                                         You know they ought to rename this place Vodka Soda Burg
                                         
                                         Cause I've been drinking with they, almost in they, say that they ain't almost, but they look like one to me.
                                         
                                         I got twenty-five bucks to blow and vodka's so to hurt.
                                         
                                         Yeah, that's five drinks, five, five, five, and only two. Thank you. I'm full of shit and some straw and some gin
                                         
                                         And now it's starting to get right in my good sober
                                         
                                         My brain is feeling sparkly, wow
                                         
                                         Oh, I'm so, I'm so broken with alcohol Everything is clear to me now
                                         
    
                                         Well, I met a self-described
                                         
                                         Hopeless romantic
                                         
                                         He'll go to buy me another drink
                                         
                                         He must be retarded
                                         
                                         And go back to his fucking pad
                                         
                                         Alone in Bushwick And go back to the spoky and pad alone in the spring.
                                         
                                         And I went home with a mulatto.
                                         
                                         Oh yeah, it had some mighty cold snow.
                                         
    
                                         And that's why they wrote a song about me.
                                         
                                         Oh no!

                                         But once we saw the guest list, like stage guest list at show number one,
                                         
                                         we know show number two is going to stink.
                                         
                                         And this won't go out until after it's too late for them.
                                         
                                         We got their money. it was great because uh on stage tonight while you were wrapping up you said i feel like every

                                         And then you said, sometimes my life's more important than yours.
                                         
                                         And you were talking to the audience.
                                         
                                         But a couple people thought you were talking to Ron White.
                                         
                                         Because one guy went, fuck yeah.
                                         
                                         He thought that that meant you were going to do more time because Ron White had to wait.
                                         
                                         Because you were saying that to Ron.
                                         
                                         And I just giggled because I'm like,
                                         
    
                                         dude, you couldn't be further off from what's happening right now.
                                         
                                         And it's always that one guy,
                                         
                                         thank God I didn't hear him,
                                         
                                         that, well, you don't.
                                         
                                         Ron White is one of the few guys
                                         
                                         that I know that really doesn't give a fuck
                                         
                                         and enjoys his life.
                                         
                                         We listen to three Burt Kreischer podcasts in a row
                                         
    
                                         where they all talked about me.
                                         
                                         Because they're friends of mine.
                                         
                                         We listen to the people we know.
                                         
                                         It was you, Henry Phillips.
                                         
                                         It did seem a little bit like a setup as we were listening to the third one
                                         
                                         that maybe we're just listening to these so Doug can feel better about himself
                                         
                                         on the road.
                                         
                                         Like, damn.
                                         
    
                                         Does
                                         
                                         Bert have any podcasts that aren't
                                         
                                         mostly about Doug?
                                         
                                         It was nice.
                                         
                                         Obviously, you go... I haven't listened
                                         
                                         to Bert's podcast except for
                                         
                                         the 200th episode
                                         
                                         because I heard they mentioned my name.
                                         
    
                                         So you listened to it over...
                                         
                                         No, no, but now this time we go,
                                         
                                         well, Bert and I are doing a swap cast.
                                         
                                         That's what we call them.
                                         
                                         It still makes no sense to me
                                         
                                         when two comedians that both have podcasts.
                                         
                                         Well, you do my podcast, then I'll do your podcast.
                                         
                                         Well, then just make them both your podcasts.
                                         
    
                                         Right?
                                         
                                         Just do it once?
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Yeah, and put it in.
                                         
                                         You both put it out.
                                         
                                         Put it on out.
                                         
                                         And no one picks up on that.
                                         
                                         I forget my point.
                                         
    
                                         Well, when we started scrolling through Birdsong.
                                         
                                         Well, you know why you made your point, Doug?
                                         
                                         I'll tell you why.
                                         
                                         It's 1.30 in the morning.
                                         
                                         So this isn't going to be like that Joe Rogan stuff I did at 4.30 in the afternoon where I'm sober for two and a half hours.
                                         
                                         And then we slowly work into a buzz and work into some kind of a...
                                         
                                         We're starting off fucked up.
                                         
                                         I'm just saying.

                                         And we have a million people.

                                         From here.
                                         
    
                                         And then when I got there, I thought, well, maybe I can get all these people to come back to the house with me.
                                         
                                         And if I lied to them about how close it is, then I provide world-class transportation in the tater wagon.
                                         
                                         So I called and woke up my bus driver, and I said, hey, why don't you come get us?
                                         
                                         It worked. And so he came and woke up my bus driver and i said hey won't you come get us and it worked
                                         
                                         and uh so he came and got us and here we are and then he seemed freshly roused from bed by the way
                                         
                                         he drove back into the uh neighborhood god i couldn't figure out what the buggy was doing i
                                         
                                         mean jesus he's a great bus driver i can sleep like a baby when that guy's fucking driving
                                         
                                         yeah and uh but yeah i didn't know we got to a point where it seemed like we might have to turn around
                                         
    
                                         and there wasn't room enough to turn the tater wagon around.
                                         
                                         It was, I held a piss for so long.

                                         I know it's a big house.

                                         By the time I get people over there, I'm already embarrassed that it's my house.
                                         
                                         And then I'm like, oh, yeah, they're going to have to look at it.

                                         part of a thing. Hang on. Jeremy actually had an answer.
                                         
                                         This is the terrace level.
                                         
                                         And you don't even know the name of the room of the terrace level.
                                         
                                         Well, this is like a poker table, and then that's another room, and that's a bar.
                                         
                                         Yeah, and this is on how many floors is this?
                                         
                                         85?
                                         
                                         It's three floors. It's three 85? It's three floors.
                                         
                                         It's three floors.
                                         
    
                                         It's three floors.
                                         
                                         Now people are going to hate me for now on
                                         
                                         because I bought a house.
                                         
                                         Really?
                                         
                                         Yeah, everybody's going to start hating me.
                                         
                                         That's what I love about Ron White.
                                         
                                         I saw you the last time we were on the bus.
                                         
                                         It was Bingo and I and Tom Hester.
                                         
    
                                         And you were coming from Killeen, Texas.
                                         
                                         And you had the bus parked outside of some weird bar you liked.
                                         
                                         And I made some reference to you.
                                         
                                         I go, you bought a bit from Andy Andrist, which I'm going to steal all of his bits because he does them so poorly.
                                         
                                         That guy's awful.
                                         
                                         He's our new manager.
                                         
                                         It did.
                                         
                                         He's going to manage a Bird Cloud tour just because they're all fucked up.
                                         
    
                                         Bird Cloud.
                                         
                                         We'll get to Bird Cloud soon.
                                         
                                         We'll rotate you in and out.
                                         
                                         I think Bird Cloud's about to get to each other,
                                         
                                         which I was hoping.
                                         
                                         We did an aborted podcast earlier where I,
                                         
                                         we tried to do a podcast with bird cloud early when I was vaguely sober.
                                         
                                         And so were they in daylight.
                                         
    
                                         And we just go,
                                         
                                         this is never gonna fucking work
                                         
                                         we just ditched it but
                                         
                                         what I the only
                                         
                                         part I missed
                                         
                                         that I want in is where I
                                         
                                         go because they're talking about they
                                         
                                         just came down for this show to
                                         
    
                                         go to Ikea to buy
                                         
                                         some fucking mismatched furniture or
                                         
                                         some weird shit I thought they were just
                                         
                                         telling me that so I just say that they were gay.
                                         
                                         I was like, so you don't know, Ron.
                                         
                                         We just went to Ikea and bought some furniture together.
                                         
                                         And so you don't get the wrong idea.
                                         
                                         When you see their videos, I go,
                                         
    
                                         you're probably doing a disservice to your fan base.
                                         
                                         Because if you see their videos, you think they're gay.
                                         
                                         And I said that most of your fan base don't want to picture you shopping at Ikea.
                                         
                                         They want to picture you passing out drunk while scissoring.
                                         
                                         So you stick together when all the juices that you make dry up.
                                         
                                         It turns to crust.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         That's what they want. that you make dry up. It turns to crust. Yeah. Yeah.
                                         
    
                                         That's what they want.
                                         
                                         We do this thing
                                         
                                         where we do these chastity braids.
                                         
                                         Like, we grow our pubes out really long
                                         
                                         so that, like, we can French braid
                                         
                                         our pussy hairs
                                         
                                         all the way down to our asshole hairs
                                         
                                         so that nothing gets in
                                         
    
                                         and nothing gets out.
                                         
                                         It's like Fort Knox kind of thing.
                                         
                                         So you could also use it as a filter.
                                         
                                         But we also, you know, I mean, we still stick together that way.
                                         
                                         You know, it's some kind of a, you could, you could use it.
                                         
