hello everybody hello back yes this time no guest yes and look at our look at our set isn't it cool i know right we got a plant yeah a table instead of being between two ferns we we have the plants between us right really switched it up here and what kind are they snake uh we got a snake and then sweetie guy what's this uh plant called she said the app somewhere else which i think is uh what is that a south american name it's a south american plant pretty sure yeah i think kids like that like our kids whatever they're gonna grow up like remember our parents always have all these dumb ass plants in the house like this is like such i mean my house has tons of oh yeah this is gonna be if you do like a movie about uh this time

period and they'll be like what was like the corniest look of the time like savage like shag carpeting green uh fixtures and stuff like that yeah yeah yeah what like what 90s i think 90s is probably the worst the 80s 90s might be the worst decade of furniture yeah and then also just the uh it's it's a golden pocos golden pocos somebody for those listening at home give it a. The 90s was rough because everything had to be like plushy, a lot of like just rounded stuff. Rounded and then also the colors. It's a lot of brown. Like brown.

Oh, 90s? I thought 70s was brown. I thought 90s was like more like you're like those pinks and turquoises. I think, yeah, like the pinks, but it's like those light pinks and turquoises i think yeah like the pinks but it's like those light pinks but then mixed it like interior decorating is like a lot of like kind of like the fake brown cabinetry exactly yeah yeah yeah dude like because you know you walk into like a parent's house you're like jesus christ or that's when we were looking for houses we'd look on zillow and be like it's nice but you can tell this house was the shit in the 90s yes like vinyl siding and stuff too and but yeah and then i always think like i'm like it's funny because

when you people walked into that house when it was like a new build they're like oh my god that's what i'm saying and then we walk into her like duh this sucks yeah but they're like no i used to put my beanie babies right here it was incredible incredible right here. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So what's going on, man? Hey, not much. You did your not triathlon. No. A bi-curious-a-thlon.

I did nothing. You did nothing? So I was supposed to do a triathlon. It was the second year in the row, but it's a sprint, meaning it's a shorter triathlon. And we do the relay, so three three of us and we each do one leg of the thing oh okay i got yeah so you were you were gonna do the swim last year yeah last year i did my buddy was gonna do the swim yeah i did the run my buddy did the bike but the swim got canceled last year because of the fog it was, you couldn't see like at all.

And it's like, that would be pretty funny though. Just a bunch of screams. Yeah. Like, oh, Jesus. And then this year, we had like all the hurricane rain. Yeah.

And the Saturday race was supposed to be the women's race. It got canceled. And then Sunday, so this is what sucks. So I trained, I mean, it's like a half a mile swim. It's not a big deal

real quick would you say out of all the people affected by hurricane ian in the country you're the most affected i well second um the women who couldn't race at all were their whole thing got canceled brave moment to say women number one third floridians but you know yeah and not even a close third honestly not even close a lot of them had to swim god you know what i mean you kind of wish you were in florida yeah i know if i was in florida i would have been able to swim racing some sharks yeah streets up do you see that there's like sharks like in people's backyards and shit yeah i didn't believe i don't know if i saw one and i'm like yeah but i mean i think that shit does happen though sure yeah uh anyway so yeah so then this is what sucked

is like saturday uh i wake up uh and i get a like a notification that the saturday thing is canceled and i was like oh sweet my shit will get canceled because honestly i was like well at this point it's gonna be so miserable outside yeah that i don't hold it's rainy yeah you know in the water get up or because you have to get up at like 5 a.m yeah and they're like so they said we're gonna call it but call it as late as possible because they didn't call the call off the women's until like 3 a.m and i was like that's nuts yeah also too yeah you go to bed you like, I don't know if I'm going to be doing a triathlon tomorrow. Yes. So, and also, like, you know, you've been training.

I was just, like, swimming all summer. Swimming. Also, like, you know, when the summer, like, now, like, indoor pools, blah, blah, blah. And then I was like, oh, I'm going to, like, kill this race. Yeah. Because no one cares about the swim part. So, I was like like i think i'll be one of the first people to finish the swim and is it like it's open water too so there's a current with it too yeah which is like a whole different well yeah and i didn't practice that and right i was like my buddy was like did you

get a wetsuit i was like huh i was like do i need a wetsuit and this is the week of yeah and he was like yeah dude it's gonna be like 65 degree water. And how far are you going in the water? How far into it? Like, I mean, like what's the distance total? Oh, half a mile. So it's 750 meters. So you'd be in the water for like 10 to 15, depending on how fast you go.

Some people probably half an hour, 40 minutes. Right, right, right. Yeah. In that freezing water. Freezing water. Yeah. And so I was like Googling and people are like, yeah, if it's like 69, you should wear a wetsuit. Like 69 outside.

Degrees in the water. They do a water temp. Because the water is always a little warmer than the air temperature. Okay. So I was like, fuck. And also, I don't want to spend money this is like not a big deal yeah oh yeah like how often are you going to use a website yeah and then so i was googling pictures of i was looking on picture on facebook of pictures from

last year's race and i was like trying to see i was like well some people aren't wearing like let me see what the women wore yeah actually some women just wore a bathing suit and then some dudes just wore like a speedo whatever jammer yeah because some people too yeah it's like for time or whatever they're used to swimming into transition to be low and i was like i think i can then i got then when the storm did you shave your body in preparation for resistance so then on friday you're like i did do that on friday i'm at war i was like i'll just go to rei on wednesday didn't make it yeah thursday i call iri like oh we don't carry them in the store you can order online i call dicks they're like we don't carry it in the store i was like shit so i just go to amazon yeah little mom and pop say what you want about

you know capitalism killing small businesses but at a certain point you're like well no other business can do what they do also too it's not like you're like well i tried the mom and pop it's like still rei a giant corporation you know what i mean like no i did try a local dude but this is what blows my mind about like all about supporting local, but at a certain point, it's so fucking ridiculous. Yeah. Where, like, so I wanted to buy goggles. Mm-hmm. So I was like, oh, I'll go to Princeton Sports.

I think that's, like, a local-owned thing. Mm-hmm. What do you think their cheapest pair of goggles were? $125? All right. Well, not that much, but $65. Okay. I only guessed high yeah because i said

it up but i was like 60 they should be like 25 bucks yeah and i was like fuck this i was like i walked into the guy was like and even i told the guy i was walking out because he showed me he was like oh what are you i was like what are you looking for i said goggles so he pointed me in the direction yeah and then i walked out he's like oh nothing worked out i was like dude your cheapest pair of 65 and even the guy working there was like oh my god he didn't even know he was like holy shit yeah you would think 20 yeah yeah but i ended up i you know what actually then i went to a local place in kainesville where i grew up getting my goggles oh nice there you go there you go i did support local everybody just had to go

home yeah yeah we got goggles i think mary got them on amazon but like they're weird because they kind of suction to your face that's what they're supposed to do yeah i had no idea like what is this because as a kid i always got like the cheap ones i was like yeah yeah these i was like god damn no those are the good ones yeah Yeah. But then if water gets in there somehow, man, that sucks. It's a bummer. Are you guys swimming? No, we shut down the pool next weekend. Oh, for this pool.

