There's one girl, Angel.

Shawn Michaels Heartbreak Kid shirt on.
Massive flannel.
Crazy hair and beard.
He looks like he walked out of a trailer park to do stand-up.
And then we were there the next night and he was wearing
a different Heartbreak Kid t-shirt.
Different wrestling shirt, yeah.
And I'm like, are you carving out the weirdest niche
in comedy history?
Props to you, man.
Yeah, he's the wrestling shirt guy.
But yeah, so we went to that thing.
And then I ended up having to sit next to my boss, who's really cool.
I like her a lot.
She has a really good sense of humor.
And then somehow, the whole table was just all women.
And Lisa, my boss, she was like, just to get the conversation going,

oh that's great like how long do you normally do? And I was like, about 20, 25 minutes.
And then when I do comedy, it's probably, I don't know, maybe around the same time.
So that got a laugh.
And she's like, no.
So we just kept going back and forth.
And then she was like, all right, no need to make it dirty.
And then somebody else was saying something.
And she was like, wow, you're really giving us the blow by blow and i was like lisa come on you just set me up here
so it's cool it's like fun to be because they're like oh it's the comedian and we could like fuck
around it's so inappropriate at my job yeah we sit around the lunch table and this one woman was
like they were i talked about this on stage a couple weeks ago, but I eat lunch with a group of black women I work with, and a lot of it's sex talk.
And they'll be like, hey, Miss Graves, are you a DW?
And they're like, what?
And I was like, what's a DW?
She's like, mm-hmm, sure am.
And I was like, what is a DW?
Apparently, DW is dick watcher.
And they just look at everyone's crotch wait they try to guess
how big their dick is but wait how does that work it's like uh you just like yeah like you know like
we walk around and look at women's bodies i think it's it's like um there's a certain amount of
points per dick like weight watchers like there's a point system so if you have a white dick that's
less points yeah and then they started talking
about people who have big bulges and don't and like i wear like the tightest pants out in the
whole school out of every one and i don't have a button i'm just like god damn it they're watching
your dick yeah they're like mr khan i don't know okay man you're like a one point dick
i snack on your dick all day i wouldn't gain an ounce yeah i understand yeah it was so
inappropriate hilarious w that's awesome though like i don't think uh white chicks would ever do
that like i watch dicks like it's so great to just have it all out in the open i had a go
worker i work at two schools this girl this human being this fine woman no not like she came to she's
her first year she comes to work late sometimes uh-huh and uh you know you shouldn't go to work
late but you know what happens i guess i think her for her happens a lot but usually like see um
i'm a school psychologist she's a speech pathologist.
And usually there's only one of us at a school, but sometimes there's two if the school's really big.
So at her school where there's two, she came in like 15 minutes late one day.
And then the other one, this girl's like 27.
She wrote an email to her, to the principal, assistant principal, and both of her supervisors down at Central Avenue
and CC'd the girl on it and just informing them that she was 15 minutes late to work.
Dang.
Who the fuck does that?
Wow.
Who cares?
I don't know.
Who cares that much?
Dude, it's...
You're an adult and you're ratting on people like that?
I would fucking kill somebody.
That is unbelievably insane.
Petty.
Super petty.
I can understand.
And her reasoning.
She's like, I just wanted to come.
I just wanted them to hear it from me.
They would have never heard it.
Also, what?
They're going to feel betrayed.
They're like, why didn't you come to us first?
It's like, shut the fuck up.
They want you to tattle on her.
They don't give a fuck. Nothing worse than fucking snitches. Especially at work. It's like shut the fuck up like you they want you to tattle on her they don't give a fuck nothing worse than fucking snitches especially at work it's like come on man yeah like
so i got here a few minutes late get the fuck out it's never happened to me thank god yeah yeah well
i mean that's because you're so imposing yeah man i'm like i fucking dare you to send that email
have you seen my dick is that what imposing means yeah okay well sort of yeah i guess um
yeah i never really i i had one chick where it was like yeah we used to have to write in on the
time sheet like manually like you have to like write it in pen and one day oh yeah i have to do
that actually yeah i was a little late and uh cindy came over and she was like so
i got in at this time and then i noticed you right and it's like hey man fuck off you know
like what the fuck like it's not like it was like three hours it's like did you change it
no god no fucking cindy dude dude cindy she's uh she's pretty particular, that Cindy. I remember, but when I first started, there was this chick, was it Corinne was her name?
