point is 00:18:33 wrong literally a thought that i had during the movie was like fuck do i have to watch house of cards now and like i think i do i'm trying to i like season five dude what did you think of wonder woman let's break it down because i'm trying to see with my lady friend i fucking loved I think I do. You should. I like season five, dude. What did you think of Wonder Woman? Let's break it down because I'm trying to see with my lady friend. I fucking loved it. Also, I feel like if you get super high and watch, you have super good times. Yeah, I don't do super high, but I have super good times. Can I tell you my one beef?
Starting point is 00:18:57 What's your beef? She's a woman. How quick did you make those sandwiches, though? Too much wonder. Too much wonder. you make those sandwiches to wonder too much wonder too much honestly i can't handle so much one can we get a little more woman no hey guys this is like i'm not specific to wonder woman it's like specific to all i think superhero superhero movies if you're not gonna have a a trailer after the credits, let people know. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:25 Okay? Because people have to pee. Because people have to pee and people are hungry and they want to go home and get high. That is such a good point. If you are not going to show a trailer,
Starting point is 00:19:35 because here's what we did last night. I'm pumped. Here's what we did last night. What did you do? We sat there like a couple of dumb fucks. Damn. Lights have come up. Sat through the entire credits.
Starting point is 00:19:45 Yeah. Even the Asian crew as well. Do you know how many people there are in CGI? Probably a lot. Seven million people. They're all names you can't pronounce.
Starting point is 00:19:53 I had to sit through all these credits because I thought there was going to be a trailer coming up for the next fucking Justice League or some shit. Right.
Starting point is 00:20:01 Nothing. Yeah, you want Ben Affleck at the end to be like, hey, do you want to form a justice league stick around yeah and then here i am with my dick in my hand at the end of these and here's the problem here's a problem your girl just clapping all right they're completely they're completely humorless and they will never do that. And they will, like, never do that, and they should. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:20:28 God damn it. Yo, they should do a whole remake of Goodwill. Matt Damon should be Robin. Goodwill for hunting. He is Robin. And, yeah, Batman, Robin, and Goodwill for hunting would be amazing. Goodwill for hunting. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:44 What's it called? Goodwill for hunting. Oh, Goodwill for hunting. But the remake is called Goodwill for hunting. be amazing. Goodwill hunting. What's it called? Goodwill hunting. But the remake's called Goodwill for hunting. Like I got them now. How do you like them, Apple? Some shit like that. But they don't... They take themselves too seriously. Bruce is Robin Williams.
Starting point is 00:21:00 No, it's Ben Affleck, dude, because he's Batman. Oh, shit, shit. You're right. My bad. So he'd be like, every morning when I get to your door, I hope you're not there. Because you know what? You have a gift. A gift any of these guys would kill for. That's so funny. He pulls up.
Starting point is 00:21:17 Matt Damon is Robin. What do you want from me? What do you want from me? You want me to tell you the motherfucker put cigarettes out on my back? You want me to fucking tell you that the Joker put cigarettes out of my bag? Fuck you. Fuck you. You don't want that shit.
Starting point is 00:21:31 You don't want that shit. Wonder Woman. Diana. You don't want that shit, Diana. Yeah, Wonder Woman. It's not your fault. It's not your fault. It's not your fault.
Starting point is 00:21:43 Don't fuck with me. Don't fuck with me. Not you, Wonder Woman. Not you, Wonder Woman. It's not your fault. It's not your fault. It's not your fault. Don't fuck with me. Don't fuck with me. Not you, Wonder Woman. Not you, Wonder Woman. This is DC. I don't want that fucking Marvel shit. Not you. I don't fuck with me.
Starting point is 00:21:55 I don't want that Marvel pussy. I don't want Marvel pussy. You're not the Phoenix. You're not fucking Jean Grey. Don't fuck with me. Don't fuck with me. Don't fuck with me right now, man. You're not Jean Grey. You're not fucking Jean Grey. Don't fuck with me. Don't fuck with me. Don't fuck with me right now, man. You're not Jean Grey.