For this pool. I thought you were like training or something. Oh, no, no, no. I mean, Mary was doing it a good bit. I would try to do laps, but I wasn't like training. It was more so just get cardio. Yeah. My thing now is just jumping into the pool off the roof.

Nice. Oh, did you have you done? Did it done? Did it a couple times? How'd it go? It's very fun. Yeah, it's very fun. Are you scared that you're going to like break your roof?

Yeah, I'm more scared that I'm going to just shatter my ankle and you're going to be that guy and never walk again. And there's like what happened car accident and, you know, thinking it's something unavoidable like well i'm sure you had to drive to work i'm like no i jumped off my roof and landed on the sidewalk i told that norman story right where like he almost yeah he was gonna do it yeah i was thinking about that too just every and also too i was like okay mary can you record it too so she would have it like recorded i was like oh god oh that would be great but hey that's content baby talk about a viral vid um but yeah it's been it's been very fun but yeah we close it down on the ninth but i i didn't grow up with

a pool so i don't know what that means when you close it like i don't know if we drain it or you keep the water in there i don't know i don't know you gotta ask oh we're gonna find out you can i think don't you pay someone to come take yes they're gonna do it but they just haven't told us yet so like they're like they winterize everything so they make sure all like the pipes are clear water so they don't crack and everything like that and they'll put the cover on and clean everything they drain the pool yeah we'll see you also don't yeah because water expands when it freezes i don't think that's good yeah so if they drain the pool yeah we'll see you also don't yeah because water expands when it freezes i don't think that's good yeah so if they drain it that's fine we had to fill it up

and we just filled it up this past summer after they did all the work because they had to drain it to do everything and then we filled it up with the garden hose it took four fucking days to fill it up how much was your water bill this is blow your mind. Our water bill is for three months in the county. You don't do it every month, so it's three months. Oh, and it's way cheaper, right? Yeah, just guess. But this will be my version of goggles. This is where you filled up the pool for 48?

It includes that as well and two prior months. $1,200? Sweet, sweet Omar. It was $113. Oh, my God. 1200 sweet sweet umar it was 113 oh my god if you did that in the city bro my in this city oh yes i that's what i was bracing for i was like all right it's gonna be 1500 probably 2000 because when i was living in my house every month it was like between 80 and 90 dollars like if i took a bath to be like all right it was 95 this crazy but yeah in the city it's insane i pay like yeah i pay like 90 every month for water 70 to 90 yeah and then this one i was like well we weren't here for too much like a month before that i don't know

what they're doing with the water we literally had the hose running all day all night from monday to like no maybe it's like tuesday Friday. God damn, that's insane. I was like, this has to be what? 60,000 gallons of water? Yeah, I was like, what is this bill going to be? How many? God, you could have like hydrated a whole village in Africa for days. For sure.

For a month. And if they want to come over and swim, they're welcome to. We're shutting down the pool on the 9th, so get over here quick. That's a fun thing. I remember when you were young and your parents would, if you didn't finish your meal. They'd say, there's starving kids in Africa. Yeah, but then you grow older and you're like,

why did our parents have to go all the way to Africa? There's starving kids like three houses down. Three houses down. Like, yeah, if you live near any major city in America, there's starving people everywhere. Everywhere. It's like put in a Tupperware and take it to that mom. If you give a shit so much, it's insane.

Just the 10 year old Umar. Yeah, he's like you fucking take it there. Then I'm also like, yeah, I don yeah, I think if you gave starving kids food, I don't think they would just eat until they're full. Yeah. I'm just eating until I'm full, you fucking idiot. That's like another crazy thing. It's the same principle.

Yeah. Where parents never believed kids were full. Yeah. It's like, bitch, I don't fucking. I remember being at a friend's house and mom would make me drink milk and i was like bitch i don't like milk yeah and she just was like no you need it's good and also now it's her guess what it's not good for you it's just sugar i had no idea sugar was added to it oh i didn't know that either it is yeah to make it taste good yeah and that's why and then you

get addicted to the sugar add the calcium to it yeah it's all it's so fucking weird but yeah that i was that kid uh yeah you had to drink milk with dinner yeah water or milk and i was like oh milk but i remember coming home and like craving milk like being out that blows my mind i would like come home and i was just like i would just drink it straight from the thing i'm like yeah But it was just my body being addicted to sugar. The first time I was at, I went to visit, have a meal with Karen's extended family. They live in-

Georgia, yeah. No, no, no. They live in- Oh, that's her parents. They live in Moncton or something. Oh, yeah, yeah. Her extended family, like aunts, uncles.

And we were just having like, I don't know what it was. It was like Easter or something, like lunch, brunch. And we're eating like, I don't know, just like macaroni salad and like burgers, dogs. Yeah, like cookout stuff. Cookout stuff. And her cousin was like, do you want a glass of milk and i was like huh i thought she was joking and i was like i'll have like a beer or something and she was like she's like no seriously do you want milk and her they all drank they all drink

milk when they eat meals even still like any meal yeah i'm like this is like even cookouts yeah dude we were at their house this past um like saint patty's day or whatever yeah milk oh dude uh it's yeah it was everywhere in the 90s too though the god milk thing was huge as soon as i saw stone cold steve austin with it i was like well yeah he's pretty fucking cool. That's great. I mean, yeah, I just never cared for milk. Yeah. And then once I learned, I was like that it's not that good for you. Also, these pieces of shit. Yeah.