Older woman, and her whole job was just like to track people's time, so she would collect all the sheets.
And she was like, I remember when I first started, I wrote like the exact time, so it was like 7.32.
And she called me, she's like the exact time. So it was like 7.32. And she called me.
She's like, can you come down to my cube?
And I was like, okay.
Oh, no.
So I go over there and she's like, she has like the old lady glasses like just hanging on like the end of her nose.
And she's like looking over me.
She's like, what is this?
And I was like, oh, it's just a time.
She's like, if it's not a zero or a five, I don't look at it.
So it's like you're either there at 730 or 735.
Like, no.
It's like, okay.
And then later.
And so I was like on her bad side.
And I was like, oh, man, I really don't want to piss her off because she's in charge of the time.
And then a few weeks later, she's like, come down to my queue.
It's like, down with my cue it's like oh my god and
then but this time she has like um those like uh those paper like ads that like used to come in
the mail of like coupons and shit like that like sprawled all over the place and she just looks
at me she's like should i get an ipad or a tablet we hadn't spoken about it before it's so funny

cut that one out that one no you got a rock for the dead dude i'll need an acoustic guitar session
i'm gonna need you to play uh's My Age Again at my funeral.
That's why I was invited.
Now, here to rock us, it's Umar Khan.
I remember when I was young, I would have dumb fantasies like,
man, if I die, I want Adam's song to be playing at my funeral.
You're like, I was 27 years old.
But then it means I killed myself.
And then if you think about it, like, just like, okay, someone would have to go press play.
And then a room full of silent, like, Pakistani people and older, like, friends are just listening to Adam's song quietly.
And that's how your mom finds out you spilled the apple juice in the hallway.
Yeah, and then someone forgets to turn it off and it quickly goes into the party song
uma i didn't know you spilled the apple juice in the hall why you no tell me
my mom called me the other day she was crying she uh she called me twice the night before and
i just ignored it because i was hanging out with k and she called me at like 6.40 in the morning
yesterday and was like,
I didn't sleep all night.
I've just been worried about you.
And I was like, what the fuck?
She's like, why do you say those things?
She's like, I was at the club.
Yeah.
I was getting bottle service
and damn, I was partying.
She's like, why do you say those things on Facebook?
I was like, what are you talking about?
Because I don't even remember saying anything crazy.
Usually she gets mad if I say i'm gonna kill myself and she'll
always call me yeah i mean that's a fair yeah i guess for a parent that's fair but she'll fucking
uh she called me because i made a 9-11 joke i said something like since it's been 17 or 16 years
since 9-11 i started saying the bomb again which is very in that but my mom doesn't know the saying the
bomb so she just i don't know what she thinks she just thinks i'm like a crazy person who's just
like fuck you united states government she's like you can't tell me what to do umar you can't build
bomb in basement yeah and she's like they will get you and i was like mom no they won't she's
like please don't say those things i was like mom i'm gonna say whatever i want i already told you
i'm gonna say whatever i want i think my mom is the number one person trying to censor me she's just worried about you she's
on the news right now have you seen what my son wrote they've taken my boy it's just all out of
context yeah she was praying he was praising 9-11 and he didn't mean to 9-11 is the bomb right right i did want to write after that to say like for example 9-11 is the
bomb but i was like that's too much yeah that's too much yeah yeah well i mean if you believe
in conspiracy theories that there were bombs in the building i saw today on the news the first
thing i saw when i opened the tv they uh the flor Florida man, like a hick. I guess he converted to Islam.
Shout out to Florida man.
Yeah, shout out to converted Islam Florida man.
He was kicked out of the military.
He didn't report his asthma.
And then I guess he was fucking wheezing
and he couldn't hack it in training.
So he was salty about that.
So his next logical move,
I think this guy just wanted to kill people
because he's like,
I guess I'm going to have to join ISIS now.
Damn.
Got to join ISIS now.
Just a redneck like, wow, I guess this is another way for me to kill.
Oh, I'm going to serve all right.
Yeah.
So, yeah.