                                         It's like a comb over instead of vaginal rejuvenation.
                                         
                                         Exactly.
                                         
                                         You could just reverse it.
                                         
    
                                         It is.
                                         
                                         Vaginal repubination.
                                         
                                         Squeeze it in again.
                                         
                                         Oh,
                                         
                                         see, this is what I was saying.
                                         
                                         I have no idea
                                         
                                         what I was saying.
                                         
                                         See, now,
                                         
    
                                         when you do Rogan's podcast,
                                         
                                         somebody's all hopped up on something.
                                         
                                         Rogan's got this supernatural energy
                                         
                                         that fucking prevails
                                         
                                         over whatever kind of buzz that I've got.
                                         
                                         But you and I operate on the same level.
                                         
                                         It's 1.30 in the morning.
                                         
                                         We've been drinking.
                                         
    
                                         It says fish.
                                         
                                         It says fish like fish.
                                         
                                         All right, fuck you.
                                         
                                         I'm not going to take a leadership role in any of this.
                                         
                                         I'm taking a back seat for the rest of this podcast.
                                         
                                         I remember busting Rogan's balls
                                         
                                         I didn't remember
                                         
                                         I didn't remember
                                         
    
                                         there's a difference between those two
                                         
                                         I remembered and I didn't remember
                                         
                                         someone reminded me
                                         
                                         that I said it out loud
                                         
                                         where I busted his balls
                                         
                                         did you ever do the comedy store podcast
                                         
                                         downstairs in the basement
                                         
                                         and you remembered because I vaguely remembered it Where I busted his balls. Did you ever do the Comedy Store podcast downstairs in the basement?
                                         
    
                                         Yes.
                                         
                                         And you remember it?
                                         
                                         Because I vaguely remembered it.
                                         
                                         But it wasn't him.
                                         
                                         Well, he was on with me and Chad Shank, who's my co-host.
                                         
                                         No, there was two.
                                         
                                         It was that chick from the Comedy Store. It's Eleanor and Rick Ingram.
                                         
                                         Eleanor Kerrigan and Rick Ingram.
                                         
    
                                         And I went down there and I did it, just before I forget this, because I'll forget it.
                                         
                                         I went down there and I did it just before I forget this because I'll forget it
                                         
                                         I thought
                                         
                                         it was odd that
                                         
                                         anytime I told a story
                                         
                                         Rick Ingram would
                                         
                                         tell seven stories
                                         
                                         like we're there to listen to his
                                         
    
                                         podcast
                                         
                                         I'm sitting there all evening long
                                         
                                         going hey
                                         
                                         Ron White tell me a story that
                                         
                                         reminds me about me.
                                         
                                         And I'll tell you about that story for a long time.
                                         
                                         Seven times.

                                         He needs to bring the guest into the conversation every once in a while.

                                         And it gets to that point where the party's over.
                                         
                                         There's three of us in a condo.

                                         And no one says anything.
                                         
                                         We're kind of drunk.
                                         
    
                                         And then Ron springs up.

                                         It was like we were blind.
                                         
                                         When did she turn

                                         You wouldn't be able to steal it. She was a great
                                         
                                         big old fat person.

                                         mean I wouldn't have had sex with her.

                                         She was just so unfunny.
                                         
                                         That's all I remember, really.
                                         
                                         I remember turning loose
                                         
                                         with some of that old pussy line.
                                         
                                         Was this the Houston club?
                                         
                                         No, it was the Oklahoma City
                                         
    
                                         Jokers. We just played
                                         
                                         this place where
                                         
                                         they still have this sign
                                         
                                         for, remember there were two
                                         
                                         jokers across the street from each other?
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Shirley Bynum.
                                         
                                         And her husband owned the other one.
                                         
    
                                         Gary Bynum.
                                         
                                         Gary Bynum.
                                         
                                         And they hated each other.
                                         
                                         And I remember that she could make these vegetables with the teriyaki sauce that I liked to eat.
                                         
                                         That was the first vegetable I ever liked.
                                         
                                         She made it at that club.
                                         
                                         It was out of frozen vegetables and some kind of shit.
                                         
                                         She squirted on it, and I was fucking scooping it down.
                                         
    
                                         That's the first vegetable I ever...
                                         
                                         So the husband and wife, they get divorced.
                                         
                                         They have to split up the club.
                                         
                                         So one opens a club, kitty corner from the other.
                                         
                                         We were just there.
                                         
                                         You were with me, Chaley, the Oklahoma City,
                                         
                                         where we played.
                                         
                                         Are they both still there?
                                         
    
                                         And that fucking lady, we had to throw out of the club that place.
                                         
                                         I'm like, they still have this sign on the wall.
                                         
                                         And they would, like, wave.
                                         
                                         Like, one was the comedy shop, and one was the comedy shop with two P's and an E.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         Not that.
                                         
                                         One of them got the back sign off the divorce
                                         
                                         and tried to put it in the front of their building
                                         
    
                                         and they had a couple of things to it.
                                         
                                         They had barkers out front like,
                                         
                                         comedy over here, comedy.
                                         
                                         Barkers, yeah.
                                         
                                         And they would flag parking over here,
                                         
                                         going to comedy, come over here.
                                         
                                         Back when comedy was popular the first time.
                                         
                                         And they would fight.
                                         
    
                                         So Shirley Bynum,
                                         
                                         the one I worked for,
                                         
                                         was fucking crazed
                                         
                                         and they hated each other.
                                         
                                         We found one of those
                                         
                                         fat jiggling
                                         
                                         machines in a thrift store.
                                         
                                         You know, the belt goes around
                                         
    
                                         from the 1950s
                                         
                                         and it was for
                                         
                                         nothing. Like $10.
                                         
                                         And we bought it and put it in one of the rooms in the comedy condo.
                                         
                                         For the listener who doesn't know, it's an apartment complex with two or three bedrooms.
                                         
                                         Oh, yeah.
                                         
                                         That's the nicest explanation for that.
                                         
                                         We put that in the living room or one of the bedrooms because it was funny.
                                         
    
                                         It was falling apart.
                                         
                                         And
                                         
                                         later on she called me and she goes,
                                         
                                         who did
                                         
                                         this? She swore it was her
                                         
                                         ex-husband that had the other comedy
                                         
                                         club fucking with her.
                                         
                                         We just thought it would be funny
                                         
    
                                         to put a 1950s
                                         
                                         fat jiggler machine in the
                                         
                                         condo. The original scam.
                                         
                                         But she was so convinced it was him,
                                         
                                         and I'm going to get a restraining order.
                                         
                                         No, no, I did that.
                                         
                                         I thought it'd be funny for the next comedians
                                         
                                         that come in like they think that's part of a comedy condo
                                         
    
                                         is to have a 1950s, sorry.
                                         
                                         She turned loose with some of that old pussy.
                                         
                                         Shirley did.
                                         
                                         Yeah, she was an Amazon woman.
                                         
                                         Do you remember?
                                         
                                         It's kind of bullshit that you stole that joke,
                                         
                                         because I really think if you hadn't, Ron could have made something of himself.
                                         
                                         That was a missing link to my whole career, Doug.
                                         
    
                                         I just realized where I went off the tracks is you
                                         
                                         and Andy Andrist, where you said
                                         
                                         I go, yeah,
                                         
                                         Andy gave you one
                                         
                                         of his bits, and
                                         
                                         this is back in
                                         
                                         Austin when we did Mushrooms on Your Bus.
                                         
                                         Right. And you looked at me, you go,
                                         
    
                                         yeah, what I'd do is I
                                         
                                         I'll take another comics bit that's really funny,
                                         
                                         and then I'll take all the teeth out of it so it's not funny anymore,
                                         
                                         and I'll deliver it to my audience, and they will applaud.
                                         
                                         That's true.
                                         
                                         That's true.
                                         
                                         It's actually rare, a little rarer than that,
                                         
                                         but he had this bit that I just loved,
                                         
    
                                         and it was such an obscure piece,
                                         
                                         and he did it.
                                         
                                         It was amazing.
                                         
                                         I couldn't even see the humor in the fucking thing,
                                         
                                         but it was a beautifully thought-out thing
                                         
                                         inside of this fucked-up exterior
                                         
                                         that really didn't make a lot of sense,
                                         
                                         and I bought it from him.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah, I don't want to go into what it is because I just don't want people to know it.
                                         
                                         Because I know everything like I just thought of it three seconds ago.
                                         
                                         So I don't want to go into the bit.
                                         
                                         But that's what it was.
                                         
                                         And it was just a wonderful, very, very innocent, wonderful piece of comedy
                                         
                                         coming out of a very complex brain. And I really appreciated it, and I saw it.
                                         
