Did you have to reshubble the same areas over and over?
Save it, for Christ's sakes.
Oh, I thought we were going.
No, it's issues with Alex Day.
Still trying to make shit work.
Well, so far I can hear everybody, so that's good.
Unfortunately, unlike you, Alex wasn't filming himself when he was about to break shit.
It wasn't working.
Uh-huh.
I was the same way I had Zoom all updated, and then I'm like, Riverside, what the fuck is?
is that?
Your safari's out of date.
Yeah.
I think we're going.
Technology.
We're going.
We're live.
Chad, everyone
at football was
saying, well, yeah,
it's not that bad here, but I guess it's
really bad in Herford because
Chad is posting video.
They didn't know you were in Globe.
so everyone thought that was right down the street that tracks they're all pretty old and i did hashtag
all of them globe arizona but i don't think those the crowd knows hashtags no probably not so
this is yeah a globe arizona flooded out again what was the first time that you had to go up
there what two weeks ago no wasn't it last year you when that went through the door
That was 2021.
That was years ago now.
All right.
Yeah.
This time it did not get up into the house.
It got right up against the house.
And I stayed out there pushing it into the flow.
It's trying to pull up.
I pushed it with a push broom back into the flow.
Wow.
It looked like it was, well, I probably didn't see as much footage of it in 21,
but it looked like pretty scary to be standing by like a like did you did were you worried about it
was going to hit the house at any point uh yes that's why i was outside i was right up against the
house pushing it away with a push broom it's uh uh that's what i do on my that's what i do on
my roof just to get standing water off of it but uh it's not going to hold back a river he
He texted us video of it, this rushing fucking, I don't know if it's a street or what it was, but it was rapids.
And he said, I thought he was joking.
He said, yeah, that's a great thing about being suicidal.
I just went out and stood in it and pushed it away from the door with a push broom.
And I thought he was kidding at first.
Oh, you get to look like a hero sometimes if you're just trying to hasten your own death and it doesn't happen.
well yeah dang it so it's all good for the moment no uh i'm living a nightmare that i've had
since i was first escaped here as a teenager the road up above us to get out of here is washed
out and the bridge down below us is washed out so i'm quite literally trapped in globe
Arizona for the moment.
Yeah, I don't think they're going to send the National Guard up there anytime soon to build a new
emergency bridge.
There's like six of us out here that are stranded anyway, maybe a little more, but.
Well, the, yeah.
Not at this house.
Well, good news then.
No rain in the forecast for a few days?
It's supposed to be done.
Oh, nice.
I do have these luxury living.
accommodations i was going to show you guys i'm here from my van i got uh there's there's the
bed that's where the magic happens oh yeah hanging up you see that's the bathroom and the water spigot
i got the uh there oh there's the fly strip it's uh it's uh oh hold on let me i got to get a i got to get a beer
I got to go to the kitchen, hold on.
You got to go to the kitchen.
This is the kitchen.
Turn the camera around so we can see grandma sitting in the front passenger seat.
With a life vest on.
You're not far off.
Whenever the flood comes up like that, my dad loads her into the truck,
and they just drive up to a higher road than here.
And they just laid out in the flood sitting in the truck.
How much higher is that?
Like from that, 100 feet?
Not that.
Uh-huh.
30, Navy, 15, 30.
So what got fucked up?
You said the yard to get taken out?
Yeah.
It knocked the barn down again.
That's what we spent all day.
I've been crawling underneath the barn.
We'd have to jack it up and try to pull shit out from underneath it
so that we could try to attach a winch to it and winch it back up where it's supposed to be.
Then it fell down.
And it's very stupid.
We should not be doing any of this that we're doing.
But my dad's a redneck and we're just doing it ourselves.
I'm guessing insurance is not involved in this at all.
that what what you saw flowing was a creek it they literally live right next to a creek the problem is it's always just been a little tiny creek that ran with snow runoff a couple of times a year you know and uh there was a big fire up there in 2020 that's why it flooded in 2021 it was a big burn scar up there and it won't absorb any of that water it just comes rushing off so that rushing water that i
you guys is the creek right next to their house so they're not doing nobody going to give them
fucking flood insurance i bet the fish are running real good but they're like frozen fish sticks
from the alco it's like a scavenger hunt i was down in the creek earlier i was like oh look
there's somebody's pants save them you never know they might fit kenny oh i get a uh i get a gift
from Bobby.
Are you still a double X?
Yeah.
You got your notes from the pen
double X.
Right on.
Fucking dude comes out of prison
with merch.
Yeah.
He knows what he's doing.
Yep.
How did that go?
Any stories you guys can tell me
they haven't told anywhere else?
We did a podcast
the last night with him,
but Andy and I were so fucking burned out.
And he was all full of energy,
like today.
hilt obviously well yeah he's got he's got a you know his lady met him on you know he's
hooking up with his lady for the first time so it's like a honeymoon with the family reunion
jammed in uh so uh yeah he had that kind of energy he was yeah and it was our last day of the
tour and uh we'd been doing i'd been doing some day dracon waiting for him to show up he was a
couple hours late and by then i was just looking at and
like it was a mirror reflection of me
or sitting like two old men
like he's visiting us at a home
and he's just fucking
pounded away. It was great though.
Oh, that's good.
I have talked to him since and he said
the, yeah, the
all the the highlights are
wearing off like all the
he's just
finally like settling in and doing nothing for a minute.
Yeah.
Oh yeah, you guys fucking explode.
in his whole serotonin level
was probably really low being in prison
that long. You guys just shot the top
off of it in a... He did great
on stage. He did like 15 minutes.
Yeah. Yeah, he
had to get out of prison and then worry
about bombing.
And then have to sell merch afterwards
and take pictures.
Which, yeah, if you bomb
the merch doesn't sell much.
