                                         Live on the Sunset Strip.
                                         
                                         Iconic.
                                         
                                         That was really the first thing that I ever saw
                                         
                                         that made me truly understand the power of stand-up comedy.
                                         
                                         I was 13 years old, I think, maybe 14.
                                         
    
                                         My parents took me to see it, and we were in the audience i remember thinking how is
                                         
                                         this guy so funny just talking how is this possible i was thinking all the movies that i'd seen that
                                         
                                         were really funny like i don't remember what was out back then maybe stripes like which was a great
                                         
                                         movie that i loved so funny so funny but this guy was way funnier and all he was doing was talking
                                         
                                         and i couldn't believe it i remember there was a moment in the movie where he was killing and i just turned and looked at the people in the audience
                                         
                                         and people were just flailing up and down and ah they were just the whole body was laughing
                                         
                                         everything was they were throwing their bodies around i was like this is incredible i've never
                                         
                                         seen anything like this super powerful dude it hit me hard it wasn't like i wanted to be a comic right then and
                                         
    
                                         there i mean i really didn't want to be a comic for another eight years but fuck that was crazy
                                         
                                         yeah what were those things on back in the day movies go to the movie theater oh you saw that

                                         I thought maybe it was on HBO or something like that.
                                         
                                         I thought you were talking about the audience in that crowd.
                                         
                                         No.

                                         Dude, in 1981, this movie must have come out in 80 or 81, if I'm guessing correctly.
                                         
                                         I think we might have looked this up before.

                                         I hope he fills Madison Square Garden and murders and they do a giant Netflix special there.
                                         
                                         And it's just 10 times better than Raw.
                                         
                                         He can do it.
                                         
                                         Guy's still healthy.

                                         Guy is 58 years old. Looks like he's 35. He looks fucking great. We went over it on the podcast the other day. Guy is 58 years old.
                                         
                                         Looks like he's 35.
                                         
                                         He looks amazing.

                                         You think he would still push it to the limit?
                                         
                                         Or do you think he would just have smart bits about common things like life or whatever?
                                         
    
                                         He would push it to the limit of who he is today.
                                         
                                         He's not this 20-year-old kid anymore like he was in delirious you know
                                         
                                         delirious he was really young i mean i want to say he was like 22 or something how old was he
                                         
                                         when in when he filmed eddie murphy delirious we were in high school okay so uh i was probably
                                         
                                         17 or 18 i might have just graduated high school. I think it was 85 or 86.
                                         
                                         22?
                                         
                                         He was 22.
                                         
                                         Dude, are you crazy?
                                         
    
                                         Oh, my God.
                                         
                                         22 years old.
                                         
                                         22 years old.
                                         
                                         And by the way, that's his first.
                                         
                                         He had another one right afterwards.
                                         
                                         I mean, Raw wasn't that long afterwards.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         22. So his perspectives were of a young, wild, 22-year-old dude in the 80s who's like super-duper crazy famous.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         You know, when you say, would he push it now?
                                         
                                         Yeah, he'd push it now.
                                         
                                         But he'd push it now as 58-year-old Eddie Murphy just calling bullshit on things.
                                         
                                         What's nonsense?
                                         
                                         What's stupid?
                                         
                                         And the impressions.
                                         
                                         And I hope he has 20 minutes on Bill Cosby
                                         
    
                                         he just opens up you know what what I was 22 it just just has a fucking epic

                                         Wasn't he the guy
                                         
                                         that David Spade
                                         
    
                                         made the falling star joke about?
                                         
                                         No,
                                         
                                         what was the falling star joke?
                                         
                                         I mean,
                                         
                                         maybe.
                                         
                                         What was the falling star?
                                         
                                         Back on SNL days,
                                         
                                         David Spade had that
                                         
    
                                         Hollywood Minute segment and he made a controversial joke about Eddie, because I guess Eddie had just left SNL or something like that.
                                         
                                         And he goes, hey, everybody, look, a falling star.
                                         
                                         I think it was Eddie Murphy.
                                         
                                         Oh, Eddie left SNL way before that.
                                         
                                         Way before David Spade's career.
                                         
                                         Way before.
                                         
                                         Way before David Spade's career.
                                         
                                         Way before.
                                         
    
                                         Dude, when I was hanging out with Phil Hartman, that was in the 80s.
                                         
                                         It is about Eddie Murphy about that?
                                         
                                         This David Spade joke that kept Eddie Murphy off SNL for two decades.
                                         
                                         Huh.
                                         
                                         So maybe it was because of his movies.
                                         
                                         It was definitely quite a bit after he had left the show because he was he had left the show like when delirious was out he said in an interview in 2011 that they said some shitty
                                         
                                         things to him a couple times after he left right but it was quite a bit after he left yeah yeah
                                         
                                         it wasn't like he just left and then david spade came on board i don't think that was the timing
                                         
    
                                         i think david spade was on way later.
                                         
                                         By the way, look at that little boy pretending to be David Spade.
                                         
                                         By the way, that Greta Thornburg girl, the climate girl, who yelled at everybody,
                                         
                                         she's person of the year on Time Magazine.

                                         You know how many trees had to get cut down to make all those Time magazines that they're putting out?
                                         
                                         A lot.
                                         
                                         A lot of trees had to die for that Time magazine. the way that all could be avoided with hemp far superior paper
                                         
                                         way easier and that's what got the whole marijuana legalization process started in the first place
                                         
    
                                         it was william randolph hearst and his fucking newspaper company he didn't want to convert over
                                         
                                         to hemp paper that's literally what started it. These fucks.

                                         She should be ashamed of herself that she let Time Magazine chop down all those trees
                                         
                                         just to give her something to frame on her wall.

                                         My mind was blown watching the whole thing.
                                         
                                         Such a great Christmas movie.

                                         Rob Schneider's actually hilarious in this one.
                                         
                                         Those are classic movies, man.
                                         
                                         When we were kids, those were huge.
                                         
    
                                         They put it together so well.
                                         
                                         Like I'm looking
                                         
                                         at it now i've i've i guess it's the writer in me or the la guy like i'm looking at movies
                                         
                                         differently now and i'm like this is so beautiful how they made this coincidence happen because you
                                         
                                         do anything else first of all they look like horrible parents no matter what first movie too
                                         
                                         terrible they get on a fucking plane without their son like who are you right so they really had to
                                         
                                         make this one work out and they do such a great job with it he's replacing batteries a guy they're
                                         
                                         they're running of course still this late family that can never have their shit together and he's
                                         
    
                                         chasing the guy and it makes sense because he runs into the lady taking tickets yes back when they
                                         
                                         took physical tickets and he runs into the ladies chasing the guy that looks like his dad and the
                                         
                                         tickets go everywhere so it makes sense that he doesn't have a seat and it makes sense and they went he went to
                                         
                                         the wrong gate following the wrong guy like everything makes sense it's beautiful that
                                         
                                         they can make comedies that way back then like could rationalize a family being in a different

                                         You know what it should be?
                                         
    
                                         It's Macaulay Culkin as a 40-year-old man trying to figure out what the fuck happened to him.
                                         
                                         They put him on these movies when he was a little baby.
                                         
                                         He's a cool guy.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Very nice guy.
                                         
                                         I had him in here on the podcast.
                                         
                                         I really enjoyed talking to him.
                                         
                                         Very smart.
                                         
    
                                         Just a very interesting little fella.
                                         
                                         But, you know, it ain't good for anybody to do that to their kids.
                                         
                                         Make your kids that fucking famous.
                                         
                                         Remember how famous Macaulay Culkin was?

                                         He's not going crazy.
                                         
                                         He's not buying Ferraris.
                                         
    
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         He just does whatever he wants.
                                         
                                         He's nothing like his character in the Home Alone movies.
                                         
                                         No, he's not.
                                         
                                         Well, he's a grown-up.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         He's a grown-up man of leisure.
                                         
                                         He's a grown-up.
                                         
    
                                         He's a grown-up man of leisure.
                                         
                                         But I think out of all the people that I've ever met that are famous at a child's age,
                                         
                                         he might be the best at it.
                                         
                                         Because I think it's an impossible task.
                                         
                                         I really do. And I think the only way it really works, if you can handle fame,
                                         
                                         is if you've developed character over your life and become an
                                         
                                         adult and and we're nothing and understand hard work and understand the fortune that you have to
                                         
                                         to be famous or to be successful in show business but if you grow up like that man all your signals
                                         
    
                                         are all crossed wrong all your wires are all up. You grow up thinking that you're super duper important for no reason with no work at all.
                                         
                                         And that you can literally get whatever you want and have people get it for you.
                                         
                                         Anytime you want.
                                         
                                         All the time.
                                         
                                         Like Justin Bieber.
                                         
                                         How?
                                         
                                         How?
                                         
                                         How is he not going to be crazy?
                                         
    
                                         How is he not going to be crazy?
                                         
                                         You tell me.
                                         
                                         I think he's handling it incredibly. The idea that you're going to hold him to the same standards as this other kid who's
                                         
                                         also 24, whose dad is a football coach at the high school and whose mom is a math teacher,
                                         
                                         and they're really in tight with their community, and he grew up going to scout camps, and he plays
                                         
                                         football, and he plays baseball, and he's got a bunch of friends
                                         
                                         he grew up with and they're all normal and he's had a girlfriend for the past two years but he
                                         
                                         doesn't know if he should make it serious when he goes to college and come on come on man yeah
                                         
    
                                         he's a whole different different kind of person man yeah a kid who went to a normal high school
                                         
                                         and went to a normal college and then became 22 versus poor fucking him right pulled
                                         
                                         out of school so you don't have real like knowledge of history you can probably barely read
                                         
                                         justin bieber's what 23 or something probably worth hundreds of millions of dollars and probably

                                         loser yeah get your shit together loser instead of looking at it like a child abuse case right
                                         
                                         it's almost like child abuse i mean the best kind of abuse ever like cry me a river you got a couple
                                         
    
                                         hundred million dollars out of it.
                                         
                                         Buy a therapist, bro.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         But I don't know if a therapist would work.
                                         
                                         The thing about something like that is, that's the kind of development.
                                         
                                         I sound like a psychologist.
                                         
                                         Someone who barely went to school.
                                         
                                         But the kind of developmental damage that happens when you don't have to go through
                                         
    
                                         all the normal stuff that

                                         people there but the the point is that like if you don't have a motivation to work hard whether it's
                                         
                                         to become a stand-up whether it's to become a martial artist or what anything that you like

I got to make something happen. You got to go through shit for that feeling to sort of emerge with enough
                                         
                                         horsepower to get you some momentum.
                                         
                                         I can't imagine who I would be if I was famous when I was six.
                                         
                                         I'd be such a mess.
                                         
    
                                         I mean, the drugs, they just can't get.
                                         
                                         They can't pump the serotonin out of their brain fast enough.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         So they, a lot of, you know, that's why so many of these people chase these dragons.
                                         
                                         Well, they also get really depressed when they don't have continual constant success.
                                         
                                         Like a lot of kids that experience like an early peak and, you know, everybody loves them and they're super used to it and everybody's kissing their ass and then it drops off.
                                         
                                         And they're like, what?
                                         
                                         What do you mean it drops off?
                                         
    
                                         And they get crazy because they want to get it back.
                                         
                                         How do I get it back?
                                         
                                         How do I get my relevance?
                                         
                                         How do I get my this?
                                         
                                         How do I get my that?
                                         
                                         You see them get really, even just young people. Like I was reading, do you remember Heidi and Spencer from The Hills?
                                         
                                         Jamie does.
                                         
                                         Jamie's into it. He's got it on box well those those that couple was on this reality show and they were everything
                                         
    
                                         for a while constantly in these gossip papers everybody paying attention and
                                         
                                         then she got a gang of plastic surgery too it was very unfortunate because it
                                         
                                         was like public right it was, like, public, right?
                                         
                                         It was, like, many, many, many, many, many surgeries.
                                         
                                         And she was a pretty girl to begin with.
                                         
                                         That never works out.
                                         
                                         You know, you get a very, I mean, look, maybe it kind of worked out with Kylie Jenner.
                                         
                                         I'm just saying.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Right?
                                         
                                         It kind of did work out.
                                         
                                         But she did a little jaw thing, right?
                                         
                                         She did a lot of shit.
                                         
                                         I don't know what she did.
                                         
                                         Something happened. Unless magic and less pixies i mean i don't know how much she's saying she did
                                         
                                         yeah but it's just like everything changed for the better i'm assuming you did something
                                         
    
                                         like your nose your face but the problem with that is like really young girls want to do that too. And some of them are hot the way they are.
                                         
                                         They're just super hypercritical.
                                         
                                         And everybody else at that age is super hypercritical too.
                                         
                                         So if your nose is like a little bigger than maybe you think it should be,
                                         
                                         like I got to fix it, I got to fix it.
                                         
                                         But when you do something like that,
                                         
                                         especially if it's not like an egregious issue that you really do need to deal with,
                                         
                                         if you get your nose fixed, like it looks like you got your nose fixed so every time someone's
                                         
    
                                         talking to you they're like you got your nose that's not your nose yeah what's why does that
                                         
                                         nose not fit your face it doesn't fit your face because there's a ratio there's a specific ratio
                                         
                                         like the the width of your eyes apart from your eyes the length of your head will give you an
                                         
                                         indication of how long and what shape
                                         
                                         your nose should be as weird as it seems all this shit lines up the fibonacci sequence i think is
                                         
                                         it the golden ratio the fibonacci sequence are the same thing kind of are they the same thing
                                         
                                         the lips are the weirdest thing right oh that's the weirdest for sure that's well there's another
                                         
                                         weird thing when people's foreheads don't move like hey what's going on are you shocked there's like this thing that they do it's like there's no movement at all i don't mind the fake

                                         The bots on Instagram are stunning, and Jamie had a really good point.
                                         
                                         He said they would never remove all of them because if they did, it would diminish the number of total users they have.
                                         
                                         I'm like, oh, I didn't even think like that.