So, like, I guess he was hired by ISIS to, like, he had all these guns and, uh he was gonna drive through some christmas thing and
kill people but they got him and but then they're interviewing like all his florida neighbors and
it's just like come on man don't do that just fuck you so sad come on man
it also it takes the uh the edge off of it too if he's like, death to America.
Yeah.
He has an asthma attack during
the terrorist attack.
And they're like, do we
administer CPR on you?
He's like, come on, man. Yeah, he just
looked like this super redneck dude who was so funny.
Yeah, I love that all the crazy stories always come
out of florida always so good you ever see the video that woman that got naked and just like
destroyed a mcdonald's yeah oh i feel that was a basalt thing i think so i feel bad for it like

blanket on everybody's having a tough morning i'm fucked up i'm like i used to sit in school
all the time i used to sit and take notes like this. Really? Yeah, because I was always sleepy, dude.
Yeah, as you say, you have to fall asleep though, right?
I know.
One time I remember I got yelled at for sleeping.
I was like so embarrassed because I was such a good kid.
Yeah.
And I'm like, oh, it was my first.
I was in community college, but I was a senior in high school.
Yeah, yeah.
So I did like that parallel enrollment program.
Yeah, I did that too.
The psych professor is such a ball buster he was like this very funny uh like big jewish man he was so funny
like his classes were the best and uh and i remember he showed a video and i just like i
would always run before the class and um and then i was always tired and then so i was just sitting
with my chin on the desk during a movie and my eyes closed and he came up behind me whispered he's like if you ever
fall asleep in my class again i will kick you out and i just felt so embarrassed i was so scared
damn i was like i don't want to get a bad grade damn we had uh there was a dude in 10th grade
no sorry it's a good podcast move real quick there's uh karen brought him a gift
from work and it's a mason jar with gloves in it and umar just asked if it was cake sometimes
people put cake in jars you ever see that no no i maybe they don't i mean maybe that i mean that
actually sounds like a shop that could open up right down the street from us.
Yeah, Jar Cakes.
Have you fucking got a Jar Cake, dude?
It's so good.
Just a bunch of... Isn't jar like a military thing?
Jarhead?
Jarhead.
Yeah, I forget what the jar...
A bunch of Jarheads fucking putting cake in...
Yeah, it's like how you rehabilitate, like coming back.
I used to stuff ammunition now i stuff cakes for america oh wait what you had a college story oh um i was with these fucking jar heads no it was uh it was 10th grade and uh yeah he would like
kick the desk of people that would like fall asleep yeah i'm like jesus christ a little intense and you're like these are children oh yeah we had teachers you know we had some fucking like
now that i think about it like so many teachers could get fired like a fucking teacher called me
stupid in front of the whole class dude she literally went because i was so bad at math like
to this day i can't do fractions and like well i, well, I mean, I can because I did.
I had to take remedial math class in college, and I crushed it.
And I was like, oh, I just didn't pay attention in high school.
You're like, math 032?
Yeah.
Smashed it.
I'm like, oh, 3 plus 3?
What's up, bitch?
Blah, blah.
Yeah.
No, but I had to take, like, pretty much the equivalent to, like,
algebra 2 and pre-calculus in college. Yeah. in order to be able to take higher level math classes.
And I got 100% in that class.
Nice.
And I was like, oh, yeah, you never tried.
I never read textbooks in high school.
I never studied.
Yeah.
I didn't do shit in high school.
No, I tried.
I tried real hard.
Really?
Well, also, my math teacher is one of my favorite teachers, so that made it more fun.
Damn, I fucking cheated my whole way through high school uh yeah i mean that was a part of it
too but hey well i mean once i made it to community like community colleges of i did yeah i did
algebra and then pre-calc and i think that's as far as i go yeah i had to take stats everyone
has to take stats if you're like a social science oh yeah that was like the best i didn't have to do
that just like not math it's like who gives a fuck we're gonna break down statistics on this podcast what stats
dude it's just looking at like human behavior uh through numbers but like it's just like really
easy calculation so like you know you whenever like anytime you look at a study with like this
group improve better into this medicine than this
group like right that's all like stat formulas yeah yeah like if you fuck up early it's gonna
fuck everything else up like yeah because you're building oh my god that's what i always heard
you're like oh dude my stats final yeah people made such a big deal it was like i think that's
the one thing it's just like, you just have to read your...
