Wow. Happy to be here. How's it feel? It's good. It's good to be back.

Yeah. He's already talked more than he did the first time. Yeah. Now he's too talkative. Now we're like, all right like alright John this is not your show do you remember the topic TV yeah television

yeah I'll never forget it very early on have one of the you were he's staying here for a couple days he moved

he's in cause people still people follow you he's at the Corn Fairy Tour it's going it's going great just had a big top top 10 finish

Yeah, standard athlete answer. Yeah, yeah. Just want to thank God. Good start for the year. Good start for the year.

It's got it rolling. Got to go out there every day and compete. Yeah. We're going to have you when you come back. We'll have you be a guest again. You feel you'd be better now. I do. Yeah.

I mean, I think the podcast has changed a lot since I was here. You were still in college. That's true. Yeah. How have we changed? Well, we're still finding our footing, right? I mean, we did an episode. I think we found it.

I think he derailed it. We did an episode called Television with a Professional Golfer. That was our first guest. So we were like, we didn't know what we were doing back then. I thought I was going to get invited for the Kentucky episode. Yeah. But that ship has sailed. Yeah.

Yeah, Nate wasn't even here. We could have invited you. Yeah. Oh, yeah. They could have used you. Yeah, from Oldsboro, Kentucky. Yeah. Yeah, they did good.

Yeah, it would be, yeah, it was when we first did it. That was a long time ago. Yeah. A couple years. You listen to the podcast, and now you're in. You would get it. You'd feel comfortable. I think so.

I think you're a little funnier than you were then. Yeah. I was also trying to find what I was supposed to say on here. I remember being pretty nervous about it. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, well, yeah, it's going to be nervous. It's the same nervous if you have to go hit a golf ball. Yeah.

I mean, I've done a lot of interviews, like athlete interviews, where you just give little answers. I haven't had a lot of back and forth like this. You think, have you had back and forth even since then? Still not. Athletes don't really have to do the back and forth even since then it's still not it at least don't really have to do the back and forth no a little bit more you know you kind of have some like get to know you segments kind of thing on like corn fairy or pga tour yeah so you kind of have some of those questions but not a lot no yeah yeah i would think that like athlete like uh you ever think like to spice an answer up like you ever just

want to yeah i got asked about the super bowl at uh our last event and they were like what's your favorite thing and i thought i gave a pretty like funny answer they didn't even put it on there i'm talking about like the excitement of gambling on you know what's the coin toss going to be, the Gatorade shower, what are the coaches wearing. All the prop bets. Yeah. They laughed even at it and nothing. Yeah. And what got put on?

My pick for the game. Oh. Who'd you pick? Chiefs. Oh. Cha-ching. Yeah. Yeah.

Cha-ching. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know. I don't know. Yeah. Yeah. Cha-ching. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know. They should have. Was any other answer funny from the other golfers? No.

No. They were all just. Maybe it was too much. Like they didn't want it to be that involved. Yeah. Maybe. I don't know. Yeah.

I got a message from a professional golfer after seeing my golf swing saying he could really help me out, send him some videos and he can help me out. Jared Wolf. Oh, yeah. Oh, Jared, yeah. He texted me about the podcast not too long ago

saying, you know, I think he had either maybe unfortunately seen my episode or something. Yeah, what do you tell people when they go watch it? Always, yeah,

to start the episode after the one that we were talking about. Yeah, it's a great podcast past 12 yeah yeah that's nice i didn't know uh i think i know jared i know jared wolf is yeah i don't think i knew he listened to the podcast oh yeah yeah he yeah he lives down in jacksonville i don't know if y'all got linked up when you did a show there yeah maybe we did there's a great chance i've met him and i'm saying saying this, but I don't know. Well, he can fix Brian's swing, huh?

Where does he play now? He should be on our old friends. Another guy, Josh Teeter, big listener of the podcast. He gave you that wedge. Oh, yeah. He sent me a video, actually, of Brian's swing the other day in Puerto Rico. He was playing the tour event last week and he did a remake of your swing, brought the foot up late.

Oh, man. Guys are just mocking me all over the world. It could become a trend. It could be, yeah. Jason Day calls me left foot. Yeah. Yeah. Lift your foot up, Brian.

All right. Well, I just wanted you to... You're staying here, so I wanted you to pop in. Say hello. Where have you been going? Yeah. Because you feel... When you make the PGA Tour,

you can't be bringing corn-fitted people on here. It goes worse. What is this, amateur hour? Yeah, what is this, amateur hour? Seinfeld? Yeah. Remember that episode? Yeah.

TV. What is this, amateur hour? Yeah. What was episode? Yeah. TV. This is amateur hour. Yeah. What was that? That was the Merv Griffin. I know. Why did he say it? Like two animal acts?

Yeah. What is this? Amateur hour? Yeah. He had two animal acts. He goes, what is this? Amateur hour. Yeah.

We're bringing back for scandals and animals. We already did a scandals and animals episode. We do a second one. Okay. Scandals and animals part two. Part two. We can do a part two scandals and animals. Sure. There's. Scandals and Animals Part 2. Part 2. We can do a Part 2 Scandals and Animals. Sure.

There's plenty of scandals and animals. And school. All right. All right. Good to see you, man. Thanks, guys. See you. Take it easy.

We're going to switch them out. We're trading one D1 All-American. Four-time All-American. Yeah. John Augustine Vanderbilt to the original All-American The inaugural The inaugural

The first All-American Greg Warren Everybody's All-American Greg Warren he said All-American wrestler at Missouri Yeah

How hard was it then? Because Aaron pointed out there weren't many states past west of the Mississippi at that time. Yeah. It was easy, Bates. You just sign up.

Was there only 48 states when you wrestled? No. This was during Manifest Destiny. You're still figuring things out. I feel like you guys grossly misjudge my age on this podcast.

I don't. You're not the same age. You talking above the microphone doesn't help. Yeah. Is it coming in now? Yeah. There you go.

It's, yeah, four-time All-American. One time always. One time. But that's unbelievable, though. I mean, I imagine so many people just have no idea that you were an All-American. I try to tell everybody. Yeah. I tell everybody.

Yeah. I tell a lot of people because it's like that's so crazy. Uh-huh. Yeah. Yeah, two D1 athletes right there. And you're an All-American the rest of your life. Once, right? Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah, it's – I mean, I was not like him. I mean, I was a not-seated wrestler coming into the tournament my senior year. I just had sort of the tournament of my life, you know. Just had one match I should not have won. Well, don't downplay it. No, you did good. But it was the difference of age is John, he goes, oh, from Missouri.

And then John goes, oh, it's both SEC. And we're like, no, no. No, man. Wasn't SEC. Yeah. It wasn't SEC. Yeah. It wasn't even Big 12. It was Big 8. It was the Big 8.

Yeah. Oh, that's fun. Oh, that's fun times. That guy sounded pretty good in here, man. Huh? He sounded pretty good in here. Yeah. Yeah, yeah.

We had him. He was the first guest. Me and John come very close. He's the first guest. Me and John come very close. He's the first guest. But he was very nervous. And he was like, just, we weren't, it wasn't, he listened to every episode now. But it was just like, I didn't get him the fairest shot. I'd just like to point out.

He didn't do bad, but he was like. Last week's episode, you guys made fun of me for hanging out with teenagers in the 90s. That's true. I mean, come on. That's true. I mean, come on. That's true. He's like 24. You could be his dad. Yeah, I could be his dad.

Yeah. But I think there's something. Does it not feel different if you're that big of an age gap versus where it's a loose freshman, sophomore in college? So you're trying to spin it like you're a mentor to him more than a friend. Could be a mentor. If John wasn't an All-American golfer, would you want to hang out with him? I would never know John. He's a professional golfer, man.

He's a professional golfer. Yeah, it's crazy. That's nuts. Those guys, I mean, the the corn fairy tour i have got to meet a lot of them and uh they're i mean these guys grind it out dude it's it's it's like the road like comics where you're they do these tours if they make the cut they get a little money like you know if you don't make the cut you don't get any money and you have to pay for all your travel and all your everything until the caddies the caddies man they they do not

get they don't get anything unless you're like unless your guy becomes like giant it's i mean they they have to pay for their own travel their own i mean they're just and they're all like in hotels together uh which is just insane like they're all they like mean, like, it'll be like guys in their 40s, like, sharing hotel rooms, because it's like, you know, you're really just kind of going and crashing, but it's just like, there's not this big money out there for that. No.

It's, I was telling you guys earlier, I read this book called Tales from the Q School by John Feinstein. It's all about sort of that, it a nike tour i think when he wrote that book or it was that what was the next the dot-com tour or something yeah yeah but web.com yeah but he was saying you know he just basically followed all these guys that were sort of on the cusp of the pga and it reminded me a lot of comics uh you know there's there's not a yeah most of the comics i know yeah i feel like I might have that.

This is the I Am In Europe right now, which I guess we're going to do. We'll read the comments first. Yeah, let's just go ahead and do that. We can go ahead and start the comment part. Comments come from Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, Apple Podcast Reviews, and Nateland at natbargetzi.com. Shine Brunhober. Cheyenne? Cheyenne Brunhober.

What would you say? Cheyenne. That's Cheyenne. Cheyenne. Capital of Wyoming. Oh, yeah. Cheyenne. Cheyenne Brunhober.

Cheyenne. Nate said this podcast is just trying to be fun And I really appreciate that It's hard to find a podcast That isn't trying to teach you something Or doesn't have politics on it I just want a podcast That is lighthearted and funny And that's exactly what I found

In Nate Land Keep it up gentlemen There you go How about it That's great That's a line right there We need to put that out She can be our spokesperson

Shane Shane Gentlemen is singular though I think she's just talking to you. Oh. Oh, yeah. Keep it up, gentlemen. Thank you. Thank you. I appreciate that. Master Craftster. Have we had him?

Feels like we have. Yeah. I am curious what the smallest crowd all of you have performed for. I was at a club in Peoria, Illinois once, and it was me and my wife and one other couple. The comedian still did a full set for four people. His opening joke was, please nobody heckle. I don't want to kick out half the crowd.

It's funny. Mine's one person. That's going to be tough to beat. Yeah. Yeah, I can't beat one. I think I've done two. Two people. I've had plenty canceled just because nobody showed up.

Right. I don't know. It's single digits. I don't think I've ever had that small. I think regularly when I was in New York and doing danger fields during the week. Yeah. There was two, four. Yeah.

I've done about as many four-people shows you could do. I mean, in New York, you're just at the beginning, you're just in front of four people regularly. Yeah. And a lot of times you're just trying to keep it going to get more people in. But I mean, you're, I mean, just, you know, the whole, it's so much that it's not even,

you don't even go, man, there's only four people. You just go, okay, and you go up. There is something about New York, because I'd been doing comedy for a long time before I moved to New York. And then you do it in so many different weird scenarios in front of different crowds that I think I did like a last comic standing audition after I'd been there for a few years. And it was really, you would have thought, uncomfortable.

There's no audience. It was like the producers are way in the bass. You just do it. And I was like, this is amazingly comfortable because I've been doing these kinds of crazy things for the last three years. It's like, oh, this is no fun. Yeah, yeah.