Starting point is 00:22:08 You're not. I mean, that's kind of like, that's what on a nerd level. Yeah. Because I didn't know anything about the Wonder Woman universe. Right. But it's kind of a better, I don't want to say better, but clearer. Goodwill Hunting. Kind of.
Starting point is 00:22:29 Kind of. Yeah. Jean Grey. Okay. So Jean Grey is Will Hunting is Wonder Woman. Yeah, yeah. Is what we're saying. Jean Grey from the Marvel Universe?
Starting point is 00:22:40 That's what I'm saying. Okay. Because I think that the Wonder Woman of DC was kind of a clearer representation of the Jean Grey Phoenix metaphor. The metaphor. Wait. Is Wonder Woman a Marvel or DC? DC. I can edit that out.
Starting point is 00:22:59 She's an alien who she's like a god and they don't tell her that she has all these powers that she has because they don't think that she can control these powers. Oh. And that's what Jean Cray is. Like, she has these powers that she's, like, freaked out about, and it's, like, a really, really great metaphor for, like, for women especially. But it's, like. Yeah, like, when they're going through.
Starting point is 00:23:21 But it's a clearer. This is why I love superhero movies when they're going through what? I was going to say when they first when they first went through taking it there my boys know me wet red time
Starting point is 00:23:38 that's what I call it Eric and I are doing that show for Baltimore socialists. Oh, yeah. I'll be out of town. Because here's the thing that people, nobody talks about this with periods. Let's let women on their periods are horny as fuck. Nobody talks about this.
Starting point is 00:24:00 Everyone talks about it. Really? There's a certain point when they're pregnant, too. It's like early on and third trimester, chicks get super horny. Or the last trimester. But I fucking love period sex, dude. I'll go down on you on your period.

Yeah, he was in Jaws 4, and it's notoriously bad. And somebody interviewed him.
Starting point is 00:29:08 They go, have you seen Jaws 4? He goes, no, I haven't. But I've seen the house it bought me, and it's quite nice. And that's great. That's like who gives a fuck. And you're fucking Michael Caine. You don't even know who the fuck you are. Simon Pegg said this, but if you say my cocaine,
Starting point is 00:29:23 but with a British accent, you say Michael Caine. That's in the trip. Yes, the trip. So good. You weren't supposed to blow the bloody doors off. Michael Caine talks like this. You know what I love? So we're podcasting on our way back from the show we did in Hagerstown, and we haven't mentioned it once.
Starting point is 00:29:42 How was the show? So much good. All shit happened. Hold on. it once. How was the show? So much shit happened. Umar, how was the show? I meant to bring this up a half hour ago when we were talking about The Wire. We were talking about how everybody knows Baltimore for The Wire. Do you know the band
Starting point is 00:29:55 The Stars? Yes. They're like an offshoot of Broken Social scene. So they're all like French. The other half became metric, right? They're like Swedish and French-Canadian. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, so they came down and we saw him in Baltimore, me and a friend. And they do a couple songs.
Starting point is 00:30:14 And then in between the third song, he's like, what's up, Baltimore? Like kind of in that French accent, which I'm not doing well. You did a pretty good job. Yeah, you did great, man. Oh, thank you. You could tell that he was kind of struggling with english he said it's good to be in baltimore we love the wire and like four or five people are like cool like because that's when it was on and nobody's really watching it and he goes
Starting point is 00:30:35 it was right around mother's day and he goes uh if uh if if if bode was still alive he would say he loves his mother but he didn't play it smart, did he? And everybody's like, what the fuck are you talking about? Spoiler alert, S.T.A.R.S.? Yeah, the dude from S.T.A.R.S. spoiled it. Bodhi died. There were two... Dude, that's so crazy that not a lot of people know about
Starting point is 00:30:58 that band. Yeah, he didn't even know English, and he was just like, it's a shame about Bodhi, isn't it? Wait, where did they play? You know what's funny? He spent all day learning how to say that sentence in English. That's so rich. And it's when the show was on and nobody watched him.
Starting point is 00:31:12 It's like, what? Oh, my God, dude. That's so good. But I got to give a shout out to my friend, Brendan. He's the one that told me about Stars. Stars is all right. Wait. I like my trick.