Bingo was sending
all our people
his way from our merch
Nice
You want a sticker
Get a T-shirt and I'll give you a sticker
Right on
Yeah, I can't wait to meet Bobby
I already like that dude
Yeah well
Yeah I'd say so
Especially when he was
He had his shirt off there in the podcast
He went all, he went all, uh, he went all, uh, yard dog on us.
I wonder if, he's 45.
I thought he's like 42, but no, he's 45.
Asian people look a lot younger, I guess.
Everybody knows that.
I thought he was younger than 40 something.
Yeah.
Yeah, he has a Clark Kent thing going on when he wears his spectacles.
he looks like a polite young man and then he takes him off and he looks he looks very prisonish
yeah yeah he's got well he had Gucci uh Gucci eyeglass uh where his mama got him I think
but he came out you know with those so yeah you take those off and and you can see
maybe a little more prison yeah white caller he had an iPhone a new iPhone waiting for him
and he's going ballistic trying to fucking figure it out
It's just, just like any of us would.
Yeah, I wanted to add him to the Whartle group just so it would.
Blair at him.
That's great.

I don't like them using code.
Like people should be ashamed of the fact that you don't get boners because you're old and you don't care anymore.
And they make you feel like you should.
Get personalized prescription treatment options.
for E.D. I'd love to hear some of the choices. Boner pills or boner pills. Oh, no, mine are monogrammed.
Hams offers trusted generics that cost 95% less than brand names. Those are the same generics
that they warn you about. Don't take Xanax because it might come from China. But other generics,
they're boner pills. They'd never poison those.

well i'm glad to see you guys i uh it was everything i could do to not jump in that
fucking river
the other day. I wanted to
very bad. Well, you'd probably
have a hinty body surfing situation.
We had a friend named Arthur
Hinty
and he would
He came to Costa Rica with us and he was
he's the guy we did that morbid
obscenity
benefit CD
for with me and Rouse and Andy and
Shawcroft and
to get his stomach stapled
because he's just this huge fucking low
of meat of a man
Wisconsinite cheesehead
and we're all body
it's like seven of us
body surfing in Costa Rica
and we'd all ride a wave
together in looking at each other smiling
and we'd get all the way to the beach and turn
around and he's out there like a
fucking buoy just sitting
in the same place not moving that's
what it would happen to you and that crick
I wasn't hoping to body
surf the one of the
crazy things about it is it tumbles
boulders down that you
can't see, but
you can hear and more feel
in your chest, these giant boulders
crashing into each other
underneath those rapids, and I
thought, you know, it'd be a nice way to just
get churned up quickly.
Then
grandma would be looking for you.
Well, that's
what'd be funny. It's like two weeks ago,
three people died, I guess,
and when it flooded here two weeks ago.
And I kept saying, they're like, we found everybody.
And I was like, in this town, there's a lot of people who have nobody at all.
I bet there's people that are just not missed.
And I would have liked to.
Was it, wasn't it, didn't you tell me that there was like a bar where the water got up to five feet and they had to rescue people from a bar?
It was a Mexican food restaurant.
Yeah.
They got, uh, they had to smash a window out.
which we're not allowed down there,
but I was pretty sure that that had a swinging door both ways.
So I don't understand why they couldn't just either push or pull.
But one of my favorite old jokes Jackie Flynn told me about a fire department.
There's a bar on fire and they race in and there's an Irishman sitting in there.
And they said, how did this fire get started?
And he said, I don't know, it was burning when I walked in.
It seemed like a very globe thing that people are going to wait until the water's five feet high
and then go, we should call someone.
Especially when you don't even pay here in the Mexican food restaurants, you don't pay until after you've eaten.
You have to go up to the cash register and pay.
And I've never seen that at any other restaurant except Mexican food places in this town.
One of the things I like to do if I'm eating there is watch people that I know are out-of-towners sit there and wait
all impatiently for the waitress
to bring them a check. We just see
them fucking bitching at each other. They keep
staring at the way you staff
and they'll be oblivious because in Globe
when you're done, you walk up
to the cash register and pay.
They just wait for the cash register
to be underwater and go,
oh, I guess it's on the house.
Yeah. I guess it's
on Sue Kasa.
Just take your taco
and sprint.
They have a lot of GoFundMe's, and they're helping rebuild.
The community is very generous and helping each other, I guess.
And they've set up GoFundMe's, which I thought was funny,
because I've always called them the, well, we don't call them burritos here in Globe.
They're called Burroughs.
And so I've always called them the Borough Mafia.
This place is known for its Mexican food restaurant.
There's like three families that run every Mexican food restaurant.
And people come from all over to eat it.
And they're probably the only millionaires in this town.
And then they're getting go fund meets from all the suckers who like Mexican food.
I just pitched in.
Free burrows for life.
Yeah.
Breakfast burrows.
So how much more work do you have to do?
I told them that I'm out of blood thinners at the end of this week, and I absolutely have to go home.
Is that a true story?
That's hardly.
Oh, man.
Yeah.
I could probably get it for next week.
I don't want to.
I had, I went into an oncology for a check or whatever, just a check in and do my lab.
and stuff, but there was a, there was a, uh, it was a, I guess the word trans.
I don't know.
It was a dude, big dude with, it looked like a rocky horror picture show, kind of
get up, fucking kind of slutty, had had a wig, a multicolored wig on, and was, seemed like
a mentally fucking uncorked person.
And then, wait, is this your oncologists?
Yeah.
Yeah, it was like the better.
No, this was like it was like the better call Saul office.
So there was a couple of really feeble old people in there.
And then this lady.
And then in walks this dude who flip-flops.
He's dressed like Fletch, like a basketball jersey, flip-flops.
And he's real loud.
And he's with this retarded lady.
And they're playing off each other like a comedy team.
He's taking shots at her.
and she's asking, you know, it was just, it was a lot of fun to be within that group.