They're just tiny, man. It's just tiny, tiny rooms. I mean, yeah, I think I remember doing one gig where we had to get paid and no one was there. So the guy that booked it, he had to sit in the crowd, and then maybe some of the people that worked there sat there. So it might have been like six people. But the people that are not supposed to even be in the show,

they're a part of the show. They're putting on the show. Yeah. They're like, you got to do it. I remember back in Cincinnati when I was early in my career, I was living there, and it was early in my career, I was living there. It was at Go Bananas, the comedy club. And I think we all knew the cutoff.

It was like nine or eight. If you don't have more than eight, there's no show. So there's like four people in there. And we're like, I don't want to do a show for eight people. It's going to be nine at the most. So the comics, as people would walk in, the comics would be like, man, they canceled the show. Just trying to believe. So those people would walk in, the comics would probably be like, man, they canceled the show. Just trying to believe.

So those people would turn around. Yeah, man, I can't believe. No show. Yeah. You realize y'all would have got 30 people. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, that's the crazy.

30 is like an awesome show. 30. I remember when I was living in LA and that was when early on. So, you know, I did probably how you started in New York. You're doing a lot of shows for just comics. Yeah. And I'd come home and, you know, there'd be a 30 people at the open mic in St. Louis and 30 paying people that were going to want to see comedy.

And I was like, this is like doing a theater, man. Yeah. I have no tolerance anymore for like the open mic. It was yeah man there's nobody in there like dude there's 20 people in there move to la or new york and that'll be the greatest show in three years that you do yeah you'll love you'll kill for this audience oh 20 i would travel for it yeah yeah yeah yeah if you went that was the best is like going sometimes on the road new york and then you go do some spots like in a town. And then they're like, oh, it's light.

And you're like, it's 20 people. And you're like. This is electric. Yeah, you go, dude, I might light me because I might go home. Matt B. I wonder if Nate knows that Hello World is the first thing that every computer programmer ever learns how to program. Did you know that? No.

So this is a good example. This is like the most basic piece of JavaScript you learn how to write. You just run it. Boom. Hello World. That's how everybody's taught. Oh, really? I thought maybe your title was an homage to that programming.

Yeah, it is. Tiger Woods. So you have to write document a Java so you have to write document dot write and you have to do all that stuff to get it to yeah for

Hello World to be the output you think they ever like would just have you where you don't have to do that I don't even know what any of this means

I thought this was from Star Wars you ever took a computer programming class no no I don't I think I took basic

and win yeah but those were when did you where we like literally with a Commodore 64 a computer programming class? No. No, I don't. I think I took basic. When? Yeah, but those were when did you, yeah. With a Commodore 64 or whatever. Is that a typewriter class? No, it was a Commodore 64. When did you take a computer? I did take typing.

Greg, when did you? Yeah. Computer was the size of this room. Yeah. Yeah. No, again, man. What are you talking about? I'm not Greg.

I'm not Eddie. Greg's lying. He's lying on the podcast. Oh, I took a, man. What are you talking about, Greg? I'm not 80. Greg's lying. He's lying on the podcast. Oh, I took a computer class. What? In the big eight, they had computers? Yeah. But so you see, you have a screen, right?

And this screen makes it say that screen. And so what if they just said, well, we'll just combine them, and you don't have to do that whole document dot all that kind of stuff yeah because you write document dot right parentheses then hello world you know that's what you do or you do the two the hello world program and then it just says hello world you're like couldn't you talk to the computer and go well i'm gonna just type in hello word the first time but that's what that language is doing yeah but why is telling it what to output you can, well, I'm going to just type in Hello World the first time. But that's what that language is doing. Yeah, but why did it? It's telling it what to output.

You can also, it's not always going to be write Hello World. There could be variables in there that are going to be dictated by other things. This is just a very simple example of it. But yeah, for this, it would be silly to write JavaScript just so you could have Hello World printed on there. It's teaching you a technique. Yeah, write JavaScript just so you could have Hello World printed on there. It's teaching you the technique. Yeah, it's just teaching you. No, why in the top right there is interactive Python course.

It feels like something Nate could take and maybe he'd be interested. What's the node part? Python's a language, too. You don't want to take a Python class. Yeah. What's the node part? Man, I don't know computers at all this way. I don't understand any of this stuff.

I guess the answer is no, Nate did not know that. Matt B. Long story short, why don't they just avoid all that stuff? Yeah. Matthew Welch. My wife was 39 weeks pregnant and really wanted the baby to come. I put on Nate's new special. And after Billy laughing through the whole thing, thing she not only went into labor but had our new baby girl in less than three hours i guess laughter is the best medicine wow wow that's awesome i'll tell you what that makes me

very proud very happy because you always hear you people in the crowd be pregnant and they're like maybe you know but i feel like it's never happened, and now it happened. That is a thing, though? Yeah, because laughing is like – I think it gets you going, I guess. In voluntary. It's like running over speed bumps or gravel roads. I know some women do that. Yeah.

Is that not a real thing? Well, in Alabama, probably. Laura. Yeah, that's what we do. Yeah. Yeah. That's what we did. Yeah. Yeah. But that makes me very happy.

Because it was. Yeah. I mean, laughter. They say, you know, because people can go to something and that kind of like gets it going. And so, man. That's great. Three hours. I mean, it was.

What did they name the kid? Special is good. Hello World. JavaScript. JavaScript. Slash. Welch. Slash Welch. Node. Welch.

Ryan Goodrum. Do you think you've become a better comedian since the podcast started? I guess. I guess you come talk. I don't know. To me, it still feels very two different things, but it's like you're having to be funny a lot more. Like I don't want to like,

I don't want to cross over into that where you're doing the podcast and it sounds like, you know, if you come to a live show, it's like, well, we're just watching a one-hour podcast episode. So I'm trying not to do that. I think it's helped for sure though you know dusty said last week that it helped him on bob and tom he said it was the best he'd ever had because interacting with a bunch of different people yeah helps your timing it helps the timing with that i but if i but i mean i feel like i can go on i don't don't think I'm always the best guest on people's podcast. Because I either want to be in control or it's like I just want to sit.

I get interviewed a lot, though. Because I'll get like, you know, people get tired of talking comedy or something. And I get like comments. And you're like, dude, I don't know what to tell you. I'm getting asked about my comedy. Right. So like, unless you want me. Trust me.

I don't want to. Like, when you go to podcasts, I would. Not that I don't mind if it's a you know we're like really getting into the depths of comedy or whatever i i enjoy i mean i enjoy talking about it but when an audience is listening you're like yeah i can't imagine they want to hear just super inside comedy talk or whatever i like it i mean i know some people like it, but most, you're like, yeah, I'd rather just go talk about whatever and be funny. You know, like that's more fun. I forgot to mention last week's episode, you were on James Corden with Jamie Lee Curtis.

We haven't talked about this. I felt like as a viewer, she was a tough guest to be on with because she was so comfortable with him and so just it's almost like we've all been at a party or somewhere where two friends are so close and you're just the third person there i think you did great with her i just put myself in your shoes i think that would be hard i don't know how you felt we haven't talked about it so oh so yeah when i was on james corden so i did i went and did uh I had two, I did Adam Crowell and Whitney Cummins podcast before that.

So Whitney's went long and we were running late. So when I got there, I've been in that, when I walk out on that stage, I've been there 10 minutes, maybe. And so, which was kind of fun because not that I meant to do it that way. It just, we, you know, with LA traffic and you're in blah, blah, blah, whatever. And so we got running behind. And then so, I mean, I walk in and it's like 10 minutes. I'm just, I mean, within even less than that would be that I'd done that door thing.

That went great, I thought, the knocking on the door, check-in thing. Yeah, that was funny. Like Ian Carmel looked it up. He had a good bit with it, yeah. Yeah, because you don't know what to do. And then you just kind of go out. Then I was like, oh, I was going to go try to pee real fast. And they're like, yeah, you can go pee.

And I'm walking out, but then Jamie Lee Curtis is standing there, and you're like, oh, y'all would be waiting for me. And I was like, why? I just said, oh oh i'm fine because i was like i wouldn't be able to pee even knowing that jamie lee curtis and this whole show is waiting on me got a c-pap hooked up to you yeah oh it would have been brutal so uh but then then they just introduce you then you're just sitting out there and then yeah jamie jamie's been on the show a bunch and like they him and her have a great relationship and they did off the show i knew they were going to do something so i was just trying to like just kind of sit there and

just kind of be out of like try to like lean away from like them hugging or you know i don't want to take they have a real moment and stuff this is my first time on the show and so but uh cordon did really good like bringing me into it. He did, like, keep it. He kept including you. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And she had touched me a lot. Yeah, she did.

She just kept grabbing your knee. But I feel like that was, because she knew she was talking a lot, like, to, it was actually probably a pretty pro move to be like, I'm still involved in this, instead of just straight up, like, acting. So that was actually pretty nice to, like, at least she's trying to like have me be in it but yeah i don't you know when you're on there and you're like i mean it's jamie lee curtis and you're like i'm just a dude like you know you just you and you really feel like a dude with like they're so famous and then uh but yeah it was it ended up being like fun and like corden like, the most nice afterwards.

Like, he was – I said he's been a big fan for a long time. I talked to him a lot kind of after, and, like, that was very cool. He seemed like a really nice guy. That's great. And so, yeah, the whole thing was, you know, that. But, yeah, it's been a lot of press. Man, I could get – I like doing the press, but, man, I could see just getting to the point.

You're like – you can be like Sandler where you're like, you just don't do it. Let it ride. He does it now. Like, oh, it would be so great because it can be a lot. I don't mind it, but it's a lot. When you jam so much of it, that was like a – we found out about that. Like, that's how crazy, like where my schedule can get.

I was supposed to be home Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday. And then we went to, I was in wherever I was at, Street Bat Rouge. And we were waking up to do the podcast here that Monday. And then that Thursday, I think, they were like, you got to go do Cordon. And then it was like, all right, do I go do it or not? And it's like the special is doing really good, and it's like we're getting asked for all this press,

and that's never really happened before. So it's like you kind of got to go jump on it and go do it. So they were like, all right. And so I was like, all right, I guess I'll go do it. So we drove here, woke up at the house at 10, did a podcast, and then I went straight to the airport and then did Cordon, did all those. That Tuesday was from 9 a.m. to we got done at like 7 p.m. And then I had Harper's career day the next day.

And then so I talked about going on a career day. I went and then got there because it was like I just missed. I don't know. I'm not going to talk about this. But like I've just – not that I've missed so much stuff, but I've missed enough stuff. And this is our last year. Like I've gone to a daddy-daughter dance.

I think I've only been to one. I've always ended up missing, you know, Harper does very, very good with all that stuff. But it was like this career, I was like, I wasn't going to miss that career. I was like, I can't miss this. What's career day? It's what it is.

And it's, I don't even know how to describe it. I can guess. You mean you go talk about your career? Yeah. Okay. Yeah, yeah. You didn't have career day? You talked about their career? Yeah. Okay. Yeah, yeah. You didn't have career day? You talked about their career?

Yeah, yeah. Well, now you put it like that. I go, did you never have career day growing up? I don't think so. You would kill now, though, because you could bring snacks from P&G. Oh, yeah, you would be fun. Jeff and- Yeah, whatever.