Literally read your textbook.
I read every textbook ever.
Yeah.
I tried it now and algebra was good.
We are just pieces of shit.
Totally.
Pre-calc was good.
It was weird.
There's a kid that sat in front of me.
One day he just wasn't there.
And then the professor, she came up.
She's like, some of you may have noticed that Brian's not here.
Oh, no.
He died in a car accident.
Died in a car accident over the weekend.
Okay, let's get started.
Oh, my God.
I thought you were going to go, just kidding.
He dropped out.
Oh, my God. are they allowed to do that
yeah she loosened her collar she's like he dropped out of this earth
high five someone in front row this class minus brian equal us because he's dead you know that
i've never had that happen uh my friends
our friends sasha and andrew they have this crazy story they went to school up in uh sasha grew up
in portland oregon and uh they went to like uh the school like her brother or sister was a couple
years ahead of her and like uh his class or like maybe while he was there, like the graduating seniors, they took a trip up to like this lodge in the mountains.
And they had the worst snowstorm out of nowhere.
And the whole class got stranded.
And like I think literally everyone died except for one or two people.
Oh, my God.
How?
They just got like stuck?
They couldn't get to them they
died of hunger and cold whoa wait where were they just in their cars or up in the mountains like
really like yeah in a lodge and no one could get to them and they fucking died whoa nuts did they
eat each other or try i don't think so i don't know i don't think so i don't know if i would
be able to do that i mean once your survival kicks in like like if there's if there's like 13 people and then two of them die man you're gonna try to
eat those yeah that's true people fuck that's what uh that um oh that yeah that soccer team
yeah yeah yeah and then it has to suck to like what have you just started digging in on somebody and the rescue crew
shows up like you literally take your first bite of human flesh you're like ah no we weren't doing
yeah you're just wiping blood off your god and who how would you decide who you eat you know
it's just like whoever's dead no but i mean like let's say you're the only one living you get to
pick oh yeah i would pick the healthiest person.
You think so?
I bet the fatty ones taste good.
Yeah, but I don't know what they ate.
You know what I mean?
Like, it's the difference between eating, like, free-ranged organic meat versus, like,
shady, just...
But we're also talking texture, too.
Somebody that's, like, super fit.
It's going to be, like, sinewy and tough.
You know?
Can you imagine breaking flesh with your mouth?
Ugh.
Ugh.
That's how I come, dude.
That's what I imagine.
Just blood all over your sheets.
That's how I like it.
That's how I like it.
Damn, dude.
How are you feeling after two Pedialyte pops?
Bad.
My stomach hurts.
I think I'm just more sick than I am hungover, I guess.
Yeah.
Because I did feel sick yeah
i've been drinking water i'll drink some more when i get up yeah pedialyte pops have been pretty
tight yeah it's like you know that was like my go-to thing when i was sick when i was young
ginger ginger ale with pedialyte yeah so yeah it was like drink flat ginger ale yeah also but it's
just like ridiculous because yeah because just consuming insane amounts of sugar,
which will just make you more tired because your glucose levels spike and you crash.
Yeah, and it's not good for your stomach either.
Dude, the advice like, God, my parents did something.
Well, I had it too where it was like eat saltines and flat ginger ale.
It's like, okay, ginger ale just like uh sometimes doesn't have caffeine but mostly mostly sugar like corn syrup and then saltines is just like just useless carbs doesn't have real
ginger in it no yeah a thousand percent and these are fucking doctors telling my mom this shit i'm
like yeah let him smoke camels yeah yeah well he like you makes he went to school for so long and this week all right you
know just some saltine yeah that is in medical school like as we all know with his tummy ache
yeah that's like a question on their final people like oh what are those crackers called
maltines no that's not it i dude i think i fucked my body up because like my parents every time
like we get a little bit sick
they would take us to the doctor and we would get antibiotics and they just they like would
used to hand them out like candy yeah and now like they fucking aren't going to be effective
in like 20 years because people wouldn't finish them either yeah well dude do you know how many
fucking bottles i've never finished because i didn't know that when i was young i was like oh
i'm better yeah even in college yeah remember it being like stress to me.
But yeah, there's definitely times when I'm like, no, I'm not taking the final three.
I feel fine.
Yeah.