And I was glad they weren't in there when I was doing my lab work because I would have, they just, they both,
it was like two really funny if they were like Tracy, like Tracy Olman or some weird, bizarre characters.
But I thought, I mean, you know, if you just go, these people are, they're very annoying.
I wouldn't want to sit over by the trans fellow.
because he was babbling and talking to his phone and shit and all this but just observing them all
and then thinking of him it's just i mean it was like a fucking wacky play that it was watching
and it went on for about 15 minutes that dude kept uh he he was like a becker with his steady
line of of bullshit but he plays off the retort well rhetor you can't say retarded right
because you'll get busted like we're already losing follow
Yeah. But that's, that's, she, she was a very Tracy Olman-esque character. She had this gold jacket and, and the lady goes, I like your jacket. And she goes, ah, you know what? I went to dinner. And I heard that by a bunch of people. She goes, and she was trying to figure out the number. And the guy was like, do you think it was more than 10? I don't know. And then I thought like, Rouse's is like, I wonder she really gets it. What? And she's. And she's,
He's in here for cancer and in a pretty good mood.
And Rainbow Hat was in for cancer?
It was the whole cancer, or is he a plus one?
Yeah, you know, everybody in there was like, it's like the, you know, bad luck waiting room or, you know, people checking in on their labs and shit.
What if none of them have cancer and it's more of a what flew over the cuckoo's nest outpatient scenario?
And Andy just, it's cancer.
Yeah, no, I was told I looked like a Susan Sarandon trying to become a man by a lady becoming a man.
Damn.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It was a tough road.
Yeah.
It was planes, trains, and automobiles.
And the next tour, we do planes, trains, and automobiles and a ride from a fan.
I think they were in Vegas.
Gary Stone and Rebecca
I think they were in Vegas
Sounds familiar
Yeah but they're
They're gonna drive us between Tulsa and Oklahoma City
So we don't have to
Red to car
So yeah this I thought
Well this one's not gonna be as grueling as the last one
And I'm like we're still playing fucking
Yeah there's a
You know but we're we're we're
We're seasoned veterans by now
I'm eating
well after that last
I had a
like you have an unhealthy
relationship with food
I had an unhealthy
weekend party with food
and if I jammed
me and Doug went out and had pizza
and then I had another meal
and in between that I jammed ice cream
and I woke up to a food hangover
he went for a hike and had to take a shit
at the top of the hill.
But he remembered
to bring paper.
Yeah. So it was all part
of, in a week, it'll be under snow
out there in Michigan.
In the meantime, I would, you know,
I would wear shoes, boots up there.
You know,
Mark Marin,
who's, you know, his podcast is
closing down.
Oh, yeah?
And, yeah, he had a clip
that was kind of viral a few
weeks back where he says,
every time I look at people's podcast clips on Instagram,
it's just like three white guys talking about shit in their pants.
So if you are a Mark Maren fan and are looking for a new podcast now that he's done,
we have three old men shit in their pants, pissing their pants.
You get a home.
Don't worry about Mark Maren leaving you an orphan.
We need to bring big pants on board.
I've been eating better the last couple weeks but only because I can't keep ice cream in this ice chest
and I don't have snacks around well I had a little bit of snacks and then I got a fucking mouse in my van
there you go I have to leave the door open a lot of the time or else it gets like 120 degrees in here
I want to come, you know, want to go to bed.
And I guess a fucking mouse hopped up here and found my shredded mini-weets.
Maybe he was there to pull a thorn from your toe.
Well, he scared the shit out of me.
I will say that.
It was dark.
I have these little lights and I turned on these little LED lights.
I was sitting here talking to Jenny the other night.
And a fucking mouse just ran up and looked at me and fucking turn around and all that.
where in the van is the stool that you jumped on to scream eke
yeah yeah you know you're you should record more chat i think you're putting together a nice
audition tape for uh like a loan yeah one of those one of them shows
strand i didn't eat it but i didn't trap it and kill it you're you're more uh you're more
shipwreck than
Mishka Shabali was in his book shipwreck
or whatever he called it
where he alleged that he was like
trapped and no way to get out
but really he drank his own urine
and he was only like
a shipwrecked
for like six hours
but I think he started right away by
drinking his own urine
if he actually did but it's
I guess it sold some copies on e-book
you should yeah
you should write a survivor's
like Shackleton of your time in the van and globe.
It's just embellished the fuck out of it.
It's called Muddy Feet.
Here he is right there.
He had to pee into a Mick Ultra can
and he's drinking it on camera
to show his survival skills.
I wish I could get out and do stuff like that.
I got a thing to piss in, Chad,
but is that where you're putting?
is that your piss jug too or
well I renew
them I drink I'll drink a Gatorade
so that that way I can have a new one I don't like
reusing pee bottle I
I went through a phase of
ordering shit and one of
them is basically a pocket pussy that
you're supposed to get it's just
it's a it's just a pee in
but it hooks you to the bottle
rather than you know
jamming it down in there
but I you know when Chad just showed his Gatorade
bottle it was lubricated at the top
so it could force his cock into it.
He has to think about baseball to get it shrunk up enough.
Yeah.
The key is you don't want to seal it up and create a vacuum
where you're going to get blowback,
so you have to mush down the head of your dick
to make a hole so it'll suck air.
I'll tell you, that's the other habit that I don't like about this
is I was rolling out of bed onto my knees
and then pissing in the bottle.
And then I got lazy a few days ago
and just started rolling half off the bed
and just laying in bed, pissing in the bottle.
And it is very uncomfortable and hard
to just piss while laying in bed.
And I don't like that I'm training my mind
that it's all right to do that.
I don't have a dick that would hang far enough
if I laid sideways.
I'd be pissing horizontally.