Y'all didn't have career day back then? They just knew y'all were going to farms or something like that? Y'all already had jobs? day back then? They just knew y'all were going to the farm or something like that? Y'all probably already had jobs. I feel like, dude, a lot of kids, when I went to Coopertown, Robinson County, but I mean, it'd be, Lee and Morgan talked about it, like it'd be tobacco season. You're a kid in school. You're working your farm.

Really? Yeah, like so kids would, like especially the high school kids, the older kids, they would miss a lot of school when it was tobacco. Because they have to go work. Their parents are like, you got to come work the farm. And remember, my dad would get homework. And sometimes you could tell the parents that did the homework because it'd be wrong.

And so the parents would have done the homework just for the kids. The mom might have done the homework just because the kid had to go out there and work in the farm. I had a bit about that on a special a while back about farming where I was like, have you ever heard a farm kid talk about their chores? Like when I was a kid, if I said I was going to do my chores, I was going to roll the garbage cans down the driveway. And if I didn't do my chores, I got grounded.

If a farm kid doesn't do their chores, the bank forecloses on the food. The consequences are a little bit higher. A little bit more serious over there. Yeah, that's funny. The kids are an integral part of the labor. How does that get around labor laws? I don't know. You're trying to ruin mom and pop businesses now

dot government's listening to this podcast and they go oh we never thought about that all these kids working i think you're working for your family yeah you're doing it yeah i guess family restaurants probably right yeah yeah those kids tobacco farming is hard, right? Oh, yeah. Yeah. No, it's tough. Y'all don't have a career day, though? You never had? No, man. So we go.

So this one, I remember, I think I remember them coming and just talk about, like maybe if someone goes in front of the class and says, I'm a fireman or I'm this. This one, we sit at tables and there's a bunch of parents. So the kids line up and they come down and you have like, you know, we had, I had on the phone, we had this podcast just playing. And then I had Laura go with me. I make her go to everything. And then, so Laura is a producer on the podcast and just talking and telling kids.

And the kids just asked me about school and, you know, like, what schooling do you need? Which I'm doing that as a joke. I podcast and just talking and telling kids and the kids just asked me about school and you know like what schooling do you need which i'm doing that as a joke i'm like not much but it's uh did you give away any yeah we give we actually gave away hats uh yeah so it's like was that it was a big hit harper told me we were the second the first one was a guy at my table and he worked for amazon and he gave away these little Amazon trucks. Oh, that's pretty cool. And so Harper was like, I mean, that guy, because I was like, what's the kid saying about the prizes? And she'll just tell you.

They just tell you. She's like, well, yours was second. The trucks were first. I have this jacket. I wear it literally every day. Yeah, I've started running. I'm giving it a go. This is in shape. I don't feel like I'm – I think I'm every day. Yeah, I've started running. I'm giving it a go. This is in shape.

I don't feel like I'm – I think I'm losing weight. I feel like I'm losing weight. My weight is not going down right now. Yeah. I'm having trouble, and I don't know if it's my eating is – it's good, and then it's like I'm worried if I go over it a little bit. But I started doing like a half marathon training thing. Oh, yeah?

Not to really run. I don't know if I'm going to run one, but – Well, a lot of people congratulate you because you've already mentioned that. Good for you, Nate, running this half marathon. Oh, they did? Yeah, you're in it now. Oh, I am running it? Supposedly you can run –

According to the people. Yeah. Three times at what you train at. Oh, yeah. Oh. So if you're running – Well, yeah, I got to look up and see where there'd be a half marathon. Zero times three is zero, unfortunately.

Nashville has one. Nashville has a half marathon? Yeah. I'll see. I mean, I got to see in the day. I always sometimes think, I don't know if I care about the marathon. Like, I'd like to be able to run a half marathon on my own, but like do my own thing. But I mean, like, you know, just do, pick 13 miles somewhere.

Oh, man, get the t-shirt and go out there yeah fun I don't know if that motivates me then uh I I think being able to run I'd like to be able to just be like I got from here to you know somewhere very far like from here 13 McDonald's McDonald's I'd run two of McDonald's we ran ran six miles, almost six miles the other day. When you do the training, it's like four-minute run, then two-minute walk, and then it's back and forth. Then eventually it just gets to like four-minute run, one-minute walk. What kind of shoes are you running?

I just have Nike right now, but they're good running shoes, I guess. They're all cushiony. Yeah, yeah. Running, man, I always thought I would like running the most, and I never did it. And I started doing it now, and it's like how hectic everything gets and busy. It's just very, it feels like once I run, I'm running from everything. That's like the chaos is like you're just running from it.

And you just feel like you're just in your own world and you're just out there. And it's been really great. It really has been great. And I do want to get in shape. I want to get in like, you know, I want to be skinny and like all that stuff. I've never done it. And so I want to do it and uh i gotta do it now before i get to you know yeah i know uh you uh other ages you ever uh think of a premise running

uh some i mean some of you're focusing on um the breathing so much that's the thing is like all of it kind of goes away yeah so i mean i can think of like if i have if i have a joke because i was thinking because i have a couple joke ideas that i was going to do uh i'm going to zany's which no one this is coming two weeks out to do the new material night yeah uh i'm going to yeah so it's like there uh i like i'll i'll just you know for me, I just like, if I have a little thing, then I just kind of run it in my head and I kind of just think about how I'm going to get into it. When I was running, I was running pretty hard for a while in my, I don't know,

30s and maybe a little bit in my 40s, but I would get to a certain point almost towards the end of the run, and I just get one of those, pretty regularly get one of those pretty regularly get one of those like insights like oh that's a that's a thing man you know i gotta remember that that's yeah because your mind is so preoccupied with something else with the pain of running or like i gotta get through this and then you just have that you're not thinking you know yeah yeah yeah yeah you kind of just get yeah you're kind of just in your own yeah and i like the walking like the running and the walking because it's like

then you walk and then you catch your breath and you're out, and then it's like, all right, got to go again. And then you just go and you – and it's like how far can you get removed of not thinking about the time and stuff like that? My dad was a coach, man, so there was no walking. Is he in the room? Is that why he wasn't there? Are you afraid he's listening?

He's going to hear me talking about walking. Yeah. No, but I remember when I was a kid, like that was just the rule. Like you don't walk, you don't walk. Yeah.

You can't, you can't walk. I remember seeing people like in these runs or whatever, and they'd be walking. I'd be like, yeah, these people are like. And now you have a joke about going on your walk. I did have yeah i walk a lot now it's pathetic yeah it's it's really

i feel like such a let your dad down yeah let everybody down yeah yeah yeah yes somebody called it that's the joke i think my neighbor asked me if i was going on my walk. I'm like, my walk? Yeah. Come on, man. That's my walk? Ryan Oglesby. Oglesby. Ryan Oglesby.

Oglesby. Oglesby. I was wondering if you guys would be able to complete the six degrees of Kevin Bacon starting with Nate. I can see Aaron's wheels are turning here. I can do it easily. I can do it too. Way less than six. Go ahead.

I got one too. Nate played golf with Mark Wahlberg. Well, I was going to say it's something you've got to be in. It was photographed. I saw it. That's fine. Is that how you do it? It's not about knowing the person?

It used to be what you were in a picture with. I would say saw it. That's fine. Is that how you do it? It's not about knowing the person? You can do it. It used to be what you were in a picture with. Yeah. I would say play golf with Mark Wahlberg. Mark Wahlberg was in Entourage. Kevin Pollak was in Entourage. Kevin Pollak was in A Few Good Men with Kevin Bacon. Oh, yeah, man.

I don't know if that one. That's a little bit stretching it. Is it like no? Yeah, it's no. They weren't even in the same episode together, Entourage. That's true. Okay. They got to be on screen together.

On screen together. Let me do it the correct way. Okay. Because I've already done it for all of you guys. Okay. You were on episode of Marin. Yeah. Marin was in Joker with Robert De Niro.

Robert De Niro was in Sleepers with Kevin Bacon. Okay. But they have to be on the same screen? Yeah, were they in the same scene? Well, I don't know about the same scene, but they have to at least be in the same movie. Okay. Yeah. I don't see how that's any different than being in different episodes of Andre's.

What was De Niro in Sleepers? I'm sorry? What was De Niro in Sleepers? I don't know. One that was asleep. His character's name. One of the in Sleepers? I don't know. One that was asleep. His character's name. One of the main sleepers. I don't know.

I mean. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It was a CPAP movie. It was a movie about CPAPs. I mean, I think the real way to do Kevin Bacon movies is actor, actor. It's got to even be movies. Oh, okay. Yeah.

Okay. So you were in a movie, right henry phillips yeah yeah you gotta think about it you've been to so many movies i think i did one with henry it was a long time ago yeah i was i was in henry's movie was it punching the clown i was in the second one punching henry punching henry they're both very very funny really very funny jk simmons was. J.K. Simmons was in that movie. Yes, man. Wow. Yeah. He was in Whiplash with Miles Teller. Miles Teller was in Top Gun Maverick with Tom Cruise. Tom Cruise was in A Few Good Men with Kevin Bacon.

Wow. That's right, man. That's well done. That was amazing. That's well done. You can do Aaron? I can do all of us. Yeah.

Aaron and I were a little tougher. Yeah. I did Sprung with Greg Garcia. Greg Garcia was mentioned in an episode of Entourage. Yeah. Kevin Pollak was on Entourage. Kevin Bacon. Yeah, yeah.

Ours are together. We were in Sprung with Garrett Dillahunt. Sure. He was in No Country for Old Men with Tommy Lee Jones. Wow. Tommy Lee Jones was in The Fugitive with Harrison Ford. Harrison Ford was in The Devil's Own with Brad Pitt. Brad Pitt was in Sleepers with Kevin Bacon.

Wow. Wow. That's pretty cool. What is Sleepers? Is it a good movie? It's a great movie, but it's very upsetting. Oh. Yeah, it's very upsetting.

It's a good cast, though. Amazing cast. I read the book, man. It was, yeah. Is it like a scary movie or something? No, it's about- It's fun? It's not fun?

I think one of them was abused as a kid. All of them were abused. Oh, okay. They were all abused as kids. They got revenge. Maybe De Niro was the bad guy. Was he? I was wondering.

Father Bobby. Yeah, that probably. That would fit, right? That's a lot more than... I can't do that. It won an Oscar. No, not me. It would be a fun watch at night.

Not a fun watch, probably. Yeah. It's going watch, probably. Yeah. It's going to be heavy. It's a good acting. It's like a lot of stuff out now that I don't. That's really. I just watched Spencer Confidential. Oh, it's like the.

Confidential. Confidential. He's a PI or whatever. Yeah, Netflix. Movie? Yeah. Well, the girl was in it. Liza Sludge.

Liza was in there, yeah. Okay. Nice job. Pretty fun. Wahlberg, too. Movie? Yeah. Well, the girl was in it. Liza was in there, yeah. Okay. Nice job. Pretty fun. Wahlberg, too. Yeah. Yeah. You know, a good movie, if you ever played the game, maybe I've only done this, where

name two actors, you got to guess what movie they were in together. The movie Heat obviously has De Niro and Al Pacino. Damn. But those are two of the main stars. I thought that was a good one. I thought that was a good one. But there's a lot of Natalie Portman's in that movie. I'm drawing a blank now.

