Starting point is 00:00:00 Marketing is hard. But I'll tell you a little secret. It doesn't have to be. Let me point something out. You're listening to a podcast right now, and it's great.

Starting point is 00:01:20 The Antichrist. You got me in a vendetta kind of mood. Hi, folks. Welcome on a beautiful Thursday. How you is? What it was. Can I go three words without getting cancer in my fucking chest? Jesus Christ, I can't wait for life to end. Good to be with you. Good show today. Very special guest. A long time friend of mine who I call him the King of New Jersey. He's such a Jersey guy and a guy's guy. And he seemed, when I was in New York, he always seemed to be there when I was having a meltdown on stage.
Starting point is 00:01:57 To the point where I would almost blame it on him. Look up, he'd be in the doorway crying because I'm calling some woman this. He were in her. Anyways, it's the very funny Jimmy Florentine. He's got a new air. album coming out. When did he say? The end of this month? End of this month. Call, you can't please them all. First, the audio comes out, I guess, and then the actual special. So keep an eye out for that.
Starting point is 00:02:21 So, by the way, I know I teased having Steve Sweeney on, but he has to have a medical procedure. Apparently, they have to remove a nine-volt battery from his ass. No, I don't know. He didn't get specific, but he's at that age. Could be a heart, could be bunions. But he's having a procedure. So instead, we got the great Jimmy Florentine. Jimmy, how you going? How's it going, Nick?
Starting point is 00:02:50 Good to see you. Same here, man. I see, I love that Gutfeld uses you so much. And do you enjoy doing that show? I found it tricky. I have an open invitation, but like, I think we've talked about this. I refuse to fly to New York. my man is like oh you don't want to do TV I'm like it's a long story all right just
Starting point is 00:03:10 fucking do you find you do that show you're very good at it because you you don't want to come out too jockey when you're on gutbell I mean Jamie Lissau does that great he I mean he's known as the joke guy so people know it's coming but it's tricky because you're talking about serious shit you don't want to sound like you're trying to be uh Tom Brocah but you and you're there for the comic relief. And you seem to handle it pretty good. How much preparation? No, I spend the whole day.
Starting point is 00:03:40 I treated like a Letterman appearance, like back in the day. Because that's the audience he has. He has, you know, two and a half million people watching a night. So that's pretty much doing like Letterman. I do it like once a month. So I really prepare all this. As soon as I get that material, I'm just working through it. I want to make a good point and then maybe end were to joke.
Starting point is 00:03:59 Sometimes it's not even a joke. Right. So that's the way I look at it. So, no, I think it's, I love doing the show. It's great. And it's huge exposure. Yeah. And yeah, you make it look natural because sometimes it's not red eye.
Starting point is 00:04:16 We used to do red eye. And that was something about knowing that was going to air at three in the morning. I mean, I would hardly prepare, which was stupid. But he just had faith in me to come up with something on the spot. But yeah, when I see you on it, I go, he's got it down. It's kind of tricky and shit. What's up career-wise, Jimmy? How much of the road are you doing?
Starting point is 00:04:40 I'm doing a lot. You know, a little slow in the summer, but the fall's here, so it picks right back up. Yeah. I still love being out there, working jokes and stuff. The traveling's starting to get to me a little.
Starting point is 00:04:51 Yeah. So, but, you know, I got a new album coming out, a special coming out at the end of September. Oh, good. So now I'm working new material. Yeah, it's called you can't please them all. and you're talking about brudge I know I wish
Starting point is 00:05:07 that's see that I can't even play I can't even please one and a half Jimmy's a fucking ladies man Don't let him kid you Hey you uh
Starting point is 00:05:20 you uh what the fuck I was just going to ask you now um oh does the does your son ever come on how old's your son now probably 40s 14
Starting point is 00:05:32 He's 14. Holy fuck. 14. Does he ever come with you on the road at all or no? Yeah, he comes. He loves it. He loves watching stand up, you know, watch all the comics.
Starting point is 00:05:43 He has a ton of it. We watch some of your special. He was dying. Yes, that's my demographic. The 14-year-old Jersey boys love me. But you know, you want the young kids to like your stuff. You're telling me. You know who he's into?