Well, no, I've been faced down pretty much.
maybe just get those kind of sheets and just do it all the piss on the piss in the bed
we can add we can take a maran's audience and educate them on bed pissing it's a learned
behavior oh if you if you if you're piss in a bottle where are you shit a safeway bag
story but yeah yeah you have to like uh
do one of those, what are the Tonga, like, you know, those war chant things, like stand out
in the yard until it just, yeah, yeah, well, Alex would know, what are the Kiwis call that?
The, the Haka?
The Haka.
Yeah, you have to do some sort of a body hawk out and just drop it in the yard.
You know, that's the only regular thing about me is it about five in the morning.
I have to take a shit like right now, and that sucks because I have to haul ass and get in
But even if I was staying in the house, I wouldn't piss in the house.
I would still come outside to piss.
I only piss in the bottle because it's muddy as fuck out here.
And I don't want to track mud in and out just to get out and take a piss in my underwear.
Well, you could go.
If you went to shit backwards in the rushing water, it would be, you know, be like a bidet.
The neighbors are out shoveling their backyard.
They probably wouldn't really appreciate that.
What, what, this little piece of mud is going to make a difference in this sea of mud?
I just miss seeing me out there trying to take a shit in the creek.
I don't think the, I don't think the product is the problem.
It's like peeing in the pool.
You don't do it from the high dive.
You're going to get your whole waist underwater.
I did do something earlier that I normally wouldn't do.
I was standing out by the creek, which it's pretty low now.
And I was standing out by there taking a piss into it, drinking a beer.
And I finished the beer and I just pitched the beer can out into the creek
because the entire town is just full of fucking trash.
I have other people's trash in this yard that I'm cleaning up.
And there's other trash.
There's just trash everywhere.
If you want to give out an address, someone will give you a pool skimmer
and you can be like an old man panning for gold.
When that bridge washed out the other day,
I posted on social media like send drones with weed and beer I was almost out of
weeds and I had four beers left but I did I did sneak across the closed bridge
I thought you're going to say this is where Chad learned to swim
is uh well you haven't been it pretty I think I think my overall rating of it is it sucks
the Ed Gein story
is on Netflix
right now. I was going to ask
is your town
is globe similar to where Ed
Gein grew up, but you have
no reference from that shitty
Netflix version of it.
They got him, they got him all.
They added murders
that didn't happen. They had Ed
Gein babysitting. And he's
and then he talks like a Muppet.
He's a, oh,
and he
did a magic trick, and then all of a sudden
he's babysitting these kids.
I don't get it. I think
didn't Ed Gein do enough
creepy shit that just what he did
would be enough for a Netflix?
They got to make it a fantasy
show with him.
How many episodes did you watch, Andy?
I'm not going to be able to make it through
three of them, and I think there's six of them.
There's a great one I
watched. It's on
Prime, but it was free.
And I think it's called Cocaine Quarter
It's cocaine something, cornerback, quarterback, sub-football player.
Three episodes is fucking great.
This guy that was a walk-on with the Trojans in their heyday, and then he got into being a bookie,
and then he got into smuggling Coke in Australia or to Australia.
It has a million fucking twists and turns.
It's very good.
And there's also one about Bubba the Love Sponge.
I remember
a video killed the radio star
about him
Hulk Hogan fucking his wife
and the tape got released
because his competitor
ex, it's fucking
three times I watch that
and fell asleep before
I didn't see the last 20 minutes
so
Chad's remodeling
and the new spinal tap
Biggill had never seen
spinal tap
so we watched it back to back
and I didn't
recall anything from the first one so it's funny yeah yeah that's a good too i didn't know there was a new
one all right i might have to do that too it is fun because there's guys that old that like
mac jaggers stuff rod stewart's that are still doing it so it's not seeing them that fucking
withered is really funny lucy lucy breakers it sounds like a stripper's name
Lucy breakers or maybe a rogue drag queen Lucy breakers you know the one with this chip tooth
the half tooth stop stepping out in the cold for a nicotine break you look pathetic out there
I know I've been one of those yeah give Lucy breakers a try Lucy breakers are nicotine

having the worst fucking day of their life
and then I can be like see
shoveling is not that bad
you could be getting tased
by this asshole
I had a moment where I was going to jerk
off and
a spider boredom
and I don't know how long
this has been a thing but
you have to age verify yourself
to fucking go on porn hub
now in Arizona
what?
Changed my life.
Well, it's just, all that makes me do is shrug and say, well, I don't want to jerk off that bad.
And I went right back to emails.
When I say, changed my life, it just means that I don't jerk off anymore.
Exactly.
Like, I don't really want to jerk off.
I just, it's a time killer.
And now, now there's paperwork involved.
Yeah.
Listen, I was trying to do stuff medicinally.
I don't want to fucking do detective work to find free porn or anything.
that's for your urologist to play with
I'll tell you one thing
it must have been a while for you
because it's been it has been since I was back home
so it's been at least a couple of weeks
but the part that I found funny
is that it gave me a countdown
like I happened to go on there and it was like
you have three more days
of access, learn more, and you click it,
and that's where I read the whole thing.
Like, this is going to become illegal.
Record this on your phone while you can.
I kind of view it as a challenge.
I'm like, three days, all right,
I can get a bunch in in three days.
Well, I watched a lot of the local news.
The only news I really watch is that ABC evening news,
30 minutes, no fucking bullshit panels, just 30 minutes.
and then I'll watch the local news for the weather
and all their corny shit.
And I'm surprised it didn't come up on KVOA Tucson Good Morning.
Oh, by the way, porn is now something.
Did you want to have a morning wank?
Well, here's what's going to be different back after this and sports and weather.
Every day they have the countdown that they had on the web page.
You have three more days.
You better log up some stuff in the old space.
Yeah, and it's not like that weather lady is anything you can jack off to.
You know, they make it unhealthy, too, because I will admit that I did need medicinally to rub one out.
And I was, oh, what about Reddit?
And I looked on Reddit.