Well, I mean, so your parents weren't pressing you on it. Never. So exactly. So my mom was like, well, it's good for you. And like, yeah, healthy thing. And it turns out it's just fucking shit. Orange juice. Just fucking sure. Dude, so the idea breakfast food was just the idea of drinking a glass of

orange like mimosas blow my mind that anyone would drink that yeah because not only are you drinking the sugar in the champagne like in the champagne yeah but now you're at so you're just adding sugar to sugar yeah and then downing it that must be the worst hangover like oh any sugar bottomless too yeah that's why yeah like cocktails and stuff like i i can't do a bunch of those like just because it's like oh this is really good but it's a ton of sugar unless you ask for no sugar yeah an old-fashioned it's like a whole fucking cube of sugar nights where i'm drinking like four old fashions in a night yeah and you think it's a healthier drink than like beer right right you're like oh yeah yeah and apparently old fashions also old fashions are just whiskey uh simple syrup or uh sugar yeah and bitters and

that's it uh-huh and apparently orange rind it was during the prohibition because when everyone was making like shitty whiskey they put sugar in it to make it taste better gotcha gotcha and i don't know that's true but a bartender with tattoos uh and like a really cool leather apron told me that and i believed it hold on bartenders have tattoos yeah i know man it's nuts all right next you're gonna tell me chefs have tattoos are you serious are you serious you remember in like 90s tv i remember like all bartenders just like old just old people just like old scruffy and now they're like or even like the hippest people you'll ever see in your life. The lady that cut my hair as a kid, like, I mean, looking back, I was like, she's old, but she was just like probably like a 32-year-old mom.

Yeah. Just like a normal looking lady. Oh, and now, dude, yeah, for some reason, chefs, bartenders, and barbers all have this like, they're all like super tatted up yeah and they just are like the hippest yeah people you'll ever it's great it's a it's a weird yeah i guess you're just like around it i don't know yeah yeah it became a thing yeah especially for chefs it seems like too to be tatted up i don't know where that started but they're all like kind of seen as hardcore i think bourdain did it probably yeah you got a few tats looking cool i mean i just got a tattoo recently so what can i say i'm one of those cool guys how long did it

take um four days but it like didn't even care i was just doing my thing bro no uh it took i think it took a little under two hours. Oh, that's not bad. Yeah, so he did all the line work, and that's what you do before college. I don't know. He doesn't have tattoos. I don't know.

You got to go on that... Who had that tattoo show? Oh, like Kat Von D's tattoo show. Oh, yeah, but then didn't the dude from Jane... Oh, is it Inked? Didn't the dude from Jane's Addiction oh is it inked didn't the dude from like jane's addiction have a tattoo show yeah yeah yeah ink master master what's that guy's dave navarro right yeah yeah yeah that kind of fits with his evolution for sure of like dated

what's that chick's uh oh carmen electra yeah well red hot Chili Peppers Or Jane's Addiction first Jane's Addiction first Jane's Addiction Red Hot Chili Peppers Carmen Electra Reality show Tattoos Oh yeah And if you haven't seen

His MTV Cribs I was just about to say God It's incredible It's a really good lesson In how to be grounded It was like The picture from

I think it's like I think I'm blanking be grounded what it was like um the picture from uh uh i think it's like the i think i'm blank but i think it's like from like the like communist takeover i think of china and it's that picture it's like an iconic photograph of like a gun to to like to a guy's head and i think he might be pulling the trigger in the picture and the guy's face is all like he's he knows he's about to die yeah like he's like bracing for it and terrified at the same time but then it's like the size of like this wall dave navarro has that printed out and it's just it's like in his kitchen or like dining room or something yeah i come out here every day and you know i see this and it kind of like reminds me to

like have gratitude for what i have you know crazy crazy that a guy who a millionaire rock star yeah needs to look at a picture of a dude fighting for freedom in his country. Literally just to exist. To exist. Getting murdered to be like, you know what? I have it pretty goddamn good. He's like about to complain about his nipple tattoos. Yeah. Or nipple piercing. He's like, wait a minute. It's all fine.

Another nipple. Guys with nipple piercings is another big. Yeesh. Even when chicks had that, I was like, God, that would hurt so bad. Oh, yeah, yeah. So much that tongue piercings, too, were really big for a while. Belly button was huge. Yeah.

I had a friend. I think... Was it Jason? I think he got his lip pierced at the HF Festival, but I think they actually caught a piece of his lip on it and it got infected. Yeah. Really. That's not good.

Really gnarly. But yeah, getting a tattoo was fun yeah yeah it was it was cool it was like it was uh i mean listen i don't know if anybody out there has tattoos but they're cool it was fun it was uh but they're expensive too yeah i had water yeah oh yeah which i feel like that's not gonna be a thing any soon tattoos we're gonna be paying a shit ton for water soon oh me no all oh all of us the whole world yeah yeah why is the what's going on i think it's like going away interesting yeah since what yeah i'm just filling my pool up i'm like what yeah what i wonder if there's like a i'm sure a hack comedian does a joke about how like, how are sea levels rising and we have less water? Something doesn't make sense.

These liberals are idiots. Same thing with like- Right wing Seinfeld? Yeah. Right wing Seinfeld. Build a wall. We need it. You have walls in your house.

You don't want walls outside the house. Walls. Yeah. They work. you have walls in your house you don't want walls outside the house walls yeah um uh i because a lot of people complained that uh you know california wants to go by like 2030 they want to go all electric cars i think or that's a country that might be a federal i think it's no i think it's that's happening yeah like all of the big manufacturers are gonna do that yeah like every new car is all these conservatives and also i think a lot of comics you know with who do like

hot takes on podcasts said uh well you know uh that's still using um energy energy blah blah but it's like yeah but using electricity is a cleaner energy than using um like a liquid uh you know um using using electricity is cleaner than like you using oil gas right to like heat your home to run your car yeah because it not putting extra like shit in the air right right um And it's just so funny. Like people are just like, you don't just, you don't even take a second to like learn before you say something. It's insane. And then now you have millions of people on the internet

being like, oh, where do they think the energy for the cars are going to come from? Like, yeah, we're not saying it's perfect, but it's a lot better yeah yeah it's it's yeah versus what it's going against better but then uh i was listening to like this scientist he was uh this is like his job to figure out how to transition the united states oh interesting yeah and uh i've been wondering about that too i'm like so what a gas station

so do you know what it's gonna take become like to rely on solar and wind? We're going to have like a lot of true grit. We're going to have like wind farms the size of like Montana. Don't we got room for it, though? We I think we do. Like, could you put one in Texas and it could power like Maryland, though? You know what I mean? Like where there's a space.

But I think the idea of taking and also you have to put these in very strategic places right the coasts and stuff yeah no what state is going to be like yeah sure let's just give up all of our tourism but they're going to pay you though so like in alaska they have all that oil drilling and it like ruins everything but every citizen of alaska gets two thousand dollars every year by the oil company so they're like all right you can drill two thousand it might not even be it might be a thousand i asked for way more i don't even know how much so the thing that you're talking about you're like what idiot on a podcast just said i'm like yeah what did us we do that we do we're number one but yeah they i don't know if it's a monthly stipend or whatever it is maybe they get two

thousand a month there i don't know what it is a monthly stipend or whatever it is. Maybe they get $2,000 a month. I don't know what it is, but I know you get a stipend for that. Okay. All right. So they might be like, I don't know. Hey, Boston, make some room or somewhere in Massachusetts. Yeah. Yeah.

