Starting point is 00:05:38 Wow. Let me listen to my phone message here. Hi, this is Harland. I'm not available right now, so please leave me a message, and I will get right back to you. Thanks. Hello. Hello. Oh, Holland, it's your aunt Ruthie calling Angel.
Starting point is 00:05:57 How are you? Listen, Holland. I'm calling from Rochester. I think you're over in the city of Angels in Los Angeles. Listen, darling. Your Aunt Ruthie's driving around. I think I've got a flat tire. I can't, but I'm hearing a flopping noise, and I'm trying to get down to the pharmacy to pick up some cream.
Starting point is 00:06:18 My psoriasis is acting up. My skin's drier than a popcorn fire. It's all dry and pasty, and I'm a little nervous. The tire's flopping. I can see sparks coming out of the side view mirror, Holland. I'm so nervous, but I'm just going to keep driving because my theory is, and this is something your Uncle Harry always taught me. If something's moving, let it move.
Starting point is 00:06:44 If something's rolling, just let it roll. And I think I smell, oh my God, it smells like burn rubber over here all around me. There's smoke coming off the, but I don't care with this smoke. I don't care with there sparks and there's burnt rubber holland. Your uncle Harry, my beloved Harry, he always told me, just keep it rolling, baby. That's it. Okay, okay, now someone's honking at me, okay? Hello, I'm an old lady here, okay?
Starting point is 00:07:13 I'm driving to the supermarket to get some goddamn psorias cream. I'd appreciate you not blasting your horn at me. Did you hear that, Holland? I'm a little nervous. I know I shouldn't be talking on my cellular. I know. It's against the law. So what, sue me, for Christ's sakes.
Starting point is 00:07:33 I'm an old lady. But my skin is so dry, Holland. It's so dry. It's like, have you ever seen the ass end of a dirty elephant? You ever seen those ass-end elephants walking around all over Africa with the big fat, wrinkled asses crushing up all the goddamn grass? and stepping on their heads of little baby gazelles hiding in the grasses and whatnot. Shit in the size of a fucking log cabin up in the woods.
Starting point is 00:08:01 I mean, for Christ's sakes, my skin. Holland is so dry. And my face is breaking out. I've got a red rash all around my eyes. And, oh, Christ, there goes some more smoke coming off the end of my car. I can't believe it. Oh, okay, now somebody's honking at me again, Holland. You're going to honk at me.
Starting point is 00:08:23 Okay, you know what? I'm trying to drive. I'm going to flat tire you. Okay. Okay, I don't need you with your fucked up teeth and your greasy hair. Why don't you get your eyes adjusted, huh? Your fucking eyes are crooked. You look like a goddamn lizard hanging upside down on a branch in the middle of South America.
Starting point is 00:08:46 Just trying to get to the damn pharmacy. You remember when you were a little boy, Holland? and Aunt Ruth, he took you down to the pharmacy and got you an orange soda cream. And you just sat there in the corner and you drank that thing as if you died and gone to heaven like a little boy you'd been run over by a car as crumpled body on the side of the road
Starting point is 00:09:08 his legs and arms all twisted backwards and bent out of shape like a little child who died and gone to heaven as you sucked on that little... Okay, okay, you know what? Someone's... Hang on. I'm driving to the pharmacy, my... Oh, really? Oh, you're gonna do that?
Starting point is 00:09:26 Well, my fucking skin is all dried up like the ass end of a fucking koalach. I gotta go holl and I'll talk to you later, love. I hope I make boy, baby. And Ruthie loves you, boy, honey. Okay, well, that was a time killer. I'm sorry about that, gang. My Aunt Ruthie calls in from Rochester. She always makes it sound like the world's about to end, and so I couldn't hang up.
Starting point is 00:09:54 I thought maybe she had a flat tire. She was in a crisis situation, and it turns out it's all about, forget it. I apologize. This is show 500. We don't want interruptions, right, Roger? Thank you. Roger just nodded. We don't want interruptions, and that's the way we want it here.
Starting point is 00:10:14 We want to celebrate 500 podcasts here. And I think, you know, what's cool is. we're doing it in the middle of the summer. And here's something really simple. If you're not in the summer spirit yet, if you're not there, if you're not feeling the heat and the warmth and the, you know that summer vibe?
Starting point is 00:10:34 I'm going to give you something so simple and so easy to do. It'll take you back to being a kid again. And it will just for a minute, it will make you remember those hot summers. And it'll it'll project you right into the summer. summer spirit, and if nothing else, will make you feel like a little kid again. It's something I guarantee most of you listening, haven't done in a long, long time, and I hope you do it.
Starting point is 00:11:03 It's fun. It's got an air of innocence about it. It's summery, and here it is. You ready? I did this the other day, and it brought back so many good memories and just, It's like when you go into your mother's house and you smell the cooking. You smell the soup on the stove. And you go, oh, man, this is home.
Starting point is 00:11:28 This is home. That's my mom. This is my family. This is lived in. So here it is. I'm dilly-dally-dall. You're like, come on, Williams. Get to the stupid thing.