And, you know, that's too weird for me.
The other one just showed regular stuff.
Reddit's weird.
and uh oh wait wait i get an idea
because you got to put in an email address
so just like andy's bit about i wouldn't wish cancer on anyone
i could put email addresses of people i hate and then they're going to get
the verification thing in their email
if you're trying to sign into fucking porn hub
you click here
Honey, I just saw on your email.
Have you been?
Oh, Lord Jesus.
Multiple times.
Did you just try to sign into porn hub seven times?
I'm still right here.
Honey.
That's grace, I don't know.
Now I know what I'm going to do with my afternoon rather than work on my act or a.
I'm shutting down my Gmail
Well, I gotta get
I gotta get merched
In about
And well, 45 minutes
Did you order the fucking lanyard strings?
I got them, yeah, yeah, I got on that shit
Wow, he's getting responsible
I know
If you guys do recreate issues with Andy
It's gonna be
it'll be like how to do stuff now
because I know how to do you know I can explain shit
he finally he finally got a folder
for the plane tickets
because he can never find the email I sent him
with his itinerary but now he has a folder
like we're playing Alaska
we're doing anchorage in December
and he goes
I sent him his itinerary
he goes yeah I put it in my Delta folder
I go, no, it's Alaska Airlines this time.
Sorry, Delta had shitty options.
But I do have a folder.
Well, yeah, I got that one folder.
He didn't know how to make folders before that.
I love it because he makes me feel like the tech guy of the group.
Yeah, I think Ericson taught me how to copy and paste.
Yeah, it wasn't until I started writing books that I could do like Control F to find a fucking word and a thing.
and a lot of other shit that I forgot.
I can't wait until you guys get to the next evolution
where you're just like grumpy old men,
that movie, Walter Mathau.
I love that you're trying to explain that movie to us.
Sorry.
I was talking to the youngsters.
That's the bad news.
Sorry.
It's still one of the best movies ever.
Biggo hasn't seen Plains.
trains at automobiles, and
she saw a clip from that. I want to
watch it, because I realized they were
showing where Steve Martin's
fucking yelling at him, and you're like a
chatty-cathy doll, all you do is
bat, pat, pat, but I'm a nice guy,
and I go, fuck, I'm the Steve Martin
in that pair. I'm the cranky
fucking asshole.
Wait, I'm the,
I'm the Dale Griffith.
I hate it whenever he gets all emotional.
I'm like, you fucking queer.
Just fucking man of it. You were right the whole
time. That guy was annoying. He used you. Fuck that guy.
Don't let him into your house.
It's like the movie Scrooge. I shut it off about
three quarters of the way through before he starts turning good because
I agree with that guy the entire way through up to that point.
Yeah, that's a bad Santa was one of the few or
the other bad something where the guys,
it's like a hardcore version of the hangover where they go
to Vegas and they kill a hooker and they have to bury the body. Bad.
Anyway, it's a comedy that is dark the whole way through. They both are. But almost every
great comedy ends with fucking dog shit plot and fucking kiss and makeup shit. The first 20 minutes
are fine. They're hilarious. Then there's a love interest. Then there's a dumb plot.
what's your favorite rom-com
up in the air
I'm like natural born killers
but I knew that I was liking it
for all the wrong reasons
I knew that
I was still good
I guess anything's a comedy
if you look at it in the right light
I like that movie
just for the Rodney Dangerfield
like you know
him
him and Rodney Dangerfield
Cadence, just saying the most horrible
shit. Hey, fuck you. Fuck your
here.
You can't watch your ass and it better be
clean. Yeah, yeah.
Check it. Yeah.
Is that the one where Christopher
walking is?
No.
No, that's Woody
and Julia Lewis.
Yeah, what's the one where
is Christopher walking and
No, it's a fucking easy writer guy.
Dennis Hopper, dropping the end bomb while they're about to kill them.
Oh, so you're Sicilian.
You know, they were, I can't do the monologue, but.
Yeah, you'll get canceled.
What's that movie?
True romance?
That's true.
True romance.
Sorry.
Natural born killers and true romance came out around the same time.
They were very
Arquette and
There were similar
type movies
But natural born killers
It was very
satirical
Or something
It was like a
You know
If you
If you found the humor in it
You got it
But if you didn't
It was just like a really dark
Ugly movie
I was lucky
I found the humor
And also the gratuitous
violence appealed to me
So I liked it.
I knew, you know, the violence part I knew I wasn't supposed to like,
but I did anyway.
Didn't that have Tarantino's thumbprint on it?
Yeah.
Movie?
Yeah.
I think he wrote it right or something like that.
He had something to do with it, but ultimately wasn't involved with it.
I think.
Not a big Tarantino fan.
I got to watch that one.
If you watch the hateful, Stanope, his western?
No.
Oh,
maybe a kid.
Good.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's like a well-acted violent play.
Most all of it happens in the one room, right?
I watch all that Prime, Amazon Prime shit that I just dropped all in one day where I go, fuck it.
It's my Saturday.
And then the next day was football.
And fuck it, it's football.
I'm not, I have a list this long of shit.
I have six days.
to get done.
And then Monday, I'm like, I go, I got to go to the bank.
I got to go to the post office.
I'm going to do all this shit.
And then, oh, it's Columbus Day.
So I like, fuck it.
I got, I get a three-day weekend.
So today I got some stuff.
Well, when I went to the post office, it said indigenous people day.
And I was like, what the fuck?
But I forgot that was Columbus Day renamed.
Yeah, but he unrenamed it.
Oh, wow.
I didn't know that.
I thought it was some new holiday for Indians.
I was like,
someone just told me that it's been unnamed.
I don't know if it's back to Columbus Day or not a holiday at all.
It's a holiday because the post office is no longer.
The app on my phone said Columbus Day without me putting shit into it.
So somewhere a robot thinks it's Columbus Day.