Starting point is 00:31:21 They had that one. They had one song that I was obsessed with for a very long time. The one where it's... It's like a back and forth. Between him and a girl. It's like something burn. Yeah. It's really, really good.
Starting point is 00:31:33 You know what has a lot of back and forths? Blink-182. Too much. Umar brings it to Blink-182. Too much. You know what's funny, though? That Blink song, I'm Feeling This, is hilarious because it's... I'm feeling it. it's about having sex.
Starting point is 00:31:46 So it's like one guy yelling all this shit he's doing with his girl, and then it's another guy just going, I'm feeling this. He's like, I want to take off for a close. He's just like a dude in a tree masturbating. I'm feeling this. This guy's like, yeah. Yeah. Woo. He's the guy when you watch porn. It's the guy with the camera. He's like, yeah, yeah, woo. He's the guy when you watch porn, it's the guy with the camera.

Starting point is 00:32:24 Yeah, he's a huge Hillary guy. And also, Tom DeLonge, when Kerry was running, this was before he was nominated the Democratic candidate. Tom DeLonge was campaigning for John Kerry from the very beginning. Are you serious? Yeah, Tom DeLonge was huge campaigning for John Kerry since the very beginning. That's so funny because he was the worst candidate. He was so bad. He was the worst. He was great. He was like, I'm an everyman.
Starting point is 00:32:51 Just ask my wife, the daughter of the Heinz legacy. Yeah, I know. It's ridiculous. I get so mad when I think about John Kerry. He's like, oh, you don't think I'm a normal, average Joe? Well, look at me windsurfing.

Starting point is 00:35:49 Yeah, you're mentally challenged, but you're really strong and good at football. This must have been done before with the black version of Good Will Hunting because he's a janitor at what school is it? Harvard. It's at MIT. Oh, MIT.

And she worked in a really rough school up the street from one of the schools that I work at. But I guess like the kids weren't listening to her. And she like flipped out. And she said something along the lines of like, you know, like, if you keep acting this way, you're going to end up just you're going to end up being another N-word shot or whatever. Yikes. And.
Starting point is 00:48:08 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. You know, the best part of that video is, like, the kids started laughing. Yeah. Because, like, black people have the best sense of humor. Yeah. Like, they're just laughing at this white woman. They also knew how busted she was, too. Oh, you're done.
Starting point is 00:48:20 For sure. But my favorite part was when I broke, everyone on like City Paper posted it. And City Paper is like garbage. It's like liberal piece of shit rag. Really? It's that bad? Most of the time. City Paper.
Starting point is 00:48:37 Honestly, if you write for City Paper and you're listening to it, like I hate you. Whoa. No, I'm kidding. I don't hate you, but i do think like your paper is garbage they're obnoxious they're obnoxious they're very pretentious and please city paper no and this is just umar khan not the digression sessions or eric or josh but just please no i'm on board just please no like only white people read your shit yeah don't act like you're well and they don't act like you're doing all of baltimore service only white people read your shit yeah don't act like you're well and they don't act like you're doing all of baltimore service only white people read your shit and like it's so cute you shit on our house
Starting point is 00:49:09 that's just white on white crime it's my problem is the cutest but they don't even pretend that they're like not just for white people no they just like they really do when the riots happen they oh yeah i don't know about that they had such a great opportunity like the baltimore sun they stepped up their shit. And I know people like their shit on the Sun. The Sun's great, I think. The Sun did a really good job reporting on the riots. City Paper was just a biased piece of shit.
Starting point is 00:49:35 And I'm a liberal. But they wrote shit that was clearly false. And when they were called out on it, they wrote the shittiest, snarkiest contraction when they should have just been like, yeah, sorry, we fucked up. We were wrong. We were very obviously pushing a narrative that wasn't true. Right. But they fucking were so snarky about it. And it was just like, dude, go fuck yourself.