And then you're like, oh, that's just how the now the germs are like becoming resistant
to it because you didn't fucking kill him all the way.
I was taking probiotics for a while, but I was like, I don't know, $60 a month for this
bullshit.
Oh, my God.
It's so well.
You were getting them at mom's.
They're so expensive.
I did a lot of research. Yeah. On them. And because because most of them are garbage like most of them don't do anything
right yeah i found i found the one a company that like has like all the legit good stuff and then i
asked my doctor friend and she was like i mean it won't hurt you but i don't know if there's enough
research to suggest that it'll help you unless you're taking like a big dose of antibiotics yeah that's the only thing i hear is when you're taking antibiotics
just to balance yeah but a lot of like health people like i take a probiotic every day and i
was like okay i'll do this and i was like this is too much money i think it's going to be one of
those fad things like in 10 years that everybody's gonna be like yeah remember when you're like
spending all like i also heard too when you're like you're juicing shit like a lot of the nutrients
are they're gone because you break up all the fibers yeah and also did you i forgot what podcast
and i told i used to tell my friends i think i would tell rahil this because he was juicing
he was getting to juicing or i can't remember who it was but juicing fruits is really bad because
uh you are breaking down all the fibers that the sugars are in yeah so i'm a double mint guy dude
huh juicy fruit terrible for you double mint right
i don't know i like that yellow oh i used to call it the yellow one when i was young i'm like mom
can you give me the yellow gum god my parent just going to the grocery store they would call robo
tussin robbie tussin robbie and i literally called it that until i dated this girl when i was like 22
and she's like what the fuck did you call it? I'm like, I don't know.
Robbie Tussin sounds like a rapper.
Yeah.
Yo, I'm on that Tussin.
Robbie Tussin.
I'm on that Tuss tip.
But what was I talking about? Robo Tussin is Robo Cop's brother
who became a doctor.
All right.
Eat some saltines. Eat some saltines
eat some saltines um uh sorry what were you saying oh yeah yeah uh juicing fruits yeah i
forgot what podcast it was probably ours it's very informational educational that's true i
think it was rogan and uh yo this comic who was trying to get in shape, because they were like, okay, you need to start eating healthy or you're going to be diabetic.
And so he just started juicing.
Oh, yeah.
And it made it way worse.
And he got diabetes from juicing.
But he was working out the whole time.
That was Dean Del Rey.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And just like, could you fucking imagine, dude?
You're working out. Excuse me. You're working out. dean del rey oh okay yeah yeah and just like could you fucking imagine dude you're doing like
you're working out excuse me you're working out and you fucking he's just drinking these juices
like man i'm being so healthy and you know the doctor like like all right i guess you didn't
listen to our advice you have type 2 diabetes yeah i've been working like i've been killing
myself like trying to stay in shape it was a six-pack you realize like how much sugar like is in everything
too and then like as a kid it's like have orange juice with your cereal they're like oh my god
those huggy hugs like in the barrel yeah my friends and i like four of us would
complete a box of those in a night yeah sleepover dude i had a um my our parents
literally go to jail for the shit they let us eat my dad had
um like a small vending machine thing for a while like business where he bought like i think like i
don't know we'll say like 10 little like half like vending machine things and then would like
put them in like little shops and then when he stopped doing it we just had him in our crawl
space yeah and i was like i'm gonna take one of these because he had a fridge of them like one for sodas and then one and then like took i
took all the stuff out of it so it's just like an empty fridge yeah put that shit in my closet
and then like my grandma would buy me literally like a case of like soda oh my grandpa was in
the navy so they could shop at the commissary on the naval base nice i remember that she'd buy me a fucking like case of like orange like soda and grape soda and then be like i also
got you a five pound bag of hot tamales so i'm just drinking soda water eating hot tamales and
like playing video games i'm like does life get better than that like dude like if my metabolism
wasn't good i would have been fat as fuck yeah Yeah, you're lucky, dude, because I used to eat like that, and I was fucking fat, dude.
It sucked.
I should have been so gross.
And Ryan used to eat like that, and he was always skating, that motherfucker.
Metabolism, dude.
Dude, I know.
He's so lucky.
Yeah.
Dude, that's unbelievable.
Yeah.
Well, it's funny when I watch people still eat that way.