Ashley Judd's in the movie. There's a lot of big actors in that movie that were smaller characters. Yeah, I'm looking at it now. Ted Levine. I don't know Ted Levine. Dennis Haysbert, the Allstate guy. Oh, yeah, man. And he was in The Unit.

Nobody really cares about that TV show. I remember that show, The Unit. I loved The Unit, man. Yeah, I always watched it with my parents. Unit's one of my favorite shows. Hank Azaria. Apu. Bubba from Forrest Gump.

Yeah. He was? Yeah. Tom Sizemore just died. Tom T. Williamson. John Voight. Oh, Val Kilmer. Yeah, Val Kilmer.. Tom Sizemore just died. Williamson. John Voight. Oh, Val Kilmer. Yeah, Val Kilmer.

It's a heck of a cast. You're right, Brian. Good call. Good call. So, yes, we can do Six Degrees Kevin Bacon with all of us. Pretty fun. If Dusty was here, we couldn't. Well, you could probably pick.

I mean, Maren probably interviewed Kevin Bacon. Yeah. Maybe. I was really tryingaren probably interviewed Kevin Bacon. Yeah. Maybe. I was really trying to stick with the thing on screen. Yeah, on screen. Yeah. Yeah. What's Sprung, man?

Sorry, I don't know that. Greg Garcia. Can you believe this? It's on the show. I'll watch it if you guys tell me. It's the hottest show on television. Yeah, it was on Freebie. Our friend Greg Garcia, who created everybody.

My name is Earl. Yeah. He created Sprung, and they're in the show. I'm a prison guard. I was on Freebie our friend Greg Garcia who created everybody my name is Earl yeah he created Sprung and they're in the show I'm a prison guard he's a serial killer yeah

he was Aaron was in the trailer yeah I'm gonna go watch is it a movie or a TV show it's a TV show I'll check it out man yeah

it's great he was in the trailer I mean I'd be watching Sports Center and then they show a commercial and there's Aaron I had like two lines

and one of the lines summarized the whole plot of the show pretty well. Oh really? So it was used in the trailer, yeah. That's fantastic, man.

Pretty cool. I'm going to go check it out. Yeah. Seth Hoffenberg. In a previous episode I remember Aaron mentioning The Sandlot

being one of his favorite childhood movies of all time. Would Aaron put The Sandlot on his Mount Rushmore of greatest sports movies of all time? I don't know if it makes the cut for all sports movies. Baseball movies, it probably makes the cut.

Yeah. What's your other baseball movies? Money Ball. Money Ball is such a good movie. Yeah. Man, that's a great movie. Yeah, it was like the natural. West Wing.

Yeah, Field of Dreams. The West Wing. What's that? West Wing. Fantastic. I'm with him on Sorkin. Yeah, yeah. I pick Sorkin. S, Field of Dreams. The West Wing. What's that? West Wing. Fantastic. I'm with him on Sorkin. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I pick Sorkin.

Sorkin Files. I know you are, but I always thought For Love of the Game is an underrated baseball movie. Mm-hmm. Yeah, it's good. Is it Kevin Costner? Costner, Travolta's wife. Kelly. Kelly.

Kelly Curtis. No, Kelly. Kevin Bacon. Kelly Curtis. No, Kelly. Kevin Bacon. Beautiful woman. She passed away, right? And you know who was in that movie, man? It has a decent role. Greer Barnes.

Oh. He has sort of an interesting, he's a really good actor. Yeah. Yeah, comedian Greer Barnes. Yeah. Greer would destroy in New York. Oh, yeah, yeah. Yeah, you don't want to fuck with Greer.

And low energy, too, right? Kind of low energy. Yeah, murder. Yeah. Yeah. That's fun. Did we say why my thing was PG-13? Abigail told me.

Yeah, we told it. Because I said murder. We told it a couple episodes ago. Okay. Nate Warhowski. Nate Warhowski Warshowski Warshowski In the early 80s

We used to I would have guessed This guy was probably older His early 80s He's probably older In the early 80s I don't I think if you get a name

Nate Warsh Last name Warshowski I think you're born When you're born, you're 40. Yeah. That's a Cold War era name for sure. Yeah. That guy saw me with bull on ice.

Very serious child. For sure. In the early 80s, we used to go to the movie theater a lot, and my mom had this giant leather bag with a flashlight in it. It might be close to mine. I'm old too now. When teenagers would talk during the movies, she would stand up, shine her light on them,

and yell, that's about enough. It was so embarrassing for us kids. Side note, the bag was mostly for smuggling in fried chicken and chocolate chip cookies. Also very embarrassing. Oh, man. You know how you are your little fried chicken at the movie yeah that's like yeah but i mean you go in a movie you're getting a meal now was it

legal back then to smuggle to to bring food in i don't know if any it was ever illegal yeah but maybe i is it is it illegal now or no they don't want you to smuggle food and drinks and that's their idea because that's how those theaters make money yeah yeah i think that's the idea is the is is you don't you don't do it yeah well it's funny to enforce the rules about talking so i did it with harper one time just uh uh just to like kind of do something like that for her you know and like it was fun to like she she was like we're gonna get in trouble i can't get in there i go like, we're going to get in trouble. I can't. Get in there and go, this is, we're not going to get in trouble. Don't worry about it. Like, it's not that I want her to go do stuff, but it's like, it's like my upbringing a little bit.

But then I like her being a little nervous. You know, there's part of me that thinks I want her to be a little nervous about. Live on the edge a little bit. You know, but in that little, you know, in that tiny little way. I remember bringing food into the ball game. My parents would bring food into the ball game. It was for movies. Talkies.

Talkies. Yeah. My dad will tell you. It's hard in a silent film. Are you talking about like a Cardinals game? Yeah, like a Cardinals game. We would bring a cooler full of food in there, man. A cooler?

You just bring a cooler in? That rules. Yeah, I know we did that. That's awesome. My dad, to this day, he has this thing where if you say anything about the ball game, he needs to point out to you, you know, the tickets. That's not even half what you're paying for the ball game. And then he'll break it down for you.

He's got to go through the whole thing. I mean, you know, you've got to park yeah and then the food and then like everybody knows this everybody knows that yeah the food is very expensive at the ballgame like everybody knows that we don't have to say it anymore it's funny too with food though you want to because everybody always says food you're like well you're gonna have to eat and everybody and everybody goes yeah yeah and you're like you really wouldn't have to You could go eat a meal before the game and be completely fine. No. And everybody, it is, because you do that movies, you're like, well, the candy.

And you're like, yeah, you don't have to get the candy. You're like, but you have to. But you kind of do. Yeah. Greg, I thought of a couple of words that you and I, a generation, probably still say that really has gone away. Cell phone? Oh, yeah.

I say cell phone. What do people say? Mobile. Just your phone. Just your phone. Yeah, yes, your phone, yeah. I say cell phone. Okay, well, maybe our generation.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. But do you call it a cell phone? Like I've been saying, man. Yeah. Pretty much the same thing. I definitely used to, but now nobody has a landline anymore. I feel like I don't need to make that distinction. Yeah, it's kind of going away because, I mean, my now nobody has a landline anymore. I feel like I don't need to make that distinction. Yeah, it's kind of going away because, I mean, my mom still has a landline.

But, yeah, just phone. And then big screen TV. Yeah. I feel like all TVs now are big screen, so people just call it a TV. You're right. I haven't heard that in a long time. I remember calling TVs that big screen. I mean, I got one a year ago for the Super Bowl,

and I called it a big screen TV, but everybody's house I go to has a TV just as big as mine usually. So it's going to be really big now. And they're not that expensive anymore, right? No. No. Will Matthews, after listening to the episode after episode of Nate Landon in the car,

a son signed up to do stand-up comedy for his elementary school's talent show. What advice would you give a fourth grader who has a three-minute set to do in front of his entire school? Got to get out to the clubs and work it out. You got to be – Just keep it right. You're going to get tired because these shows are late, but you got to hit it hard. I would say wherever you think the biggest laugh in the joke is, end on that.

End the joke. So wherever you think the biggest laugh is, end on that. Yeah. So if you think about it, well, what's the actual real funny part of the, you know, end on that? Almost for anybody that starts, I think most people think I'm going to get up there and talk and this thing's going to catch fire. Where like, even if it doesn't work, you should at least, you should have a guess on which word they're going to laugh on. Yeah. For each of your things, like put a little mark and say, this is the word they're going to laugh on. for for each each your things like put a little mark and say this is the word they're going to laugh on and you'll at least pause a little bit

yeah yeah and then yeah and just have a yeah just have just yeah just have a know where you're going know what the end the beginning is and know what the end is of the whole set. So then you have, you don't, you won't feel, you know that you know how to end. Like you know how to start it. This one will say at the beginning, this one will say at the end. That's, I think that's the most important thing that even for me now is like, I don't do well if I don't have an ending. Like it's like this new hour I'm doing i finally got a closer and i don't know

if it'll be the closer forever but it's a closer now and it works as a closer and it might be but it's like until i had that i was very lost i really need to i really need to close an opener i can kind of get by because you can say whatever you know like welcome we're having fun or you just you know some dumb that you just can say something to get into something. But the end has to be such a thing that like, if I don't have the end, that's when I feel very lost. Do you have a new hour since Hello World? Yeah.

Man, I got to get going. That's terrible. It's garbage what I got this is my advice Will your kid better have a new three minutes next year I mean for next year's talent my advice is if it doesn't go well you need to sit him down and you need to yell at him

ask him what he did wrong tell him we don't bring up losers in this family that's just and move the mic stand oh yeah man he might not have a mic stand. Oh, yeah, man. He might not have a mic stand. You're right.

That is a... I'd just be talking. Take a towel up there with you. Yeah. I really hope you're not doing that, man. What do you mean? If they laugh, let them laugh. Let the crowd laugh. They just sit there.

Yeah. You really have not looked at me the same since i told you i don't want you to be one of these towel guys man oh man it's a lot of fun in shape i get everybody involved no man dude i do i do crowd work i kind of whip it out you're gonna lean on this thing man it's gonna affect your writing yeah i go out sometimes i lay it down and i stand on it and that's my set. Woo! Woo! I go, man, these kids are crazy. And I wipe my face off. Man. These kids.

These kids getting out of hand. I think the level of when it has to stay on your body because you're using it that much. Yeah, exactly. When you go over the shoulder with that thing, man. It can never be far away. I wear it like a scarf sometimes. I wrap it around, dude. I remember my buddy, Bob Biggerstaff, who Nate knows.

Very, very funny guy. Yeah. And Bob's like slim now, man. He's slimmed down to me. But for a while there, he's getting a little heavy. And he started having a towel on stage. I was like, hey, man, you got to turn it around. You got to reel it in, man.

You want to be one of these guys, man, where you got to have the towel? Yeah. Yeah, he had to walk to my house once. We talked about that on this, right? Uh-uh. I've never heard of this guy. Bob Biggerstaff. Yeah.

I talked about it on something. Very, very funny dude. Real funny. Out of Houston. And he was – when I lived in Queens, we had to, this was when he was bigger, and we had to go, when you had to come to my house from the subway, you had to walk, and then you had to go up all these stairs and over these trail road tracks and then more stairs.

