I remember I saw you the first time. Remember I was like, I go, hold it, I go,
Starting point is 00:00:31 what the fuck? I guess you're so good. You go, you go, yeah, you go, it's about time you fucking noticed. Cause I was like, I didn't, I don't pay attention. I see him on stage. No Brian doesn't think of anything. No, no.
Starting point is 00:00:44 I watch him murder and I was just like, oh my God. Like we guys young men at this point are almost like this was 10 years ago. Okay. No. Yeah. It was probably.
Starting point is 00:00:56 I remember I had Brian. I had this storytelling show. What's up by the way? Good to see you guys. Thanks for having me on. I'm excited for your special by the way. Thanks pal. I appreciate it.
Starting point is 00:01:04 Me being me was the first one and now we have our last one. Sounds like Bruce. Sounds like Bruce. Yeah. Springsteen? No. So I do a joke about getting a wrong number, which, you know, if you guys did any research
Starting point is 00:01:15 for this, you'd know it because it's gotten over 200 million views. Jesus. On many platforms. So like to watch it. Yeah. Well, you know. So anyway, I was just like, I had done it on Lafactory, had it on theirs,
Starting point is 00:01:28 and it kind of did well, and then Conan, I did it on there, and it like did well on Reddit, went to number one on Reddit, and then people started like claiming that I was stealing for myself, because I looked different each one. Oh, really? So I just opened the special on that joke,
Starting point is 00:01:42 like, clearly, yeah. Okay, this is my joke. This is me. Yeah, that's great. And that sounds like Bruce. So, love it, man. Yeah, early on in my, when I was doing standup, I was like four years in, I started a storytelling show at the improv.
Starting point is 00:01:55 And the whole point was, hey, I'm gonna have four comics on. I'm gonna throw out topics, and they're gonna share, like, stories like your first car, like, all these different things. It was kind of like the basis of what the crab fees came from. So I'm doing that and I was like, hey, it's gonna be real stories and you know, Callan. I mean, there's nothing real.
Starting point is 00:02:13 He's got no depth. So I was like, five eyes. No, so then I would be like, so if you get any job guys and Brian's like, what if I was a cop, what if I was a cop, and I was in the street and I'm just sitting there going, nah, this isn't what we're doing. That's a show.
Starting point is 00:02:27 But the thing is, he's charismatic. People love that. I didn't realize I sabotaged the whole fight. It's not a improv. It wasn't a point. I didn't know after it was all comedy. And it was Steve Burn, Brian Callan, Morgan Murphy, and Brody Stevens.
Starting point is 00:02:40 And AFK. Great. And after the show, people had a good time, and my agents were there, and Brian's like, that was great, huh? I go, you know, dude, you did exactly what I told you not to do. I asked you to not. I didn't know what you were going to do.
Starting point is 00:02:53 I never even invited that. I probably didn't even listen to you. I was just like, what are you going to say? I'm like, I don't really say. Well, I got up there and I was like, a lot of guys, I remember one thing I did, like I saw you looking at me, I knew I kind of fucked up,
Starting point is 00:03:04 and in the middle, I go, you know, thing I did, like I saw you looking at me, I knew I kind of fucked up, cause in the middle I go, you know, for me obviously, obviously I bench press, but most of you are forgetting this area of the chest, so you'll always see me on a peck deck. I won't even step in with Jim without a peck deck. Jay, Jay, who's a pro, was just like, you know dude,
Starting point is 00:03:19 like this is not the, you know how to do all your fucking bits. I'm trying to like, you know what's going on? You know like when, I remember, never forget I had a friend who had like a needing disorder, you know how to ignore your fucking pants. I'm crying to like, you know what's going on? You know like when I remember, never forget I had a friend who had like a needing disorder, you know, and I said to my mom, I go, hey, listen, when you see her, don't,
Starting point is 00:03:32 when people have eating disorders, you never comment about their physical appearance. You just don't say anything. I go, so don't she's like, I know Jason. As soon as my friend comes, gets out of the car, we're sitting in the front, and the front comes down the driver, she's like, oh, you look lovely!
Starting point is 00:03:46 And I'm just like, what are you doing? Do we make hope with this bitch? Which you did not just tell, you know, like when there are certain people, like when they like, okay, don't do this, don't do this, don't down, go, no, no! Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's not a matter of mouth. That's me, that's me, that's me.
Starting point is 00:03:59 Don't say the end word. Well, that's like, was it Jeremiah Watkins has that, stayed up on the spot, and let's say, do not do material. Like this is four new bits, you're gonna find new bits, do not do new material. Sure enough, every show I've ever been on, people before you like, do you think I've heard you do that bit?
Starting point is 00:04:15 What do you do? Oh no, not to me like me, Dermybe in the back, he's like, I hear him do that bit in the main room. Oh yeah, yeah. I never, I love that show just because I want to get on there and say nothing. Yeah. Throw something at me and then there's some stress. Yeah, that's the best. I think people get in scare You know, of course, you'll silence especially yeah, especially even though you forget silence means they're listening
Starting point is 00:04:36 That's all that means but also that that crowd knows that's that oh my god. Yeah, they're therefore. Yeah, that's what it is So they all good man. Well, people like to see who works shit that shit out. Like they like to see you. Like now I do with my stand up. I always do a section where I go, let's do some in.

Starting point is 00:05:43 I do now. Really? Yeah, now that I look at my track record, you know what I mean? You're like, oh, heist will girlfriend, Pisces, Crash and Burn, college girlfriend, Crash and Burn. Girlfriend, when I was living in Venice, Crash and Burn, ex-wife, Crash and Burn, mother, that's all you need to know. All you need to know.
Starting point is 00:06:01 If your mom was this, don't go forward anywhere else. Is that right? That's my mom's into that shit all that I know I was in high school she might what's on my scorpions like run oh my alright mom yeah well yeah I heard that scorpio's and Pisces are very sexual and I I will say but I don't think there's any science to it but I was a fat girl who was super sexual and she was a Scorpio and then she was talking to her friend and she was like yeah we're Scorpio's resexion and I go okay then and now when I when I hear a woman is Scorpio I get turned on you know what none of these things matter because that's like saying
Starting point is 00:06:35 oh yeah we're Scorpio's we're we're circular and then but these people might be square so there it doesn't matter how sexual you are if you don't fit with the other the other sign It doesn't matter. I feel like girls just saying that cuz I'm reason be sleuths I'm a scorpion to my nature. I don't have to stop all the day, right? Or you can't or you can't do you want a scorpion or you can't I'll move you into my house You know what I'm saying? I'm gonna pay your bills. I don't want to fucking virgin pouring. I want to sketch your sexual past. And dude, your age, yeah. I'll take it right again.
Starting point is 00:07:08 Well, you can't go in your virgins. You know what I mean? It's probably, yeah, it's probably not gonna be a good one. Unless you're the dolly long. Well, when you're 56, you don't even look at younger women. You don't even look at them. You don't throw them because it's, you get to a point where, you know, you cancel.
Starting point is 00:07:23 Well, is that too? Well, no, but you get to a certain point when you're a certain age where you can't cancel. Well, that too. Well, nobody, you get to a certain point when you a certain age where you realize they stop looking at you that way. Like it happened at, right at 50, I think. Oh, you're the chick that used to be hot, I need the chunky chick. You're walking by the construction
Starting point is 00:07:36 where there's no more tack calls. You're an old man. There are women that like holes are men, but for the most part, you're not. Oh, you're daddy now. Yeah. For the young girls, you're dad. Yeah, but it might be grandpa. You know, like you get to a point where it was,
Starting point is 00:07:47 no, but you just gotta do the math, okay? Like at 56, young, first of all, you're married anyway. So it's a move point. It was hypothetical. You know what I mean? If you're gonna look hypothetically, if you're older, you gotta have, they call it dating age appropriate, you know what I mean? So like I'm 47 I'm 47 you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:08:09 So some people might 10 years younger than me practically. Yeah, some people might think The same age but keep going what's that we look the same age keep going. I mean do come on Don't do them like that put a ball hat on yet. Maybe in in at night like at a ball game good angle yeah yeah I'll play right now if I look the way you look at your age I'm gonna be a lucky man you know what I mean yeah for 56 years good he's a good looking good good he's always been a good shape
Starting point is 00:08:39 I do my enough to do my best yeah maybe too skinny for me I love too scary but um but you're the only single one here. Is the single life now weird for you? It's not weird. Are you jumping on dating apps? I'm on one app, yeah. I do one app. How's that life? It's different, you know?
Starting point is 00:08:54 It's different. First of all, I have two kids. I have them 50% of the time, right? So when I have them in three years, I've got a babysitter 10 times in three years because I'm like, I want to be there, I want to be there for bed. I don't only be able to be able at 9.30 to go in
Starting point is 00:09:09 and just see what's going on. Where are they sleeping? What do they got? And then I get my little nudge and talk some shit to see what they'll do, you know? So it's like, you got to, someone's got to be cool to the fact you have kids. And it's like, their schedule needs a lineup
Starting point is 00:09:24 of your schedule. I also have to work have kids. And it's like, their schedule needs a lineup of your schedule. I also have to work. You know, it's a tricky situation. But if you're dating age appropriate, I'm sure they might have kids and they should be used to it. Yeah, there's a lot of women I've dated with kids. I've found that divorced women, they're like Scorpio. They're like, let's get down.
Starting point is 00:09:39 Yeah. Let's figure it out. What's the time? When I'll be there, let's get down. Yeah. You know what I mean? So I think for me, age appropriate needs to be at least, they have to be at least like 34. Anything younger than that is just like, what do you find? Thirty's fine.
Starting point is 00:09:54 No, it's not for me. I mean, what are you gonna have in common with like a 25 here? Well, that would, well, that's nothing. Like what the fuck are you talking about? Nothing, they need to be the most like evolved human being. And but normally when you're someone that 25's into someone that 47, there's something.
Starting point is 00:10:08 Daddy, she's something going on. That's not as uncommon as you think. I just think I don't know that guy. Like you don't want to be the guy. Like it's more like you don't want to be that guy. So it's just, it's just, unless you're a Leonardo Caprio. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:22 Even I see him, I'm not like, it's free to be a Leonardo Caprio. It's free to be on my Capriol. No, Capriol. It's gonna take a unique person or woman. Real outlier. To be even at like 32 to want to be with someone who's in their mid 40s with kids. They're gonna have to be like a unique person. It's like, hey, I really don't want kids.
Starting point is 00:10:38 I think you're a great person and I'm evolved. Who knows, you know? I think it all just comes down to the person anyway. I do too. I think sometimes you take for the most part if you have a really fully realized person they can be 30 depends on how they live their life Yeah a lot of it's like if a woman's gone through a lot of shit had a job. She has a shit together That's what I'm saying. They have like this shit together. They have a career They know what they want to do you tell my different and they know who they are they don't want to play the game and they're
Starting point is 00:11:01 Emotionally evolved. Yeah, they also don't want to deal with younger men. Sometimes they prefer an older man. You see that, there's more stability. Yeah, for sure. I just can't imagine like you going on these dates off whatever app you're using, like coming up with date ideas and shit. Oh, I've always had, I'm a dad dude, I got great date ideas.
Starting point is 00:11:17 Usually it's, I don't like. I don't like even busters and shit. Give me an example of great idea. I just go to a nice restaurant, like I need to get to know someone, but then like a good second date for me is like, let's go to a play. It tells me early on, are you into art and culture?