Starting point is 00:49:55 And their restaurant reviews suck. Yeah, fuck them. They just go after, like, the trendiest shit. Honestly, shit up. Like, you go find some good food. I stopped talking. I, like, prevented myself from shitting on them just but you know what shit on my show i don't give a fuck they shit on gin and jokes no they they
Starting point is 00:50:10 were very friendly to us but that's why i stopped but i was like oh we don't need you fuck them yeah but anyway so to be fair to be i mean to be like most of like the equivalents of the city paper in major cities they all suck those like free like publications where you can like look in the back and you can like find an escort or like a wheat dealer or whatever it's like they all suck like like six years ago city paper wrote an article about comedy and they fucking like it was just all really fucking, like, they didn't talk about any of, like, actual really good comics from Baltimore. Like, Jason Weems, you know, or, like, Mike Stork. But it was just, like, focused on, like, a very small hipster bullshit.
Starting point is 00:50:58 Like Wham City. People who don't even fucking do comedy anymore. I fucking love Wham City. I think they're great. But it was just just i don't know it was frustrating just like the baltimore sun had an article recently and it's just like oh never mind what did the baltimore sun say nothing we have to edit that out too are you sure no i don't think so no no i think you're right like it's just annoying dude look i i it is and they
Starting point is 00:51:22 do that and like they They wrote an article. They mentioned, like, three shows. They didn't mention a bunch of other shows, one of which is my show, which has sold out 18 shows in a fucking row. It's such a good show. It's such a good show. That fucking article, that seems a little on purpose to me. But that's just, hey, that's my hot take.
Starting point is 00:51:44 Well, even if it's not on purpose to me but that's just hey that's my hot take well even if it's not on purpose i don't know like i think both things are like they don't really know or care about comedy enough you're like i found one thing that's baltimore comedy yeah that's my article like to them it's like you also think about it's like they're doing like i don't know art or something but it's their job they're like here's my 1500 words you know or 750 words and that is like that is why publications like that are really troublesome because like you can't encapsulate an entire city like you're trying to in fucking 140 pages right you don't know where the best fucking burger is because you're just focusing on like the newest trendiest burger it's 17 dollars
Starting point is 00:52:25 right it's like caramelized and it has gold flake on it or something yeah like you don't know that what about what about instead of yelp but an app that's just like doesn't suck that's what it's called like you go to a new spot like a new city and you're like what doesn't suck i think that's just google maps yeah you're right you're just like, that's what I've been doing. And I just like Google it and I just like try the fucking first thing that's like the closest thing. And it's like, it's not good. You keep on trying it and you find it. Yeah. And if you're walking around and you see a place, you can size it up pretty good.
Starting point is 00:53:01 Size it up so quick. Pop in. Ask for a menu. Walk away if you don't see anything. Yeah. It's a little awkward, but nothing, you know. That's what I wanted to do in New Orleans, and, like, everybody that I was with was like, no. We have to, like, go to this other place that is seven blocks away.
Starting point is 00:53:19 We have to go to Dead Jimmy's. An alligator runs it. Yeah, I was like, what about this place that's literally right in front of us? Like, no, that's trash, dude. It smells really good. No, no one goes there. Nobody goes there. Nobody goes there, man.
Starting point is 00:53:32 No, nobody. Okay. I think Baltimore is like that. I think that Baltimore is a food town of that vein where it's like it's not a food town like Dc or new york or lar or chicago it's like it's a more of a food town like new orleans and like elena and like yeah where you have to go and like really dig through it out yeah totally because but it's such a good food town what are your spots i don't know any of my spots but like, like, what, you know, I haven't been around for that long. But what I can, what I like so far about the food is, like, everybody sells food.
Starting point is 00:54:14 Most bars have food. Right, right. Which is, like, not. But, like, kind of like their own food. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, totally. They make their own food and it's, like, and, like, eating is kind of food, and eating is kind of a priority, which is kind of maybe just an East Coast thing.
Starting point is 00:54:27 Isn't that always traveling, though? I feel like every time you travel, eating is the priority for you as a traveler. But he's saying that the restaurants do that. I'm saying the city is like the city on its own. I feel like that's a new thing, though. You think so? It hasn't happened in the last – I mean, I didn't travel then, but I watched some cooking shows and stuff. it seems like you know so i know stuff
Starting point is 00:54:49 i've seen a vice land i've seen a vice land show whoa that's gonna weed in it yeah that's my that's my that's my impression that's my impression that's my impression of every vice land show that i've also i'm also in a vice land show yeah and that's my impression of every Viceland show that I've... I'm also in a Viceland show. Yeah. And that's my impression of every Viceland show. Well, that's a perfect impression. What if that's the station's catchphrase? Fuck!