And so it was kind of an uphill climb. You're always kind of tired. Then you had to get, once you got off, you had to go straight up a hill. And so he comes over in Joe List. And, I mean, when he gets to the house, dude, he is furious. And, like, he is like – just wasn't prepared for a mountain climb. And he just sat there quiet for a long time, just getting it together. It was so funny.

He got mad at us one time in New York because we were going somewhere. And I was like, you walk everywhere in New York. I was like, it's just a couple blocks, man. It was a while. He finally just stopped. He just stopped like a child. He was like, he's screaming, screaming at us. You guys lied to me.

This is not, this is not. It's not. It not just a couple blocks. He's lying. And then he went over and got a pretzel at this pretzel stand and sat down and ate the pretzel. That was his form of protest. He also, remember when Joe and Cantor and those guys lived in that place in Queens? Yeah. In Astoria?

Or I think maybe it was Odo or somebody lived below him. But anyways, it was Paul Odo who lived below him or by him. And he was like, hey, Bob, man, it's the bathroom, man. You're going to come stay with me. But the bathroom, man, it's a pretty small bathroom, man. I don't know if you're going to be comfortable. And Bob said he got there and he's like, really? He's's just a bathroom man i'm not i'm not that big like he's like i'm not i'm not that big man it's just a bathroom like he was really he was really angry yeah that they thought

he couldn't use the regular bathroom again bob is very slimmed down yeah yeah that's very funny he texted me his weight today oh yeah yeah Yeah, he texts me his weight now. He's down to 206 in case he needs it. Wow. Wow. Maybe he doesn't want it publicly known, but. No, I guarantee he does. I guarantee he wants everybody to know.

Yeah, yeah. That's awesome. Because he was at like over three. 206, yeah. Yeah, and he's a tall guy. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, he's light. Yeah.

Wow. He could go to your place in New York with no problem now. Probably move there. Yeah. J.J. Gitz. My brother's a comic, and I've heard him describe other comics as hacky a couple of times in the past. I think I understand what it means,

but I'm wondering how you guys personally distinguish between someone who's a hack and someone who's just not good. Hacky. Aaron, go ahead. One's me and one's Brian. You decide which. You decide. It's a viewer's choice.

It's almost that. Hacky is someone that probably does good, but it seems like the material is just, you know, it's like the idea when it's like, you know, the flying an airplane, airplane, why are they selling small peanuts? They still giving small peanuts or something like that. Like they would, and someone's doing, but they could actually be doing good in here. But the material is just kind of like done material. You know, it's just kind of like it's been around for, the material has been around for, we've made enough jokes about planes or –

Yeah, and they're not giving away peanuts anymore. Yeah, yeah. They're not giving away peanuts. It's the allergies. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, so it's like that would be – and someone who's just not good is someone that just doesn't do good on stage. But a hack is like someone that just does, you know, yeah. Familiar.

Very familiar material. And they really have no point of view either i think that almost could be it more than the other one is uh and i almost now i'm switching and saying that's what i would think a hack is someone that's kind of like the the materials feels familiar but then you get no sense of the person out like you're basically like they're doing jokes that you're like, well, anybody could go. If you have confidence, you could just take their jokes and give them to that person.

They would go do good. It's like their material would just work with everybody. They don't have any like. I think this is a good example. On your greatest average American, I think my favorite joke from that special was about peanut allergies where you defended the kids who are all these adults that are just all of a sudden so whatever yeah i've seen so many comics make fun of kids with peanut allergies we were tough there was

no such thing yeah yeah man i just remembered in the new special there's a me taking a shot at kids with peanut allergies. What are you saying, Bates? Are you serious? Yeah, but it's in a creative way. I'm talking about peanut butter. It's not hacky. It's just not good.

I think that's the distinction. I'm just kidding, dude. Relax. I thought we were swinging a mist. I was playing along. I wasn't angry. I was playing a character. I was a foil. I was playing along. I wasn't angry. I was playing a character. I was a foil.

I was playing the straight man. You are a great straight man, by the way. Every interview I see you on, you're so funny because you play a great straight man. Thanks, man. Maybe I'm just straight. Maybe so. You're not even playing. They said Brian plays a straight man on stage at his own act.

A straight man on stage at his own acting stage. Straight man by himself. I laugh at it at least once a month. Bates doing crowd work. Oh, yeah. Did you go to Auburn? No? Okay, that's cool. Yeah, me neither. Hey, Bates, a lot of times The guys will actually

Say something Yeah Let them talk That was good man That was good Yeah I mean The transition was good

But not as that first Commercial you guys did With the Viore Yeah well Yeah I was That one man I was We were two minutes in

And I was like Is this even a It was a testimonial It was No it was just I mean it was just right in Yeah I was like, is this even a – It was a testimonial, though, wasn't it? No, I mean, it was just right in. I didn't even know where – it was great. Burke Scarborough. While dealing with his father's funeral, my best friend's estranged and unstable mother insisted that she would be with him

during this difficult time. He had no interest in this, but she was determined. She didn't have any money, so she held a cab and promised the driver his son would pay if he drove her from LA to Chapel Hill, North Carolina. Like Los Angeles? Yeah. The driver agreed, and when they finally arrived, my furious friend told the driver he had no part in this and wouldn't be paying him a cent. They eventually threw the guy some money for his trouble, but the story made national news. That's crazy. Cabby says he was stiffed on cross-country fare. Yeah.

$8,200 cross-country fare by a female passenger he shuttled from Beverly Hills, California, in North Carolina. That's insane. Why didn't she fly? Maybe she didn't like flying, or I guess she's a mess. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

It would, I mean, you feel, that's like, see, this is a situation where you're like, when you're the cab driver, you got to call, you know, be like, well, I need to talk to your son. And maybe they could have, or they said that. But then also, I try to be a little more, think about it, because I understand be like, well, I need to talk to your son. Yeah. And maybe they could have, or they said that. But then also, I try to be a little more, think about it, because I understand, like, you're also, what if the person's just the nicest person ever, and it's like, what's, he's been put in such a weird situation,

and she's maybe crying and kind of a mess and, like, all this kind of stuff. That's for me. Do you need one? No, I was just going to relay it to you. Do you need coffee? No, no, I'm good. Sure sure i'd love a coffee yeah yeah if it's uh hot that's starbucks ready to drink yeah i'm just uh yeah so so it's like i feel bad for like that kind of thing uh because it's it's yeah she probably all guilted him you know my ex-husband died i'm on my way to the funeral yeah but he's paying for the hotel i think this uh the key piece of information there

is beverly hills california yeah because he probably if you picked up somebody yeah that's they were like no you don't but beverly hills like well this person these crazy people would they have the kind of money to do that's a, that's a good point. Yeah, yeah. If they were from like St. Louis, you'd be like, jeez, there's no way this person. First of all, it would have only been $4,100, okay? That's true. Second of all, there's a lot of wealthy people in St. Louis. I don't know if you've ever heard Anheuser-Busch. I have.

Family lives there. I would think you would even, the company would be like involved. From Alabama, man. I know. Sorry. But he comes from money. That's true. Wouldn't the company be involved?

Which company? The cab company? The cab company. Like, can he just? You mean as far as trying to seek this money? Yeah. West Coast Yellow Cab. Yellow Cab.

The company has been paid another two thousand so it's being paid off in installments but the rest of it's going through small claims courts i mean this i think that article is from 2007 so this is a while ago they agreed to give the woman a 25 discount off the metered rate but that's still six thousand dollars or so yeah i mean yeah i think the cap company would be like no you gotta have some kind of policy yeah yeah yeah we only go to utah or something yeah that's a or you pay me up front you can't just yeah you gotta be like half of it's gotta be paid up front or like you know these stories because they're on radio shows and a lot of times or whatever,

they'll run in these stories and you're like, what? And then you're like, I think there may be some mental illness in here somewhere. It's riddled throughout this story. Yeah. That's one thing living in New York where you start to realize, okay, there's a lot of people in the world. Because you're on the subway and you're like, well, that, oh no, that guy's going through something.

These people are seriously ill. When I see these stories, I laugh a little of people in the world. Because you're on the subway and you're like, well, no, that guy's going through something. These people are seriously ill. When I see these stories, I laugh a little less now because I'm like, I think there may be something here. I felt that way about some video went viral of this guy freaking out at the airport. And I see those all the time of somebody. And it's this guy. And it is very funny when you watch it.

And then you watch it again and you're like, this guy's having the worst day of his life. And everybody's just filming it. And then I feel bad I watched it. And then, you know again, and you're like, this guy's having the worst day of his life, and everybody's just filming it. And then I feel bad I watched it. It's tough. Yeah. Well, I hope you're happy. I don't know how you sleep at night, but.

You contributed to the problem. Yeah. I did, in a way. Yeah. I watched it. I shared it. Yeah, you didn't have to. I shared it over text.

I'm not sharing it publicly. You put it out there. It's a funny video. You put money on it on Facebook. I saw it. It was an ad that came up. I boosted it, yeah. Aaron did do a very funny thing.

He made the worst poster for an upcoming Zany show and sent it to some of his friends. I was in on that whole scam. I saw your thing, and I fell for the whole thing. The only reason I didn't fall for it is because he wanted to ask for my honest opinion. I was like, there's no way Aaron's asking me for my honest opinion about a flyer. This is the poster I made for my show at Zadie's. I literally started to type, hey, man, because he asked, how is this? I literally started to type, hey, man, because he asked, like, how is this?

And I literally started to type, hey, man, it looks pretty good. The font, I would maybe think about another font. I don't drink coffee. I mean, I didn't realize at the time your ear is. You don't drink coffee? No, just tea. Oh, I was like, you had coffee. I thought you had coffee. Tea.

Oh, yeah. Do you need tea? No. Do you want some do you want some tea no i'm good no i'm really good yeah but brian brian caught on right away because this is a joke because he just knew it was that bad no it was really just because i mean because i was asking you for advice yes and i was like there's no way erin is gonna be asking me you were so good at that stuff and that looks like something i would make and i'm like i don't know man i fell for this just this was only a couple days ago yeah yeah i fell for the whole dusty gave me a ton of advice and i kept i felt so bad by the end of it he was like well you know i'd move the flames up a little bit i might he's like i like the idea of it like it's looking nice yeah then you you're a real jerk yeah your friend dusty is genuinely devoting time out of his day to try and help you out and you're you're just yeah you feel good about this your

whole generation of uh what do they call them trollers trolls yeah yeah yeah my wife gave it to me straight though i said how is this she said it's really hideous. She just let me know. That was fun. This shows at 630, that's your first problem. Spoken like a true club runner. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know.

I don't know. I'll probably have been like, yeah, it's fine. Yeah. I think Dustin Dickerson said that. That's what Dustin Dickerson said. He was just like, yeah, I like it. It's fine. Whatever. Yeah. know. It's fine. Yeah, I think Dustin Nickerson said that. That's what Dustin Nickerson said. He was just like, yeah, I like it. It's fine. Whatever.