Like, well, I don't want to out him, but a guest who did our podcast, he came over.
He ate two bags of Funyuns and had a big soda from 7-Eleven.
Yeah.
But I eat like shit like that, too.
I don't know.
I think you just have to you have to just balance it.
Plus, like, yeah, I just feel guilt.
Like, I have like I have like really bad body issues.
So, like, dude, I look in the mirror every day and Karen always has to be like, you're not fat. yeah like yeah i just feel guilt like i have like i have like really bad body issues so like dude i
look in the mirror every day and karen always has to be like you're not fat stop doing that
and i'm like hey this is like a morning ritual all right you dumb bitch if you can't handle me
pinching my belly fat and you don't deserve me not pinching it uh it's yeah it's nuts but so

progressive role reversal though good for you all right i like the woman being like you're not fat

you know and then she was just like you're not supposed to say that i think i overheard it you're like as long as you gain
weight in them titties it's fine yeah i did not say that but there's no good response to that
yeah it's uh like you know you want to if like if you think you gain weight and you want to
encourage someone to like i know you can't if it's especially as a woman well what you gotta do is you go uh let's get some gym

not good like my man dr drew says there's no free lunch in nature that's true but like you know what
the fuck what the fuck think about Think about before anyone gave a shit.
Like, president's moms are smoking and drinking whiskey.
You know what I mean?
They're fine.
That's why we got to make America great again.
I see where you're going with this.
Yeah, Trump eats burgers all day.
It is weird.
It's like, God.
The burger goes to Japan.
How are you not dead?
How are you not dead?
Also, like, you grew up rich.
Why don't you have good taste in food?
Like, motherfucker, you should be eating.
God, just like, God, I'd be crushing just really nice restaurants.
Literally, they did a side, like, when he went to Japan and he was sitting with the prime minister over there,
they're like, when Obama went to visit, like, you have access to the best food.
Like, Obama got sushi from that Jiro guy.
Oh, my God.
Literally, you come over, you can get the best stuff.
And then he basically got a recreation of McDonald's.
Yeah.
That's when Trump went.
Like a really common fast food joint.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I like to think that Jiro's a little bit racist while he's serving Obama.
He's talking shit.
I was like, man man black people love zushi jiro dreams of a pure
like damn jiro have you seen that documentary it's so good he's like sushi is what i dream of
but you are my nightmare he did like a pop-up thing in new york or something and my friends
went to it oh Oh, really?
It was like $400.
Man.
I don't know.
I couldn't pull that trigger.
Man.
Yeah.
Ooh, $400?
That's too much.
I know.
I think my threshold is $200.
Yeah. I would do $200 to splurge on the best sushi in the world.
Yeah.
There's also like that restaurant in Chicago that was featured on Chef's table where they do all the crazy designs top text oh can you see it
sorry what'd you say um uh jiro sushi something no there's that really nice restaurant in chicago
oh oh sorry chicago yeah like aletta or something that was featured on chef's table yeah yeah Jiro Sushi something. No, there's that really nice restaurant in Chicago. Oh, sorry.
Chicago, yeah.
Like Aletta or something that was featured on Chef's Table.
Yeah, yeah.
Bored a $600 meal.
I wish Karen was down here because she would know.
I'm blanking on the guys.
Yeah, but he's like, you know, he almost died and had throat cancer or whatever.
Tongue.
Tongue, yeah.
Which is, God, what a tale.
Yeah, I mean, yeah yeah to anybody that hasn't
watched chef's table like please fucking watch that shit god it's yeah yeah the story god i'm
blanking on the guy's name um yeah and karen tells me the name all the time like tongue cancer they
told him he couldn't live so yeah yeah it starts out like so chef's table it's like some of these
people you feel are so fucking like up their own ass and pretentious
and like this guy.
So they're kind of slow rolling and showing some of like the stuff that he does.
And literally he serves his food on a aroma pillow where it's like a plastic like pillow
case essentially that they like.
They fill with like.
Aroma.
Yeah, exactly.