                                         That's the way you describe your child when he has an affliction.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
    
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         It's a diverse brain.
                                         
                                         Yeah, he's got a super, yeah, hyped up, yeah.
                                         
                                         Yeah, so so far we've heard Andy Andrus described as a complex brain
                                         
                                         and the comedy condo described as an apartment building.
                                         
                                         Yeah, we're being easy on everybody.
                                         
                                         It's easy night.
                                         
                                         I like that you admitted that Andy has one good joke
                                         
    
                                         and still didn't want to tell it.
                                         
                                         You didn't even let him have it.
                                         
                                         I swear, a bucket list shit, I want to do a whole Andy Andrus CD of all his bits the way I've worked with him so long.
                                         
                                         And he nails it.
                                         
                                         If you watch him eight nights in a row, he nails that one bit.
                                         
                                         Sometimes he forgets the setup that makes it make sense,
                                         
                                         but has three new tags
                                         
                                         he's never said before.
                                         
    
                                         And where I can do,
                                         
                                         when I work with Andy, I
                                         
                                         follow him and my first
                                         
                                         eight minutes is doing the
                                         
                                         bits he just did the right way.
                                         
                                         So one day I'm just going to fuck with him
                                         
                                         and put out a whole cd of just andy
                                         
                                         andres the way it should have been yeah is it going to be called dumbing it up for the asses
                                         
    
                                         that is dumbing it down for the masses was the cd he put out that took the editor a year because he taped a week's worth of shows.
                                         
                                         And then he's like, how do I?
                                         
                                         It's not that he taped it.
                                         
                                         I had that CD.
                                         
                                         It was one of the first CDs I got when I started comedy.
                                         
                                         And it's just fucking.
                                         
                                         J. White Cotton on the mic?
                                         
                                         It's recorded like shit.
                                         
    
                                         That is the worst sounding CD I've ever heard in my life.
                                         
                                         Like a Walmart bit he's doing that just sounds like he recorded inside the actual Walmart.
                                         
                                         Well,
                                         
                                         there's a couple of the club games.
                                         
                                         The quality of the recording.
                                         
                                         Cause I'm not going to ever say anything good about that guy.
                                         
                                         The guy that made it or Andy,
                                         
                                         the guy that put that together.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         That guy sucked ass.
                                         
                                         That fucking thing is a Travis.
                                         
                                         Well, I'll just back away I have nothing to gain or lose
                                         
                                         but I know
                                         
                                         that editing that
                                         
                                         sound quality
                                         
                                         who gives a shit
                                         
    
                                         I'll
                                         
                                         be on your side
                                         
                                         but I know how
                                         
                                         fucking off kilter every night was where he,
                                         
                                         Andy,
                                         
                                         I'll,
                                         
                                         I'll,
                                         
                                         I'll take his side on this.
                                         
    
                                         This one only.
                                         
                                         Fuck.
                                         
                                         Just cut in on me when I'm stuttering.
                                         
                                         I got,
                                         
                                         you know what?
                                         
                                         I,
                                         
                                         when he was telling me about this bit,
                                         
                                         it was,
                                         
    
                                         uh,
                                         
                                         I didn't have any weed. And he said, oh, I got some weed.
                                         
                                         So he spends an hour going through this huge backpack, just going through,
                                         
                                         and every once in a while he'd find like a quarter of a crumb, a pot,
                                         
                                         and he was just kind of collecting that into one pile.
                                         
                                         And I'm like, this isn't what you were talking about when you said you had some fucking weed, is it, dude?
                                         
                                         But he scrapes it all together.
                                         
                                         And even though that's all he has, he's certainly
                                         
    
                                         willing to share it
                                         
                                         and tell stories.
                                         
                                         I don't even know that I ever talked
                                         
                                         to him before or again.
                                         
                                         I would love to try to do
                                         
                                         my version of what I remember
                                         
                                         of that bit. It's been a long time.
                                         
                                         Versus what
                                         
    
                                         your bit is. Oh, good lord.
                                         
                                         Mine's like a Gerber product.
                                         
                                         Yeah, it has nothing to do with that.
                                         
                                         I think your version's probably different.
                                         
                                         I don't mean to interrupt,
                                         
                                         but I would like to take this opportunity
                                         
                                         to announce that Andy and I are doing shows in June
                                         
                                         together in Montana and Idaho.
                                         
    
                                         So come out and see us do comedy.
                                         
                                         And then Andy will be...
                                         
                                         Why don't you do that together?
                                         
                                         Bird Cloud has hired Andy
                                         
                                         as a manager.
                                         
                                         Poor Bird Cloud.
                                         
                                         No money for Bird Cloud.
                                         
                                         No, I don't mean for that.
                                         
    
                                         No, they just like him.
                                         
                                         He's going to be our pretend manager.
                                         
                                         Pretend manager.
                                         
                                         I'm not joking.
                                         
                                         Andy and I are really doing shows together in June.
                                         
                                         We would love it if people came to the shows.
                                         
                                         It's going to be Andy and I on a whole run through the Northwest.
                                         
                                         So please come see it because we're going to be begging for people to be there.
                                         
    
                                         And again, like Doug said, you have to see Andy do all 12 of the shows if you want to get the jokes.
                                         
                                         So buy tickets to all of the shows of the tour.
                                         
                                         Hang on, let's take a quick break
                                         
                                         and back after this.
                                         
                                         And here's the telltale sign
                                         
                                         we're going into ad copy.
                                         
                                         copy. Mack Weldon does not support smoking cigarettes the way I always start. Mack Weldon.
                                         
                                         You know what? There's kids out there that don't have any socks, underwear, or beautifully form-fitting undershirts that I love from Mack Weldon.
                                         
    
                                         There's kids out there who dress their genitals in some kind of palm leaves that probably cut.
                                         
                                         That's how circumcision probably started, is some kid wearing sawgrass as underpants,
                                         
                                         and it cut off the tip of his foreskin.
                                         
                                         as underpants and it cut off the tip of his foreskin.
                                         
                                         I once made fun of a man who had no foreskin until I saw a kid wearing Sawgrass underpants.
                                         
                                         Nothing against Sawgrass underpants.
                                         
                                         All right, let's get to the pluses of Mack Weldon.
                                         
                                         As I've discussed, when Mack Weldon jumped on board
                                         
    
                                         with the Doug Stanhope podcast,
                                         
                                         I wore all of their products, socks, underpants, and the undershirt
                                         
                                         to my beautiful 1970s polyester suite.
                                         
                                         Yeah, I wear 1970s polyester suits, and they make you sweat so bad i used to do a bit about how bad fucking had to
                                         
                                         smell in the 70s when those suits were popular because they make you sweat so horrifically
                                         
                                         i remember that you were doing the on stage during the whole yeah at the studio
                                         
                                         saturday night fever yeah and then they would go and fuck in a toilet with all their
                                         
                                         pubes on, and you know it had to stink vociferously, viciously. It stank really bad. Had to have. And I
                                         
    
                                         wore one of those suits, as I always do on stage, but I didn't change my socks,pants or undershirt for a week vetting this product and in front of chaley
                                         
                                         i peeled my socks off after seven days and smelled them by myself yeah i was drinking but i also
                                         
                                         promote alcohol on this podcast so it's kind of a cross-pollination of sponsors perfect it was unbelievable uh they're comfortable the shirts
                                         
                                         make you suck your gut in a little bit so if you're like me it reminds you hey there's chicks
                                         
                                         around suck your gut in because previously i was wearing another brand of actually a high dollar brand.
                                         
                                         They were just thin.
                                         
                                         And I bought that brand because they were thin, didn't show through my suits.
                                         
                                         And within a couple wearings, they're all bloated out like my gut.
                                         
    
                                         Mack Weldon fights your gut back in.
                                         
                                         It's a form of exercise.
                                         
                                         When you're aware of your gut and you suck it in,
                                         
                                         it's better than no exercise at all.
                                         
                                         You're flexing your abs.
                                         
                                         Mac Weldon is the exercise of an undershirt
                                         
                                         because it stays fit and it reminds you,
                                         
                                         hey, there's chicks around.
                                         
    
                                         Suck in your gut, you fat old stooge that will never do another crunch.
                                         
                                         Yeah, so there's that.
                                         
                                         Smell your own feet.
                                         
                                         To some girls, that's a turn on.
                                         
                                         Listen, I know I haven't showered in a week, but look, I can smell my own socks.
                                         
                                         How bad could you be in your?
                                         
                                         Do they have to have Mack Weldon ladies undergarments for girls that are pigs like me?
                                         
                                         Because I know Bingo.
                                         
    
                                         She doesn't shower for weeks on end like I do.
                                         