Yeah, it's cool. Yeah, you'd almost be like, what are you doing, dude? That would be more of it. Just be like, yeah, dude, why are you texting me this? That is the one skill that you get. I'd be confused on that. Well, that's why he didn't say it to you. But he said it to people like us that were like, oh, look to people like us I said can I hear honest thoughts about this flyer

I spent too much time on it I'm just going crazy Just want something simple but artistic I was like yeah sure that's perfectly reasonable It was just good enough It wasn't an obvious joke At least to somebody like me Not to me

To you it was obvious that was bad That's what I mean It's close enough That it's like I guess Well that's the one thing I can do a lot of computer stuff You know

But That thing where you guys Make posters like that I have no concept Yeah The computer school you took Commodore 64 I did

I did take a programming class Yeah I did Yeah I did In college programming class. I did. I did. In college? No, I think it was high school. I think it was high school. There's no way, Greg. There's no way. Yeah, there was like a...

A college programming class in the 80s? It was like a basic or something. There was no... Maybe it was like a extra unit or something. An extra credit...

No, I took it at West Point. I took it at West Point. We had computers I think, like first year. Yeah, first semester. Here's why I don't think you did it, because we're even having to rattle our brain to know if computers were invented. They were. They were.

I went to college. My freshman year of college was 1986, 87. Freshman year of college? This is like, you're telling me possibly late 70s. You're taking, you're in there taking it. I mean, I don't know if Bill Gates is born yet. I know. At West Point, we had a computer class.

It was a radar. The Pentagon? Nomad? What do they call that? Norad. And Nomad. We had the terminals with the green... Oh, yeah. Apple IIs?

Apple IIs we had when i went went to missouri in journalism class we had apple to apple two e's but uh the sort of the ibms with the green uh cursor is that what your computer looked like yeah something like that yeah yeah a floppy disk floppy disk and i remember like the computer crashing and me losing a paper at West Point and freak having to retype the whole thing. We'd have to go to the computer lab. You didn't have a computer. Yeah, yeah.

You had to go to the lab to type stuff in. You had to get the dolly and pull the computer out. We just went over it. It's that size, man. What are you doing, Greg? Doing some late-night homework? Are you walking through the corridor? I just want to see in his head what my life looks like because it's like 1950s that he's saying right now.

I wasn't alive in 1950s. This is what I get every week. I'm so glad you're here. The old guy over here. Well, Bates is younger than I am. Paul Emmy Mueller. Adam Sandler recently made the excellent sports movie Hustle, starring NBA All-Star Anthony Edwards as Kermit Wilt.

If Nate were to make a sports movie as part of the Nate Land movieverse, what sport would it be? What pro athlete would Nate try to recruit to star in it? Probably golf. A golf movie would be John to recruit to star in it? Probably golf. Golf. Golf would be John Augustine. Yeah. You know?

Yeah. I mean, that'd be. Maybe a college wrestler has one more year eligibility. He goes back. His dad coaches him. Yeah. Yeah. Could be you, Greg.

I bring you. That'd be a better story would be you going back. Missouri is riddled with injuries. Yeah. Big tournament. It would have to be serious. They got to come back. It's not a young man's.

It's a young man's sport. It's not. I think golf works a little. I can't. I couldn't wrestle. That's what makes it great. That's why it's so inspiring. Yeah.

If you walk out, your singler just has Ben Gay on it. I got them to sponsor it. Icy Hot on the back. I would. And that's how we make the money. You think of me as that character in Major League with Harris, the old pitcher that was throwing all the garbage, and he had Icy Hot all over him.

Yeah, that's exactly what you see. Yeah. And now that I think of it I'm probably older than that actor was yeah I would say if you're gonna do that

Vecchione is a little he's in a little better shape I think well I think you and Vecchione wrestle to see who

goes to the next level be an interesting match man yeah you and Vecchione I would have to get in shape so my promoter on my tour Tony Hume he wrestled too oh yeah you and vec young i would have to get in shape so my promoter on my tour tony hume

he uh wrestled too oh yeah yeah and uh so yeah we have him vec young is on so i mean we get a round table but you and vec young wrestling would be in real good shape man i'm not so but your level of wrestling is like is you know he was good he wasn't an all-american he's not all-american no he was but he was but he was but he was very good yeah he's very good

not that good yeah but very good Mike's a maniac he just decided yeah Mike takes cold showers which is

that helps he's got me doing some of it oh of course he told me to do that stuff and I it's I don't do the full cold shower I'll end on cold

I'll end on a minute cold. Yeah, minutes, good. Yeah, 60 seconds. 40 or 50 seconds maybe. It's tough. It's hard, man. You act like you did 15 seconds. You do a minute?

I only do 50 seconds. You might be doing a minute. I don't know, man. Are you counting? I'm counting. I'm breathing. Yeah. He's a big breather. Vec me into that breathing stuff for a while i got dizzy a couple

times he did it one day we sat in the chicago theater i think and we're and so he's like talking about like the meditation and all that stuff and uh so you're like all right i get it like you know it's like because it can feel so crazy it's like that's running as i've i breathe good when i run yeah because it's like you're running and you feel like i'm doing something so then they're like i'll just sit in the room together so i was like all right we'll go do it so it's like me vecchione and uh julian mccullough and so we're all in there and julian could do it julian's like a hippie that's like he's on board with every little thing yeah and so they're all in there like you Julian could do it. Julian's like a hippie. That's like he's on board with every little thing. And so they're all in there like, you know, it's like I don't want to do it in the mic, but it's like.

It's like big, big breathing. And breathing works, right? So, like, it does work when I run it. But we're just in a room, and it's loud. And, I mean, we do it for a second, then I just go, boys, I can't. I can't do this and like i was too uncomfortable that i was like doing it with other people i go i was like that's a little like that's enough it's a little california yeah it's it's yeah yeah it is but it like he i did do it for a while because mike told me to do it and uh you do feel almost like a buzzing in your head after you do it, man.

Yeah. Yeah, you let a lot of stuff go. What you should do to get healthy is HelloFresh. HelloFresh. I keep derailing the whole podcast. Derailing? No, that was genius, man. That was impressive.

That was on the level of the aura. You know what's stressful? I feel like people should have to give you acknowledgement when you can catch them where they don't know that it happened. Like if it takes them a second to realize that. For the ad? For the ad. I think we should, you know. Okay.

That's pretty good. If you're listening and you're like, man, that one, you were in it. I was like, what? Yeah, yeah. I didn't recognize it until the promo code. Viore thing, I thought we were just talking. I was just talking, man.

It was smooth. It was real smooth. I like it. That middle one, I could see where you're going with that. Well, it's because Nate wears Viore, and nobody thinks I actually am athletic or eat greens, but I do eat athletic greens. Yeah. I drink it.

Drink it, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. One scoop? Yep. One scoop. Yeah. We're doing it on the road because some vitamins or whatever you need. My vitamins are low or something.

My vitamins. I can guarantee that wasn't what the doctor said. He said your vitamins are low. Your vitamins are low. Yeah, your vitamins are low. I go, golly. Get your vitamins up. I go, shoot it to me straight, doc.

Well, I'm looking at your test here, and your vitamins are low. Which ones? All of them. All of them. A, B, C, D. Yeah. E, I, O, U. It's not the point.

It's just your vitamin. Sometimes why? Because there's no why. I think my vitamin D was, I was like, and I golf, and I was like, I think I get a lot of sun, but I guess just winter. No, that's the thing, man. You got to. Yeah.

But I'm just winter. No, that's the thing, man. You got to. But I'm out there. Yesterday I got, I got, I golfed yesterday. It was super sunny, and I felt like I got so much sun that it was like I felt a little nauseous. You know. Sun poisoning. A little sun poisoning. Yeah, I feel a little, yeah.

But I think it's with winter, I'm sure everybody goes down just because the sun's not out that much. Even during the summer, my doctor has me taking a little vitamin D. Okay, once you go out there. I like the sun. I like feeling the sun. Yeah, me too. Yeah.

Yeah, I would. Sun golf. Yeah. There's an old man conversation right here, dude. Yeah, he goes, hey, another day of the sun. Hey, because the sun. See, the sun is a good day. The sun is an old thing.

Yeah. Yeah. Well, you're not going to see it much longer. It would be an old thing. Only a couple more trips. Every day I go look at it and go, I can't believe you're there. I'm going to miss you. I'm going to miss you.

The sun's a good thing. This week. We're talking about Europe. Europe. I'm in Europe. Right now I'm in Europe. I'm on mission. This sounds a good thing. Talking about Europe. I'm in Europe. Right now, I'm in Europe. I'm amongst it. I was going to ask if you'd been to Europe. I heard you say last week's episode you did a show in... You heard.

You're a part of it. Well, I overheard you. I didn't ask you about it, but I overheard... Word on the street. Word on the street was... I heard you mention Dublin, I believe you said. I've been dublin at a comedy festival the votaphone uh so this is the first headlining tour where it's uh that i've always so that's always shows out in there but this is uh you know you did i did little sets there nothing long yeah uh this will be big, big, big stuff. Volcatority. Let's start there.

Oh, yeah. What's that? So Union Chapel, 7.30 sold out. Very excited. Nice. Wow. London. Then Dublin, already done this. Vicar Street, new venue because we moved up because we sold some more tickets than we thought

so you do a lot of that over there when you go they have like a venue and they're like let's see how it does and then it'll be like a new venue

and then I'll be at the Folk Eterit Eter in Oslo New Orleans coming back home. The routing on this is weird.

Really weird. That's a tough one to get back and forth to. It's like a comedy zone ride. Yeah. It's a very funny inside joke. We all been on that road. I'm going where yeah you got you got two nights an hour apart than a nine hour drive 150 no hotel yeah 150 no hotel i still get all

those the comedy zone ones i don't know if i get comedy zone i get one of them i think we get the same one really business you get them i always i stick because i signed up for a long time ago and i like seeing them and i like it's just i'm still taking them yeah yeah yeah i like to see where they're at and like uh you're just kind of like reminding that it can all go back to just what you're doing it's like a pre you appreciate it every time i yeah i appreciate it where i'm at every time like just being like because you i would take these gigs and you see and they're just yeah you know 200 no hotel in somewhere montana and you're like i mean hotels will be 280 yeah like and hotels are just they're 200 now like they're not right they're they are you're right yeah there's not like they're they're not cheap anymore no the days in is gonna you're 100

after taxes are probably oh yeah it's yeah it's not used to be able to get 60 hotel no change now it's you know that's why i'm an airbnb guy now yeah i just i don't know if i can get with that man don't you have chores and stuff yeah it depends i just had one where literally the checkout instructions were just leave you don't have to do anything it said like we're here to make you feel like guests so just leave see then i would stay yeah because i'm the same way i'm not a big airbnb guy either i've done it and i want to do it because some it makes the most sense it's it's going to be the cheapest especially when i'm on the road

and i got a bunch of guys it's the it's the cheapest for me because i can just put us we can all stay in this one house yeah but it's like yeah the chores of the you know i'm like you're paying for like a i don't know you're just like i don't i want to just go stay at somewhere i don't want to feel like i have to go clean up and like yeah you know and especially if it's like one night you're like i mean for sure it's like a whole thing the worst i've had and i've stayed in dozens now the worst I've had is just take the trash out to the trash can on your way out. That's the worst I've gotten. That's the worst? I've seen horror stories of like mow the lawn and they tell you to do crazy stuff.

Build the couch. The worst I've got is please just take the trash out, which I'm like, that's pretty reasonable to do. You don't do that in a hotel though. That's true. to do. You don't do that in a hotel though. That's true. But you don't have a living room where you can hang out and you don't have a washing machine and a dryer right there in the hotel room.