                                         the bot thing is just a noise thing like they're just trying to get you to click on their page
                                         
                                         oh this is a big one they're doing now too.
                                         
                                         Is my music any good?
                                         
    
                                         I was just going to bring that up.
                                         
                                         I saw that right here.
                                         
                                         I was looking at it.
                                         
                                         But that's not real.
                                         
                                         No, it is.
                                         
                                         But it's not an artist, right?
                                         
                                         No, but there's various.
                                         
                                         They could be as simple as someone's just trying to draw attention to an account so they could sell that account.
                                         
    
                                         In some dummies, one out of 1,000 people click and follow that account.
                                         
                                         Now they've got 10,000 and they can sell it.
                                         
                                         Right, right, right.
                                         
                                         That makes sense.
                                         
                                         Yeah, but it's just there's never been a time like this where you got a bunch of fake people talking too.
                                         
                                         That's weird.
                                         
                                         Like there's a bunch of people right now for sure that are posting on Twitter.
                                         
                                         right now for sure that are posting on twitter there's probably thousands of them right now that are doing it because they're getting paid to pretend to be a republican who's really upset
                                         
    
                                         about the libs or they're being paid to pretend to be uh progressive who thinks uh trans people
                                         
                                         should be mandatory in every position of power and Some of the wackier positions that people take online
                                         
                                         are most likely taken up not just from wacky people.
                                         
                                         There's going to be wacky people for sure.
                                         
                                         But there's also going to be a certain amount of them,
                                         
                                         I don't know what the number would be,
                                         
                                         where these people are getting paid to stir up shit online.
                                         
                                         I mean, this is the Renee DiResta thing.
                                         
    
                                         This woman was on the podcast, this woman
                                         
                                         who was on the podcast who studied Russia and these Russian troll farms. There's this
                                         
                                         thing called the IRA. It's the Internet Research Agency. And they just pay people to tweet.
                                         
                                         This is one of the things they set up. Some of it's kind of funny. First of all, their
                                         
                                         memes are hilarious. They do a great job. They make really funny memes. And one of the things they did is they took a Texas separatism meeting.
                                         
                                         Like Texas people who are like, we should buy our own country.
                                         
                                         Those folks.
                                         
                                         And they scheduled it at the exact same time across the street from this Muslim meeting.
                                         
    
                                         So they're basically just trying to get people to fight each other.
                                         
                                         So they have this pro-Islam group that's meeting that they completely organize.
                                         
                                         They completely organize this anti-American group.
                                         
                                         They completely organize women for Trump, women for Bernie.
                                         
                                         It's like, as a white woman, I can't support Jill Stein.
                                         
                                         Or as a black woman, how are we going to let Hillary Clinton run this country?
                                         
                                         All Russian people just getting paid.
                                         
                                         This is what we're doing.
                                         
    
                                         Who's paying them?
                                         
                                         The Internet Research Agency.
                                         
                                         The idea is that they can shift.
                                         
                                         Look, if you just stop for a moment and think, if you have a close election, like Trump and
                                         
                                         Hillary, it's a close election, trump and hillary it's a close
                                         
                                         election right she wins the popular vote he wins the the electoral college but it's close enough
                                         
                                         where it's within a million people one way or the other if you can get people engaged on a very
                                         
                                         specific subject like the impeachment hearings you can get people engaged and get people to think,
                                         
    
                                         God damn it, these Dems, this is a coup.
                                         
                                         They're trying to take over the fucking country.
                                         
                                         And you start telling other people, and they start telling other people,
                                         
                                         and then you've got this Facebook page that these folks have put up,
                                         
                                         and it's got interactions that are going on all day long.
                                         
                                         People are arguing about it.
                                         
                                         And if they're jumping in and chiming in,
                                         
                                         and then the pro-Trump people chime in too,
                                         
    
                                         and everybody gets fired up.
                                         
                                         It's like that goddamn crow and the cats.
                                         
                                         Remember that video we played the other day?

                                         Think tanks that think of this stuff all day long.
                                         
                                         And new strategies to do this.
                                         
                                         New strategies to get people riled up.
                                         
                                         And to get people to fight with other people.
                                         
    
                                         So they'll have black lesbians for socialism meet.
                                         
                                         And it's fake.
                                         
                                         It's all Russian people that are just pretending to be a black lesbian who's really into socialism.
                                         
                                         And then capitalists get on that page.
                                         
                                         Fuck you.
                                         
                                         Get a job.
                                         
                                         Free market rules.
                                         
                                         Libertarians.
                                         
    
                                         The only way to go.
                                         
                                         And then they chime in back and forth. And they're people fired up and the page gets all this interaction and sometimes they
                                         
                                         change pages like one of them was like a comedy meme page and then it shifted over and became
                                         
                                         like a black lives matter page when that seemed like to be effective so they already had a certain
                                         
                                         amount of people on it and they used it for something else it's wild shit man crazy and we're doing it too guarantee guarantee some there's some out contrast contracted out company
                                         
                                         that is doing that for whatever branches of the uf government u.s government if not all of them
                                         
                                         oh yeah yeah we don't know our government's so good we're probably the ones that make it look
                                         
                                         like the russians are doing it in the first place. We're probably hiring Russians.
                                         
    
                                         And they don't even know they're working for us.
                                         
                                         They think they're working for Russia.
                                         
                                         Like, why does Russia care about Black Lives Matter?
                                         
                                         They do.
                                         
                                         They care.
                                         
                                         Sorry.
                                         
                                         Who pays the internet research agents?
                                         
                                         Exactly.
                                         
    
                                         It's Trump all along.
                                         
                                         It's like a Scooby-Doo episode.
                                         
                                         He pulls the mask.
                                         
                                         It was you.
                                         
                                         I would have got away with it, it too was it for you meddling kids
                                         
                                         how fucking stupid was that show you could have like a little tiny girl like an eight-year-old
                                         
                                         girl you pull her mask off and she's an old man like hey what the fuck i saw someone break down
                                         
                                         that it was really dumb that shaggy and Scooby ran at the same speeds
                                         
    
                                         Because there's a dog and a human being
                                         
                                         Oh yeah
                                         
                                         And Shaggy was a stoner
                                         
                                         He's not in shape
                                         
                                         But someone broke it down which is also stoner-ish and ridiculous
                                         
                                         That's true though but they're on to something
                                         
                                         I mean imagine being high and watching
                                         
                                         Hey man
                                         
    
                                         How the fuck is that dude running as fast as that dog

                                         in the middle of the living room what the fuck how is that dude this is bullshit i think about
                                         
                                         that stuff a lot the one that gets me is the wizard of oz and dark side of the moon i cannot
                                         
                                         imagine what that first person it had to be a regular human. They had to have just smoked pot. There's no way you didn't
                                         
                                         just smoke pot. It had to be acid.
                                         
                                         Acid? It had to last a little longer than pot.
                                         
                                         Wizard of Oz seems like that'd
                                         
    
                                         be fun. Put that in the VCR. It had to be
                                         
                                         a VCR because it was way back
                                         
                                         then. It had to be a record player.
                                         
                                         You had to flip it, right?
                                         
                                         Oh my god, that's right. How would you get past that? Because you couldn't play
                                         
                                         a CD and go the whole way through. That's right.
                                         
                                         You would have to flip it. They did two sides on's right. How would you get past that? Because you couldn't play a CD and go the whole way through. That's right. You would have to flip it.
                                         
                                         They did two sides on an album.
                                         
    
                                         How did they know how to do it right?
                                         
                                         And does it perfectly sync?
                                         
                                         The first time I saw it was the first time I ever did mushrooms,
                                         
                                         and it was fucking crazy.
                                         
                                         So there are a lot of sync moments.
                                         
                                         It's so insane if you're sober.
                                         
                                         And now they have it.
                                         
                                         What's crazy is that it's such cheat mode,
                                         
    
                                         but now you can do it.
                                         
                                         And I remember doing it in high school with my buddies uh we smoked pot and matched it up and you had to

                                         the coins drop and it's money.
                                         
    
                                         Oh my God.
                                         
                                         And the little munchkins are all jumping.
                                         
                                         Bam,
                                         
                                         bam,
                                         
                                         bam,
                                         
                                         bam.
                                         
                                         I can see that.
                                         
                                         It's insane.
                                         
    
                                         Cue up that scene.
                                         
                                         See if you can find it.
                                         
                                         We definitely cannot play that.
                                         
                                         We can't play it,
                                         
                                         but we could listen to it.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         And comment over it or no.
                                         
                                         It won't work that way?
                                         
    
                                         All right, we'll wait.
                                         
                                         We'll wait an hour or so.
                                         
                                         We're going to say it later, but yeah.
                                         
                                         We're doing a little bit.
                                         
                                         I looked up recently.
                                         
                                         Some people thought they definitely tried to do this
                                         
                                         because it seems so purposeful.
                                         
                                         But I read an interview with one of the guys in the band
                                         
    
                                         that at the time they recorded the album, VHS didn't exist.
                                         
                                         So they would have had to have had reels in the studio
                                         
                                         and a projection.
                                         
                                         And the amount of work to do that would have been what time are they when do they record the album
                                         
                                         74 75 yeah and to also even if they were even if they did do that why would they do it doesn't make
                                         
                                         any sense like they made what is one of the biggest selling albums of all time dark side of
                                         
                                         the moon it's the it's just a perfect album and and and why would they oh we
                                         
                                         have to match it up to wizard of oz like it doesn't make any sense at all so if they did that
                                         
    
                                         that would be psychotic it's just a crazy crazy coincidence it's the way i think it's the ultimate
                                         
                                         coincidence it's just so many crazy things that these two epic uh productions would match up at
                                         
                                         all yeah it's very weird do you know how long that album lasted on the Billboard charts for?
                                         
                                         How long?
                                         
                                         741 weeks.
                                         
                                         Yeah, the longest ever, right?
                                         
                                         Jesus Christ.
                                         
                                         From 73 when it came out until 1988.
                                         
    
                                         Jesus Christ.
                                         
                                         They're just selling copies.
                                         
                                         And still.
                                         
                                         And still.
                                         
                                         How many albums, how many copies has it sold?
                                         
                                         I'll check and see.
                                         
                                         Let's guess. Let's guess.
                                         
                                         Let's guess before we look.
                                         
    
                                         What do you think?
                                         
                                         $35 million?
                                         
                                         That sounds good.
                                         
                                         I'm going with that.
                                         
                                         All time?
                                         
                                         All time.
                                         
                                         Including online?
                                         
                                         Those numbers become different, but yeah, sure.
                                         
    
                                         I don't know.
                                         
                                         I'd say.
                                         
                                         Online, you've got to jack it up further.
                                         
                                         1,500 plays equals one buy. Now it's just tough.
                                         
                                         I don't know.
                                         
                                         I'm going to go high here.
                                         
                                         I'm going to guess $400 million, $300 million.
                                         
                                         Jesus.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Is that possible?
                                         
                                         It's not that high.
                                         
                                         What's the album that got sold the most?
                                         
                                         The Eagles' greatest hits.
                                         
                                         Better Thriller, I was going to say.
                                         
                                         So what do we got? Certified 15 times platinum in the u.s oh that's 15 million altogether if i add these up it gets close to
                                         
                                         about 22 25 there's but that's in the u.s four and a half in the uk two million in france two
                                         
    
                                         million in canada and then nothing else over 250 aust Australia got close to a million. Close to a million.

                                         Those numbers sound walking.
                                         
                                         14 times platinum in Australia

                                         Yeah, there's only 20 million people in the entire country of Australia.
                                         
                                         And it's the size.
                                         
    
                                         Eagles greatest hits is number one.
                                         
                                         What does that have?
                                         
                                         Let's guess that.
                                         
                                         I'm going to say 42.
                                         
                                         42 million.
                                         
                                         I mean, we're going U.S. album sales.
                                         
                                         No, we'll go world.
                                         
                                         We are?
                                         
    
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Was that global, the number you said for Dark Side?
                                         
                                         He added all the other stuff.
                                         
                                         Oh, okay.
                                         
                                         It was 15 American, right?
                                         
                                         Is that what it was?
                                         
                                         I'll go 52 on the Eagles' greatest hits.
                                         
                                         42 and 52.
                                         
    
                                         Let's see.
                                         
                                         36 million certified.
                                         
                                         Wow. Wow. And that's worldwide?'s see. 36 million certified. Wow.
                                         
                                         And that's worldwide?
                                         
                                         It just says certified, so I guess.
                                         
                                         That is so much.
                                         
                                         So what is that money-wise?
                                         
                                         How much do they cost each?
                                         
    
                                         $10.
                                         
                                         Average.
                                         
                                         That's what back then?
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         And kind of now because digitally it's like a little more sometimes.
                                         
                                         They were the first ones to sell a $100 ticket too, I heard, recently.
                                         
                                         Whoa.
                                         
                                         To sell a 1977, 75, whatever.
                                         
    
                                         The price to go to see them was $100.
                                         
                                         In 77?
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         What was $100 in 77?
                                         
                                         It's like a week of work almost.
                                         
                                         Let's guess that.
                                         
                                         Let's guess that.
                                         
                                         How much do you think?
                                         
    
                                         $100 in 1977 in 2019 money.
                                         
                                         What do you think?
                                         
                                         $100 in 1977.
                                         
                                         I'm going to go $650.
                                         
                                         I like that.
                                         
                                         I like that.
                                         
                                         I'm going to go $500.
                                         
                                         $77? I'm trying to find out when they did it first
                                         
    
                                         to get that accurate thing.
                                         
                                         They were the first billion dollar
                                         
                                         Let's just try $77 because we're trying to figure it out.
                                         
                                         How much is
                                         
                                         $100? Yeah. What would you say? The exchange rate? Let's just try 77 because we're trying to figure it out. How much? Just for, how much is, how much, what's the, yeah.
                                         
                                         What would you say, the exchange rate?
                                         
                                         It's not an exchange rate.
                                         
                                         It's not another country.
                                         
    
                                         Currency rate.
                                         
                                         What's the inflation?
                                         
                                         Inflation makes it about, according to 2016, inflation would have been about $300, $296.05.
                                         
                                         That's it?
                                         
                                         That's a lot.
                                         
                                         $396.05? $300. Is it $296.05. That's it? That's a lot. $396.05?
                                         
                                         $300.
                                         
                                         Is it $296.05?
                                         
    
                                         Yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                         Yeah, but in comparison to 1977, I would have thought it would have been a lot more.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         I know.
                                         
                                         But that's still a lot.
                                         
                                         They're charging $300 for a ticket.
                                         
                                         Yikes.
                                         
                                         The Eagles are ballers, man.
                                         
    
                                         I can't remember where I learned that they were the first band to um they had a deal
                                         
                                         where they would would not only would they get the tickets and a lot of other things but they sold
                                         
                                         they got part of the parking spots was that with you where we found that out i can't remember where

                                         us too so they would you know get that so it's basically like
                                         
                                         selling a whole nother 40 ticket for each person and then if the place or whatever if the arena
                                         
                                         was like no you can't do that they're like okay well we're gonna go to the baseball stadium then
                                         
                                         they're like oh okay well we'll like we'll go to the football stadium or we'll go to the city next
                                         
    
                                         to you and everybody from your city is gonna go to that city and you won't have you know a booming
                                         
                                         economy for the night for that night or we could just do it in your arena like
                                         
                                         we're asking they would just play super hardball and since they had all the leverage they would
                                         
                                         just fill stadiums the people would be like okay we'll give you what you want it's the the touring
                                         
                                         business is weird like the the ticket prices that get jacked.
                                         
                                         Like Andrew Schultz was talking about this.
                                         
                                         About like the fee.
                                         
                                         Like say if you buy a ticket, there's a fee.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah, that's crazy.
                                         
                                         Who gets that?
                                         
                                         What is that?
                                         
                                         What's that fee for?
                                         
                                         Are you lifting weights?
                                         
                                         Are you carrying something?
                                         
                                         If you're going to take my ticket, if it's a physical ticket,
                                         
                                         and you have to fly it in a fucking airplane across the country.
                                         
    
                                         It costs $0.35.
                                         
                                         I mean, think about how crazy that is.
                                         
                                         Like, a fucking, it costs $0.35.
                                         
                                         Is that what it is for a stamp today?
                                         
                                         I have no idea.
                                         
                                         Let's go crazy and say it's $0.50.
                                         
                                         For $0.50, someone will take a fucking letter and bring it to Alaska for you.
                                         
                                         They'll bring it across the country.
                                         
    
                                         They'll put it in Hawaii.
                                         