Starting point is 00:05:59 He likes, like Kinnison. He loves Kinnison. Oh, he has good time. A clip to him. Oh, yeah. No, he, believe me, he's, he's just like me. We watch the same shows, same sports themes. Beautiful.
Starting point is 00:06:10 So he's going to be a horrible human being. Is that what you're saying? Yeah, exactly. If at some point he could have a girlfriend and I could be banging his mom, he'll be the hat trick. That's the Jimmy four team. Now, last time we talked, he actually, I think you said, didn't your son actually go on stage and tell a few jokes or my dreaming?
Starting point is 00:06:34 Yeah, he hasn't been on stage in like three or four since before the pandemic. He doesn't want to do it anymore. He did it a lot, but now he's a teenager. He wants to hang out with his friends. He's playing basketball all the time. So, you know, I'm not going to push it on him. It's a lonely life. You know what it is.
Starting point is 00:06:50 Oh, boy. And what's funny is you, what's funny is we're talking to the great Jimmy Flirty. You just said, yeah, the road's starting to get to me now. I said that, I think, two years after my first open mic. I love I love telling you the story because we have the same agent and he's like I go is Nick torn he goes Nick doesn't want to go any flight past Chicago he's not going I remember that I started laughing like Chicago yeah yeah that doesn't leave much it leaves Vermont in New Jersey yeah I know yeah I look when I was young I did all those fire I went to Seattle twice a year
Starting point is 00:07:29 sometimes in L.A. and all that shit and I just fucking can't sit still in a plane. Two hours is the fucking, but, but look, I'm going to, I'm going to Vegas at the end of the month here, uh, Skank Fest. Are you, are you going to be there or no? No, I won't be there this year. I've never been. They've asked me like 10 years. I've never done it. So, uh, Joe List sort of, they ambush me. They were on the, they were on the air live. And Joe, Joe call me. And I haven't seen my boy Joe List. And I like all those guys, Big Jay and those guys. No, it's great. So, it's great. It's easy. Yeah, you do like two. or three shows and that's it.
Starting point is 00:08:04 Yeah, like 15, 20 minute sets. Yes, yes, that's why I said yes. And the night before I'm doing, so this proves that I do go a little west, I'm doing wise guys in Utah and then that one sold out already. Which, you know, it doesn't happen often. So I'm happy about that and then the next two nights I'll go to Skank Fest and but you, and like you said,
Starting point is 00:08:28 we love it, look, we try to tell people when you're on stage and telling jokes and murdering, there is no better feeling in the fucking world. But you know as well as I do. When it came to me, I was not, I was, well, when I first moved to New York, me and Louis would do six, seven sets a night in that end, because you're in New York,
Starting point is 00:08:45 you're like, this is, I gotta make it here, fucking whatever. But you know as well, as well, later on, after I had done my Letterman's and tonights and shit, I fucking even didn't like going to the cellar and doing three sets of night. And you would always be there
Starting point is 00:08:59 when I lost my shit on stage. Jimmy would always be there. I was almost ready to blame you. Every time I fucking lost my shit, I wouldn't even know he would be watching. And I'd look in the, and I'd hear that laugh from the corner. Stand up or the comedy seller.
Starting point is 00:09:15 I wish those sets were filmed. Because it was like, it was a comic having a mental breakdown on stage, but he was killing. Like if one joke didn't get a 10 out of a 10, you would scream at the audience, you fucking Hillary, cunt Hillary Clinton,
Starting point is 00:09:32 cunt, liberals. What do you guys know? I just didn't like that joke and the next joke would kill. It has to be me because it has to be me because even Colin Quinn would go, Colin go to me, don't be that guy that can't hear the laughter. And I said, you're too
Starting point is 00:09:50 late. Even the doorman down there, the big dude who I think died since he said to me one night, because one guy was sitting there with his arms crossed. The guy was wearing one of those Irish galley caps, and he made some crack to me. So on the way off, I said, good night, everybody.
Starting point is 00:10:10 He was right in the front. When I was coming off the stage, I flipped his hat off his head. And the dormant goes, what the fuck are you doing? You're going to start? And then, you know, who whys me up, Jimmy? Ironically, I said, and I was saying it for years, this place now brings the worst out.