These are going to be fucking ugly, but you get, I don't know, some type of tax rebate or something. Oh, okay. I don't know. Probably is what they're going to do. Yeah. Listen, they put a giant top golf thing in Baltimore downtown. That's ugly as fuck. It looks

so stupid, but and I don't think anyone's going to go to it. Really? I mean, it's in a tough. It's in a weird spot. Top golf is going to appeal to people who don't want to come to the city. I guess they're like, we'll put it right on the edge, though it's like the stadium. Yeah, it's by the stadium yeah it's by the stadium it's by the horseshoe like casino yeah it's the first one

where you shoot it into the water i think was that part of the deal baltimore is like just hit it right in the fucking harbor who we don't gives a shit what's it gonna do hit a body who cares fucking hit it out there oh my god yeah i didn't know that they're like fuck the net who cares fucking hit it out there oh my god yeah i didn't know that they're like fuck the net who cares yeah i think it goes into the wall i could be wrong right i'm pretty sure it goes into the wall i think it goes into the water i think we just keep saying stuff yeah this is a podcast this is a podcast you don't come here for facts men that's right men just fucking saying whatever yapping that's right that's right somebody uh was at a farmer's market and some chick i don't know somebody's like oh who more has a podcast

blah blah blah and then i ran into her a couple weeks later she's like yeah listen to your podcast just dudes talking and i'm like i mean yeah yeah what else yeah that's what else is it yeah i don't know listen you don't have to listen yeah what do you want us to talk about murder yeah murder and sex because we will we're murdering the sex wall dude have you what dommer yeah yeah it's good it's insane it's so intense i had to take a break yeah it's it's pretty brutal we like because yeah we would break it up and then one night i think we just watched like the last three because i kind of wanted to get it over with but i do think it's done really well like it's great i walked that line of like true crime stuff of being interesting but then exploitative at the same time

so it's sort of like you know like i don't go like the people that are like i love murder you know it's like yeah you don't say it like that's a horrible thing to say crazy i mean well weird to make that your personality yeah but people are making millions yeah yeah i think they regret naming their podcast that though have they said that yeah yeah because mary mary listens and they're like their whole thing now is like they talk a lot about more about the victims less so like i think when they started it it was like this of like oh let's talk about like we like true crime and it got huge and then it got huge and you're like ah fuck uh sorry like you didn't know they didn't know they were gonna become millionaires

and being like my favorite murder you know but i'm like i understand the intent yeah uh i don't care i'm sure they're not the one but their fans are probably the ones who hate yeah like certain comics right and it's like well there's definitely probably overlap there yeah yeah where it's like if it's like but you can be like i just love uh the btk killer or whatever he's my favorite it's amazing it's like and i can't publicly say i like louis ck that's insane all right yeah let's cut that i'm gonna edit that out my favorite murderer louis ck um oh yeah but dommer yeah i i had heard um I knew certain stuff like that he had a dude get away and then the cops brought him back. I knew that, yeah.

I knew that and that, yeah, he was like drilling into fucking people's brains and making zombies and shit. What I didn't know is, spoiler also. How attractive he was yes no uh what i didn't know is that this person this dude is just killing people in a apartment building how the fuck does that happen and his fucking grandma's house too like just being like come on back it's fun oh yeah all the bodies in there like it had to i mean i'm sure it didn't just stink in his house like if like smelling it in the house you know what i mean like i'm sure that smelled like john wayne gacy got caught because he was burying bodies underneath his house and everybody in the neighborhood was like what the

fuck is up with your house dude oh could they smell it yeah i thought they could i thought like no they could people complain but he would like say it's like an animal died down there and stuff like that like they found a ton of bodies under john wayne gacy underneath his house you know i remember they found like 30 or something insane but yeah yeah and then i don't know yeah you just live in an apartment it's just like oh that's the weird neighbor whose apartment smells crazy dude i mean just crazy look i know cell phones and whatever ruining our lives yeah it probably is what stops like serial murders from existing yeah like if his neighbor's daughter who i think called the cops when like the 14 year old guy like escaped like if she had that on video yeah live on instagram like there's no way the cops are

also there's also no way like dude this guy i mean dude how do you um okay so like they see this person this kid that he ends up murdering like he runs out people call the cops cops come dom or lie says that's my boyfriend. Yeah. But then that kid goes missing. True. So what did you see? Like a missing poster or something? But that's what I'm saying.

It would be all online. They do a good job of that in the show. But also real quick, Dahmer, it doesn't humanize him, but it just shows like, okay, how do we get here? It's like if he maybe would have gone left when he went right or if he had maybe therapy as a kid and maybe was on prozac and he's a raging alcoholic since he was like 15 or something too it's like if he was sober it's like would he have ended up killing people probably not and then like his uh parents were insane but and then like the gay thing was never it seemed seemingly embraced by his family but he really figured out how to weaponize that though

because anytime the cops came around they're like what the hell's going on he's like bunch of gay stuff they're like ew he's like i know yeah one of those pictures just some gay stuff yeah they're like ew gross he's like right all right i'll see you later but like yeah and then also too like i think uh yeah when did he uh like they didn't even run anything on on him when they caught him too because at that time he'd already gone to prison for like a year for molesting that dude's brother uh like it's yeah crazy then he got arrested what's him saying he got uh at the park or at the fair yeah his dick is just out and he's jerking off he was like what i was peeing yeah did you see that joe para had to say he was like i've never killed anybody because

he sounds exactly like joe para do you know know that guy? No. He's a comedian. He has a, it's like Joe Pera talks to you and he's like, hey, how are you? How are you doing? Oh, that's awesome. He sounds exactly like Dahmer. Damn. I mean, yeah, that show is like, that first episode, holy shit. Yeah.

And then also too, yeah, if something was around like Instagram or something like that goes, a picture of him goes up be like this guy drugged me you know like don't trust him that's yeah exactly this guy drugged me this person's missing oh that guy was the one who came out of this guy's apartment it was weird he was all fucked up yeah there's no way yeah that's the like you know you're, all right. But I've got to be honest, I'd rather have serial murderers than social media, probably. That's the tradeoff. Yeah. Like, if, yeah, let's just get rid of phones.

I would rather have no cell, like, smartphone. Yeah. And serial killers exist. You're like, listen, we're going to lose about 17 boys in Milwaukee. Yeah. And serial killers exist. You're like, listen, we're going to lose about 17 boys in Milwaukee. Yeah. But I think our mental health overall, pretty good. And then another thing. Then we go back to stipends.