                                         They'll bring your fucking letter to Hawaii for 50 cents.
                                         
                                         I don't know if that's true.
                                         
                                         It's true.
                                         
                                         Is it different when you send something to Hawaii?
                                         
                                         First class U.S. mail?
                                         
                                         It's probably not, right?
                                         
                                         I think they just fly it.
                                         
    
                                         They fly everything, right? Meanwhile, if you want to buy a ticket, they want like, what do they get? It's probably not, right? I think they just fly it. They fly everything, right?
                                         
                                         Meanwhile, if you want to buy a ticket, they want like, what do they get?
                                         
                                         It's a convenience fee, too.
                                         
                                         Convenience fee, they call it.
                                         
                                         Oh, it's convenient.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         So convenient, you just take my money.
                                         
                                         Someone's just getting money for nothing.
                                         
    
                                         Well, then there's the other thing, man, that's equally weird, is that people are allowed
                                         
                                         to buy tickets and then sell them at exorbitant rates.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         tickets and then sell them at exorbitant rates yeah so what they do is they'll buy tickets like you say if uh you know kanye west is performing and the ticket says
                                         
                                         200 on the ticket they buy a giant chunk of these 200 tickets and they sell them for 2 000 each
                                         
                                         and you can do that and even though he wants his tickets to be $200,
                                         
                                         now they're $2,000.
                                         
                                         And then someone makes a shitload of money.
                                         
    
                                         There's supposed to be laws about that, but like...
                                         
                                         Well, it's weird.
                                         
                                         It's weird.
                                         
                                         It's supposed to be called scalping, right?
                                         
                                         It used to be illegal.
                                         
                                         They used to look for people scalping
                                         
                                         when you would go to a concert.
                                         
                                         Yeah, you need tickets?
                                         
    
                                         Who's got tickets?
                                         
                                         And the cops would grab them,
                                         
                                         pull them over and fucking cuff them.
                                         
                                         They used to get you.
                                         
                                         Now they do it just everywhere. It's all around it.
                                         
                                         But now you can do it,
                                         
                                         I think, legally.
                                         
                                         I think it's legal, and I think that
                                         
    
                                         these companies have found a way to do it
                                         
                                         where it's totally legal.
                                         
                                         They just buy the tickets and then offer them for sale
                                         
                                         at a higher price.
                                         
                                         But a lot of these guys like Live Nation, a lot of these other companies, they're trying
                                         
                                         really hard to figure out a way to stop it.
                                         
                                         But I don't know what you can do.
                                         
                                         Like Louis C.K. used to have a funny thing that he would do.
                                         
    
                                         He'd make everyone pay for cash.
                                         
                                         If you want to buy tickets to see him at the store, he would charge cash and you had to
                                         
                                         buy them like a couple hours before the show.
                                         
                                         So a couple hours before the show, people
                                         
                                         would be waiting in line on Sunset
                                         
                                         to go see Louis. Yeah, and he
                                         
                                         would limit them, right? Yeah, and that would be
                                         
                                         his spending money. And so he'd get a giant

                                         shopping bag filled with cash.
                                         
                                         Like one of those paper
                                         
                                         bags you get at the grocery store. He'd fill
                                         
                                         that bitch up with cash. I don't know what he

                                         He's just doing all cash.
                                         
                                         He's a $5 billion business in the United States.
                                         
    
                                         They call it reselling now instead of scalping.
                                         
                                         So they've changed some laws.
                                         
                                         There's loopholes.
                                         
                                         Loopholes, huh.
                                         
                                         I wonder whose campaign got that kickback, huh?
                                         
                                         Probably Tipper Gore or something.
                                         
                                         Do you remember when Al Gore's wife

                                         Doesn't sound like a lady who's trying to stop rap music.
                                         
                                         I can picture that.
                                         
                                         That was like a big part of her thing as the vice president's wife.
                                         
                                         She was trying to stop and put lyrics on parental advisories on rap music.
                                         
                                         That was back when two live crew were getting arrested.
                                         
                                         We forget about that.

                                         But no rappers had gone to jail.

                                         But these guys, when you know they're getting arrested, you see the glassy look in their eye.
                                         
                                         You see them confused and stupid.
                                         
                                         You see them say crazy shit.
                                         
                                         You see them get pushed against a car.
                                         
                                         You see them screaming at their old lady with their shirt off.
                                         
                                         You see them.
                                         
    
                                         These are real people.
                                         
                                         That's reality TV.
                                         
                                         It might be the only reality TV there really is.
                                         
                                         Because everything else, everyone's painfully aware of the cameras there.
                                         
                                         The only thing that sucks about it is the cops are bad actors.
                                         
                                         Like most of those cops on those shows are like, well, you know, we're just doing our

                                         Just like everything else.
                                         
                                         It's going to fall apart.
                                         
                                         And they're going to fake arrests.

                                         Hmm.
                                         
                                         What does that mean?
                                         
                                         Would you let someone stab you on television?

                                         I don't think they stabbed him.

                                         I used to be a cop.
                                         
                                         So they would just run a scenario by him.
                                         
                                         And he would say that.
                                         
                                         And everyone knew what was going on. And so they all covered right he lied to them they didn't know
                                         
                                         and so he would show up and do this goofy fucking show and he would just act it out i saw him on a
                                         
                                         couple different ones wow yeah yeah springer uh everyone thought you know springer was real too
                                         
                                         until you it got just obnoxious they kept like running out of crazy things to do it's not real oh yeah no no no are you kidding I can't tell whether you're being
                                         
                                         serious or I didn't know if it was real sometimes things are real I don't think I don't know about
                                         
    
                                         that on Springer I'm not sure though I mean some were so obnoxiously fake like these people break
                                         
                                         they they would have said that by end, they had such bad actors.
                                         
                                         People were, like, laughing at themselves and stuff.
                                         
                                         Dude, some of those shows were great, though.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Some of those, it just, there's moments on those shows.
                                         
                                         It's hilarious that the security guard from Jerry Springer
                                         
                                         ended up with his own TV show because he got so famous
                                         
    
                                         for running up on stage and stopping all the fights.
                                         
                                         Steve Wilkos.
                                         
                                         That's hilarious.
                                         
                                         His show.
                                         
                                         I love flipping those on sometimes if I'm at a hotel or something random.
                                         
                                         You know what I mean?
                                         
                                         Just seeing what people are really watching, the daytime insanity.
                                         
                                         Every now and then you catch a gem.
                                         
    
                                         You catch a gem of an episode.
                                         
                                         One of those Maury Povich's, you are not the father,
                                         
                                         and the guy's dancing and going crazy
                                         
                                         the best one of my favorite ones i was i don't remember which show it was but i was watching

                                         between scenes we're watching tv because sometimes like if they're setting up a scene like if maybe
                                         
                                         if they're special effects or something like you might be there for fucking two hours right
                                         
                                         so we're watching it might even be in rehearsal I don't remember because it was during the day.
                                         
    
                                         But we're watching the show, and this girl has this real slutty outfit on.
                                         
                                         And she's got all this attitude, and she's telling everybody she's the shit,
                                         
                                         and y'all are just jealous.
                                         
                                         And this one dude gets up, and it was like one of the most calm dismantlings
                                         
                                         of a person I ever saw a guy do the guy got up
                                         
                                         and again i'm i don't think he's an actor i don't think he planned this he goes see you could pull
                                         
                                         that off but it's all about your attitude he goes if you had some pizzazz, you could pull that off. But your attitude stank.
                                         
                                         And that made you look nasty.
                                         
    
                                         And the whole place is just...
                                         
                                         It was the timing.
                                         
                                         But your attitude stank.
                                         
                                         And that made you look nasty.
                                         
                                         I fucked it up.
                                         
                                         Dude, it was one of those moments where she has this look on her face like she just got hit with a fucking Mike Tyson right hand.
                                         
                                         Like Deontay Wilder just bombed on her.

                                         If you watch a religious show, you'll get one of those moments sometimes.
                                         
                                         Every now and then, they'll just say something so ridiculous.

                                         know it ends up being too rhythmic sometimes at the end like everybody that would walk off would
                                         
                                         always walk off on mori to like that green room in the back right down the hallway there's clearly
                                         
    
                                         you know the cameras set up for access for there and everything and it would have been more random
                                         
                                         if they stormed off another direction sometimes something more believable. Well, how about Dr. Phil, right?

                                         well how about you know who salman Rushdie is, right?
                                         
    
                                         Now remind me.
                                         
                                         Salman Rushdie was an author who wrote a book that wasn't even specifically about Islam.
                                         
                                         What was it called again?
                                         
                                         I only remember him from that Seinfeld episode where George met him.
                                         
                                         And he's like, that's Salman Rushdie.
                                         
                                         And they're like, or Kramer did or something.
                                         
                                         So I don't know his name either.
                                         
                                         I don't remember the book. No, I name either. I don't remember the book.
                                         
    
                                         No, I remember him.
                                         
                                         I don't remember the book.
                                         
                                         Whatever the book was, there was a fatwa put out on him, an attack on his life.
                                         
                                         So he had to go into hiding.
                                         
                                         And he was in the hiding forever.
                                         
                                         People were mad at him for years and years and years.
                                         
                                         Satanic verses verses that's it
                                         
                                         satanic verses and people are fear but it did I don't even think it mentions Muhammad in the book

                                         What? That's nuts.
                                         
                                         There's all sorts of hieroglyphs all over it.
                                         
                                         Wow.
                                         
                                         Nobody tagged it?
                                         
                                         No.
                                         
                                         I've only seen it once.
                                         
                                         Do you think they have 24-hour guards around that thing?
                                         
    
                                         I don't think so, but they have guards all over New York
                                         
                                         so someone might find it quickly.
                                         
                                         Those cameras and stuff.
                                         
                                         I'm amazed that no one did anything to fuck with that.
                                         
                                         That seems like a little too precious to be just out in the rain and snow.
                                         
                                         I mean, when was that constructed?
                                         
                                         Is that like an artifact?
                                         
                                         I've looked up this.
                                         
    
                                         I don't remember.
                                         
                                         I've looked it up before.
                                         
                                         It was transported there for a very particular reason,
                                         
                                         but there's these little crab claws at the very bottom of it,
                                         
                                         which are interesting. Well, the whole thing's interesting well the whole thing's the whole thing's cool yeah
                                         
                                         yeah i mean all of the uh hieroglyphs on it too that might be one of those things where you could
                                         
                                         never put that there today if you said uh hey there's this place in egypt i know we can get

                                         That's unbelievable.

                                         and just leave it
                                         
                                         in a park.

                                         granite obelisk first shifted
                                         
                                         from vertical to horizontal, nearly
                                         
                                         crashing to the ground in the process.
                                         
                                         Steam ship.
                                         
    
                                         Oh my god, they brought out a ship.
                                         
                                         200

                                         hanging in here.
                                         
    
                                         32 horses brought it from the banks of the
                                         
                                         East River into Central Park.
                                         
                                         32 horses?
                                         
                                         With railroad ramps, I can imagine that day.
                                         
                                         God.
                                         
                                         That's nuts.
                                         
                                         Took 112 days to move the obelisk
                                         
                                         from a quarantine station to its resting place
                                         
    
                                         wow there you go that's weird it's weird they would just keep it there because again like if
                                         
                                         you had an obelisk that you found it was an ancient historical object and you're like let's
                                         
                                         just leave it in the park put in the middle of the park no you can't do that you asshole you
                                         
                                         have to put a fence around it you have to
                                         
                                         put put it under glass this is this is art that was made thousands of years ago these people are
                                         
                                         dead we don't even know what they were doing it's just sitting there i would that is the place like
                                         
                                         i think if i had the choice if there was one place where i could go in a time machine just
                                         
                                         peek for like an hour just look around and then come back to present day, I think that would be the spot.
                                         
    
                                         I'd want to see what Egypt was like when they were building the pyramids, like in the middle of construction when they were at their peak, when they were building the Great Pyramid of Giza.
                                         
                                         Like what was society like?
                                         
                                         Like what were the people like?
                                         
                                         You could just be a fly on the wall and no one knew you were there.
                                         
                                         See, if they saw you, they'd be like, what is this thing on your wrist? Who are you? were the people like if you could just be a fly on the wall and no one knew you were there see if
                                         
                                         they saw you they'd be like what are you doing what is this thing on your wrist who are you
                                         
                                         why your teeth look so good how come you don't look deformed i'd go back to the j i'd be on
                                         
                                         the grassy knoll that day jfk oh yeah that's good i would i just just would you be on the grassy
                                         
    
                                         knoll or would you be in the book depository? See, if you're in the book depository, then you know that Lee Harvey Oswald isn't there.
                                         
                                         I think he may have even been there.
                                         
                                         I think he may have even been firing, but I don't believe that he was the only one.
                                         
                                         I'm with you.
                                         
                                         That's exactly what I think.
                                         
                                         I think he could have been in on it, and maybe he didn't even fire it.
                                         
                                         But when he said he was a patsy you know the way he said it
                                         
                                         when he got arrested he said i'm just a patsy that is that's like a guy who knew he was going
                                         
    
                                         to get in trouble for something that's not like a regular guy he was not a regular guy
                                         
                                         they easily could have talked him into doing something fucked up and then they did something
                                         
                                         as well and blamed it all on him and they had him set up for it yeah he seemed like a wacky dude someone that did that and made that shot and really wanted him
                                         
                                         dead would own it quite the opposite at that point you're not trying to not go to prison
                                         
                                         well maybe he is but it didn't seem like it he didn't seem like a guy who just shot someone
                                         
                                         he also didn't seem like a guy who was shocked that he was getting arrested for something.
                                         
                                         But you could make someone a patsy back then.
                                         
                                         That was real.
                                         
    
                                         You could set someone up.
                                         
                                         And then you hire Jack Ruby to just run up on the guy and shoot him.
                                         
                                         And he just did it.
                                         
                                         Now the guy's dead.
                                         
                                         Jack Ruby drops the gun.
                                         
                                         They put him in a nice jail cell.
                                         
                                         I don't know if it was a nice jail cell.
                                         
                                         I have no idea. And then what happened to Jack Ruby? Something happened to him, right? Died in a nice jail cell. I don't know if it was a nice jail cell. I have no idea.
                                         
    
                                         And then what happened to Jack Ruby?
                                         
                                         Something happened to him, right?
                                         
                                         Died in jail.
                                         
                                         Got cancer.
                                         
                                         How much do you know about those three guys that they thought might have been it?
                                         
                                         Maybe that's John Gott.
                                         
                                         The three hobos or the three guys under the bridge?
                                         
                                         Well, one of them was Woody Harrelson's dad.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah, they were in the CIA, I read, or they thought they were.
                                         
                                         Who knows?
                                         
                                         Look, Kennedy was not a popular guy by any stretch of the imagination
                                         
                                         with a giant chunk of the population.
                                         
                                         Think about as many people hate Trump right now.
                                         
                                         That's only like – I mean I don't know how many people hated Kennedy.
                                         
                                         But I know that the Bay of Pigs was a huge disaster.
                                         
                                         A lot of military people hated him for that.
                                         
    
                                         Supposedly he wanted to get rid of the NSA supposedly he wanted to get rid of um there was he wanted to do something about the federal
                                         
                                         reserve there was a lot of things that he wanted to do apparently maybe it was a CIA I think it
                                         
                                         was a CIA he was trying to disband one of those but he just he didn't he had a disdain for secrecy
                                         
                                         and secret societies.
                                         
                                         You know, like there was a lot of these like skull and bones type things that like George W. Bush was in.
                                         
                                         Or Herbert Walker Bush, rather, his dad.
                                         
                                         Was George G.W. in Skull and Bones too?
                                         
                                         I think they both were, yeah.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah, I mean, all that wacky shit.