Starting point is 00:11:39 I want to be a kid again, you ass wipe. Okay, here it is. It's going to sound dumb. Just get to it. Okay. It's going to sound dumb, but it works. Hurry up. Okay, go outside, preferably during the day when the sun's up.
Starting point is 00:11:57 Go outside, turn on your garden hose, and hold it up by your mouth, and drink from your garden hose. You're like, what? Yeah, that's it. It's that simple, man. Do you remember doing that when you're a kid before you worried about bottled water and sparkling water? and Vita water. Screw that, man. Hose water, man.
Starting point is 00:12:25 Right out of the garden hose. There's something magical. There's something timeless. There's something that sends you back to being a kid again. And trust me, you're rolling your eyes right now, and your grown-up clothes, and your grown-up world, and your grown-up attitude. You're like, what a dill weed.
Starting point is 00:12:46 Yeah, I'm going to go outside. I'm going to turn on my hose and just, drink out of the hose. Hey, put your ego down and your attitude and try this. If you don't have kind of a fun little childlike twinkle in your spirit when you do this, then, okay, I am a dill weed. I am an ass wipe. But I have a sneaky feeling.
Starting point is 00:13:09 You're going to feel something. So next time it's hot out or it's summery or you're just walking by, you're on your way to a meeting or you're out in the driveway putting groceries, He's a win the car, whatever. Walk up to that hose. Turn the knob. Watch the water start to come out. Pick up the end of the hose.
Starting point is 00:13:32 Let the water drop to the ground onto the grass, onto the driveway, wherever you are. And then move your mouth in and just start drinking out of the end of the hose. I'm not thinking of put your mouth on the hose. You know what I mean? just the water's coming out. Start drinking that hose water, man. It is like a step back in time.
Starting point is 00:13:57 And it's not just the drinking of the water. It's the going and turning on that little hose knob. The way it squeaks, it always like, meh, right? It's always a little stiff. And then all of a sudden you feel the pressure come up. You hear it. And then you can kind of anticipate the water. It's like snaking through the hose.
Starting point is 00:14:21 It's like watching one of these bobsledder guys go down the bobsled track. Right? You can almost picture the water. It's slowly moving through the hose and circling its way to the opening. And all of a sudden, boom, it squirts out. The hose starts squirming around like a snake. It's kind of funny water squirting everywhere. There's that certain smell when water hits a steaming hot driveway.
Starting point is 00:14:54 You kind of get that steamy asphalt stink. And I don't know, just seeing water on hot asphalt or on your hot driveway somehow makes you feel cooler. And you run over and you grab the hose, not rate at the tip, but maybe like, you know, six, seven inches back. and you've tamed that wild snake you've tamed that crazy python squirming in your driveway
Starting point is 00:15:25 and you slowly pick it up and you got your dry parched summertime mouth your lips are dry your throat's a little dry because it's so humid and hot out maybe there's some sweat trickling down your temple and that water man
Starting point is 00:15:45 it just looks so clean just look at it for a minute before you put it towards your mouth look it's out of a dirty old hose but look how clean it is it's just clean crystal clear water coming out the end and then just bring it up to your mouth and just put your lips on it before you even start drinking just let it flow across your lips and then open your mouth and just get your tongue go on and it's going across your teeth and you just start kind of, it's not like drinking out of a glass of water or
Starting point is 00:16:20 drinking out of a straw. It's kind of its own thing. It's somewhere between a dog laughing out of a bowl and in a way it's like eating a cob of corn you're kind of biting at the water because it's coming out in like a big like a little
Starting point is 00:16:36 river river coming out of there and you're just like and it's kind of its own way of capturing water in your mouth. And just give it a try. And maybe the feeling only lasts while you're doing it. Maybe you don't get the feeling. If you don't get the feeling, maybe I feel a little bad for you. Hey everybody. Who wants to have better sex?

Uh, yes, please. Would you like tap water or bottled water, sir?

Give me full blast, please. Absolutely excellent, sir. Just turn it on in the restaurant. This hose water is delicious. You know, it looks good.
Starting point is 00:19:47 You mind getting it out of my fucking face off? So there you go. There's my little Benjamin Buttons moment where you're going to grow young again. Go outside, have a great summer, and enjoy the hose water, man. Yeah. Really fever made me feel right, but I must admit you've got the best of me. Getting down, so deep a good of ground. I can't get back the way I used to be.
Starting point is 00:20:30 Oh, man, I can't wait to tell you about what happened to me last night. What? No, no. Oh, no. Roger! Oh, what is he doing here? What is my gardener doing here, Roger? Oh, come on.
Starting point is 00:20:51 I'm doing a podcast. What the hell are you doing here, Fuentes? My name is Senor Fuentes. I know who you are. You're my gardener. Do you see a garden in here? No, senor, I don't. Well, but your hair is awful messy, senor.
Starting point is 00:21:09 Stop it. I am doing a podcast. I've told you a hundred times do not come in here with your gardening stuff. Signor, I had to come in today. It was an emergency. Oh, really? Why did you have to come in here today? Because I have to give you the bird, signor.