We give those families a little cash. Yeah. When you watch that show and you're thinking like, oh, he just meets this dude in a bar and they go to this bathhouse. Yeah. No one knows. Yeah. But today, some people would know where you are

yeah and it's much easier to get somebody's picture too yeah and then like have it up somewhere but yeah idea of like back in the day like just going somewhere and maybe one or two people knew right where you are is crazy now yeah and then it's like oh if you're not home i can't get a hold of you yes that's about it's crazy so but like man whoo so then i'm like are they smart or is just like you know all these serial killers like are they actually because like damer was like he's pretty brazen brazen but that's and then that also shows the failings of what was going on with the justice system like even that judge killing people that no one that's and then that also shows the failings of what was going on with the justice system like even that judge killing people that no one cares about and then the judge is like hey

you kind of seem like a good kid yeah i'm gonna give you i think you can write the ship and it's like well he fucking molested he kidnapped and drugged and molested this kid he's like ah boys yeah he got pulled over he was drunk and the cops like turner bodies in his car one of karen's friends you know he's yeah like uh 45 yeah that happened to him and his friends all not all the time but uh it's happened to them where like they got pulled over drunk driving the cops like all right i'll just follow you home. Great. Could you imagine one of that happening to a two? I'm doing that to a black person. Yeah.

Oh, yeah. Like, don't worry about it. We got you. Yeah, we got you, dude. Like, out of the car. Hands where we could see them. That was a fun night because we're all like, I remember we got no heated. This was when this was like during all the like 2020 uprising george floyd just had

happened it's like it's all on who's george floyd yeah i mean it just ends the podcast yeah who uh um so i remember we got in this heated discussion about because i think the mom let's not clip this but uh sure the mom was talking i guess to her kids about like white privilege oh what and what race is she she's asian okay okay husband's white okay and and look he's not a bad guy he's a great guy but you know he leans a little to the right got it and he was like fuck man there's no such thing as white privilege bullshit blah blah blah and i don't argue i'm just like okay yeah and uh and then like i don't know 45 minutes later he drops that gem about how back in the day cops would let him and his friend just get away with right right right right right i'm like did you say anything no dude i'm not stirring that pot

but that's also like yeah it's like those are the same people where it happens to them or they're just like i ain't never catch no breaks in life and it's like right yeah that's a huge break the huge that's crazy yeah yeah it's like when people are just like what i'm white i still have to work every day it's like yeah but it's the stuff like that it's like it's but it's at a point where it's like it's just not worth i don't argue with anyone anymore interesting pretty much yeah pretty much like i'll do it for fun with like friends like alex or somebody yeah but you're like i'm not changing but i'm not talking to a stranger about anything yeah yeah fair yeah especially yeah if it's in like a setting like that too where it's like not like a party but

it's like a small gathering yeah like so what am i gonna do just debate this guy for like an hour and not change his mind i was at a party with the vibe i was at like this dinner party octoberfest thing on saturday with one of the dudes who uh was running in the um triathlon and uh me my buddy darnell karen like like darnell was like the guy who i was like i was like all right cool like if you're going i'll go because i don't really know anybody else. Right, right. You got to have that one anchor. You got to have the anchor. Yeah. And he's so – I don't know how we came up.

Somebody brought up the Shang Wang special, and I was like, oh, it was great, blah, blah. Then somehow Chappelle came up. Yeah. And the crowd is like his wife, the guy who's throwing the party. She's like theater background, nerdy very nice but you know another fucking right wing i know right so one of the friends like uh somehow chapelle came up and the guy one guy was like oh chapelle and then darnell he's a black guy yeah oh he's also he's a gay black man so it's a very interesting a real domer special yeah that's yeah i remember what he told me he's like i can't watch domer and i was like is it

because yeah i don't know but anyway his husband's watching he's white uh which is a fun thing that yeah like your white husband is watching i don don't know. It's just hilarious. And then your gay black husband's like, I'm going to chill on this one. Yeah. Also, too, if you're Darnell, you're like, don't watch it too much. Yeah. Don't let me catch you saying it's good. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Don't let me say it's interesting. Oh, man. That would be a fun Halloween costume. God. Oh, my God. We're're like we hate people that exploit people on podcasts you're like but a fun that'd be a good bet that's a pretty good bet oh my god um all right i'm gonna text him that he'll love that um wait what the hell oh so then chapelle comes up and darnell is a guy who like he will argue

gotcha and uh you know he's a lawyer blah blah blah oh so he's yeah and he was like what's wrong with chapelle and i was like darnell what the fuck are you doing just let it go oh the door the door is wide open now yeah what yeah and luckily it didn't go anywhere but i was just like i was like whew but dude my 20s i'd be all on that you know i know yeah or arguing that like i'm like here's the thing about health care reform it's actually insurance reform it was like dude to this day i don't know what single payer really means listen we'll stop the podcast i know what it is but i just don't want to bore everybody else with it i don't know what it yeah everyone's like we gotta switch to a single pair and i'm like

okay so i think and this will be the theme of the whole podcast is dudes just dudes just shooting right from the hip right from the hip pretty sure single payer is when you're one person paying no i think it I think it's basically, I think that is government healthcare. So it's one entity paying for the bills versus going through multiple streams. I believe so, but I'm not positive on that. Sound off in the comments of someone else's page, please. Yeah.

Dude, it's wild. Like healthcare is like... It's so stupid. It's wild. I have probably is like... It's so stupid. It's wild. I have probably some of the best healthcare you could have in the world. Same. And Karen got this bill. Karen has...

My wife has very... She has cystic titties. What? She has a lot of... She's got cyst... Yeah. She's got cystic titties. Yeah, dude.

Dang. Her tits are straighter than me. She has very small cysts. Her tits are the issue from the hip when they're on podcasts. Yeah. She's got straight cyst titties. Straight white. No, she has like a lot of like cysts in her tits.

And I guess that makes it harder when you get like a mammogram sure and so whatever she had to get like a mammogram and ultrasound and all this other shit yeah so you have to make sure it's not cancer right yeah and uh she gets this bill for like 600 some dollars and i was like that can't be right we have great insurance yeah is she on your insurance yeah okay yeah okay and uh so i call and i get this guy he's very nice he's like yeah but we you know the total bill was like 2100 i love when they frame it like that what you pay is six yeah and i said but you know these things are covered blah blah blah he's like yeah but's like, yeah, but we pay 90%. You cover 10. I'm like, okay.

So where is 600 coming from? And we went back and forth because $600, $2,100. Or sorry, if you're covering 90% of 2,100, I'm paying 210. Yeah. Right? Yeah. Yeah. This guy was like, yeah, you're paying 10%.