                                         dressing up like a druid what are you doing are you burning an effigy you know a lot of people thought that was all fake until uh alex jones and john ronson was with him right at the yes
                                         
                                         i don't know who was with him actually yes i'm pretty sure google that make sure i'm right
                                         
                                         i think i'm pretty sure it was ronson i'm pretty sure ronson was i know it was he was talking
                                         
    
                                         about it he's talking about it.
                                         
                                         He was talking about it on the podcast about, you know, like that they couldn't believe what they found.
                                         
                                         So this is this place, Bohemian Grove.
                                         
                                         And the idea was that all the elites would go there and they would engage in these occult rituals.
                                         
                                         This is in America?

                                         So Alex films these people worshiping Molech the Owl God and doing this thing.
                                         
                                         He completely sneaks in, just acts like he belongs there, just let him in.

                                         He looks like a Republican.
                                         
                                         They let him through.
                                         
                                         He is there filming them.
                                         
                                         They have an effigy, like a bunch of straw and shit
                                         
                                         that's supposed to represent a person
                                         
                                         that you're sacrificing to Moloch the Owl God.
                                         
    
                                         They're dressed in these crazy hoods.
                                         
                                         They put the effigy down. They have those those loudspeakers they have this crazy speech they give
                                         
                                         it's so weird but these are like legitimate wealthy famous people politicians these people
                                         
                                         are head like heads of banks and shit and they're going there and they're dressing up this is real
                                         
                                         like this isn't like you hear things like that.
                                         
                                         Like, well, that's nonsense, right?
                                         
                                         That's nonsense.
                                         
                                         That doesn't really happen.
                                         
    
                                         There's not a real like Bilderberg meeting.
                                         
                                         They don't really get together and fucking pretend they're burning hookers.
                                         
                                         They really do.
                                         
                                         They really do.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         And so he films this.
                                         
                                         And like, it's one of the first things that got me thinking about conspiracies.
                                         
                                         As much as you can think that Alex is a wacky guy guy he's certainly uh eccentric and he's not always right you know and that's part of the problem
                                         
    
                                         when you're being lied to left and right by so many different things you can get real off on
                                         
                                         things and he did right he's gotten you know he you know, it's been beaten into the ground. But the fact is that there are a certain amount of these things out there like that.
                                         
                                         And if it wasn't for Alex releasing that video, I think most people would think that's nonsense.
                                         
                                         But when you see that video, you have to go, okay, what is this?
                                         
                                         What is going on?
                                         
                                         Are they really dressing up? is this really an occult ritual
                                         
                                         what is this have you ever seen it no show a video bohemian grove just so we can watch the

                                         and they're carrying the effigy, and then they're going to sacrifice it and light it on fire.

                                         Play it out a little bit.

                                         For beauty is eternal.
                                         
                                         So they have this, and we bow to beauty everlasting.

                                         So they're yelling this out.
                                         
                                         This guy's got this on a loudspeaker, and they're engaging in this ritual.
                                         
                                         And then they bring over

                                         That's the question.
                                         
                                         That's what people think about the elites.

                                         live in infamy like for their own personal gain like you're talking about people that that are so
                                         
    
                                         dumb you're willing to you're gonna you're gonna lose the rest of your life because someone's telling you to go shoot Bobby Kennedy
                                         
                                         and you're going to do it in a restaurant in front of everybody
                                         
                                         it was a hotel
                                         
                                         it was in Chicago right?
                                         
                                         no it was in LA
                                         
                                         we actually did Fear Factor
                                         
                                         in the very hotel
                                         
                                         where he was shot
                                         
    
                                         because the hotel eventually shut down
                                         
                                         I don't know how long after the assassination
                                         
                                         but when we were there they would rent it out
                                         
                                         for television shows it's just like weird place man you walk through the kitchen
                                         
                                         where where he got shot like you got he's got shot in the kitchen or they bring him into the kitchen
                                         
                                         probably brought him and i think it was in like the convention part where they're giving a speech
                                         
                                         meeting hall or something and that guy swears that he didn't kill him and
                                         
                                         but listen but play that play that uh that kennedy speech it him. But play that Kennedy speech.
                                         
    
                                         It's actually like a 20-minute speech.
                                         
                                         I think this is the main highlight we're hopefully looking for.
                                         
                                         Yeah, let me hear it.
                                         
                                         The very word secrecy is repugnant in a free and open society.
                                         
                                         And we are as a people, inherently and historically,
                                         
                                         opposed to secret societies, to secret oaths, and to secret proceedings.
                                         
                                         We decided long ago that the dangers of excessive and unwarranted concealment of pertinent facts
                                         
                                         far outweighed the dangers which are cited to justify it.
                                         
    
                                         Even today, there is little value in opposing the threat of a closed society by imitating its arbitrary restrictions.
                                         
                                         Even today, there is little value in ensuring the survival of our nation if our traditions do not survive with it.
                                         
                                         danger that an announced need for increased security will be seized upon by those anxious to expand its meaning to the very limits of official censorship and concealment. That I do
                                         
                                         not intend to permit to the extent that it's in my control. And no official of my administration,
                                         
                                         whether his rank is high or low, civilian or military, should interpret my words here tonight as an excuse to censor the news, to stifle dissent, to cover up our mistakes, or to withhold from the press and the public the facts they deserve to know. For we are opposed around the world by a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy
                                         
                                         that relies primarily on covet means for expanding its sphere of influence,
                                         
                                         on infiltration instead of invasion, on subversion instead of elections,
                                         
                                         on intimidation instead of free choice, on guerrillas by night instead of armies by day.
                                         
    
                                         It is a system which has conscripted vast human and material resources
                                         
                                         into the building of a tightly knit, highly efficient machine
                                         
                                         that combines military, diplomatic, intelligence, economic, scientific, and political operations.
                                         
                                         Its preparations are concealed, not published.
                                         
                                         Its mistakes are buried, not headlined.
                                         
                                         Its dissenters are silenced, not praised.
                                         
                                         No expenditure is questioned.
                                         
                                         No rumor is printed.
                                         
    
                                         No secret is revealed.
                                         
                                         No president should fear public scrutiny of his program for from that scrutiny
                                         
                                         comes understanding and from that understanding comes support or opposition and both are necessary
                                         
                                         that's good i am not asking your newspaper you get it wow crazy right yeah now if you had just
                                         
                                         heard that if someone else was saying that instead of Kennedy, if someone else was saying those very things in front of you
                                         
                                         about how they have an open budget, their findings are all concealed,
                                         
                                         they're a tightly knit group that combines the military and science
                                         
                                         and all that, you'd be like, what?

                                         And the movie also shows how much of the president's ear he really had.
                                         
                                         Because George W. needed him to win it.
                                         
                                         He needed him to run with him to get the real Republican votes at the time.
                                         
                                         For sure.

                                         Let's see.
                                         
                                         According to some estimates, we cannot track $2.3 trillion in transactions.
                                         
                                         $2.3 trillion.
                                         
                                         Okay, now, again, somebody told you literally like right before 9-11 happened
                                         
                                         they said they they couldn't track 2.3 trillion dollars you'd go no that didn't happen that did
                                         
                                         not happen but it did happen what the fuck yeah so think about what kennedy said yeah think about what you saw when you saw that vice movie where dick cheney who was the ceo of
                                         
                                         halburton becomes the vice president and gets billions of dollars in no-bid contracts now
                                         
    
                                         think about we just saw with donald rumsfeld saying they couldn't find $2.3 trillion.
                                         
                                         I don't know. I don't know.
                                         
                                         I don't know.
                                         
                                         It seems like we should have had it.
                                         
                                         We'll keep looking.
                                         
                                         Oh, no.

                                         because it sounds good, but let's make sure it's true, that part blew up but either way that he did say that and then they
                                         
                                         did get hit by a plane a couple of days later it's unbelievable it's so crazy and no one talks
                                         
                                         about that trillion dollars no one talks about the 2.3 trillion two trillions bigger than most
                                         
                                         countries right that could build a whole nother or something. That's 2.3 million million.
                                         
                                         Isn't it?

                                         Is a thousand billion a trillion?

                                         And it's... It's 999 billion trillion is that really what it is it's 999 billion times two it wouldn't be
                                         
                                         billion trillion a couple more billions no it's we're so stupid. It's 100,000 and then a million.
                                         
                                         And then 10 of those is a billion, right?
                                         
                                         Yeah.

                                         100 million is a billion.
                                         
    
                                         It's 100.
                                         
                                         So each one is 100.
                                         
                                         Oh, shit.

                                         oh my god that's a million so that's a billion that's a trillion the word billion is referred
                                         
                                         exclusively to as a million millions a million million millions. Okay. Wow. But how many is a trillion a billion millions?
                                         
    
                                         No, it's a million millions.
                                         
                                         Trillions a million millions.
                                         
                                         Huh?

                                         A million millions.
                                         
    
                                         So it's 2.3 million millions?
                                         
                                         Yeah.

                                         And then boom, plane hits the pentagon
                                         
                                         everybody stops talking about it when was the last time you heard about that 2.3 trillion
                                         
                                         never that didn't come up all the times we were talking about flight 93 let's roll remember that
                                         
                                         let's roll that's what they said right before they went up to kick us and that's why that plane hit
                                         
    
                                         the ground it didn't kill all the fine people that it was going towards

                                         american english the word billion referred exclusively to a million millions however it
                                         
                                         is no longer common and the word is now used to mean 1 000 million so if anybody is in another
                                         
                                         country and is confused that's why it seems like if that would have gotten that makes sense a thousand million makes sense million million doesn't make sense it seems like if
                                         
                                         that would have gotten out that that that that money was missing that the whole country could

                                         Come on.
                                         
                                         So the last four years we've been good.
                                         
                                         Don't pay attention to that.
                                         
                                         Last four years we haven't misspent at all.
                                         
                                         That's what Kennedy was talking about.
                                         
                                         Literally. Not saying that anyone
                                         
    
                                         you know, I'm absolutely
                                         
                                         not saying 9-11 was an inside job.
                                         
                                         I don't think it was.
                                         
                                         But I am saying that when things happen
                                         
                                         and disasters take place people capitalize on those disasters and if it's possible
                                         
                                         that someone was going to set something up some sort of an attack and they're going to do it
                                         
                                         because they were in the process of stealing something or were going to steal something.
                                         
                                         It would have to be a lot.
                                         
    
                                         Wait a minute.
                                         
                                         What are they going to do?
                                         
                                         How much money would it be worth to start a war?
                                         
                                         That might be the number.
                                         
                                         $2.3 trillion.
                                         
                                         That might be the number.
                                         
                                         How much would it cost to start a war if you're evil anyway?
                                         
                                         Would you start a war for $100 million? Man, I can't spread that thin enough. I've got to grease a war if you're evil anyway? Hmm. Would you start a war for 100 million?
                                         
    
                                         Man, I can't spread that thin enough.
                                         
                                         You know, I've got to grease a lot of palms.
                                         
                                         We're going to start a war.
                                         
                                         Why are we starting a war?
                                         
                                         What's going on?
                                         
                                         Well, we've got to get this fucking oil, man.
                                         
                                         I don't know how to do it.
                                         
                                         I'm thinking of just, I don't like the World Trade Center.
                                         
    
                                         Let's just.
                                         
                                         This is hilarious.
                                         
                                         I just Googled how much have we spent in Afghanistan.
                                         
                                         You want to guess how much that number equals out to?
                                         
                                         Okay, I'm going to guess.
                                         
                                         Ever in Afghanistan?
                                         
                                         No, no.
                                         
                                         This says published.
                                         
    
                                         The thing I just found, which I was going off of,
                                         
                                         Congressional Budget Office report published in October 2007 said,
                                         
                                         oh, this was in a potential spending.
                                         
                                         Okay, don't give us the number, though.
                                         
                                         This was a potential spending, then. This is potential what they wanted to spend
                                         
                                         as of 2007.
                                         
                                         What they wanted to spend?
                                         
                                         Planned spending.
                                         
    
                                         How much did they spend?
                                         
                                         I think they spent way more.
                                         
                                         Let's just guess.
                                         
                                         What do you think the number is?
                                         
                                         This is a tough one.
                                         
                                         In Afghanistan?
                                         
                                         It actually says Iraq in Afghanistan. I'm going i'm gonna go with 113 trillion dollars whoa that's a lot a lot i'm gonna
                                         
                                         go with uh i'm gonna go with uh 100 billion what is it they conveniently planned on spending 2.4
                                         
    
                                         trillion dollars wow which is a very convenient number after we lost 2.4 trillion dollars. Wow. Which is a very convenient number
                                         
                                         after we lost 2.3.
                                         
                                         But they've spent closer
                                         
                                         to like six or so.
                                         
                                         This is the worst.
                                         
                                         This is like if you check
                                         
                                         somebody's accounting books
                                         
                                         and they just have stick figures
                                         
    
                                         with googly eyes drawn on it.
                                         
                                         The fact is
                                         
                                         the exact same amount of money.
                                         
                                         Like what are the odds?
                                         
                                         That is so crazy.
                                         
                                         But it's not like we covered it up good they'll never imagine that that that's your laundering that's your money
                                         
                                         laundering war it's not but it is right like if you're if you are someone that makes weapons
                                         
                                         and you have a huge contract with defense Defense Department and you have the ear of the Defense Department
                                         
    
                                         and you guys play golf and shit
                                         
                                         and you dress up like druids and burn an effigy,
                                         
                                         worship Moloch, the owl god,
                                         
                                         and you start talking and you say,
                                         
                                         Hey, man, what do we got to do to keep this fucking...
                                         
                                         I got these tanks I'm making.
                                         
                                         They are a motherfucker.
                                         
                                         Wouldn't it be great to try them out?
                                         
    
                                         You know, I'll tell you what, I got a deal for you.
                                         
                                         And they just walk around playing golf, talking shit, and the next thing you know.
                                         
                                         I mean, who has the ultimate influence in whether or not there is military action
                                         
                                         and how long that military action goes on for, right?
                                         
                                         Because Bernie Sanders and a lot of these people and Tulsi Gabbard,
                                         
                                         a lot of these people that are running for president say that if they got to,
                                         
                                         one of the things they would do is stop these interventionalist foreign wars
                                         
                                         and this world police wars that we just go on and invade other people's lives,
                                         
    
                                         that we would stop doing that.
                                         
                                         I think that's great.
                                         
                                         Right, but who really gets to say?
                                         
                                         Like who gets to say whether or not, like who talks to Trump and says,
                                         
                                         let's just keep rolling into this place.
                                         
                                         What's rolling?
                                         
                                         There's a fucking problem over there.
                                         
                                         ISIS.
                                         
    
                                         ISIS building up.
                                         
                                         Let's bomb the fuck out of these people.
                                         
                                         Like, who has the real ear?
                                         