You do it for just one night too. I'll do it for, um, you're watching. If I'm alone, I'll get a hotel. But if I have a buddy with me, I'm like,

I want to hang. Yeah. So we'll, we'll get a house. Yeah. You watch clothes. I want to throw a shirt in the dryer sometimes, you know,

and you never know what's going to happen. A lot of costume changes. Sweat towel. He's going to wash my towel in between every show. Yeah. He goes back to the Airbnb in between shows. Yeah. With the dryer.

Woo! Yeah, he sounds like he might have to shower in between shows. He's going to wash the towel oh man you can't do this this early man you're right you're right you're right prime of your career you're right uh i hope not i hope yeah because this is as good as it's going to get. I didn't mean it like that. I did not mean it like that. You're destined for big things. I've said that all along. This is the peak.

You're an Adonis. You should be out there swinging. Have you guys ever been to Europe? No. My parents were married there. Europe. Fly to Europe, everybody. That sounds like an ad.

Yeah. You're what? My parents got married in Switzerland. Wow. Yeah. They were- So I'm going to Oslo, Norway. Yeah.

Which is a different country. Yeah. I thought you were thinking of Sweden. I got a cousin who's in Florida. Yeah. You're thinking of Sweden, Norway? No. Sweden is Scandinavian. Switzerland is German, by Germany, I think.

So Norway and Sweden are near each other. Neighbors, I think. But they're separate. But that's two countries. Yeah, and Denmark's up there, too. And it's, oh. Have you ever been to Europe? Never been, no.

Never crossed the pond Really? I'm a world traveler Really? I've been to Italy and I've been to the Netherlands Yeah, but it wasn't laid out like this when he went Yeah, there was still a lot of disputes going on It was more of a mess

Where'd you go? Were you over in Prussia? It was the Holy Lands It was the Holy Lands. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It was the Roman Empire. Rome used all that. What's the Seinfeld, the place that they changed the name? Isn't it?

Oh, Myanmar. Myanmar. Yeah, Burma. Burma? Oh, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. All right, so let me see

Where I'm even going So You're starting off in London No UK Yeah Oh So He's not gonna make it

To these places Uh huh Oh what'd you say London's where you start Oh I thought you said Dublin Yeah Yeah

So London is England Right But it's also UK So the United Kingdom is Uh Scotland is Dublin. Yeah. Yeah. So London is England, but it's also UK. So the United Kingdom is Scotland is England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. That's all. Yeah. And then, but so that's the UK, but then they England's its own.

They're like, we're our own country though. I don't think so. I think it's the United Kingdom. I think all four of those are considered. So there's probably a lot of, that's why the Ireland people could be really upset. Ireland and Northern Ireland have had a history of not liking each other. Yeah. So, yeah, because it doesn't look like Northern Ireland needs to be, right? It looks like you'd be like, well, just be all one thing.

Yeah, it seems like they should have it. So Rory McRoy had a thing with that. Because he's maybe from Northern Ireland and maybe did something from the UK or something like that. Like in something. He's from Northern Ireland. Yeah. But he claimed the UK and it was like not from London.

That said East Tennessee somewhere. Go down. He signed a letter of intent to play golf at East Tennessee State University. That's crazy. That's insane. Yeah. We'll be at their basketball arena April 14th. Come check me out.

You're playing there? Yeah. Me, Nate, and Dusty are opening for him. Yeah. Really? Yeah. basketball arena April 14th come check me out oh yeah you're playing there yeah me, Nate and Dusty are opening for him yeah really yeah man

we're all doing the show we haven't worked out who's going to Wetswater but we're all doing the show together I mean I could take a shot on how I think it

yeah for Brian's sake let's just say show up on time if you want to be on the show you better be there when it starts For Brian's sake, let's just say show up on time. If you want to be on the show, you better be there when it starts. Is your dad on that show? I don't know.

So the United Kingdom is not on – they left the European Union. European Union uses the euro. That's their currency. But England a few years ago left the European Union. European Union uses the euro. That's their currency. But England a few years ago left the EU, so they used the pound. That was Brexit, right? Brexit. But that includes all of the- It's a great name. Scotland is not using the euro is what we're saying.

I believe that's correct. All the UK is no longer using the euro. Yes. Straight up pound. Yeah, they use the pound. So you're going to have to have a bunch of different currency there, Nate. I think credit card. Yeah.

And they'll figure it out. Yeah. You got to have some currency of the people. But yeah, we will. But we have to have. You got to be tipping, man. How many times do we got to. Do they don't tip over there, right?

Yeah, but you're American. You should tip wherever you go. That's true. I did it once in – I remember doing it in Dublin, and I waited to give the guy the money, and it was like – it was annoying to the person. That you gave him mine? Because I feel like they were busy, and it's like –

and I'm just – it's not like – it wasn't like, oh, man, I appreciate it. It was like uncomfortable because it was just like, and I'm just, you know, it's not like, it wasn't like, oh man, I appreciate it. It was like uncomfortable. Because it was just like, what are you trying to do? Like they didn't understand what I was trying to do. That sounds like it's on them. Yeah, they need to get with it. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. But I remember being uncomfortable. Are you going to do any sightseeing in England? We're going to do, I think we are going to drive around and there's somewhere we have a car that maybe a little tour thing that we're going to just land and basically go just try to hit

whatever we can hit. I'm going to have a show that night. We leave the next day. So it's going to be jam-packed for England. But we're going to try to see. You'll see Big Ben if you look up. Yeah, I'll see Big Ben. I'm sure we'll see. Well, I looked up the McDonald's there.

I was trying to think of stuff that you might be interested in. McDonald's is a little different. It's similar in the UK, but they're about 40% smaller, the sandwiches. The Big Mac's about 40% smaller. So just keep that in mind. You might need a side sandwich. That's crazy. I need a side sandwich here. I might need two the sandwiches. The Big Mac's about 40% smaller. So just keep that in mind. You might need a side sandwich. That's crazy. I do a side sandwich here. I might need two side sandwiches.

That's like when I get Junior Whopper, I get two Junior Whoppers. Instead of one Whopper, I'll get two Juniors. Because I love the stuff that comes on the Whopper so much. Not the tomatoes and onions, but everything but that.

Mustard? And ketchup and mayonnaise. That's like when you go to Sonic and they're like, you want ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise? You go, I want them all. Take them all? I go, I'll take all of them. Down in Texas, they used to have a mustard Whopper

when I was living down there, man. Just go up and say, I want a mustard Whopper. And mustard only? Yeah, nothing but mustard on it. Yeah. I mean, they'd have the other stuff, but mustard only. Yeah, well. A burger, like a meat on it. Yeah. I mean, they'd have the other stuff, but mustard only. Yeah, well. A burger, like a meat on it.

Yeah, it's a Whopper, but just mustard only. It's a Whopper, but they don't have ketchup or mayo or anything like that. Because I'm a mustard guy, I don't like the other stuff. You know, you can get it at a McDonald's in the UK. Are you sure that these people, you didn't just say mustard only? It's on the menu, Nate. It said mustard Whopper. It was a thing that you could get down there

at Burger King. Because they had a bunch of ewes down there eating mustard. I think mustard's bigger in Texas. I want a mustard whopper. Everything's bigger there. Yeah. Especially in that ketchup mayonnaise. What were you going to say, Aaron? I'm looking at the list of items that are

only in the UK. McDonald's. It's pretty wild what they got going on here they have a just a bacon roll that would be good i mean that looks i did not know like here in the u.s we have yellow cabs yeah i guess the big thing in london is black cabs that's what they're called oh yeah so i was reading about how what it qualifies to become a black cab driver. That's what they're called. Oh, yeah? So I was reading about what it qualifies to become a black cab driver. And I'm like, I feel like they're missing one.

That's a tough Google search. Important ingredient, yeah. Well, I wasn't even Googling it. I was just reading about England. They're like, it's very hard to be a black cab driver in England. And I was like,

I bet it is. But they have to go through a test. Basically, in London, they have to know every street. Like, they test them. In London, Like a cop? It's a huge, huge city.

It's very hard to become a cab driver in London. Really? Yeah. I bet you those guys aren't driving $8,800 fares. No. They're not taking that. The country's not big enough to have a fare that high. Yeah, it's probably a reasonable fare to go from one end to the other. I want to go to Dublin.

I looked up some stuff for you, Nate, to kind of help you get ready for your trip to London. You got to cross the water. You got to cross water. Talk about that's going to be double just because. Oh, yeah, man. How long would it take you to drop across England? Yeah, I got it now. Across England?

I don't know. I'll figure it out. How many meters is that? Kilometers. That's what we're looking for. I looked up some movies that might help you get into the, you know, London Has Fallen. Yeah, I've already seen it.

I'll watch it again. I actually just started watching it again. Yeah. I'd watch it again. Who's in that? Gerard. Gerard Butler. Gerard Butler.

Ooh. It's a fun one. It's like, you know, it comes off another one, Something Else Has Fallen. Okay. It's a lot of stuff has like you know It comes off another one Something else has fallen Okay It's a lot of stuff has fallen Been major attacks Yeah

Major major World attacks Okay That everybody's Kind of takes in stride He's The Girards He's my second favorite

I'd go with Depardieu Yeah I almost said that Prefer him So what is it 13 hours So if you're driving Let's say Plymouth, the UK,

which is towards the very southern tip of the island, all the way to Thurso, then that's 13 hours and 25 minutes. That's a long trip, man. It's a pretty long trip, but that's like driving from here to New York City. Yeah, I've done it. That's 749 miles. I'll tell you what, not knowing any of this, I see the appeal of the UK just right now. Because you got London, you got Scotland.

That's a pretty vast different. Yeah. You got a lot of different stuff that you can go to. The Loch Ness Monster. Well, the golf over there nate is i know where's do do uh london to uh st andrews uh the golf course yeah the old course i wonder yeah the old course it's called the old course no that's old court, yeah. You had it right. St. Andrew's Golf Course. Yeah, it's not popping up. No. Yeah, just see what that says.

About. Three hours. Oh, wow. Is this where it is? I don't know. Foot golf, driving. Well, we know it's going to be less than a 13-hour drive. Yeah.

It's in Scotland, so no. Oh, okay. The old course is out there. Okay. So, yeah. Yeah. Wales. I mean, yeah, that's, so no. No. The old course is out there. Okay. So, yeah. Yeah. Wales. I mean, yeah, that's, you know.

It's funny. I'm not doing anything really on. I'm going to Amsterdam right there. And I'm going to Brussels, Belgium. Well, the next stop after. Yeah. Oh, nine hours. Yeah, eight hours.

It's like you're in Milwaukee. Harry Potter was filmed there, right? In the UK? Oh, I didn't know that. Yeah, probably in Ireland, right? Oh, I thought it was in London. Okay. Well, it takes place in London, but I don't know where the movies were filmed.

Okay. Ireland and the UK drive on the left side of the road, so remember that. Yeah, I don't know if we're driving. I kind of would want to because it'd be fun to see. I don't know if we'll have time to do it. But yeah, we're being a car. So then you go from the UK to Ireland. Dublin's the capital of Ireland.

Anybody know what language they speak? English, but Gaelic is probably maybe the official language. Look at the big brain. I got it. So a lot of people speak Gaelic? The official language is Irish, which is also Gaelic, but more people speak English. It's more widely used.