Starting point is 00:11:30 Are you gonna wanna do that? Let's go to a museum. Those are the kind of things I like to get down on. That's great. And then, you know, there's only one woman I've dated for a long time throughout these three years, which was like nine months. And we would like, we would do like,
Starting point is 00:11:42 weekend trip to Oha, you know. It would be cool. We would go to cool places like explore together, go for bike rides, I got our bike from Mother's Day, you know. And Jay sounds like a good time. Jay sounds like a good time. It's not that hard. Let me just tell you one thing, if you're single out there, all women want is for you
Starting point is 00:11:56 to make a plan at a time and a date and tell them where to be. That's awesome. And be nice. Well, I mean, dude, that's, that's, that's given. You're old school boss.

Starting point is 00:15:09 Yeah. And by the way, that's a real thing. You grow up, if you're Irish in Boston, you grow up with a very, very clear sense of what is okay, what's not okay. What is allowed, what's not allowed, how a man behaves and how a man doesn't behave. Is it still that way in Boston? Fuck, yes.
Starting point is 00:15:29 In my Irish, she gets smack in the head. I mean, I would think. I really don't know. Tick-tock didn't ruin that. I mean, who knows? I don't, you know, my friends, everyone I grew up around, their kids are amazing kids. I can't get over how great my friends are.
Starting point is 00:15:42 Would you ever go back to Boston? I would love to, but it's probably not gonna happen at this point. But when you're divorced with kids, you know, it's like, I can't get over how great my friends. Would you ever go back to Boston? I would love to, but it's probably not gonna happen at this point. Yeah, but when you're divorced with kids, you know, it's like I wanna be close. I live eight minutes from my ex, you know, that's great. So like, I have her over for dinner, she comes over all the time, I have a key to her house,
Starting point is 00:15:56 you know what I mean, like it's- This is a weird segue to Boston, you see the new documentary on the Boston Bombers, on Netflix? Oh, it's good. I know my shit on that stuff. I love that stuff. Why is that? I watch on the marathon just happen today.
Starting point is 00:16:07 Yeah, the marathon's today. That's probably where they released it on Friday. The woman who won it? Is there a second marathon she's ever run? What? Jesus. She won it today. She's from Kenya.
Starting point is 00:16:17 Yeah. Well, she runs the 5,000 meter and this is the second marathon she's ever run. And it was like a small pack with a mile left and she just boop. So there's a highland area of Kenya. I think it's about five million people live, 5.5 million, or less. And that is where the people, there's a genetic anomaly in that group. They're good at running.
Starting point is 00:16:40 They're physically built, they can run farther than anybody. My son's pretty good at running. This guy was a cab driver. He was driving a cab within a year, he broke the world record, he'd never run before. He was Kenyan. He got out of his car and he just... Horrible cab driver, though.
Starting point is 00:16:55 Yeah, terrible cab driver. He took forever. Also, I don't, I, I, I, I, I, I was there, you have to be from Boston or to run the race. Oh, he, the best runner in Boston is. You know, you know, there was a woman who ran the Boston Marathon one year and she like dipped out at mile six,
Starting point is 00:17:09 hopped on the subway and came back in and won it. You know, yeah. Where are you from in Boston? Stoneham, Stoneham Mass, 15 minutes north. Yeah. That document, she's great, cause it has shit in there, cause it has like, like,
Starting point is 00:17:21 citizens in videos of this, like when they're in the shootout on the streets and what waterfront or watertown. Yeah, watertown. Yeah, watertown. Oh, well, one of them died because they're in a shootout. And they have the shootout, they're the footage of the shootout.
Starting point is 00:17:34 Bro, it's the cops shot over 200 bullets. They're the doc has actual footage of it. They're throwing bombs at the cops. That's why they gave them away. And they just thought it was two kids at stole a car because they jacked their car with a guy in it. Now he had stolen a car. They didn't know it was the Boston marathon bombers.
Starting point is 00:17:51 And then once they start throwing bombs at it, they're like, these are the fucking guys. So they're throwing the bombs. The younger brother gets in the car. His brother runs out of ammo, and I'll get to his brother in a second. His brother starts, and they have thawing videos, his brother just starts power walking towards the cops,
Starting point is 00:18:07 going, come on, come on, of course. They're like, get down, get down. The little brother gets in the car, runs his older brother over, kills him. Why? Just to get away. Because his brother was basically doing suicide by cop. His brother's like, fuck it, he's in the way, runs over him,
Starting point is 00:18:21 gets away, hides in a boat. Like a block away. Hides in a boat. Like a block away. Hides in a boat. But here's what's crazy. The older brother, he started being compromised, going back to Dagestan. And this is what's weird. There's a coach on this.
Starting point is 00:18:34 He's a Chenier Dagestanian. Dagestanian. But there's a coach on there in Boston. Because his older brother was a very good amateur boxer. His whole goal, his father, Brown America, to fight in the Olympics for America. But the Olympics changed the rules. The year it hasn't to do with him, but he thought it was racism towards Muslims. So that's when he became compromised. He's like, oh, the Olympic Committee hates Muslims. America hates
Starting point is 00:18:58 Muslims. No, dude, you have to be from America, born America, to fight for the US team. That's all it is. But he thought it was towards him, so that compromised him. But the coach is talking on there, and I'm watching him play like, I don't know that fucking guy from somewhere. I trained with him in Boston.
Starting point is 00:19:16 And I was there for the, I know. Yeah, I trained at his gym. Yeah. Where the coach? Where the coach? Oh my God. And then his coach, I think coach against me
Starting point is 00:19:24 when I fight Gabriel Gonzaga, because Gabriel trained in Boston. And I was like, that's how I fucking know that guy. I did, I performed at Auburn University the day of the bombing, the day of it. Really? And I did like, you know, I was doing an hour for these kids and after like 45 minutes,
Starting point is 00:19:38 I go, hey, do you guys just want to talk about what happened today? And like I sat on the road at the stage and just like, like, what are you feeling? Like, what are you going through? You know what's interesting? Like obviously it's American staple, the Boston Marathon's massive.
Starting point is 00:19:50 It's like, you know, as American as it gets, and Boston, you know, what it represents. But you know, four people died in that. You know, it's weird to me, like what we get, what the media gravitate towards, off they gravitate towards that. But it's like, you know, Louisville, Kentucky had two mass shootings.
Starting point is 00:20:06 More people died than that. Yeah. Yeah. You know, like the mass shooting in Chicago, you know, just today, what people can get shot and die than the boss of America. Now they're all important. It's just weird like this has a dog.
Starting point is 00:20:19 I see it's a good, you know, it's a nearer to people and run on. Well, when you look at it, it was terrorism, right? It was Muslim terrorism. It was terrorism. Yeah. And it's in my town to people who run on. Well, when you look at terrorism, right, it was Muslim terrorism versus... It was terrorism. And it's in my town got affected. One dude lost his leg. Oh, it's awful.
Starting point is 00:20:30 The great, the... Remember when Bill Marm, we were... Terrorism is after 9-11 and terrorism was the biggest thing. You know, I think it was politically correct on HBO. But he said something that was so true. He said, man, Americans, we're all worried about terrorism. It's definitely a problem, but that's not what's gonna kill you. What's gonna kill you probably, and I hate to tell you guys,
Starting point is 00:20:49 is your diet. All that corn syrup all day after? No, I was about a year later, but he said- Yeah, that's different. It was just like, the enemy is usually not as sexy. The enemy is pretty- Well, we can control that, right? This one's pretty, this one's pretty-
Starting point is 00:21:03 This is pretty scary, but that's scary, because we this we can't but that's scared because we can't control That's right. We can't control and fear cells, you know fear cells. Yes. Got me. Yeah To find everything got me. Yeah, that whole thing's interesting and then the little brother right he gets He gets apprehended after like five days one of the biggest man hunts in US history He gets apprehended. And the defense goes, well, he looked so much up to his older brother, like that was his idol, he was forced to do it. Boy, did they eat him alive? Because they have him send up, there's no one tell him to do,
Starting point is 00:21:35 he sits the backpack down next to a family with a kid, that kid dies, he's the eight-year-old kid, got blown up, and nobody told you to do that. Then they show him, on the dock. They show him after the bombing going like a 7-Eleven. He's like joking around like buying candy and fucking sodas. Like this kid's a fucking social path man. Hold up. Is there a kid now? He's still in jail. Oh he got outbright. Of course he's in fucking jail. He's the boss and marathon bomber. Yeah, he's on a maximum. I don't think there's a death penalty in Massachusetts.
Starting point is 00:22:00 Austin Marathon about it. Yeah, I do. Yeah, he's on a maximum, I don't think there's a death penalty in Massachusetts. Oh, see, but that's on the dock. It said he tried to appeal it because he got the, he got life sentence. They appealed it. I think they gave him the death penalty.
Starting point is 00:22:14 Hmm. I think. Okay, he got his own Wikipedia page. What's interesting about this kid's time? What's interesting about this kid too, super popular and like his friends, when they said it might be him, they're like, no, it's in our way.
Starting point is 00:22:28 Super popular, Captain the Wrestling team, like how does shit together, it was going to college. Like it was just a normal dude. Yeah, like super popular too. Damn. A plea deal fade when the government refused to rule out the possibly a death penalty.
Starting point is 00:22:44 Probably because his brother was like the mastermind. The charges of usage of a weapon master's structure was all due in death in addition to aiding, abandoning, eligible for the death penalty. Yeah, so yeah, I'm pretty sure he's getting the death penalty. It's crazy. Yeah, horrible thing. You got to like, yeah, the jury recommended death penalty.
Starting point is 00:23:03 You know, the court reversed the first circus decision reinstating the death penalty. You know, the court reversed the first circus decision, reinstating the death penalty. He's on death thrown out. Okay. And he's that, I'm pretty sure, is he stationed in Colorado, where, where God, he was at? He's in like, maximum security.
Starting point is 00:23:16 He's fucked. Damn man. Right for you. Yeah, Colorado, there you go. Those parents, they move your kids, they do everything for them. You're boxing, you're in the cabinet wrestling team. No, the parents weren't cool about it.
Starting point is 00:23:28 You don't know this. The parents weren't cool about it. They weren't? No, they're like, that's not our son. Those aren't, you know what I'm saying? Yeah, what Brian's saying is they went to this great extent to give these kids something, and this is what they turned into.
Starting point is 00:23:40 Yeah, that's what I mean. There's gotta be a gap there. But the gap, no, that's what the mom and dad said. So the dad was super strict on him because he wanted to fight for the Olympic team in the term professional. So his dad won be a boxer. They made it, you know, they may seem like America
Starting point is 00:23:55 was against him, so that compromised him. But it's weird because his dad escaped refugee. Like his grandpa was blown up and wore over there. And then his family escaped over there. Well, you see about those parents, you lose both your sons in one day. Like you lose them both. And you're probably take on the guilt of all those people that were affected by the bombing.
Starting point is 00:24:15 And then the, then the shrapnel effect of how it affects people around that community yet. Well, they even have no positive in them. They have the head Muslim guy on there and he's like, it's like it fucked us. He didn't say that, that's my words. But he was like it fucked the rest of the Muslim community
Starting point is 00:24:31 because we just got over 9.11. And when we, in that guy saying that, he was when I saw him like, please don't be Muslim. Dear God, please don't, and that kid would attend his church. Damn it. He would have said his mosque. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:42 Is that crazy? Yes. The biggest piece of shit is the older brother's girlfriend. Why? She knew about it. She refused to speak to the to help out the US government when they're on the run. They know she had she was aware of it and anything but they they couldn't Bring the charges on her biggest piece of shit. She's some American dumbass That's too bad Chill vibes though guys. I love that. I love what we're getting into. Yeah, so tell us what is that? That's too bad. Wow. Chill vibes though guys. I love that.