                                         I mean, is it generals?
                                         
                                         I mean, is there any industry influence at all from weapons industries or from people who have deals with them?
                                         
                                         I mean, that's what eisenhower
                                         
                                         warned about when he left office you've heard that right yeah that is one of the craziest speeches a
                                         
                                         president has ever said trump says you do have a military industrial complex they do like war
                                         
    
                                         yeah remember he said he tried to pull some troops out and they wouldn't let them? Oh, that's right. Trump said that.
                                         
                                         Don't kid yourself, he says.
                                         
                                         You do have a military-industrial complex.
                                         
                                         They do like war.
                                         
                                         You know, in Syria with the caliphate, so I wipe out 100% of the caliphate.
                                         
                                         That doesn't mean you're not going to have these crazy people going around blowing up stores and blowing up things.
                                         
                                         These are seriously ill people, but I wiped out 100% of the caliphate.
                                         
                                         I said, I want to bring our troops back home.
                                         
    
                                         The place went crazy.
                                         
                                         They want to keep, you have a problem here in Washington.
                                         
                                         They never want to leave.
                                         
                                         I said, you know what I'll do?
                                         
                                         I'll leave a couple hundred soldiers behind, but if it was up to them,
                                         
                                         they'd bring thousands of soldiers in.
                                         
                                         Someday people will explain it.
                                         
                                         But you do have a group, and they call it the military-industrial complex.
                                         
    
                                         They never want to leave.
                                         
                                         They always want to fight.
                                         
                                         No, I didn't want to fight.
                                         
                                         But you do have situations like Iran.
                                         
                                         You can't let them have nuclear weapons.
                                         
                                         You just can't let that happen.
                                         
                                         It goes on.
                                         
                                         See, like, and that's,'s you know that's one of the
                                         
    
                                         that's the thing with trump nobody ever talks about i feel like is it's like we've been pretty
                                         
                                         much anti you know we haven't been swayed into as many wars as i feel like we would have been
                                         
                                         who knows i mean who knows i mean maybe yes maybe no maybe we're closer to war because of him who
                                         
                                         the fuck knows?
                                         
                                         Trump administration considers 14,000 more troops for the Middle East.
                                         
                                         That was last week.
                                         
                                         Disgusting deployment.
                                         
                                         Who knows, man?
                                         
    
                                         Maybe they know things too.
                                         
                                         The thing about talking to people like Jocko Willink and my friend Andy Stump and other folks that have been over there.
                                         
                                         They'll tell you. There's some times where things build up and radicals control cities
                                         
                                         and things get really ugly,
                                         
                                         and they have to have some sort of military intervention
                                         
                                         or these people keep growing.
                                         
                                         That's the other thing that people aren't talking about.
                                         
                                         In Afghanistan in particular,
                                         
    
                                         talking about like in afghanistan in particular the afghanis are working with the soldiers against these terrorist organizations like there's afghanis that are helping u.s soldiers it's not
                                         
                                         like all of the u.s against all of afghanistan no it's that they're combined against ISIS. It's just the whole thing is so crazy that there's these groups, these organizations that are like characters in a James Bond movie or in a comic book.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         Like think about like ISIS, like something like ISIS.
                                         
                                         like something like isis that's like if you had a crazy movie about people that you know had a great leader who's like the spiritual guy lived in the mountains and you know that's osama bin
                                         
                                         laden i mean he is like a character in a movie used to work for the for the good guys then he
                                         
                                         switched over to the bad guys it's like someone in a batman movie right you know yeah lives in caves yeah it's just all of it is weird man oh I mean the whole
                                         
                                         thing about you draw Muhammad they'll kill you like how extreme the religion
                                         
    
                                         is and how devoted people are and you can't question any of it it's the most
                                         
                                         extreme in that regard where it doesn't doesn't allow any questioning of it and
                                         
                                         then you know people can't understand
                                         
                                         that some people practice it the same way some people practice christianity or some people
                                         
                                         practice other things they only they only believe or take part in the positive good parts of the
                                         
                                         religion so there's a lot of people that are muslims that are great people they're really kind
                                         
                                         really well educated wonderful thoughtful people they don't have nothing to do with terrorists and when there
                                         
                                         is some sort of terrorist activity it makes them feel bad that they're getting lumped in
                                         
    
                                         with someone who's doing horrific things these people that you know end up committing to these
                                         
                                         extreme religions i feel like we should be dropping like soccer balls and nintendo switches from airplanes to give them things to do so they're well they're stuck believe in something
                                         
                                         if you're stuck in a place that's got a very rigid religious ideology and radical and you know
                                         
                                         you've been radicalized since you were young and then you got places like yemen right places that
                                         
                                         are getting bombed by the u.s for for fucking robots. Planes are flying overhead. They're gunning down wedding parties accidentally and killing people.
                                         
                                         I mean, that happens.
                                         
                                         It's pretty common, right?
                                         
                                         So you're making more radicals because then there's people who lost their family members to some robot flying in the sky.
                                         
    
                                         Some kid, he's got an Xbox control in his hand.
                                         
                                         He's shooting missiles.
                                         
                                         They say those guys who are those pilots they suffer ptsd as well
                                         
                                         those pilots are weirded out by that shit you know imagine being a drone pilot and you're
                                         
                                         watching something that you kind of know is happening you definitely know it's happening
                                         
                                         right you're controlling it you see it but when you hit that button you watch those missiles
                                         
                                         shoot down hellfire missiles they call them hellfire too which is crazy shoot shoot down into these camps and shoot down into these uh motorcades like you
                                         
                                         know what you just did and most likely you're killing eight out of ten of those people are
                                         
    
                                         innocent and because of the fact that a drone does it we're like what are we gonna do like we had a
                                         
                                         soldier and like hey tony you've got to to do? Like, we had a soldier.
                                         
                                         And like, hey, Tony, you've got to stop killing innocent people.
                                         
                                         Hey, I'm a fucking killer, okay?
                                         
                                         You sent me after those bad guys.
                                         
                                         There's a lot of babies around.
                                         
                                         I had to fucking let them know.
                                         
                                         You ain't going to stop me from getting that bad guy.
                                         
    
                                         There's no way. We would put you in jail.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         But if you have an Xbox controller,
                                         
                                         and you're shooting hellfire missiles into a fucking
                                         
                                         school because you think that there's a terrorist in there like what and you know they set them up
                                         
                                         sometimes too they give bad advice or bad intel yeah so they try to get someone to blow up a school
                                         
                                         or get someone to blow up a wedding party like there's a lot of fuckery involved in anything
                                         
                                         you're doing like that where they know that if you do kill people it's actually bad press it's bad for you public
                                         
    
                                         public perception goes the other way that bad intel something else i've watched they came out
                                         
                                         with another different type of world war ii in color you ever watch world war ii in color i still
                                         
                                         have it oh my god i think it's one though right't it one? They just came out with a second one. I was obsessed with one.
                                         
                                         It's the only thing on Netflix that I've watched like five, six, seven times.
                                         
                                         And they just dropped another one with a whole different footage and a whole different angles
                                         
                                         with historian interviews cut in between and all the old film.
                                         
                                         I can't believe how many cameramen they had shooting this crazy shit back in the day.
                                         
                                         They're on the battlefield
                                         
    
                                         and they're taught you can see it's a tundra people are free the soldiers are freezing i'm
                                         
                                         like who's the guy filming this animals crazy yeah the actual like i can't imagine how they
                                         
                                         were doing this do you think they had to crank it well i don't know probably a small handheld
                                         
                                         like eight millimeters and you think they cranked it while they did it or maybe going mechanical
                                         
                                         like where would the battery be i don't know it seems like it would be right you have to
                                         
                                         they'd probably have to crank it don't you think yeah whoa and that's what they did in the old days
                                         
                                         ready action didn't they do that didn't they crank it i think imagine imagining that like old cameras
                                         
                                         i think so i feel like they cranked them
                                         
    
                                         cameras i think so i feel like they cranked them
                                         
                                         imagine that was not that long ago man that's what's really weird this book right here i had this author in the other day um his name sam sam gwynn uh sc gwynn
                                         
                                         wrote this book uh empire of the summer moon it's fucking amazing man it's about the uh comanches and uh it's about uh the the war they had with uh like
                                         
                                         through texas and oklahoma and went on forever like the comanches were the last holdout against
                                         
                                         the american settlers and events against the soldiers the comanches were the last holdouts
                                         
                                         they were the last like truly wild tribe and they were running the plains for like hundreds and
                                         
                                         hundreds of years of horses and shit but here's the thing man this move this book it's taken place in the mid-1800s to the late
                                         
                                         1800s which is like that's so recently it's so recent yeah the the the the giant rock from egypt
                                         
    
                                         came over in 1888 yes came over in 1888 right it's probably older than that but
                                         
                                         right these people were essentially living a nomadic stone age life everything was leather
                                         
                                         and sinew and buffalo tendons they used to make their bows and their bow strings they made their
                                         
                                         own bows and arrows out of wood,
                                         
                                         and the arrowheads were made out of flint.
                                         
                                         They would chip away expertly,
                                         
                                         and they would run around following buffalo
                                         
                                         and just shoot them with bows and arrows and spear them or run them off cliffs.
                                         
    
                                         They would run them off cliffs and stampedes.
                                         
                                         They'd get to the bottom,
                                         
                                         and there were sometimes so many bodies down in the bottom of these buffalo jumps
                                         
                                         that the rotting would cause
                                         
                                         combustion and they would blow up they would explode and catch fire just because there's
                                         
                                         hundreds and hundreds of dead rotting buffalo on top of each other because they can't eat that many
                                         
                                         like say if you have a tribe you know a tribe of 150 people and you kill a thousand buffalo like
                                         
                                         how many of those are're gonna eat you can't
                                         
    
                                         really eat all of them so they would just let them sit there and they would literally start
                                         
                                         massive wildfires because they would burst into flames i saw bison when i was driving from salt
                                         
                                         lake city to uh some other gig i should be clear i don't think they started massive wildfires. I think they started
                                         
                                         a massive buffalo fire.
                                         
                                         You know,
                                         
                                         the fires of the dead bodies.
                                         
                                         I don't know if there was like
                                         
                                         shit to burn outside of there.
                                         
    
                                         There must be though, right?
                                         
                                         Wait.
                                         
                                         It's probably grass
                                         
                                         and stuff on the ground.
                                         
                                         Oh.
                                         
                                         That's where the buffalo
                                         
                                         were eating.
                                         
                                         But it's at the bottom
                                         
    
                                         of a cliff.
                                         
                                         I don't know what was down there.
                                         
                                         But the,
                                         
                                         you know,
                                         
                                         they had these areas
                                         
                                         that they would call
                                         
                                         buffalo jumps where they would just circle them on this high and circle them on this high yeah yeah
                                         
                                         yeah yeah yell at them these buffalo oh where do i go and they just off the cliff everybody and by
                                         
    
                                         the time you're running to the cliff and you realize like oh my god this is a cliff you try
                                         
                                         to hit the brakes there's a thousand fat fucks behind you pushing you off the cliff wow imagine being
                                         
                                         the first buffalo to get like really close he's like running up to the cliff he's like oh oh oh
                                         
                                         shit oh shit the dumbest fucking giant beast on earth. The dumbest.
                                         
                                         Elephants are smart, right?
                                         
                                         Buffaloes are so dumb.
                                         
                                         They just run it.
                                         
                                         Buffaloes are like, no disrespect to the buffalo,
                                         
    
                                         but they talk in the book about how they would shoot buffalo
                                         
                                         and that everybody had disdain for how dumb the buffalo were.
                                         
                                         I think it probably made it easy for them to almost wipe them out
                                         
                                         to the point of extinction.
                                         
                                         But if you shoot buffalo, one goes down, and the other ones look,
                                         
                                         and they go right back to eating.
                                         
                                         And then another one goes down, and they look,
                                         
                                         and they go back to eating.
                                         
    
                                         You have to literally go out, they were saying,
                                         
                                         and yell at them to get them to move.
                                         
                                         That was the only way you got them away from the ones you shot
                                         
                                         because you wanted to eat the ones you shot.
                                         
                                         So when the ones went down, they were like, Get get out of here get the fuck out of here okay all right
                                         
                                         i was gonna hang around and eat while my friends died a bunch of dummies but meanwhile it's amazing
                                         
                                         animal you know it's like the if like you had a you were gonna say that that God had a plan to provide people with the perfect animal for hunting.
                                         
                                         So he wants you to be eating healthy.
                                         
    
                                         So I'm going to give you millions of this fucking enormous animal that doesn't move when you shoot its friends.
                                         
                                         I'm going to literally fill the planes with these things it's just people were just such cunts that they killed
                                         
                                         them all people were so gross because the buffals are so easy to kill that they just killed them all
                                         
                                         they killed they would have mountains of bones man there's a buffalo jump this was he had the
                                         
                                         bone bonfire shelters was called i had two big events in history where it happened here.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         So they call it the Bonfire because all that blackened shit apparently was because of the fires from the buffaloes hitting and bursting into flames.
                                         
                                         And some of those buffalo jumps, they say to this day, you can find arrowheads if you go wandering around the area because it was so populated by uh native americans at the time but the comanches
                                         
    
                                         dude i think this is uh is this buffalo jump in um montana this one's in texas oh in texas yeah
                                         
                                         so texas with the comanches there's other native american tribes there too but a lot of it was the
                                         
                                         comanches which is in this book a lot of this book book takes place in Texas. It's fucking amazing, dude.
                                         
                                         And so scary.
                                         
                                         There's these buffaloes falling down, hitting a rock.
                                         
                                         Look at that.
                                         
                                         A large rock shelter was a scene of a series of prehistoric buffalo jumps.
                                         
                                         Native American hunters ingeniously stampeded herds of bison over the edge of a cliff, overhanging the shelter in a narrow box canyon that empties into
                                         
    
                                         the rio grande near langtree texas the bison's plunge to their deaths on a rock pile at the
                                         
                                         opening of the shelter and there are historically documented accounts of northern plains indian
                                         
                                         groups using this effective if indiscriminate technique of killing bison but you also have to
                                         
                                         remember back then there was so many bison that if they
                                         
                                         thought they killed a couple extra thousand they didn't give a fuck they were everywhere
                                         
                                         there were so many of them and here's why that happened here's where it gets even weirder
                                         
                                         they think that that happened because people got smallpox and it killed like 90 of the native
                                         
                                         american population so when the europeans came over in the 1500s
                                         
    
                                         and the whatever it was when cortez came over here what was that was that the 1500s
                                         
                                         anyway when those guys came over and brought smallpox it just wiped out like most of the
                                         
                                         population so the buffalo who really their major predator was people especially native americans
                                         
                                         especially once they figured out how to ride horses.
                                         
                                         But now all those dudes died.
                                         
                                         And so the buffalo went ham, just fucked up a storm,
                                         
                                         and then there was millions of them.
                                         
                                         This is author Dan Flores.
                                         
    
                                         It has this whole paper that he wrote on it.
                                         
                                         What is it called?
                                         
                                         Bison ecology, bison diplomacy, I think it's called.
                                         
                                         Something along those lines.
                                         
                                         But it's crazy. You hear about the fate of the bison diplomacy, I think it's called. Something along those lines. But it's crazy.
                                         
                                         You hear about the fate of the bison in North America.
                                         
                                         It's like the most iconic animal when you really think about the Old West.
                                         
                                         If there was one animal you think about the Old West, maybe it'd be horses,
                                         
    
                                         but more likely it'd be a bison.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Why do they call Buffalo, Buffalo, the city of Buffalo?
                                         
                                         Good question.
                                         
                                         Because a bison is not
                                         
                                         technically the same as a buffalo because those people don't move when they should too
                                         
                                         he's son of a bitch he snuck that in good

                                         seems like i i don't know maybe there's a good pause It seems like
                                         
                                         I don't know
                                         
                                         Maybe there was a lot of buffalo back then
                                         
                                         There was buffalo everywhere
                                         
                                         They were like elk
                                         
                                         Elk were in literally every state
                                         
                                         Pretty much
                                         
                                         People were gross man
                                         
    
                                         We killed everything
                                         
                                         The quick question of what's the difference
                                         
                                         Contrary to the song,
                                         
                                         buffalo do not roam in American West.
                                         
                                         They're indigenous to South Asia and Africa.
                                         
                                         Buffalo.
                                         
                                         While bison are found in North America.
                                         
                                         Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         They call it American buffalo, but it's a bison.
                                         
                                         It's a different animal.
                                         
                                         The buffalo that you get in Asia and Asian water buffalo,
                                         
                                         those are the ones that they get that are in Australia.
                                         
                                         They brought those over to Australia.
                                         
                                         And, dude, they got a mess over there.
                                         
                                         There's nothing that kills them.
                                         
    
                                         So they're just all over the place.
                                         
                                         And they destroy the land.
                                         
                                         They're so big.
                                         
                                         There's so many of them.
                                         
                                         And they're wild.
                                         
                                         They even have wild domestic cows that grow out of control.
                                         
                                         And the males become like super

                                         In the real world, he would be dead as fuck.
                                         
                                         That thing would just smash him.
                                         
                                         He's like, all right, I'm going to just touch your head.