Starting point is 00:10:28 And it was my favorite room like everybody else. and I said, this place now brings the worst out of me. And Sherrod Small looked at me and he goes, that's because you've outgrown it. And that just rung so true with me. I loved when we go on the road, you do 45 to an hour. And then to come down, and again, those places are workshops. It's there to work out new shit.
Starting point is 00:10:48 But it would be very hard to work out new shit when there were other guys going on doing their best 15 young guys coming up and ripping the tits off the crowd. People don't see all that, right? No, and especially, if you do edgy material, you got to get the crowd to like you. And if they don't know who you are and you're only doing 15 minutes, you got to spend like the first seven minutes getting them to like you and then hit them.
Starting point is 00:11:11 So it's not like a regular set on the road where you've got time to do the brutal stuff later on in the sack. You've got to get your shit right away. Yeah, and everybody's doing the greatest hits at the clubs. Trying to follow Greer Barnes. Exactly. Yeah. Yeah. Or somebody. Yeah. somebody like that who I love by the way that's not a that's not a slap in greer but he had he would do the same fucking 15 and I mean honed and really funny and just and then then I'm going up there with like a notes in my hand because you got to get new work done right and then fucking they're looking at me like and Jimmy goes like you said they got to like you at the beginning I don't think my face gives off
Starting point is 00:11:50 that vibe even when I'm enjoying myself sometimes I do sets in New York now I'll just tell the crowd to Listen, I'm just going to be nasty right off the bat. Are you guys okay with it? I'm really a nice guy. I got a kid. I take care of them. I'm a single, can I just get right to my shit? I don't have five minutes of nice stuff to warm you up with.
Starting point is 00:12:12 Let me just get to my stuff. See that? That's how to handle it. That is how you go, I got a kid. I take care of him. Obviously, obviously I'm white. Listen. I know.
Starting point is 00:12:24 That's what I'd do. And I'd say a line like that and that would make me, again, you're going to fit a thing. to get who you plan to down there. And I always say this to people. I go, you realize the comedy seller and all those clubs are on the campus of NYU. I would go, I've been in the enemy in that room forever. You know, first three or four years I wasn't because I was just doing, I wasn't really leaning into the political shit. And then by the end, Jimmy, like years ago, when did I leave there, five, six years ago? I would go on and it was me again, but I could see them after the
Starting point is 00:12:57 first joke, fold their fucking arms, because I wouldn't warm them up either. I was like you. I didn't explain that I was going to be nasty. I was just nasty. They would cross their fucking arms. And then I, the last set I did was at the underground in New York, which is around the corner, same people own at the comedy seller. I ate a bag of shit and called the audience every fucking name in the book. Of course, I look up and Colin is there. And then Colin tries to give me a, you know, a dead son tuck. and I go calling for fuck sake I said I don't want to do good in front of these communist
Starting point is 00:13:34 cock suckers I was so glad when I fucking left that place but I do but now I'm down here Jimmy I got no way to fucking work out Savannah doesn't have a scene so what do I do? There's no clubs at all there, nothing? Not unless you want to do cabaret and follow a fucking stripper and I'm glad they don't Jimmy
Starting point is 00:13:53 because I always had this theory same with New Orleans they really don't have a comedy scene they have theaters where you know big name would do comedy but those those tourist places are not places where you want to do comedy you know i mean because the audiences have no nothing in common at least at the comedy cell i knew they're all left-wing douchebags and i could work with that but but but right like new orleans and savannah you don't want a bunch of tourists uh you know mom and dad with their fucking 14-year-old's daughter there and shit at least i don't no and that's why that's why i like working the stand in in New York City because it's all New Yorkers.
Starting point is 00:14:28 You're not getting tourists there, which is great. Way better crowd. Yes, that's what I did after Noam sat down and talked with me and said, look, we're getting so much hate mail. And I didn't even argue. I go, Noam, I go, I'm not even going to try to argue. I said, I know. I said, the place brings the worst out of me.