                                         Maybe I wouldn't be.
                                         
                                         Never mind.
                                         
                                         Right now, if it's unisex, it's gals wearing the gentleman's cut.
                                         
                                         All right.
                                         
                                         I don't know if this is what I had, but in the bullet points,
                                         
                                         it says they have a line of silver underwear and shirts.
                                         
                                         Yeah, I definitely got those for you because it's antimicrobial,
                                         
    
                                         and that helps the – that may have been why –
                                         
                                         That eliminates odor.
                                         
                                         Yes, and I did that on purpose because –
                                         
                                         Well, let me talk to the people – I want to talk to you, Mack Weldon.
                                         
                                         Why aren't all your products odor eliminating?
                                         
                                         Why do you just have one?
                                         
                                         Do you think there's people, oh, I want comfortable socks,
                                         
                                         but I don't want to eliminate the foul smell of wearing them for a week.
                                         
    
                                         Just make them all silver lining.
                                         
                                         Well, not everyone wears socks for seven days in a row.
                                         
                                         And by the way, you didn't take those socks off when you got home from the gig.
                                         
                                         Don't make me go anti-Mac Weldon on you.
                                         
                                         I'm saying that the silver.
                                         
                                         Why don't you have all of your products that?
                                         
                                         Well, it's an upgrade to go from the regular dress sock.
                                         
                                         As a guy who watches pornography, and I won't say which hub or tube.
                                         
    
                                         I don't want to.
                                         
                                         But I guess there are people that are into the stink.
                                         
                                         I've seen it happen.
                                         
                                         So anyway.
                                         
                                         Actually, the silver is for the underpants, not the socks.
                                         
                                         It says right here, underwear and shirts, not the socks.
                                         
                                         Yep.
                                         
                                         But I know for sure that this doesn't make sense.
                                         
    
                                         I'm just telling you, the underpants definitely work.
                                         
                                         I can promote Mack Weldon because I've worn Mack Weldon all together.
                                         
                                         The full ensemble, the full triage of socks, shorts, and undershirts.
                                         
                                         And yeah, fantastic product.
                                         
                                         Hey, talk about how easy it is to order these.
                                         
                                         Yeah, it's really easy.
                                         
                                         Get a podcast, pound it out for years and hope someone comes and gives you their product for free or just do like normal people do and just go to Mack Weldon dot com and give them your credit card.
                                         
                                         It's way easier to order Mack Weldon and just pay a reasonable price using the promo code Stanhope than it is to do years of podcasting, hoping one day someone will recognize that, yeah, you have a fan base out there. The Killer Termites, the Mack Weldons, a perfect culmination of storms.
                                         
    
                                         We're going to need body bags, would say Becker.
                                         
                                         That's 20% off on your first purchase using promo code Stanhope.
                                         
                                         Then after that, you can spend $100 and get 10% off immediately.
                                         
                                         Immediately, meaning they'll give you money
                                         
                                         before you even give them money.
                                         
                                         So if you spend $100,
                                         
                                         immediately you'll get $10.
                                         
                                         At checkout, you'll get that 10%.
                                         
    
                                         If you spend over $100,
                                         
                                         you'll get that 10% knocked right off.
                                         
                                         If you go up to $150, you get 15%.
                                         
                                         And for my fan base,
                                         
                                         if you spend $100 on underclothing,
                                         
                                         that's a lifetime supply.
                                         
                                         Because I know you're gross grub bags like me.
                                         
                                         And yeah, one shower a year with your life expectancy,
                                         
    
                                         go for the full Monty. Get $100 worth.
                                         
                                         And if you don't like it, full refund.
                                         
                                         No questions asked.
                                         
                                         Again, I'm against Mack Weldon on this.
                                         
                                         Wouldn't you ask at least a couple questions?
                                         
                                         Like, oh, what was wrong?
                                         
                                         What can we do better?
                                         
                                         It's like saying, oh, hey, I bought $100 worth.
                                         
    
                                         Well, $90 technically because I got that $10 off.
                                         
                                         I didn't like it.
                                         
                                         Oh, we get it.
                                         
                                         Obviously, you didn't like it.
                                         
                                         We don't ask questions.
                                         
                                         Anyway, I'm trying to be pro my audience and pro mac weldon i used to do this when i would see a
                                         
                                         commercial like a car company our boss went out of town and we ordered too much inventory so now

                                         And I'd call the car lot and go, hey, I'd like to apply for the position of the new

                                         Well, no, I saw your commercial and you ordered too much inventory when the boss was away.
                                         
                                         So I assume someone's getting fired.
                                         
                                         Someone got sacked for sure.

                                         Someone got sacked, for sure.

                                         I can vouch for – I got an anti-story.
                                         
                                         Austin, I think it was the first Moon Tower comedy festival.
                                         
                                         He booked himself, not in the festival.
                                         
                                         He booked like the 40-seater theater, had about eight people come out,
                                         
                                         did a show, got fucking wasted,
                                         
                                         and then showed up at the Stephen H. Austin Hotel where all the Moon Tower people are
                                         
                                         hanging out and just took over.
                                         
                                         Just started ordering drinks off Rich Miller's bar tab.
                                         
    
                                         The best looker.
                                         
                                         Good.
                                         
                                         And everyone just letting him just go.
                                         
                                         It's like he's charming as fuck.
                                         
                                         I don't know how he can get away with it, but I'm sure it's slowly killing him.
                                         
                                         Yeah. Yeah, the Rich Miller
                                         
                                         combination.
                                         
                                         It's in the book.
                                         
    
                                         He's trying to goad me
                                         
                                         into telling a story where

                                         The first one's in the last book where you
                                         
                                         stood up for me when it went
                                         
                                         haywire, and in the next book is you stood up for me when it went haywire.
                                         
                                         And in the next book is Montreal where you gave me your laminate and that fucking cunt Bruce Hills.

                                         I had no idea.

                                         I mean, you're my friend, so I don't give a fuck. But you were sitting next to me when that argument happened.

                                         I was on a fucking tear.
                                         
                                         I don't even, I never understood that set.
                                         
                                         Renee had just got her face pounded in by the cops.
                                         
                                         And we had to go during that festival straight from the arrest to try to get uh i remember a facial bone whatever
                                         
                                         not orbital but yeah the sinus whatever the lower this is hitting the hot chick too this
                                         
                                         not like there's a difference but i'm just saying
                                         
    
                                         i went up on stage one night where I just found a football helmet in the back
                                         
                                         because it was an improv group usually plays there,
                                         
                                         and I put on a football helmet, and I just did my whole set of fuck cops.
                                         
                                         It was just hate.
                                         
                                         There was no jokes.
                                         
                                         And the thing is, everybody knows that was there.
                                         
                                         Everybody knows that you were the best comic in the room.
                                         
                                         But for some reason, you took a path that walked the whole room.
                                         
    
                                         Everybody left.
                                         
                                         Everybody left, and he was defying them to leave.
                                         
                                         And fuck you, motherfuckers.
                                         
                                         No, you were at the last show.
                                         
                                         I wasn't even at the worst one?
                                         
                                         No, you were at the worst one. That was really bad, but the worst one was the closing.
                                         
                                         I was the headliner for the closing set,
                                         
                                         and there was a bachelorette party at Zaney's
                                         
    
                                         in downtown Chicago, front row,
                                         
                                         and I was just snapping,
                                         
                                         and I stole the bachelorette's hat or something.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         The Dictator?
                                         
                                         I don't know, but I stole it off her head and told them to go fuck themselves.
                                         
                                         And then I left, and they're chasing management around to get their hat back.
                                         
                                         And they wanted their $50 back.
                                         
    
                                         And I got booed.
                                         
                                         Oh, they... Everyone walked out, whatever.
                                         
                                         Then I have to go back to the finale
                                         
                                         party and sit with Ron White
                                         
                                         where nobody will talk
                                         
                                         to me.
                                         
                                         We have a bad set.
                                         
                                         I don't know, Bird Cloud, if you've ever had a bad
                                         
    
                                         set. It wasn't as bad
                                         
                                         as this one.
                                         
                                         We've had real bad sets, yeah.
                                         
                                         Where no one will talk to you?
                                         
                                         Oh, yeah.
                                         
                                         We played in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
                                         
                                         And it was, yeah, the janitor bought a CD.
                                         
                                         Nobody clapped.
                                         
    
                                         And I just, like, made fun of all these, like, middle-aged women.
                                         
                                         You've been talking about washing your big pussy.
                                         
                                         And if nobody laughs at that, you're going to go, oh, they think.
                                         
                                         I've had a lot of kids.
                                         
                                         I don't know what their problem is up there, but they didn't like it.
                                         
                                         And so it just made us even more turned on on stage.
                                         
                                         We just spread our bat wings out and just really settle into this like, oh, well
                                         
                                         if people really hate us, then
                                         
    
                                         we're really going to fucking get
                                         
                                         the fuck off on it.
                                         
                                         So that was
                                         
                                         good.
                                         
                                         It was good.
                                         
                                         But where
                                         
                                         the other artists
                                         
                                         wouldn't even talk to you?
                                         
    
                                         Have you ever had that show where the other acts?
                                         
                                         Lots of times, yeah.
                                         
                                         Wow.
                                         
                                         I thought your show was fantastic.
                                         
                                         I thought it was hilarious and sexy and fun,
                                         
                                         and I thought it was great.
                                         
                                         Thanks.