So what we do is we cover and he said it in like multiple different i'm like yeah but you keep saying 90 so like what am i paying 10 of is it the 2100 he's like yes and i'm like but that's not 600 and he was just like i know but there's this allowable uh blah blah blah thing we we can build. I'm like, so what? Dude, I was on the phone for this guy. I was like, okay, dude. He's like, I can look into you for if you want. But I was like, sure.

Yeah. Then I call. I was like, I'm just going to talk to someone else. So I hang up, call back. And there's a lady and she's like, oh, yeah, they fucked this up. I was like, God damn. See, but if I didn't follow up. I know.

Or ask questions. Bro. We'd be paying $600. And how many people just don't do that? There's so much of that. Because also, too, like, we're also fortunate in a way where it's like, you could also probably take time at your job, too, to be like, all right, let me look at this.

Or if, like, she shoots you a text, you can be like, what? And then, like like same thing like i'm lucky to work from home or i'm like all right i got some time i'm gonna follow up on this shit yeah i had a thing did i tell you about the property taxes no thing that got fucked up all right so this this is gonna be a little boring but but this is in uh hey this for all our homeowners out there i know it's a great market oh it. Oh, wait. Is this the land tax thing? Yeah, the property tax thing. Did I talk about it on the podcast?

I think you might have. But yeah. So, I mean, just quick story was that property taxes were supposed to be paid by the title company. Title company did not pay it. So, the bank paid it. Then the bank was like, hey, you owe us that money. But if not, we'll just increase your mortgage by 200 some dollars every month and i'm like no so i asked the title company i'm like so can you just give us that money they're like oh yeah we were actually about to pay it today but since the website is

down the baltimore county website's down we can't issue that money to you i'm like why it's mine same thing where he just went through he's like well the bank could hold us liable and then if there's debt somebody could buy your debt blah blah i'm like it's already paid the bank has already paid it there's no like the radical situation where the bank is gonna hold you like yeah so i had to go back and forth with him for like days and then finally one day i just emailed him a bunch all day and was like give me the money he was like okay i'll do it but you have to sign a contract that says you won't hold us it was a no harm contract and so basically saying if somebody if if the taxes

are not paid then i can't sue him but still i'm like you motherfucker if i like if i had like two kids and then i'm working all day and then like come home have to make dinner this and then get like just go to bed to do it all over again it's like you'd be like well i don't know we'll see hopefully it gets worked out yeah yeah the crazy i mean for you know it's just like it's just like a job for him and he doesn't give a shit he doesn't want to look into it you're just giving him more work no it he's he runs the title company oh shit he's he's and so i'm like he's playing he's he's playing games so do you think he just didn't want to give you the money yes oh shit i think he was i think i think they're holding on to all this money in escrow and then probably collecting interest on it which i don't think you're supposed to do.

Wow. Because I read on Google it happened to other people too. They were supposed to pay my fucking property taxes. They didn't pay it. I found out the bank paid it. Then they were like, well, we can't give it to you. Same fucking thing. And I was like, give me the money.

And the guy's like, when can you be here? I was like, in 15 minutes. He's like, okay. And I'm like, yeah. Dang. Then they go, well, we'll mail you be here? I was like, in 15 minutes. He's like, okay. And I'm like, yeah. Then they go, well, we'll mail you a check.

I'm like, no fucking way. I'm not going to have this shit where it's like, well, we mailed it. I don't know where it is. It's not on us. I'm like,

you're going to hand me the check and I'm going to deposit it with my phone right in front of you. Like, Jesus Christ. Yeah, it was so annoying. But like, if I didn't work from home,

are these the back taxes or so? What are these tax? So it's, it's your property taxes. So it it was so annoying. But like if I didn't work from home. So are these the back taxes? What are these taxes? So it's your property taxes. So it's not. For a year? Yes. Yeah, yeah. Wait, but don't you pay that as part of your mortgage payment?

Oh, sweet, sweet humor. Sweet, sweet. It is. But the banks have it gamed where when you are paying that each month, you're putting money back into escrow. So you're basically paying it twice because you pay it at settlement and then every month you're basically refilling it because the bank is kind of saying if you were to foreclose,

at least you get that year. Yeah, exactly. Oh, so that's why I like if you were to sell your house, you see the taxes for that one year yes and then you're still repaying it basically or like you're filling it back up so you pay it at settlement and then in your mortgage you're adding more money to it right yeah so so that was already there but then the half of it that the because it was supposed to be a semi-annual thing in the county they were supposed to pay that in july and then in august it still wasn't paid and they're like

oh we're actually gonna pay it today and the guy goes it's just you know we've just been so busy we i think this summer we we closed about 1500 to 1600 mortgages so we've just been swamped i'm like i don't give a fuck no one cares that's not my fucking problem like he's just like god we're so busy yeah like i don't give a fuck it's like this is the whole reason you guys exist yeah you're a fucking middleman that's it very relatable content there we go how where are we uh what if i was like we're at two hours. That story was an hour. We're at about 48 minutes. All right. Yeah, yeah. I don't know if I have anything else.

So more relatable content went accidentally viral on the Facebook. Nice. So you had told me that you're like monetizing your Facebook videos. Yeah. And I was like, you were like, yeah, you should do it. You just like get invited to do it videos and i was like you were like yeah you should do it you just like get invited to do it and i was like oh i want to get invited to do yeah you just gotta post you gotta post and then facebook's like oh like you've gotten all these views and stuff and you had your wedding video that got like over a million right yeah um so

i was just putting up so i was mostly mostly doing like Instagram stuff, but I was like very like particular about like, okay, I'm going to post around 10 o'clock, but not at 10 o'clock. Cause I don't want the algorithm to think that I'm like, I know it's so stupid where comedy is going. There's so much fucking too. I'm like,

I'm going to post not a 10 or three, maybe 10 or seven. Not, it's just like all for this fucking algorithm. And it's just like, you have to be funny in a minute which sucks honestly you got to be funny in like the first like 10 10 seconds yeah and then then that keeps them because yeah you also get those analytics too where it's like a minute video it's

like 80 of people watch 40 seconds of it or whatever you're like oh my god it's crazy so on facebook uh so when i posted on instagram i would go to facebook as well but i wasn't getting as many views because you can see the analytics and stuff so i'd be getting like thousands of views on instagram like cool and then facebook it was like 180 i'm like that's weird and then we were talking about it and you're like yeah i think you facebook wants you to post just to facebook to be like, be like prioritize just their content, even though it's the same company, whatever. So I was just throwing up my reels and they were doing all right. And then the one that we did, the nest cam where I did like the deer thing, it just started going nuts.