Starting point is 00:14:47 And I said, I'm going to, and I said to him, I'm going to take a little break from this play. He didn't tell me I had to. So I was going to the stand. And you're right. It was a little more of a New York vibe to it. And then they said, Nick, you got to take it easy. And I said, where am I going to go now?
Starting point is 00:14:59 No. That's where I saw you a lot when I was at the stand, and I would hear you cackling. No, I wish I could have videoed those sets. So what are we looking for on this new album, or special? What did you touch on? The, you know, the tranty stuff, men can get pregnant. You know, the usual. Yes.
Starting point is 00:15:26 Does your, go ahead. I would talk about, you know, in Jersey, and this is true of my son's middle school, they were, they sent a letter home that they were going to teach them to make it get pregnant, but you can opt out if you wanted to, if you didn't want your kid to learn that in health class. So I'm the only parent that opted in because I wanted to know what the hell they were, how they were explaining that to my kid. So I talk about that in my special. And they also in Jersey, if my kid wants to be called the girl's name or wants to start
Starting point is 00:15:56 taking, you know, uh, counseling on transitioning, they won't notify the parents. They'll keep that. If he misses homework, you know, it's 17 phone calls. Right. You know, they'll call home. But they, so, you know, they'll keep that shit private at school. So I talk about that on my special. And then they're just a regular dick jokes.
Starting point is 00:16:16 Which tight, which sort of tie in with a transgender. But it's weird because, uh, that's why I call the special you can't please them all because people would walk out. Um, I said, I would just. guy you can't please them all. It wouldn't even bother me. Especially with the transgender stuff. They really, wherever you are in a country, you'll get people to walk out.
Starting point is 00:16:34 As soon as they hear, you bring it up. They're done. Oh, absolutely. Absolutely. Luckily, I'm at the point where I guess I'm known enough. I've been around so fucking long that they know not to come out to my show, these fucking, but there'll always be those sheep that wander in. Oh, because they saw a comedy club.
Starting point is 00:16:55 And that's what I like to explain. There's a lot of people on TV right now calling themselves comedians. I don't want to name names, but they're not comedians. There are people that are on TV shows that get very popular, and people come out to see them because they're on TV shows. They didn't do open mic nights. They didn't do the road for 25 years. To me, those are the comedians.
Starting point is 00:17:22 But everybody likes to throw around comedian in the title now. And you and I know the fucking difference. So people that come out to see me know what's coming. Am I sort of preaching to the choir? Yes. But what am I going to do? I was preaching to the enemy in New York for the last 15 years of my career. So, yeah, I finally earned the right to have people who like what I do come out.
Starting point is 00:17:50 You find, didn't you have more of a fan base that knows what coming, Jimmy? are. Yeah, I do. I absolutely. But as a comic, that's what you want. At the end of the day, you want people that like you to come see you perform. Right. That's the ultimate goal. But I like going in a stand too because they're like 25 year old kids. They have no idea who I am. So I want to see if the stuff works with in front of people that I don't know, which most of the time it doesn't. That's actually, that's actually a great point though. Um, because I'm still doing, I'm pulling stuff up from three albums ago, because I don't have a place to work shit out. I always free, I always freewheel off the cuff.
Starting point is 00:18:32 I've always done that my whole career, hoping something will land. I have that ability, thank God. But now I'm dipping into shit from like three albums ago that I forgot about that is still relevant and good material, only because I can't sit down and write an hour, and I get nervous because I see you putting out a special, you know, all these guys, Joe List, Colin, and whatever. And I get antsy. I almost don't feel like a comic,
Starting point is 00:18:58 but I get to do this every day and be funny off the top of my head. And then I still pick my spots on the road, but I do miss that being in a club. That's what I was most proud of. I don't know if you agree. I said just to Colin, I said, the thing I'm most proud of honestly about my career
Starting point is 00:19:15 is that I could hold my own at the comedy seller for 20-something years every night, going on after a Dave Attell or Chappelle walked in. or even a Seinfeld or Greg Giroldo or Patrice. Didn't that, don't you think that's why the guys that came out of New York still held in high regard? Absolutely. I mean, I tell people on the road or, you know, when they do like the Montreal Comedy Festival or whatever the order is going to be, I'm like, hey, those comedy seller sets on a Tuesday night following Jim Norton or Colin or you or Atel, that's going to make you better.