Starting point is 00:25:05 I love what we're getting into. Oh yeah, so tell us about your special. Yeah. So great. Yeah. Let's talk about it. Is that crazy? That documentary is fucking great though.
Starting point is 00:25:13 It's really, really good. Unbelievable. Are you in the shows right now? Sides. Blossom by the phone. No, I got into shrinking a little bit. I started shrinking. Have you guys watched that at all?
Starting point is 00:25:23 Uh-oh. No, but I heard about it. uh... harris and ford and all yes all that he plays it ashtag shrink yeah him and jason uh... seagull i never liked uh... i never liked shrink shows i don't know why this is different i don't know i think it's i like it uh... but there's nothing that i'm like crazy on right now did you see the one
Starting point is 00:25:43 with uh... what's the fucking face? He's in the anchor man. He's also grew. Oh, Steve Carell. Steve Carell, see him and he's a shrink and he's working on the serial killer. Yeah, I'm pretty sure. Yeah, I'm pretty sure.
Starting point is 00:26:00 Oh, it's good. Oh, it's fucking. I gotta see that. I love Steve Carell. It's great. What happened? Was it just a one off thing? Well, no's fucking it. I got to see that. I love these the way I was thinking. It's great. What happened? Was it just a one-off thing?
Starting point is 00:26:06 Well, no, I can't do a season two on it. Okay. You'll see the ending, but you can't do a season two. So it's got that kind of like a tradition, the pace. The pace. The pace. The idea that it's just like you want to see.
Starting point is 00:26:15 Well, yeah, he's like the head, like the best, you know, therapist in the town, the serial killer comes to him. But you can't tell him everything he's doing. He just wants to help him, and he makes a connection with him. And then he's like, in order for me to actually get help, I get to tell you that I'm a Ciaric killer. So he kidnapped him, put some of his base, but he's like, I'm gonna let you go
Starting point is 00:26:32 once you help me like figure my life out. Oh, wow, that's wild. And then he's killing people while he's helping him out. It's nuts. Steve Ciaric's cons is trying to get away. I listen. Yeah, I'll ruin it for you. No, I mean, if I want to see it.
Starting point is 00:26:42 I'm just gonna see it. I'm ready for me to see these things. No, I gotta do it. It's been out too long. No, I gotta see it though. I gotta see it, don't know. I'm ruining it for you. No, I just want to see it. It's a rainy opportunity for me to see these things. No, I gotta, it's been out too long. No, I gotta see it though. I gotta see it. No, I'm definitely gonna watch it. I need a show. I haven't had a chance.
Starting point is 00:26:51 But by the time I get my kids to bed, it's like, when they're finally asleep, it's like 8.30. And I usually go to bed by like 10.30. And I gotta like do some dishes or I gotta put the laundry on. So you have like one episode, maybe something? Maybe, you know what I mean? And then I get up in the morning and I'll like do my
Starting point is 00:27:07 meditation, get my day going, get them off to school. And then it's like, all right, let's get work going. You know what I mean? You do you meditate? Yeah, I do TM. Yeah, what does that mean? Was that trans, transidental meditation? What does that mean?
Starting point is 00:27:21 How do you, what it means? Well, TM is you basically you meditate twice a day, 20 minutes each time. And for me, it's giving your brain an opportunity to have its own thoughts and do whatever it wants for 20 minutes. You know, that's one of the greatest things I was able to teach my kids that I never knew.
Starting point is 00:27:36 My son said something to me one day and I go, listen, I go, one thing I want you both to understand, I go, your brain is separate from you. Your brain is its own thing. It's not you. Your brain can have thoughts. It doesn't mean those are your thoughts. That's your brain's thoughts.
Starting point is 00:27:50 I go, now, it's how you act upon what your brain thinks. That's good. That matters who you are. And then I explain to them, like, my kids know I meditate. They'll come in while I'm meditating. And I explain to them, I go, this is my opportunity to give my brain time to do what it wants so that I can focus when I need my brain. That's interesting.
Starting point is 00:28:08 I want to play this. I want to get your take on this. Keep talking. Keep talking. That's what that was it. I mean, do you want to do a follow-up question? I can talk for a friend of mine. I'm from Brant's cake.
Starting point is 00:28:17 Can we meditate for 20 minutes? No, I saw something I like just to destroy the bad shit. No, I saw something I like. Did I play that for you? That moochie thing. No moochie something I like that I play that for you that moogie thing No moogie moogie. Yeah, no who is he? I'm told to get taken by anything and it's a simple thing about that Is it a nap? No, no, he's a Vedanta teacher. He teaches it's really should you speak in English right now? Yeah Got a meditation with moogie moogaku
Starting point is 00:28:44 And I like it. Mugaku. I think the thing that's interesting about meditation is all different methods, is all different formulas, is all different. You know, I just, I like, you know, put it this way, I was a David Lynch fan and I'm like, he's huge into TM.
Starting point is 00:28:58 Seinfeld saw TM when he was 17. Worked out for him. Yeah. And so I just, I liked the premise behind it of like giving my brain an opportunity to do what my brain wants to do. It's tough to find 20 minutes with kids though. Nah, you can do it.
Starting point is 00:29:12 Just on all the shit you just told me you watched and the last, I don't know, 20 minutes in the morning, 20 minutes in the afternoon once you just make it a priority in your life. Well, most of it's on a flight or at night. Oh yeah, when I put this, it flights is easy. See, this is the thing, I was just on a flight and I just, you know what I do? I'm like, I wanna watch something I already know. That's my biggest problem.
Starting point is 00:29:32 I like the comfort of watching something I like. I'm similar, but if it like, I only watch like murder or crime shit. Like I love serial killer stuff. With the boss marathon, I know about it. So I'm the same one. I have a routine, I know the story. So even if I doze off, I can pick up, I know about it. So I'm the same way. I've routine, I know the story. So even if I doze off, I can pick up, I'm not lost.
Starting point is 00:29:49 Don't play that super boring thing. Couldn't find it. Thank God. No, it's not boring actually. No, it's interesting. It gives us the recap of it. Well, he says something to the effect of. It's Mugat.
Starting point is 00:29:59 Be a witness to stop trying to be a traffic policeman in your own mind. Just let it run and be a witness to it. Well, that's a giant part of most people nowadays in, you know, if you look at anything, anything in the addiction space, whether it's booze, drugs, sex, spending money, food, most people in which, in which is like why
Starting point is 00:30:22 that everyone could get to trophy idea is, is that like we don't allow ourselves nowadays enough time to sit in uncomfortable. We don't allow ourselves time to just have thoughts that might not agree with what we want. And I think a lot of times it's like people need to get comfortable with that, just like kids need to get comfortable with losing, they also need to get comfortable with the idea of things that aren't
Starting point is 00:30:42 just gonna be the best, that's why I can't stand dog owners nowadays. Remember when you were a kid, dogs weren't even allowed on a couch. Now people bring them everywhere, they sleep with losing, they also need to get comfortable with the idea of things that aren't just gonna be the best. That's why I can't stand dog owners nowadays. Remember when you were a kid, dogs weren't even allowed on a couch. Now people bring them everywhere, they sleep with them, it's like, hey, you don't need to get love from an animal 24 hours a day. My sister's dog, if you weren't holding it,
Starting point is 00:30:56 I'd be like, who, who, who, who, who, who, who, what did you do to this poor animal? Yeah. You gotta believe that code to get help, 24, yeah. It's a good point. Yeah, that's very true Yeah, but I think that what I'm getting better at is getting very like so no matter what's going on right stress anger Exiting whatever might be I'm getting very very good it literally kind of just step back and watching it getting really interested
Starting point is 00:31:19 Like I'll literally interpret the raw data of it So I go like I'll go deeply into what's it's actually doing physical by body. And when you do that, what's fascinating is it goes away. Like you actually, you're acknowledging it. Well, I'm also just a witness to it. So after a while, you start to realize that your life in many ways, like this is profound, but think about it.
Starting point is 00:31:43 And this is kind of how you can meditate when you're going through your life your life is basically a movie there's somebody watching this and it's not you that the most profound question somebody asked I think with Sam Harris who said but it's a fidante question where are you do this exercise where are you right now like where are you watching me from? Think about that, but really think about it. What do you mean? Where do you start and where do you end? You are you behind your face?
Starting point is 00:32:12 Say you're watching me, right? Yeah, you know what's a great point? Cause I love where you're going with this because I've often said like, as I'm sitting here looking at you right now, I'm like what does he see in, what are you looking at? I don't know what my face looks right now. I know what yours looks like,
Starting point is 00:32:23 but I don't know what you're looking back at me. And when I walk into a room of people, I never take the time because you're in the present and I'm looking out, what is everyone seeing at me? You know what I mean? Especially since you can't see. What are they seeing you from? I see from right here, this is where I'm seeing it.
Starting point is 00:32:39 Yeah, but that's, is that where you are? I'm like present right now. I've read this great thing that people, you know, 80, I think it's something like 85% of your brain lives in nostalgia. It lives in the past. But I saw this great Alan Watts quote the other day that there's no past, there's no future,
Starting point is 00:32:53 there's only right, this second, this second is the only thing that exists. All that happened, all that, it hasn't happened. Yeah, that's right. This is it. Anxiety, you build so much of it up. That's why I love the idea of you just sit back and can watch your own life because you don't so often don't.
Starting point is 00:33:08 Well, your brain, what I think is interesting is your brain can actually be a witness to everything you're going through. So you can go, be going through the craziest shit. Your brain, you can watch, there's a part of your brain that can watch anything that's going on with you. You're the pain you're in, you could be on fire and your brain can be watching it. So when you see those monks that
Starting point is 00:33:29 put themselves on fire and protest and they don't make a sound, they just roll over and die, they have literally detached from what you would consider yourself and they're able to watch themselves burns. That's insane. That's another level. It's another level. Yeah, it's like 200 other levels. It's like 200 other levels. It's insane. That's another level. It's another level. It's like to one of them.
Starting point is 00:33:47 To put themselves on fire. Well, that would be because it's the secret. It's the secret. But everybody watched that and what was fascinating was they went, that guy didn't move. He didn't scream. He just expired and fell over like the mother fuck the war to himself. He was watching himself. And the war can be what he goes. But I'm talking about it. I'm talking about it. That reminded me of something I was trying to think
Starting point is 00:34:12 of what the fuck. You can't stop wars anyway, bro. No, no can go. In 20, in 2022, Russia was like, yo, we're gonna go bomb this country, we're gonna go and we're gonna do this. And the whole world was like, man, I guess we'll just watch. They don't want to get involved. Yeah, no, but it's just like it's crazy I mean, we are involved the question is well, when do we want to get involved? Oh, we'll get involved later
Starting point is 00:34:33 And we'll just get involved we're involved more than we think Yeah, that's a whole another road and are we losing or are we winning who did the word? I mean did you see a thing? I sent to their to our group chat. Yeah Tell the what you said. Right? Yeah. It was pretty interesting. Wait, I just remembered what I wanted.
Starting point is 00:34:51 Free the recap, Branson attacks us. Oh, oh, here's what's cool. Did you see Ethan Hawke when Steve Colbert asked to go, Ethan Hawke, what happens when we die? It's his question. It was a good question. He was, what happens when we die? Bring out Ethan Hawks answer. It's pretty cool.