                                         And then the bull just gave in and went down.
                                         
                                         Wow.

                                         That girl with the camera.
                                         
                                         No.
                                         
                                         His co-star.
                                         
                                         Yeah.

                                         She's like, man, I could do that with a bull.
                                         
                                         What else can you do?
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         But that's all around Australia, those big-ass giant bulls.
                                         
                                         And then big-ass scrub bulls, wild domestic cows.
                                         
                                         Australia's a mess in that sense, like wildlife-wise,
                                         
                                         because there's so many things that are invasive.
                                         
    
                                         This last time we were there, for the first time, I actually went to a sanctuary, one of those places,
                                         
                                         with Jeremiah and Joel, and we had a blast, man.
                                         
                                         There are some crazy animals down there.
                                         
                                         We held a koala bear, took a picture with a koala.
                                         
                                         Let me tell you, I feel like the American version of that animal
                                         
                                         seems so cute and soft and light.
                                         
                                         It feels like a stuffed animal, what we think a koala is. Like the American version of that animal seems like so cute and like soft and light.
                                         
                                         It feels like a stuffed animal, what we think a koala is.
                                         
    
                                         And we went to take a picture of this thing.
                                         
                                         And this lady handed me this koala.
                                         
                                         It was like, it felt like it was tiny, right?
                                         
                                         Same size that I thought it would be.
                                         
                                         But the thing was like fucking three bowling balls. It was just so heavy.
                                         
                                         It's a bear.
                                         
                                         It's a real bear, and this is the thing.
                                         
                                         And exactly.
                                         
    
                                         We call it a koala.
                                         
                                         Oh, it's a koala.
                                         
                                         But it should be illegal to say it
                                         
                                         without the word bear attached to it,
                                         
                                         because let me tell you,
                                         
                                         this fucking thing,
                                         
                                         they have to feed these things.
                                         
                                         Eucalyptus leaves the entire time.
                                         
    
                                         That's all it eats.
                                         
                                         Well, what I didn't know is that that's all it eats entire time it's all it eats well what they didn't what i what i didn't
                                         
                                         know is that that's all it eats and that's all it does like the second this thing is done with
                                         
                                         with one of the eucalyptus leaves they have to hand it another one because you can feel its energy
                                         
                                         change turns its head and it gets like a fucking little bit of a look like it these things ready
                                         
                                         to fuck you up you have to just keep feeding
                                         
                                         this these are like the drug addicts on an iv drip that are starting to feel pain the second
                                         
                                         they don't have the drip of course like how much nutrition is a goddamn eucalyptus leaf
                                         
    
                                         they probably have to eat them they have to stuff themselves with it yep and they're solid as a rock
                                         
                                         so think about all that they must you know oh my god and you know their claws it's just it's
                                         
                                         a real bear man which it wasn't until i held that koala in which i realized the true power of what
                                         
                                         we consider an actual bear oh my god because it's like that thing's this big right and it felt like
                                         
                                         that was that strong and sturdy and they're in their hands and everything you feel everything it makes it to say
                                         
                                         it's a ball of muscle would be a tremendous understatement and honest to god man i thought
                                         
                                         we were gonna go take pictures with these koalas because they have the little girl zoo keepers and
                                         
                                         they seem super comfortable and they're giggling and happy and everything but it ended up being a
                                         
    
                                         serious situation i was scared scared. That's hilarious.
                                         
                                         I was very scared.
                                         
                                         Jeremiah kept making fun of me because of how scared I was.
                                         
                                         I'm like, I'm good.
                                         
                                         She's like, you want to take a group picture with all of you in the bear?
                                         
                                         I'm like, nah, that was enough.
                                         
                                         Good for you.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah, they're right now, because of a gigantic wildfire in Australia,
                                         
                                         they've become functionally extinct,
                                         
                                         which means that 80% of their range has been destroyed by wildfire. So you didn't find anything on that.
                                         
                                         I think my numbers are right.
                                         
                                         If you see, oh, there you guys.
                                         
                                         Yeah, that's us.
                                         
                                         Look how far away I am.
                                         
                                         Look at my hand.
                                         
    
                                         My hand's on Jeremiah's hand.
                                         
                                         Good, because he's thinking about biting you.
                                         
                                         Look.
                                         
                                         It is.
                                         
                                         It's like fucking Tony.
                                         
                                         Fuck you, Tony.
                                         
                                         It's like ready to bite you, bro.
                                         
                                         Look.
                                         
    
                                         Oh, you guys are all handsy with each other.
                                         
                                         That's a little weird.
                                         
                                         You can't tell. There's the final result jeremiah and that dude break off
                                         
                                         and start looking we're literally laughing about that as it's happening like yeah i think i would
                                         
                                         see if you could pull up the article on them uh koalas now functionally extinct in australia
                                         
                                         because i think 80 of their range has been destroyed
                                         
                                         and you know you're talking about the only places where they can live and breed and there's a giant
                                         
                                         population of them koalas aren't functionally extinct but they need our health but what does
                                         
    
                                         it say well this is one scene that see google koalas are functionally extinct i looked it up I did. I looked it up, and that's what popped up.
                                         
                                         And these things stink, too, by the way.
                                         
                                         I was obsessed with the smell of eucalyptus.
                                         
                                         So there's all these new articles that say they aren't extinct.
                                         
                                         Okay, so you know what it probably was?
                                         
                                         I probably got caught up in some scientific clickbait.
                                         
                                         Here's the one that says they may be as of May, so people updated it.
                                         
                                         But it was really recent.
                                         
    
                                         Where are these ones coming from?
                                         
                                         You're looking at older ones from May.
                                         
                                         See how everything's from May?
                                         
                                         New York Times, Forbes, National Geographic.
                                         
                                         No, no, no.
                                         
                                         Look, I'm not saying you're wrong, Jamie.
                                         
                                         What I'm saying is the older ones, when they're saying they were functionally stink, was from May,
                                         
                                         which doesn't totally make sense because were there that many fires in May?
                                         
    
                                         Because aren't these fires real recent?

                                         i guess yeah this is after there were bushfires it overstated claims okay yeah so that's what you
                                         
                                         got to wonder about today man anytime you read an art like i didn't even read it right i just read
                                         
                                         the the head the heading that's what they that's how they're getting you with everything. That's clickbait. And it's almost
                                         
                                         like they have to do that. Like if you have a great article, but it doesn't have a catchy headline,

                                         that's almost a lie. Yeah. You have to get their attention. You have to at least give them the
                                         
    
                                         little bit that the article might not even be about. just have to get them to click it's like a salesman or a sales job or how often

                                         insane dude that is insane wow that's insane we're looking at most of manhattan and then a giant
                                         
                                         chunk of new york state a giant chunk of New York State,
                                         
                                         a giant chunk of Pennsylvania. It looks like New Jersey is completely engulfed.
                                         
                                         That's nuts.
                                         
                                         Wow.
                                         
                                         That's a huge patch and all out into the ocean as well.
                                         
                                         So that's the thing.
                                         
                                         Like if you look at that, if you pulled way back at the entire continent
                                         
    
                                         and looked at that little square, it wouldn't look as big.
                                         
                                         Wow, look at that.
                                         
                                         Pittsburgh to Cleveland.
                                         
                                         Yeah, but go way back.
                                         
                                         No, go way small so you can see the whole continent.
                                         
                                         So that's how you got to think of Australia.
                                         
                                         So that's how Australia looks at it.
                                         
                                         Hopefully he'll get out on his own.
                                         
    
                                         Not much we can do about it.
                                         
                                         You got to get rid of this fucking buffalo.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         Not much we can do about it.
                                         
                                         You've got to get rid of these fucking buffalo.
                                         
                                         Wouldn't it be fun to just get dropped off somewhere like that with a bunch of just like 30 days worth of stuff in a backpack
                                         
                                         to survive and just be lost?
                                         
                                         Except if you break your ankle.
                                         
    
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         And then you're wondering if you're going to die this way.
                                         
                                         That could be the future of vacations, right?
                                         
                                         Australian brush fact check.
                                         
                                         Are this year's fires unprecedented?
                                         
                                         Conservative commentators have pointed out a long history of brush fires.
                                         
                                         Suggest there is nothing unusual about this season.
                                         
                                         Experts disagree.
                                         
    
                                         So it's even worse this season.
                                         
                                         Yeah, that's a big chunk of land, man.
                                         
                                         I was reading or watching a video rather today.
                                         
                                         I put it on my Twitter about this family in Siberberia that they found that it escaped communist
                                         
                                         persecution they were really religious and uh they moved to the middle of siberia and they found them
                                         
                                         one day there and they had no idea world war ii had happened they didn't they were missing out on
                                         
                                         like giant they had no contact with the outside world. The daughters had never seen people before.
                                         
                                         Wow.
                                         
    
                                         Dude.
                                         
                                         Were they homeschooled, the kids?
                                         
                                         I mean, they taught them what they could, but they're all just barely surviving.
                                         
                                         One of them starved to death.
                                         
                                         The mother starved to death.
                                         
                                         And it's a cartoon of it all.
                                         
                                         So it's real weird.
                                         
                                         You watch this cartoon, and this lady just starves to death in the cartoon.
                                         
    
                                         Wow. Yeah, and they were growing their own food and hunting what they can. to death in the cartoon wow yeah and they were
                                         
                                         growing their own food and hunting what they can but they didn't have a bow and arrow they didn't
                                         
                                         have a gun so they would set traps in the in the ground floor like and animals would fall in
                                         
                                         sticks would stab them is that what they looked like yeah not long after they got found
                                         
                                         fucking crazy man so they were i think they were out there for that was 78 when they got found
                                         
                                         i think so i think they were out there pre-world war ii so wrap your head around that
                                         
                                         so they might have been out there for you know 30 plus years and that was the shack they lived in
                                         
                                         that was the place they lived in and they they're in the fucking Taiga, man. They're in Siberia.
                                         
    
                                         They're 150 miles from the nearest city.
                                         
                                         They walked.
                                         
                                         They got 150 miles in and set up shop because some of the people that they were with in their religious group were killed by communists.
                                         
                                         Some were arrested and persecuted and they just had to flee.
                                         
                                         So they took off and they made a little commune up there.
                                         
                                         Good God.
                                         
                                         Good God.
                                         
                                         Freezing cold Siberia, right?
                                         
    
                                         Freezing cold and starving to death.
                                         
                                         The mother starved to death to let the kids live.
                                         
                                         It's crazy.
                                         
                                         They barely made it, and then they started growing some food,
                                         
                                         and they figured out a way to the remaining people that didn't starve to death,
                                         
                                         figured out a way to survive. But they were barely't starve to death figured out a way to survive,
                                         
                                         but they were barely hanging on.
                                         
                                         They were all barefoot when they found them.
                                         
    
                                         They eat their mom?
                                         
                                         Probably not, right?
                                         
                                         You can't bring yourself to eat your own mother, right?
                                         
                                         You might eat your mom.
                                         
                                         If you're starving.
                                         
                                         She's not going to need that meat.
                                         
                                         Right?
                                         
                                         You don't?
                                         
    
                                         I want to look.
                                         
                                         What do you do?
                                         
                                         Do you starve to death with her, or do you eat her?
                                         
                                         I think my mom would want me to eat her. I think my mom would want me to eat her.
                                         
                                         I know your mom would want you to eat her.
                                         
                                         I get to see her this week.
                                         
                                         I get to have my mom's spaghetti sauce for the first time in a year and a half or so.
                                         
                                         Dude, your mom's hilarious.
                                         
    
                                         You should really legitimately write for her and take her on the road.
                                         
                                         Does your mom work? Does she have a job? No. No? She's an old lady now. Dude, take that take her on the road. Does your mom work?
                                         
                                         Does she have a job?
                                         
                                         No.
                                         
                                         No?
                                         
                                         She's an old lady now.
                                         
                                         Dude, take that old lady on the road.
                                         
                                         You're so funny.
                                         
    
                                         I'm telling you, your mom is funny, man.
                                         
                                         She could do it.
                                         
                                         If you wrote for her, that would be a good writing exercise for you.
                                         
                                         Write for your mom.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         And you could, I mean, especially if you brought her to like Kill Tony shows and she goes up
                                         
                                         and just does a couple minutes in these towns.
                                         
                                         Oh, she's definitely going to do Kill Tony again.
                                         
    
                                         I don't think she knows it, but episode 500 is coming fast.
                                         
                                         We're at like 419 right now.
                                         
                                         That's awesome.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Isn't that crazy?
                                         
                                         It's awesome that you guys are doing these big giant road shows too.
                                         
                                         It's fucking killer, man.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
    
                                         We're in the middle of it right now.
                                         
                                         This is the end of it.