Starting point is 00:19:53 And when you have to deal with that, and when you're filming a comedy special with six other comics, you're not afraid of it because you've barely even went through it a million times. No, it's definitely, that's why I always tell comics, young comics, that would open me on the road.
Starting point is 00:20:05 I go, you've got to go through New York. If you want to be a stand-up and do this for a living, you've got to go through New York. And luckily, I was from a town in Boston had a great comedy scene, and you had to follow these guys that have been doing it. It's my first year, and they've already been doing it for 12 years.
Starting point is 00:20:19 And in Boston, you know, the star is the host of the show, show. So I'd have to go on after Steve Sweeney or Don Gavin or Lenny Clark opened with 15 minutes and blew the roof off the dump. And then that's why I was sort of prepared when I went to New York. And then they couldn't understand me because of my stupid Boston accent. Some of my jokes were, go ahead. I still think that the Boston comics, that city has the best comics have come out of. And it's probably because of that. No question around the world, Boston has the best, best comedians. I honestly, I would, I say that because I say being a comedian from Boston is like being a football player that grew up in Texas or Ohio.
Starting point is 00:21:01 You're proud to come out of that pedigree, you know. Right. And even Colin. Colin's very fussy like me, who he likes and who he does. He always loved Boston and still quotes Boston comics. And yes, a lot of famous people. I mean, Billy Burr, we always talk about this, but Joe Rogan, Billy Burr, Louis C.K., Stephen Wright, Paula, Paul a fucking. Poundstone, Jay Leno, Conan O'Brien, just to name a few.
Starting point is 00:21:26 It's like being a football player out of Texas without the pussy. No, it really is. You're right. I mean, I've always said, Robert Kelly, Dane Cook, Frank Fitzsimmons. Yes. Patrice, there's four more. Yes. And plus all those local Boston comics that never left, that never left Boston, like
Starting point is 00:21:49 Steve Sweeney. and Kevin, I forget that guy Kevin's last name. I used to work with him up there all the time. The dead guy? There's a bunch of, yeah. Kevin Meaney? Guys that, yeah, Meany, but all the guys that never left Boston, they were unbelievable. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:04 Even Tony V. Tony V. Yeah. Solid comic, just consistently funny. And, um. Kevin Knox. Kevin Knox. That guy was a machine on stage.
Starting point is 00:22:18 I used to open for him all the time. God. his soul. Kevin Knox died of cancer. I didn't even know he had it. I came home to do a comics come home or one of those things. And I run into him and his head is shaved.
Starting point is 00:22:33 I go, that looks fucking great. Why'd you do that? He didn't say anything. He didn't lead on. I just like it this way. And then I find out like a month later that he's dying of cancer and lived seven years longer
Starting point is 00:22:43 than they said he was going to. But Kevin Knox, for Dallas, those are guys who aren't familiar with him. Another guy that didn't really leave Boston, But he'd come on in a sweatsuit, kind of unzipping down here like it's the 1970s. And he loved his blow, and he would just come on. In the 80s, when AIDS was at its peak and everybody was afraid to talk about it, his opening joke would be, hey, you know what AIDS stands for?
Starting point is 00:23:07 Adios, infected dick suckers. That would be his opening joke. And then, like Dave Attell and these New York comics would go up to Boston for the weekend to do a gig. and they would come back going, I can't believe this guy say this shit. And in Boston, the crowd,
Starting point is 00:23:27 and this is in the 80s, it's so ironic now because Boston is so politically correct and liberal, but they were just the opposite. It couldn't get rough enough of them, comedy-wise. And Kevin Knox
Starting point is 00:23:38 would tear the fucking room to shreds. And the most likable guy, of course, it never happens to the, I'm not going to mention that 40 people I hate. I keep wishing can't trump people. I'm going to be right once. Hey, folks, if you want to support the show,
Starting point is 00:23:54 go to nickdip.com. We have a merchandise page to support the show. Buy something there nice. We got hats, hoodies, t-shirts, mugs, jogging bras. I said bras. Welcome to Boston. How are you? Pretty good.