Starting point is 00:35:07 It was awesome. I would say, yeah, I definitely saw it. I fucking love you. Do you do in the robot voice? No, it's like you go, Ethan Hawks, who I've been a fan of for a long time. I'll just play the audio. Yeah, that's the short one. You can eat the dog. Yeah. What do you think happens when we die? Um, you ready?
Starting point is 00:35:30 I don't think we die. I don't think that we have an understanding of the divine concept of time. I don't know, I don't think we're anymore capable of understanding. It's on time. I don't know, I don't think we're anymore capable of understanding. It's on the late show. I think something much bigger is going on than we're aware of in our daily routines. So I don't think I have the intelligence or the DNA makeup to ask for a question.
Starting point is 00:36:00 Now real quick, I thought you were saying Stephen Hawk. Stephen Hawk. No, no, Ethan Hawk, you know the actor, yeah, okay. Stephen. Stephen Hawk. No, no, no, Ethan Hawk. You know the actor, you know, okay? Stephen Colbert. He could purge seven bitch. No, but the thing, I thought you were talking about Stephen Hawkins. That's why I said, did you do in the robot voice?
Starting point is 00:36:12 Like, no. I thought you were talking about Stephen Hawkins. There he is. Because he gets out the same shit. That's what Stephen Hawkins is. I don't think physicists come any closer than that, you know, than... Then Ethan Hawk? Yeah, I don't.
Starting point is 00:36:23 The guy from purge? I don't. I guy from Perch? I don't. I think the point is that the guy from Dead Poets is... I have a tagger. The guy from Training. I have a tagger. The guy from The Plane.
Starting point is 00:36:31 Yeah. Yesterday. But I take, as theoretical mathematician, who answered one of the great theorems that, like, one of the questions of the centuries, like a mathematical question. His name is, I did a podcast with him. It was like, I couldn't understand.
Starting point is 00:36:43 He goes, well, we mathematicians and physicists don't believe there's actually a thing called time. I know what? He goes, it's a relationship between two mathematical bodies, but there's not time the way you would think is like you get older, it's not what's going on. Care to expand, and then you went into it. You can't, I mean, did you ever do senior advanced math
Starting point is 00:37:03 in high school? I mean, how far did you get in math? The more numbers stopped coming to a correct number that continued, I was like, I'm out. So I can do it. So that Russian guy, when the fields metal and math, he goes, they're like, how should we teach math? He goes, well, the way you guys think of math,
Starting point is 00:37:19 what you think of math is be like, the way your taught math in school would be like, we're gonna teach you art. And the way you're gonna teach art is you're gonna paint this fence over and over again. You're like, I don't like painting a fence over and over again. It's fucking bullshit.
Starting point is 00:37:32 That's exactly how they teach math. He goes, math has nothing to do with that. That's interesting. Yeah, he goes, it has everything to do with the world of forms. It's the most beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, right? Didn't you do a debate with Alex Jones this past weekend? Yes, I was, how'd you know that? Yeah, I was, this past week? Yes, I was.
Starting point is 00:37:45 How'd you know that? Yeah, I was, I was, I was, I was a real boyfriend. Right, it was me, Alex Jones. Fuck, I know. You did most of the bonus? He's in the sake of the podcast. I did, but I like to be dramatic, because I ha-
Starting point is 00:37:55 The good question. I had, I had, I had Destiny on one side of me who is the streamer, the left wing streamer, who's really popular, very smart, keeps the right, very honest. Shit. No guy. Oh, definitely.
Starting point is 00:38:09 Yeah, Destiny's Stephen, but he is streaming name is Destiny. Smart, smart, smart guy. Only 34, too. Oh yeah, dude, and he- Oh no, he looks smart. And we'll take it to you. By the way, he and Alex Jones, I had to get, and there's a thing about it because I had to get in the middle of them.
Starting point is 00:38:26 I was like, whoa, whoa, whoa, Alex, let him finish his set. That's a big dude. Alex over here, he's giant and he's over here. I agree with Alex in general. What was the biggest? He's just so theatrical. Well, that's what I'm talking about. He's speech is about, it was really, I was in over my head, bro.
Starting point is 00:38:41 I got there, they invited me. It was about free speech. Yeah, you've been in over your head here. Yeah, thank you in over my head, bro. I got there, they invited me. It was about free speech. Yeah, I mean, you've been in over here. Yeah, thank you. Thank you. I am. I'm always over here. See, you're not using your vision, you're using your brain.
Starting point is 00:38:52 Well, it was about the Twitter files, and it was about, but I had, there was a free speech constitutional lawyer. There's not a guy, these people live in Breedon, Alex Jones, Destiny. Well, you know, they release those Twitter leaks to get more, to cut down a more freedom of speech That's the agenda. I think Elon Musk wanted to release them to show you how bias this Organization was but keep going but what was fascinating was that the question came to this and I kind of learned something and Alex Jones
Starting point is 00:39:18 I got to say I got to say the man Said something that at the end of the day, so here's my question you guys. Is there any case to censor information, malinformation, disinformation? Yeah, I'll kinda domestic terrorism, they're trying to spread that, give information, recruit people. So you would censor that because we don't censor it necessarily.
Starting point is 00:39:42 We should don't. Okay, we should. If you can hurt Americans physically, we should censor it necessarily. We should. Okay, we should. If you can hurt Americans physically, we should sense that. What about racism? Yeah. But the problem, see, the my thing is, is racism can lead to that stuff, but if you can shut down domestic terrorism or even international terrorism, that's going to hurt Americans, we shouldn't allow them to have a platform.
Starting point is 00:40:03 When you come to racism, that opens up a whole lot of doors, because I think there's racism where it's clear as Americans, we shouldn't allow them to have a platform. When you come to race them, that opens up a whole lot of doors because I think there's racism where it's clear as day, using the other way. So let me ask you, let me raise the question. Yeah, I get that shit out of there. But at what point do you say, all right, well, we stop it here. So let me, let me, let me, let me, let me,
Starting point is 00:40:18 let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let We everybody agreed on that panel that anything illegal any illegal is it should not be allowed right so with Citing by the doxing people
Starting point is 00:40:38 So but but any illegal child pornography doxing people that's up so Alex Jones is like any that's up illegal I'm talking about racism. I'm talking about any of this stuff. I'm talking about any ideology What would you make it would you censor it would you not? Alex said it definitely said there should be at least a a Body a governing body at the companies and with the government that Alex said Alex said absolutely not okay said that and so then i said to all of this panel because i was in over my head i said
Starting point is 00:41:14 the meat i was just there i mean i was with these people for these people live in read the stuff yeah i know and i said well here's my question if you have an election and somebody's very good at planning a story and they are able to sway the vote at a key time in the election. Like Trump and Russia. Yes, whatever it might be.
Starting point is 00:41:37 What do we do about that? And Alex Jones said, you let the people decide. And he said, you let everything fly and less it's illegal you let everything on the internet because what happens is he we will all are figured out to be careful what we will get and then it will spawn an industry of of people we trust the generalist to verify or not to agree with that that to me is where i came down to and the you you're giving way too much
Starting point is 00:42:07 You're assuming that there's people just smart enough to do that. What do you think the whole there's Country's found on that concept? I'm not saying that this isn't right. I'm just saying like Assuming there's so many dumb people out there that are just looking for a story that aren't gonna investigate further And who do you trust anymore for the news? I don't know. Well, that's what that is. That's what it's about, right? It's right to the top where you'd say we know of our fact. If it comes from this, you know, this company, that's what it's about.
Starting point is 00:42:32 That's what you, but what is, yeah, maybe someone's got to go back to the top. So now there's not a, where do you go now? I see an end. Yeah, I get the fuck out of Fox. No way. We know they're both compromised. Yeah, of course. I don't know where you turn.
Starting point is 00:42:45 Well, you'd have to have someone come out and create a business out of it. You know what would happen is Fox, for example, I'll give you an example, with this whole, it's a minion thing. They're in deep shit because they, They're in a suit, right? And what happens is people go, hold on.
Starting point is 00:42:59 Now that you've been sued, you're going over process and discover we get your emails, see your phone, stuff, everything. So now, text, So now it turns out you guys hate Trump. You guys thought he was full of shit. The campaign official Trump's campaign official was like the audit looked pretty close to the count. We're like, oh, wait a minute, you were a Trump campaign official. You were you on Fox were peddling this and you didn't believe it yourself
Starting point is 00:43:25 so what happens is their market share goes I don't know now advertise guys do us where they make billions of dollars a year advertise jump off that's why transparency's important but scene is doing the same for us they are so if you're on the left you want to see that price for how are there how are their ratings doing CNN they had a dick but where can you go where you gonna have thrown in in the middle? Well, so I think you know where you go. Crazy enough. People like Russell Brand, Joe Rogan, that's where the best. Yeah, and that's what I'm saying is that if you allow the marketplace to work, you will
Starting point is 00:43:56 find people and because over time, you get fooled. But then he just recommended it. It shouldn't be up to Russell Brand who is a comedic actor. Should it be up now? But it's not. That's not what he wants to do either. It's not up to Joe Rogan to give you the news up to Russell Brand who was a comedic actor. Should be else now, but it's not that's not what he wants to do either It's not up to Joe Rogan to give you the news. Maybe Russell Brand. But we do it. It's not it's up to Rogan I think mainstream media for the most part you can make the argument for the most part is gonna get a lot of facts right not interpretation But facts. No, I do not not what comes upon this is because when you say mainstream media me like CBS
Starting point is 00:44:22 This is see the compromise. I'll play this for you. This is great This is this is from back. It's so my kids is a Republican congressman, okay? And he's not a guy I necessarily I don't know much about him at all But but this is a guy who's been in Congress for he's been elected four times. He's been there for you know So he's an entrenched congressman you see him on C-Span all the time, okay? He's as deep a Washington bureaucrat as possible. Listen to what this motherfucker says. This is my fourth term, and I'm tired of the way this place works.
Starting point is 00:44:55 I think it's deeply corrupt. I think the lobbyists are on the show most of the times. I think people are more interested in servicing their PAC fundraiser than they are the needs of their constituents. And it's a grift game. And the way that what facilitates that grift game is an entire sophisticated structure that ensures that no one's really responsible for the legislating. If we had to take individual votes on individual departments and authorizations and bills and
Starting point is 00:45:21 spending, then we would probably be held to account to a greater degree by the people in this country. But instead what you get is every year or so, some multi-thousand page bill that you get a day, day, and a half to read, and the whole deal is thumbs-up or thumbs-down on the whole thing. And then you're left with the decision of voting for a bunch of crap you don't agree with, or leaving out the widows and the orphans and veterans and the military and things that every American would care about. And we had to force upon the system a better way to deal with legislating as an enterprise. And that had features in policy, features in personnel and features in procedure, and that's what we're working through.
Starting point is 00:46:06 Yeah, it's also like duh, right? Right, but it's interesting that somebody in the system is calling out themselves. And he won't win that. He'll be ostracized for that. He'll be ostracized for that. I don't think so. He'll win on that.
Starting point is 00:46:19 Yeah, because everybody gets to that. Everybody goes, yeah. Yeah, but I feel like, because like, where do you get your news from? Like, if you wanna like read about whatever it is. I don't. You just don't, you stop. I just, I've just been, in the last three years
Starting point is 00:46:33 to be straight up with you, I've been focused on making sure my kids are seen and heard and loved and cared for and I get my sanity and get my life in order. So, to me to give a fuck, I mean, bro, I'll be straight up. I've gone to Iraq and performed for the troops. I've done it in Kuwait. I've done it in Qatar.