                                         remember telling you that
                                         
                                         as we heard on
                                         
                                         that podcast that
                                         
                                         that story you tell
                                         
                                         this is before
                                         
                                         way before
                                         
                                         Blue Cock. Yeah, way before.
                                         
                                         I got paid $100 to do that festival, and the check bounced.
                                         
    
                                         I swear to God.
                                         
                                         To this day, I have not been recouped my $100 for that fucking...
                                         
                                         I did some big shows.
                                         
                                         I did one with Gaffigan, and I was opening for him. And then for a while
                                         
                                         he would have been opening for me, and then I would have been
                                         
                                         opening for him again.
                                         
                                         And that's the way it ended for the rest of our lives.
                                         
                                         I remember telling you,
                                         
    
                                         when you wrote that, when you
                                         
                                         write a story that good,
                                         
                                         write more stories.
                                         
                                         You were talking about
                                         
                                         they don't have new material or something like that. But just talking about, like, I don't have new material or anything, something like that.
                                         
                                         But I had just, like, nobody in this entire festival of my peers will talk to me except for Ron White.
                                         
                                         And then Renee got so drunk that you had to help me carry her up a service elevator.
                                         
                                         I remember that part.
                                         
    
                                         To put her down.
                                         
                                         I remember the whole night. I remember the whole night.
                                         
                                         I remember the whole night.
                                         
                                         I remember just going, I don't give a fuck.
                                         
                                         It doesn't matter to me.
                                         
                                         I mean, the set went the way the set went, and I didn't care.
                                         
                                         You know, I was a big Stanhope fan before, during, and after the whole fucking thing.
                                         
                                         If you can't hang with it, you can't fucking hang with it.
                                         
    
                                         There you go.
                                         
                                         But I remember you telling me about what we talked about tonight
                                         
                                         on that other podcast about
                                         
                                         you being fired from the
                                         
                                         punchline for being on acid.
                                         
                                         You got it. You got
                                         
                                         the fact sometimes you melt down.
                                         
                                         Yeah, I got it.
                                         
    
                                         There was a few dull spots.
                                         
                                         I got
                                         
                                         the band from
                                         
                                         the Funnybone in Columbus, Ohio for 10 years also.
                                         
                                         I'm still banned from there, Dave Stroop.
                                         
                                         Oh, yeah, Dave Stroop.
                                         
                                         He hates you worse than he hates me.
                                         
                                         I forgot who I was talking to.
                                         
    
                                         You're the one that said you hoped his baby's head caved in or something.
                                         
                                         I hope his baby dies with a shunt put in his head and bleeds pus.
                                         
                                         It was beautiful.
                                         
                                         Yeah, I got banned from the whole mid-Atlantic for a while.
                                         
                                         And that was because he didn't like Hedberg.
                                         
                                         That's what started it.
                                         
                                         That's what started it.
                                         
                                         He fired Hedberg and tried to knock him down to a middle act
                                         
    
                                         after he'd done 15 fucking Lettermans and i stuck up for him and

                                         And there I went for 10 years.
                                         
                                         I got a 10-year sentence.
                                         
                                         I couldn't really explain it because I had her pussy juice on my fucking finger and
                                         
                                         my tongue in her throat you you'd been into the big lick they called gitchy goomy
                                         
                                         so yeah so that was 10 years wait when you say years, you don't play at the fucking Columbus Funny Bone.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah, I know, but it was a 10-year stretch.
                                         
                                         I mean, that was one of my favorite rooms, and they didn't bring me back.
                                         
                                         And then finally, when they did bring me back, it was right before I got really popular,
                                         
                                         so I was like, didn't really have to go anyway.
                                         
                                         But they had moved to a new location.
                                         
                                         I was really good friends.
                                         
                                         I used to trip with that staff all the time.
                                         
                                         I ate a lot of ass with that staff.
                                         
    
                                         It was a little part of my life when I was a little rambunctious.
                                         
                                         And so everybody was coming back to see me.
                                         
                                         It was a Saturday.
                                         
                                         Most of them had been at a wedding that week, so I hadn't seen everybody, all my old friends
                                         
                                         in 10 years.
                                         
                                         Every time one of them would come in, we'd do a big old glass of whiskey
                                         
                                         and three-show night.
                                         
                                         I'm there seven hours, right?
                                         
    
                                         So last show, I'm going to go back and check on the feature act,
                                         
                                         see where he's at in the show.
                                         
                                         And I can't get the two images of him within 20 feet of each other.
                                         
                                         I got full-blown double vision, and I'm trying to suck the two images back in with a fucking eye strain.
                                         
                                         And I can't even get them close.
                                         
                                         And as soon as I relax, they just spring right back apart all the way.
                                         
                                         I mean, one eye can do it, but two eyes, not even that close.
                                         
                                         And so that was my first time back and i go up the midnight show and it
                                         
    
                                         was just the ugliest fucking thing that i've ever created but nobody really noticed because they
                                         
                                         were doing the books and nobody cared you know i didn't i didn't know or i forgot which is the
                                         
                                         same thing at our ages just heard on the Cruncher podcast,
                                         
                                         you used to shoot dope and get chucked out of the Navy.
                                         
                                         I didn't know all this stuff about you.
                                         
                                         We're just trying to get Tracy Brown to turn loose some of that old pussy.
                                         
                                         I know, I know.
                                         
                                         Yeah, I've got a little, I got some.
                                         
    
                                         Wouldn't that be so horrible to be accused of sexual harassment
                                         
                                         when you were being sarcastic?
                                         
                                         No, we don't want you to
                                         
                                         That's the irony here
                                         
                                         I don't even want to see your pussy
                                         
                                         ever
                                         
                                         What if she did turn loose the pussy?
                                         
                                         She'd have to turn it loose
                                         
    
                                         someplace else
                                         
                                         Who knows?
                                         
                                         It was like...
                                         
                                         What's worse? Hey, ladies, get on that

                                         because one of them's Mackenzie,

                                         What would be more

                                         it and then they claim it as a joke. I mean, you know.
                                         
    
                                         Well, the comics do that all the time.
                                         
                                         For a living.
                                         
                                         For a living.
                                         
                                         If I say I want to fuck you and I say it in a funny way
                                         
                                         and then you say no, I go, I'm just kidding.
                                         
                                         Usually if I say I want to fuck you, I'm serious.
                                         
                                         Accepted the Tracy Brown way it but not that one
                                         
                                         no that one I was just saying

                                         would you be more offended
                                         
                                         if someone said hey bird cloud
                                         
                                         you want to turn loose some of that old pussy
                                         
                                         and they were
                                         
                                         sexually harassing you
                                         
                                         as an opening act
                                         
                                         do people ever hit on you
                                         
    
                                         that's irrelevant.
                                         
                                         The point being, seriously, as human beings,
                                         
                                         would you be more offended if they were trying to come on to you
                                         
                                         or they were mocking you because they'd never fuck you in a million years?
                                         
                                         And I would totally fuck either one of you in a million years.
                                         
                                         In a million years, I would.
                                         
                                         I would just say I don't care have you ever been fucked ironically
                                         
                                         yeah

                                         Exactly.