Starting point is 00:24:09 Can I get a vodka and tonic? Fuck the face. Hoodies, hats. I hate selling shit. Also, I want to send a personal. video to someone, so I can say what you're thinking, I'll say it for you, you don't have to say it. I'll just put my nuts on the camera and just zing-zong-zinger.

Do you fucking believe that Trump has been shot at a couple times or whatever happened the second time? The way the media, the left-wing media, I know it's a cliche, but it's a fact, Do you believe how they just, they're still stoking it.
Starting point is 00:25:20 Hillary Clinton's on yesterday on the internet saying they don't think they talk bad enough about, do you fucking believe this? It's crazy. I mean, look, they ultimately they want, you know what they want to happen. They want him gone. They don't want any chance of him mightn't get back in office. They don't even want him to make it to November 5th. If that happens to him secretly, they will all clap and go on the air and say it's terrible.
Starting point is 00:25:46 it's a bad day for America, but they'll love it. That's how much they, I mean, this whole threat to democracy. Okay, so he was president for four years, you know, eight years ago. Was it was, did we have democracy then? Oh, yeah. I remember that we did. Yeah, gee, I remember that terrible economy that the dictator created. Yeah, I remember, I remember the stock market.
Starting point is 00:26:08 I remember everybody had jobs. Yeah. Everything was going good. So it's not like he hasn't been in office before. We already know what's coming. Here's what people don't say, and this is my own theory. They've always hated Republicans. They called Ronald Reagan Hitler.
Starting point is 00:26:27 They called George W. Bush Hitler. They call Ford Hitler. The first Bush they called Hitler. They've been doing this forever. But the reason they really fucking have lost it about Trump, he personifies the devil to them. What do I mean by that? He's an old white guy.
Starting point is 00:26:46 billionaire, blonde hair, blue-eyed Christian alpha male. Could you fuck, nobody brings that up. Could you, I mean, to them, that is the, Annie's, Annie's braggadocious. It's all right for, you know, for, just pick a black politician to have a big mouth. Nobody says anything. But Trump, and it works in his favor sometime because they were interviewing this young black kid years ago when Jesse was doing Bill O'Reilly and interviewing people. and Trump had just come on the scene and they interviewed his black,
Starting point is 00:27:18 he looked like a hip-cop kid. And they go, how do you feel about Donald Trump? And man, black people like him. You know why? He rich, but he ain't a shame of it. That's great. That's great. And that still rings true.
Starting point is 00:27:32 How bad, Jimmy, does the left have to be? How fucking radical where they have black people and Hispanic people saying, enough of the Democrat Party. Isn't it fucking great to watch? I love it. I love to start to slowly come around. I think, you know, with Trump getting charged with all this stuff
Starting point is 00:27:51 that really like hit home with black people. Like, yeah, man, we feel like we're treated unfairly with the judicial system. And he's getting that, which is great. And then they realized when he was in office, everything was good until the pandemic hit. So like, why? And then in the last four years, everything costs so much.
Starting point is 00:28:07 And now with all illegal immigrants coming in and taking up all that money that they were getting the free stuff, they're like, what is this bullshit? So thank God they're waking up. I just, you know, look, it's going to be close. And, you know, I'm sure they're going to fudge some numbers like they did in 2020 in a swing state. So that's where I'm worried about because it's going to be super close. I think Trump has to win in a blowout.
Starting point is 00:28:28 I've been saying that for a while. It's got to be like a 2114 football game for him to win this legit. Well, let me tell you something. Here's my opinion on it. The media has everybody on the right, me, you, everybody else thinking that this is, country is 50-50 liberal versus which it's not. This country is still center right. I believe that
Starting point is 00:28:53 a fucking thousand percent. There's a small group of radicals but because they own the media and the fucking internet, they make it seem like it's 50-50. I swear to God if you knocked in every door in America today, Trump will be slaughtering this bitch. I really believe that. But again, and you go,
Starting point is 00:29:12 well, you think they're going to try to steal this one? Well, they've tried to kill them twice. Yeah, yeah, they're involved, by the way. So fuck off if you don't believe that. They're trying to kill them twice. So I'm pretty sure, like you said, they're going to fudge the numbers again. But in a perfect world, it, like I said, black people, Hispanic people, minorities are seeing through this bullshit because it's affecting them directly.