Starting point is 00:55:12 Weed! There's weed in that? Yeah. Viceland. Oh, my God. That's a great shirt. If anybody from Viceland is listening to this, it's not true. I don't mean any of that and still give me a show.
Starting point is 00:55:23 Hey, if anyone from City Paper is listening to this, I know every fucking... Dude, you know what's funny? On the last podcast, Josh and I totally trashed a local coffee shop, and my buddy listened to it, and he was like, whew, you guys are burning some bridges, huh? Wait, really? Excuse me, what coffee shop? Huh? Common Ground.
Starting point is 00:55:42 Common Ground. Is that in Hamden? Yeah. Okay. I love it it but we just said they're a little slow yeah that's all it is that's all it is they're slow and they can do that because they have tons of people coming but for somebody that worked in a restaurant for like 10 plus years and good for you you guys are so fucking slow like if i hop back there i would be
Starting point is 00:55:59 the fucking god of common ground i swear to god i think that every time i kind of appreciate i kind of appreciate that sometimes god i feel that way too it's like i would just like fucking from a service restaurant yep i just lose my mind when it's like you know it's like no no you guys are fucking up clean up your shit pay attention let's go do you know what i hated common ground when i was talking to uh the one of the people a couple of the women behind the counter, and they're like, yeah, we don't watch Game of Thrones anymore because of the rape scene. I was like, what?
Starting point is 00:56:32 I was like, what? And I was like, you know it's like a fictional fucking, it's like make-believe. It's not like a real. Yeah. Umar, but still. I mean, that's fine. I don't think it's fine.
Starting point is 00:56:47 Rape is a fuck... It's so traumatic. Well, they're like, she didn't have to get raped. It's like, it's traumatic. Are they talking about the Cersei thing? Are they talking about the Cersei thing? When that chick got raped. The one... The girl. I'm forgetting her name. Red hair.
Starting point is 00:57:02 Sansa. Oh, see, I didn't... I never saw that one spoiler alert guys spoiler alert sansa gets raped but i i but then she finds john snow anyway yeah spoiler alert again and that's all right oh yeah he's not dead he dies he dies he dies but then he comes back he does yeah they bring him back to life he was a ghost the entire time he was a ghost the entire time uh but alert uh all right sorry okay spoiler wait so what's it what's your coffee spot in hamden common ground yeah it's a great spot it's a great cafe i love common ground i go there because i like the food that i love i like the coffee but yeah they're just so slow it's just two people yeah and the division of labor is all
Starting point is 00:57:45 fucked up yeah and i'm like yo get me back there you can't not not notice that i would crush so hard oh my god were you you got barista skills not barista but as far as food goes like yeah paper moon um yeah paper moon dude you gotta fucking hustle i did dude and i was and i was on cold side so the way that we're cold side Is all the way to the left And that's where like everything starts So if somebody's making a sandwich The meat's on the right side
Starting point is 00:58:11 But I'm on the left Oh, so you're back at house That's where the toast starts No, well, the thing is It's an open kitchen So I'm like, it's back at house But it's exposed Okay
Starting point is 00:58:19 But dude, yeah, it's like So you were cooking though Oh, fuck yeah I was cooking Dude, I was doing omelets I was doing sandwiches I was doing ques? Oh, fuck yeah. I was cooking. Dude, I was doing omelets. I was doing sandwiches. I was doing quesadillas at the same time. Literally and figuratively, Josh was cooking.
Starting point is 00:58:29 Oh, amen. Dude, that place hums. And it was like one of those things like with comedy when you get stuck hosting because you're like, oh, you're such a good host. Oh, yeah. I would have to work cold side all the time because you hold it down. It's like, oh, yeah. Move me to the hot side. I want to go to the hot.
Starting point is 00:58:43 Hey, speaking of hosting, no host tonight. Yeah, I know. It's all right. Shout out to Umar biting the bullet tonight. He went first. Dude, you took a bullet and a half. You took a Kurt Cobain tonight, dude. God damn.