                                         This tequila, if I'm not wrong, I will tell you,
                                         
                                         this tequila has never lost a competition for a tequila that costs under $300,
                                         
                                         and it's only $79.
                                         
    
                                         Am I right?
                                         
                                         Pretty fucking close right there, buddy.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Well, that's the way it was eight months ago when I listened to the podcast you did today.
                                         
                                         That's a fucking tasty tequila.
                                         
                                         Yeah, you'll love it if you get a try.
                                         
                                         What else do you recommend?
                                         
                                         No, you just said that a little bit backwards.
                                         
    
                                         The podcast was eight months ago.
                                         
                                         We listened to it today.
                                         
                                         It doesn't matter.
                                         
                                         The tequila's never been in a contest that they didn't win.
                                         
                                         And it also won.
                                         
                                         It also got into the top five of all tequilas.
                                         
                                         Is that right?
                                         
                                         Yeah, it was voted one of the top five tequilas in the world,
                                         
    
                                         and it was the only one under $300.
                                         
                                         But you're right. It's about $80 five tequilas in the world, and it was the only one under $300. But you're right.
                                         
                                         It's about $80.
                                         
                                         That's the exterior and the aho.
                                         
                                         And the other two are also out there.
                                         
                                         The other two are shitty.
                                         
                                         The Blanco, which is delicious, is $39.99, and the Reposado is $49.95.
                                         
                                         And they both won multiple gold winners.
                                         
    
                                         And it's the shitty ones he's pouring into Bird Cloud's head.
                                         
                                         You can also go to oldtowntequila.com.
                                         
                                         That's where they sell it on the Alon line.
                                         
                                         And that's the way to go.
                                         
                                         And we're going to get a bunch of it sent out to the Fun House.
                                         
                                         And by the way, Bird Cloud is begging for this tequila.
                                         
                                         I'm not pouring it down their throat.
                                         
                                         They're saying, how about some more of that goddamn...
                                         
    
                                         Look at them. Look at them right there.
                                         
                                         100%.
                                         
                                         Did backflips in your house with it.
                                         
                                         Hey, Doug. Hey, Doug. I got a good idea.
                                         
                                         You know what? It's late.
                                         
                                         So let's go ahead and take a break.
                                         
                                         How about a break, Doug?
                                         
                                         Oh, you know what? There's gin. and take a break. How about a break, Doug? Oh, you know what?
                                         
    
                                         There's gin.
                                         
                                         Isn't there?
                                         
                                         Okay.
                                         
                                         There's always gin.
                                         
                                         Yes.
                                         
                                         Gin, somehow we get off of gin.
                                         
                                         Gin, we had a moment, like a month of gin fizzes.
                                         
                                         It's more than a moment.
                                         
    
                                         It was a while.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         And then it went into Negronis.
                                         
                                         That's what queer...
                                         
                                         Negronis ruined us.
                                         
                                         I still get emails about Negronis.
                                         
                                         Hey, or not emails, but tweets where people go,
                                         
                                         Hey, thanks, Doug Stanhope, having a Negroni at a bar with a picture of their Negroni.
                                         
    
                                         And we go, eh, rarely.
                                         
                                         It's just, yeah,
                                         
                                         it's a killer.
                                         
                                         What's a killer? Negronis.
                                         
                                         You can have two at best.
                                         
                                         So learn moderation.
                                         
                                         At the end of the night, do a closer.
                                         
                                         You know, we didn't talk about that.
                                         
    
                                         You don't remember to buy the orange,
                                         
                                         which is imperative
                                         
                                         to have the orange rind.
                                         
                                         We don't ever have it.
                                         
                                         That turned the corner on that drink for us, by the way.
                                         
                                         It did.
                                         
                                         We actually started doing the, not only just a little zest or something,
                                         
                                         when you actually just pull out your pocket knife or get a potato peeler
                                         
    
                                         and get one nice fat potato chip side.
                                         
                                         Which, if you're, you can, those are two things you can get past TSA,
                                         
                                         is orange is not really liquid.
                                         
                                         As much as a human being isn't liquid, even though you're 98% water,
                                         
                                         you can get yourself through TSA.
                                         
                                         You can get an orange, which probably more than 98 more than three
                                         
                                         ounces of liquid probably from an orange absolutely if you squeeze it hard squeeze it right yep
                                         
                                         this is a this is a a plug i don't even need to sell you give me a fucking million bullet points
                                         
    
                                         but audible i can't sell hard enough i don't know how to use it because
                                         
                                         i'm uh challenged technologically is that right technologically
                                         
                                         all right audible shut up audible i don't even need to sell because I grew up in my early road years listening to books on tape back when you'd have to rent them out of a truck stop and they were on cassette tape and then DVD where I go, I don't have DVD. I only have this in books on tape? Just change the road.
                                         
                                         And back then I was traveling eight hours between gigs in a day.
                                         
                                         But you guys, you fuckheads in L.A. and New York or wherever in metropolises, Chicago, you spend like an hour and 15 minutes every day in and out of work each way.
                                         
                                         Four and 15 minutes every day in and out of work.
                                         
                                         Each way.
                                         
                                         Angry, honking your horn, and nothing will change your day like listening to books on tape.
                                         
    
                                         And now it's easy for you, now that you're young
                                         
                                         and you can figure out all these...
                                         
                                         Well, they don't have that anymore.
                                         
                                         Audible's taken over the whole thing.

                                         in traffic we've done this with podcasts of our friends and we've done this with audible where
                                         
                                         you're listening to a book with me autobi autobiographies, biographies,
                                         
                                         you with whatever you want to listen to,
                                         
                                         a fucking Louis L'Amour Western, probably Audible has it.
                                         
                                         Oh, my God, no, I've never even thought about that.
                                         
    
                                         I usually, like, the one I was listening to was the John Ronson
                                         
                                         before we got it to the Duff McKagan,
                                         
                                         and you guys were like, eh, let's get, we want to rock and roll.
                                         
                                         Before we got it to the Duff McKagan, and you guys were like, let's get rock and roll.
                                         
                                         I love John Ronson, but with all due respect to Audible, because his voice, there's a reason that I had Chad Shank do most of my last book on Audible. And the next one, hopefully all of it, unless it's something specific where you need my voice.
                                         
                                         Hopefully all of it, unless it's something specific where you need my voice.
                                         
                                         John Ronson has a voice that you feel like you've been molested.
                                         
                                         No. Can I say that?
                                         
    
                                         I love listening to his voice.
                                         
                                         And everyone in the car shouted you down.
                                         
                                         I know.
                                         
                                         Everyone in the tour van said.
                                         
                                         I have three books by him that I haven't listened to yet that I ordered.
                                         
                                         him that we i haven't listened to yet that i ordered he's one of the only authors that i've read three books of once i listened to a little bit i felt like there was an et glowing long
                                         
                                         piano finger inside of me listening to his voice and i love him the whole the psychopath test and so you've been publicly shamed oh my god
                                         
                                         is that good such a good book yeah uh read those but go to audible for other books if i'm not a
                                         
    
                                         little bit fucking honest these reads will come across as bullshit and audible is the only one
                                         
                                         that i can i would do without any sponsorship. We've done plenty of plugs for them even before they sponsored.
                                         
                                         The one I was going to suggest, because the Duff McKagan one,
                                         
                                         It's So Easy, on a big portion of that tour was us listening to that book.
                                         
                                         Well, here's the problem is when you listen to Audible,
                                         
                                         when you're listening to a book, everyone in the tour van has to be on board.
                                         
                                         So that's why we always went with rock and roll biographies and like shit.
                                         
                                         We're all dealing with in the moment because everyone's on board.
                                         
    
                                         And all of a sudden some Hannigan held trip where you go,
                                         
                                         why did you think Pittsburgh was near Omaha?
                                         
                                         You fucking asshole.
                                         
                                         But the drives fly by.
                                         
                                         Yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                         And if you sit in traffic listening,
                                         
                                         it makes such a difference.
                                         
                                         And I was against it because what I'm interested in
                                         
    
                                         is not what you're interested in,
                                         
                                         but we found common ground through Audible.
                                         
                                         The one I was going to suggest after that because we had a couple days, but then we didn't really have long drives.
                                         
                                         The Medium Raw, Anthony Bourdain's second book.
                                         
                                         So good.
                                         
                                         And his writing, I mean, you've read Kitchen Confidential.
                                         
                                         Did you?
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
    
                                         You actually read the book.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         I've actually listened to Medium Raw.
                                         
                                         I would listen to it again.
                                         
                                         It's that good.
                                         
                                         And I was going to suggest that one because that's in my queue.
                                         
                                         I've got a bunch of books here that I never went to.
                                         
                                         But yeah, next trip, that's definitely one we're going to put in.
                                         
    
                                         Go ahead.
                                         
                                         Give the plug.
                                         
                                         Audible.com slash Doug Stanhope.
                                         
                                         Slash Doug Stanhope.