Starting point is 00:29:34 Don't, I can't even, I'm insulted. I mean, I'm offended. It's an insult to Americans' intelligence to think that this broad should be in the same room with Trump when it comes to vying for this job. Well, I know in front of world leaders. Like, I mean, look,
Starting point is 00:29:54 with that debate, she memorized her line. She was like an actress. He had like three weeks to memorize everything. She probably walked around, you know, when you used to memorize lines
Starting point is 00:30:04 for movies. Yeah. You know, when you had to do it and do part. And I would just walk up up and down the street and memorize my lines,
Starting point is 00:30:09 listen. So she, that's all she did. But when she's in a room where she's got to add lib in front of world leaders, what the fuck is she going to do?
Starting point is 00:30:16 But they don't even think about that. No. I got a liberal friend that was over on Sunday watching football, and he just started screaming about abortion. That is, he's got a daughter, and abortion's going to be illegal, you know, because he has a daughter. I go, it's already to the state. The federal government does no control.
Starting point is 00:30:34 So state to state, he goes, even if it's states, it's not fair. I go, okay, I go, you know what, if I had a daughter and she got knocked up, she wanted to get rid of the baby, I'll drive two hours to Pennsylvania to go kill it. It's not that big of the deal. I drive three hours to go to amusement park. I could go drive two hours to go kill a baby. First of all, first of all, the amazing thing about that story is this fucking guy is in your house.
Starting point is 00:31:01 I know. He's still one of my friends and he's an animal and he says the N-word a lot, so I let him in. I think he said it 72 times on Sunday when his team was losing. Yeah, that's the day when people seem to drop the N-word, a lot of white people. when you have 10 grand on the dolphins and they don't cover it. If I had that argument with your buddy, I would have said,
Starting point is 00:31:26 pulled on your underwear. I want to see if you have a pussy. God, he sounds like a big fucking girl. But again, he seems right racially. I know. I always making fun about Travis Kelsey and Taylor Swift. He's like, oh, lead them alone.
Starting point is 00:31:41 They're in love. I'm like, you need to leave. Who the fuck is this? Nathan Lane's kid? Who did you have over? I know. And he's watching football? This guy sounds like a beard.
Starting point is 00:31:55 You know, he's doing, he's probably at your house watching football. This is how they cover their gayness. But he's recording it at home. And he'll go home and jerk off to all the asses of the running backs. I've seen this. Now, Jimmy, who's your, I know you're a San Francisco Giants fan in baseball. Football, Giants, Jets. No, I got the concussion guy, Tua, the Miami.
Starting point is 00:32:19 Oh, you're, that's right. That's why I always like, Jimmy's like a Jersey guy, but he likes the Giants in baseball and a Dolphins. And yeah, Tua, Tua's, I'm talking to Jim Florentine, by the. You're supposed to reset, they told me, in radio school, the Columbia Broadcasting System. Oh, yeah, Tua's got a head like a fucking Nerf ball. And if he was smart, and I don't say this, because I don't give a shit if they walk around like vegetables. I want to be entertained on something. But he really should think about hanging it up.
Starting point is 00:32:49 No, Jimmy. Well, you know, I read an article that Troy Aitman had nine confirmed concussions in his career. Steve Young had 11 confirmed, and Brett Farm came out and said, I think I had 100 concussions in my football career. So two was only on four. So he's got another 10-year career ahead of him. The problem is he keeps missing. The NFL is watching.
Starting point is 00:33:16 So he has to sit out for like four to six weeks. that could probably come back in a week or two. So it's killing the team. It is. How about having a fucking backup down there? They never do. They never have a good backup. Back on the side.