That's awesome it was at like 80 000 views sunday morning yeah and then by sunday night it was at like 1.9 something insane yeah and then um and then like i was looking at all the comments and stuff and like the comments were like oh he's cheating and i was like yeah people are it's crazy how dumb people are well i was just like wait what what is this and then the best part is to appear like this is the worst ad i've ever seen and then people be like fake and i'm like yeah yeah but that's a big thing right now um people use the ring cameras for to do like their sketches to do yeah so yeah so that's that's what i did and i was like oh because we had a nest camera i was like oh it'd

be funny we had like whole deer thing um but what i didn't realize is for some reason my reels were only posting 30 seconds like that's the max that i could post on Facebook. Damn. So the deer sketch, the turn doesn't happen until 35 seconds in. So they don't even see it. So they don't even see it. So it's just the nest thing of me and Mary arguing kind of like, she's like, what's going on with the plants out here? I'm like, I don't know. She's like, well, the camera would record it.

I'm like, nah, does it record at night? She's like, yeah, it records at night so and then that's it that's great because then so then everybody in the comments is like oh he's cheating oh you're like what yeah yeah they didn't even get to the joke they didn't even get to the actual like yeah that's awesome and then it went like crazy and then i was like oh and then so facebook's like hey you reach this threshold you can start making money but not on that video on like the next video yeah so then i started releasing stuff and it was getting views and i was like oh i want to see how it's doing and i went to look at it and like it was the tide sketch that we did and it gets cut off in the middle

and i was like why did it get fucking cut off it was like oh it only posted the first 30 seconds that's no i posted the second half where it's like i'm a deer and stuff most people are really into it but some people are like what the fuck is this oh dude the comments you get on like if you have a video like my one video got uh has like eight point something million views insane i mean most people are gonna hate it you know and it's also it's me like talking about um how my mom it's just a joke about how my parents wanted me to like have an arranged marriage it's an arranged marriage joke and how my mom wanted me to meet this girl who her parents stopped by my house because me and my brother aren't married. This is all a true story.

But yeah, like that's also like a part of like Muslim culture too. You know, the joke is like, mom, does she know I'm an atheist? I drink, I do drugs, I have sex with strange women. Yeah. And then my mom said, oh, don't tell that to her after you're married, which my mom said it in jest. Oh, we're married which yeah my mom said it in oh we talked about it my mom said it in jest but anyways so people get so upset like and they're and then dude if you go on my tiktok that video yeah the debates are like and they'd be like i

hope this guy i hope i hope his sister marries a toxic guy like him i'm just like well why would you wish that on somebody i'm just making a fucking joke and it's crazy that people like i'm on stage with a microphone fucking around people cannot understand yeah like my one i shared a comment today that was like uh there's all these jokes i have about like how my wife's name is karen and the guy was like he's like how you're talking about your very personal sex life to make them laugh you are uh you have no honor as a comedian what yeah and his name is muhammad oh you know and it's just like bro first of all yeah have you watched stand-up ever at all like so every comic talks about their sex life.

Yeah. And most of it, it's also, too, like, what kind? It's like, man, having sex with my wife is awesome. Yeah. What else is going on? Well, I didn't even disparage my wife in the joke. The whole joke is just plays on the word Karen. Right, right, right.

And also, so I clicked on his profile because, like, that's another thing. Like, it is hard to not click on somebody's profile who, like, really, yeah. Also, so I clicked on his profile because that's another thing. It is hard to not click on somebody's profile who really doesn't like your joke. Yeah. And his name is like Muhammad blah, blah, blah, something the third. Yeah. I'm like, all right, well, you come from like a family who is like, we got to pass on our name. I'm like, yeah, that's that's so i understand like his and he's brown i'm brown oh yeah you know more so he's like he's like you're not a

dishonorable community you're a dishonorable person well yeah it's like you're being a bad muslim yeah by talking about sex on stage yeah yeah to strangers so it's nuts dude oh yeah that's great there was but yeah there was one guy that commented on like the second i don't know maybe it was the first one but it was like like this big of a fucking comment on facebook that's huge yeah he did like a whole thing of just like it was like google must have been like let's do an ad but not make it look like an ad and all this stuff it's like and here i am still thinking about google nest and then i look at his page and it's like his his like last status was like i'm unapologetically me like yeah you sure are like whatever the fuck i think his name was scott or something but yeah it's like just dumb shit

and then another one where it was like a guy said something he was like he was like get a job and i'm like first of all i want to be like i'm getting paid to make this video now but also well that's the thing too is like people don't get that like even like anytime they comment on it or interact with it yeah you don't even have to like you just have to look at it look they're making you money yeah so in them writing a comment is better than it's not it's way better than just watching it oh because that gets in the algorithm yeah it pushes it up in the algorithm so yeah that's like the funny part is like if you really hate something you should just ignore it because if you leave a shitty comment it's just

gonna help it more and then people are gonna debate your comment and it's gonna help it even more it just pushes it up it's crazy yeah. And people in the comments too are just like, somebody is like, I'm tired of this dumb shit. Or like, what did they say? It was like the first one. They were like, I'm tired of these like no context videos or something like that. And somebody is like, hey, guess what, idiot? This is an ad. Are you too dumb to realize?

It was incredible. Dude, incredible yeah and that's another thing you learn too it kind of gives you like some pause when you see some story about some celebrity yeah because you're like oh yeah i don't know anything about zero zero and then you'll i'll see the same thing like people commenting like debating fighting yeah one uh on that same marriage video there was like some guy like like a lot of them like a lot of people are calling me ugly and like this guy could never get married he's making this up why would anyone stop by his house and then some other kid who i guess like follows me and knows that i'm married he's like uh actually he's married you idiots and like now

it's starting this whole like debate about they're like well you'll never be married you what i'm like as a person and it's just so funny you're like holy shit these people are just sitting around i'm a nobody yeah these people are like sitting around debating about what i am as a human being right right yeah they're getting comments and they're like they're getting the notification that so and so responded they're like man well fuck him yeah i bet he's a loser yeah exactly this guy probably like cheats on his wife or lie and i'm like i okay you know you're reading the comment you're like you know i see this right yeah well i mean they don't give a shit or they they also like yeah just don't think you're a real person i think like louis ck i think the best bit one of the best bits he ever did was on conan

when he's talking about how cell phones um allow kids to be mean to each other oh interesting i don't think i've seen that one and now this research it's backed by research that the reason kids and people in general are mean to each other on social media is because louis his whole joke is like yeah when you like go up to a kid in person and on playground call him like you're fat then the other person gets like this look on their face and then you feel bad yeah there's a chemical reaction in your brain you call someone like like you're fat and then you're like that felt good yeah that's just i think that's like the most brilliant yeah and then also their avatar doesn't change to a sad one yeah it's just i think that's like the most brilliant yeah and then also their