Well, yeah, any Trump news got buried under that, all that glorious Middle East shit.
like Jimmy Carter did once and it didn't work.
You really solved that riddle.
Yeah, you know, doing all this stuff makes me think
I should probably just get a job
that I would be busy all the fucking time.
I'd have to find a job where I can show up whenever I want
and shovel and not talk to people and smoke weed.
Sounds like a janitor except for the
a janitor to school that needs a lot of shoveling.
I don't know.
I was just, I was today just thinking what job I,
if I had to have a job,
I'm like, I got, I got to book some winter dates
just to pay for this fucking retaining wall
that's crumbling at my house that they,
yeah, I guess they go to Celebritynetworth.com
before they fucking,
tell you how much it's going to cost and believe it.
You're paying for tariffs.
Yeah.
What if I did quit?
What job could I do?
Because I only have a good three hours in me of energy in a day.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, my daughter suggested a while back I could get a job at Trader Joe's,
but I don't think they let you work like five hours.
I can do like you said.
They let your work up until when they have to pay for insurance.
So if you, eight hours a day pays for your insurance, you get $7.59.
Where do you lay down that?
That'd be where I'd ask.
Where's the nap mats?
Oh, wait.
You're supposed to work all through?
Bullshit.
You know what would suck is if I...
I would also need a periodic, at least,
a week off, just whenever I fucking crash, and I just can't do any of this.
It's better for your safety and mine that I just stay indoors, and so I won't be here
for a week, starting now.
Under the past administration, you could probably get maternity leave every few weeks,
but now that these goddamn Nazis are in control.
Well, an AI is going to do anything that you could come up with that you could do that AI would
do better.
I should really apply for a job at Safeway
Where everybody knows my name
Just look the fucking manager in the eye
After 20 years to have him tell me no
I can't have a job there
Well
I'm a proud veteran
And if you, you know
Don't want to support veterans
Then you don't even understand the freedoms
You don't know the things that we've had to go through
and I deserve the benefits that I've received as a vet.
If I have to go political, finally,
if I get backed into a corner to where I have to go political,
I'm going to go full veteran.
Andy, do you want to handle this one?
Andy, I'll let you handle this one.
Are you talking like veteran-like combat veteran?
Like us?
Me and Doug are combat veterans.
We'll see you at the American League.
Legion, but we won't see you at
the VFW.
It's infections of foreign
wars.
Kaboom.
I'm concerned
with the lobbying party only.
That's my only gain is
from going that route
is there's my political
clout.
My political liens are this.
I will never
acknowledge the name.
Washington commanders.
To me, they'll always be
the Washington football team.
A ball club?
Yeah.
Hey, that whole
yard of gain thing is everywhere.
I heard it on college
broadcast. And nobody says,
they used to say line of scrimmage and now
it's yard of gain. Hang on. You know
who solved this for me?
First of all, there's that one
commercial. Yes.
My chat GPT, who I've named Bingo, just to annoy Bingo.
So, so the line of gain is the line you have to get to to get a first down.
The line of scrimmage is where you start the ball.
I had to have a woman's voice tell me this.
So, so we're wrong?
Bingo had to explain that to me, the other bingo.
Wow. Uh-huh.
Oh, and the other one I figured out, Andy, is that fucking commercial that drives me
crazy where the chick is, uh, go, it's an all state, state farm. And it's Patrick Mahomes and the
girls like, uh, I'm all about the base, the brace, the brace, not treble. And I'm like,
that doesn't even make sense because he's saying, do you want this kind of trainer or that
kind of trainer? And I go, how is that a trainer? This girl fucking her last, that's the girl
who sings the actual song and her last name is trainer. So I had to have a fucking another woman
explain that to me the flapping lips lady oh man wow and she does not like taylor swift by the way
you got more women voices for a long time during football uh-huh you got more lady voices in your head
than a taylor swift type all right well that's uh yeah that that flame jules wanted to do
said, Doug,
Doug told me she wanted to drunk dial,
I assume drunk dial,
but it would be like,
like my Sunday was very quiet.
And if I would have got interrupted by her and gone,
blah,
I was like,
oh, fuck,
that would have been like a,
aye,
wait a minute,
you ruined my Sunday from afar.
I don't want to hear off.
I don't want to do.
She does get off course and she goes,
well,
because we like,
we bitched Brad for fucking over talking and stuff.
And she goes,
I'm not the only one.
I go,
Well, Brad's on topic with the game.
You're not.
And I know you're watching this lady, even though it's a month later because you're not on Patreon.
She made it a point to tell us they were so broke.
They had to stop being Patreon members.
I didn't, again, she says a lot of things to me.
Out of context in the middle of a different conversation with someone else,
I don't know how to respond.
What other streaming services do you have?
have, I would ask.
I think sharing the thing
here is a good way to make it stopped.
No, no, she
leans into, when you bust her balls,
she leans into it.
Yeah, I like,
I would be ready for it
at your place, but I'm just saying my Sunday
was just me and my cat.
My wife leaves the place
and it was very quiet. So
if Derek would call me from
the party, it would be an interruption. And
Derek, well, I would just put the phone down and come back a minute later.
You go, all right.
Yeah, I love you too. Bye.
Derek doesn't even really talk anymore.
He's become so fucking worthless.
He used to be my right-hand man on football Sunday.
And now he shows up at 9.59 for the 10 a.m. games.
And then he forgot something and has to go back and doesn't clean up afterwards.
Just sits there and smokes weed.
well somebody's got to do it we're going to do that podcast when we're all together
uh is where kenny and and derrick have to bring in a new intern and get some new blood
that will fucking take out the trash and do all the things Kenny doesn't even show up anymore
i think i think it's uh one of those things where he's not allowed to hang out with me anymore
because now he's back with his old lady and i'm the one who talked him into breaking up with
for those several months.