Starting point is 00:33:31 I should be coaching that team. I like that little nerd. He's done a good job. You like his Capri pants that he wears? I didn't notice his pants. I just, I don't look below the waist and I'm talking about a man. But is it Well they only go to his caps
Starting point is 00:33:50 They only go to his caps Oh no No Oh yeah Oh get rid of them Get the fuck rid of him Bring in a fucking male But I like these nerdy little fuck
Starting point is 00:34:00 Because I pictured him His first day at training camp When he first came into the league He actually joked about it On some interview he did How he's this guy that weighs 140 pounds soaking wet And he's telling these
Starting point is 00:34:13 Prison fucking guys They look like prisoners what to do and went to fucking eat. And I know football better than you. That's got to be a little intimidating. And he did a good job the first couple of years, right? Yeah, I mean, he gets out coaching big games, though. That's the problem. Oh, does he really?
Starting point is 00:34:33 Yeah. Yeah, he's starting to show. It's his third year. You're starting to see some warts with him. So we'll see what happens at the end of the year. Are you still following the WMBA? I know you love that league. I have never watched one second of it.
Starting point is 00:34:49 You fucking sexist, racist, I know, I know all the other players hate Caitlin Clark, because, you know, you think a star in a league, and all of a sudden your ratings are going up, but people are interested, you'd be happy for it, but no. How deep does black hatred run for white people? It's still the most unreported thing in the country. They just hate us with a passion.
Starting point is 00:35:15 Yes, I understand something happened with white people long ago, with your again but we weren't there it's like showing up at a fight showing up at a party and some white guys fucking smack some black guy and left then eight black guys show up and they just fucking pick out any white guy who just got there and they beat the fuck that's what it is it's fucking oh god don't get me started no it's another i was just having to argue my friend the day about the you know there's not enough black coaches head coaches in the NFL i go there's six right now, they're 30% in the population. There's 32 teams. So if you average that out, there should be like four and a half black coaches.
Starting point is 00:35:56 There's too many black coaches. I said there's too many. They've got to get rid of one. No, that's true. I always turn that argument on the head because when they want cops and shit, like in New York City, we want, if the city's 21% black, we want 21% black cops. If you follow that being counting, yes, then you're overrepresented in the NFL. you're overrepresented in commercials by a thousand percent. I've been saying that since I was fucking 11. Every commercial opens on a black family or, you know, acting like a white family. That's, again, liberal who shit, but.
Starting point is 00:36:28 But they think like that the NFL owners are racist. They don't want to hire a black coach. They got 70% of players are black and they cut them $50 million checks of signing bonuses. But they don't want a black head coach. I'll take all black players, but not when it comes to the coach. I need a white guy. It's the dumbest thing ever. And you know who said that, by the way?
Starting point is 00:36:48 God blesses his friggin gangster soul. Snoop. Snoop said many times in an interview, Snoop goes, I think the black guys should be the players and white guys should be the coach. That's just how it is. Didn't catch any flak. I said it.
Starting point is 00:37:03 I was hit with a full Heineken off the back of the head. Yeah, Snoop fucking said it. And that's a good point we make about Parker. But let me tell you something, Jimmy. In five years, if there's more than 30, free white coaches left, I'll be surprised. Because every weekend, I've noticed the opening weekend, and I said
Starting point is 00:37:21 this on the show here a year ago. I go, get ready for that league to be totally black. They're heading, what they want is black owner. I thought if you go woke, you go broke, but apparently the NFL, I read an article, they have so much money that they can pretend that they're woke. They can appease both,
Starting point is 00:37:37 you know, that's why you have a Monday night football, the opening has, what's his name, the country singer, um, Stapleton. Chris Stapleton. Chris Stapleton and Snoop. So they balance it.
Starting point is 00:37:50 You got the woke and you got the rednecks. They're very good at marketing. But black coaches more and more of you, which is fine. Although you look at their record overall since every black coach, it's not good. But that's. And the reason it's all white owners is I think there's only three black billionaires in America. So you have to be a billionaire to own a team. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:15 Well, you can't give it to a guy that's got a hundred grand in the bank, sorry. I heard P. Diddy's taking a look at the Broncos. He might buy them, but. Jimmy, that's about all I got, man. I am tap, but you're always there for me. And whether it's in a comedy club and I'm dying and you're on the corner fucking laughing, well, we call you at the last second. You are a guy's guy. We fucking love you. And are you still with Tommy? Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Me too. A few more minutes. he's a little busy this guy