Starting point is 00:46:49 And I do it because I'm like, oh, I think this is great for the troops, but I think it's fucking horseshit and I don't like any of it. And I look at our politics and government and everyone I know is in like your vote counts. And I'm just like, I just don't think it does. It's so fucking tied up and so much horseshit that I'm just like, you know what I'd much rather do?
Starting point is 00:47:07 I'd much rather just take my kids to a park and when then they go to bed, I'm gonna do the laundry and I'm gonna make sure clothes are done and then I'm gonna try and figure out jokes to make people laugh, because all of this shit just seems so instrumental and out of control. I do that, I do that and I want to do that.
Starting point is 00:47:21 To the force and back to the past. Problem is it comes to you brother. I know, I would love, you know, I'm just not as informed as I could be, you know what I mean. Problem is it comes to you brother. I know I would love you know I'm just not as informed as I as I could be you know they might get it I get it. I get it because you don't it's exhausting It's yet if you get too deep into it's exhausting well So you realize how little much you can do yeah, you've so much although I got to say Austin for example is a hotbed for generally like just
Starting point is 00:47:42 Self-expression and Politics and you've got you've got anarchists you got for generally, like just self-expression and politics. You've got anarchists, you've got capitalists, you've got social, it's just like a whole group, you've got the comedy scene, it's a very, very vibrant scene right now. Oh yeah, of that. And it's America, it's America's best
Starting point is 00:47:57 because Americans are just having it out in conversation. Yeah, well yeah, you went there to host that. Well, there at the Minds Fest thing, the audience was like, yeah, another was like, they were like, they were Alex Jones fans, Destiny fans, then people just shaking their heads going, well, you know, it was like, it was just an American forum, because the crowd was getting into it. Alex Jones just say, say, say, ah, they're a bullshit. Yeah. And then I said, he's a
Starting point is 00:48:23 conspiracy. There's no, you're being a jerk. I'm like I'm just saying. I didn't mean I was just I was being. Oh, do not be dramatic. I think a lot of time too. It's whoever's going to scream the loudest and whoever's going to bark the biggest bark. They're going to get people to hear and they might not be the most informed and the most intelligent and the most. Yeah, well, that's all you have like Trump one, right?
Starting point is 00:48:41 What's that? That's all you have like Trump one. I mean, it might be, yeah. Yeah. What's that thing I'm rolling there had my Trump one, right? What's that? I thought you had my Trump one. He was a loudest. I mean, it might be, yeah. What's that thing on Rogan there, Chin? Oh. It's current events. Let's get into it.
Starting point is 00:48:52 Hey, B, let's take a little break. You like nuts in your mouth, don't you? I love nuts in my mouth. Do you like big juicy nuts? I do love big juicy nuts. Like the bigger the nut, the better in your mouth. Well, look, I'm a fan of almonds. I'm a fan of pistachios.
Starting point is 00:49:03 No, that's great. Yeah, but I like, I want something more buttery, I want something rounder, I want something with more of a full sexy ball. You talking about macadamia, though. I'm talking about macadamia. Put our Elon Musk. How are they so expensive?
Starting point is 00:49:15 They're so expensive, I can't afford macadamia. Unless I knew of a company that actually worked with Nihous farmers, to make the ice. You're talking about how some macadamia is. I'm talking about how some macadamia is. I'm talking about how some macadamia is. Bro, O.M. How much do we eat these? They're here in the studio all the time.
Starting point is 00:49:30 They didn't start off as a sponsor. Well, we eat these at a different day. These are dip macadamia nuts. This is the raspberry white chocolate, the chocolate's great, the regular macadamia nuts are great. I like these nuts in my mouth. Look, the only nuts I put in these lips.
Starting point is 00:49:43 Look at my skin, dude. I'm 75 years old. And if it wasn't for macadamia nuts, I wouldn't look 56. Here's the bottom line. You wanna look 20 years younger, you wanna live 20 years longer. They're the healthiest, most delicious nut in there. They are also the lowest carb of any popular nut.
Starting point is 00:49:59 33% less than almonds, 50% less than cashews. And they are arguably the best fat profile of any nut, like an avocado on steroids, okay? They have more mono saturated fat. I don't know what it means, but I know it's very healthy. That sounds good. No, listen, Macadamia nuts are known as the most expensive,
Starting point is 00:50:16 not an often hard to find, but House of Macadamia is changing that and bringing the power of the Macadamia to your doorstep. They got old egg and dorset. And fatty acids, dude. That supports natural collagen production, glucose metabolism, power of the macadamia to your doorstep. And fatty acids, dude, that supports natural collagen production, glucose metabolism,
Starting point is 00:50:28 and it reduces inflammation. They have thus been linked to longevity and fat loss. So shut up. They even have an amazing omega-6 to omega-3 ratio, which is three times better than that of pistachios. I don't know what Brian's saying. I'm bored as well as you guys are listening. List the taste delicious.
Starting point is 00:50:44 I know any of you. Listen, they taste delicious. I know any of them. They're good for you. House of Macadamia's has an amazing range of products. No added sugar or artificial ingredients from hand-sorted nuts with savory all natural flavors, even dipped in sugar-free chocolate. My favorite.

I need one. Okay, let's get into some current events, man.
Starting point is 00:52:12 Roger, you wanna think about that? So Joe had an issue of warning after an artificial intelligent podcast using his voice, using everything. It's literally like a two hour long Joe Rogan experience, all AI modeled. And he had to put out, you know, a statement saying, watch out for this, you know?
Starting point is 00:52:34 Yeah, it's insane. You know what, I know someone who, I think you know this person, made a stand-up comedy set by Tom Brady. You know that? No. Was that the rumors that Tom's doing standup? Because I was going, what do you say?
Starting point is 00:52:46 After that rumor came out, someone has an AI software that you know, created a standup, took, pushed into it all Tom Brady interviews and all these other like clips of him speaking. And it spit out an hour long standup except by Tom Brady and the person that I know that, listen to it it said it was good
Starting point is 00:53:06 I got but I reviewed them on God. Oh dude. It didn't even God It's you know reddit didn't go bad. That's just it's crazy what AI I mean, it's just insane Well, they even did it with the weekend and Drake They took you all the music they do they put it into chat GPT did a song. it's a banger. And then someone posted it and it's so good and they're like musicians or fucks. Let me hear it. Brian called this so early on too. It's gonna be like, you're gonna just have to make a decision
Starting point is 00:53:33 that if you wanna like, you know, did you hear there was that A, what was it? There was this like AI generated thing that had to hire someone. It had to do something. You know like, you know like when you go through at the end of signing up for something on whatever, Amazon, they're like, what are the traffic lights
Starting point is 00:53:49 and you have to click the traffic lights? You know, I mean, that's a blocker for like AI. And there was like some computer system that got to a block in this program that they tested it. And it went on Craig Fiverr, hired someone to go do the thing that they couldn't do as an AI and had a person do it and paid them so that the AI could get through it. You know, it's gonna be up to us to say, like,
Starting point is 00:54:09 oh yeah, we just want to either support, because you can just use AI to replace graphic designers if you wanted for your business, you know, and stuff like that. I mean, you have to call it, you have to call it. You have to call it writers. Oh yeah, there's already programs. There's already programs. So obviously I have to cut the sages in case you do. Yeah, we can play this.
Starting point is 00:54:30 It's pretty fun. Yeah, but you still need drinking the bottom line is here's the bottom line. I'm not only with whatever AI is going to create, but our entire society is so watered down by people just everything's watered through some filter thing that people are going to love this kind of stuff at the end of the day because they're just watered down anyway. What's this? This is the AI Joe Rogan?
Starting point is 00:54:54 So I just played just this a little bit of it. Joe Rogan, come on down, come on down! Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the very first time. That doesn't look like Rogan. Who the fuck is that? I doesn't look like Rogan. Who the fuck is that? I'm your host, Joe Rogan. Or at least that's what this AI model thinks I sound like. The cut of the edge AI language.
Starting point is 00:55:12 Sounds exactly like. I'll find so many. Yeah. I'd be like, hey, what's going on with Joe? I'm like, Joe, I knew he was a robot. I am. Sam's been in the forefront of the AI industry. Well, you get the point, pretty much.
Starting point is 00:55:23 Yeah, definitely doesn't look like Joe Rogan on that. Yeah, that's what they're talking about. The voice though, it's actually, no. It's pretty, yeah. You can imagine how good it's gonna be. Well, that's chat GBT4, now we are gonna be dealing with chat GBT100. That's what I was gonna say.
Starting point is 00:55:37 chat GBT10. Yeah, so when you have beyond musk and those people going, hey, we need a global pause. Like when you have, when have, there's so many, the technology is gonna either liberate us, kill us or both. Kill us. Yeah. I mean, put this way.
Starting point is 00:55:53 I mean, the day you like to go out for a hike in the woods and be around nature and like swim and a lake. Yes. You know, so it's just gonna come down to like, you're making a choice of like, what do you prefer? Do you prefer going to like live music? And I mean actual live music or do you want to just be a part of something because I guarantee you half of that fucking Drake song the people aren't into it because they're into the song they're into it because they're into this idea that I did it and then they're into the idea that
Starting point is 00:56:20 all these people are getting into it and they don't want to be left behind this idea and they feel like they're like, well I'll just, I'm gonna be part of this conversation. I think it's just pushed the near more making Americans especially softer. Because now like if we're gonna live in that VR world, this chat GPT world, not a real world, you can look after you want, you don't have to go to the gym anymore,
Starting point is 00:56:41 you can get a six pack just by creating an app. I know, you know, it makes everyone so. I think there's no consequences. I think the one thing that might save us a little bit, I don't know if you feel this way, but like when you're on YouTube, when you're on social, when you're on your phone too much, you just junk.
Starting point is 00:57:02 Your brain's like what? Your brain, I need real food, man. Your brain needs real food. Well, I need real food man. Your brain needs real food. Well yeah, but you guys are also born before the internet. I don't think so. I think even kids, because kids are actually shunning it.
Starting point is 00:57:12 A lot of kids are like, I can't do this. Like a lot of kids are aware. My daughter. The odds would beg the different be. Really? The stats would take completely different. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:21 It's what suits like through the fucking... But that's what I mean is like, kids are starting to even see, oh this is not serving me. This ultimately feels good, but it's not good for me. And I think that's what kind of happens. I also think it comes down to the same thing. It's like it's in your house. What are you doing in your house? How much are you connecting with your kids? What are you exposing your kids to? What do you allow them to watch? What do you, what do you, what are you exposing them to as a parent? What do you bring your kids to, what do you exposing them to as a parent? What do you bring your kids to? You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:57:48 But now you're talking like a dad. And what is the thing? Like the leading cosmetic social behavior is fatherlessness. The leading cause of suicide among kids is fatherlessness. Those kids never have a father. No, my kid done your life. I didn't have a dad. Do you have a dad? No, it's not pretty good. Yeah. Well, I mean, you know, that's why you're such a good dad. Well, well, I mean, you know. That's why you're such a good dad. Well, yeah, I mean, I lean into it hardcore. No, my kids don't have iPads.
Starting point is 00:58:09 No, my neither. I saw a study on like, we're getting rid of those. We never had them. They had them for a little bit. Just maybe when they were eating lunch, they'd watch, you know, whatever that bullshit stuff, like the kid stuff. And then when I saw the study,
Starting point is 00:58:22 there's extensive study over 10 years of kids that had iPads and kids that didn't. And the learning disabilities the kids had that had the iPad. And just show them. I can't on that work, I was like, oh, we're getting rid of them. I can't imagine anything good.