                                         didn't finish slash's uh autobiography years ago so that's when i would actually you know i'll pull
                                         
                                         that up because every uh month you get one uh one free book so that's a book. NoFX is on Audible.
                                         
                                         Yes.
                                         
    
                                         I've downloaded that as well.
                                         
                                         That's what NoFX, that book is so great because unlike Slash and Duff McKagan,
                                         
                                         who are in the same band and have separate biographies,
                                         
                                         NoFX has all the different band members in different chapters arguing against each other.
                                         
                                         He said that? No, I remember that night.
                                         
                                         That's bullshit. I didn't have
                                         
                                         a boner and no socks. I remember
                                         
                                         the socks specifically.
                                         
    
                                         I didn't touch her purse.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         More bands
                                         
                                         should do books together, but they don't talk.
                                         
                                         I have not even listened to the first

                                         Unlike a streaming or rental service with Audible, you own your books.
                                         
                                         You make me say things that are just buzzwords.
                                         
                                         No, you're getting a good deal just by being on Audible.
                                         
                                         on audible uh hey oh if you don't like audible go to library.com and they'll stamp your book and if it's late they'll come after you for late fees well into your student loan years are far

                                         I would love to listen to it on Audible.
                                         
                                         Did you read my book?
                                         
                                         Yes, I did.
                                         
                                         I read the dedication.
                                         
                                         She read the dedication to her.
                                         
                                         You're not going to read a book, but you would listen to that book on Audible, wouldn't you?
                                         
    
                                         I sure would.
                                         
                                         All right.
                                         
                                         Well, there you go.
                                         
                                         Are you doing a podcast right now, you bugger?
                                         
                                         Yeah, I'm doing a podcast right now. Do I usually make you drop plugs during a general conversation?
                                         
                                         Okay, call me when you're done.
                                         
                                         All right.
                                         
                                         I love you.
                                         
    
                                         Bye.
                                         
                                         Okay.
                                         
                                         That's Amy Bingo Bingaman.
                                         
                                         Even fresh out of a coma and brain damage,
                                         
                                         she can still listen to a book on Audible.
                                         
                                         It would have to be about her because that's how bingo works.
                                         
                                         Or as long as a greeting card.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
    
                                         She read my Audible book, but she only read the dedication to her
                                         
                                         and then quit after a long time.
                                         
                                         It took her like three days to read the five sentences I wrote.
                                         
                                         Anyway, audible, belabor the point.
                                         
                                         And for the record, as I'm finishing up my second book,
                                         
                                         the only thing I look forward to is doing the audible version
                                         
                                         because this book is not the depressing mother thing.
                                         
                                         This is road stories.
                                         
    
                                         It has a through line, but it's all the fun shit.
                                         
                                         And as I'm writing it, I can't wait to try to get all of these people on the audible version.
                                         
                                         of these people on the audible version because if you listen to the audible version of the last one we would stop what i wrote and have the person that i'm talking about on the audible version
                                         
                                         and i think we broke new ground doing that then hey patricia here's where i wrote about
                                         
                                         fucking you in the ass with your head hanging out of a holiday in Chicago out of a window so I could smoke while I.
                                         
                                         But no, you didn't come in my ass.
                                         
                                         You came on my back.
                                         
                                         And then we'd have back and forth.
                                         
    
                                         And that was.
                                         
                                         But with the new book, there's so many people involved.
                                         
                                         Dan Tosh back when he was D.T.

                                         wait to jack up all these people to tell their versions of the story on audible and uh yeah we

                                         Does it cry at night or does it understand as you tremble underneath your new man's hands.
                                         
                                         I can't remember when you were mine.

                                         There must be something severely wrong with your brain.

                                         Honey, that sounds good.

                                         There must be something severely
                                         
                                         wrong with your brain.
                                         
                                         Someone said your mama

                                         You're damn, you're so goddamn, goddamn fucking dumb.
                                         
                                         Hell yeah.

                                         I like biscuits and mustard.
                                         
                                         I also like the Doug Stanhope podcast. Mm-hmm.
                                         
                                         All right, we're back from God knows what.
                                         
                                         Bird cloud.
                                         
                                         I told Kathy, she's my publicist, and she was with us earlier today.
                                         
                                         And she said, well, I want to go hang out with you guys.
                                         
                                         And I'm like, no.
                                         
    
                                         Doug and I have a tendency to go for a level of debauchery that I really don't need my employees exposed to.
                                         
                                         Yeah, listen to the podcast.
                                         
                                         Oh, yeah, fuck, I forget people are listening to this shit.
                                         
                                         Everybody, I love you.
                                         
                                         Bird Cloud, what's the story behind that song
                                         
                                         You just played
                                         
                                         The dumb song
                                         
                                         Eat the mic
                                         
    
                                         That song
                                         
                                         We were hung over
                                         
                                         That song took us 13 hours to write
                                         
                                         Actually
                                         
                                         But
                                         
                                         Go ahead Jazz
                                         
                                         Take it away
                                         
                                         Well we went on them.
                                         
    
                                         We went on Americans Got Talent with that song.
                                         
                                         Really?
                                         
                                         Yes.
                                         
                                         They flew us down to San Antonio, Texas.
                                         
                                         We knew we were going down as sacrificial lambs.
                                         
                                         We knew that it wasn't going to be good.
                                         
                                         But we didn't know that we weren't going to be provided any fucking security
                                         
                                         and that they weren't going to fucking,
                                         
    
                                         they were going to treat us like fucking shit the whole time.
                                         
                                         Like everything was like, it was bullshit.
                                         
                                         Like we went down there and we knew we were going to be the losers, okay?
                                         
                                         Like we knew that they didn't want to love us at all.
                                         
                                         So we go down there and we do all this shit.
                                         
                                         We're the dance moms.
                                         
                                         But we smuggled in a pint of Jim Beam.
                                         
                                         Or a fifth?
                                         
    
                                         It was a fifth.
                                         
                                         It was a fifth of Jim Beam.
                                         
                                         The way we did it was I stuck it in my jacket pocket or my jacket sleeve,
                                         
                                         and then I took my jacket off, and I laid it down on the thing for this woman to wand us.
                                         
                                         And then she threw her jacket just nonchalantly on top of mine,
                                         
                                         and then, like, we just, like, walked in with this fucking fifth of fucking Beam.
                                         
                                         So we go on there, second to last.
                                         
                                         The exes are just lighting up under our feet.
                                         
    
                                         We're looking at each other like, just let's keep going.
                                         
                                         But before that, we're like, you know,
                                         
                                         we're the oldest people there.
                                         
                                         And they're like, why the goddamn fuck are you here?
                                         
                                         Like dance moms that are our age,

                                         She doesn't have respect from her peers like you do.
                                         
                                         Like you do.

                                         Yeah, you like it or you don't.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         They don't.
                                         
                                         Well, what happened was...
                                         
                                         Children liked her.
                                         
                                         The audience got out.
                                         
    
                                         Small children.
                                         
                                         The problem was we were second to last.
                                         
                                         So then the last one was a very well-loved drag queen performance.
                                         
                                         But we got out at the same time as the audience.
                                         
                                         As soon as we were done, they were like, get out of here.
                                         
                                         And we got out at the same time as the audience.
                                         
                                         We had just got booed by 2,500 people in the theater.
                                         
                                         How many did it hold?

                                         I don't know if you've ever been booed like that,
                                         
                                         but it was real.
                                         
                                         It was really...

                                         It was really...

                                         Speaking of editing.
                                         
                                         That was my comment earlier.
                                         
                                         Indigestion.
                                         
                                         So this MTV pilot.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah, we did it.
                                         
                                         We did MTV.
                                         
                                         Why would you?
                                         
                                         Well, you're the one who said,
                                         
                                         why don't we do a before and after?
                                         
                                         And you just went ballistic the way you were supposed to do when I was kind of sober and trying to focus on a show.
                                         
                                         You don't do the daddy role very good, Doug.
                                         
                                         You know, it's funny to watch you try to take responsibility for something.
                                         
    
                                         It's really kind of funny.
                                         
                                         But, you know, you're the smartest guy,
                                         
                                         although you can't prove it on paper.
                                         
                                         Really smart fella.
                                         
                                         But you got your glasses on,
                                         
                                         you got a tie, a coat,
                                         
                                         or no, you don't have a coat on,
                                         
                                         but, you know,
                                         
    
                                         you seem so serious sometimes,
                                         
                                         and, like, you're taking,
                                         
                                         I mean, you're, like, taking responsibility for people even drunker than you.
                                         
                                         You know, like you're leading us to someplace that we could be.
                                         
                                         Earlier today, we tried to do, the ladies will tell you.
                                         
                                         Yeah.

                                         We did a bad job.

                                         We're really hungover.
                                         
                                         Yanking teeth.

                                         I was yelling, hey can someone help me?