Starting point is 00:21:28 Wait a minute. Don't come in here and be giving me the bird, all right? Why not, signore? I already gave it to your neighbors. What are you talking about? I gave your neighbors the bird this morning, Oh, great. What the hell? Yes, signor. Oh, I saw them in the driveway, and I walked right up to them.
Starting point is 00:21:48 I give all of them the bird. Who was in the driveway? The family that lives next door, the old lady, the mother, the father, the four children, even the baby I gave the bird to, senor. Look, there's a thing we have in this country called etiquette. You don't give the bird to families and children and an old lady? Oh, yes, signor. She could barely see, so I had to put the bird right up in her old face.
Starting point is 00:22:16 I think she had a mustache, too. Stop saying that about old lady Hulahan. Oh, signor, I put the bird right in her face. Oh, my God, they're going to sue me. And then the little girl, she was so cute, Signore, and her little pink dress and her piggy tails. Yes. Well, then I gave her the bird, too, Signore.
Starting point is 00:22:36 Oh, my God, you idiot. But really, I thought. at best I come down here because once I gave them the bird they told me to come down here and give you the bird seor look I don't know why they said that I get along with them there's no reason why they should want me to have the bird well senor no look you give me the bird and you're fired I've been dying to give you the bird seor please no Fuentes okay you've been my gardener for how long 15 and a half years, senor. Fifteen wonderful, wonderful, just most excellent years.
Starting point is 00:23:20 Are you being sarcastic? I'm not sure what that means, signor. I really don't. All right, smart guy. Maybe it's time you do give me the bird. Maybe this is a good reason for me to fire your ass. You know, you've been coming in here, stirring up. trouble at my show interrupting
Starting point is 00:23:41 barging in here there's leaves in your hair there's lady bugs on your neck there's ants on your pants oh I like it when you rhyme and do children's stories signor do some more what ants in your pants that wasn't a children's rhyme
Starting point is 00:23:57 that was you've got friggin' ants on your pants oh ow oh oh signor you're right I've got oh ow stop screaming and jumping around in here Fuentes that's signor Fuentes All right, fine. You want to give me the bird, Fuentes?
Starting point is 00:24:14 Is this building up in you? You don't like working for me? My money's not good enough. I never said that, Signor. Come on, go ahead. You want to do it? I dare you. Man up, Fuentes.
Starting point is 00:24:26 Go ahead. Give me the bird. Ready? I'll even count it down for you. Ready? Three, two, one. Give me the bird. Okay, signor.
Starting point is 00:24:35 Here it is. What? What the hell is that? It's the bird, signor. What do you mean, it's the bird? I've been trying to tell you, I gave your neighbors the bird, and then they just told me I should come down here and give you the bird. What bird?
Starting point is 00:24:54 The little bird in my hand, senor, it fell out of the nest in your tree in your backyard. Are you telling me you tried to give my neighbors a real bird? Yes, signor, I didn't know what to do. The poor little thing was flapping around like a little child. with crooked legs that fill out of a wheelchair. Don't say that. So it's a real bird. It sure is, Signor.
Starting point is 00:25:17 Get out of here. But, Signor, the bird. Just get out of here. This is unbelievable. Had me thinking that... Senor, take the bird. Get out of here. Did you just flip me off?
Starting point is 00:25:33 No, senor, I gave you the bird. Get out! God, you know, no respect. Roger, I'm doing number 500 here, okay? I'd appreciate it if we didn't have people just wandering in and out. This is unacceptable. I'm doing a show here. It's a milestone.
Starting point is 00:26:01 It's number 500. I have important things to talk about. I want to reminisce. I want to talk about. All the fun things we've had. You know, I'm trying to sprinkle in a few stories here, a few thoughts. Sorry to interrupt, Harlan. And I don't need interruptions.
Starting point is 00:26:21 Okay? Hey, Harlan. What? Sorry to interrupt. Hey, Harlan. Yeah. George Michael, that guy from Wham. Oh, no.

Starting point is 00:26:41 Huh? I don't know. Well, get rid of him. I don't want to talk to that. He says it's urgent. No way. Oh, no. No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:26:48 Oh, God. No, Roger. Hello, Holland. Oh, God. What the hell? Hello, Holland. It's me. What do you want, George?
Starting point is 00:27:02 It's George Michael, all right? Let's not start it off on the wrong fucking foot. Hey, no swearing, okay? I'm doing my 500th podcast, and I don't want to be interrupted. Well, maybe that's what I fucking called you, right? I said no swearing, you got it? Oh, look at you, old prim and proper. What, you're wearing little school shoes and a little white ternicate

And that's what I'm calling all, and I wanted to congratulate you.
Starting point is 00:27:56 Oh, really? Yeah, that's right. It's a problem. Look, I've always appreciated your little podcast, and I thought, you know, we've been talking for many years. And I thought I should call Ireland on his 500th podcast and wish him a Merry Mary, Mary. Okay, you wished me a Merry, thank you very much, Michael. It's George Fighting Michael, right?