Starting point is 00:58:35 My son's nine, my daughter's seven. There's never had an iPad, never had an iPhone, never gone to a meal at a restaurant where they watch the phone ever. They have school computers, you know what I mean? That's different though, yeah, we do. Yeah, but those don't, it's not like they get to use those at home or maybe sometime over the weekend.
Starting point is 00:58:52 My son has a switch, he's only allowed to use it over the weekend and he's never using it for like, you know, hourly clips at any capacity. We go to museums, my kids draw, my daughter the other night, she was bedtime, she's like, she's all bummed out, I go, what's the matter? She goes, I wish I had had more time to draw. And I go, go and wake you up early.
Starting point is 00:59:12 And she goes, yes, get me up at five. I'm like, I ain't getting up at five. I go, I'm gonna get up to meditated six. I'll wake you up at 6.30. I usually have to wake them up at seven to go to school. So I go in at 6.30, I go, hey, she's like, I go, at 6.30, do you wanna do some art? She's like, cover off, add her desk, drawing.
Starting point is 00:59:30 My son walks to the kitchen, breakfast table, reading a book, he brushes his teeth, reading a book. They're the alert, no that's cool. And it's great. Yeah, no I love it. It's great. But that's the thing with iPads is it shuts down the creativity.
Starting point is 00:59:42 Really? So it's, when you're bored, when you're bored as a kid, and you're with your brother, like me and my brother, we either go outside, play sports, your force to be creative. You gotta come up with ideas. But you have an iPad, just steals all of that. Like we're not on your phone,
Starting point is 00:59:56 you're not coming up with new bits on the road. No, it's stealing your creativity. Camping, when we go camping, I'm like we're going camping this way and you're going to Joshua Tree. You just, wait, do you guys camp? No. I grew up camping. You go camping with your kids. You will see completely different human beings
Starting point is 01:00:12 than you see in their day-to-day life. Are you kidding? Yes, you will. And you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, Joshua Tree? Yeah, we're going to this weekend. We're going Friday, Saturday, Sunday, coming back. It's great. You do.
Starting point is 01:00:22 And you do. And they have like, heavens. Intense. Camping, dude. Not the first season time hair done. I'm gonna get my hair done. I'm gonna get my hair done. I'm gonna get my hair done. I'm gonna get my hair done. I'm gonna get my hair done. I'm gonna get my hair done. I'm gonna get my hair done. I'm gonna get my hair done.
Starting point is 01:00:29 I'm gonna get my hair done. I'm gonna get my hair done. I'm gonna get my hair done. I'm gonna get my hair done. I'm gonna get my hair done. I'm gonna get my hair done. I'm gonna get my hair done. I'm gonna get my hair done.
Starting point is 01:00:37 I'm gonna get my hair done. I'm gonna get my hair done. I'm gonna get my hair done. I'm gonna get my hair done. I'm gonna get my hair done. I'm gonna get my hair done. I'm gonna get my hair done. I'm gonna get my hair done. I'm gonna get my hair done. I'm gonna get my hair done. I'm gonna get my hair done. I'm gonna there, I got my daughter on my lap and we're looking up at the stars and at the time, this is in Bulton. Mars was out, Venus was out.
Starting point is 01:00:46 We saw the International Space Station go by, and I was like, guys, look at this. I go, look how big the moon is compared to us, and I look up the size of the moon, the size of the earth, and then how far it is, and then how big Jupiter is, and then how many earths fit inside Jupiter. Can you, can you, can you,
Starting point is 01:00:58 can you videotape your experience next time so me and my kids can watch it? No, and we go through all this, and then my daughter just goes, my daughter was five at the time. She was dead. I go watch you. This is, it's overwhelming me.
Starting point is 01:01:08 Like just even having that. And I think not only do we, like, I think sometimes like, you know, when you give kids space to just have thoughts on their own, just by like talking to them like as an adult, you'd be really surprised at like what their cable pole is. Not bad, but still all that. I've had fun with all that.
Starting point is 01:01:24 Still all that. Still all that. Damn. Yeah, it's that. Still all that. Still all that. Damn. Yeah, it's a disaster. What else you got, Jim? Let me just check, take talk for a second. Brian, I'm surprised. I feel like you would be more into this kind of stuff.
Starting point is 01:01:35 I am. I'm just not, I don't know. Do you guys play board games? I mean, I don't, I, um, well, you're a kid to older, so you may have missed that window. Yes, yes, yes. Chess, my son must have played chess and backgammon. Oh man, Elon with this BBC drill.
Starting point is 01:01:47 Yeah, this one. I threw it out, I said, you might as well set me to do this interview. This guy was not ready. He was, and he was like, well, he's like, well, give me an example. Oh, I can't. He's two million views.
Starting point is 01:01:57 This guy got roasted. I contributed to about 200,000. Oh, are you really, hold on a second, Brian. Are you really surprised that on Elon Musk's social media platform that he owns his video, got 52 million views? That's so mind blowing to you. 52 million though, that's how it works. I can't believe in my house.
Starting point is 01:02:15 My artwork is all over the wall. Yeah. But that's his favorite. That's it. But you know how this came to fruition is the BBC was like, we'd love to interview Elon Because they thought they were really like get one over on me goes open door policy and tell me when to come So the guy comes on announce is I want to speak to Elon they grew up dealing with you. I'll sit down with them
Starting point is 01:02:33 On prepare whatever is a guy. That's whatever you want to get the camera out Oh, this is good. That's how it went go ahead, Jim What's a long-ass interview, but oh just a clip on the on Twitter if him blown him up hold on Can we pause it? This is exactly the problem with where people are getting their news from. This is a clip from a clip and we're going to watch a short clip of it to then show how he got roasted sure dude. It's fine.
Starting point is 01:02:59 You're right. We're just sitting here. You go to Rogan and Russell Brandon. You go to these other people and all they're doing is getting a clip from a clip from a clip and then putting it in the platform that fits the show. Oh, no, I will say. I will say. I will say. I will say. The one part of the interview. Yeah, we don't have time though. They just show us a little bit. Show us a little bit. What are you, Russell? I've seen the whole thing. I've seen the whole thing. Now, first to play the five minutes.
Starting point is 01:03:18 It's a time to be like, I know, dude, trust me. They fell asleep early. But I was talking about a jock to whatever. I don't think it's worth the fact that this bbc journalist and there's a narrative and he doesn't even know what he's talking about well we've said this already that all these news you're like it's very rare to find someone who's well educated knows what they're doing yes so there's a shorter one that George sent me this the one i posted yeah What do we do with describe it? Yeah, we need to know, this is common and that will solicit every action and something that I mean,
Starting point is 01:03:49 including something that is slightly racist or like, is that a stereotype? It's something slightly sensitive to the demand. I'm not saying anything. I'm just curious, I'm trying to be a kind of content. And I'm asking asking specific examples.
Starting point is 01:04:07 And you just said that it's something that is slightly sexist, that's equal content, does that mean that it should be hand? When you ask me whether my fate, whether it's God's will, if I say it's God's will, I'm asking for examples. I can't even say it. You can't even say it's good. but just you we can stop for a sec
Starting point is 01:04:39 what what what he means what he says i don't use that fee what does that mean in twitter and he's not he doesn't use twitter he don't use that feed? What does that mean in Twitter? I'm saying he's not, he doesn't use Twitter. Like he doesn't use his private, his personal feed anymore. He's like, I've seen more. He's saying that as he's saying, I don't, yeah, it's confusing. He fucked up because he goes, I'm seeing more hateful comments on there.
Starting point is 01:04:55 And he on goes, so he doesn't look at that feed. What does that feed mean? But his personal one, but his private personal feed. Oh, okay. So then Elon goes, but Juan, he just said, you see more than effort? Here's a give me an example, you just,
Starting point is 01:05:06 well, I don't look at it, it doesn't make sense. You just say, yeah, I'll keep going. Well, it was, I mean, it was the day Elon took over, the N-Murder was used more on Twitter in that day. So they say, so they say, right, there were, I saw a bunch of posts because, you know, I follow certain feeds that show that kind of thing,
Starting point is 01:05:22 but I will say this, let's also not forget that this dude from the BBC, even though he's got a BBC handle and he works with the BBC, he himself is just trying to get attention and likes and views by going, why would you ambush him, set him up? Because he thought he was gonna come out and he's gonna do this thing instead of being like, let's get a meeting, let's set it up,
Starting point is 01:05:39 let's do Alex, go with everything. Yes, I agree. And boy, did it backfire. It's like, did you think you're gonna be smart in the guy who owns this? It's just my favorite part. He could be smarter if he had any. He's definitely not.
Starting point is 01:05:51 He's definitely not. It's like when you want to stand up, get up and you're like, oh, you haven't developed this joke at all. You haven't dug deeper into yet. Oh, ladies, you haven't like found the next move and the next move. That's why you watch the great, you're like, oh, they do the boring bullshit
Starting point is 01:06:04 of sitting down and chew it down and chew it down and chew it down. But even of most of the people with these talking points, if you grill them, they wouldn't, so on Saturday night live when I'm making Keirney, she goes, the first time, they're, she's the non-binary, which is like, I'm not gonna do anything,
Starting point is 01:06:20 I'm a big chick from Cleveland, but it's kind of a great troll, I'm a gentleman, it's a great role. I'm non-binary, that way I get, we talk about it, probably that's what's going on, I don't know. But here's where she goes, you're against healthcare for kids, for trans kids.
Starting point is 01:06:36 No, excuse me. No, it's about being against gender, affirming care as you put it for trans kids. First of all, you don't know if they're trans. You know why? Psychologists don't know because their brains are developing. Their parents don't know, and you know else doesn't know the trans.
Starting point is 01:06:50 The kids. Yeah. And what you're saying, who's gender affirming? What's up, you're a friend. You want to castrate children and have double mastectomies and give them drugs that sterilize them. That's what you call, that's what you think is going to stop them from winning.
Starting point is 01:07:03 So aside if they are trans, that's what you called your fucking healthcare. Get the fuck out of here. So, if you grow them, I love when you grow people who have this narrative that takes on like a snowball and it's like it stops it right in its tracks. That's to Jay's point. I'm always doing any research, looking into it. So we don't have the facts. So everyone's basing their assumption off clicks and short cut versions of it.
Starting point is 01:07:25 Well, I'll tell you how the rest of the interview went. Yeah. Did you find that very right? Did you two hours? Did we have a hand? We haven't had any. No, we didn't give him two hours. Did you have a hand?
Starting point is 01:07:34 I bet he gave him a half hour tops, 45. Yeah, I wonder how the very end was. Is this just the, was it a full interview? But he kept wanting to change the subject and then it's not what happened. And the topic afterwards. Do you want to finish this in? No, this is just a clip.
Starting point is 01:07:51 This cuts out. He goes, give me an example, I can't. You just lied. Yeah, that's great. What else you got, Tim? How'd it up? How do we get on, oh, the whole, see, this is where back to like what you said real quick about
Starting point is 01:08:07 non-binary or not identifying. I have people in my life that don't identify as male or female, as they identify as they them, and they want to have surgery to their body and they're an adult and do it. Their parent or the person that their parent doesn't acknowledge it, can't even fathom it. They're 21 years old. Can't fathom it and so what my core thing is when you ask me about the news or my thing and what I'm just like, all I give a shit about
Starting point is 01:08:41 is making sure that I take care of my kids to create loving, nurture, human beings so that if any, whenever, if my kids ever came to me and said, I'm gay or I'm trans or whatever it is in adult age that I'm able to just support them and hold them, like I got you back, I don't care what it is that you want. I got you back and I love you.