Like basically like a fucking humidifier full of like herbs and stuff that they shoot they fill with like like yeah exactly like basically like a fucking humidifier
full of like herbs and stuff that they shoot in there and then they poke it with like tiny holes
and then they put the plate on there so when you press down on the plate a little bit of aroma
comes out and it's like because that's why uh uh smell is the uh link to memory so when you think
of this you're like oh my god it was so good and you're like you're like what the fuck is your fucking and then uh you find out later that he was he was a
chef at a restaurant and then he was working under people and then somebody gave him an opportunity
to open his own restaurant and he's all stressed out by it and he had a like a weird like little
white thing on his tongue and he thought it was from biting it and then eventually his partner's
like what's up with you can i see that and he had like a huge thing on his tongue and he thought it was from biting it and then eventually his partner's like what's up with you can i see that and he had like a huge thing on his tongue
and they're like you have to go to the you need to go to the dentist like right now so he went
and they're like no you need to see a specialist he did that and then he's the worst those copays
and he's like man i hate that you go to the doctor like uh you really gotta go see a specialist i'm like damn
i'm fucked up um but then they then they go okay you have stage four cancer oh my god and he didn't
even know and he thought that was good because he thought there were 10 stages yeah so he's like
okay that's not bad like no no we're gonna have to cut out your tongue. Most of your jaw. You're like, holy fucking shit.
I think I would die.
Oh, my fucking God.
Wow.
And then you're a chef trying to do that.
And then the story gets out in the paper.
And then luckily, like University of Chicago is like, hey, we have this radiation treatment you can do.
It's experimental.
And so he started doing that while he was opening a restaurant.
Lost all his taste and then still got a Michelin fucking star.
Amazing.
Not being able to taste his own food.
And you're like, you know what, dude?
You can have all the fucking aroma pillows and do all the pretentious shit.
You think there's some salty chefs?
They're like, man, he only got that because he almost died.
Kind of like that one comic got an HBO special because he almost died.
Yeah.
Who's still alive.
Who's still alive.
And I was talking to a booker of a place he performed recently yeah and uh he was like one he was terrible yeah he
said it was the worst comedy show that he's ever been to yeah and two he was like he never talked
about it and it was just like weird as shit because like that's you the whole thing everyone
knows you for is you almost die the public's frame of reference is that you are the dying
comedian yeah
so you can't be like man these clowns in congress huh you're like talk about how you're gonna die
yeah like tsa is crazy fuck you talk about death chef's table's funny though because like
a lot of the chef's table is like um the people are like, I had the best restaurant in the country and we were getting so much press and everyone loved it.
But I just wasn't happy.
Yeah.
Packed up.
I went to a poor country and learned how to cook their food.
And I came back and I made a lot more money.
I made a lot of money off of their culture and didn't really give them anything back.
And I didn't give them shit.
Yeah.
And then it shot in slow-mo and cool.
It's like, I took what they did, put that shit on smaller plates.
I'm fucking a businessman.
Motherfucker.
Yeah.
It's just so funny.
I mean, but like, yeah.
I don't think a lot of those people are like that, though.
No, obviously.
But there is a lot of that where they're like, I just wasn't happy.
And they had to travel away and shit. That one guy was dope the uh that new yorker guy that did ramen and then like went
to white jew and then went to japan yeah and he was like one of the top ramen people and he's a
white jewish man that was so cool yeah and i liked him too i could like he kind of had a little bit
of a comic vibe to him where it's like yeah he's a, yeah, he's a ball buster. He's a ball buster,
but it's also like confident and also insecure as shit at the same time.
So he's wrapping up.
He's like,
yeah,
I,
I went over there.
I didn't even know how I'm not a chef.
I went to Japan.
I loved ramen and I did it and I opened,
I opened the restaurant.
I got great reviews.
I opened up 20 franchises and it was great
so fuck you okay i fucking did it you think all right it's all right fuck you guys everyone's
like dude we like it we like it yeah you're fine i don't get how people get so deep and like i've
never gotten like you know like i knit or like i like baking but i've never found something where I'm just like, I'm going to make like, God, like you have to fucking devote so much energy into like not being a traditionally trained chef and then to being one of the best fucking ramen person in the world.
Crazy.
I'm just like barely able to knit scarves.
I'm like, hmm.
I can't wait till they have scarf table.
Dude.
Oh, I do want to start a knitting group.
You know, I think it would be fun.
All right.
Well, I have to poop really bad.
I have to lay down.
On that note.
I'm going to lay down.