But the road signs are all bilingual in Irish and English both. You like salmon? Yeah. I've heard the salmon in Ireland is unbelievable. My mom and dad went there, and they said it was unbelievable. Best thing they've ever had. Oh, yeah. I've heard the salmon in Ireland is unbelievable. My mom and dad went there and they said it was unbelievable. Best thing they've ever had. Oh, wow. In Dublin or Ireland?

I know it was in Ireland. Um, I think when they got the salmon, it was a little bit out in the countryside, but the seafood in Ireland is supposedly fantastic, man. And very fresh. Yeah. Um, some famous people from Dublin? I know. What's so funny about that? I don't know. I don't see what. and very fresh. Yeah. Some famous people from Dublin? I know.

What's the thing? I don't know. I don't see what. It's taking a trip, man. I know. It was a nice thing to say, but I know how it feels when you introduce something

and then it just gets nothing. I wasn't trying to get anything out of it. I know you weren't, but I'm sorry. It was just the funny. What do you think I was doing a bit about Nate?

I didn't think you were doing anything. Salmon. I mean, I think it's, I think you'll enjoy it. My mom and dad, I mean, they still talk. Yeah. Yeah. They said, is it fresh?

I researched every McDonald's in Europe because I'm trying to get, you know, in Nate's world. So we're probably going to make it salmon. He just said at the beginning thing, he's trying to get healthy. That's true. You're shoving British McDonald's down his faceald's down i know i'm getting salmon and and uh they said um my my parents are there they're like hey they went to this restaurant is it is the uh is seafood fresh and the lady goes she just pointed to some guy outside catching fish. A little too fresh. No. I don't even know what that means. I mean, they cooked it.

That guy gets it? He doesn't. He'd get the idea. Conor McGregor's from Dabaloo? Yeah, that's fun. Maybe see him. Is he the most famous Irish person in the world right now?

I can't name him. He's more famous Irish person in the world right now? Rory McIlroy's up there. Yeah. See, he's more famous than McGregor. Bono? Bono. Yeah, come on. U2's from Dublin. That's true.

Some of those guys in that conflict that we were talking about earlier have some fame. Sin Fane? I have no idea what you're talking about. The people from the IRA people. Oh, right, right, right, right. You went to Notre Dame. Yeah, yeah. Why would they have fame? In you're talking about. The people from the IRA people. Oh, right, right, right, right. You went to Notre Dame. Yeah, yeah. Why would they have fame?

In their country, maybe. You talking about like Davy Crockett over there? Well. Their Davy Crockett is so famous. Yeah, the key figures in the IRA is a huge thing, man. Daniel Day-Lewis played in a movie. Yeah, because I don't know what. In the name of the father.

In the name of the father. In the name of the father. Here he thinks this is- This is a current- This is not like Davy Crockett. The IRA stuff was- There was car bombs going off 10 years ago. I think it was more than 10 years ago. 10 years ago.

No. 10 years ago was- 20. I don't know. I mean, I think it's like- I can't believe I'm caving. Yeah. No, I think it's going to be,

I think the, I read that stuff was like nineties was like the big IRA. I think it was wrapping up in the nineties. Yeah. All right, man. Probably still pretty big deal. No,

it was a giant deal. It's a giant deal. Bono, you too was big in the 90s too. I know, but they're still big now. Most of the hits were in the 90s, Nate. But they're still a big band. Yeah, they're a big band.

They were forced on our phone. I mean, that's how big they were. I know, man. Yeah. That was a big mistake. Guinness Beer, also Dublin. It's a big one there. When the guy created it in 1759,

he signed a lease for $50 a year for four acres for 9,000 years. He had a 9,000 year lease. They've since tore that up. They didn't honor it? No. And the Guinness Book of World Records, of course,

comes from there. Oh, I didn't know that. Yeah, it was a – I don't know if that was an of course. They did it to like a trivia game in pubs, the Guinness people. Yeah, it was a marketing thing. Yeah, they were like, we're going to put this little pamphlet in pubs so people have something to do in pubs.

Wow. Yeah. What do they have to do? What do you mean? Just read the book? Well, no, it's just like, hey, who's got the longest beard or whatever? They thought it'd be fun stuff to talk about. You didn't have phones, man.

No, I know, but I don't know. I don't, like, it's like, it's just funny. They're putting in pubs to do, like, to break records or just to read about the records? Just to read about it. Oh, yeah. Something to do, something to talk about. Yeah. Yeah.

I just don't understand. What is much to do back then? I understand that. I get that. So they had the book. They already had the records. They were doing, so they go, let's go find a bunch of records. Because it was find a bunch of records.

And then we'll put it. And it was about like, I don't know, is this totally, but I think the first thing was they got in and argued about what the fastest bird was at a bar. It was like something about the fastest bird, something to do with a bird. And they all argued about it. And they're like, man, this, these things probably come up all the time.

We're going to make a book that, you know, that sort of talks. To just settle all the arguments. Yeah. To settle the arguments and have some, you know, stimulate conversations. Oh, that's fun. I think it was something about a plover. It's a plover. I don't, man. What is a plover?

I think it's a type of bird. It's the fastest bird. I don't think it's the fastest bird. Sounds like, did you have a bit about this? I didn't have a bit. I was doing something for Bob and Tom. I do this segment about anything, and I was going to do Guinness, but it was too boring, so I didn't do that segment.

But I remember it's got something to do with plover. Well, I'm glad you thought to bring it up here. Well, I didn't bring it up. It came up. It came up naturally. It came up. I didn't just say, hey, I want to force my get it. You put your trash bag of stuff that can't make Bob and Tom.

No, no, no, no, no. No, no, man. I mean, it's just we were talking about Guinness. Yeah. Am I right? Yeah, yeah. It's the Duck Hawk, also known as the Peregrine Falcon. 200 miles an hour.

The screen painting, one of the most famous paintings in the world, is at the museum there in Oslo. Oh. So there's like four different versions

of the same painting. Two of them have been stolen over time. The 1994 Winter Olympics was in Norway in that same time when I think the opening ceremonies were going on. Some people broke in and stole one of the screen paintings. Wow.

That's quite a diversion. So they got it back? They eventually got it back. Yeah. One of them broke in and left a note saying, thanks for the poor security. So they were kind of messing with it. I feel like that's shown off a little bit. Yeah.

Why add insult to injury? Yeah. Act like you've been there. I feel like that's shown off a little bit. Yeah. Why add insult to injury? Yeah, act like you've been there. A third of Norway is in the Arctic Circle, meaning that's why it's got the nickname Land of Midnight Sun.

Under the Hudson, I think. That is terrifying. That is terrifying. It's not fun down there, man. Yeah. Everyone in Norway, their annual income, income tax paid, and total wealth is published. It's a public record.

Everybody? Yeah. They do it to try to cut down on tax fraud. They're like, if everybody knows what everybody makes and what everybody's claiming, then. Yeah. That's like something like that's, how big is just Norway? Population.

It can't be. You're doing something like that. You can't be big. Population of Norway is 5.4 million. So what is it? Like New York? It's smaller than New York City. Like LA maybe?

Yeah. Yeah. Smaller than LA too. Okay. Oh, if you include the whole area. Metro area. Yeah. It's a good looking flag, man.

Easy to draw. Yeah. It's a good-looking flag, man. Easy to draw. Yeah. Easier than ours. Magnus Carlson, you know who that is? I do. Greatest chess player of all time. I thought I was one of those guys on ESPN that pull anchors. Yeah.

I feel like there is a Magnus. World's strongest man? Yeah, those guys, they pull anchors and stuff. Yeah. I actually think I know a Magnus. World's Strongest Man? Yeah, those guys, they pull like anchors and stuff. Yeah, I actually think I know a Magnus. Is there one of those guys named Magnus? I don't know him, but like, yeah, I do think one of them's named Magnus. And I feel like a famous one. I think so, too.

Like one out of that world. Yeah, I thought, man, I thought I was right on that one. I would go with that more than I would the chess thing. Yeah, I should ask you guys first. He is the number one chess player in the world and many think the greatest of all time. Yeah. Still very young.

He's just been so dominant for so long. Better than the Russian guy? Yeah, better than Gorbachev. Kasparov? Kasparov. Yeah, Kasparov. And Bobby Fischer. Bobby Fischer.

Yeah. Was Bobby Fischer really great? He was unbelievable. He was just a lunatic. And this guy can hold it together. He's a little weird, but he's like a normal person. And this guy can hold it together. He's a little weird, but he's a normal person. Way more normal than Bobby Fischer was.

So they think he's officially now the best. And he's still so young, and he's still just. Like what's so young? He's younger than me, I think. How good did that Josh Waitzkin kid get? I don't know who that is. I don't know. He was the one in the movie searching for Bobby Fischer.

Oh, that's a great movie. He's a year older than me. He's 32. Is he ever lost? Yeah, you lose all the time. The way these work is like you play a bunch of games, and it's like best of five or whatever. So he'll lose, but he just dominates people.

The reigning five-time world chess champion. He had the highest score, however you calculate that, of all time. High score of what? Of a game? Like some huge number that they used to, I don't know, understand chess. It's like the FedEx Cup, like a total. I guess. Yeah, yeah.

So then you go to Belgium. Belgium. They're back in the EU, so you can go back to using the Euro. All right. How many EUs am I getting to use? I think two. Okay. Or maybe, I guess three.

Van Gogh. Yeah, windmills are big. The tulips are a little bit out of the city. I feel like it was like an hour or two ride out of the city. Then I'll go to Van Gogh. Yeah. Then it's like, what else am I doing after that?

We did each of those at a separate day and we'd just walk around the city. You go into little shops. I don't know. The time kind of goes quickly. I would just think, I've never been to Europe, but I would think just the architecture alone. Yeah.

Just old buildings that, you know. In Amsterdam, everyone rides bicycles. There's more bicycles there than people. Wow. So. They have a population problem. Some people own more than one bicycle. It's like us with guns.

Right. Because it's the same stat. We have more guns than people. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. We got a little more control over here. And then he flies.

That is very funny. You go, what are y'all going to do? War. They're throwing their bikes at us. We're like, all right. It's annoying. It's like, we got to fight in Amsterdam. You're like, I'll tell you what, it's annoying because the bike does hurt when it hits you.

Do you guys know anything about Anne Frank? I've read her book. Yes. Do you remember? I mean, one person lived. Her father. Her dad lived to like the 80s. Yeah.

Oh, really? Yeah, until pretty recently. It's kind of crazy that of all the family members, I mean, he's the only one that made it. Yeah, I mean, so she would have been alive now. Maybe. She'd be very old. Yeah. But I guess it's possible.

Yeah, she'd be pretty old, man. Probably over 100. Oh, her dad in 1980. Oh, yeah. When did she die? She died during World War II. Okay. 1945.

Wow. She was born in 1929. Yeah, so she'd be in her 90s. Okay. 1945. Wow. She was born in 1929. Yeah, so she'd be in her 90s. Yeah. Yeah. She could still be. She's 94. It's pretty crazy.

And she just died from, I mean, she was being held, but they didn't murder her. She just died from dysentery or something. Yeah. She was born the same year Martin Luther King was. Crazy.