Starting point is 01:09:00 I disagree with you, totally disagree with you because let me tell you something, that 21-year-old or a lot of these people, do you think they'd have these conversations and have this thing where something's wrong with me if that trans ideology hadn't gotten in their heads? I wonder what happened. I don't think there's a problem.
Starting point is 01:09:17 The bottom line is I am saying. The bottom line is what I'm saying is that what I'm saying is that there are a lot of people who have issues with their life. They feel confused. Of course. When you're young and you're trying to make sense of the world, you not only are you confused, but a lot of times you will go to extremes. It's how our brain is. It's how I was, a lot of kids. When you have enough social contagion and enough of a support system for an insane ideology, you are going to take that ideology on why? For a thousand
Starting point is 01:09:46 reasons, one of which might be, I belong to this group now, but it makes me unique now. One might be, it's so extreme, maybe it'll change everything because I don't like myself self-loathing, not liking yourself being dissatisfied with who you are, is part of being fucking young. And the fact that we have an industry now, which makes a lot of money, supporting the mutilation of your body, which I don't believe is going in necessarily in a lot of cases, make you not kill yourself. Not bad. But my wife, I haven't even- So with kids, don't touch the kids. But let's say it's a 25 year old 30 year old and they still feel it and there's actual people out there that identify it as a woman. I would never have been.
Starting point is 01:10:26 I'm not gonna stop that. I'm not gonna stop that. I'm not gonna stop that. And by the way, it's just one of the kids where I'm like, let's wait. You know, that's like, I believe in two genders, like I'm a guy who believes that your gender
Starting point is 01:10:36 correlates to your biology. And I make no apologies. I was trans for three years. Male and female. But if you were trans, if you're coming in your trans, if you're a man who transitioned to a woman, and you want me, I'm going to refer to you as she.
Starting point is 01:10:48 I'm going to, I'm never going to make you feel bad. I don't get off on that. So, and by the way, I'm also going to protect your ability and right to do that. But I'm, but I don't believe, and if you want me to call your woman, I don't believe you're a woman, but I'll call you a woman. But now here's where it stops. You want to fight for biological males and female sports, go fuck yourself. You want to fight for letting kids make their own choices on this, go fuck yourself.
Starting point is 01:11:13 I wish you were passionate about this. I'm so passionate about it. I wish my red lines get excited. Hey, who are you? Anybody who doesn't like their red lines? I don't want them to put their red lines on. No, it's fucking, it's bad for kids. Yeah, but I'm not, I think you made a lot of valid points
Starting point is 01:11:27 at things that like, and I love that you have a stance on it. What I'm saying is at the end of the day, I think the most important thing you can do, whatever you're filling your time and your energy with, if you are a parent is just being there with your kids, love on them, give them discipline. I'm not saying baby them, give them discipline, let them know they're cared, not just not try and solve their on them give them discipline. I'm not saying baby them give them discipline Let them know they're cared not just not try and solve their problems give them the ability to say solve their own problems and
Starting point is 01:11:52 Hopefully with all that all that pain and anger and hate and self-loathing won't be At the surface. I mean, it maybe it's way down a little tiny bit or maybe they'll only have 10% of that Which I have a day that way if they did come to this realization that maybe this is something that they needed to do for themselves, transition, or come out as gay, they know that there's a loving environment to do it in and they're doing it from a place of like, hey, this is who I am, not a place of,
Starting point is 01:12:19 I wanna be a part of something, you know what I mean? Yeah, and suicide's not an option. Cause they have the support. Yeah, of course. Suicide, man. Well, you know, the highest rate of suicide so among transgender people, people have experienced gender dysphoria is 42% or something. Now think about how high that is. Yeah, 42%. This is what's actually driving all people that so so typically people who have this gender dysphoria, this notion that I'm in the wrong gender, the real people, not the people that are, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not, I'm
Starting point is 01:12:48 doing the same thing. I'm talking about people who actually are willing to go through this surgery, which is a major thing. Maybe grow from Juneau. They have a 42% suicide rate after, now, now listen to that. After you're saying, well, no, they don't know. So they don't know that there are a lot of people De-transition a lot of kids are detransitioning like coming back a lot and when you say kids what do you mean what age?
Starting point is 01:13:12 I'm talking about kids went on puberty blockers at 14 13. That's fresh when you come back senior Dave And they're all there to come back to have a stock clinic in right in England had to shut down from their thousands of lawsuits because there are a lot of these kids were autistic. Nobody tells you about this. This is like the equivalent of lobotomies. But at the end of the day, what was I talking about before we said that? Transgender 42% after that. Oh yeah, so 42% right?
Starting point is 01:13:41 So check this out. So that's a higher suicide rate then people in concentration camps during the holocaust and during slavery where american black slaves were under bondage human beings in bondage they didn't come close to that suicide rate and you want to talk about who was doing the fucking stats then can i just as you know what you have to have been between fucking
Starting point is 01:14:04 that caught me give me your uh... suicide stats then. Can I just ask you a quick, you feel so happy that I'm between fucking getting that card and you give me your, suicide level. They have the suicidal. They have the stats. They have the stats. The average life expectancy. Well, they know who can kill them.
Starting point is 01:14:12 Who killed themselves. They don't, so they don't know who's having suicidal. Either way. They do. So the Holocaust is very clear records on that. People, I could see, listen,
Starting point is 01:14:23 I could easily see Hitler wanting to know those stats and initiate that from a side, but I can't, I just, I would love to see where you're getting the information of slave owners being like, yeah, I talked to a good, good chuck of guys. I am. Well, the history of scholars. So historians and scholars, if the suicide rate was anywhere close to 42% among Americans, they'd be... You're talking about...
Starting point is 01:14:49 It'd be something we all know. So you're saying the current rate on trans is 42% that actually follow through with it, not wanting to do it. Yes, yes. Got it. Now watch this. Now that's what I mean. Want to.
Starting point is 01:15:01 Who actually do it? Do it. Do it. Now that's such a high rate. That's why people are trans activists want to nip it in the butt, right? People that actually really care are saying this is unacceptable, which it is, right? Do you know who, do you know who the only other group that comes close to 42% who has roughly the same amount of suicide? This is kind of crazy.
Starting point is 01:15:25 Teenagers? Nope. Not close. Paranoids gets a frenix. Oh, wow. So it's a way of, it's a weird thing, right? So it's like, so you understand that if you are, if you do really have gender dysphoria,
Starting point is 01:15:40 it's very, very rare. It's a very rare thing. And it's almost always male to female. That's less than 1%. Way less, way less less way less, but it's a whole gender. Well, what is the percentage of people doing it now? So it's called social contagion the way anorexia was and bulimia was among girls Jordan Peterson said all the psychologists knew the literature was very clear that you are going to create mass confusion among young children, especially girls already ostracized, already emotionally and mentally unstable.
Starting point is 01:16:14 Well, you have children who already have their loners, their autistic or whatever it might be. They already have their already imbalanced psychologically. This is part of adolescents, this is part of middle school and stuff like that. And they have a safe, all of a sudden you create, all of that. All of a sudden you create an epidemic. You create a possibility that this is what's wrong with me. And I just have experience with this because I have children. When they go on, I think you're gonna see your anorexia.
Starting point is 01:16:42 No, I am. Yes, yes. What? I'll support that. I, I am. Yes, yes. What? I would support that. I'm too shredded. We know that. No, you're not like healthy skin. No, but I'm shredded.
Starting point is 01:16:51 They're too skinny. No. Too shredded. I mean, Jason, fix. Fuck, guys. No, do I? I'll give you, I mean, I'm fucked.
Starting point is 01:16:59 I'm fucked. Ah, damn it. But anorexia, we don't know about some male phantom bombing again. Yeah. To lighten it up a little. Yeah. How's your spelt so good? It's been a heavy podcast.
Starting point is 01:17:10 Back to Jay's special. Well, she got charity on you. Happy stuff for more people dying. I don't think there's much happy stuff out here right now. That's the news. Jay, that's probably a problem. Where are you getting your news? Oh, here's a happy one.
Starting point is 01:17:22 Oh. This is Ed Sheeran. He did concerts, I think, in Brooklyn. And then there's this subway singer who's like an older black dude. He sings Ed Sheeran songs all the time. So Ed Sheeran surprised him and gave him tickets. I'll show it on that train. I was on the Atlanta train.
Starting point is 01:17:37 Give it up. That's way for the advertising first. Hold on, let me write this down. Here. Here. wait for the advertisement first. Hold on, let me write this down. He wasn't that surprised, was he? Well, I expected him to be crying on a stuff, but yeah. You can make it. I can do I keep dancing with my eye I I I
Starting point is 01:18:31 I I I I I I That's the worst episode of Merton out of it. Jesus Christ.
Starting point is 01:18:46 I love that all he did was give him tickets. That's all he did. He's like cool. We're gonna have him up and sing a song to him. He's that guy who's like, he's like, you're doing nothing with your life, man. What are you doing with your life? He's like, just sitting there with his hat on like that. And he goes, I'm doing music.
Starting point is 01:18:59 He goes, you gotta do a music. And he goes, no, I'm not gonna show you some. His grandson. And he goes, what are you gonna show me? He goes, I know you're like, he goes, no, I'm not going to show you some. This is grandson. And he goes, what are you going to show me? He goes, I know you like, friends. I got it, I got it. I got it. Play your safe favorite song.
Starting point is 01:19:10 Dude, he plays purple rain. It's good. The graph was like, you see him like this? It's fine. He goes like this and he goes, then you see him go. He loved it. And then he gets up and has to walk away. I was like, whoo!
Starting point is 01:19:26 He couldn't even have feelings. Their kid was so good. The guy can't have feelings. The kid is so good. You're like, oh, he's transcrushing. Huh? What? What?
Starting point is 01:19:34 I'm just trying to tie it all together. Yes. You know what's the one of the greatest things about the samler special 100% fresh? Have you seen it? Obviously, you've seen it. The Chris Farley tribute? Well, I mean, that's great too. But when he went and he just performs in subways and just like this shit in subways

We also saw 12 seconds and we saw two seconds of their reaction right that's how hilarious You see the gay camera and go oh my god, who's the guy next door? That's part of the guy that that's the guy next door? That's probably the guy that the, that's the officiant. Yeah, officiant. He's the one who's getting, is he the most wrangler?
Starting point is 01:20:50 Ghosts. That guy ain't get a wrangling booth. No, no. We had a bear at our campsite when we were camping in Ohio. It was about from here to the wall. Seriously? Yeah, so I'm like sleeping. I got my son on one side, my daughter on one side,
Starting point is 01:21:01 and then I hear the people at the campsite next was going, oh, you know, you're supposed to yell at a bear and make loud noise, right? So the bear leaves their campsite, comes over to ours and I like wake up from them yelling and I open the window to my tent and he's the bear's right there. Like a brown bear, black bear? It's a... I think it's a black bear, bro. It's a good size.
Starting point is 01:21:20 It was a good size, yeah. And the guy who runs the campsite had told us about the bear ahead of time. It's like every now and then, if you leave the food, he's just gonna come in, it's not a big deal. Not a big deal. So I'm just like, hey, get out of here. By some way, he's like, what's going on?