Starting point is 00:58:54 We've managed to go an entire hour. But now we're going to catch up. You know what? I think this is one of my favorite podcasts. I think I just want to release the second half. So we did a show in a hall that looked, I forgot to say this on stage because I got too drunk because they gave us 10 drink tickets. And I went last and I drank every single one of them.
Starting point is 00:59:16 Yo, Eric went on stage and put his sunglasses on. I was so drunk. I stumbled. I thought, Eric, you almost literally fell at one point. I did. No, I didn't. You looked like you were going to fall. I'm just saying. I stumbled. You almost literally fell at one point. I did. No, I didn't. You looked like you were going to fall. I'm just saying.
Starting point is 00:59:28 You stumbled. It always looks like that. Okay. But no, I kind of did stumble. What I forgot to say as far as checking out the room was the room looked like a wedding broke out at an AA meeting. Yes. If you were at a meeting and like two
Starting point is 00:59:45 members were like you know what we're gonna actually this is our wedding and then and then like they got married yeah like that's what and let's get some comics who uh cannot connect with us at all god it was but it was so rough it was fun i had fun on stage, but everyone wanted to heckle. I think Umar had, at one point, six hecklers. You had six people talking to you. And no one wanted to give you a straight answer. No, because they're hecklers. I asked the guy a question.
Starting point is 01:00:18 I was like, hey, what's your name? His answer, Umar. It's like, okay. And then I asked, there was another question, Jackie, who was a gem, but even her would never give straight answers. It's just like, god damn it. And then it makes it hard to do
Starting point is 01:00:34 crowd work because, what, am I going to play off your shitty joke now? This woman who was in her 70s? 60s, 70s, yeah. On a cane. Had some type of debilitating thing going on. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:00:49 And that debilitating thing was her fucking mouth. Oh, my favorite part? You know, it was broken her fucking brain. She literally did not stop talking. She was the one heckler that maintained heckling throughout every single comedian. Jackie was the headliner.
Starting point is 01:01:06 Everybody, she heckled everybody, right? She heckled everyone, but was a sweetheart. She came up and us after the show said, God bless you to everyone, including me, even though I announced I was an atheist, and said thank you for your spirit. She was so thankful. She was, yeah. I think she was a genuine sweetheart who was like,
Starting point is 01:01:24 I don't know, just kind of like caught up in the moment probably gorgeous human being gorgeous but probably hadn't been to a comedy show before and ever think that's what yes comics want and also did not know how a joke doesn't doesn't right i think not only did she not ever go to a comedy show yes not familiar with humor. Yeah. So it was during my set where I said something and then like I heard her table laugh and I was like, oh, Jackie, what's going on? What are you guys laughing at? She's like, oh, I was just saying and she like repeated my joke. And I was like, yeah, that's the joke. It's OK.
Starting point is 01:01:57 Yeah. So like, like, you know, you say something facetious and she's like, oh, yeah. So it's because she's not real. And you're like, yeah, I know because she's not real and you're like yeah i know that's that's the bit and then later when eric goes up you're you're you're coming to the close of your set you have a crescendo to your closing bit and she just blurts out like oh well that's not that was my closer to and she goes like whatever i forget what you were saying when she's like well that's not the thing and're like, I know it's not the thing.
Starting point is 01:02:25 Well, no, she was like. I fucking know. I was like, let's talk about lunch. And she's like, how does lunch equate? Like, how are you going to tie this in? What are you going to do? And I was like, oh. Eric has his glasses on.
Starting point is 01:02:39 He goes, Jackie, you don't know how a fucking joke works. You've never heard a fucking joke. Oh, no, I missed that i missed that oh dude he was ripping into her and that's where i was like god damn eric's gonna lose it but he brought it home and he's like and you know what i'm gonna kiss you i'm gonna kiss you on your forehead but only if you consent to it because consent is important and i was like all right he's got it god and then i thought she had a wig on i felt so for a second Yeah you went to the crowd and went to kiss her Gets an applause break as he's kissing her
Starting point is 01:03:08 But as you're kissing her you were like Shit does she have a wig I brushed her bangs back and for a second I was like oh no Dude the crowd would go nuts No they'd be bummed They'd be super bummed You don't get it dude
Starting point is 01:03:23 You'd be so bummed She would be so poppy. She would be mortified. You take that and you put it on that fucking bald-headed, not Umar fucking. Oh, that'd be great. Okay, Umar just hates that guy. You're not thinking about Jackie. No, Jackie was so sweet. She, like, kissed us all on the cheek.