                                         For sure.
                                         
                                         You could literally get a career started enrolling from doing Kill Tony with one minute.
                                         
                                         They have.
                                         
                                         I mean, we've had so many people start on Kill Tony, literally start there.
                                         
    
                                         It's amazing.
                                         
                                         Amazing.
                                         
                                         But it's also, it's like, it's a cool way for everyone else to see what it's like when someone's either just doing it for the first time or just, I mean, most people have never been to an open mic night.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         They might see your special online or they might see someone else's special online and go, oh, that's what a comic looks like.
                                         
                                         I don't know how to do that.
                                         
                                         But then you watch an open mic night, especially Kill Tony.
                                         
                                         There's at least, how many people do you get up in an episode about eight eight okay at least three are fucking atrocious yeah atrocious at
                                         
    
                                         least three yeah where you're just like holy shit luckily they're only doing 60 seconds and that's
                                         
                                         what makes it fun that mix in we i do this poll sometimes especially on the road shows we're at
                                         
                                         some point in the episode, I'll go,
                                         
                                         how many out there like it when comedians do good on this show?
                                         
                                         And the crowd always goes like, woo!
                                         
                                         And then I always go, how many of you like it when comedians do bad on this show?
                                         
                                         And the place notoriously goes insane.
                                         
                                         There's this huge roar.
                                         
    
                                         And the cooler the city, the louder that roar is.
                                         
                                         Like, I specifically remember Sydney, Australia was a big one.
                                         
                                         Like, they couldn't believe we were there.
                                         
                                         And they're a part of this thing where they get to hear.
                                         
                                         And then Sydney guys get to go up too and girls.
                                         
                                         And here's the other thing that makes it fun.
                                         
                                         Both ways, it's great.
                                         
                                         If the comic does great, it's great.
                                         
    
                                         Everybody laughs. But if they bomb, there's professional comics ready to talk shit about it.
                                         
                                         Which is maybe even better and if they bomb you know the interview lasts longer than they're
                                         
                                         set that's only 60 seconds the interview can last up to i've spent up to if somebody's super
                                         
                                         interesting i'll spend 15 20 minutes with them then we're just finding out about their life
                                         
                                         they're just a guest on a podcast that's interesting do people get mad like fucking i was waiting when i draw
                                         
                                         now they know i got my fucking laser sharp 60 seconds yeah they know what's up they know that
                                         
                                         yeah because i'll only i'll only keep someone up there if it's super compelling we had this guy

                                         permission no the opposite of that oh bad yeah he's got a strong case of it and uh but he's
                                         
                                         utilizing it and he's murdering and it's a perfect format for a michael lehrer l-e-h-r-e-r
                                         
                                         something like that i'm pretty sure that's his name and uh so at the end of his set at the end
                                         
                                         of this amazing compelling interview uh i invite him back to come back the next week so last night
                                         
                                         or monday night we had him back on and i get nervous when i do things
                                         
                                         like this because i'm like man i hope they have another minute i hope this interview goes as good
                                         
    
                                         as it does last time because now i don't want to feel bad for them and man smashing there he is
                                         
                                         right there he doesn't want to come up on the stage because somebody would have to carry him
                                         
                                         and his his entire body would jolt if he leaves the chair he said that last week
                                         
                                         someone hit him he's wearing the ufc fight gear he can't really tell from this angle but he's
                                         
                                         wearing ufc intro you know what i mean just the normal uh warm-up gear and he's he said it's
                                         
                                         because last week guys were hitting on his uh on his uh girlfriend slash nurse that comes with him
                                         
                                         so he's like he wanted to let these motherfuckers know
                                         
                                         what's up so he's wearing fight gear and he's been doing stand-up for 20 years he's been doing
                                         
    
                                         comedy for 20 years he started in chicago at second city and uh i think he's only been doing
                                         
                                         stand-up like four or five but now he's really leaning into he's utilizing this lou gehrig's
                                         
                                         disease this als that really has a grasp on him.
                                         
                                         But he's really leaning into it.
                                         
                                         He's talking about how he has sex with his girlfriend, but he can't do it any style other than on his back.
                                         
                                         And like all this stuff.
                                         
                                         You got to see him.
                                         
                                         I don't want to.
                                         
    
                                         I'm not giving any of it any justice.
                                         
                                         Lou Gehrig's disease is incurable, right?
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Is it?
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         We have another girl from, we found, we did a show in North Carolina.
                                         
                                         We pulled the name out of a bucket.
                                         
    
                                         She gets carried up by these people.
                                         
                                         A wheelchair comes in behind her.
                                         
                                         They sit her down.
                                         
                                         She was 16 years old.
                                         
                                         Caroline Smith, I believe, is her name.
                                         
                                         She was 16 at the time. And she is a murder.
                                         
                                         She will be absolutely known by the world.
                                         
                                         I think hers is cerebral palsy.
                                         
    
                                         Like a pretty, again, a pretty strong case of it.
                                         
                                         And we had her, we do this thing called Kill Tony Mania,
                                         
                                         where we have some, you know, it's just a big hoopla,

                                         And she wanted to fly out.
                                         
                                         So she hit me up.
                                         
                                         She's like,

                                         And I'm pretty sure Boom Boom fought Alexis Arguello.
                                         
                                         Yeah, he did.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Unbelievable.
                                         
                                         I'm pretty sure he fought him on ABC.
                                         
                                         Those fights, going back and watching them now,
                                         
                                         it's just absolutely insane watching them.
                                         
                                         These guys were hitting the hell out of each other.
                                         
                                         Almost a totally different evolved sport, right?
                                         
                                         So much more defense, I feel like, now.
                                         
    
                                         Today?
                                         
                                         No.
                                         
                                         I think so.
                                         
                                         It depends who you're watching fight.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         I mean, if you're watching Deontay Wilder, it's people getting murked.
                                         
                                         If you're watching Terrence Bud Crawford,
                                         
                                         it's someone intelligently picking somebody apart and smashing them.
                                         
    
                                         There's super high-level boxers today, man.
                                         
                                         Oh, yeah, for sure.
                                         
                                         I'm just talking, I'm thinking more, I think, the accumulation of punches, especially since it was 15 rounds.
                                         
                                         Well, you know, it stopped being 15 rounds because of Ray Mancini and Duk-Ku Kim.
                                         
                                         That was the fight that really was one of the major catalysts for them reducing it to 12 rounds.
                                         
                                         There's a good argument they should reduce it even further.
                                         
                                         Some people think it would be better if all fights were five rounds
                                         
                                         like a world kickboxing fight,
                                         
    
                                         and that guys would just also fight harder.
                                         
                                         They would just go after each other for five rounds.
                                         
                                         It would definitely be more entertaining.
                                         
                                         I wonder, man.
                                         
                                         It's like you want to see a good fight,
                                         
                                         So it's like you want to see a good fight, but do you want to see guys sort of pace themselves to try to fight 12 rounds?
                                         
                                         Or do you want to see guys go ham for six rounds?
                                         
                                         Like what's better?
                                         
    
                                         I don't know.
                                         
                                         It's a good argument.
                                         
                                         The best argument that I ever heard about fights is the one where Firas Ahavi was talking about the other day and I agree with him 100%
                                         
                                         why do you have a time limit?
                                         
                                         just start the fight
                                         
                                         let's see what happens
                                         
                                         let people figure out
                                         
                                         when to expend their energy
                                         
    
                                         why is there breaks?
                                         
                                         why do you have breaks?
                                         
                                         you should
                                         
                                         if we had it like the early days of the UFC
                                         
                                         then you would really understand all the nuances I mean, if we had it like the early days of the UFC,
                                         
                                         then you would really understand all the nuances of comedy.
                                         
                                         You really can't sprint because if you hurt someone and you don't take them out, you're going to get exhausted.
                                         
                                         You blew all your energy out, and the fight goes on forever.
                                         
    
                                         It goes on until somebody wins.
                                         
                                         That's when you really find out what fighting is.
                                         
                                         But if you're going to have boxing like boxing
                                         
                                         those rounds like three minutes three minute rounds is uh with just your hands you can you
                                         
                                         get a lot of action in there if you made that up to five six rounds but i don't know i mean it's
                                         
                                         nothing wrong it's also a great thing seeing someone slowly figure somebody out over five
                                         
                                         six rounds
                                         
                                         and then start working them in the seventh, eighth, ninth, and tenth
                                         
    
                                         and get a knockout in the eleventh or something like that.
                                         
                                         It's always interesting to see someone break someone's style down,
                                         
                                         figure them out, impose their will,
                                         
                                         and then also see their conditioning as the fight goes on,
                                         
                                         their superior conditioning play out.
                                         
                                         There's some guys that just fucking don't get tired man those are the ones
                                         
                                         that i love especially in ufc yeah nate colby joanna these people is a big one yeah colby and
                                         
                                         this weekend that's a big one that's a big one with two guys with enormous gas tanks
                                         
    
                                         what a fascinating fight that is to me because people want to pretend colby can't fight i know right
                                         
                                         when someone's a bad guy that it sways everything in their reasonable rational mind it's so crazy
                                         
                                         watching what he did to robbie lawler make someone so undeniable that it's ridiculous
                                         
                                         meanwhile we're still in denial they're in less denial though than they would be
                                         
                                         they're in less denial than they would be. It's a real problem.
                                         
                                         He's a real problem.
                                         
                                         Because that style of shit-talking is infuriating.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
    
                                         And you can't say a goddamn thing to him because he's in a character.
                                         
                                         So if he pisses you off, you say something back to him,
                                         
                                         yeah, why don't you go suck Trump's dick?

                                         Mr. Trump's a good man.

                                         close fight but kamaru usman um, he's a tank of a man.
                                         
                                         He's a spectacular athlete.
                                         
                                         He's got big power.
                                         
                                         I mean, he only has, I think, a couple knockouts in his career.
                                         
                                         But it's because he learned how to kickbox after he learned how to wrestle.
                                         
                                         He was an elite wrestler.
                                         
                                         But he does put people away.
                                         
                                         And he hurt Tyron Woodley.
                                         
    
                                         And he beat him standing.
                                         
                                         And Tyron is a fan. And I don't think tyron was at his best in that fight i think there were some issues that
                                         
                                         tyron had but it doesn't take anything away from usman usman's been running through competition
                                         
                                         i mean he has one loss in his career 15 wins and then he talked about the loss on the podcast he
                                         
                                         just got caught a rear naked choke got tapped tapped, made a mistake. It happens.
                                         
                                         Didn't know jiu-jitsu that well.
                                         
                                         But as an elite wrestler who's transitioned to become a world-class mixed martial arts fighter,
                                         
                                         you don't get much better.
                                         
    
                                         He was scared.
                                         
                                         Or he was scary, rather.
                                         
                                         Everybody was scared of him.
                                         
                                         Nobody wanted to fight him.
                                         
                                         Everybody was ducking him for the long.
                                         
                                         You never heard anybody call out Kamaru Usman when he was running through competition.
                                         
                                         Everybody was like, you know what?
                                         
                                         This fucking guy and that fight.
                                         
    
                                         They get to Usman and be like, no, no, no.
                                         
                                         He seems like a nice guy.
                                         
                                         I don't want to fight him.
                                         
                                         Colby's my favorite thing to watch right now.
                                         
                                         I think he really gets so many aspects of the basic part of this sport.
                                         
                                         Endurance, learn, train, and be entertaining. Dude, have you seen his new suit? I think he really gets so many aspects of the basic part of this sport. Look at his suits.
                                         
                                         Endurance, learn, train, and be entertaining.
                                         
                                         Dude, have you seen his new suit?
                                         
    
                                         No.
                                         
                                         He's got an orange one now.
                                         
                                         And he brings that Donald Trump Jr. book everywhere he goes.
                                         
                                         I love it.
                                         
                                         He's got an orange suit just as gross as the blue one.
                                         
                                         It is goddamn hilarious.
                                         
                                         There's photos of him at the press conference with an orange suit.
                                         
                                         Bro, he is, look at that.
                                         
    
                                         Look at his orange suit.
                                         
                                         It looks like it costs less than the blue suit.
                                         
                                         I didn't think that was possible.
                                         
                                         And he's a fucking genius.
                                         
                                         Listen, man. This guy, let me mark my words.
                                         
                                         When this guy is done fighting, he will be a huge pro wrestling star.
                                         
                                         Oh, yeah.
                                         
                                         Fucking huge.
                                         
    
                                         And he might do it quick.
                                         
                                         How about that?
                                         
                                         If he wins, if that guy wins
                                         
                                         and maybe he fights masvidal maybe fights one more time he goes right into pro wrestling
                                         
                                         and he may cha-cha-ching and what's crazy is that i've been pitching we do a wrestling podcast
                                         
                                         at the comedy store and i've been pitching for years now i'm gonna read the book he's sitting
                                         
                                         at the press conference reading donald trump jr's. And I've been pitching for years that the WWE is missing out on having this pro-Trump, super bad guy character.
                                         
                                         And then Colby comes out of nowhere and does it in real life in the UFC.
                                         
    
                                         And they still haven't done it in WWE.
                                         
                                         And you can't call him a joke.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         Because he smashes Robbie Lawler.
                                         
                                         He smashes Rafael dos Anjos.
                                         
                                         You watch him fight.

                                         and he is the the guy that you thought of as the wrestler and robbie's the elite striker is a

                                         at the improv in uh in florida west palm beach and afterwards we were in the green room and he's
                                         
                                         like you know i learned a lot about timing and beats from watching you up there tonight.
                                         
                                         Getting those, you know what I mean?
                                         
                                         How you get these laughs using your timing and your pauses and this.
                                         
                                         I need to do more of that.
                                         
    
                                         I'm like, yeah, dude, exactly.
                                         
                                         It's so cool to watch a guy that's, you know, while he being on top of a big business, I feel like a lot of people, you know, their egos, this and that, or it's just about the fight game.
                                         
                                         No, he's not about that at all.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         But it's a genius pursuit.
                                         
                                         And, you know, he has openly now said it.
                                         
                                         We talked about it on the podcast, but he's saying it now.
                                         
                                         He did it on the Candace Owens show.
                                         
    
                                         He's like, they were going to cut him.
                                         
                                         They were going to cut him.
                                         
                                         They had told him that his style wasn't fan friendly.
                                         
                                         And so he beats Damian Mai in Brazil and calls him a bunch of filthy animals.
                                         
                                         Everybody goes crazy.
                                         
                                         And they're like, oh, hold on a second.
                                         
                                         We might have something here.
                                         
                                         So he talked about it on the podcast.
                                         
    
                                         Like, look, I got to do something.
                                         
                                         My career is in jeopardy.
                                         
                                         Like, I'm going to create a character.
                                         
                                         So he created this character.
                                         
                                         Like, I've called his fights before.
                                         
                                         I called his fights early in his career.
                                         
                                         Before that, he was just a really tough guy who had a great gas tank,
                                         
                                         who I knew from my friend Cam Haynes.
                                         
    
                                         He trains with Cam Haynes.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         So just imagine the kind of gas tank this motherfucker must have if you do anything with cam haynes you have to
                                         
                                         have a crazy gas tank well that's the scary thing about him right it's almost like again it's like
                                         
                                         a pro wrestling character already it's like oh you don't know right even if if you don't if if you
                                         
                                         don't somehow find a way to finish it you're stuck in rounds four and now. It's always going to be championship rounds now with this guy,
                                         
                                         and you're going to be stuck in there with him.
                                         
                                         Yeah, if you can't take him out in one, two, or three,
                                         
    
                                         and you can't maintain that pace, and if you try to take him out
                                         
                                         and you emptied your gas tank, he never empties his gas tank.
                                         
                                         And the thing is about his style, this thing that he's doing,
                                         
                                         not his style, but his promotion style,
                                         
                                         with the cheap suits and the
                                         
                                         fucking book you think it's a joke yeah but then you watch his fights if you didn't have any
                                         
                                         information about him and his character and you just watch his fights you'd be like fuck man this
                                         