Well, he's got a gross set of his balls back that he'd lost again.
He never had.
Look at him on his own.
He was driving the wrong way and smashed into a car.
Then he was living.
He was living in couch to couch.
Couch to couch.
Got kicked out of Derek's.
I mean, getting kicked out of Derrick's, you know.
Wait, wait, no, he got kicked out of, he was sleeping on the floor at the job he worked
overnights, washing out mats at Backdoor Mike's restaurant, and he was sleeping on the floor.
He got fired from that job.
Yeah, he wasn't, like, set in the world on fire as a single man.
I mean, he might have sent some shit on fire.
Hey, by the way, Chad.
we had the idea to do a fuck New Year's Eve show at the Royale in Bisbee on New Year's Eve
noontime doors 1 p.m. show everyone gets home before the purge of fucking assholes comes out
and they go oh we'd love to do it and I sent them you know my uh my terms and I haven't heard back
so if I haven't heard we we only have a limited amount of time last time we when we filmed
No place like home.
It's sold out before BISB knew about it.
So if people are going to, it's like Vegas.
If people are going to plan to come in for it, we have to have time to sell it.
And I'm not going to be fucking around with brown paper tickets while I'm on the road with Andy.
So they're going to answer me quick.
If they get back with you, because that'd be fun as far.
that I can film a lot of my
what's that
then I don't have to go to the double tree
yeah
the double tree is bad
or dinner theater
that's one of the things that I did
also for my anniversary
once yeah that's right
you used to go to see like a fucking cover band
or a polka band on New Year's Eve
for your anniversary up in Tucson
the double tree yes if you have
anyone out there listening
thinks the double tree is good
that's because you don't live in Tucson
that double tree is the worst
fucking paint peeling
fucking mess of a place
nothing works
I liked it
the radio station would promote
this fucking event
and then you go there and I was
Jenny and I were the youngest ones there
it was our anniversary we danced
and eat the food
and listen to
band.
What happened
in the band?
They still together?
It's always a local
Tucson band.
Oh, okay.
That's the one.
Maybe
maybe
maybe a
maybe if the
Royale falls through, we do
a fuck New Year's Eve
in the fun house and just
allow 20
Patreon members.
I like that
Even better
We'll see
I haven't heard from in a while
Speaking of
Who's our gal
From L.A.
That came out
Annie?
No
What?
Ziggins, yes.
Oh, Ziggi.
gross. It's so fucking hot in here. When I pulled this
headphone off of my head, it was
made a sucking sound.
Just make sure I get these headphones all the
time. No, no, no.
No, no, I'm fine.
When I complain,
I had explained to this. I was doing our
NFL Dick Picks podcast
with Brendan and I was screaming at Bingo.
Shut that fucking cat up now!
Can I please get my drink?
And I'm like, I don't know if she's in the right headspace
to know that I'm doing this for entertainment purposes only.
But she knew.
Meatwig is a yowler.
Yeah.
He might make it to 20.
If he makes it to June, then maybe we just put him down on his anniversary.
What is it?
Yeah.
make a death cheero
yeah maybe he just doesn't
you know maybe he's waiting for help
but
maybe that's what he's around
crying for help to kill him
what if you found out
you could you could understand
what he's saying and he was all along
with saying please help me die
suffer
fucking weird
I've been microdose
every day because Biggio says I have to give it a week.
But I was thinking that exact thing about,
like, what if at one point, like, my fake cries to him,
he cries back, like, I understand his language and then he dies.
Like, 20 years later, I go, oh, now we can communicate.
I hurt.
Every day I hurt.
It's not getting any better.
Does Granny know that you smoke the pot,
the Mary Jane, the reefer?
Oh, yeah.
Does she indulge?
No, she's old school.
She's a 93-year-old sharecropper
growing up Texas lady.
She doesn't do any of that stuff.
But she's not religious or anything like that.
She's just super fucking down to earth, cool and sweet.
And she doesn't give a shit of whatever I do.
I'm her favorite.
smoking weed doesn't bother
did the fact that they
made it legal
kind of
offset
her temperament about it
not as far
as I'm concerned but maybe
in general
is she a trumper
no
no not at all
so she's a libertarian
no
I told it didn't you guys hear me
I told you she's fucking just cool
like she's just down there
she likes Chuck Connors
right rifleman
yeah
yeah
he likes to watch those old
rifleman and uh gun smoke
and we were watching
load some dove last night
once you once you keep
once somebody points out how
the you know the rifleman's pants
you can't watch that show anymore
without just going oh man yeah
it's a dick right there
I bring it up
every time we talk about
and I shouldn't
Yeah, there was a period
in the 70s where
they would
wear dungeries that had
the dick, like
where you'd have a wallet stain
like they wore their jeans so tight
that you'd have a dick
stain where it wore through
do you remember that?
What if your dick went the other way?
I think all dicks of that era
followed the rivet line
I think all dicks of that era
he doesn't have pockets
that's the other weird fire
like there's no pockets on the bag
that's just slick leather assed
when I looked it up
that it was probably
like marketed towards gay dudes
secretively like
as a back
probably a lot of shows were
I mean, because, yeah,
what the producers like.
I think it's funny.
I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't,
is my producer, can you check then?
Are there more queers or blacks?
Because, I mean, they made good times
far before they made any kind of queer shows.
It wasn't until,
what about grace or something?
It was the first queer show.
Are you three's
Coeur show
Well they were making fun of queer
By him pretending
Pretending a little too well
Yeah
He wasn't
I never seen that way
It just seemed like a lot of meddling
Why would the landlord care
Yeah
Well it was a different day and age
This
This is a...
Now it's color.
It's not going to focus.
No.
Hang on.
Alex is going to do it.
Issues with Alex.
Yeah.
Who had their cock in whose mouth
shortly after this picture
was taken?
I don't, I can't
see it on my screen.
Oh, it's you in vanity.