Starting point is 01:03:40 We took a picture with her. We took a picture with her. We'll tweet it out. But, yeah, it was there was like three but like umar had to deal with like oh my god the one guy who like the moorish thing i didn't even know what that was i mean maybe i'm just like my i don't know what that was like i mean there's like for comics like it was like this black guy who said he built Europe or his ancestors helped build Europe. And I was like, okay. Well, you said that he was black and he said that he wasn't black.
Starting point is 01:04:10 He goes, I'm not black. I'm Moorish. I'm Moorish. And you're like, what? Rightfully so. Because it's like, I've never. And then he got self-righteous on you. And he's like, well, you asked a question.
Starting point is 01:04:20 I'm just trying to educate you. It's not my fault. And you're like, whoa. I didn't ask you to say that. I didn't ask one goddamn. I just said just said look this black guy's laughing or something and uh because i was telling a joke about working with black kids and most of the audience was super white and you were just trying to engage people i was just trying to engage and it was like when you have to do 20 minutes and you're going up cold ice cold yeah god and the guy like who was super sweet was doing my intro
Starting point is 01:04:44 like just for completely like he was just sweet was doing my intro like just for completely like he was just nervous yeah he doesn't talk in front of people yeah and he was super sweet but he just forgot the intro and it just made it really hard that dude todd is like the fuck like his what a sweetheart he's the sweetest guy but he um seemed like he likes talking into a microphone as much as he likes stabbing himself in the fucking face yeah for sure after the show like took so long for him to say all that shit oh it was so cute dude there was like 25 people there the whole experience was really really and it looked like so cute wedding hall the way it was set up. And then, so the show wraps. Josh brings Eric off stage.
Starting point is 01:05:29 It is great. And then so then Todd. Thank you for that, by the way. Oh, dude. Well, because I talked to Todd because I was like, oh, fuck. We didn't work out how this is going to go. Because realistically, Todd should have taken you down. Yes.
Starting point is 01:05:40 Or I should have. I mean, I meant to say, like, be more closing. But you also, like, kind of didn't know, too, because there was no host. Normally the host would do it. So then I asked Todd, I was like, hey, do you want to take him down? That was my fault. I could have been more. I could have been more.
Starting point is 01:05:55 Because I meant to, like, thank Todd and thank Levi. It's all good, dude. I could have been more magnanimous. It was so fun. And then so, like fun Todd brings everyone up he comes up and says a few words it's for the Hagerstown Pride festival
Starting point is 01:06:12 weekend that's happening in a couple months or a month and so then he brings up two or three other people who were involved in putting the show together and it was just really nice but it took so long and there's only like 25 people there so yeah it kind of came off as sad wrapping up a show is hard enough he kept on bringing people up
Starting point is 01:06:32 well because he was nervous he's like i'm not too good at this um i love todd todd's so nice oh you didn't see this eric but todd this is how nice Todd is, the guy that runs the show. I was talking to him during your set because he was like, wow, he's doing great or something like that. We were talking about your set, and it was right when you were wrapping up, and you're like, all right, who's for spanking kids? And Todd didn't hear what you said, and he was like, sorry, one second. He started clapping just because he heard other people clapping. I was like, Todd, do you know what you're clapping for?'s like no i have no idea he was just trying to help out i was like god you're such a sweetheart they were so nice and he was like as soon as i got off stage he was like i'm so sorry for the crowd i was like

He's Todd. Okay. Oh, that was another thing. I asked Jackie if she's in a relationship.
Starting point is 01:07:51 And she couldn't give me a real answer. She's like, oh, I'm dating Todd and Umar. And I was like, all right. Yeah. Okay. And also, I guess that that table worked at a bank. It was an American Express call center. I was very close.