                                         guy's driven this guy's fucking driven yeah and but then you add into that this character and
                                         
    
                                         everybody's pretending you know that oh that guy's a joke that guy's a joke that joke he's
                                         
                                         running over everybody everybody just because you don't like trump yeah and this is like it's a
                                         
                                         genius thing to attach himself to trump right and what's interesting is like even fighters that
                                         
                                         maybe have paid more dues and maybe are more respected like if you put them all at the table
                                         
                                         like when we were behind when we were backstage at ms and the Rock's there and Dana's got the new BMF belt and all this stuff's happening.
                                         
                                         They were doing that press conference for this one and Max Holloway's on one end and they have these guys on another.
                                         
                                         And being backstage sometimes is a blessing because you can hear things that maybe you wouldn't notice if you're out front, right?
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
    
                                         And the roars and the cheers and the hoopla and everything was every time he talked dude we had a good time just sitting there
                                         
                                         watching it from the sidelines wow it was great insane it's a it's a we're seeing is a master
                                         
                                         class in promotion and adaptation he adapted he created this character and this character is it's
                                         
                                         so obviously a character but it doesn't matter yeah it doesn't
                                         
                                         matter i mean it's so obvious he's not wearing that suit on purpose like it thinks it's good
                                         
                                         looking no he's trying to be a dork yeah he's trying to be a pro trump dork like if i was trump

                                         Look at this.
                                         
                                         He's got a Trump hat on, standing in front of Trump Towers.
                                         
                                         And the style even matches it too, right?
                                         
                                         Because if he was just a quick round one knockout artist,
                                         
    
                                         almost sort of like McGregor-esque, right?
                                         
                                         I still don't think it works as well as a guy that has a never-ending gas tank.
                                         
                                         Never-ending gas tank.
                                         
                                         And can take a tremendous shot, too.
                                         
                                         He's a nightmare for everybody in the division.
                                         
                                         Colby Covington is a fucking nightmare
                                         
                                         because he seems like he's playing.
                                         
                                         He's doing these promos with all these girls in bikinis.
                                         
    
                                         He's fucking reading Donald Trump Jr.'s book.
                                         
                                         He's making it seem like he's a goof and you don't
                                         
                                         notice along the way that this guy's stomping world-class fighters i mean stomping them yeah
                                         
                                         he's fucking amazing what he's done is it's like a master class in promotion for all the young
                                         
                                         fighters coming up i don't necessarily think everybody should do what he's doing right and you know but if i was in if i was in his camp i was one of his friends
                                         
                                         i would for sure be cheering it on like it's hilarious it's hilarious and everybody's mad at
                                         
                                         him everybody and it and it and it goes two ways right, even the people that are mad at him are still sort of laughing.
                                         
                                         And you can usually catch them laughing while booing, in between booing.
                                         
    
                                         That's why the suit is so genius.
                                         
                                         See, he didn't have to do the suit.
                                         
                                         The suit is the fucking piece de resistance.
                                         
                                         Because why else would he wear that fucking suit?
                                         
                                         That suit.
                                         
                                         Here's what's genius about the suit.

                                         Oh, it's so funny.
                                         
                                         But here's the thing, man.
                                         
                                         At the end of the day,
                                         
    
                                         Kamaru Usman is a nightmare for every fucking living human being that's 170 pounds.
                                         
                                         Go back to that real quick.
                                         
                                         Look at that.
                                         
                                         We need to get him that top hat.
                                         
                                         Kamaru Usman is a nightmare
                                         
                                         for every living human that's 170 pounds. And if I wanted to see him that top hat Kamaru Usman is a nightmare for every living human That's 170 pounds
                                         
                                         And if I wanted to see him fight a guy
                                         
                                         That I thought presented a bunch of unique challenges
                                         
    
                                         I would say Colby
                                         
                                         Because Colby has a great wrestling pedigree
                                         
                                         He's fantastic
                                         
                                         Take down defense
                                         
                                         He can wrestle his ass off
                                         
                                         Cardio's never ending
                                         
                                         We saw in the Robbie Lawler fight
                                         
                                         He puts pressure on you
                                         
    
                                         Lands ridiculous strikes
                                         
                                         Can stand in there against one of the elite strikers ever in the welterweight division in robbie lawler
                                         
                                         so like forget all the trump bullshit forget all the the character bullshit and he almost
                                         
                                         should have a name for that guy that but that put that aside just stylistically stylistically it's
                                         
                                         one of the best matchups you're ever going to find for Usman
                                         
                                         because you want to see whether or not Usman can catch him and hurt him you're going to see
                                         
                                         whether or not Colby can can outmaneuver him and outpace him you're going to see whether or not
                                         
                                         Colby could put that kind of pressure on him the way he put it on Robbie and you're going to see
                                         
    
                                         because you know Usman watched that fight for sure and I think
                                         
                                         Robbie was training out of American top team initially and then left American top team to
                                         
                                         go somewhere else you don't have to change that I'm positive of this Robbie left American top
                                         
                                         team so that was another thing that Colby was like shitting on him for leaving American top team
                                         
                                         and you know gotten Robbie's head a little bit from that, like was really ruthless about it.
                                         
                                         But Kamaru Usman came from the Black Zillions,
                                         
                                         which was the rival team across town.
                                         
                                         And now he's with Henry Hooft and I don't know what camp they're calling the
                                         
    
                                         camp now.
                                         
                                         They changed it.
                                         
                                         What is a, find out what camp Kamaru Usman's out of.
                                         
                                         It's essentially Henry Hooft and all the other,
                                         
                                         but Henry Hooft is the kickboxing guy who's with the Black Zillions.
                                         
                                         But it's either way.
                                         
                                         He's got Michael Chandler there.
                                         
                                         They're showing videos of him and Chandler training.
                                         
    
                                         Luke Rockhold was there.
                                         
                                         Super high-level guys there.
                                         
                                         So it's two phenomenal camps.
                                         
                                         Everything lines up perfect.
                                         
                                         You've got this guy in Usman who's just been steamrolling everybody you got a guy in Colby steamrolling everybody

                                         Is it sexual or is it just powerful?
                                         
                                         Is it both?

                                         What else is up on this card?

                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Come to Brooklyn.
                                         
    
                                         Absolutely.
                                         
                                         So Max Holloway and Volkanovski is very interesting.
                                         
                                         Very, very, very interesting because Volkanovski is a tank of a man.
                                         
                                         He has a phenomenal gas tank.
                                         
                                         He puts people away.
                                         
                                         He puts tremendous pressure on guys.
                                         
                                         But Max Holley's the GOAT.
                                         
                                         He's the GOAT.
                                         
    
                                         He's the greatest featherweight of all time.
                                         
                                         And Volkanovski, they have a common opponent in Jose Aldo.
                                         
                                         Volkanovski, he beat Aldo, smothered him, beat him by decision.
                                         
                                         Max Holley's destroyed him. Max Holley's destroyed Aldo. Smothered him. Beat him by decision. Max Holloway's destroyed him.
                                         
                                         Max Holloway's destroyed Aldo.
                                         
                                         Twice.
                                         
                                         And Aldo is another goat.
                                         
                                         I mean, Aldo's one of the greatest featherweights of all time, man.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         And now Aldo's fighting Marlon Marais.
                                         
                                         This is his first fight at bantamweight.
                                         
                                         People are very concerned.
                                         
                                         That's up.
                                         
                                         No, down.
                                         
                                         135.
                                         
                                         Aldo went down?
                                         
    
                                         He went to 35, son.
                                         
                                         Oh, no.

                                         See, Aldo looks gaunt preparing for 135.
                                         
                                         There's photos of him wandering around with his shirt off and stuff.
                                         
                                         I shouldn't say wandering around.
                                         
    
                                         I'm saying hanging around.
                                         
                                         And you see what he looks like.
                                         
                                         Yeah, there's the photos from his

                                         it's crazy so he did it slowly though look how skinny he is man the thing about it though is
                                         
                                         that he did it slowly so he lost the weight on purpose slowly over a long period of time instead
                                         
                                         of just dehydrating the fuck out of himself and
                                         
                                         dropping down you know from 165 to 135 what he did was drop his body weight pretty significantly
                                         
    
                                         he looks quite a bit thinner than he used before so he prepared for it over the long haul and got
                                         
                                         accustomed to being a lighter person if you're gonna do that that's the way to do that yeah the
                                         
                                         difference between dehydrating the shit out of yourself and just losing weight but even at 135 there i'm in a wonder you take a hard punch to
                                         
                                         the head it's just easier to go out maybe but maybe not because he's doing it correctly so
                                         
                                         he's not going to be dehydrated like tj dillashaw was the big example of where someone goes too far. When he went down to 125 pounds, he looked like death.
                                         
                                         He looked terrible.
                                         
                                         And Brendan actually called it.
                                         
                                         Shaub called it.
                                         
    
                                         He was saying, I bet he took it because TJ got busted for EPO.
                                         
                                         He goes, I bet he took it because he couldn't train.
                                         
                                         I bet he was too exhausted to train.
                                         
                                         And that's pretty much what he said.
                                         
                                         He just didn't have any energy.
                                         
                                         It was much harder than they thought physically on him. You're basically starving to train. And that's pretty much what he said. He just didn't have any energy. It was much harder than they thought physically on him.
                                         
                                         You're basically starving to death.
                                         
                                         If you're dropping down, TJ probably walks around the 160s or something,
                                         
    
                                         and then he's getting down to 45.
                                         
                                         That's rough.
                                         
                                         35 is rough.
                                         
                                         I used to do it in high school wrestling.
                                         
                                         The thing I remember the most is having trouble not swallowing the toothpaste and then uh
                                         
                                         water in my mouth while brushing my teeth before those things you literally you're when it hits
                                         
                                         your tongue your body naturally wants to yeah it wants anything it starts the process itself
                                         
                                         see tj's look thick like a snickers there yeah
                                         
    
                                         thicker than a snicker he's probably in that, he's probably in the high 50s.
                                         
                                         Yeah, look at him.
                                         
                                         He looks like Christian Bale's Dick Cheney in that picture.
                                         
                                         I know.
                                         
                                         You can still see his six-packs.
                                         
                                         I'm kidding.
                                         
                                         I'm kidding.
                                         
                                         That's so ridiculous.
                                         
    
                                         But he's with Archuleta, Rampage, Raymond Daniels, who's a world champion kickboxer.
                                         
                                         Is that Louis Anderson in the middle there?
                                         
                                         You son of a bitch.
                                         
                                         Son of a bitch.
                                         
                                         I think that's Rampage's guy.
                                         
                                         I don't know who that is.
                                         
                                         But what I was saying, that the weight cutting for Aldo just seems like,
                                         
                                         makes me scared.
                                         
    
                                         And then you'll, what else is on the card amanda nunez is fighting germaine
                                         
                                         durand to me this is a fight that people are not talking about this is a very interesting fight
                                         
                                         because germaine durand to me um she's lost a couple of times she's lost three times in mma
                                         
                                         um she got submitted earlier on in her career but she's much better now at takedown defense. But as a fighter, like as a kickboxer, she's a multiple-time world champion kickboxer.
                                         
                                         Super legit striker.
                                         
                                         We played a video yesterday of her knocking out a man.
                                         
                                         She had a boxing match, just boxing, with a man and fucking flatlined him with a punch.
                                         
                                         She's a beast, man.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah, I don't ever, I will never doubt Nunes.
                                         
                                         Never.
                                         
                                         Ever in a million years.
                                         
                                         That's the GOAT.
                                         
                                         Yep.
                                         
                                         That's the number one woman of all time.
                                         
                                         Without a doubt.
                                         
                                         Without a doubt.
                                         
    
                                         What a monster.
                                         
                                         And you know what, man?
                                         
                                         Even at other sports, like if she went up to boxing, like, I mean,
                                         
                                         Claressa Shields is a bigger woman, and Claressissa fights at 165, and she's better with her hands.
                                         
                                         I mean, Clarissa is a fantastic boxer.
                                         
                                         You ever watch her videos of her training and fighting?
                                         
                                         Amanda?
                                         
                                         No, Clarissa Shields.
                                         
    
                                         Clarissa Shields is someone who trained a little bit with Cyborg.
                                         
                                         There was some heavy-duty sparring with her and Cyborg leading up to some of Cyborg's fights.
                                         
                                         She's as big as Cyborg.
                                         
                                         She's big.
                                         
                                         But all natural.
                                         
                                         And she might be too big for Amanda because she's like 20 pounds larger at 45
                                         
                                         because I think she's a 65-pound champion.
                                         
                                         But Amanda fought someone who couldn't punch like that.
                                         
    
                                         If she fought someone that was just a really good boxer
                                         
                                         that's a woman that's also 135
                                         
                                         pounds bro she might put him on the moon that lady can punch so hard and she can box like she might
                                         
                                         not be boxing like a world champion boxer because she's adding in takedowns and kicks and this and
                                         
                                         that and all these different things but when you just come to a woman throwing bombs with her hands she knows how to hit you on the fucking chin and her power
                                         
                                         is extraordinary like amanda nunez power is extraordinary her fights with cyborg or fight
                                         
                                         with cyborg rather those knockdowns like holy shit yeah she's standing in the pocket with a
                                         
                                         woman that no one wants to fight in fact a womanermaine Durand to me, she gave up her title.
                                         
    
                                         She's like, nah, I'm good.
                                         
                                         You can have it.
                                         
                                         You can keep that money.
                                         
                                         Fuck you.
                                         
                                         She's like, I'm not fighting that lady.
                                         
                                         Fuck you.
                                         
                                         She gave up her title.
                                         
                                         So she's never fought Cyborg.
                                         
    
                                         Nope.
                                         
                                         Not interested.
                                         
                                         Who did I watch her lose to?
                                         
                                         Holly Holm?
                                         
                                         No.
                                         
                                         You should have watched her lose to Holly Holm,
                                         
                                         but they gave her the decision.
                                         
                                         I thought Holly Holm won the fight,
                                         
    
                                         and I also thought they should have taken a point away from Durandamy
                                         
                                         because Durandamy cracked her twice after the bell,
                                         
                                         and one of them was pretty significant.
                                         
                                         She stunned her.
                                         
                                         Yeah, I remember.
                                         
                                         She hit her after the bell twice, and also Holly dropped her twice.
                                         
                                         Holly dropped her with a question mark kick,
                                         
                                         and Holly also dropped her with a straight left hand.
                                         
    
                                         I felt like Holly did more damage i feel like those two things those knockdowns were big significant moments in the fight and she never did that to holly and then on top of that
                                         
                                         holly should have gotten a point because of that that punch after the bell the elbow up
                                         
                                         there's like twice two different times she got struck after the bell so in my eyes holly should
                                         
                                         have won that fight i thought she won anyway yeah i thought she won because of the bell so in my eyes holly should have won that fight i
                                         
                                         thought she won anyway yeah i thought she won because of the knockdowns i'm like you look at
                                         
                                         that these significant moments where the other fighter got rocked like that means a lot to me
                                         
                                         like when someone gets dropped with a punch like hurt that's that's a big moment like it's not
                                         
                                         counting enough in some cases people are counting like the overall round like with things
                                         
    
                                         are kind of even too much but there's also other good fights on that card marlon mirage jr jose