Starting point is 01:21:32 I go, look at the bear. I got the flashlight. Bear looks at us and just slumbers away. Just goes to the next site. It's very though. I love it. I mean, I'm in Wyoming camping. Big whiskey mountain.

I'm 22 and I'm sitting there And I go the only way I'm gonna get her to calm down is I go that's a myth Who told you that but I knew it was true. I go that's a does period blood It was no Dementia's more than you know, but there is no system. I was at known baritok so related. There's no evidence I'm telling her I go that's such a myth that's such a myth that's such bullshit far such a myth that sucks bullshit. You ripped a big fart. I go with anything.
Starting point is 01:22:43 I go, if anything, it repels them because they can smell humans. She was, how do you know I go? Because I read it, I'm into this stuff. I'm the one who knows about animals. And I had to go. I can't believe that. I was like, I was like, who the hell does?
Starting point is 01:22:59 I was terrified. Hell yeah. Even though I talk completely bullshit. I went to my buddies, can't I go, I need to borrow you kind of, because you're not borrowin' my gun, I'm cold mountain. If you scream, I'll shoot it, I go, fuck you! You're gonna miss and go through me, bro. I gotta get a new tent today for this weekend,
Starting point is 01:23:13 I wanna get like a, I wanna a big one, I wanna buy this six person, too. You wanna be a small condo? Yeah, I wanna be a big tent, then. There's some cool things. I spent 13 hours in a tent when I was fuckin' doin' meat eater, cause there were gale force wins. No, there's real tent. So be honest. I was good tent industry's way different. Yeah, I was in a good tent. I'm in Alaska and a fucking tent. Still small. Yeah, still made of like,
Starting point is 01:23:36 it's Gail Force wins. I don't know how to do anything with a tent. Maybe like fucking put you in the tank. Right. That made for life. Yeah. I'm like, well, even. And they do have any caviar? They're like, what? I just hear a broken in the dead next to me. I can hear it. All right. I just coldest fog. I'm shaking. I always wear big lips. Yeah. He's like, I'm gonna like that. He goes, I just hear him go, you can just hear him put a gear on. I was wet. Fuck him. I think wet off. Yeah. And he goes hunting below. Do You have a lot of tours, just can't. No, I've never hunted. Maybe the only two. But I wouldn't be opposed to it at all.
Starting point is 01:24:13 I love the idea of it. That's why one of my favorite scenes in the history of movies is in Dear Hunter, that scene when he's just got one bullet and he's chasing it, tracking him and truly hunting and like me against you is like the raddest thing of all time. I wonder if they really killed that deer for the movie? Because I'm almost sure they did. That looks like a real shot of a deer.
Starting point is 01:24:35 Can you look that up, Chin? I'm almost sure. I mean, it wouldn't be any humane. You can deer hunt especially. That was the first time I saw a deer actually get shot on camera. I remember I was like, okay. No, I haven't ever gotten into that. I was raised by a single dad. I mean, a single mom.
Starting point is 01:24:50 It was no, she's not hunting. We started camping through boiscus. Yeah. Where was your dad? He just never, he was just the town over, bro. He was? And did you have any idea growing up? He's just, yeah.
Starting point is 01:25:03 So he bounced when I was young and we'd see him up until I was like 10 and then we just never saw him. Being a dad, can you, how, it's, it's unthinkable. Can you imagine just dipping out in your kid right now? Oh, fuck, what the hell bro? But I, I will say there are some circumstance when you look at like how hard it can be fine. You talk about people commit suicide,
Starting point is 01:25:22 people commit suicide over finance. You could easily just be like, well, fuck, you you know like my mom and dad did not have a good relationship and there was constant battle over money from him to us you know what i mean they could just get to a point where he's like it's just too much and i also know as a single dad who has a full-time job my amount of time that i have i mean i have my kids 50% of the time, I would take them 100% if I could, but you start to look at how much time you have in your life, he might have just been like, you know, who knows, you know, I'm going to be like, or to be so talk streamed you, or your mom and him, he's like, this isn't going to be good if I'm here, like I'm doing my kids a lot of time.
Starting point is 01:25:59 I don't think that's what he was thinking. I was trying to help you. Yeah, but I feel you, there might be those certain things. You know, he's dead. I mean, I saw him when I was 36 and then he passed when I was like, what he was thinking. I was trying to help you. Yeah, but I feel you. There might be those certain things. If you know him now. He's dead. I mean, I saw him when I was 36 and then he passed when I was like, what did you have a conversation with him? He had a email.
Starting point is 01:26:11 When I was 36? Yeah, I started emailing him when I was 24 and then we would email for years and then finally at 36, he asked to see me and I went spent eight hours with him and had a really cool day, gave me shit. Really? So I have stuff in my house from him
Starting point is 01:26:24 and then we emailed after that and then when I had my son he was talking about maybe I'll just come to LA and I could just be near you and shit like that. Did you forgive him? Yeah I did. He didn't ask for it. I made that decision. It's important, right?
Starting point is 01:26:39 I think it was just like I started looking at it and just being like you can't ask anyone to be perfect and if we're're truly gonna live in a world where people deserve second chances, I have to like give him the second chance. His name was Norman and I tell my kids. I'm like, well, Normie, you know, that would have been your other grandfather. And they know my story with my dad.
Starting point is 01:27:00 And they're always just like, I never forget one time my daughter was like bummed out about living in two houses and she was talking to me about it and we're talking about and she's a little upset and I'm like, yeah buddy, I go, I bet that's tough for you to have two houses. I go, I don't know what that was like.
Starting point is 01:27:13 I never had two houses. I had one house and I never really saw my dad and she was like upset and she just goes, oh, that must have been so hard for you. Oh, two kids. And I was just like, wow. Wow. It was amazing that she could like have that realization.
Starting point is 01:27:26 That's also a way of saying I love you, dad. Well, she has no problem just saying I love you. But yeah, it was cool. It's so strange, man. I wonder if he had his own demons. He had his own things going on. And this little adult you can sit back and be like, I wonder what was he was dealing with.
Starting point is 01:27:41 I mean, I do a little bit because he would tell him like about his relationship with his dad. His dad, by the way, was dealing with. I mean, I do a little bit because he would tell him like about his relationship with his dad. His dad, by the way, was a physicist. You know, we were talking about that earlier. Or smart death. And at Harvard and sophomore year got pulled out and worked on the atom bomb in Los Alamos. Oh, wow.

And when they came out, it was like, let me take you to drinks, because he just wanted to be around. That's cool. So yeah, and then so my dad worked at the bakery,

So like I have, I found like old emails from him, like where I printed them all out, where he talks about like telling people around the antique store about me. So like he, you know, he just was dealing with, when I went to his apartment,
Starting point is 01:31:00 I was just like, holy shit. This guy hated himself. Yeah, hated himself. It was just like living in. This guy hated himself. Yeah, hated himself. It was just like living in squalor. My aunt was even telling me, it's like, you might not want to go. It's like really sad. And I was like, no, I want to go.
Starting point is 01:31:13 And it was, it was. Maybe I meant to cry. I meant to cry. When you finally died. Oh yeah, when you're both gone. Well, my brother called and I didn't cry. And I was like, he's like, you okay, I'm like, yeah, I'm okay. And it was like, you know, you guys are married, you know, and my wife, even though we're divorced,
Starting point is 01:31:26 is like a very special person to me. And she was even more special to me than, she still will always be, you know, like after my two kids, she's the next most important person in my life, you know. And as soon as I called her, she picked a phone, and she was bald. And she was just like, what is going on? And she just sat there, and then I was able to get it out.
Starting point is 01:31:43 But like it wasn't real till I could tell her almost, you know. You cried for the father you didn't have in a way, what is going on? And she just sat there and then I was able to get it out. But like it wasn't real till I could tell her almost. You cry for the father you didn't have in a way, you know? Right? Yeah, you cry for a lot of it. Well, it's still like, it's like you're saying, you know, you're just connected, you know, by a lot, you know? No matter what. And emotionally to that person, you know?
Starting point is 01:31:58 But you probably wouldn't have been a comic or anything. That said, maybe without a dad, right? Or at the change. Oh, yeah, I mean, this is the thing that people just don't get about comedians. There are some comedians. I was talking to a buddy of mine, who's a maybe without a dad right there. Yeah, I mean, this is the thing that people just don't get about comedians. There are some comedians I was talking to a buddy of mine who's a comedian and I had I'm fucked up and I know he's fucked up and I'm like yeah there's certain people like that are the anomaly and I brought up a comedian I like who just aren't fucked up and he goes bro I've been on the row with him.
Starting point is 01:32:21 He is crazy. Yes. I go really and he goes beyond anyone I've ever he goes I've been on the row with him and said is crazy. Yes. I go really and he goes beyond anyone. I've heard he goes, I've been on the row with him and said to myself, Oh, I'm normal. And I was like, no way. And there is not one. And this is the this is the. We're all missfits. It's the crazy thing about comedy is that people want us to be comedians, despite what we had to go through to get to that point. And then there are comedians now that are working, that we're watching them.
Starting point is 01:32:49 We are watching some comedians, they're like, oh, they're going to be dead soon. And you just go to their show and they're killing and everyone loves them and their agents and their managers are rooting them on. Go, go, go. And we're all watching them die. We're going to watch them die. That's insane. It's insane. Yeah, but in a way, thank God, because they're hilarious.
Starting point is 01:33:07 I mean, I don't know, is there any other way to be? There is a way to, like, there is that, like, you know, hey, if we gotta lose a thousand men to save 100,000, you know, so if we gotta lose one community and to bring joy to millions. Well, it's a weird job we have, it's the weirdest, craziest thing in the world, bro. I don't know if you can be funny without being a fuck up.
Starting point is 01:33:27 Like, you know. Well, you have to be able to like just stare. I followed a community the other day at the store and I was just like, they crushed so hard and I was so impressed that it like, who was it? Alley Wong. Oh, yeah, she's a monster.
Starting point is 01:33:40 It was just so real and so truthful. I'm like, she's on fire. And I'm sitting there and I'm like, what do I do here? What do I do? Because we're in like similar situations with both divorced and she's talking about, but she's talking about it in a way that I can't talk about. And I'm like, I had to like leave the room,
Starting point is 01:33:54 you know what I mean? Because otherwise, I was just like so entranced and watching, it was so good. And then I was like, all right, let me just like try to roll off of what she was talking about. And I rolled it into my own way. And it allowed me the space To talk in a way that I've never allowed myself to talk before and I was like I hit her after I'm like, yo
Starting point is 01:34:13 You were so amazing today. I go. Thank you so much. I like you inspired Yeah, and it was it was your show shows good everyone saying it's beef Everyone's not serious.

So talented.
Starting point is 01:34:32 But she says stuff. So then I would say some stuff and people like oh, when I go see how different it sounds, coming out of my mouth versus coming out of alleys. Like, you know, when a short Asian woman is saying shit about- She's telling the truth. Oral. You know what I mean? You're like, oh shit.
Starting point is 01:34:45 And then if I were to say that, straight white, it's just a completely different thing. It was amazing to see it and be able to comment on it in real time, like, because we just watched it. We all watched it together. It was pretty cool. That's a great thing.
Starting point is 01:34:59 I mean, I think like comedy clubs are like the last frontier of like a place where you can all go. And especially when you're in like a showcase environment like that, because you can go off of one POV to another back to another. And you know, when we talk about freedom of speech, like that's like where it just like lifts, you know. Yeah.