                                         They weren't potatoes. Well, you know. I was yelling, hey, can someone help me?
                                         
                                         They weren't potatoes.
                                         
    
                                         Well, you know. What were they?
                                         
                                         Red potatoes.
                                         
                                         Hot fix.
                                         
                                         They're called russets.
                                         
                                         Russets.
                                         
                                         Microwaves.
                                         
                                         Anyway, we get together sober.
                                         
                                         The last time we saw each other, it was a debacle,
                                         
    
                                         and we don't remember any of anything that happened last time we saw each other.
                                         
                                         So when we see each other again, we just try to nurse ourselves into drinks.
                                         
                                         But we thought we should do a podcast to promote their upcoming tour
                                         
                                         with Mishka Shabali in the UK in September.
                                         
                                         Fuck yeah!

                                         Old Gitche Goomey.
                                         
                                         He was about to move to California with him, with that girl.
                                         
                                         And I'm like, seriously, dude.
                                         
                                         I mean, he was the next morning.
                                         
                                         He was driving me to the airport.
                                         
                                         He just saw it.
                                         
    
                                         He didn't say anything.
                                         
                                         He's taking me to the airport the next morning.
                                         
                                         And there's this long, quiet pause
                                         
                                         where I'm not sure if he saw me pulling my hand out of her pants
                                         
                                         or pulling my tongue out of her mouth
                                         
                                         or it looked like I was just shoving her up against a wall.
                                         
                                         For another reason.
                                         
                                         Exactly, to him.
                                         
    
                                         This is back before it was illegal or frowned upon.
                                         
                                         Big jokes about.
                                         
                                         Then we're on the way to the airport.
                                         
                                         The next morning, he's taking me to the airport.
                                         
                                         And there's this long pause, empty.
                                         
                                         I'm like, okay, this is horrible.
                                         
                                         He goes, Karen said you kissed her last night.
                                         
                                         And I said, yeah, you know, it might have been a dance or, you know, she might have kissed me.
                                         
    
                                         I don't know.
                                         
                                         She said, you put your hands down her pants and started playing with her pussy and kissing her.
                                         
                                         And I'm like, I don't know.
                                         
                                         What do you mean by that?
                                         
                                         No, I certainly did not.
                                         
                                         And I was like, you know, I wouldn't move to California with her because she seemed to be a little slutty.
                                         
                                         That's a...
                                         
                                         A little slutty.
                                         
    
                                         That's a...
                                         
                                         Ten years I got.
                                         
                                         I got ten.
                                         
                                         And I'm the one that got the ten fucking years.
                                         
                                         A quandary where you...
                                         
                                         I've been in that position
                                         
                                         where you want to say...
                                         
                                         With his boss.
                                         
    
                                         Your wife is a...
                                         
                                         A cum dumpster.
                                         
                                         A fucking...
                                         
                                         I'm sorry to be the guy
                                         
                                         that knows...
                                         
                                         That breaks it, do you?
                                         
                                         I fucked her and stopped.
                                         
                                         Get out of that relationship.
                                         
    
                                         In a stall.
                                         
                                         Oh my God. This out of that relationship. In a stall. Oh, my God.
                                         
                                         This will all be edited.
                                         
                                         No, no, no.
                                         
                                         I'm not telling stories, but I have stories where I, oh, I fucked your wife and sorry,
                                         
                                         and you can't tell them, but you go, don't stay with her.
                                         
                                         Have you seen her?
                                         
                                         She's got kind of a cross on you.
                                         
    
                                         Don't marry her.
                                         
                                         I can't even tell you why.
                                         
                                         It's a feeling I have.
                                         
                                         It's a feeling.
                                         
                                         I'm having a feeling.
                                         
                                         It's a scratchy, itchy feeling that I have in my genital region.
                                         
                                         I don't know.
                                         
                                         Something's happened.
                                         
    
                                         All right, let's kill this podcast so we can talk stories.
                                         
                                         Wait, let me plug my UK dates.
                                         
                                         Okay.
                                         
                                         Mishka is going to be opening for Bird Cloud.
                                         
                                         When?
                                         
                                         No, I'm actually I'm leaving for the UK May 1st.
                                         
                                         I'm there May 4th to the 30th.
                                         
                                         Please come and see me as if Bird Cloud wasn't coming in September.
                                         
    
                                         In September.
                                         
                                         So that's your whole announcement is that you're going to be in the UK?
                                         
                                         And I'm going to be.
                                         
                                         Do you have any specific dates?
                                         
                                         I mean.
                                         
                                         Go to MishkaShibali.com.
                                         
                                         And then they're all over the place.
                                         
                                         Yeah, they're all on my website.
                                         
    
                                         Mishka, his songs are the soundtrack to my life.
                                         
                                         I was digging them all night long.
                                         
                                         Great, dude.
                                         
                                         Fantastic.
                                         
                                         The best opening line ever.
                                         
                                         I think he did it tonight.
                                         
                                         The potato peelings in the sink did not turn out to the vodka.
                                         
                                         Like I had hoped.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah, that was amazing.
                                         
                                         Best opening line ever written.
                                         
                                         Actually, if you want all of Mishka and Bird Cloud dates, as well as Doug Standup, go to oldtowntequila.com.
                                         
                                         And order number one tequila.
                                         
                                         And we'll be sending out tour dates with both these artists.
                                         
                                         That's a great idea.
                                         
                                         It's listed on the back of the bottle.
                                         
                                         I think we just picked up
                                         
    
                                         a sponsor. Limited edition bottles
                                         
                                         with just the dates on the back.
                                         
                                         I can think of a couple.
                                         
                                         I'm sponsoring the tour just with the rest of this
                                         
                                         bottle and just passing

                                         If you just drink a little bit of it.
                                         
                                         Rain on me.

                                         A matoid.

                                         Fuck it.

                                         Okay, can I tell you all?

                                         I never fucked the Matoid.
                                         
                                         He wouldn't.
                                         
                                         Wait, what?
                                         
                                         No, he was my roommate for about six months.
                                         
                                         Who was?
                                         
                                         The Matoid.
                                         
                                         He's this.
                                         
                                         He's this. Do's a Finnish player?
                                         
    
                                         He should get finished because I'm trying to close this part.
                                         
                                         Oh, you were trying to wrap it up.
                                         
                                         I just thought it would be funny.
                                         
                                         He writes these fucking amazing songs.
                                         
                                         He's the best.
                                         
                                         I can't believe he's not.
                                         
                                         He's a genius, but I can't believe he's not
                                         
                                         an international superstar.
                                         
    
                                         Unbelievable.
                                         
                                         And you did him?
                                         
                                         No, he lived with me for a little bit.
                                         
                                         But you didn't.
                                         
                                         But I couldn't believe when he was my roommate.
                                         
                                         I was like, oh my God, why would he want to live with me?
                                         
                                         This doesn't sound like a story.
                                         
                                         He was an immigrant.
                                         
    
                                         No.
                                         
                                         No.
                                         
                                         I don't believe you.
                                         
                                         I don't believe you.
                                         
                                         I don't believe you.
                                         
                                         I don't believe you.
                                         
                                         I don't believe you.
                                         
                                         I don't believe you.
                                         
    
                                         I don't believe you.
                                         
                                         I don't believe you.
                                         
                                         Right now.
                                         
                                         We're closing up.
                                         
                                         Okay, bye.
                                         
                                         Adios, amigos.
                                         
                                         Ah!
                                         
                                         She fucked the mat.
                                         
    
                                         Oh, you totally fucked him.
                                         
                                         I can tell.
                                         
                                         I can tell.
                                         
                                         Hey, you want me to...
                                         
                                         I'll close it by singing...
                                         
                                         I would fuck someone.
                                         
                                         I would fuck the mat because it would be so weird.
                                         
                                         I'm going to close this by...
                                         
    
                                         I'm going to close it by singing a Tim Wilson song.
                                         
                                         Me and Billy Gardell carry Tim Wilson to his grave.
                                         
                                         This is a perfect song.
                                         
                                         It's 60 seconds long.
                                         
                                         There's hope.
                                         
                                         There's despair.
                                         
                                         There's misdirection.
                                         
                                         There's redemption
                                         
    
                                         in a 60 second song, which makes it
                                         
                                         perfect.
                                         
                                         Perfect.
                                         
                                         Hold on.
                                         
                                         Who's going to die first?
                                         
                                         Who's the next guy?
                                         
                                         It's going to die.
                                         
                                         Here it is.
                                         
    
                                         He tried paddling to San Diego
                                         
                                         where the waves swept him out to sea, and he washed up on the beach at Waikiki.
                                         
                                         He's the only illegal Mexican in Honolulu.
                                         
                                         He's been here 20 minutes, gowned him a roofing job to do
                                         
                                         He don't know if they're gonna make him go
                                         
                                         Or if they're gonna let him stay
                                         
                                         But it's looking pretty good
                                         
                                         Cause we're already calling him

                                         The kind of rig that's ever been made.
                                         
                                         Drilling on the back roads so I wouldn't get weighed.