avatar doesn't change to a sad one yeah it's still the like smiling probably they're like yeah he's fine look he's still smiling like there's no stimuli there to like change how you feel after you say that shitty comment yeah it's crazy and uh but you just gotta like yeah that's what you just gotta keep in mind you can't also you can never interact oh i don't i wouldn't interact with pause maybe positive but like on viral videos i would just like i i don't know like i think like interacting with people is i do it a little bit and like if people are like that's hilarious i'll hit it with like the haha i'm like thank you you know stuff like that but i'm there was one where because again people are just they just

think it's like yeah the weirdest like nest ad and so in in the beginning of it we're like what what the fuck no are you fucking serious this woman was like this lady she just goes all right that's enough with the f word and then it's like 20 comments of people like well fuck you barbara like oh no this poor lady that's awesome like shut the fuck up that's great oh man that's amazing yeah hell yeah dude so yeah it was like the weirdest accidental thing and then and then i gotta say it was very nice when people saw the second half some people were like what the fuck but a lot of people like dude it was hilarious oh hell yeah thank you yeah so but yeah but i i don't know i'll look into it but right now yeah i was like because my reels were doing fine but then i was like oh yeah they're

all cut off in the middle so that's crazy i gotta figure out how to make that 60 seconds or just get some really quick bits it really sucks though that like so much has to go into it well it sucks because it all gets heightened you know yeah like at first you know when we're posting clips they could be shitty because it was new yeah and now also quality like quality could be fine like the camera could be like 200 feet away you're like this big in the video but now like it has to be 4k or something near that equivalent it has to be vertical it has to be on it has to be like super close to you the vertical thing blows my mind i would have never thought that was coming back because yeah like you would see people recording like this and be like what an idiot you gotta fuck it you gotta turn it idiot and then has to be vertical has to have

captions you gotta bleep it you can't have cuss words can't have cuss words you got it and now dude like but now what comics do because they can afford it yeah like the successful ones they go they pay a video guy like actually i gotta be i bet a lot of people like do it for free because they just want to get it yeah like be around these people like they're fans yeah so they'll bring a multi-cam setup audio recording you're essentially recording like how you record like a tv show or a movie yep to for something that you're going to clip up and put on fucking instagram and facebook but they're making hundreds of thousands if not millions of dollars so it's like oh i get it yeah i mean once like it becomes a business yeah i think yeah so i'm like maybe i

should just like invest more i think like maybe this is also unrelatable but i'm like maybe i should just invest more money into like buying. I don't know. It's just like maybe I'll just buy a camera. Yeah. Pay every like month. I'll just give this guy like 300 bucks to clip up my stuff. Honestly, it takes so much time doing that shit.

It's ridiculous. And it doesn't look as good as if you pay a professional to do it. Yeah, they know what they're doing. Yeah, like because I'll fuck around. I just got Final Cut Pro. And that's another thing too where i'm like i was like well it's like 300 and mary's like well you can afford it if it's the nice one i was like oh yeah but but i would just pay someone i think yeah i i like just i like having it too though like for it's like little stuff like where it's like oh i can just do this yeah you know instead of like it's crazy dude it's insane it's so much that goes into it it's so much yeah i mean i know we're

complaining and whatever yeah but from what it was versus what it is now is so night and day yeah and then you put out like i put out like a full special that no one watched because i'm a nobody yeah and you're like oh this sucks that i can get these little clips we'll get i mean i understand like yeah you know that clips are more important than specials are more important like that's what sucks is like but is that going to dictate now how we do comedy are we going to try to write these like yeah because you because i think it'd be really hard to like if you look at like the great great comics and they're kind of doing it but like bill burr like louis like our great like yeah

a minute of their material doesn't work super well it it's not online it's not killer i mean a minute it would be like a bill burr setup yeah Like at minute 59, he's like, well, I don't know if I like women. You know, it would cut off there before it gets into the actual bit. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's like, hear me out. Yeah, yeah. He cuts off on the hear me out. Okay.

I'm not saying all. Yeah, exactly, exactly. Yeah, it just, it sucks. I hate it. Well, like the helicopter bit is what, like three, four minutes? And that's like one of the best bits of all time well that was like the hardest part um about cutting up the my newest special yeah because i was like i wanted to be because the first special i did uh i just gave it to this guy

and i was like you find that like um you didn't tell him like no minute 20 to 2.24 is the bread bit. And then he did a great job, but there was a couple, I was like, ah, I wish like the whole joke was there. Like some of the jokes got caught up in like two or three instead of like one thing, blah, blah, blah. And so this one I'm like sitting and you have to have every joke that you wrote in this special, in this like 30 minutes that I filmed, you have to have every joke try to fit into a minute. And it sucks because you're like, okay, well, you just lose some setup or you lose some punchlines. And you're like, this is not how you're supposed to consume this. But I guess that's just the way yeah it's going yeah because i don't think the crowd work thing is gonna last forever either it's bad for comedy because then people

think they're supposed to yell interrupt and stuff yeah but that's what everybody wants to put out because then they're not burning material and stuff too and it does do really well like you have a video of you just shitting on like a... And especially if the person's like a douche. Yes. It's... People love it. Yeah. Like, Stav, our buddy Stav.

I mean, his crowd work... I mean, he is very original crowd work. He does, yeah. But that's what made him, essentially. Well, I mean, I think, yeah, he laid the groundwork on his YouTube with those videos. And it was like, and here's my special. Yeah. And people were like, awesome.

I'll check it out. Like, he... I think he had the best rollout on youtube out of any yeah yeah his stuff looks great it went to a mil the quickest so fast it's insane it's crazy insane but yeah and then it's yeah there's so much shit too i know we're complaining a lot but then it's like all right so i'm gonna do this clip for the instagram do this one for the YouTube shorts, and then I'm going to do this for Instagram. Yeah. We got like, oh my God, dude. Stupid, but we're making money, so.

Yeah. Yeah. I mean, hopefully, yeah. Hopefully it just lasts now. So I'm just like. I have a feeling this is like Facebook's attempt to keep people. I mean, it's probably a bad sign if we're all making money this easily off facebook yeah you know well they did a thing uh and again

more esoteric stuff are you doing stars on facebook i don't even know what that is i i don't know what i barely know what it is since i just got it this weekend they're like do you do you want to do stars and i'm like what's the star they're like, do you want to do stars? And I'm like, what's a star? They're like, tell your audience about stars and we'll pay you. And now on like videos, you can like star.

I don't even know what it does, but there's some type of financial incentive to use it as well. Okay. I mean, the life of an influencer, you know? Crazy.