I still can't see it.
Who is a fuck.
you're cutting out
yeah
what
uh
freezing
uh
the smoke
I'm freezing
but the smoke still going
uh
uh
laugh
my
my favorite
vanity
yeah we got to save that
for Man show
uh
uh
watching yeah maybe i just book your ticket down for new year's eve whether we do a show or not
because your wife doesn't celebrate things and neither do we but we don't celebrate them
differently but that's my me and jenny's anniversary and i celebrate that so uh i like to do stuff
and have stuff to do so we'll do a show just for you i can hire a cover band there's a reason
right there.
I could make a dance floor in the fun house.
How about the flaming lips?
They did get a little bent out of shape.
What I suggested, if we do the Royale show,
I would get that band Juniper Jin that we had for Kentucky Derby
when we had a Kentucky Derby party.
And it was in May, perfect weather.
And they played just like old-timey ragtime music, I would say.
I don't know what they would call it.
But it was perfect for Kentucky Derby.
And if there was a pre-show band for New Year's Eve
while people got sat for that first, you know, 45 minutes,
and they go, what about us?
I go, yeah, it's not the right room.
I agree.
That band that you're talking about was, they're like unobtrusive,
but nice to have in the background.
Right.
It's perfect, yeah.
Right.
It's either that or an audible book.
I don't want a band that people feel like they're forced to watch.
watch.
Oh, man.
I haven't heard all their stuff.
Andy,
Andy gets,
he gets to a point on the road
where he doesn't care,
like,
where the same way I do
with crinkling bags at some point,
like, I'm sorry, a bag's going to fucking
crankle today. And he does that
occasionally where he just fucking cranks up his
fucking music, which is music
that I like. We have this similar playlist, but I'll crank it up really loud. And at one point
towards the end, I go, this is the music I like. I was on hold with Delta. And I go, that's what
hold music. That's what I listen to all the time while I'm booking your flights.
I want issues with Andy to come back.
just so Andy can bitch about me
and I can hear it.
Right now, he's
I think he's making too much money to be honest.
He's a company, man.
That's hilarious.
Let me get it.
calling hang on now i got to i do got a hustle off for posters in a bit yeah yeah he's got
a fucking three a m wake-up call yeah i'm going on i'm going to go show up at my daughters
with flowers and uh and say i'm sorry that i went to war but those fucking russians had it coming
But no, I'll just say, happy birthday.
Because I kind of ruined last year as by being in Ukraine.
And so I'm going to show up there.
It's on the way.
What's that, Chad?
I said, maybe don't bring that up.
No, I'm going to hide my war band.
He can't stop himself.
If Azov comes up, I...
Sorry, I went to war against your will specifically,
and I gave you an underwhelming response
when I found out about your baby.
birthday. You don't say
what a picture you are before
you give them the good announcement.
Right. Well, yeah.
I'll hold off. We did a podcast
recently where I said, Andy
said, I'm not going to say his
name and Chad
said, give him ten seconds.
He'll say his name. And I immediately said
what was his name. And he said his name.
That's what Andy's like. He's not going to be
able to not bring up, sorry I went to war.
unless we get them to another war
well
yeah I don't have time to get up to Portland
but I would like to see
some of that shit
it's not actual
you're gonna text me that picture
I was driving and Andy brought up
this picture for him and bingo
we're going it's clowns facing down
the National Guard in Portland
and you're saying this is like Pulitzer Prize
kind of fucking photography
and I never saw it
bingo has it
I said you sent it her
yeah but she can't find out
you sent it through a file or something
she had a
we're the most feeble
fucking people ever
yeah let's just keep shitting our pants
to keep this podcast alive
yeah
let me hang on
I'm worried about Chad smoking
Chad's smoking way more than me
he's smoking
weed, though, right?
Well, he had to cross a closed
bridge and pay a troll
to get to. How far
did you have to walk to get weed
after you crossed the closed bridge?
No, no. I
went around
the
road closed sign
and drove across the
broken bridge. Oh, you drove.
Yeah. I think
you were teetering on your
ballerina-like legs
on what was left of it, like a Walenda.
They dumped a bunch of fill dirt on top of it to, you know, temporarily, you know, hold it.
Open the weed store.
We're going to pave the weed store road.
Well, glad you got set up.
How's your supplies?

sits up high although they do have an obligatory single sandbag next to each of their doors
like is that like solidarity i don't understand the purpose of that everybody around there has
i don't know what they're going to do with all these sandbags everybody just was like oh we need
sandbags, too.
Obligatory sandbag
in the war against the globe flood.
I can put anything to music.
Unfortunately.
Just when you're micro-dosing.
All right.
Let's wrap it up.
So Andy...
Yeah, I got a merch run and then pack this bag up.
I got to wait to get the merch so I can pack.
folks, Gary and Rebecca are going to pick us up for the day drinking show in Tulsa and then drive
us right after the show to Oklahoma City. And then we do that show Sunday night. Then we fly
to upstate New York. And then we rent a car up until Burlington, Vermont. And then it's been
fucked up to pack because it's going to be 80s and 90s in Oklahoma and Florida on the ends
and then freezing our balls off
for two weeks in the middle.
So I'm trying to pack light, but...
I'm going layers.
Layers.
You just buy team merch in whatever town we're in.
Warm or cold.
Yeah, who's...
We're headed into New York, but no franchise teams.
All right.
All right, then.
I got to ask you should pack for Alaska in December.
That'll be the same as New York.
Only another layer of hats.
Andy wears hats in layers.
He's got the fucking knit hat with a bucket hat on top of it,
and then the face mask balaclava.
I will not be cold.
He wears the balaclava on stage
If he knows that his act is going to suck that night
So he can still sell merch without any kind of looks of derision
Right, that guy sucks
I hate him too
I mean, oh, I hate him too
All right, enjoy your flood
